Utilization of coal fly ash in concrete construction has clear environmental, technological and economical advantages. At the same time, fly ash is known to have enhanced concentrations of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM). Legislative issues related to the utilization of coal fly ash in concrete construction are analyzed. Different approaches implemented in standards regulating gamma radiation and radon emanation of concrete and other building materials are reviewed. Although radon exhalation rate of concrete containing coal fly ash can be sometimes slightly higher than that of the reference concrete, radon emanation coefficient is usually lower. In view of this, the standards regulating radioactivity of building materials, but not addressing radon emanation properly could be detrimental to the utilization of fly ash in concrete. At the same time, the evaluation of the excess dose caused by building materials for the radon pathway is complicated, and much more research work is required to justify the assumptions of the physical models in the future standards.
