“A” means the quantity of each radionuclide listed in column 1 of Table 5 that is present in the material and waste, and

(b)

“B” means the quantity of that radionuclide specified in column 2 of Table 5.

(3)

The summation rule in respect of column 2 of Table 5 is the sum of the quotients C/D where—

(a)

“C” means the concentration of each radionuclide listed in column 1 of Table 5 that is present in the material and waste, and

(b)

“D” means the concentration of that radionuclide specified in column 3 of Table 5.
