1. INTRODUCTION

This report presents the results of the environmental monitoring programme
carried out during 1989 by staff of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and
Food's (MAFF's) Directorate of Fisheries Research (DFR), Lowestoft. The monitoring
programme complements the Ministry's Terrestrial Radioactivity Monitoring
Programme (TRAMP) (MAFF, 1990) in supporting the Ministry's functions under the
Radioactive Substances Act, 1960 (Great Britain -Parliament, 1960). The DFR
programme is set up to verify the satisfactory control of liquid radioactive waste
discharges to the aquatic environment, and to ensure that the resulting public
radiation exposure is within nationally-accepted limits. The monitoring is
independent of similar programmes carried out by nuclear site operators as a
condition of their authorisations to discharge radioactive wastes. This report also
includes results of monitoring carried out on behalf of departments of the Scottish
Office, the Welsh Office, the Department of the Environment for Northern Ireland
and the Channel Islands States. Where appropriate, the information presented is
supplemented by results from our extensive programme of research into the
behaviour of radioactivity in the aquatic environment. During 1989, the special
programme of monitoring of the freshwater environment was continued in
connection with the accident at Chernobyl, USSR on 26 April 1986, and the
results are presented in this report
