RADIATION IMPACT ASSESSMENT WHEN DISMANTLING VICTOR CLASS NUCLEAR POWERED SUBMARINES

摘要

The main purpose of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) document is to prepare environmentally safe process procedures for carrying out works in accordance with following tasks: 1. The analysis of possible ways of Nuclear Submarine (NS) dismantling. Identification and analysis of potential environmental impact sources within NS dismantling procedures; 2. Prediction and thorough study of environmental changes, which may be caused by NS dismantling; 3. Prediction and ranking of environmental effects and associated with them social, economical and other consequences of NS dismantling. EIA purpose is to mitigate environmental negative impact caused by NS dismantling. The basic criteria for assessment of environmental impact caused by chemical and radiation factors of NS dismantling are as follows: 1. total hazardous chemicals and radioactive substance releases shall not exceed maximum permissible limits of hazardous chemicals and radioactive materials; 2. total hazardous chemicals and radioactive discharge with wastewater shall not exceed established limits; 3. industrial (toxic) waste total volume shall not exceed limits specified by limitations on waste disposal; 4. production activities and possible emergencies in the process of NS dismantling shall be supported by management measures and safety equipment; 5. population safety at the resident area shall be provided in the process of NS dismantling under normal and emergency conditions.
