Abstract
In Brazil, the Brazilian Nuclear Energy Commission (CNEN) and Brazilian Institute of Environment and
Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA) are the agencies responsible for the execution, regulation and control
of nuclear and environmental policies, respectively. Such regulatory activities are very comprehensive
(IBAMA) or too specific (CNEN), revealing other aspects that would, also, need to be observed so that the
management could be carried out efficiently (quality) and effectively (safety), including the three governmental
administrative levels: Federal, State and Municipal. In addition to laws, regulations, decrees and resolutions,
there are also national and international standards and guides that provide guidelines for structuring the current
management and the use of best regulatory practices. The Brazilian Multipurpose Reactor Enterprise (RMB) is a
CNEN project, complying with a Multi-Year Plan of the Brazilian Ministry of Planning, Development and
Management (MPDG). The Enterprise is being developed under the responsibility of the Directorate of
Research and Development - DPD of CNEN and will have a facility for treatment and initial temporary storage
of the radioactive waste generated by the operation of the research reactor and the activities carried out in the
associated laboratories. The RMB will be built in the city of IPER??, located in the state of S??o Paulo, near
ARAMAR Experimental Center of the Brazilian Navy.
This work aims to present the research results regarding the various aspects that regulate, legislate and
standardize the practices proposed to the Radioactive Waste Management of the RMB project.
