  • Operational intervention levels for reactor emergencies: IAEA recommendations Lais Alencar de Aguiar Arlene Alves dos Reis Raul dos Santos Biología OIL Reactor Emergencies Radiological Assessment The IAEA publication EPR-NPP-OILs-2017, OPERATIONAL INTERVENTION LEVELS FOR REACTOR EMERGENCIES AND METHODOLOGY FOR THEIR DERIVATION [1], provides selected default OIL values, describing a methodology for their derivation, as well as practical tools and recommendations for their use. IAEA recommends that tools and default OIL values be directly integrated into national emergency arrangements or reviewed and modified as necessary to meet the specific emergency preparedness and response arrangements. The Institute of Radiation Protection and Dosimetry (IRD) has a Radiological Assessment Team (EAR) as part of its Radiation Emergency Response System. Brazilian regulatory standards address actions for radiation emergencies encompassing necessary measures to assess public exposures, intervention levels to protect the public and recommendations for protective actions as evacuation, relocation, sheltering and food restrictions. The objective of this paper is to present a discussion on the use of these OILs, to compare them to those established by the Brazilian standards and to propose a methodology on how OILs can be used by EAR/IRD in case of an emergency at the Brazilian NPP. 2018 artículo científico 2319-0612 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=722280821004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7222 Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Proteção Radiológica - SBPR Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.6
