Description
Integrated safeguards are being implemented in Ukraine since 2012. Integrated safeguards are the optimum combination of all safeguards measures available to the IAEA under Comprehensive Safeguards Agreement and Additional Protocol to achieve maximum effectiveness and efficiency in meeting the safeguards obligation within available resources. The implementation of integrated safeguards has provided both advantages and disadvantages for Ukraine. It will be discussed.
The concept of unannounced inspections under the integrated safeguards compared to traditional safeguards is the one of the major issues. The use of unannounced inspections, i.e. inspections for which no advance notification regarding inspection activities or location in accordance with paragraph 84 of Safeguards agreement. Ukrainian state inspectors organize and take part in each IAEA inspection and complementary access. Analysis of the quantity and type of IAEA inspections and complementary accesses will be made. Also, a short presentation of software for support of IAEA inspections will be made.
After due consideration of the LOF`s information, the results of last inspections carried out and non-nuclear use of the depleted uranium, State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate of Ukraine decided to send to IAEA the exemption requests for nuclear material of LOF`s according to Article 36(b) of the Safeguards Agreement.
In conclusion, the development and building of a strong and effective SSAC is never completed. Our plans of SSAC development (legislation, training activities) will be presented.
