Report of State Surveillance over Nuclear Safety, Czechoslovak Atomic Energy Commission, on a complex assessment of nuclear safety of the V-1 nuclear power plant

The results of Czechoslovak and foreign experts' assessments of nuclear safety of the V-1 nuclear power plant in Jaslovske Bohunice are summarized. Based on them, it was decided that in its present condition the plant would be operated till the end of 1991. A detailed outline is given of provisions for increasing nuclear safety of this power plant that must be met for the plant to be permitted to continue its operation till the end of 1992. If the reconstruction of the two units is complete, the power plant will be operated till the end of 1995. After this time limit, continued operation of the plant will only be permitted provided that the next stage of reconstruction brings its nuclear safety to the European standard. (Z.M.)
