Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 decommission, vtto remove a nuclear facility safelyfrom service and reduce residual radioactivity to levels
23、 thatpermit release of the property or facility for unrestricted useand termination of any applicable license(s).3.1.2 decontamination, nthose activities employed to re-duce the levels of (radioactive) contamination in or on struc-tures, equipment, materials, and personnel.3.1.3 dismantlement, nthe
24、alternative in which the equip-ment, structures, and portions of a facility and site containingradioactive contaminants are removed or decontaminated to alevel that permits the property to be released for unrestricteduse shortly after cessation of operations.3.1.4 entombment, nconsists of placing th
25、e facility intoprotective storage. Initial entombment activities consist ofremoving the balance of plant contaminated components,systems, and structures from the site and sealing all theremaining contaminated and activated plant components andsystems within the entombment boundary. This structure pr
26、o-vides for containment of the entire radioactive inventoryremaining on site during the entombment period. Other initialactivities would consist of processing and removing radioac-tive waste, securing a possession-only license, and implement-ing security and surveillance plans for the delay period.D
27、ecommissioning is completed by either radioactive decay tounrestricted use levels or by dismantlement to unrestricted uselevels. If dismantlement were selected following entombment,additional activities would be initiated after 30 or more yearsand would consist of radiation surveys, removal of the e
28、ntomb-ment structure and materials within it, processing and removalof any remaining solid and liquid radioactive wastes, andrestoring/releasing the site for unrestricted use.3.1.5 nuclear facility, na facility whose operations in-volve (or involved) radioactive materials in such form orquantity tha
29、t a radiological hazard potentially exists to theemployees or the general public. Included are facilities that are(or were) used to produce, process, or store radioactivematerials. Some examples are nuclear reactors (power, test, orresearch), fuel fabrication plants, fuel reprocessing plants,uranium
30、/thorium mills, UF-6 production and enrichmentplants, radiochemical laboratories, and radioactive waste dis-posal sites.3.1.6 safe storage, nconsists of placing and maintainingthe facility in protective storage. Initial safe storage operationswould consist of general plant decontamination activities
31、,radiation surveys, the processing and removal of radioactivewaste materials, securing a possession-only license, and theimplementation of security, surveillance, and maintenanceplans for the delay period. Decommissioning is completed bydismantling following the protective storage period. The addi-t
32、ional activities initiated after 30 or more years would beessentially the same as those described for entombment, exceptthat there would be more systems removed after safe storagethan after entombment.4. Significance and Use4.1 The standardization of decommissioning plans willprovide the nuclear fac
33、ility owner with a greater assurance thatall basic planning elements and requirements have beenidentified, examined, and addressed.4.2 In applying the guidance contained in this standard, thenuclear facility owner will address the significant subject areasnecessary to describe a comprehensive decomm

Recent newguidance on all aspects of decommissioning is contained in anA
36、SME publication titled The Decommissioning Handbook.64.3 This decommissioning plan will be developed to serveas the executive document that describes the objectives of thedecommissioning program and identifies and defines the ele-ments necessary to accomplish the program.4.4 A detailed implementatio
37、n plan describing how theobjectives of the decommissioning plan will be met should beprepared. Some of the documents or implementation plans thatmay be required to support the overall decommissioningprogram include an engineering plan; a cost, schedule, andfinancing plan (10 CFR 140 and 170); a fiel
38、d implementationplan; a health and safety plan (29 CFR 1910.120, GuideE1167); a quality assurance plan (10 CFR 50.59 and 10 CFR830.120); an emergency plan; an environmental monitoringplan (Guide E1819); a radiological protection plan (10 CFR 20,10 CFR 835, Guide E1167); and a physical security plan
39、(10CFR 73). These implementation plans shall be separate fromand consistent with the decommissioning plan.5. Elements of the Decommissioning Plan5.1 The plan should identify and describe the major ele-ments of the decommissioning program. These elementsshould be addressed in their approximate chrono
40、logical orderand should be expanded to provide descriptive information anddetails.5.2 The following are provided as typical decommissioningelements for some types of nuclear facilities:5.2.1 Facility description,5.2.2 Operating history, and5.2.3 A description of the history of operation at the nucle
41、arfacility should be included to provide general information andan indication of the scope of effort required for decommission-ing. This description should include the initial construction andlicensing history, the operating record, and a summary of alloperating events that could affect decommission
42、ing activities(such as spills or releases of radioactive or contaminatedmaterials).6. Characterization6.1 A description of the entire nuclear facility to be decom-missioned should be provided including results of a radiationsurvey prior to initiation of other decommissioning activities.Site characte
43、ristics that should be addressed include topogra-phy, soils and geology, hydrology, seismology, demography,and meteorology. Specific details such as those found in safetyanalysis reports may be provided in appendices or by refer-ence. Plant characteristics that should be addressed include ageneral p
44、lant description, a plant structures description, and aplant systems description. Radiological and hazardous materialcharacteristics of the nuclear facility shall be included as well.The radionuclide inventory for the facility should be presentedwith all of the major contributors identified and quan
45、tified.Environmental radiological characteristics of the site should bediscussed. Guidance for developing the Characterization Planmay be found in the MARSSIM manual (NUREG-1575) andGuide E1893.7. Program Objectives7.1 The objective(s) of the decommissioning programshould be stated concisely. The se
46、lected or proposed decom-missioning alternative (dismantlement, safe storage followedby dismantlement, or entombment to unrestricted use levels)shall be included as a minimum (DOE Order 430.1B).7.2 A qualitative description of any interim status of thefacility should be provided when applicable, tha
47、t is, when thesafe storage or entombment alternatives are selected, and whena surveillance/maintenance period is proposed for the facility(DOE Guide G430.1-1, Guide E2420).7.3 Cleanup criteria should be stated herein, such as NRCRegulatory Guide 1.86, or other specific federal and staterequirements.
48、 Termination survey requirements should be asdetailed in 13.5.7.4 The interim and ultimate desired status of all facilitylicenses should be discussed. For facilities where the unre-stricted release criteria will be achieved without a planned andsignificant delay period, this should be stated. For th
49、is case, anongoing surveillance/maintenance program will not be neces-sary.8. Program Management and Administration8.1 The decommissioning plan should include a descriptionof the organization and responsibilities with respect to theoverall program. The discussion should address the decommis-sioning project team, decommissioning manpower; workerhealth and safety training (Specification E1034 and GuideE1168); and the use, control, and management of subcontrac-tors. When safe storage or entombment alternatives are se-lected, then the organization and responsibilities structure for
