[ RadSafe ] Radon Contact at Mine Safety and Health Administration

[Robert Holub]

Hello Ms. Kavanagh, if you are interested in overall state of how well
radiation is measured in mines - then I (and my former boss, Robert F.
Droullard) are
the people you are interested in talking to.
If you just want to know what are the existing laws are and how to comply
with them,
then Robert T. Beckman (303 985 9918), formerly with MSHA, is your man.
Robert F. Holub

Bob,
I just checked with a Central Region MSHA health and safety person, Richard
McCutcheon, who is located in my building.  The most knowledgeable person on
this area in MSHA has retired but he will check further with other MSHA
folks to see who else may have info.
However, the U.S. Bu Mines had a radon lab in Denver for many years.  The
person who lead that program was Bob Holub, who retired when USBM was shut
down about 1995 and who is now affiliated with the Colorado School of Mines.
I suspect that Bob is the best contact on this topic.  He can be reached
through CSM at:
Holub, Robert
Work Telephone: (303) 384-2068
Business Email: rholub at mines.edu

A young friend and colleague of mine is working on a project and wants to
talk to someone in the U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration of the
Department of Labor about radon measurements in U.S. mines.



If any RADSAFERs know who she should talk to, please send that information
to Elizabeth Kavanagh (ekavanagh at moellerinc.com).



Thank you,

Bob C
