New rules regarding the nuclear safety of reactor facilities at nuclear power plants in Uzbekistan have been state-registered. The Ministry of Justice reported this.
The document, registered on November 5, sets requirements aimed at the construction, operation, and prevention of accidents at NPPs.
According to it, before construction begins, the reactor's safety systems must be designed, and the potential impact of accidents on public health and the environment must be studied.
Additionally, safety systems will be regularly tested, and the reactor power will be increased in stages. Special training sessions on how to act in emergency situations will also be organized for personnel.
Recall that on October 16, Shavkat Mirziyoyev announced at a meeting with investors that the construction of the first NPP in Uzbekistan has begun, and the construction of second and third nuclear power plants is also planned.
