1 Program Manager’s Review Name of Program: Radiation Protection Field Operations Group Program Manager: Jim Allan Date: 19 September 2005

2 RP Field Operations Group 6 Health Physics Technicians (HPT III) 1 Principal Science and Engineering Technician Qualified as DOE Radiological Control Technicians. Written and Practical Examinations. 2 year qualification cycle. Electronics background, Instrument Calibration.

3 RP Field Operations Program Purpose Implement, assist, and ensure compliance with radiological safety regulations, and ALARA principal practices in the field Practically, Simply and Consistently.

4 Program Description Radiological Surveys ( 40-50/2 weeks ) Posting and Labeling Survey Materials ( 50-100/Month) Radiological Work Coverage ( 10 jobs/M ) Ship & Rec Radioactive Materials (10 / M) Instrumentation (>300) Surveillance of work and personnel

5 More Description Radioactive source management. (372) Passive area monitoring placement (300) Emergency Response Radiological Training, RWT I, RWT II classroom, examinations, SME. HEPA Ventilation / Vacuum certifications, with LLNL (20) Material Studies using Sources, RCF

6 Requirements 10CFR835 10CFR71, 49CFR, ICAO Others DOE-STD-1027 Safety Analysis Documents DOE 10CFR835 Implementation Guides Surveys, posting, training, sources… Transport of RAM Hazard Categorization, Radiological Vs Nuclear

7 Self Assessment Methodology Completion of surveys-Checklists, review of all documented radiological surveys. Passive Monitoring results-RCA posting Amount of Phone calls to 4299 Continuous Surveillance in the Field

8 Self Assessment Results Required Radiological surveys completed No Occupied, unposted RCA’s 10-20 Phone calls per day Few unidentified Rad Materials No Personnel Contaminations Entry Requirements adhered to

9 Risks / Avoiding Personnel Exceeding Radiation Exposure limits Radiation Physics relationship re shielding and dose control plans. Continuous Radiological surveys for changing conditions. Meaningful Radiological Posting e+ vault, BSY, Klystrons & Test Lab, RCF 25 R/h 25R/h, 50R/h 11000 R/h

10 Risks / Avoiding Radioactive Material to General Public Admin rules/ Survey all material from Accelerator housing Good working relationship with others Salvage surveys Training

11 Risks / Avoiding Personnel Contamination Experienced Health Physics Personnel Training, Briefings, Work Planning PPE Ventilation HEPA Vacuums Containments Surveys
