Measures of safeguards risk employing PRA (MOSREP): a methodology for estimating risk impacts of safeguards measures

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6500857

This report presents a method called Measures of Safeguards Risk Employing PRA (MOSREP) which was developed to systematically evaluate the desirability of sabotage vulnerability reduction measures. The method has been specifically designed to be a starting point for resolving Generic Issue A-29. MOSREP has been designed to provide a technical basis for regulatory actions involving design changes, damage control measures, physical protection measures, and other safeguards measures aimed at reducing vulnerability to sabotage, vandalism, and tampering at nuclear power plants. It is the intent of MOSREP to provide support to the NRC staff in determining effective regulatory strategies and evaluating trade-offs associated with activities which impact both safeguards and safety.
