The 2009 edition of the Federal Law On Technical Regulation, indicating the particulars of technical regulation, makes it possible to implement more fully the provisions of the Federal Law On the Use of Atomic Energy for assuring the required production quality for objects using atomic energy, confirming that the production and associated manufacturing conform to modern standards, including international technologies and procedures. This possibility is realized for equipment and pipelines by means of a domestic code of rules which assure the integrity of the elements of nuclear facilities. A code of rules must preserve the succession of more than 60 years of domestic experience with nuclear power and industry and become a platform for operational adoption of the results of scientific research, and modern industrial technologies.
