NUREG-1537, Part 2 - NRC

EXPERDm4TAL FACIaTES AND UTiLIZATnoN
* experiment design requirements and classification methodology
administrative controls, including appropriate review and approval of safety
analysis in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 for experiments not included in
the SAR.'
* allowed and possible capsule materi experimental materials, and
structural composition and types
* radiation heating and other radiation damage
* malfunction or failure modes of experimental facilities and axperiments,
including radiological hazards and controls
Accepance Criteria
The acceptance criteria for the infoimation on experunent review include the
following:
* The experiment safety review committee should consist of individuals with
extensive experience in reactor operations, radiation protection, conduct of
experiments, and the mechanical, electrical, radiological, and chemical
behavior of materials in theoperational environment A functional
organization chart should be provided showing in detail the composition
and lines of communication of the committee with the reactor operations
and administration staffs. The committee should be organizationally
independent and operate without interference from the aexrimenters or
reactor operations staff. The committee should function under a charter,
and criteria for expeiment approval should be provided, including
application of 10 CFR 50.59.
* The applicant should describe the methodology that will be used to
categorize proposed experiments according to risk potential. The types of
categories used at the reactor facifity should be stated and requirements for
each category listed. The appropriate level of review authority required to
approve experiments in each category should be discussed. The
information in this section of the SAR should be quantitative where
possible (e.g., giving gram amounts, temperature degree limits,
radioactivity limits, or reactivity limits) in delineating the bounds of the risk
categories.. Methodology for using 10 CFR 50.59 to review all new
experiments should be described, as well as how Regulatory Guides 2.2
and 2.4 are usid.,
