– A mid term evaluation of the programme.
– Status reports to the European Parliament and Council on the implementation of the financial EU assistance.
Additionally, a monitoring system should be put in place by the beneficiaries, allowing for active day-to-day monitoring of the projects and tasks, and allowing for immediate operational feedback into the planning with corrective measures.
Logical Framework Matrix
|| Intervention logic || Indicators || Source of Verification || Assumptions
Overall Objective || Support the Member States efforts in safe decommissioning. || Progress according decommissioning plan (tasks, costs, resources, timing); || Decommissioning plan; Regular monitoring meetings; Reporting by NPP and national authorities; || Stable political and regulatory framework; National funding forthcoming to meet the funding gap;
Specific Programme Objectives Purpose || To reach an irreversible state within the decommissioning process; To safely manage spent nuclear fuel and the radioactive waste; To maintain the key expertise and knowledge; || Dismantling according decommissioning plan; Waste management according detailed waste management plan; Use of staff from the nuclear power plants; || Decommissioning and waste management plan; Regular reporting and monitoring meetings; || Stable political and regulatory framework; No changes in decommissioning strategy;
Outputs (expected results) || NPPs safely maintained; No environmental impact; Spent fuel safely stored; Nuclear waste safely stored; Decommissioning license in place; Design of core/primary circuit dismantling; Staff engaged on decommissioning; || Nb of incidents/accidents; Environmental monitoring data; Nb of fuel elements stored and Nb of waste packages stored according to the planning; License issued according to the time schedule; Design completed in time; Nb of staff employed; Earned value analysis; || Status and progress reports; Regular monitoring meetings; License issued by the regulator; Staff accountancy; || Efficient NPP management structure for decommissioning established and fully operational; Efficient decommissioning planning in place; Operational feedback effectively used; No changes in decommissioning strategy; Proactive project monitoring function in place;
Activities || Safe maintenance; Defueling; Dismantling works; Radwaste treatment and conditioning; Licensing docs; Engineering design core/prim circuit dismantling; Staff training and reallocation; || Planning of safe maintenance; Nb of fuel elements unloaded; Quantity of material/system dismantled; Quantity of rad waste treated and conditioned; Submission of licensing doc; Design feasibility and engineering studies; Nb of staff trained and reallocated; || Status and progress reports; Regular monitoring meetings; Detailed decommissioning work plan; Operational feedback to NPP planning department; HR plan; || Efficient NPP management structure for decommissioning established and fully operational; National funding forthcoming to meet the funding gap; Economic viability for using own NPP staff;

[2] Closure to become irreversible means that decommissioning has progressed so far on a technical level, that it would economically no longer be advantageous to consider the re-opening of the concerned reactor units.
[3] To be noted that not for all staff, salaries should be paid under decommissioning.
