RE: Soil Scanning/Sampling reference documents




Jack Duray is no employed longer at DOE/Grand Junction, but Craig Little is
(my mentor and Section Head at ORNL/GJ).

The protocols developed for mill tailings/FUSRAP type surveys are dependent
on a good gamma signiture.  Without knowing what you are trying to
characterize, these protocols may or may not be suitable for your needs.

A good document general document for surveys that I recommend is the DOE
Draft Environmental Implementation Guide for Radiological Survey
Procedures, Feb. 1997.  It does not have a document number (long story,
don't go there).  Contact Ken Duval at DOE/HQ for a copy.  He can be
reached at 202-586-0242.

Of course there is the MARSSIM manual, developed by numerous agencies to
standardize surveys.  It can be downloaded from the EPA or NRC websites.
