AbstractThe work provides justification for the application on the site of the Bushehr-1 NPP in the Islamic Republic of Iran, an innovative for these conditions warning system on seismic hazard. The proposed warning system is based on the integrated monitoring of radon in order to improve safety in the operation of NPP facilities and equipment. Regulations on the application of this system in the context of subsoil monitoring at Bushehr-1 NPP should be fixed in job descriptions. This system can be used as part of seismic monitoring of other sites of nuclear power plants located in zones with increased seismicity.
KeywordsIslamic Republic of Iran, Bushehr-1 NPP, integrated radon monitoring, radon seismic station, radon monitor
