description

There is an obligation on ONR to provide regulatory assurance on the management bylicensee’s of radiation fields at their site fences. This requires ONR to establishindependent confirmation of these radiation fields. The public policy imperativesthatunderpin this need are as follows:
i)It is ONR’s responsibility to maintain regulatory oversight of the direct radiationsemanating from operations at nuclear licenced sites. ONR must be able todemonstrate that it meets this obligation.
ii)The UK needs to be able to demonstrate compliance with Basic SafetyStandards Directive 96/29 EURATOM and implementing UK law as regardspublic exposures.
iii)These dose rate data form an important part of the annual report on“Radioactivity In Food and the Environment” (RIFE), which is producedby the Environment Agency, the Food Standards Agency, the Northern IrelandEnvironment Agency and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency.
1.2In 2000 the NII first started to collect dose rate data from licensees, except for researchreactors and certain defence establishments, and since then, a small number of licensedsites (typically four) have been selected each year and the doserates measured atselected places along the perimeter. The data are then used to estimate the exposure ofthe public reference groups to direct radiation. Further information is available in theAppendix to this document.
