China`s national standard on exemption and its applications

Abstract

With the growth of the nuclear applications and with reaching decommissioning stage of the first generation of nuclear facilities of China, the application of exemption principles is more and more important. In early period, some exemption items was included in the National Basic Safety Standard (NBSS). Recently, a China`s national standard on exemption was issued in 1992, mainly referring to some documents of IAEA and some other Organizations. The most basic criteria for generic exemption from notification, registration and licensing are: (a) the annual risk is not greater than 10{sup -7}a{sup -1} or (b) the annual effective dose equivalent to individuals of the critical group at no time exceeds 10 {mu}Sv and the collective effective dose equivalent commitment from the exempted source or practice shall not be greater than 1 man {center_dot} Sv. This standard involved exemption for low level solid and liquid radioactive wastes and for recycling or reuse of materials. Another specified standard for controlling ``consumer products`` is to be published in near future. Some issues related are mentioned. (author). 6 refs, 3 tabs.
