Implementation of changes in the U.S. nuclear fuel cycle for emerging needs such as high-assay low-enriched uranium, advanced fuel types, advanced medical isotopes, and plutonium processing will require new facilities and their associated processes and equipment. Integration of nuclear criticality safety (NCS) principles, limits, and controls should be incorporated early in the design process. This session will include papers which address the new strategies which may be employed to integrate NCS into the design process, operating experience and lessons learned from past design projects, and the associated risks and challenges faced by NCS practitioners during the design processes
