  • Movement of Radioactive Material Sellafield Site
    Proceedings of the 18th International Symposium on the Packaging and Transportation of Radioactive Materials PATRAM 2016 September 18-23, 2016, Kobe, Japan Paper No. 3034 Movement of Radioactive Material Sellafield Site Maz Hussain Sellafield Ltd., United Kingdom. Abstract Background The UK nuclear decommissioning priority is to reduce risk and hazard and to deliver the clean-up mission cost effectively. This is particularly relevant at Sellafield where the Legacy Ponds and Silos pose the most significant challenges. The availability of safe packaging for the movement and storage on the Sellafield site is a key enabler to meet the NDA mission for safe interim storage ahead of its subsequent treatment, packaging and final storage to a Geologic Disposal Facility (GDF). There are a significant number of packages and package design types operating on the Sellafield site. Some packages are licensed to the IAEA regulations for safe transport and others comply only with the Sellafield site specific requirements. Introduction Packages to and from the Sellafield site need to comply with the IAEA regulations for safe transport and must meet the Sellafield site requirements. However, the IAEA regulations do not apply to packages within a licensed site. For on-site safe package operations compliance is required against Sellafield site specific procedures, standards and guidance. Package Management System There are a significant number and types of package transfers routinely undertaken safely on the Sellafield site. The packages range from small (18Kg) hand held sample castles to large complex (100Te) packages some with in-built gamma gates, mechanical interlocks and hoisting drive mechanisms. The Sellafield Package Management System (SPMS) efficiently manages package operations and includes for asset register, package tracking, operational history and maintenance.

  • APR1400 Chapter 12, "Radiation Protection," Final Safety Evaluation Report
    12 RADIATION PROTECTION Chapter 12, “Radiation Protection,” of this safety evaluation report (SER) describes the results of the review by the staff of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), hereinafter referred to as the staff, of the Design Control Document (DCD), for the design certification (DC) of the Advanced Power Reactor 1400 (APR1400), submitted by Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) and Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co., Ltd (KHNP), hereinafter referred to as the applicant. This chapter also provides information on facility and equipment design and programs used to meet the radiation protection standards of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Part 20, “Standards for Protection Against Radiation,” Part 50, “Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities,” and Part 70, “Domestic Licensing of Special Nuclear Material.” The staff evaluated the information in Chapter 12, “Radiation Protection,” of the APR1400 DCD against the guidance in NUREG-0800, “Standard Review Plan for the Review of Safety Analysis Reports for Nuclear Power Plants: LWR Edition” (hereafter referred to as the SRP), Chapter 12, “Radiation Protection.” Compliance with these criteria provides assurance that doses to workers will be maintained within the occupational dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20, “Standards for Protection Against Radiation.” These occupational dose limits, applicable to workers at NRC- licensed facilities, restrict the sum of the external whole-body dose (deep-dose equivalent) and the committed effective equivalent doses resulting from radioactive material deposited inside the body (deposited through injection, absorption, ingestion, or inhalation) to 50 millisievert (mSv) (5 roentgen equivalent man [rem]) per year with a provision (i.e., by planned special exposure) to extend this dose to 100 mSv (10 rem) per year with a lifetime dose limit of 250 mSv (25 rem) resulting from planned special exposures.
