Meeting the Needs of the Nuclear Industry

Since promulgation of 10 CFR 50, Appendix R in 1981, many of those with original Appendix R expertise have moved on to other endeavors or they are nearing retirement from the Nuclear Industry. Yet, today, the industry is confronted with new challenges in fire protection compliance interpretations and configuration management, and with meeting those challenges cost-effectively.  The old “model” of having complete staffs of individuals with all the necessary skills – by either licensees or A/E firms – is not practical in many cases in today’s transition to open market utility competition. The ARS Model helps to meet those needs by providing Leadership and Service to the Fire Protection Community, and facilitating alliances of associates and affiliates.
