  1. BELGIAN GLOBAL APPROACH ON THE RADIOLOGICAL SURVEILLANCEOF RADIOACTIVE SUBSTANCES IN METAL SCRAP AND NON-RADIOACTIVE WASTEWERTELAERS A., DROESCH P., MICHIELS J., PEPIN S., POFFIJN A., SCHRAUBEN M.FEDERAL AGENCY FOR NUCLEAR CONTROL (FANC), Brussels, BelgiumInternational Conference on Control and Management of Inadvertent Radioactive Material in Scrap MetalCSN – IAEA - February 2009 – Tarragona, Spain Preventing radioactive sources ending up in non-nuclear sectors Identifying the facilities sensitive to orphan sources flows Imposing appropriate monitoring, based on a graded approach in these non-nuclear facilities • Facilities => Orphan sources sensitive flows • Vigilance procedure • Basic staff training • Reaction procedure when a source is found • Notification to FANC Ø Container park Ø Scrap yard < 25,000 tons/year Ø Sorting site Ø … Defining the flows that are sensitive for orphan sources Ø Scrap yard > 25,000 tons/year Ø Waste incinerator Ø Foundry > 25,000 tons/year Ø Public waste landfill • Facilities => Automatic monitoring • Screening with portal monitors • Intervention by operators • Reaction procedure when a source is found • Notification Collecting information from sources found in these facilities and providing feedback Financing mechanism to deal with orphan sources FANC NIRAS/ONDRAF • KEY FACTORS FOR SUCCESS • Close cooperation with : • NIRAS/ONDRAF : Belgian National Agency for Radioactive Waste and Enriched Fissile Materials • Financing mechanism for orphan sources • Environmental administrations of the three Belgian Regions : the Flemish, Walloon and Brussels-Capital Regions) • Stakeholders involvement : professional sectors • COBEREC (Belgian Recuperation and Recycling Federation) • FEBEM/FEGE (Waste Management Federation) • GSV (Belgian Steel Federation) • INTERAFVAL (Flemish Intermunicipal Companies for Waste Treatment) • VVSG (Association of Flemish Cities and Municipalities – public waste management) • COPIDEC (Walloon Intermunicipal Companies for Waste Treatment) • AGORIA (Federation for the Technology Industry) • Financing mechanism for orphan source : fund of NIRAS/ONDRAF • Registration of facilities (and portal detector) mandatory • Notification of source discovery • Examination by FANC : orphan source ? financing ? • FANC orphan source certificate => ONDRAF/NIRAS
