The or­gan­isa­tion re­quired to carry out de­com­mis­sion­ing must sub­mit the fol­low­ing doc­u­ments con­cern­ing the de­com­mis­sion­ing pro­ject:

a.

com­par­is­on of vari­ants for the dif­fer­ent stages, timetable for the de­com­mis­sion­ing op­er­a­tions and ex­pec­ted end status, in­clud­ing the reas­on for choice of vari­ant;

b.

de­scrip­tion of each step and re­quired fund­ing, i.e. de­term­in­a­tion of ra­di­olo­gic­al status of the in­stall­a­tion, dis­as­sembly, dis­mant­ling and de­con­tam­in­a­tion of in­stall­a­tions, de­con­tam­in­a­tion and de­moli­tion of build­ings;

c.

pro­ced­ure for sep­ar­at­ing ra­dio­act­ive from non-ra­dio­act­ive waste and man­age­ment of the ra­dio­act­ive waste;

d.

meas­ures to pro­tect per­son­nel against ra­di­ation and to pre­vent the re­lease of ra­dio­act­ive sub­stances in­to the en­vir­on­ment;

e.

se­cur­ity meas­ures;

f.

ac­ci­dent ana­lys­is, spe­cific­ally the iden­ti­fic­a­tion of po­ten­tial ac­ci­dents dur­ing de­com­mis­sion­ing, as­sess­ment of their fre­quency and ra­di­olo­gic­al im­pacts, as well as counter-meas­ures and any ne­ces­sary emer­gency pre­pared­ness meas­ures;

g.

evid­ence of avail­ab­il­ity of the re­quired num­ber of suit­able and qual­i­fied per­son­nel for ex­ecut­ing and su­per­vising de­com­mis­sion­ing op­er­a­tions, and of a suit­able or­gan­isa­tion­al struc­ture with clear al­loc­a­tion of re­spons­ib­il­it­ies;

h.

qual­ity man­age­ment pro­gramme;

i.

en­vir­on­ment­al im­pact re­port;

j.

sum­mary of all costs arising from the de­com­mis­sion­ing of the in­stall­a­tion, in­clud­ing those for the man­age­ment of ra­dio­act­ive and non-ra­dio­act­ive waste, and the se­cur­ing of the ne­ces­sary fin­an­cing.
