Objectives of the review

This section provides guidance for an independent review of the development and implementation programme for one particular plant, including a partial review of the technical correctness of the EOPs. This section also describes activities that should be carried out during the review so that both the review team and the plant being reviewed will understand the objectives of the review and the review process itself 

The review can be scheduled either during the development or the implementation process of the EOP programme. The aim may be the review of an existing set of EOPs to identify deficiencies and issue recommendations for a successful completion of the programme, or for providing recommendations for the improvement of the EOPs. Although the guidance is written primarily for external review, many elements can also be used for internal review in the framework of a self-assessment process. 

The typical duration of an external review is one week. During this period of time it is impossible to review aU aspects of the EOP development programme and/or aU documentation in detail. Therefore, the review should be focused on specific areas of the EOP programme. For example, the review may be oriented towards either administrative or technical aspects of the programme. While the administrative review wiU be mainly focused on a review of the development/implementation process and the QA and methodology used, the technical review will concentrate more on the 

Review objectives generally involve verification of the adequacy of the entire EOF development and implementation programme and an in-depth review of one or more particular topics of the development and implementation programme. Topics for an in-depth review may be chosen from Sections 2 and 3 above or may be tailored to optimally respond to specific needs of the host organization.

The details of the reform and the large number of legislative changes introduced in relation to medicines for human use are beyond the scope of this chapter. However, the key objectives of the review of EU medicines legislation and reform of the regulatory regime can be summarised as follows ... 

This brief introduction demonstrates that the relationships between diet and health are far from simple and most certainly far from fully understood, but for a critical and detailed review of epidemiological data the reader is referred to an excellent paper by Arts and Hollman. The objective of the review that follows is to record recent changes in the perceived role of flavonoids as health-promoting dietary antioxidants and place these... 

Processes and functional requirements must be reviewed before issue to the design consultant. The objective of the review, or in some cases multiple reviews, shall be to ensure that processes and functions have been completely and accurately defined, and that performance criteria are unambiguous. Reviews must also determine the consequence of function failure that is, the risk to the research study, manufacturing process, and safety and regulatory compliance. These consequences must be documented so that the delivered solution is appropriate to the business risk, i.e., the design must be relevant to the operating context of the asset. 

The tender was awarded to a consortium of Cameron McKenna and Arthur Anderson. The general objectives of the review were stated as being to provide answers to the following questions. 

The objective of the review and subsequent report (Ref. 6) was to provide the reactor designers and other organizations with interest in future electric power generating options with an independent evaluation of the conceptual GT-MHR design from the viewpoint of potential owner/operators. The review focused on the PCS. Two paragraphs from the summary are reproduced below from their report. 

The 14 PSR safety factors and the global assessment are defined and explained in the following subsections. The objective of the review of each... 

The objective of the review of the design of the nuclear power plant is to determine the adequacy of the design and its documentation in an assessment against current international standards and practices. (The term nuclear power plant includes all SSCs on the site, as stated in para. 3.1.)... 

The objective of the review is to determine the actual condition of SSCs important to safety and whether it is adequate for them to meet their design requirements. In addition, the review should confirm that the condition of SSCs is properly documented. 

The objective of the review is to determine whether ageing in a nuclear power plant is being effectively managed so that required safety functions are maintained, and whether an effective ageing management programme is in place for future plant operation. 

The objective of the review of the deterministic safety analysis is to determine to what extent the existing deterministic safety analysis remains valid when the following aspects have been taken into account actual plant design the actual condition of SSCs and their predicted state at the end of the period covered by the PSR current deterministic methods and current safety standards and knowledge. In addition, the review should also identify any weaknesses relating to the application of the defence in depth concept. 

The objective of the review of safety performance is to determine the safety performance of the nuclear power plant and its trends from records of operating experience. 

The objective of the review of experience from other plants and research findings is to determine whether there is adequate feedback of safety experience from other nuclear power plants and of the findings of research. 

The objective of the review of organization and administration is to determine whether the organization and administration are adequate for the safe operation of the nuclear power plant. 

The examination of physical and chemical properties of pectic polysaccharides, extracted from fruits, peels of the fraits has an important area since pectin is extensively used in industries, particularly in frait processing sector. The objective of the review... 

Review and assessment of the information submitted by the operating organization in support of its licence application shall be performed by the regulatory body to determine whether the proposed facility can be sited, constructed, commissioned, operated, utilized, modified and decommissioned without undue radiological risk to the site personnel, the general public and the environment. Within this overall objective, specific objectives of the review and assessment are ...
