Information about influence of the Mochovce NPP on the environment, February 2009

In this paper results of monitoring of chemical gaseous and liquid effluents into the Hron River as well as of radiation monitoring of Mochovce NPP Units 1 and 2 are presented. The radioactive effluents into atmosphere within February 20098 were: 0.16 MBq of aerosoles, 0.01 MBq of iodine-131, and 130 GBq of rare gases. For the period January - February 2009 these radioactive effluents into atmosphere represented 0.41 MBq (0.00024% of annually limit (AL)) of aerosoles, 0.017 MBq (0.000025% of AL) of iodine-131, and 239 GBq (0.0058% of AL) of rare gases. The radioactive effluents into recipient of Hron River within February 2009 were: 1.113 TBq of tritium, and 0.86 MBq of corrosive and fission products. For the period January - February 2009 these radioactive effluents into recipient of Hron River represented 2.331 TBq (19.4% of AL) of tritium; 1.5 MBq (0.136% of AL) of corrosive and fission products. Dose equivalents rate for the villages in surroundings of the Mochovce NPP in February 2009 are published. Chemical effluents are also reported.
