SUMMARY:Joint BVS-ABR-NVS symposium: Implementation of the new Basic Safety Standards
DESCRIPTION:Op 5 december 2013 zijn de nieuwe basisnormen voor de bescherming tegen de gevaren van blootstelling aan ioniserende straling door de Raad van de Europese Unie vastgesteld. De in deze richtlijn vastgelegde veiligheidsnormen dienen uiterlijk 6 februari 2018 in de nationale regelgeving van de lidstaten te zijn geïmplementeerd en in werking te zijn getreden. Het symposium wordt georganiseerd door de NVS in samenwerking met de Belgische zustervereniging BVS/ABR. De voertaal van het symposium is Nederlands of Engels. \nHet symposium start met een inleidende voordracht waarin onder meer zal worden ingegaan op het Euratom-verdrag\, welke uitgaven van de basisnormen (BSS) voor gingen\, de te onderscheiden onderdelen en de belangrijkste wijzigingen die in de nieuwe BSS zijn geïmplementeerd. In de hierop volgende voordrachten zal specifiek worden ingegaan op een aantal van deze nieuwe ontwikkelingen. Voor de onderwerpen wordt verwezen naar onderstaand programma. \nLocatie \nHet symposium wordt gehouden in De Doelen\, Kruisplein 40\, 3012 CC Rotterdam. Deze locatie is gemakkelijk met het openbaar vervoer te bereiken. Wanneer u het station Rotterdam CS aan de voorzijde verlaat\, bevindt De Doelen zich schuin links voor u op ca. 10 minuten loopafstand. Voor deelnemers die liever met de auto komen\, is ruime parkeergelegenheid voorhanden in een van de nabij De Doelen gelegen parkeergarages. \nTentoonstelling \nTijdens het symposium zullen verschillende bedrijven hun producten presenteren. Ook kunt u bij hen terecht voor eventuele vragen. \nProgramma \n\nOpening symposium (Carolien Leijen\, Voorzitter NVS)\nOverzicht Basic Safety Standards (Augustin Janssens)\nVergunningen\, registraties\, meldingen (Ton Vermeulen\, ANVS\, Den Haag)\nInvoering noodsituaties (Frank Hardeman\, SCK CEN\, Mol)\nInvoering systeem RPE/RPO (Barbara Gothelp\, ANVS\, Den Haag)\nEffecten op de medische toepassingen (Lodewijk van Bladel\, FANC\, Brussel)\nRegels voor bouwmaterialen (Govert de With\, NRG\, Arnhem)\nBestaande situaties: radon (Hans Vanmarcke\, SCK CEN\, Mol)\nVrijstelling en vrijgave (Teun van Dillen\, RIVM\, Bilthoven)\nAfsluiting symposium (Patrick Smeesters\, Voorzitter BVS/ABR)\n\nDo you want to view the slides of the presentations? Join BVS-ABR as a member!

This will now cover all exposure situations\, including emergencies and existing exposure situations resulting from natural radiation sources. \nSocietal issues in radiation protection \nIn many countries\, ionising radiation and radioactivity are perceived negatively by the population\, which at the same time sees no harm in their use for medical applications and is not aware of the exposure to natural radiation sources. The evolution of nuclear energy production is country-dependent\, and the perception of radioactive waste remains an issue. Topics open for debate: stakeholder involvement\, ethics\, perception and decision making\, communication and information\, transparency \nThe impact of medical applications of ionising radiation\, present situation and future trends \nMedical exposures to ionising radiation are increasing worldwide. One may wonder whether the justification and optimisation approaches are systematically implemented in daily practice. New issues such as patient doses from hybrid imaging systems\, eye lens doses received by medical staff etc. also merit discussion and debate. \nLessons learnt from incidents and accidents (medical and nuclear sectors) \nThe lessons learnt from Fukushima and from the Chernobyl contaminated areas\, more than 25 years after the accident\, are of significance to policy makers. Less known are accidents in the industry\, mainly in radiography\, and in medical therapy. What lessons can be learnt? How to avoid accidents? How to deal with contaminated areas? \nHow to raise interest of young people for radiation protection? \nIn many countries\, the interest of youngsters in scientific studies is limited\, and multidisciplinary sciences such as radiation protection have even more problems to attract people. How to make radiation protection attractive? What Education/Training is needed? \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Guided Visits\nA choice of 3 guided tours are proposed\, each one visiting a historical and cultural city of Belgium. The tours will be organised on Monday 8th April 2013 in the afternoon. Participants interested in one of these tours will have to arrange for their transport to the meeting point\, which will be announced later on\, and back.  \nThe registration form allows you to express your interest in one of these tours. The visits will only be organised if there is sufficient interest. Participants who have expressed their interest for any of the tours will be informed by email whether or not the tour of their interest will be organised. Participation will only be effective after confirmation. \n\nGuided walk through the old city centre of Ghent  \nGhent combines medieval views with architecture and art evolution over 8 centuries.
