Re[4]: Multi-clinic Monitoring



     Agreement state or not, NRC still does not regulate radiation 
     generating equipment, the state usually has a program for that. If I 
     am wrong, well, I am an old power plant hp.  What do I know about 
     X-ray tubes?  I am just writing the rules for Ohio to become an 
     Agreement State, can't be right all the time, eh?  <Exceedingly large 
     GRIN!>

Regulators, check me if if wrong, but if this is a non-agreement state, OSHA, 
not NRC regulates the exposure. OSHA is still committed to the old 10 CFR 20. 
Limit is 1250 per quarter, or 3000 if badged.  THere hasn't been an over 
exposure in the fourth quarter. Can't tell where he got the 4000 in the 
previous months but there may or may not be a problem there. 
BTW, OSHA does look at these things sometimes.  We were constructing a  tunnele 
in Boston that
I had to go check radon levels in, when another tunnel under construction, 
d
by another organization was cited for not monitoring for radon in the tunnel. e 
Yes there was a potential problem, 70+ pCi/liter.
