There is no danger of gamma radiation in Poland
Spokesperson of the Polish National Nuclear Agency calms the public, stating that there is
absolutely no danger in gamma radiation in Poland. The media raised the issue
of radioactivity after information of problems faced by nuclear power
generation unit in Ukraine, located approx. 700 km from Polish border.
On December 3, 2014 media informed
about the incident in the nuclear power plant on Ukraine, located approx. 700
km from the Polish border. According to the information Polish National Nuclear
Energy Agency collect from the Ukrainian nuclear regulatory authority, there
had been problems with the turbine and power generator at the production block,
which had to be turned off (this has resulted in the need to keep the entire
block, including the nuclear reactor itself).
Malfunction occurred outside the
reactor building and was not accompanied by any release of radioactive
substances into the environment.
The media were very concerned about
the eventual pollution and contamination on the Polish side. Groundlessly, as
shows the official statement of Polish National Nuclear Energy Agency.
"There is absolutely no
danger" – stressed Monika Kaczyńska,
spokesperson of PNNEA. The official communicate states that “(…) radiation level in Poland does not deviate
from the norm; rumors about the alleged radioactive contamination after fault
in a nuclear power plant in Ukraine does not have any basis”.
Radiation level in Poland is
constantly monitored by the Center for Radiation Emergencies. Based on data
from the stations for early detection of radioactive contamination, agency
decides upon eventual next steps. At the moment, the radiation is not posing
any danger to human beings.
