WG1 Objectives

(modified from May 2012 document)

 Analyze the decision-aiding process based on experience

gained from past radiological emergencies and remediation efforts (e.g., post-Chernobyl; legacy sites)

 Extract lessons learned in terms of social, economic and

environmental costs

 Review and compare existing decision-aiding models  Prepare case studies for comparison of decision-aiding

models

 Provide recommendations on how to improve the

decision-aiding process for remediation planning

TRS Development – Draft TOC

Developed an independent process framework for the selection and implementation of remedial options. Based on actual methodologies applied to remediation as described during case studies presented during Kiev Interim Meeting.

Framework agrees with information provided in WS-G3.1

IAEA - MODARIA WG1 (November 11-15, 2013)

• Initiated development of an attributes list to support

decisions at the various phases of remediation

• The attributes are those critical elements that must be

considered in developing a defensible outcome or decision

• Each phase of the remediation process framework will

require many attributes be considered before moving to the next phase.

Example of attributes that will feed decision aiding process

IAEA - MODARIA WG1 (November 11-15, 2013)

MODARIA WG-1 - Vienna 2013 Outputs

 summarize literature related to the application of decision

aiding theory and completion of an annotated bibliography

 gather relevant IAEA documentation and present in a top-

down format

 develop a matrix of attributes to be considered in support

• f decisions required during various phases of remediation

 presentations regarding participating Member States

programs related to stakeholder involvement

 Video/teleconference meeting (January 2014)  Interim Meeting – tentatively scheduled for Prague (end of

June 2014)
