The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has issued Developing a Nuclear Security Contingency Plan for Nuclear Facilities, part of IAEA Nuclear Security Series No. 39-T. This publication provides guidance to states, competent authorities, and operators on how to develop and maintain contingency plans for nuclear facilities. It can be used as a starting point for organizations that have not previously prepared or developed contingency plans, as well as a reference for organizations that wish to validate or improve their existing contingency plans. It is intended for use by senior managers and security specialists charged with developing such plans and by competent authorities responsible for their oversight.
