CONTENT GUIDANCE FOR SECTIONS OF CHAPTER 16

16.1 INTRODUCTION

This section provides an introduction to the contents of this chapter based on the

graded approach and includes objectives and scope specific to the chapter as

developed.

16.2 REQUIREMENTS

This section lists the design codes, standards, regulations, and DOE Orders that are

required for establishing the safety basis of the facility. The intent is to provide

only the requirements that are specific for this chapter and pertinent to the safety

analysis, and not a comprehensive listing of all industrial standards or codes or

criteria. SRIDs may be referenced as appropriate.

16.3 DESCRIPTION OF CONCEPTUAL PLANS

This section summarizes conceptual plans for D&D. This summary documents

that planning of operations and design or modifications minimizes the potential for

spread of contamination that would complicate or reduce effectiveness of future

D&D or environmental restoration activities. Assessment of future D&D activities

must be based on an evaluation of the type and magnitude of hazards and the

complexity of processes. The evaluation considers the vulnerabilities to normal

and abnormal events and operational plans to minimize contamination and prevent

an increase in residual risk during or after decommissioning in a manner similar to

the hazard analysis described in Section 3.3, "Hazard Analysis." The evaluation,

however, is conceptual in nature and does not require the extent of documentation

required of a DSA hazard analysis.

The description of design features to facilitate D&D operations is limited to major

modifications of existing facilities.
