Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

Nuclear criticality safety training at U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)-licensed fuel fabrication facilities is based on performance. The training is intended to create an atmosphere where informed and educated employees are confident they can perform their job duties and at the same time prevent an accidental nuclear criticality. The purpose of this paper is to report the results of a recently conducted survey among NRC licensees concerning criticality safety training. The survey was conducted among nine major NRC-licensed fuel fabrication facilities representing seven different companies.
