SCHEDULE 7Requirements for water bottled and labelled as “spring water” and bottled drinking water including prescribed concentrations or values of parameters
PART 4Parametric values for radon, tritium and indicative dose (ID)
Table D:
Item | Parameter | Unit of Measurement | Maximum Concentration or Value |
|---|---|---|---|
1. | Radon | Bq/l | 100(1) |
2. | Tritium | Bq/l | 100(2) |
3. | Indicative Dose | mSv | 0.10 |
(1) Remedial action is deemed to be justified on radiological protection grounds, without further consideration, where radon concentrations exceed 1000 Bq/l. | |||
(2) Elevated levels of tritium may indicate the presence of other artificial radionuclides. If the tritium concentration exceeds its parametric value, an analysis of the presence of other artificial radionuclides is required. | |||
