Dear RadSafers

I have seen guidance for doses "limits" in an emergency, written in several
DOE documents: 25 rem for lifesaving, >25 rem for lifesaving with fully
informed volunteers. I am told that similar guidance has been issued by
other US government agencies, perhaps the EPA. Can anyone tell me where
this is written?

Thank you, mike
