The levels of surface contamination or specific activity of this materials exceeds the levels of release of radioactive materials from regulatory control.
Ukraine faces the task of development the State strategy and radiation safety system on management of naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) and waste containing NORM (NORM-waste).
The development and implementation of Policy and Strategy for management of NORM and NORM-waste will allow to ensure protection of workers, public & environment during the generation, accumulation, decontamination of equipment contaminated by NORM and NORM-waste) and disposal of NORM-waste that generated.
