Requirements for quality assurance from the directive REI Mining and otherregulations

Many requirements for the quality, assurance of the licensee and the indepe ndent measuring centre can be derived from the Directive for the "Surveilla nce of emission and immission of mining work" (REI Mining). However these s hould be viewed within the context of "Instructions of measurement related to the surveillance of radioactivity in the environment and to the registra tion of radioactive emissions from nuclear installations" (MA). Further, it would be advisable to compare the REI Mining requirements to both the Dire ctive for the "Surveillance of emission and immission from nuclear installa tions" (REI) as well as to the "General administration order to the integra ted measuring and information system of the precautionary Radiation Protect ion Act" (AVV-IMIS). In this article, the various requirements are compared , their common and different aspects are discussed, and possible conclusion s for the licensee, the independent measuring centre and the authority of s upervision and licencing are presented.
