Basic Safety Principles for Nuclear Power Plants
The present report is a revision of Safety Series No. 75-INSAG-3 (1988), updating the statements made on the objectives and principles of safe design and operation for electricity generating nuclear power plants. It includes the improvements made in the safety of operating nuclear power plants and identifies the principles underlying the best current safety policies to be applied in future plants. It presents INSAG's understanding of the principles underlying the best current safety policies and practices of the nuclear power industry.
Key Practical Issues in Strengthening Safety Culture
Discusses key issues in safety culture and practical matters such as the assessment of personal contributions to the enhancement of safety culture. It complements Safety Series No. 75-INSAG-4, Safety Culture (1991) and INSAG Series No. 13, Management of Operational Safety in Nuclear Power Plants.
Safety Culture
This report by the IAEA's International Nuclear Safety Advisory Group INSAG describes the concept of 'Safety Culture' in connection with nuclear plant safety in relation to both organi- zations and individuals engaged in nuclear power activities. It provides a basis for judging the effectiveness of the safety culture in specific cases in order to identify potential improvements.
Maintaining the Design Integrity of Nuclear Installations Throughout Their Operating Life
This INSAG report discusses the problem of maintaining the integrity of the design of a nuclear power plant over its entire lifetime in order to achieve a continuous high level of safety. The purpose of this report is to identify the issues and some of the principles that should be addressed, discuss some of the solutions to the problem and define the specific responsibilities of designers, operators and regulators.
The Chernobyl Accident
The INIS Reference Series defines the rules, standards, formats, codes and authority lists on which the International Nuclear Information System is based. Over the years most manuals have been revised or merged, and further revisions will be issued in the future. The series consists of 10 current manuals, all of which are available in print, on microfiche and many in electronic form, as described below. The Thesaurus gives the Spanish translation of the controlled vocabulary to be used by INIS members to index the literature they report to INIS. This authority ensures consistent subject indexing. Revision 32 of the Spanish version contains 19 422 accepted terms (descriptors) and 6065 forbidden terms (non-descriptors). The terms are listed alphabetically in Spanish, followed by the English equivalent, and with each alphabetic entry a 'word block' containing all the terms associated with that particular entry is displayed.
The Safety of Nuclear Power
Gives an account of the history of nuclear power plant safety, covering the important elements from safety in the earliest days to lessons learned from accidents and current reactor safety principles. The report concentrates on light and heavy water moderated reactors, by far the most prevalent types.
Occupational Radiation Protection in the Uranium Mining and Processing Industry
This Safety Report has been developed as part of the IAEA programme on occupational radiation protection to provide for the application of its safety standards in implementing a graded approach to the protection of workers against exposures associated with uranium mining and processing. The publication describes the methods of production associated with the uranium industry and provides practical information on the radiological risks to workers in the exploration, mining and processing of uranium. It is a compilation of detailed information on uranium mining and processing stages and techniques, general radiation protection considerations in the relevant industry, general methodologies applicable for control, monitoring and dose assessment, exposure pathways, and radiation protection programmes for a range of commonly used mining and processing techniques.
Potential Exposure in Nuclear Safety
The present report deals with the concept of potential exposure in nuclear and radiation safety, discussing policy aspects, safety assessments, risk considerations and probabilities.
