Quality assurance cross checks

Data screening and quality assurance checking were conducted at initial information retrieval and all data entries cross-checked during subsequent data compilation. Production/activity levels were verified against different information sources including annual records, selfmonitoring reports and ad hoc study reports. There was inadequate documentation of local industrial/commercial/urban activities and/or limited analytical data on the level of POPs contamination in some classes of emission sources. These were identified as inventory data gaps for followup actions. 

The radial power profile at the axial center of the reactor is shown in Fig. 5.1. The HELIOS calculation is taken as the reference value, and cross sections for the reactor simulator (described elsewhere in this report) were derived from that calculation. The SCALE/XSDRNPM calculation was performed as a quality assurance check on the HELIOS calculation. The SCALE code system and associated cross section...
