8 SER Summary-CLA Barakah Units 1&2 2.5 Regulatory Body of the Country of Origin The UAE Nuclear Policy commitments call for the development of peaceful domestic nuclear power capability in partnership with the governments and firms of responsible nations, as well with the assistance of appropriate expert organizations. The design of the Barakah Units 1 and 2 is based on the design for the Shin-Kori Units 3 and 4 that is now under construction by Korea Hydro and Nuclear Power Co. (KHNP) in the Republic of Korea. The Korean Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology (MEST), the nuclear regulatory authority in Korea, has issued a construction permit for the Shin-Kori Units 3 and 4 based on the technical review performed by Korean Institute of Nuclear Safety (KINS). KINS was established as an independent expert organization supporting the nuclear regulatory framework in Korea to conduct nuclear safety regulation as entrusted by the Korean MEST in accordance with the Korean Atomic Energy Laws. Its major functions relevant to nuclear safety regulation are as follows: • Conduct safety reviews in relation to the licensing and approval of nuclear installations • Conduct regulatory inspections during manufacturing, construction, and operation of nuclear installations • Perform research and development of the technical standards of safety regulation for nuclear installations • Conduct licence examinations for the handling of nuclear materials and radioisotopes, and the operation of nuclear installations • Receive and process notifications relevant to licensing formalities • Conduct quality assurance examination and inspection In line with the nuclear policy commitment mentioned above, and to facilitate the use of safety information from the reference plant in Korea, FANR has established agreements with KINS. The initial “Implementing Agreement between FANR and KINS for the Exchange of Technical Information and Cooperation in Nuclear Safety and Radiation Protection Matters,” signed May 25, 2010, was followed by the technical cooperation agreement “Special Agreement between the Federal Authority for Nuclear Regulation and the Korea Institute of Nuclear Safety for the Exchange of Technical Information and Cooperation in Nuclear Safety and Radiation Protection Matters,” signed July 22, 2010. The agreement provides for exchanges of technical information, as well as training and staff exchanges. In October 2011, the newly established Nuclear Safety and Security Commission (NSSC) replaced MEST as dedicated regulatory body in Korea responsible for safety, nuclear security, and safeguards. In undertaking the review and assessment of the construction licence application, FANR utilized where appropriate the safety evaluations performed by KINS for the Reference plants in Korea (Shin-Kori Units 3 and 4), together with on-going exchanges of technical information. FANR’s objective in doing so has been two-fold: to enhance safety through
