Describes differences in post-accident situations compared with normal decommissioning (i.e. decommissioning after a planned final shutdown) and identifies significant decision factors as applicable. This publication focuses on the on-site decommissioning aspects of a technical nature, which need to be addressed after a nuclear accident.

The transport of radioactive material is an essential activity worldwide. This publication is the latest edition of the IAEA Safety Requirements for the Safe Transport of Radioactive Material. It is supported by six IAEA Safety Guides which provide explanation and guidance for the SSR-6 requirements to facilitate harmonized implementation.

Assists states in bridging the gap between existing government and industry standards on information security, the particular concepts and considerations that apply to nuclear security, and the special provisions and conditions that exist when dealing with nuclear material and other radioactive material.

Establishes a basis for safety and for safety assessment at all stages in the lifetime of nuclear fuel cycle facilities. A broad scope of requirements is established for site evaluation, design, construction, commissioning, operation and preparation for decommissioning that must be satisfied to ensure safety.
