National Ignition Facility experiments involve the use of a variety of materials that generate a number of radiological issues. Along with the use of tritium and depleted uranium, shots generating neutrons create prompt radiation fields as well as fission and activation products. In order to assure readiness for these hazards, a series of readiness reviews was conducted as the hazards were introduced. Each step was built upon the previous steps, as well as the basic infrastructure and operating capability of the laser facility. A detailed preparation plan for the introduction of these hazards was developed. This included ensuring required equipment was in place and ready, all plans and procedures were developed, and personnel were trained and qualified to perform work in the environment. The approach for preparing the facility for operations under the new set of conditions, the preparations for the readiness reviews, the review process, as well as the approach to initial operations are discussed.
国家点火设施实验涉及使用多种会产生一些放射性问题的材料。除了氚和贫化铀的使用外，产生中子的射击还会产生瞬发辐射场以及裂变和激活产物。为了确保对这些危害做好准备，随着危害的引入，进行了一系列的准备情况审查。每一步都建立在前一步的基础上，以及激光设施的基本基础设施和运行能力上。详细制定了引入这些危害的准备计划。这包括确保所需的设备到位并准备就绪，制定所有计划和程序，并对人员进行培训和资格认证，以使其能够在环境中进行工作。讨论了为在新的一组条件下使设施做好运行准备、为准备情况审查所做的准备、审查过程以及初始操作方法。
