Portable radiation survey instrument manual

The External Dose Evaluation Manual, BNWL-MA-6Z, is being issued by sections as individual procedures are completed to describe the portable radiation survey instruments in use on the Hanford site. The manual is in two parts. Part 1 covers general administrative and technical procedures associated with instrument procurement, radiological standards functions, criticality and high level exposure analysis, and special dosimetry capabilities. The specifications, calibration, operation, performance, and uses of the CP and extended CP (XCP) ionization chambers; the Juno dose ratemeter; the portable count rate meters EGM and PAM; the SNOOPY neutron dose rate meter; the Cutie Pie--Totem Pole meters LPC, TPC, and HPC; the Radeco Portable Alpha Monitor (PAM), and the Low Level Monitor (LLM) are presented
