Numerical criteria for in-plant as low as is reasonably achievable

  • 1. Ebasco Services Incorporated, New York, NY (USA)

Description

Due to the differences in the dose distributions as a function of age between the general population of radiation workers, the calculated number of adverse effects per man rem in-plant is 63% of the calculated number of adverse effects per man rem off-site. This ratio could be applied to off-site numerical criteria for as low as is reasonably achievable to obtain in-plant criteria
