Abstract

Based on the evaluation of data on public exposure from various sources, the paper demonstrates that the contribution of nuclear power and nuclear industry into individual and total collective doses in Russia is minor compared to the exposure from natural radiation sources and medical treatment even in regions with sites run by Rosatom. The personnel are exposed to a level being considered common for the nuclear industry. Public exposure associated with the management of RW is practically absent with the same exposure levels being forecasted in the long run. Based on the above and considering the objectives for the USS RW development, the paper presents relevant proposals on further elaboration of basic radiation safety regulations: NRB, OSPORB and SPORO.
