Transport Organisation at the European Commission's Joint Research Centre in Geel (BE)
The transport organisation of even small quantities of radioactive material is a complex field including many technical (packaging) and administrative (regulations, licensing, fissile material accountancy, notifications) issues.
IRMM has introduced a transport organisation system that enhances safety and security. The system is based on the clear definition of responsibilities, the dispatch via a designated packaging and storage room with access control and three independent radiation and contamination checks.
This presentation details the transport organisation and quality control measures at IRMM and shares experiences and problems encountered with shipping of small quantities of fissile material due to the numerous applicable regulations.
