Abstract

We presented the results of measures taken by the Moscow Office of Rospotrebnadzor to ensure sanitary and epidemiological wellbeing during the preparation and hosting the 2018 FIFA World Cup (Championship): providing control at all construction stages of sports facilities and sports infrastructure, including laboratory and instrumental control of building, finishing materials and finished products. The surveys of all involved in the Championship facilities, as well as within adjacent areas to especially radiation-hazardous facilities in Moscow (National Research Center «Kurchatov Institute», National Research Nuclear University «Moscow Engineering Physics Institute», Institute for Theoretical and Experimental Physics named after A.I. Alikhanov of National Research Center «Kurchatov Institute», N.A. Dollezhal Research and Development Institute of Power Engineering) were conducted in terms of ensuring radiation safety. An examination of activities with sources of ionizing radiation was carried out; 21 sanitaryepidemiological conclusions and 6 licenses on compliance with the above activities were issued.
