and conditions, in addition to taking advantage of technologies and practices
developed in response to past events that might be applicable.
6. Waste management appears to be a nearly universal problem in past radiological
and nuclear events. Thus, it seems appropriate to include waste management in
pre-event recovery planning.
7. It will be necessary to plan for long-term environmental and public health monitoring, including infrastructure, food production and processing, food chains,
and more. In addition to collecting valuable information, such monitoring can
also give the public confidence that these issues are being addressed properly.
