Survey of Radiological Protection in the A.E.A.: 1979. Report of an Authority Working Party under the Chairmanship of Dr. W.M. Lomer

摘要

The practices and achievements of the radiological protection systems of the U.K.A.E.A. have been critically examined in the light of the report made by Sir Edward Pochin on Aldermaston practices. Aspects examined include the responsibilities and organisation for health and safety, sources of potential exposure, working procedures and monitoring, and health physics staffing and training. It is found that many of the criticisms made in Pochin's report do not apply to the existing conditions in the U.K.A.E.A. Several points are identified where procedures should be re-examined by managements and where improvements might be sought. The U.K.A.E.A. standards of monitoring and procedures meet all regulatory limits. Finally, a list of detailed recommendations is given. (Atomindex citation 11:517474)
