Art. 18 Off-site limits 14
1 For the purpose of environmental monitoring, the Federal Council shall specify off-site limits for radionuclides and for direct radiation. 2 It shall specify the off-site limits so that, according to the standards of science and technology or based on experience, exposure to radiation below these limits does not endanger human beings, animals or plants, their communities or habitats. 3 For radionuclides in foodstuffs, the maximum concentrations in terms of the foodstuffs legislation apply. 14 Amended by Annex No II 5 of the Foodstuffs Act of 20 June 2014, in force since 1 May 2017 (AS 2017 249; BBl 2011 5571). |
