RE: Soc. Sec. # on Official Records

[Chris Hogan <chogan@colan.uams.edu>]

I believe that the NRC (and in my case Agreement State) regulations
require a SSN on dosimetry records.  I am attaching the following
reference to that effect from 10 CFR 19.  Our agreement state regs have
essentially the same statement.  Being from an agreement state, I don't
cite CFRs frequently, so please excuse any syntax errors in the
citation.  

The back of the NRC Form 4 includes the statement that "The authority
for soliciting the social security number is 10 CFR 20."   But I think
it ultimately goes back to this statement from 10 CFR 19.

Somebody mentioned this with an earlier thread, but why do we debate
things that are not a matter of opinion but can be easily be looked
up???
