Challenges in radiation protection and nuclear safety regulation of the nuclear legacy: Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Challenges in Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Regulation of the Nuclear Legacy, organised jointly by NRPA and FMBA, "Ershovo" (Zvenigorod)

A NATO workshop was held in September 2007 under the Security through Scienceframework to consider the current challenges in regulation of the nuclear legacy. The overall objective was to share East-West competence and experience inradiation protection and nuclear safety supervision of installations built during the cold war, particularly in relation to regulatory strategies for safe decommissioning of unique or unusual nuclear facilities and remediation activities. There were over 60 participants from 8 countries as well as representatives from the International Commission on Radiological Protection, the International Atomic Energy Agency and NATO. The organisations involved included regulatory authorities, operators and technical support organizations. First time the regulatory challenges related to nuclear legacy have been discussed Unique wide perspective on practical problems connected to the remediation and decommissioning from regulatory perspective A recognition of the major threats, as well as weakness in regulatory processes, can be useful in directing future resources for the remediation INDICE: From the contents Preface.- 1.
