[ RadSafe ] ANSI Standards for Portals, Meters and Dosimetry.

[Sandy Perle]

Hi Tony,

Yes, there is some contradictory policies in play here.

The ANSI N42 Committee is not under the HPS Secretariat, and as such, 
is not within my direct involvement in my capacity as Chair, HPS 
Standard Committee.

Here is the ANSI N42 website, that may shed some light:

http://standards.ieee.org/getN42/

For additional information, I suggest contacting Morgan Cox for 
answers to some of your questions, since Morgan is significantly 
involved with these Standards morgancx at swcp.com
and also Mike Unterweger, NIST, also significantly involved
michael.unterweger at nist.gov

Good luck on finding rationale behind the scenes!
