This manual is a revised edition of the manual published in March 2021. The original version was based on the investigation conducted mainly by High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) over a four-year period starting in FY 2017. It was developed through discussions with KEK, the Nuclear Regulation Authority, and many experts in Japan. The aim of the revised edition is to make the manual easier to use and it is expected to be useful for the decommissioning of accelerator facilities in Japan.

The first edition of this manual was supported by Radiation Safety Research Promotion Fund (JPJ007057) from the Nuclear Regulation Authority of Japan.
