Abstract
A variant of the application of the norms and regulations currently operating in our country which ensure radiation safety for workers, the general public, and the environment is presented to valdiate the criteria for rehabilitation of the territory of the shore servicing bases of the naval fleet. The main normative-legal documentation on the rehabilitation of the radiation dangerous objects is analyzed and the international and domestic experience in performing such work, including radiation accidents, is examined. The quantitative criteria used in practice for the residual radioactive contamination of industrial objects and housing developments and the environment are singled out, and an attempt is made, on the basis of a generalization of the information available, to adapt individual tenets in the interests of rehabilitation of radiation dangerous shore-based objects of the fleet.
