Dounreay Particles Advisory Group (DPAG)
The Dounreay Particles Advisory Group makes scientific and
technical recommendations to SEPA and the UK Atomic Energy
Authority (UKAEA) about ways to improve the monitoring and research
programmes for particles in local sediments.
Following recommendations by the (then) Scottish Office, SEPA
set up the Dounreay Particles Advisory Group in May 2000. The
members are:
- Professor Keith Boddy (Chair), retired
- Professor Tim Atkinson, Department of Earth Sciences,
University College, London
- Professor Alex Elliott, Department of Clinical Physics and
Bioengineering, Western Infirmary, Glasgow
- Professor Tony Harris, retired
- Professor Marian Scott, Department of Statistics, University of
Glasgow
- Dr Andrew Tyler, School of Biological and Environmental
Sciences, University of Stirling
- Professor Lynda Warren, retired
- Dr Bernard Wilkins, Health Protection Agency.
A number of 'observers' from SEPA and UKAEA, and a
representative from the Scottish Government, also attend DPAG
meetings. Increasingly, the group is working with bodies such as
the Committee on Medical Aspects of Radiation in the Environment
(COMARE) and the Radioactive Waste Management Advisory Committee
(RWMAC).
