scope:

The safety requirements applicable to fuel cycle facilities (i.e. facilities for uranium ore processing and refining, conversion, enrichment, fabrication of fuel (including mixed oxide fuel), storage and reprocessing of spent fuel, associated conditioning and storage of waste, and facilities for the related research and development) are established in Ref. [1]. The requirements applicable specifically to uranium fuel fabrication facilities are established in Appendix I of Ref. [1]. This Safety Guide provides recommendations on meeting the requirements established in Sections 5-10 and in Appendix I of Ref. [1].
