This document is intended to form part of the licensing basis for a regulated facility or activity within the stated scope of the document. This regulatory document considers all licensing phases, as information from the design process feeds into the processes for reviewing an application for a licence to construct an NPP, and other licence applications. To a large degree, this regulatory document represents the CNSC's adoption of the principles set forth by the International Atomic Energy Agency in SSR-2/1, Safety of Nuclear Power Plants: Design as adapted to align with Canadian requirements. In addition, it implements recommendations from the CNSC Fukushima Task Force Report. An applicant or licensee may put forward a case to demonstrate that the intent of a requirement is addressed by other means and demonstrated with supportable evidence.ĭesign of Reactor Facilities: Nuclear Power Plants supersedes RD-337, which was published in 2008. To the extent practicable, the requirements and guidance provided herein are technology-neutral with respect to water-cooled reactors. All aspects of the design are taken into account, and multiple levels of defence are promoted in design considerations. This document provides criteria pertaining to the safe design of new water-cooled NPPs. It establishes a set of comprehensive design requirements and guidance that are risk-informed and align with accepted international codes and practices. REGDOC-2.5.2, Design of Reactor Facilities: Nuclear Power Plants, sets out requirements and guidance for new licence applications for water-cooled nuclear power plants (NPPs or plants). The full list of regulatory document series is included in the back of this document and can be found on the CNSC's website. This regulatory document is part of the CNSC's Physical Design series of regulatory documents, which also covers: design of uranium mines and mills design of fixed radiography installations design of nuclear substance laboratories and nuclear medicine rooms and exposure devices.
