Revew Procedures
RADIATINo PRoTEoN PROGRAM AND WASTE MANAGEMENT
The reviewer should understand and evaluate how the radioactive waste
management program fits into the ficility's overall management structure, how
such wastes are identified and segregated effectively, how the management and
radiation protection organization will ensure that radioactive wastes are
continuously controlled from formation to ultimate safe disposal, and what
organizational entities are assigned responsibilities in the radioactive waste
management program. The reviewer should compare the program under review
with programs at other similar facilities that have been approved by NRC.
Evaluafion Findings
This section of the SAR should contain sufficient information to support the
following types of conclusions, which will be included in the staffs safety
evaluation report:
* The applicant has described in the SAR the design of the program to
manage radioactive wastes in sufficient detail to conclude that
- the applicant has developed the bases for a complete and effective
program,
- the program includes review, audit, and assessment provisions, and
- the program complies with all applicable regulations.
* The description of the waste management program gives reasonable
assurance that radioactive wastes will not escape the control of the facility
and will not pose a risk of undue radiation exposure to the facility stafl the
environment, or the public. ;
11.2.2 Radioactive Waste Controls
Areas of Revew
The reviewer should evaluate the radioactive waste control plans' at the facility to
determine if the plans address all of the factors discussed in the format and content
guide related to maintaining control of such wastes from initial formation to
ultiuate disposition. Acceptable control should include-methods to decrease and
eventually minimize the formation of radioactive wastes.
