Seizures of orphan sources

The seizure of the orphan source is the finding of an unknown or abandoned source of ionizing radiation outside the workplace authorized to handle resources. If you find an unknown or abandoned ionizing radiation source, contact the SÚJB and the Czech Police and the RAW Management Center. Alternatively, contact with SÚJB and the Police of the Czech Republic can be arranged for you by us.

The emergency group of ÚJV Řež locates the source, ensures the radiation protection of the persons, ensures the removal for further processing and after the removal, it will carry out the measurement of the place of the finding.
