The nuclear power plant decommissioning project inevitably considers time, cost, safety, document, etc. as major management areas according to the PMBOK technique. Among them, document management, like all projects, will be an area that must be systematically managed for the purpose of information delivery and record maintenance. In Korea, where there is no experience in the decommissioning project yet, data management is systematically managed and maintained during construction and operation. However, if the decommissioning project is to be launched soon, it is necessary to prepare in consideration of the system in operation, what difference will occur from it in terms of data management, and how it should be managed. As a document that can occur in the decommissioning project, this study was considered from the perspective of the licensee. Therefore, the types of documents that can be considered at Level 1 can be divided into (1) corresponding documents, (2) project documents, (3) internal documents, and (4) reference materials. Four document types are recommended based on Level 1 for the classification of documents to be managed in the decommissioning of nuclear facilities. In this study, documents to be managed in the decommissioning project of nuclear facilities were reviewed and the type was to be derived. Although it was preliminary, it was largely classified into major categories 1, middle categories 2, and 3 levels, and documents that could occur in each field were proposed. As a result, it could be largely classified into corresponding documents, project documents, internal documents, and reference materials, and subsequent classifications could be derived. Documents that may occur in the decommissioning project must be managed by distinguishing between types to reduce the time for duplication or search, and the capacity of the storage can be efficiently managed. Therefore, it is hoped that the document types considered in this study will be used as reference materials for the decommissioning project and develop into a more systematic structure.
