Application Summary AI generated

This standard specifies the nuclear criticality safety criteria for handling, storing, and transporting light water reactor (LWR) fuel assemblies outside of a reactor core. It is applied in nuclear fuel cycle facilities, such as spent fuel pools, dry storage casks, and transport containers, to prevent accidental criticality events. The standard ensures safe spacing, moderation control, and neutron absorption measures during all off-reactor fuel movements.
