The first stage of establishing a monitoring network for monitoring the radiation situation in Armenia is going on successfully. Stationary radiation monitoring stations are being installed by NRSC. With the support of the EU, it is planned to install a total of 32 stationary stations in Armenia, two spectrometric stations in the areas adjacent to the Metsamor NPP, and a number of settlements. The monitoring stations will transmit information on the radiation situation to the Armenian Nuclear Regulatory Authority (ANRA) 24/7 online.
“Nuclear and Radiation Safety Center” CJSC continues to actively participate in the process of raising the level of radiation safety in Armenia. For this purpose, it is continuously implemented: recovery of disused radioactive sources, identification and recovery of radioactive sources that are exempted from regulatory control, design of environmental radiation monitoring network in Armenia, installation and commissioning of monitoring stations.
