In April 2011, the [https://dazv.gov.ua/ State Agency of Ukraine on the Exclusion Zone Management] (SAUEZM) became the successor to the State Department – Administration of the exclusion zone and the zone of absolute (mandatory) resettlement according to presidential decree.<ref name="Presidential Decree" /> The SAUEZM is, as its predecessor, an agency within the [[State Emergency Service of Ukraine]].

Policing of the Zone is conducted by special units of the [[Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine]] and, along the border with Belarus, by the [[State Border Guard Service of Ukraine]].

The SAUEZM is tasked with:<ref name="Presidential Decree" />
# Conducting environmental and radioactivity monitoring in the zone
# Management of long-term storage and disposal of radioactive waste
# Leasing of land in the exclusion zone and the zone of absolute (mandatory) resettlement
# Administering of state funds for radioactive waste management
# Monitoring and preservation of documentation on the subject of radioactivity
# Coordination of the decommissioning of the nuclear power plant
# Maintenance of a register of persons who have suffered as a result of the disaster

The Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant is located inside the zone but is administered separately. Plant personnel, 3,800 workers {{as of|2009|lc=y}}, reside primarily in Slavutych, a specially-built remote city in [[Kyiv Oblast]] outside of the Exclusion Zone, {{convert|45|km|0}} east of the accident site.
