Regulatory body approval of EOPs

Approval of EOPs by the nuclear power plant management is normally attained through the nuclear power plant s administratively controlled procedure approval process. 

The role of the regulatory body in the review and approval (if required) of EOPs was discussed in Section 3.1.5. However, it should be repeated that early involvement and open discussions with the regulatory body from the beginning of the project will smooth the progress of the entire licensing process. Regulatory body approval is typically a sequential activity  

This sequence of steps may be repeated more than once.
