About production and conversion of uranium ores
This Law regulates features of legal relationship in case of production, conversion of uranium ores and use of products of their conversion as raw materials for receipt of nuclear material, determines features of activities of uranium objects, protection of personnel, N of the settlement and environmental protection from impact of ionizing radiation, and also feature of social protection of personnel of uranium objects and the population in connection with impact of ionizing radiation.
In this Law the terms below and concepts are used in the following value:
production of uranium ores - extraction of uranium ores from fields by all possible methods;
the mining and overworking uranium objects (uranium objects) - set of the main industrial productions and auxiliary objects which provide production cycle of production and conversion of uranium ores: mines, mines, pits, prospecting underground workings, complexes of underground leaching, hydrosteel works, concentrating factories, tail farms, transport enterprises;
conversion of uranium ores - processing of ore for the purpose of allocation of useful components and receipt of concentrate;
uranium ores - minerals which are got and processed for the purpose of release of nuclear material.
The relations arising in case of production and conversion of uranium ores and use of products of their conversion are regulated by this Law, the Law of Ukraine "About use of nuclear energy and radiation safety", the Code of Ukraine about subsoil, other laws and regulatory legal acts of Ukraine.
The main objectives of this Law are:
development of the legal basis of state regulation of safety in connection with impact of the ionizing radiation arising in case of production and conversion of uranium ores and use of products of their conversion;
enhancement of the legal basis of the state control of production and conversion of uranium ores and use of products of their conversion;
determination of features of social protection of workers of uranium objects in connection with impact of ionizing radiation; establishment of the rights, obligations and responsibility of the companies, organizations, organizations, and also workers of uranium objects.
This Law extends to types of activity in case of production and conversion of uranium ores and use of products of their conversion, namely:
geological exploration of fields of uranium ores;
designing, placement, construction, reconstruction, commissioning, operation, liquidation, temporary stop (preservation) or reshaping of uranium objects;
transportation of uranium ores and products of their conversion;
the address with sources of ionizing radiation in exploration process, production and conversion of uranium ores;
acquisition, sale, export and import of uranium ores and products of their conversion;
organization of accounting of uranium ores and products of their conversion, control of their storage and transportation.
On behalf of the Ukrainian people of the right of the owner to uranium ores which are in subsoil perform public authorities.
The uranium ores and products of their conversion received according to the legislation extracted from subsoil are property of subjects of production and conversion of all patterns of ownership if other is not established by the state order and international treaties of Ukraine which consent to be bound is this the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.
Uranium ores and products of their conversion according to the state order are bought on the contract prices providing the level of profitability is not lower than minimum. Property complexes of uranium objects can be in different patterns of ownership.
The list of property complexes of the uranium objects which are in state-owned property and not privatizeable affirms the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on representation of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
State regulation in case of production and conversion of uranium ores and use of products of their conversion includes:
also corrected setting standards on safety of production and conversion of uranium ores in connection with impact of ionizing radiation;
determination of amounts of production and conversion of uranium ores;
provision of licenses for production and conversion of uranium ores;
control of observance of requirements of regulations and rules in case of production and conversion of uranium ores;
control of use of uranium ores and products of their conversion, their transportation, acquisition, sale, export and import.
Activities of the companies for production, conversion, transportation of uranium ores and products of their conversion are performed based on licenses which are granted according to the procedure, established by the legislation of Ukraine.
The part two is excluded.
Provision of subsoil for geological studying of fields of uranium ores is performed according to the Code of Ukraine about subsoil.
Special permissions to trial development of uranium fields and production of uranium ores are issued according to the Code of Ukraine about subsoil and in coordination with the central executive body realizing state policy in health sector and shall contain requirements for ensuring protection of personnel, the population and environmental protection from ionizing radiation taking into account impact of radon and its affiliated products, and also prevention of radioactive environmental pollution.
Licenses of production and/or for conversion of uranium ores, and also for transportation of uranium ores and products of their conversion are issued according to the Law of Ukraine "About allowing activities in the sphere of use of nuclear energy".
Special permissions for construction of new objects for conversion of uranium ores and reconstruction of the operating objects are issued only after receipt of the positive conclusion on environmental impact assessment of the project of works according to the Law of Ukraine "About environmental impact assessment" and the positive conclusions of other state examinations according to the legislation of Ukraine.
