Legislation for the public. e dose limit foreseen by NCRP for PFNA inspection
systems in one irradiation is 1.0 mSv and may be raised to 5.0 mSv, if necessary,
to achieve national security objectives.
It is worth remarking that the probability of inadvertently irradiating a
stowaway hidden in the cargo container, with an Eritr@C system, should be
almost negligible, given the availability of the prior x-ray image of the container
content.

When considering possible alteration of foodstu nutritional and organoleptic
properties following is of importance. For what concerns irradiation of food-
