The radiation survey of the ambient environment was conducted using two gamma detectors and the measurement results were used in the computation of the mean external radiation dose rate, mean weighted dose rate, annual effective dose and the collective effective dose, which are 69 nGy h, 0.447 mSv y, 237 μSv and 0.126 × 10 man Sv y, respectively. A hyper purity germanium (HPGe) detector was use...
