dc.description.abstract | The Australian Nuclear Science 8 Technology Organisation (ANSTO) has a long history of emergency preparedness and response arrangements. These arrangements based on international best practices and accepted by emergency service organisations and government authorities; continue to ensure effective response to possible occurrences, ranging from small local incidents through to the most severe postulated accident. Fortunately, real life radiological or nuclear incidents do not occur often and ANSTO's emergency arrangements include provision for regular exercises to evaluate response and escalation procedures, inter-agency operability, and further improve response capabilities. ANSTO's radiation protection expertise has regularly been called on to provide local, national and international support for a diverse range of radiological emergency preparedness and response activities. The scope of this presentation is to highlight contribution of some of ANSTO's emergency response capabilities to the Australian and international community. | en_AU |
