1245 App C5 Non-Power Production and Utilization Facility Inspector Individual Study Activities
Issue Date: 09/22/25 3
1245 App C5 (ISA-NPUF-1) Overview of Standards and Regulatory Guides PURPOSE:
The purpose of this activity is to familiarize the inspector with non-power reactor and utilization facilities (NPUFs) various standards and regulatory guides (RGs) for inspection activities of licensees. These sections collectively form the framework for how NRC licensees must manage radiation safety to protect workers and the public.
Inspectors routinely evaluate and review a variety of documents as they pertain to specific facilities to support their inspection activities. Often, the inspector will find situations where regulations, standards, and RGs can provide useful guidance to successfully perform your assigned responsibilities. This ISA will acquaint you with common NPUF regulations, standards, and regulatory guides and will help you learn the different ways NRC regulations and requirements are implemented by licensees.
