Section
3.c.
Added. Nuclear Reactor Safety Design Criteria.
Nuclear reactors are an important class
of DOE facilities that require special
attention to design criteria and
standards to ensure safe design and
operations.
(1) The Code of Record for existing
DOE nuclear reactors has been
established by their designs. When
a major modification is made to an
existing reactor, the existing Code
of Record is the starting point for
the design of the major
modification, and a design upgrade
analysis is required in accordance
with DOE-STD-1189-2016 to
evaluate the application of nuclear
safety design criteria and
requirements. This design upgrade
analysis may identify updated
nuclear reactor safety design
criteria and updated codes and
standards to be applied to the major
modification.
(2) For any new DOE nuclear reactor,
a set of reactor-specific safety
DOE O 420.1C
Page Paragraph Changed To
design criteria and a set of reactor
design codes and standards must be
established in accordance with the
Safety Design Strategy required by
DOE-STD-1189-2016. Existing
industry codes and standards
should be used to the extent
possible.
