General Conclusions

Measurements and assessments carried out under the Project provided general 
corroboration of the levels of surface contamination for caesium as reported in the 
official maps that were made available to the Project. Analytical results from a 
limited set of soil samples obtained by the Project teams corresponded to the surface 
contamination estimates for plutonium but were lower than those for strontium.

The concentrations of radionuclides measured in drinking water and, in most cases, 
in food from the areas investigated were significantly below guideline levels for 
radionuclide contamination of food moving in international trade and in many cases 
were below the limit of detection.
