Reactor Safety Arena Activities
In considering which areas of the reactor safety arena to target for greater
use of risk information, the staff of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC) examined the sources of risk, the existing regulatory processes, and
the best opportunities for improvements. On that basis, the staff divided
the reactor safety arena into four sub-arenas, each of which
benefits from risk-informed performance-based rulemaking, licensing, and
oversight activities. See the following links for the current objective,
basis, goals, and risk-informed and performance-based activities for each
sub-arena:
