The Director-General shall report each such arrangement to the Board.Article 77In the circumstances which may lead to special inspections for the purposes specified in Article 73, the Community and the Agency shall consult forthwith. As a result of such consultations the Agency may:(a) make inspections in addition to the routine inspection effort provided for in this Agreement; and(b) obtain access, in agreement with the Community, to information or locations in addition to those specified in Article 76. Any disagreement shall be resolved in accordance with Articles 21 and 22. In case action by the Community or a State, in so far as either Party is individually concerned, is essential and urgent, Article 18 shall apply.Frequency and intensity of routine inspectionsArticle 78The number, intensity and duration of routine inspections, applying optimum timing, shall be kept to the minimum consistent with the effective implementation of the safeguards procedures set forth in this Agreement, and optimum and most economical use of available inspection resources under the Agreement shall be made.Article 79The Agency may carry out one routine inspection per year in respect of facilities and material balance areas outside facilities with a content or annual throughput, whichever is greater, of nuclear material not exceeding five effective kilograms.Article 80The number, intensity, duration, timing and mode of routine inspections in respect of facilities with a content or annual throughput of nuclear material exceeding five effective kilograms shall be determined on the basis that in the maximum or limiting case the inspection regime shall be no more intensive than is necessary and sufficient to maintain continuity of knowledge of the flow and inventory of nuclear material, and the maximum routine inspection effort in respect of such facilities shall be determined as follows:(a) for reactors and sealed storage installations the maximum total of routine inspection per year shall be determined by allowing one-sixth of a man-year of inspection for each such facility;(b) for facilities, other than reactors or sealed storage installations, involving plutunium or uranium enriched to more than 5 %, the maximum total of routine inspection per year shall be determined by allowing by for each such facility 30 × square root E man-days of inspection per year, where E is the inventory or annual throughput of nuclear material, wichever is graeater, expressed in effective kilograms. The maximum established for any such facility shall not, however, be less than 1,5 man-yars of inspection; and(c) for facilities not covered by paragraph (a) or (b), the maximum total of routine inspection per year shall be determined by allowing for each such facility one-third of a man-year of inspection plus 0,4 × E man-days of inspection per year, where E is the inventory or annual throughput of nuclear material, whichever is greater, expressed in effective kilograms.The Parties to this Agreement may agree to amend the figures for the maximum inspection effort, specified in this Article, upon determination by the Board that such amendment is reasonable.Article 81Subject to Articles 78 to 80 the criteria to be used for determining the actual number, intensity, duration, timing and mode of routine inspections in respect of any facility shall include:(a) the form of the nuclear material, in particular, whether the nuclear material is in bulk form or contained in a number of separate items; its chemical composition and, in the case of uranium, whether it is of low or high enrichment; and its accessibility;(b) the effectiveness of the Community's safeguards, including the extent to which the operators of facilities are functionally independent of the Community's safeguards; the extent to which the measures specified in Article 32 have been implemented by the Community; the promptness of reports provided to the Agency; their consistency with the Agency's independent verification; and the amount and accuracy of the material unaccounted for, as verified by the Agency;(c) characteristics of the nuclear fuel cycle in the States, in particular, the number and types of facilities containing nuclear material subject to safeguards under this Agreement, the characteristics of such facilities relevant to safeguards under this Agreement, notably the degree of containment; the extent to which the design of such facilities facilitates verification of the flow and inventory of nuclear material; and the extent to which information from different material balance areas can be correlated;(d) international interdependence, in particular, the extent to which nuclear material is received from or sent to other States for use or processing; any verification activities by the Agency in connection therewith; and the extent to which the nuclear activities in each State are interrelated with those in other States; and(e) technical developments in the field of safeguards, including the use of statistical techniques and random sampling in evaluating the flow of nuclear material.Article 82The Agency and the Community shall consult if the latter considers that the inspection effort is being deployed with undue concentration on particular facilities.Notice of inspectionsArticle 83The Agency shall give advance notice to the Community and to the States concerned before arrival of Agency inspectors at facilities or material balance areas outside facilities, as follows:(a) for ad hoc inspections pursuant to Article 71 (b), at least 24 hours; for those pursuant to Article 71 (a), as well as the activities provided for in Article 48, at least one week;(b) for special inspections pursuant to Article 73, as promptly as possible after the Agency and the Community have consulted as provided for in Article 77, it being understood that notification of arrival normally will constitute part of the consultations; and(c) for routine inspections pursuant to Article 72, at least 24 hours in respect of the facilities referred to in Article 80 (b) and sealed storage installations containing plutonium or uranium enriched to more than 5 %, and one week in all other cases.Such notice of inspections shall include the names of the Agency inspectors and shall indicate the facilities and the material balance areas outside facilities to be visited and the period during which they will be visited. If the Agency inspectors are to arrive from outside the States, the Agency shall also give advance notice of the place and time of their arrival in the States.Article 84Notwithstan …
