Description/Abstract:
BRIEFLY REVIEWS THE POSSIBILITIES OF ATMOSPHERIC POLLUTION FROM AIRBORNE RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS FROM PLANTS AND PROCESSES REQUIRED FOR A NUCLEAR INDUSTRY. THE SIGNIFICANCE OF DAY-TO-DAY AIRBORNE RELEASES EXPECTED AND THE OCCASIONAL LOSS OF CONTROL IS DISCUSSED BASED ON PREVIOUS EXPERIENCES IN THE NUCLEAR INDUSTRY. THE POTENTIAL FOR VERY SERIOUS RELEASES OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS IS CONSIDERED
