Re: Accidents and Dose Limits -Reply -Reply



Dean,

The regulations say that each licensee shall conduct operations so that the dose
limits are not exceeded.  The regulations do not merely require licensees to try to
keep doses within the limits.  Saying that an overexposure was accidental is not an
acceptable excuse.  Of course, saying that the overexposure was deliberate would
make matters worse, but I do not recall that ever happening.
