  2. Key Technical Elements for Long-Term Safety Assurance • Regulatory Body and Safety Standards. • Technical Competence in Operating Organisation, Regulatory Body and Technical Support Organisations. • Vendor Support IAEA Workshop on Evaluation Methodology for Nuclear Power Infrastructure Development, 10-12 December 2008, Vienna

  3. Developing Regulatory Body (RB) and Safety Standards (SS) • Form a RB with a small core group, supplemented by Safety and Advisory Committees. • Use available International SS; Develop National SS after some experience. • Design certification of NPP by RB of Vendor Country. Examine site specific issues and novel design features. • Progressively expand RB by inducting experienced personnel from Operating and Technical Support Organizations. IAEA Workshop on Evaluation Methodology for Nuclear Power Infrastructure Development, 10-12 December 2008, Vienna

  4. Building Technical Competence • Training of O&M staff, Regulators and Technical Support Personnel in NPP of similar design and in RB and TSO of Vendor Country. • Direct involvement in preparation of O&M documents, equipment erection and commissioning. • Progressively develop In-house R&D and Analysis Capabilities with long-term operation and future expansion in view IAEA Workshop on Evaluation Methodology for Nuclear Power Infrastructure Development, 10-12 December 2008, Vienna

  5. Vendor Support • Though Safety is National responsibility, moral responsibility rests with vendor. • Vendor’s Safety Culture will strongly influence safety culture of new entrant. • Strong, Proactive and Long-Term support from Vendor is crucial for ensuring safety and for success of programme. • Training of personnel, technology transfer, oversight during initial operation. IAEA Workshop on Evaluation Methodology for Nuclear Power Infrastructure Development, 10-12 December 2008, Vienna

  6. Harmonization of Vendor Support • Vendor’s Bid to include details of all elements of technical support and the time frame involved. • Evaluation of vendor support programme against a Template to be developed by IAEA. • Evaluation of success of vendor support programme at important stages e.g. Before Initial Fuel Loading. • Arrangement between New Entrant’s and Vendor’s country for training in specific areas e.g. Regulatory Aspects.
