the plant can operate safely with the necessary reliability for the full duration of its design<br />

life, with accident prevention and protection of site personnel, the public and the<br />

environment as prime objectives.<br />

The design management shall ensure that the requirements of the operat<strong>in</strong>g organization<br />

are met, and that due account is given to the capabilities and limitations of the personnel<br />

who will eventually operate the plant. The design organization shall supply adequate<br />

safety design <strong>in</strong>formation to ensure safe operation and ma<strong>in</strong>tenance of the plant and to<br />

allow subsequent plant modifications to be made, and recommended practices for<br />

<strong>in</strong>corporation <strong>in</strong>to the plant adm<strong>in</strong>istrative and operational procedures (i.e. operational<br />

limits and conditions).<br />

The design management shall take account of the results of the determ<strong>in</strong>istic and<br />

complementary probabilistic safety analyses, so that an iterative process takes place by<br />

means of which it shall be ensured that due consideration has been given to the<br />

prevention of accidents and mitigation of their consequences.<br />

The design management shall ensure that the generation of radioactive waste is kept to<br />

the m<strong>in</strong>imum practicable, <strong>in</strong> terms of both activity and volume, by appropriate design<br />

measures and operational and decommission<strong>in</strong>g practices.<br />

Wherever possible, structures, systems and components important to safety shall be<br />

designed accord<strong>in</strong>g to the latest or currently applicable approved standards; shall be of a<br />

design proven <strong>in</strong> previous equivalent applications; and shall be selected to be consistent<br />

with the plant reliability goals necessary for safety.<br />
