A risk assessment analysis procedure for determining the radiation safety of potable water was considered. The determination of safety was based on measuring specific alpha and beta activity. If one or both activity values is exceeded. It is necessary to carry out radionuclide analysis. Using this method, water samples taken from the transboundary with Georgia Kura River in Azerbaijan were analyzed. It was established that water in the Kura River contains safe levels of radiation. This procedure can be used for assessing radiation risk in any water intended for household use. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
