The present study concerns the determination of the maximum acceptable contact dose rate per radioac- tive waste package for safekeeping at the New Radioactive Waste Interim Storage (NRWIS) of the National Centre for Scientific Research “Demokritos” (NCSR “D”). The NRWIS facility is used for temporary storage of spent/ orphan sealed sources, devices like lightning rods and primary radioactive waste. The contact dose rate per package is determined in a level that even in case the highest radiation background is built up in- side the storage facility, the doses to the workers will not exceed the maximum permissible doses. The total dose that a worker receives inside the facility should not exceed one half of the annual occupational dose constraint of 6 mSv. Furthermore in cases of the highest radiation background inside the facility, shielding calculations are performed. (EN)
