Adoption of a risk-informed, performance-based framework to nuclear regulatory activities, as opposed to adherence to traditional regulatory paradigms, may be a critical step towards unleashing nuclear energy innovation in the U.S. and facilitating progress in the many advanced, non-LWR technologies presently in development. There are practices currently in place that can serve as a template for expanded application and implementation of risk-informed, performance-based regulation, ultimately allowing the nuclear industry greater leeway in meeting objective safety criteria.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"document-view-image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02590.JPG\" data-lightbox=\"image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/_thumbs\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02590.JPG\" width=\"225\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a class=\"document-view-image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02608.JPG\" data-lightbox=\"image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/_thumbs\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02608.JPG\" width=\"225\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a class=\"document-view-image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02609.JPG\" data-lightbox=\"image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/_thumbs\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02609.JPG\" width=\"225\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a class=\"document-view-image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02610.JPG\" data-lightbox=\"image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/_thumbs\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02610.JPG\" width=\"225\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a class=\"document-view-image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02628.JPG\" data-lightbox=\"image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/_thumbs\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02628.JPG\" width=\"225\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a class=\"document-view-image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02629.JPG\" data-lightbox=\"image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thegabi.com\/upload\/_thumbs\/nuclear\/roundtable\/056\/DSC02629.JPG\" width=\"225\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Conventional prescriptive regulatory approaches to nuclear safety, while effective in managing the current light-water reactor fleet, fail to adequately regard and consider the innovative capabilities of next-generation advanced reactor designs.
