Re: Precollege physics safety

[LIPTONW@detroitedison.com]

Some NCRP reports that may be worthwhile are: 
 
 
NCRP 32 
Radiation Protection in Educational Institutions, 1966.  
 
NCRP 71 
Operational Radiation Safety - Training, March, 1983.  
 
NCRP 111 
Developing Radiation Emergency Plans for Academic, Medical or Industrial 
Facilities, August 30, 1991.  
 
 
To order these reports, call (800) 229-2652. 
 
There may be also some NRC Regulatory Guides that are useful. 
 
Although these publications may be helpful, I advise you to use a qualified 
consultant in preparing this manual, since it appears to be one that will be 
used in a wide variety of settings, and will be relied on to protect the 
safety of students.   
 
The opinions expressed are strictly mine. 
Here's to a risk free world, and other fantasies.
