Rapporten redegjør for miljøkonsekvenser i Norge etter en tenkt ulykke ved Sellafield-anlegget. Utredningen er avgrenset til terrestrisk miljø, og vektlegger produkter fra dyr på naturbeite, samt ville bær og sopp. Det tas kun hensyn til 137Cs. De estimerte konsekvensene er store – særlig for sauehold og geitemelksproduksjon.

I 2009 har Strålevernet som sekretariat for Kriseutvalet for atomberedskap fått informasjon om fleire mindre hendingar. Det har ikkje vore noko atomhendingar innanlands eller utanlands som har hatt konsekvensar for Noreg, men det har vore tilfell av mindre hendingar med kjelder.

Rapporten omfatter beskrivelse og resultater fra Strålevernets RADNETT- og luftfilterstasjoner og fra Sivilforsvarets radiacmåletjeneste i 2008 og 2009.

Andrejevbukta, ca. seks mil fra den norsk-russiske grensen, var fra 1960-tallet en militær servicebase for Nordflåtens reaktordrevne fartøyer. Ved anlegget er det lagret brukt reaktorbrensel fra ca. 100 atomubåter, samt store mengder annet fast og flytende radioaktivt avfall. Etter at driften ved anlegget opphørte på 1980-tallet, har det vært minimalt vedlikehold og deler av området er sterkt forurenset. Russland har nå startet arbeidet med å fjerne brukt brensel fra Andrejevbukta.

The Norwegian nuclear preparedness is built up around the Crisis Committee for Nuclear Preparedness, which consists of representatives of central authorities who have a special responsibility for nuclear preparedness.

Den norske atomberedskapen er bygget opp rundt Kriseutvalget for atomberedskap som består av representanter fra sentrale myndigheter med et spesielt ansvar i atomberedskapen.

The Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority is responsible for a nationwide network of 28 stations that continuously measure background radiation levels. The network was established in the years following the Chernobyl accident in 1986, and was upgraded to a new and modern network in the period 2006-2008. The purpose of the monitoring network is to provide an early warning if radioactive emissions reach Norway. The measurements from the network will also form an important part of the decision base for the Crisis Committee for Nuclear Preparedness in an early phase, once the news of the emissions has reached Norway.

The Norwegian Radiation Protection Authority currently has five air filter stations located at various sites throughout Norway. The stations are important for surveying airborne radioactivity, and for the assessment and composition of any emissions in the case of mishaps and accidents. There are similar stations throughout Europe, and the inter-state collaboration makes it possible to track any emissions of radioactive substances.
