Original abstract

This paper presents main IAEA activities for safe long term operation (LTO) which includes establishment of IAEA Safety Standards and other LTO related documents, fostering information exchange and establishing databases and provision of SALTO (Safety Aspects of Long Term Operation) peer review service. This paper provides insights into IAEA SALTO peer review service objectives, scope and methodology. The SALTO peer review service was designed to assist nuclear power plant (NPP) operators in adopting a proper approach to LTO of their plants and in implementing complete and appropriate activities to ensure that plant safety will be maintained during the LTO period. The SALTO peer review service can also support regulators in establishing or improving regulatory and licensing strategies for LTO of NPPs. Issues derived from 19 SALTO missions and 2 LTO modules of OSART (Operational Safety Review Team) missions conducted during the period of 2005 to March 2014 are also analysed in this paper.

Czech abstract

Tento dokument představuje hlavní činnosti MAAE pro bezpečný dlouhodobý provoz (LTO), coz zahrnuje zřízení bezpečnostních standardů MAAE a dalších dokumentů souvisejících s LTO, posíleni výměny informací a vytváření databází a poskytování SALTO (bezpečnostní aspekty dlouhodobeho provozu) peer review service. Tento článek poskytuje vhled do cíle vzájemného hodnocení služeb, rozsah a metodiku MAAE SALTO. Peer review service SALTO byl navržen tak, aby pomohl provozovatelům jaderných elektráren v přijetí správného přístupu k LTO svých provozů a při realizaci kompletní a vhodné činnosti k zajištění toho, aby bezpečnost zařízení byla zachována po dobu LTO. Peer review service SALTO peer může také podporovat regulační orgány při založení nebo zlepšení regulační a licenční strategie pro LTO jaderných elektráren. Problémy odvozené z 19 SALTO misí a 2 LTO modulů OSART misi (Operational Safety Review Team) provedenych v období 2005 až března 2014 jsou také analyzovány v tomto dokumentu.
