The fundamentals of the state policy in the field of nuclear and radiation safety of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2025 and the further perspective have determined that one of the objectives of the state policy in the field of radiation safety is to maintain the risk of radiation exposure of the nuclear workers as low as possible. To achieve this goal, efforts and resources should be focused on solving a number of tasks, including: protection in accordance with the principle of acceptable risk for nuclear workers; improvement of the state management and state regulation of safety in the field of nuclear energy using; radiation safety assurance during the decommissioning of nuclear legacy facilities, management of spent nuclear fuel, remediation of radioactively contaminated sites of the Russian Federation. Today, federal authorities responsible for monitoring and supervising the health and epidemiological welfare of workers in some industries with especially hazardous working conditions, and research institutions involved in scientific and methodological support of these authorities are faced with the task of solving the following urgent problems in the field of radiation safety: to improve regulatory and methodical support of the state radiation safety regulation; to assure safety and protection of workers and the population during the decommissioning of radiation hazardous facilities and remediation of radioactively contaminated sites; to assure radiation safety during the management of spent nuclear fuel.

“…It was put into operation in two stages: in 1962 and 1973. In 1982, significant contaminated water was found to be escaping from one of the SNF storage basins and all efforts to stop it failed [2]. Spent fuel receipt to the store was stopped.…”

Radiological protection regulation during spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste management in the Western Branch of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise ‘SevRAO’

The site of temporary storage of spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste, situated at Andreeva Bay in Northwest Russia, was developed in the 1960s, and it has carried out receipt and storage of fresh and spent nuclear fuel, and solid and liquid radioactive waste generated during the operation of nuclear submarines and nuclear-powered icebreakers. The site is now operated as the western branch of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise, SevRAO. In the course of operation over several decades, the containment barriers in the Spent Nuclear Fuel and Radioactive Waste storage facilities partially lost their containment effectiveness, so workshop facilities and parts of the site became contaminated with radioactive substances. This paper describes work being undertaken to provide an updated regulatory basis for the protection of workers during especially hazardous remediation activities, necessary because of the unusual radiation conditions at the site. It describes the results of recent survey work carried out by the Burnasyan Federal Medical Biophysical Centre, within a programme of regulatory cooperation between the Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority and the Federal Medical-Biological Agency of Russia. The survey work and subsequent analyses have contributed to the development of special regulations setting out radiological protection requirements for operations planned at the site. Within these requirements, and taking account of a variety of other factors, a continuing need arises for the implementation of optimisation of remediation at Andreeva Bay.
