  • 1. International Atomic Energy Agency, Department of Nuclear Safety and Security, Vienna (Austria)

Description

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Operational Safety Review Team (OSART): one of the most important safety peer review services offered by the IAEA to its Member States. The OSART programme aims to help countries strengthen the safety of their nuclear power plants during commissioning and operation by comparing actual practices with the IAEA Safety Standards. Since the first mission to Kori Nuclear Power Plant in the Republic of Korea in August 1983, the IAEA has carried out 218 OSART missions to 37 countries, providing objective and independent assessments of their operational safety performance.
