Final repository for radioactive waste and spent nuclear fuel
One of the duties of the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority is to review the final disposal applications submitted to the Authority by Svensk Kärnbränslehantering AB (SKB). We review the applications with reference to the Swedish Act on Nuclear Activities and against our regulations, and issue pronouncements to the Swedish Government, which then makes licensing decisions.

2009:15 Improvement and Validation of Weld Residual Stress Modelling Procedure
Weld residual stresses have a large influence on the behavior of cracks growing under normal operation loads and on the leakage-flow from a through-wall crack. Accurate prediction of these events is important in order to arrive at proper conclusions when assessing detected flaws, for inspection planning and for assessment of leak-before-break margins. Therefore, it is very important to have...

2010:16 Guidance to Risk-Informed Evaluation of Technical Specifications using PSA
No guidance documents for risk-informed analysis and assessment of changes in Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCO:s) in TS (Technical Specifications) have been available in the Nordic countries. In the U.S. several guidance documents, primarily developed by the owners groups for PWRs and BWRs, exist. Guidance for analysis of TS changes in this report generally follows the U.S. Regulatory...
