Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) have implemented environmental radiation monitoring since 1960s around different kinds of nuclear facilities such as research reactors, MOX fuel fabrication development facilities and the first spent fuel reprocessing facility for commercial NPPs and so on. I summarize the environmental monitoring methodology from planning to evaluation comprehensively as a guide book based on our experience and referring to the latest information. This guide book contained various basic knowledge about history of environmental radiation surveillances, techniques of radiation measurement and analysis of environmental samples such as airborne materials, precipitation, fallout, soil, sediment in river and lake, drinking water, terrestrial water, vegetables, milk, pasture, sea water, seabed sediment, marine product, index samples, and including with related to fundamental knowledges like an exposure evaluation for the public and quality assurance(QA), and some regulations. In particular, I include the emergency environmental radiation monitoring with response to the accident of Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant and Tokyo Electric Power Company Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station. Finally, I note some topics on the environmental impact study that I have experienced.

In order to review an operator's "Decommissioning Plan" applied to the regulatory body for approval accurately and quickly, Public Dose Assessment Code for Decommissioning of Nuclear Reactors (DecDose) was developed. It evaluates public exposure doses for each year during dismantling activities in accordance with the "Decommissioning Plan". DecDose takes account of various exposure pathways such as cloudshine, surface ground deposition, ingestion of seafood, and direct and skyshine radiation based on the quantity of radionuclides discharged to the environment, and containers stored in the facility in consideration of cutting and storage of components and structures. Example evaluations with DecDose have shown that it is a useful tool for assessing public dose during decommissioning of nuclear reactors.
