German term

der atomrechtlich Verantwortliche / die atomrechtlich verantwortlichen Personen

German to English Tech/Engineering Human Resources
This is a job title in an organisational chart of a company. People with this title are allowed to do certain things that other employees can't.

What would be a clear concise English version of this title?

Thanks!

Change log

May 31, 2010 17:34: Gudrun Dauner changed "Term asked" from "Atomrechlich Verantwortlicher" to "der atomrechtlich Verantwortliche / die atomrechtlich verantwortlichen Personen"

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): hazmatgerman (X)

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Discussion

hazmatgerman (X) Jun 4, 2010:
too bad the asker did not consider it worthwhile to provide additional information.
hazmatgerman (X) May 30, 2010:
@Backhaus mein Kommentar sollte Sie auf die Diskrepanz zwischen der Anwendung Ihres Beispiels und dem wahrscheinlichen Umfeld der Frage hinweisen. Schade, daß das nicht ankam, obgleich Sie freigebig aus meinem ersten Diskussionbeitrag schöpfen konnten, sowohl für die Rechtsgrundlage als auch für den wirklich einfachen Fachbegriff.
hazmatgerman (X) May 29, 2010:
@asker: how about some more information on country, field of activity and so on? That would probably help.
hazmatgerman (X) May 28, 2010:
Would need to be supplemented by stating the country, for that will determine which legislative act governs and should therefore be used in the phrase. The German spelling should be "atomrechtlich", and the term "person responsible under (for GE) the Atomic Energy Act".

Selected

responsible according to the provisions of the Atomic Energy Act (§ 9b para. 4)

Die Gesamtverantwortung für die Errichtung, den Betrieb und die Stilllegung eines Endlagers trägt der Präsident des BfS. Da er diese Aufgabe nicht alleine wahrnehmen kann, müssen nach dem Atomgesetz (§ 9b Abs. 4 i.V.m. § 7 Abs. 2 Nr. 1) eine oder mehrere verantwortliche Personen bestellt (eingesetzt) werden. Sie tragen die Verantwortung dafür, dass die Pflichten, die sich aus dem Atomgesetz, der Strahlenschutzverordnung und den Genehmigungsunterlagen ergeben, eingehalten werden. Zu diesen Pflichten gehört die Kenntnis über einen sicheren Betrieb des Endlagers, die mit dem Betrieb verbundenen Gefahren, sowie die notwendigen Schutzmaßnahmen.

Hier die englische Übersetzung
The overall responsibility for the erection, operation and decommissioning of a federal repository is with the BfS President. As he cannot perform this task alone, one or several responsible persons must be appointed according to Atomic Energy Act (§ 9b para. 4 in combination with § 7 para. 1 no. 1). These persons bear the responsibility for compliance with the duties resulting from the provisions of the Atomic Energy Act, the Radiation Protection Ordinance, and the licensing documents. These duties include knowledge of a safe repository operation, the risks associated with operation, and the necessary radiation safety precautions.

Manager Nuclear Safety and Radiation Protection (US-law)
Example sentence:

Nuclear safety covers the actions taken to prevent nuclear and radiation accidents or to limit their consequences. This covers nuclear power plants as well as all other nuclear facilities, the transportation of nuclear materials, and the use and storage o

Peer comment(s):
neutral hazmatgerman (X) : Wenngleich Sie offensichtlich den Hinweis auf die Rechtsgrundlagen lasen, so bedarf doch die Vermutung, das BfS sei eine "company" , zumindest der Klärung. Wahrscheinlicher ist m.E., daß der Quelltext eine kommerzielle Firma betrifft.

BfS ist das Bundesamt für Strahlenschutz (bitte lesen Sie hierzu auch meine Quellenangabe)...

manager with nuclear clearance

If he has some kind of responsibility, I would call him a manager. "Nuclear clearance" implies that he has acquired permission (clearance) from a respective authority.
