48、.1-14Commentaryon N286-12,Managementsystem requirementsfor nuclear facilities0 Introduction0.1 BackgroundCSA N286 identifies management system requirements for nuclear facilities including uranium mines andmills, uranium processing and fuel manufacturing facilities, high energy reactor facilities, r

49、esearch andisotope processing facilities, and radioactive waste management facilities. During the development ofCSA N286,the authors considered other management system standards for health, safety, environment,security, economics and quality (see Annex A). CSA N286 integrates these requirements and enablesusers to develop an integrated management system if appropriate for the business.The integration of management system requirements for health, safety, environment, security,economics and quality may help reduce or eliminate duplication of management system
