DOE-STD-0101-92, Compilation of Nuclear Safety Criteria Potential Application to DOE Nonreactor Facilities
Functional areas: Compilation, Nuclear Safety, Nonreactor Facilities, Criteria
This guide is a compilation and source list of nuclear safety criteria primarily used by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and private industry in commercial NNFs. Because the DOE , in some areas of NNF design, construction, operation, and decommissioning has taken the lead in developing NNF criteria, the guide also includes criteria used by the DOE and DOE contractors.

Section 2
This document compiles nuclear safety criteria applied to
the various areas of nuclear safety addressed in a Safety Analy-
sis Report for a nonreactor nuclear facility (NNF). The criteria
listed are derived from federal regulations, Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) guides and publications, DOE and DOE contractor
publications, and industry codes and standards. The titles of
the chapters and sections of Regulatory Guide 3.26, “Standard
Format and Content of Safety Analysis Reports for Fuel Reprocess-
ing Plants” were used to format the chapters and sections of this
compilation. In each section the criteria are compiled in four
groups, namely: (1) Code of Federal Regulations, (2) USNRC
Regulatory Guides, (3) Codes and Standards, and (4) Supplementary
Information.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
The Department of Energy (DOE) Order DOE 5480.5, “Safety
of Nuclear Facilities,” establishes nonreactor nuclear facility
(NNF) safety requirements to assure that NNFs are sited,
designed, constructed, modified, operated, maintained, and decom-
missioned in accordance with uniform standards, guides, and codes
which are consistent with those applied to comparable NRC-
licensed nonreactor nuclear facilities.
This document identifies nuclear safety criteria applied
to the areas of safety addressed in the Safety Analysis Report
for a NNF. The degree of application of these criteria to a DOE-
owned NNF should be determined by the DOE and DOE contractor.
1.1 PURPOSE
This guide is a compilation and source list of nuclear
safety criteria primarily used by the Nuclear Regulatory Commis-
sion (NRC) and private industry in commercial NNFs. Because the
DOE , in some areas of NNF design, construction, operation, and
decommissioning has taken the lead in developing NNF criteria,
the guide also includes criteria used by the DOE and DOE con-
tractors. Those criteria that are mandated by the DOE Orders
shall be used in the design, construction, operation, or decom-
missioning of DOE NNFs. The remaining nuclear safety criteria
listed in the guide should be evaluated by DOE and DOE con-
tractors for application to the DOE-owned NNFs under their cog-
nizance. The criteria listed are those that are applicable to
the specific areas of nuclear safety addressed in the Safety
Analysis Report of an associated NNF.
1.2 SOURCES OF CRITERIA AND FORMAT
The nuclear safety criteria identified in this guide are
derived from federal regulations, USNRC regulatory guides and
publications, DOE and DOE contractor publications, and industry
codes and standards.
To assure that this guide includes the areas of nuclear
safety addressed in a Safety Analysis Report, USNRC Regulatory
Guide 3.26, “Standard Format and Content of Safety Analysis
Reports for Fuel Reprocessing Plants,” is used as a model to
establish its fundamental format and content. To eliminate
excessive repetition, criteria are identified only in those
1-1
DOE-STD-101-92
subsections that
ple, even though
nuclear safety,
address the thrust of the criteria. As an exam-
quality assurance is applicable to all areas of
quality assurance criteria are only listed in
those sections that specifically pertain to quality assurance.
The criteria applicable to each subsection or area of safety are
presented in an outline format represented by the following four
subsections.
1.2.1 Code of Federal Regulations
Section 3
Generally, the criteria in this subsection are provided
in federal regulations from specific sections of Title 10 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR). In addition, other federal
regulations may be listed that are identified for application to
licensed NNFs.
Depending on the type of facility, the NRC licenses NNFs
under various Parts of 10 CFR. These Parts include the follow-
ing:
A. Part 50, “Domestic Licensing of Production and
Utilization Facilities.”
B. Part 60, “Disposal of High-Level Radioactive Waste
in Geologic Repositories.”
C. Part 61, “Licensing Requirements for Land Disposal
of Radioactive Waste.”
D. Part 70, “Domestic Licensing of Special Nuclear
Material.”
E. Part 72, “Licensing Requirements for the Independent
Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel and High-Level Radioactive Waste.”
1.2.2 Regulatory Guides
USNRC regulatory guides issued under Division 3, “Fuels
and Materials Facilities,” are primarily listed in this subsec-
tion. Regulatory guides from other divisions are also listed
when pertinent to the areas of safety addressed in the Safety
Analysis Report. The other divisions include the following:
A. Division 1, “Power Reactors.”
B. Division 4, “Environmental and Siting.”
C. Division 5, “Materials and Plant Protection.”
D. Division 8, “Occupational Health.”
1-2
DOE-STD-101-92
1.2.3 Codes and Standards
The industry codes and standards listed in this subsec-
tion are those endorsed by the NRC and those specified in DOE and
DOE contractor publications. In addition, appropriate industry
codes and standards are listed.
Many of the industry standards specified in the NRC
and/or DOE criteria have been revised, withdrawn or replaced by
more recent standards. Most of these obsolete standards are no
longer issued by their sponsoring organization and, therefore,
are not readily available for use. In most instances, revised
versions of obsolete standards are listed. These revised stan-
dards have generally incorporated supplemental requirements that
often qualified the NRC endorsement of the original standards.
1.2.4 Supplementary Information
This subsection lists documents referenced in both NRC
and DOE criteria that do not fall within one of the three preced-
ing groups of nuclear safety criteria. It includes appropriate
NRC Information Notices and Bulletins, NUREGs, guidance documents
specified in NRC and DOE criteria, DOE contractor publications,
and relevant industry reports and guides. Although these sources
do not always specify requirements, they provide interpretations
of the criteria and background information for consideration, as
well as methods specified by or considered acceptable to the NRC
and/or the DOE for implementing and satisfying the pertinent
criteria.
1.3 SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT CRITERIA

need, preparation, content, and revision of a Safety Analysis
Report (SAR). It also contains general criteria that are
