Division 1 Exemption

Practices may be exempted from notification either directly, on the basis of compliance with exemption levels (activity values (in Bq) or activity concentration values (in kBq kg-1)) laid down in section 2, or on the basis of higher values that, for specific applications, are established by the competent authority, satisfying the general exemption and clearance criteria set out in section 3. Practices subject to notification may be exempted from authorisation by law or general administrative act, or through an ad-hoc regulatory decision, on the basis of the information provided in conjunction with the notification of the practice and in line with general exemption criteria set out in section 3.
