ATOMIC ENERGY COUNCIL

ANNUAL REPORT 2014/2015

To regulate peaceful applications of ionizing radiation in Uganda for the protection and safety of the public and the environment from the dangers resulting from ionizing radiation

FOREWARD

The Atomic Energy Council was established by the Atomic Energy Act No. 24 of 2008, Laws of Uganda, to regulate the peaceful applications of ionizing radiation in the country. The Council consists of a policy organ with five Council members headed by the Chairperson and a full time Secretariat headed by the Secretary. The Council members are appointed by the Minister.

During the reporting period, the Council extended its services to various parts of the country ranging from registering facilities that use radiation sources, authorizing of operators, monitoring occupational workers, carrying out inspections of facilities among others.

The Council made achievements which include developing safety guides for medical and industrial practices, establishing systems of notifications, authorizations, inspections and enforcement, establishing national and international collaborations with other regulatory bodies and acquisition of some equipment among others. The Council also participated in the IAEA General Conference.

Among other challenges, funding was the major constraint to the implementation of the Act and the regulations by the Council. This was coupled with inadequate equipment and insufficient number of staff. The Council will focus on institutional development, establishing partnerships and collaborations and safety and security of radioactive sources in the FY 2015/2016.

The Council would like to thank the government and in particular the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development (MEMD), the International Atomic Energy Agency, United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission and other organizations and persons who have helped Council in executing its mandate.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The mandate of the AEC is to regulate the peaceful applications of ionizing radiation so as to provide for the protection and safety of individuals, society and the environment from the dangers resulting from ionizing radiation. In Uganda, atomic energy is used in medical, industry, agriculture, research and education institutions.

In this reporting Financial Year 2014/2015, a number of achievements were registered. These include; extending our services to different regions of the country, streamlining regulatory processes and procedures, enhancement of human resource skills, public awareness and recruitment of more staff among others

During the period AEC registered 121 radiation sources,196 facilities were inspected, 78 notifications and application forms were received and assessed, 109 licenses and permits were issued, and 273 radiation workers monitored. The AEC Secretariat currently comprises 31 staff of which 17 are technical and 14 are administrative. In regard to capacity building, 1 staff was sent for long term training. Remarkably, the updated inventory of radiation sources now stands at 121 for radioactive materials and 480 for radiation generators.

Despite the above achievements, the secretariat encountered some hindrances that disrupted the smooth operations of its planned activities. These hindrances included, limited knowledge in areas of radiation protection and safety by some operators, inadequate inspection vehicles and equipment and inadequate funds to meet operational costs to mention but a few.

I am grateful to the top management of Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development (MEMD) for the financial support extended to Council. Additionally, I wish to thank our development partners such as the IAEA, USNRC, USDOE, KINGS, KINS among others for the financial, advisory services and training opportunities extended to Council. It is through your support that we registered a number of achievements as indicated in this report.

I wish also to thank the Council members for their support and guidance throughout the financial year 2014/15. I thank all staff members at the Secretariat for their dedication to take Council to greater heights.

Lastly, I thank our clients and other stakeholders for the support and cooperation they have given us to execute our mandate.

It is now my honour to present to you this report which provides detailed achievements, developments and challenges of the AEC in this reporting Financial Year.

Thank you, Deogratias

1.4 Governance

1.4.1The Council The Council is the policy organ of the AEC. The Council members are appointed by the Minister of Energy and Mineral Development in accordance with the Atomic Energy Act No. 24 of 2008, Laws of Uganda. The Council comprises five (5) members (Appendix 1) and the Secretary who is an ex- officio member of the Council as well as the Chief Executive Officer of AEC. The Council governs AEC on behalf of the Government of Uganda. The Council’s functions and responsibilities are set out in the Atomic Energy Act No. 24 of 2008.

The Council is committed to ensuring the highest standards of corporate conduct and accountability in accordance with the best practice principles of corporate governance and these principles are applied throughout all levels of AEC.

1.4.2 Council Committees The Council established committees with accordance to Section 11 of the AEA, 2008. These are governed by terms of reference developed by the Council with the responsibility to make recommendations to the Council on all matters under consideration.

The Council committees are: 1. The Finance, Planning and Administration Committee (FPAC) which guides the Council on policy matters regarding finance and planning. 2. The Human Resources Committee (HRC) which guides the Council on policy matters of human capital policy such as: recruitment, retention, development, rewards, evaluation, promotions and discipline. 3. The Technical Committee (TC) which guides Council on policy matters such as technical infrastructure, systems of inspections, regulatory operations and requirements among others. 4. The Audit Committee (AC) which guides Council policy in its oversight role such as internal audit quality, controls, risk management, financial reporting, transparency and external audit quality. 5. The Legal and Corporate Affairs Committee (LCAC) which guides Council in policy matters such as legal matters, contracts, collaborations and partnership.

The Council delegates its authority to committees to deal with specific aspects of its responsibilities. Each Committee’s terms of reference set out the committees’ responsibilities, scope of authority, composition and procedures to be followed. The minutes of the meetings of these Committees are made available to all Council members on a timely basis.

1.4.3 Organisational Structure The governing body of the AEC is the Council which consists of five members appointed by the Minister of Energy and Mineral Development (Appendix 1). The Council is headed by the Chairman whereas the Secretariat is headed by the Secretary & Chief Executive Officer who is in charge of day to day activities of the AEC. Although the establishment of the AEC is 51 employees, only 31 staff have been recruited as of now. A number of key positions in the establishment remain unfulfilled. On the basis of gender and current establishment, 34% of the AEC workforce is female. One of the recommendations in the AEC Strategic Plan 2016-2020 was to develop a new organizational structure. Figure 1 below shows the proposed AEC organizational Structure.

14.4 Strategic plan The first Strategic Plan for the Atomic Energy Council (AEC) covering the next five year period effective 1st July 2015 to 30th June 2020 has seen the Atomic Energy Council establish structures and step its compliance audits to ensure adherence to the set Atomic Energy Regulations all intended to make sure that society and environment is free from the dangers of ionizing radiation. In the next five years the Council will focus on consolidation of its regulatory function, expand its scope to include the proposed nuclear power energy programs and others critical areas in which the Atomic Energy Council (AEC) must fulfil its Mandate, execute its Mission and realize its Vision of becoming a center of excellence in regulating ionizing radiation. To deliver an environment with efficient safeguards against dangers of ionizing radiation will require AEC to consolidate its core functionalities: Atomic energy regulation and safety; radioactive waste management; radiation protection and developing requisite competences and capabilities. Challenges in these areas have been scoped and prioritized in the Plan and specific projects have been identified for implementation over the planned period. The Government of Uganda identified nuclear energy as one of the energy sources to be exploited to close the current energy gap. Energy, particularly electricity, is a vital public commodity needed to support modern life. It is a mandated responsibility of AEC to ensure that nuclear energy is provided safely, securely and with minimal environmental impact. Ensuring high standards of safety in the use of nuclear energy will require the development of effective and efficient regulation, and improving adherence to the set AEC professional standards of nuclear safety. The AEC will in the next five years develop institutional capabilities and knowledge base required to assess the siting of nuclear power plants and other civilian nuclear installations, while taking care of the radioactive waste and sources out of regulatory control. Regional and International co-operation will play an essential role in this field to maintain safety and addressing existing and future safety and regulatory issues. AEC will promote strategic partnership with regional and international regulatory agencies to further the peaceful use of ionizing radiation in Uganda. This strategic plan therefore seeks to promote institutional development and collaborations with strategic partners to enhance its capacity to deliver on its mandate of ensuring safe and secure use of ionizing radiation.

1.4.5 Functions of the AEC The functions of the AEC as per section 9 of the Atomic Energy Act No. 24 of 2008 are as follows: a) To define the exposures of ionising radiation that are excluded from the application of the Act on the basis of their not being amenable to regulatory control; b) To issue authorisations and grant exemptions for the possession and use of radiation sources; c) To define the detailed obligations, including financial conditions, to be imposed on persons who undertake any practice under the Act; d) To conduct inspections to assess radiation safety and security conditions and compliance with the Act and the regulations and other requirements specified in an authorization; e) To take such action as is necessary to enforce the requirements of the Act and of any Regulations or authorizations; f) To ensure that corrective action is taken if unsafe or potentially unsafe conditions are detected; g) To ensure proper documentation, storage and retrieval of records relating to the safety of facilities and activities of ionising radiation; h) To establish and inform authorised persons of any requirements for systematic safety reassessment or periodic safety review; i) To prescribe and collect fees for authorisations, inspections and other related services; j) To advise other governmental authorities and organizations on matters within the competence of the Council; k) To assist in emergency responses to radiological incidents and accidents; l) To initiate, recommend or provide support on intervention relating to radiological emergencies, as may be appropriate; m) To maintain contact for information exchange and cooperation with regulatory bodies of other countries and relevant international organizations; n) To establish appropriate mechanisms to inform the public about the regulatory process and the radiation safety aspects of regulated practices; o) To monitor and appraise radiation workers, the public and the environment on the extent of radiation exposure; p) To ensure proper collection and dissemination of information and advice to the public generally, and to authorized persons in particular, regarding measures necessary or desirable to be taken to reduce exposure to prescribed limits; q) To perform any other function that is incidental or consequential to its functions under the Act.

2.0 REGULATORY FUNCTIONS

AEC regulates practises that involve or include the production, processing, handling, use, holding, storage, transport or disposal of natural and artificial radioactive material and devices emitting ionising radiations in medical, industrial, agricultural and research fields. These include; a) Medical applications/ practices  Plain X-ray Machine  Fluoroscopy units  Mammography  Computed Tomography  Radiotherapy  Brachytherapy  Nuclear Medicine  Dental X-ray machines b) Industrial  Nuclear gauges ( Moisture, Level and Density gauges)  Well logging  Industrial Radiography  Baggage scanners.  Industrial X-ray. c) Research  Educational institutions  Agricultural research  Pest and disease control  Waste resources

AEC is mandated to perform the following functions as briefly described in section 2.1:

2.1 Inspections

2.1.1 Radiation Safety Compliance The law mandates AEC to conduct inspections using a risk-based approach to assess radiation safety and security conditions and compliance with the Act along with the regulations and other requirements specified in the authorization issued by AEC. In this regard therefore, the AEC conducts both announced and unannounced inspections and investigations designed to ensure that the activities it authorizes are conducted in compliance with the Atomic Energy Act No. 24 of 2008 as well as the Atomic Energy Regulations, 2012, the conditions of the licenses, and other requirements. During this reporting period, inspections targeted facilities within Kampala district, some surrounding and upcountry districts.

A total of 195 facilities were inspected (Appendix 5) for radiation safety compliance in the districts of Kampala, Wakiso, Mukono, Mubende, Mityana, Kagadi, Kibaale, Dokolo, Kaberamaido, Amolatair, Nakaseke, Gulu, Kasese, Mbale, Agago, Kotido, Kitgum, Fortportal, Bundibugyo, Kyenjojo, Rukungiri, Ntungamo, Kabale, Amuria, Moroto, Kapchorwa, Kiboga, Hoima, Masindi, Bugiri, Buliisa, Jinja, Kamuli, Zombo, Koboko, Moyo, Maracha,-Terego, Yumbe, Bukedia, Bududa, Luwero, Nakasongola, Pallisa, Manafwa, Bushenyi, Sembabule and Kayunga. The inspections covered both licensed and unlicensed facilities and included medical, industrial, research and educational institutions. This brings the number of inspected facilities at least once in the country to 51%. Below is a table showing the number of facilities inspected in district per region.

Below is the graph showing the trend of inspections conducted from 2010 to 2015.

2.1.2 Objectives of inspections

The major objectives of these inspections based on Atomic Energy Regulations, 2012 were to: a) determine whether the facility management complied with the administrative and management requirements as well as the requirements for the safety and security of radiation sources; b) determine whether the facility management ensured adequate occupational and public exposure protection; c) verify the protection and safety of workers, general public and the security of radioactive sources. d) verify the monitoring of occupationally exposed workers.

2.1.3 Summary of findings During the on-site inspections, it was found that a majority of the facilities met the basic minimum requirements. However, a few were operating below the minimum requirements. After inspection, each facility was given a detailed inspection report that stipulated the findings, requirements and recommendations to be addressed by the facility within six months from the date of receipt of the inspection report.

It was also found that most facilities did not have formally constituted Radiation Safety Committees (RSC) and formally appointed Radiation Safety Officers (RSO) as required by the Act and the Regulations. This compromised the safety and compliance status of such facilities.

Some facilities were still operating without authorization contrary to Section 32 of the Act. These were particularly required to notify the AEC and apply for authorisation.

The figures below show some AEC officers carrying out inspection of some of the medical facilities

2.2 Licensing of Practices and Sources

Under the Atomic Energy Act No. 24 of 2008, Laws of Uganda, the AEC is mandated to license, regulate and establish technical requirements for all nuclear-related activities in Uganda.

Every person whose practice involves or includes the production, processing, handling, use, holding, storage, transport or disposal of natural and artificial radioactive material and devices emitting ionising radiation must first obtain a license from the AEC.

AEC provides clarity on regulatory requirements and oversees practices using ionising radiation to ensure that they are meeting the statutory requirements.

In order to establish appropriate regulatory requirements commensurate with the activities and the risk involved, the AEC uses the graded approach to plan and carry out licensing and compliance activities. For facilities or activities where an incident or accident could have severe consequences, the AEC requires licensees to implement multiple layers of defence, in order to further minimize the likelihood of such an incident/accident. That way, if a safety system or program fails, others would be in place to keep the facility and workers safe and limit potential exposure. The AEC’s strict oversight, which included onsite inspections, ensured that licensees were operating safely and adhering to their license conditions.

The process of authorization begins with submission of notification and application form as per section 32 and 34 of the Act.

In the FY 2014/2015 (the reporting period), a total of 78 notifications and application forms were received, verified and assessed (Appendix 8). A total of 77 licenses and 32 permits were issued (Appendix 9) to 70 facilities. This represents 18% of the registered facilities in the country. Below is a graph showing the trend of licences & permits issued from 2010 to 2015

2.3 Occupational Exposure Monitoring of Radiation Workers

The AEC Act mandates the Council to monitor and appraise radiation workers, the public and environment on the extent of radiation exposure for their safety.

In this regard, the AEC continues to monitor and appraise radiation workers using Thermoluminescent Dosimeters (TLDs). The TLDs are periodically read (every 3 months), annealed and calibrated for continuous absorbed dose measurements.

A total of 44 facilities with 273 radiation workers were issued & monitored this FY as shown in Appendix 6. From AEC’s findings, there were no cases of absorbed doses higher than the regulatory limits to warrant further investigations. This shows that the radiation workers are knowledgeable about radiation protection concepts and the optimisation principle by applying the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle of radiation protection. The Council is in the process of establishing the number of radiation workers in the country to plan for their monitoring. Below is the graph showing the trend of radiation workers monitored from 2010 to 2015 and adhering to radiation safety practices.

2.4 Radiological Emergency Preparedness and Response Committee Section 57-62 of the Atomic Energy Act No. 24 of 2008, provides procedures for the establishment of National Radiological Emergency Response Committee (NRERC), its functions and the relevant stakeholders, responsibilities of the operators during Emergency situations and the general components of emergency response plans.

The Council participates in the IAEA Project RAF/9047: “Strengthening and Harmonizing National Capabilities for Response to Radiation Emergencies in the Member States”. Engineer Bezalel Kabanda, a member of the Council is the Project Counterpart. The RERC held 3 meetings in the FY 2014/2015. Membership of the committees is drawn from various Ministries, Departments and Government Agencies as stipulated by the law. Table 2: Members of the EPR committee

Each of the above government agencies nominated representatives who the AEC presented to the Minister so that the committee is officially constituted. Technical assistance was sought from the IAEA to help the committee draw a National Action Plan. The request was considered and an expert was sent to train the committee members. Additionally, AEC requires licensees to have and implement their localised radiological emergency programmes. The Committee also developed its work plan, Terms of Reference and budget for the FY 2015/2016.

2.5 Development of Regulations and Safety Guides Section 73 of the AE Act, mandates the Council to make regulations and issue directions, guidelines, codes and standards for the better carrying into effect of the provisions of the Act.

The Atomic Energy Regulations were gazetted in 2012. During the reporting period a total of eight draft regulations and guides were sent to the IAEA for advice. They include:

1) Guideline for the enforcement of Regulations 2) Guideline on occupational radiation protection 3) Guideline for the transport of radioactive material 4) Draft regulations on Nuclear Security 5) Guideline on the Management of NORM (Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials) 6) Guideline on Uranium Mining 7) Guideline on the dose limits 8) Guideline on the Management of radioactive waste including storage

This is a commendable achievement given the challenges and tasks engaged in during the FY.

2.6 Communication and Consultation with the Public and Interested Parties Social media plays a major role in informing the public about the Council mandate and activities. The AEC in the FY 2014/15 accelerated its adoption of social media tools to reinforce its online presence and to ensure timely access to safety information. The tools included facebook, twitter, and the AEC website: www.atomiccouncil.go.ug.

A communication policy is being drafted to ensure that timely and appropriate information is delivered to the stakeholders. AEC Staff also participated in the 51st Independence Day National celebrations which took place on 9/10/2014 in Kololo, Kampala. This was another effort in creating public awareness about AEC’s mandate & activities.

Below are other platforms the AE used to publicise its cause;

2.6.1 Joint Sector Review 2014/15

AEC participated in the Joint Sector Review held between 13-14 November, 2014. AEC made presentations on its regulatory activities, achievements, challenges and suggested way forward. This was followed with an exhibition for public awareness purposes during the JSR 2014.

Below is one of the pictures.

Figure 4: Chairman, Council at the JSR 2014 in Munyonyo

2.6.2 Print Media In a bid to improve public awareness on its mandate, AEC on a number of occasions in the FY 2014/15 run publications in the print media. For instance it ran a publication of facilities licensed by the Atomic Energy Council in the New vision of 16th March, 2015. The public was requested to seek services from only authorised facilities for radiation protection and safety.

2.6.3 National Liberation Day Cerebrations AEC sent seven staff to represent it at the 29th National Liberation Day celebrations which took place in Soroti district on 26/01/2015. The theme was “A Steady and Sustainable Transformation of Uganda”.

This was carried out from 2-6 February, 2015 in Mbale, Kumi and Soroti districts and from 22-26 June, 2015 in Mbarara district. The team that visited the facilities interacted with the Hospital Administrators and other technical staff at the facilities. Quality assessment was done in a total of 19 facilities in both the Eastern and Western regions.

The objective of the assessment exercise was to obtain feedback from administrators of the facilities about the inspections and identify any performance gaps to improve service delivery. The specific focus was to assess the conduct of Radiation Protection Officers (RPOs) while carrying inspections, the quality of inspections conducted and the usefulness & quality of inspection reports among others. The team used a semi-structured questionnaire, face to face interviews, probing where necessary and physical visits to some sources in some facilities.

3.3 Staff training

A Training Working Committee (TWC) was established in line with the AEC Human Resources Manual. The committee was tasked to streamline guidelines and procedures for short and long courses, implement the training and development policy, design and review the staff development plan, advice on annual training sponsorships and fellowships, identify and advise on training activities, workshops, courses and seminars among others. This Committee also discusses suitable candidates for the trainings basing on the training needs of the individuals. It consists of five (5) members; Mr. Deogratias Noah Luwalira- Secretary and CEO, Ms. Nakwaku Dorothy-Office Administrator, Mr.

Nimbashabira Natharius-RPO, Mr. Sekyanzi Deo-SRPO and Ms. Alowo Caroline-SA. Appendix 11 shows staff who were selected to attend long term trainings.

AEC has also developed a training and development policy which emphasises both long & short term trainings, targeting skills enrichment. The policy encourages and supports staff to attain their maximum potential and in so doing, it promotes equal and fair training opportunities.

3.3.1 Long term training: Three (3) staff returned from long term trainings in South Korea in the FY 2014/15, one(1) graduated in August 2015 and another staff was sponsored for a 2 years Masters’ degree in Nuclear and Power Plant Engineering in South Korea, and will be finishing in February 2017.

3.3.2 Short term training: Technical staff have also attended short term trainings. Majority of these short trainings were sponsored by IAEA in collaboration with AEC in country and abroad.

In Country Trainings a) Search and Secure of Orphan Sources training In the fourth quarter of the reporting period, AEC conducted an in-house training on Search & Secure of Orphan sources in Uganda at Amber House from 18/2/2015 to 19/2/ 2015. The objective of the training was to prepare technical officers to locate, identify, package, transport, and secure orphan radioactive sources. The training was conducted by Mr. Deogratias Noah Luwalira & Mr. John Kisaakye who had trained in Kenya at the Best Western Premier Hotel in Hurlingham Nairobi from 14th to 18th of July 2014 organised by the United States Department of Energy. This was followed by a field visit to the AEC land in Mpoma on 20/3/2015 where a practical session on search and secure of orphan sources was demonstrated. Below are some of the pictures taken during the session.

5.0 FINANCES The three official sources of Council funds as per the AEC Act No. 24, of 2008, Laws of Uganda are; a) Money appropriated by parliament for the purposes of the Council. b) Grants or donations from the government or other sources. c) Fees charged for services and activities rendered by the Council. Currently, Council is being funded under the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development through subvention. All funds were utilized to meet staff contractual obligations like salaries and to execute Council regulatory functions like carrying out inspections among others. Table 7 shows Council sources of revenue during the reporting period.

Table 7: AEC Sources of funding

Quarters GoU/MEMD Fees (ugx) Donations subtotal (ugx) (ugx) IAEA (ugx) 1 375,000,000 46,803,617 - 421,803,617 2 375,000,000 38,114,000 - 413,114,000 3 375,000,000 37,999,081 1,716,000 414,715,081 4 375,000,000 56,536,844 16,402,400 447,939,244 Sub total 1,500,000,000 179,453,542 18,118,400 1,697,571,942 GRAND TOTAL

Table 7 above demonstrates that the major source of funding is from the government through the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development. Due to the shortage of staff in the Finance & Administration department, the AEC still utilized the finance management structures of the Ministry during the reporting period. Though throughout the financial year, Council received inadequate funds for operations, the Ministry prioritized staff salaries and therefore it was of great relief that the financial year ended with no arrears for salaries despite the challenges.

Appendix 4: CATEGORIZATION OF SOURCES

The radiation sources are categorized according to the radiation risks associated with them in reference to their activity levels and dangerous values.

Category 1: Extremely dangerous: This amount of radioactive material if not safely managed or securely protected is likely to cause permanent injury to a person who handled it, or were otherwise in contact with it, for more than a few minutes. It is fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded material for a period of a few minutes to an hour. And if dispersed by a fire or explosion, it could possibly — but would be unlikely to — permanently injure or be life threatening to persons in the immediate vicinity.

There would be little or no risk of immediate health effects to persons beyond a few hundred metres away, but contaminated areas would need to be cleaned up in accordance with international standards.

Category 2: Very dangerous: This amount of radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, it is likely to cause permanent injury to a person who handled it, or is otherwise in contact with it, for a short time (minutes to hours). It could possibly be fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded radioactive material for a period of hours to days. And if dispersed by a fire or explosion, could possibly — but would be very unlikely to — permanently injure or be life threatening to persons in the immediate vicinity. There would be little or no risk of immediate health effects to persons beyond a hundred metres or so away, but contaminated areas would need to be cleaned up in accordance with international standards.

Category 3: Dangerous: This amount of radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could cause permanent injury to a person who handled it, or is otherwise in contact with it, for some hours. It could possibly — although it is unlikely — be fatal to be close to this amount of unshielded radioactive material for a period of days to weeks. And if dispersed by a fire or explosion, could possibly — but is extremely unlikely to — permanently injure or be life threatening to persons in the immediate vicinity. There would be little or no risk of immediate health effects to persons beyond a few metres away, but contaminated areas would need to be cleaned up in accordance with international standards.

Category 4: Unlikely to be dangerous: It is very unlikely that anyone would be permanently injured by this amount of radioactive material. However, this amount of unshielded radioactive material, if not safely managed or securely protected, could possibly — although it is unlikely — temporarily injure someone who handled it or were otherwise in contact with it, or who

were close to it for a period of many weeks. And if dispersed by a fire or explosion, could not permanently injure persons.

Category 5: Not dangerous:

No one could be permanently injured by this amount of radioactive material. And if dispersed by a fire or explosion, could not permanently injure persons.
