Interpretation of these dose limits in terms of individual nuclides to be released from a particular site leads to the Derived Release Limits (DRL). These DRL's, which are approved by the AECB [Atomic Energy Control Board], tell each nuclear power plant operator how much of each nuclide it is allowed under law to release from the stations. 3, record 1, English, - derived%20operational%20limit

L'interprétation des limites de doses dans le cas de nucléides particuliers à libérer à partir d'un emplacement donné permet d'établir une limite opérationnelle dérivée (LOD). Cette limite, approuvée par l'EACL [Énergie atomique du Canada limitée] indique à chaque exploitant de centrale nucléaire la quantité de chaque nucléide qu'il peut légalement laisser échapper de sa centrale. 3, record 1, French, - limite%20op%C3%A9rationnelle%20d%C3%A9riv%C3%A9e
