The purpose of this appendix is to provide a consistent approach for establishing the hazard category for a nuclear facility as required in 10 CFR 830, Nuclear Safety Management, Subpart B, "Safety Basis Requirements," Section 202 (b)(3). As defined, this approach is consistent with DOE-STD-1027-92 Change Notice No. 1, Hazard Categorization and Accident Analysis Techniques for Compliance with DOE Order 5480.23, Nuclear Safety Analysis Reports (hereafter DOE-STD-1027-92), and facilitates the use of updated dosimetry and release fractions as provided in NNSA SD G 1027 Admin Change 1, Guidance on Using Release Fraction and Modern Dosimetric Information Consistently with DOE STD 1027-92, Hazard Categorization and Accident Analysis Techniques for Compliance with DOE Order 5480.23, Nuclear Safety Analysis Reports, Change Notice No. 1 (hereafter NNSA SD G 1027).
