Assessment of the environmental contamination and the resulting radiation exposure of the population was an important part of the International Chernobyl Project in 1990–1991. This project was designed to assess the measures that the then USSR Government had taken to enable people to live safely in contaminated areas, and to evaluate the measures taken to safeguard human health there. It was organized by the IAEA under the auspices of an International Advisory Committee with the participation of the Commission of the European Communities (CEC), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the International Labour Organisation (ILO), the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR), the World Health Organization (WHO) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). The IAEA has also been engaged in further studies in this area through projects such as the one on validation of environmental model predictions (VAMP) and through its technical co-operation programme.

    2.2 Ukraine Aviation Key airport information may also be found at: World Aero Data Website Ukraine inherited a significant aircraft manufacturing industry from the USSR, with the Antonov design bureau and related factories as its main component. Ukrainian and EU aerospace industries have a major interest to increase their cooperation. The envisaged agreement could create a new framework for industrial aviation relations between the Ukraine and the EU which could accompany the restructuring and modernisation of the Ukrainian aerospace industry. Page 1 Kyiv-Boryspil (KBP) was the largest Ukrainian airport servicing close to 60% of the country's commercial air traffic. Over 8.65 million passengers flew through Boryspil in 2016, a 18.8% growth compared with 2015. The airport served 12,9 million passengers in 2015 At present, there are 45 operating civil airports (including heliports) in Ukraine. Out of them, 14 airports receive domestic flights from Kyiv the capital of Ukraine on a regular basis. 18 airports have been assigned international status: Boryspil Dnipropetrovsk Zaporizhzhia Ivano-Frankivsk Izmail Kyiv Kryvyi Rih Lymanske Luhansk Lviv Mariupol Mykolaiv Odesa Rivne Simferopol Uzhhorod Kharkiv Chernivtsi The following airports covered are capable of handling wide body passenger aircraft and heavy freighters: Kiev (Boryspil Airport) can be considered as the main international air hub of the country with all related services and facilities available for offloading, handling, storing and clearing of the humanitarian cargoes.

The huge genetic diversity of wild and cultivated wheats has attracted interest from scientists all over the world. Methods. Pedigree analysis was performed for a Evolution events leaded to speciation in genus Triticum selection of the mutants. Genetic analysis (analysis of L. were caused by spontaneous hybridisation and crosses) of the mutant lines was performed to investigate environmental influence. All these events over the the genetic control of the particular phenotypic centuries have developed the current genetic diversity of characteristics. Acid-PAGE electrophoresis [2] was used wheat. In this process of evolution a key role has been to check the purity of lines and accessions and to played by mutations, without which it would be difficult confirm their pedigree. to explain the existence of a number of species, varieties and lines of the genus Triticum L [1]. It is known that in nature mutations occur quite rarely. In order to develop RESULTS AND DISCUSSION new mutants for research and breeding chemical mutagens and ionizing radiation have been utilised. The varieties Bilotserkivska 47, Poliska 70, Myronivska 808 and Kyianka had stable morphological characteristics before exposure to ionizing radiation.

    E1756 Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized MITIGATION PLAN AND MONITORING PLAN FOR ROAD SAFETY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT UKRAINE Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Introduction The main project development objective is to reduce road transport costs, and improve access and road safety along Ukraine’s main road network. Ukraine has potential to become an important transit country given its geographic location between Russia and other CIS1 states on the one hand and the EU market on the other. While European priority corridors are being improved using EU funds, it is crucial to complement this effort along corridors that are of domestic and regional importance, to get a maximum return on these major infrastructure investments. The proposed project focuses on rehabilitating a key national transport corridor between Boryspil and Lubny; a section of the M-3 express motorway Kiyv-Kharkiv-Dovzhansky linking industrial areas located in the eastern part of the country to the EU main road network. This project includes 3 main components: Component A: Road Rehabilitation of a 128 kilometer section (Borispil-Lubny) of the Kyiv-Kharkiv- Dovzhansky highway (M3), Component B: Road safety improvement, Component C: Capacity Building. The proposed Ukraine Roads and Safety Improvement Project is in full compliance with all environmental requirements of the Government of Ukraine and the World Bank. In accordance

  • Chernobyl Experience in the Field of Retrospective Dosimetry
    CHERNOBYL EXPERIENCE IN THE FIELD OF RETROSPECTIVE DOSIMETRY Vadim Chumak and Elena Bakhanova Research Center for Radiation Medicine AMS Ukraine, Kiev, Ukraine [email protected] INTRODUCTION The Chernobyl accident, which occurred on April 26, 1986 at the nuclear power plant (NPP) located less than 150 km north of Kiev, is the largest nuclear accident ever. Unprecedented scale of the accident was determined not only by the amount of released activity, but also by a number of population and workers involved and, therefore, exposed to enhanced doses of ionising radiation [1]. The population of the 30-km exclusion zone numbering about 116,000 persons of all ages and both genders was evacuated within days and weeks after the accident. Emergency workers called "liquidators of the accident" or liquidators (males age 20-50) were involved into clean-up and recovery for 5 years and their total number is estimated as 600,000, of whom about 300,000 are Ukrainian citizens [2]. Due to an unexpected and excessively large scale accident, none of residents had personal dosimeters, coverage with personal dosimetry of liquidators was not total, dosimetry techniques and practices were far from the optimum [3]. As a result, an acute need for retrospective dose assessment was dictated by radiation protection and research considerations. This need was responded by implementation of wide scale dose reconstruction efforts, which covered main exposed cohorts and encompassed broad variety of newly developed methods: analytical (time-and-motion), modelling, biological and physical (EPR spectroscopy of teeth, thermoluminescence (TL) of quartz). The paper summarizes experience of Research Center for Radiation Medicine (RCRM) in the field of retrospective dosimetry of large cohorts of exposed population and professionals.
