    Title
    Monitoring of radioactivity in the Netherlands. Milk, Food and Feed – results 2020 and 2021
    Translated Title
    Monitoring van radioactiviteit in Nederland. Melk, voedsel en veevoer – resultaten 2020 en 2021
    Publiekssamenvatting
    In 2020 and 2021, the Netherlands fulfilled its annual European obligation to measure how much radioactivity is present in the environment and in food. Radioactivity levels in food and milk measured by Wageningen Food Safety Research (WFSR) were below the European export and consumption limits. The radioactivity levels in grass and feed were normal, as in previous years. All countries of the European Union are required to perform these measurements each year under the terms of the Euratom Treaty of 1957. The Netherlands performs these measurements following the guidance issued in 2000. The measurements represent the background values for radioactivity that are present under normal circumstances. They can be used as reference values, for instance, during a nuclear emergency. The results on radioactivity in the environment are reported to the European Commission by the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) on behalf of the competent authority in the Netherlands.
    In 2020 en 2021 voldeed Nederland aan de Europese verplichting om elk jaar te meten hoeveel radioactiviteit in het milieu en in voeding zit. De niveaus radioactiviteit in voedsel en melk gemeten door Wageningen Food Safety Research (WFSR(Wageningen Food Safety Research )) liggen net als in vorige jaren onder de Europese limieten voor consumptie en export. De radioactiviteitsniveaus in gras en veevoer laten een normaal beeld zien, net als de jaren ervoor. Alle landen van de Europese Unie zijn volgens het Euratom-verdrag uit 1957 verplicht om deze metingen te doen. Nederland volgt daarbij de aanbevelingen uit 2000 op om de metingen op een bepaalde manier uit te voeren. De metingen leveren achtergrondwaarden op, ofwel radioactiviteitsniveaus die er onder normale omstandigheden zijn. Deze waarden kunnen bij bijvoorbeeld calamiteiten of rampen als referentie dienen. Het RIVM brengt namens de Autoriteit Nucleaire Veiligheid en Stralingsbescherming (ANVS) verslag uit aan de Europese Unie over radioactiviteit in het milieu.
