Justification of the List of Radionuclides Subject to Limitation in Airborne Discharges from Nuclear Facilities into the Atmosphere

A correct approach to the formation of an optimal list of controlled (subject to limitation) radionuclides in airborne discharges from nuclear facilities into the atmosphere has been developed and substantiated based on sample values of random variables (volumetric activities of radionuclides) obtained as a result of a series of experiments, considering the requirements of regulatory documents. The peculiarity of the proposed approach is the full involvement in the decision-making process of the results of measurements of the values of the controlled quantity, located both within the measurement range and beyond the lower limit of this range, regulated by the methods and means of measurement, as well as indicators of the reliability of radiation monitoring.
