Intervention

In nuclear energy: any action intended to reduce or avert exposure or the likelihood of exposure due to sources that are not part of a controlled practice or that are out of control as a consequence of an accident [Section 5(u), Philippine National Nuclear Energy...

Intermediate Level Waste (ILW)

In nuclear energy: radioactive waste that, because of its content, particularly long-lived radionuclides, requires a greater degree of containment and isolation than that provided by near surface disposal [Section 5(t), Philippine National Nuclear Energy Safety Act of...
