Guide to principal design criteria for nuclear fuel reprocessing facilities

Radiological safety criteria for nuclear fuel reprocessing facilities is provided by this standard. These criteria, intended for use in design, provide broad functional objectives that are generally applicable to all nuclear fuel reprocessing facilities and that are essential to the health and safety of plant personnel and of the general public. The licensing of nuclear fuel reprocessing facilities under 10 CRF requires that principal design criteria be developed and documented for each facility. The criteria presented in this standard are intended as guides in the preparation of these principal design criteria
