Quality assurance for the IAEA inspection planning process

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5235404
Under the provisions of the Treaty on Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, the International Atomic Energy Agency inspects over 400 nuclear facilities each year to confirm that their operation is consistent with peaceful uses of nuclear materials. Successful implementation of the inspections depends upon planning for verification activities such as comparisons of records and reports, measurements of material inventories, and employment of containment/surveillance methods. This report describes the Agency's inspection planning process, including administrative, technical, and management aspects, and suggests methods for applying quality assurance procedures to maintain the quality of that process.
