Work package 2, Scenario development and Performance Assessment - OPERA Safety Case for Radioactive waste disposal (OSCAR)

Description: Das Projekt "Work package 2, Scenario development and Performance Assessment - OPERA Safety Case for Radioactive waste disposal (OSCAR)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Nuclear Research and Consultancy Group durchgeführt. The proposed research will be carried out in interaction with the Safety Case Group. which is the group composed of national and international experts referred to in the Research Plan. The OSCAR project aims at 1) developing the structure of the OPERA Safety Case (OSC) and 2) defining the safety assessment framework. A Safety Case is a collection of arguments in support of the long-term safety of the repository. It comprises the findings of a safety assessment and a statement of confidence in these findings and it should acknowledge the existence of areas of uncertainty or of any unresolved issues and should provide guidance for work to resolve these issues in future development stages. At the earliest stages, the Safety Case will be based on the existing body of generic science and engineering with more and more site-specific research results entering the Safety Case as the design progresses towards a specific repository design. The OPERA Safety Case (OSC) will be a report presenting the generic Safety Case for the OPERA outline of a disposal in clay A . We propose to develop the OSC structure by evaluating the scope, structure, and argumentation of existing international Safety Cases, Safety Reports, and licence applications. We will identify those elements of existing Safety Cases that are best suited for the Dutch program and the OSC. To this end we established a consortium of international partners whose expertise covers the existing and proposed repository Safety Cases. The results of this part of our research will be recorded in two documents, one on the OSC structure and one on a structured method of presenting complex safety arguments, a component of the OSC. Key to the OSC is a safety assessment. The safety assessment framework defines the approach to quantifying the potential behaviour of a repository system. Some of the consortium partners have been at the cradle of the ISAM scheme, which is represented in the OPERA Research Plan, and which we propose to develop further to be used in OPERA. A component of the ISAM methodology is the identification and assessment of features, events and processes (FEPs) that may affect repository performance. This project will build on the ISAM methodology to develop a catalogue of OPERA-relevant FEPs. All consortium partners will contribute significantly to the OPERA FEP catalogue. The results of this part of our research will be recorded in two documents: the safety assessment methodology and the OPERA FEP catalogue.
