skos:definition "<i><b>controlled area.</b></i> A defined area in which specific 'protection' measures and <br/>'safety' provisions are or could be 'required' for controlling <i>normal <br/>exposures</i> or preventing the spread of 'contamination' during normal <br/>working conditions, and preventing or limiting the extent of <i>potential <br/>exposures</i>.<br/>
A 'controlled area' is often within a 'supervised area', but need not be.<br/>The term <i><b>radiation area</b></i> is sometimes used to describe a similar concept, but <br/>'controlled area' is preferred in 'IAEA publications'.<br/>
<i><b>operations area.</b></i> A geographical area that contains an 'authorized facility'. <br/>It is enclosed by a physical 'barrier' (the <i><b>operations boundary</b></i>) to prevent <br/>unauthorized access, by means of which the management of the <br/>'authorized facility' can exercise direct authority.<br/>
This applies to larger 'facilities'.<br/>
<b>['radiation area'</b><b>]'.'</b> See 'controlled area'.<br/>
<i><b>site area.</b></i> A geographical area that contains an <i>authorized facility, <br/>authorized activity </i>or' source', and within which the management of the <br/>'authorized facility 'or 'authorized activity' may directly initiate <i>emergency <br/>actions</i>.<br/>
This is typically the area within the 'security' perimeter fence or other <br/>designated property marker. It may also be the 'controlled area' around a <br/>
radiography 'source' or a cordoned off area established by <i>first responders<br/></i>around a suspected hazard.<br/>This area is often identical to the 'operations area', except in situations (e.g. <br/>'research reactors', 'irradiation installations') where the' authorized facility 'is on a <br/>site where other 'activities' are being carried out beyond the 'operations area', <br/>but where the management of the 'authorized facility' can be given some <br/>degree of authority over the whole 'site area'.<br/>The <i><b>site boundary</b></i> is the boundary of the 'site area'.<br/>The term 'activity' is used here in the sense of 'activity' (2).<br/>
<i><b>supervised area.</b></i> A defined area not designated a 'controlled area' but for <br/>which 'occupational exposure' conditions are kept under review, even <br/>though no specific 'protection' measures or 'safety' provisions are normally <br/>needed.<br/>
