Draft Rating of Transportation and Radiological Source events

[John Jacobus <crispy_bird@YAHOO.COM>]

I received the following through another e-mail, and

thought it might be of interest.



INES Additional Guidance for the Rating of Transport

of Radioactive Material and Radiation Source Events

(PILOT)



INES Additional Guidance is at 



http://www-news.iaea.org/news/inesmanual/INESaddguidance.pdf





The INES Additional Guidance for the Rating of

Transport of Radioactive Material and Radiation Source

Events is intended to cover all radiation sources and

transport events (including where sources or packages

are lost or stolen incidentally) whether or not they

occur at a facility. Facilities covered include

nuclear installations, industrial, medical or research

facilities, irradiators or accelerators. 

This guidance provides an expanded approach for the

rating based on actual exposure of individuals and,

therefore should also be used for events involving

unplanned exposure within nuclear installations (such

as nuclear power plants, research reactors, and fuel

cycle facilities). The full scope of this additional

guidance is provided in its Section 3. 



This additional guidance is available for pilot use as

of 1 July 2004. 



Feedback of experience, comments and suggestions

should be provided to the IAEA Secretariat by e-mail

to: 



INESGuidance@iaea.org with the subject: INES

Additional guidance
