There are currently no known outstanding effects for the The Public Water Supplies (Scotland) Regulations 2014, Paragraph 2.
Revised legislation carried on this site may not be fully up to date. At the current time any known changes or effects made by subsequent legislation have been applied to the text of the legislation you are viewing by the editorial team. Please see ‘Frequently Asked Questions’ for details regarding the timescales for which new effects are identified and recorded on this site.
2.—(1) Where screening of the water is carried out for certain radionuclides or for an individual radionuclide, Scottish Water must carry out an analysis of additional radionuclides if, in relation to any supply referred to in paragraph 1—
(a)one of the activity concentrations of a radionuclide referred to in the second column of the table below exceeds 20% of the corresponding derived concentration in the third column; or
(b)the tritium concentration exceeds the prescribed concentration or value for tritium.
(2) Scottish Water must, in deciding which radionuclides require to be measured for each supply, take into account all relevant information about likely sources of radioactivity.
Origin | Radionuclide (Note 1) | Derived concentration (Bq/1) | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Natural | U-238 | 3.0 | Note 2 |
U-234 | 2.8 | Note 2 | |
Ra-226 | 0.5 | ||
Ra-228 | 0.2 | ||
Pb-210 | 0.2 | ||
Po-210 | 0.1 | ||
Artificial | C-14 | 240 | |
Sr-90 | 4.9 | ||
Pu-239 / Pu-240 | 0.6 | ||
Am-241 | 0.7 | ||
Co-60 | 40 | ||
Cs-134 | 7.2 | ||

Note 1: This table includes values for the most common natural and artificial radionuclides. These are precise values, calculated for a dose of 0.1 mSv, an annual intake of 730 litres and using the dose coefficients laid down in Table (A) of Annex III to Council Directive 96/29/Euratom laying down basic safety standards for the protection of the health of workers and the general public against the dangers arising from ionizing radiation. Derived concentrations for other radionuclides may be calculated on the same basis. | |||
Note 2: This allows only for the radiological properties of uranium, not for its chemical toxicity.] |

Policy Note sets out a brief statement of the purpose of a Scottish Statutory Instrument and provides information about its policy objective and policy implications. They aim to make the Scottish Statutory Instrument accessible to readers who are not legally qualified and accompany any Scottish Statutory Instrument or Draft Scottish Statutory Instrument laid before the Scottish Parliament from July 2012 onwards. Prior to this date these type of notes existed as ‘Executive Notes’ and accompanied Scottish Statutory Instruments from July 2005 until July 2012.
