Swedish nuclear safety program
Description
The primary objectives of the Swedish Reactor Safety Program are summarized. The corresponding safety efforts by the nuclear utilities and the Swedish Nuclear Power Inspectorate (SKI) are described. The program on prevention includes recurrent safety reviews of each plant every eight to ten years (the ASAR program). Plant-specific level 1 PSA:s are required as a part of the ASAR program. The program on accident management and consequence mitigation includes improved protection of weak spots in some containments against direct attach of core melt, additional means of supply water to containment sprays and filtered venting of containments. Installation of appropriate equipment and development of appropriate emergency operating procedures shall be completed by the end of 1988. Finally, Swedish emergency planning is briefly described
