Description
Summary:In 2019 Technical regulations of the Eurasian economical Union “On the safety of the bottled water, including natural mineral water” TR EAES 044/201 entered into force. These regulations established strict requirements to the indicators of the radiation safety for the bottled water, including natural mineral water. Application of these requirements in practice of the sanitary service led to the ban of the use of the bottled medical-table natural mineral water from the Zheleznovodsk site (Stavropolskiy krai), exploited from the well 69-bis by the criteria of the radiation safety. This study proposes possible solutions to the problem of the regulation of the natural mineral water by the radiation factor, complying to the existing requirements on the radiation safety as well as the proposals of the Institute of Radiation Hygiene on the changes in the Technical regulation TR EAES 044/201 and introduction of the requirements on the radiation safety of the natural mineral water in the legislation of the Russian Federation.
