Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Activities on radon management strategy of international organisations (International Atomic Energy Agency, International Commission on Radiation Protection, etc.) should be carefully and continuously traced to discuss how to control radon in various environments, for example, dwellings, workplace, underground, caves, mines, hot springs, disposal facilities and so on. It is more reasonable in parallel to set radon reference level by effective dose criteria of Sv y(-1) as well as by radon concentration in air of Bq m(-3). How to investigate radon concentration in each environment, and how to make decisions on needed action for radiation protection from natural radon,-these should be discussed for each environmental situation on a case-by-case basis. International discussion as well as domestic discussion is continuously needed, not only among the radon specialists and regulators, but also including stakeholders who are the main users of regulation and guidance.
