Belgian experience with respect to monitoring of radioactive material in scrap metal Group of Experts on Monitoring of Radioactively Contaminated Scrap Metal Second Session – Geneva, June 2006 S. Pepin and Y. Pouleur, Federal Agency for Nuclear Control - Belgium

Stand of the situation Monitoring of radioactivity takes places in two main sectors: -Recycling of scrap metal (major scrap yards, foundries,…) (~ 50 facilities) -Waste management facilities (landfills, incinerators) (~ 10 facilities) Portal monitors (mostly) + grapple- mounted detectors

Regulations -Monitoring not compulsory (apart for some categories of waste landfills) -Federal Agency for Nuclear Control (FANC) issued “directives for the use of portal monitors in the non nuclear sector” => technical directives to guide the operators in dealing with detection of radioactive material (radioprotection thresholds, notification procedure,…) + technical annex for radioprotection experts (exemption levels,…)

Regulations (2) Several administrations involved (federal + regional) Ongoing discussions with regional administrations over where to impose monitoring  Identify the nodal points of the scrap recycling network (balance between need for monitoring and costs of monitoring) Transposition of EU directive 2003/122/Euratom : Royal Decree of May 23, 2006

Incidents statistics Number of radioactive sources detected in (not including short-lived radionuclides + NORM): -Waste management sector: 27 -Scrap recycling sector: 53 Detail by category: Very few incidents involving shipments from abroad Sealed sources: 5Lightning rods: 7 Radioluminous products: 21Contaminated scrap: 20 Pharmaceutical products (thoriumnitrate, uranylacetate): 11Thoriated lenses: 3 Radioactive minerals: 1Others: 2

Incidents statistics (2) Number of detection ( ) as a function of the dose rate in contact with the source waste sector scrap sector

Other issues Importance of training and information (workgroup communication, FAQs, website) Financial consequences : -up to now => operators are responsible -discussions for a public funds are ongoing (insolvability fund of the operators of the nuclear sector)
