1.—(1) In this Schedule—
“article” includes a part of an article;
“Bq” means becquerels;
“contamination” occurs where a substance or article is so affected by—
absorption, admixture or adhesion of radioactive material or radioactive waste, or
the emission of neutrons or ionising radiation,
as to become radioactive or to possess increased radioactivity;
“disposal” in relation to waste includes its removal, deposit, destruction, discharge (whether into water or into the air or into a sewer or drain or otherwise) or burial (whether underground or otherwise) and “dispose of” is to be construed accordingly;
“m”, where it appears after a radionuclide, means a radionuclide in a metastable state of radioactive decay in which gamma photons are emitted;
“mobile radioactive apparatus” means any apparatus, equipment, appliance or other thing which is radioactive material and—
is constructed or adapted for being transported from place to place, or
is portable and designed or intended to be used for releasing radioactive material into the environment or introducing it into organisms;
“nuclear site” means—
any site in respect of which a nuclear site licence is for the time being in force, or
any site in respect of which, after the revocation or surrender of a nuclear site licence, the period of responsibility of the licensee has not yet come to an end,
and “licensee”, when used in relation to a nuclear site, and “period of responsibility” have the same meaning as in the Nuclear Installations Act 1965 M1;
“premises” includes any land, whether covered by buildings or not, including any place underground and any land covered by water;
“relevant liquid” means a liquid which—
is non-aqueous, or
is classified (or would be so classified in the absence of its radioactivity) under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures M2 as having any of the following hazard classes and hazard categories (as defined in that Regulation)—

(2) In this Schedule, where any reference is made to a substance or article possessing a concentration or quantity of radioactivity which exceeds the value specified in a column in either of Tables 1 and 2, [F1or any of Tables 4A, 5 or 7] in Part 6 of this Schedule, that value is exceeded if—
(a)where only one radionuclide which is listed or described in the relevant table is present in the substance or article, the concentration or quantity of that radionuclide exceeds the concentration or quantity specified in the appropriate entry of that column in that table, or
(b)where more than one radionuclide which is listed or described in the relevant table is present, the sum of the quotient values of all such radionuclides in the substance or article, as determined by the summation rule following the table (as it applies to that column), is greater than one,
and any reference to a concentration or quantity of radioactivity not exceeding such a value shall be construed accordingly.
