Modernization of the System to Deter Illicit Trafficking of Nuclear and Radioactive Materials at the State Borders of the Republic of Belarus

This project provided three mobile laboratories for immediate response to radiological incidents. Once a high level of radiation is detected at a border checkpoint, the laboratory arrives on the scene and identifies the isotope contained in the goods or vehicles. The project also established a geo-information radiation monitoring system, which enables the mobile laboratories to transmit measured data to the command center and external agencies to make swift and qualified decisions on a further response. Furthermore, modern radiation detectors were provided for a patrol of 34 simplified checkpoints and green borders (unattended border area) in Belarus.
