Workshop on NORM and Building Materials

HERCA, with the support of CSN, ASN, and NRPA, organised a Workshop on NORM and Building Materials. This workshop took place on 24-26 May 2016 in Bergen (Norway).

HERCA members’ organizations exchanged on the transposition of the specific requirements of the Directive 2013/59/Euratom (Euratom-BSS) dealing with NORM and Building Materials.

HERCA issued a “Common understanding of the BSS requirements and recommendations” in June 2017 detailling recommendations regarding NORM activities and legacy contamination and gamma radiation from building materials.

HERCA plans to exchange with EC on the different issues raised.
