A forest Fire that occurred in the area of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant poses no danger to the position of a hypothetical radiological consequences For people, said Last news Director of the Institute of matters reserved for the development of nuclear energy of the Russian Academy of Sciences, member-correspondent of the Russian Academy of Sciences Leonid Bolshov. A fire in the area of alienation broke out yesterday afternoon on an area of about 320 hectares, to his destruction have attracted more than 300 people And 51 of the vehicles, as well as among them airplanes And helicopters. In gschs of Ukraine Last news first claimed that the Fire has no threat To residents And will not affect the background radiation. Acting Head of the SSES of the Zoryan Shkiriak said that the Fire did not threaten the Shelter, erected over emergency the fourth unit of the Chernobyl NPP. On Wednesday, the Fire turned out to localize, put out his promise in a few days. "When there were forest fires in 2010 And burned, as well as among them, And the Bryansk forests, our Institute developed a special method of understanding the effects of fires, carried out the appropriate calculations. And then risk have been identified, " said Bolshov. currently IBRAE Experts used the same technique For the Chernobyl forests, he said. "The result obtained is the same most - contaminated areas impact on the radiation background will be small fractions of the background" - said the scientist. There are quite obvious reasons, added Bolshov. "in 30 years of radiation in the soil is placed not on the surface, she sank down into the depths. This place has already grown new plants, which contains a small radiation even more precisely - very small. In addition, the effect And the dilution effect ", - he explained. "for this reason, the sensors that are placed everywhere, And in the Chernobyl area, including Pripyat, can't respond. So they do not respond - today we checked the sensor in Pripyat, he's in the last 2 days readings do not change. Going all the way And has to be on science. When burning wood, I need To panic from the position of the radiation do not see " - said the scientist. Bolshov added that the Fire also threatens the storage of spent nuclear fuel, located in the vicinity of Chernobyl, as it's made out of concrete." There is nothing to burn, " said Director of IBRAE.
