  Next-generation exotic beam facilities will offer a number of approaches to produce rare isotopes far from stability. One of the approaches is the Isotope Online (ISOL) separation concept, that is, the isotope production by interactions of light ion beams with heavy nuclei of targets. A pre-conceptual design of an ISOL target station was done as part of the research and development work for the Rare Isotope Accelerator (RIA). This report summarizes the results of radiation simulations for the RIA ISOL target station. The above includes radiation effects such as: prompt doses around the target station and from neutron sky-shine; residual activation effects such as ground water, air, and component activation; life-time of target station components; and heating and cooling for target, beam dumps, and shielding.
