Abstract
Systematic and continuous monitoring 14C activity in atmospheric CO2 and biological samples in the vicinity of the Krško Nuclear Power Plant (NEK) in Slovenia has been performed since 2006. The aim of the monitoring was to determine 14C distribution in a close vicinity of the power plant and to estimate a possible contribution of NEK to the effective dose to the local population through food chain. This paper describes a model of food origins developed for the purpose of estimating the effective dose from ingestion of 14C via local food. Some other approaches of diet estimation are also discussed. The slightly increased 14C specific activity in plants very close to NEK could not change significantly the effective dose to the local population due to ingestion of 14C when compared to the effective dose from the ingestion of natural 14C.
