Working Group on Fuel Cycle Safety (WGFCS)

The main mission of the Working Group on Fuel Cycle Safety (WGFCS) is to advance the understanding of relevant aspects of nuclear fuel cycle safety in member countries. In pursuit of these goals, the working group:

• meets to exchange information on relevant matters including licensing systems, safety philosophy and safety standards to improve mutual understanding;

• maintains a database on incidents involving fuel cycle facilities (FINAS);

• indicates where further research is needed;

• prepares state-of-the-art fuel cycle safety reports; and

• collaborates with other groups as necessary.
