Abstract     In order to buttress the safe operation of the Krško Nuclear Power Plant (Westinghouse, 632 MWe, PWR), the seismotectonic structure of the Krško basin has been thoroughly investigated. The basin lies at the transition from the External Dinarides into Internal Dinarides, at the westernmost edge of the Pannonian basin. As part of a wider study, a study on radon in soil gas was started in April 1999. For that purpose, combined detectors (barasol, Algade, France), buried in six boreholes, two along the Orlica fault and four on both sides to it, measure and record radon activity, temperature and pressure every 60 minutes. The results have been evaluated and the possibility of a correlation with seismic activity will be discussed.
