The range of TSG-SRFs fulfill some of the requirements of point 5 of the plan.
Careful consideration of each of the six interdependent disciplines of the Six point
Plan is important to help ensure the provision of optimal protection and long-term
operational viability. The degree of protection required will be determined by the
individual situation and the proper application of risk management principles.
