1.A Basic Guide to Quality Assurance
The EM Quality Assurance Program (QAP) is based on the requirements of DOE Order O 414.1C, Quality Assurance, and 10 CFR 830 Subpart A "Quality Assurance Requirements." Additionally, EM has adopted the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) NQA-1-2004, Quality Assurance Requirements for Nuclear Facility Applications, as the national consensus standard for the implementation of its QAP.

6.Consumer Energy Council of America, Fueling the Future: Better Ways to Use America's Fuel Options, May 2006
“Over the next 20 years, the need will increase for affordable and reliable power that does not emit criteria pollutants and greenhouse gases. Nuclear energy is the only proven resource that can accomplish this goal on a large scale.” (p. ES-10)

8.Deterring Terrorism: Aircraft Crash Impact Analyses Demonstrate Nuclear Power Plant's Structural Strength (EPRI Study)
This independent study demonstrates through state-of-the-art computer modeling techniques that structures housing reactor fuel at U.S. nuclear power plants would protect against a release of radiation even if struck by a large commercial jetliner. The study was conducted by EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute).

9.EPRI, News Release, Yucca Radiation Standard Should Use Different Approach, April 18, 2005
EPRI's news release summarizes the results of its study, Yucca Mountain Licensing Standard Options for Very Long Time Frames."The radiation protection standard for the Yucca Mountain, Nevada, spent nuclear fuel repository should be fundamentally different for the periods exceeding 10,000 years, according to a new study just published by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). The recommendations in the report recognize that detailed information about processes and events taking place many tens of thousands of years in the future will not be available and that different requirements are necessary to explicitly acknowledge that uncertainties increase with time."

10.French National Academy of Medicine (Academie nationale de medecine), Energy Choices and Health (Choix energetiques et sante, recommendations)
"Nuclear generating stations appear to have the lesser impact on health by kWh produced, compared to power generated by fossil fuels or even, as shown, notably, in the European Commission's ExternE Report and considering the high level of security of nuclear installations, by wind, photovoltaic cells or biomass."
