Denne oppsummeringsrapporten ble laget som en del av bakgrunnsinformasjonen som ble oversendt i forkant av IAEAs IRRS-revisjon som vil bli gjennomført i Norge i juni 2019.

Based on the identified need to develop coherent approaches applicable for radioactive and hazardous waste types, as well as to mixed waste such as NORM waste, a study to address the issues affecting the assessment of impacts of disposal of radioactive and hazardous waste was done internationally by members of the Bioprota forum. Details on key objectives, main findings and results of the study are given in this report.

This report describes given presentations and main conclusions from an International Workshop on supportive role of radioecology in regulatory decision-making processes. The overall objective of the workshop was to evaluate progress and enable further linking of radioecology with regulatory needs in case of NORM and other legacies, and their waste. Workshop aimed to provide a general forum for discussion and understanding between scientists and regulators concerning various NORM legacy issues and to consider how radioecology can ensure input to a more comprehensive approach to deal with legacy issues.

This report presents results of monitoring of radioactivity in sea water, sediment and biota collected in Norwe-gian waters in 2012, 2013 and 2014.

The international workshop «Radioecology as a Support to Regulatory Decision Making at NORM and other Legacies, Related Waste Management and Disposal» 3 September 2017, Berlin, succeeds to gather regulators, scientists and operators at international level.

This report presents conclusions of an International workshop on comparison of methods for environmental impact assessments used for radioactive and hazardous waste. International approaches, differences and similarities within them, are given in the report.

This report presents results of monitoring of radioactivity in sea water, sediment and biota collected in Norwegian waters in 2011.

In 2010, samples of sea water, sediment, and biota were collected in the Barents Sea, the North Sea, the Skagerrak and at a number of coastal stations and fjords. Data on radioactivity levels and trends in these areas are summarised in this report.

Alunskifer inneholder naturlig forekommende radioaktive stoffer. Utgravde masser med alunskifer vil i mange tilfeller regnes som radioaktivt avfall, og avrenning fra alunskifer som radioaktiv forurensning.
