AbstractAbstract
[en] An area of growing concern in recent years has been the apparent increase in levels of collective radiation dose to workers at nuclear power plants in the USA. US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) decisions and rulings related to in-service inspection, retrofits, and plant upgrades have been primarily intended to reduce the risk of public radiation exposure resulting from either routine release of radioactivity or potential accident situations. However, implementation of the required control measures and procedures can often result in increased levels of occupational radiation exposure. Recognizing the need to incorporate occupational dose into probabilistic risk assessments (PRA), value-impact, and cost-benefit analyses, the NRC has sponsored this study with the objective of developing an appropriate methodology to factor potential worker exposures into safety assessments. This report on the study is presented in three volumes. The following are subtitles for Volumes 1 to 3: Volume 1, A Review of Occupational Dose Assessment Considerations in Current Probabilistic Risk Assessments and Cost-Benefit Analyses, Volume 2, Considerations in Factoring Occupational Dose into Value-Impact and Cost-Benefit Analyses, and Volume 3, A Calculation Method
