PROGRAMMES FOR MONITORING IN PRACTICES AND INTERVENTIONS

The setup of a monitoring programme is the result of an optimization process in which the availability of measurement resources, the relative importance of different exposure pathways, and the levels of activity and dose in relation to the regulatory constraints are taken into consideration. Once a monitoring programme has been implemented, it should be reviewed periodically to ensure that it continually fulfils the objectives. 

During safety assessments carried out as part of the hcensing process, the operations of fadhties that may possibly discharge radionuclides should be analysed and evaluated and the conditions of operation should be defined. In general, the following data are established as part of the hcensing process  

In the early stages of operation of a facility, frequent and detailed
