TLD Vendor Program Questions

[Patrick Duffy <prduffy@foxberry.net>]

I am preparing an evaluation of various TLD processing options for our
program, and would like to poll the RADSAFE community for their
experiences with vendor-provided TLD processing.  I would appreciate if
you could spare a few moments to answer the following questions.  Please

respond directly to my email address prduffy@foxberry.net to save
bandwidth and avoid cluttering the list (and invoking Melissa's
wrath!).  I will share a summary of my findings with all that are
interested.

1)  Nature of your program:  [A]  DOE
                                            [B] Nuclear Power

                                            [C] Six Months
                                            [D] Annual

4) Approximate Number of People Monitored Annually
