AECB (Atomic Energy Control Board, Ottawa, Ontario) Compliance Procedures for Nuclear Power Plants

摘要

This paper describes briefly the process by which the Atomic Energy Control Board (AECB) gains assurance that a nuclear power plant is operated safely. The AECB has project officers located at each nuclear power plant to do the necessary inspections. Their methods include regular physical inspection, review of licensee internal documents, and scrutiny of reports to the AECB. Corrective or follow-up action may be communicated orally, by written requests, or by generic requests where similar actions may be required at a number of plants. (Atomindex citation 14:762378)
