  1. Working Group 1 Reference and Graded Approaches for Assessing the Impact of Radioactive Discharges

  2. Aims • Methodologies for setup of reference models for assessing radiological impacts • Planned releases • Existing situations • Discharges from HLW to the environment • Find consensus on • Reference principles • Procedures • Data sets for defined situations • Standardization and harmonization of models for assessing radiological • Humans • Biota

  3. Relevant situations • Impact of planned discharges • Nuclear industry, NORM, uranium industry, hospitals, laboratories, small enterprises, shallow land burial • Compliance of discharges during operation • Monitoring strategies • Locations, frequency, environmental media • Use of monitoring data in impact assessment • Existing contaminations • Past contaminations • NORM, etc.

  4. Integrated assessment • Aim: Model validation • Test and compare assessment model predictions of the transfer of radionuclides in real environments • Analysis of radionuclide transfer subsequent to environmental contaminations • Releases to atmosphere • Releases to water (fresh)water bodies • Output • Activity in environmental media • Exposures via all relevant pathways • Internal/external exposure • Humans and biota • Sensitivity: pathways / processes / parameters

  5. 6 proposedissuesdiscussed • Prospective assessments of radioactive discharges • Prospective assessments of the long-term impact of radioactive waste repositories • Prospective assessment of the impact of NORM releases • Assessment of radiological impact of legacy sites • Integrated assessment • Regulatory approach for humans and biota (to be discussed today)

  6. Response • Interests for all topics • Some participants are interested in more than one topic • Preliminary ranking:Waste disposal > NORM/Existing situations > Reference models for releases

  7. Possible Groups • Reference methodologiesandmodelsforplannedreleases • Planning • Operation • Reference modelsforwastedisposal • Reference cases • Climate • Interface geosphere/biosphere • Environmental changes • Reference modelsforexistingsituations • NORM (U, coal, oil gas) • Legacy sites (Russia, Central Asia, USA, UK, etc)

  8. How to go on • Discussion of a regulatory approach on protection of humans and biota (with WG 2) • Agreement on subgroups • Continue to work in sub-groups
