FUN 1 EO: 1.45 & 1.46

1 / 7

Which title and part of the Code of Federal Regulations establishes the dose limits for radiation workers?

Title 5, Part 30

Title 10, Part 20

Title 30, Part 5

Title 20, Part 10

2 / 7

Why are contact dose rates documented?

To minimize the risk of challenging the legal dose limits

For deriving estimates of whole body exposures

For imposing NRC fines on the plant

For establishing expected rates of exposure to the extremities and determining the use of extremity dosimetry

3 / 7

What is the importance of documenting general area dose rates?

Facilitating the administrative process for workers

Determining the efficiency of nuclear reactors

Increasing the risk of adverse health effects

Establishing stay times for personnel and aiding job planning and establishment of exposure controls

4 / 7

What is the main purpose of having plant administrative limits for radiation exposure in a commercial nuclear power facility?

To minimize the risk of challenging the legal dose limits set in 10CFR20 and limit exposures to workers

To increase the efficiency of nuclear reactors

To reduce the need for regulatory oversight by the NRC

To facilitate the administrative process for workers

5 / 7

What could be the possible consequences if federal dose limits are not maintained?

Increased risk of adverse health effects, NRC fines, disciplinary actions, and increased regulatory oversight

Reduced efficiency in nuclear reactors

Reduction in plant administrative limits

Decreased regulatory oversight by the NRC

6 / 7

A 'General Area Survey' is conducted to establish what?

General area dose rates within 10 cm from the radiation source

General area dose rates at least 30 cm from the radiation source

Contact dose rates on the surface being measured

Contact dose rates at least 30 cm from the radiation source

7 / 7

Contact dose rates are dose rate measurements taken how?

At least 30 cm from the radiation source or from any surface that radiation penetrates

Through administrative limits for exposure

By conducting a 'General Area Survey'

By placing the radiation detector housing on the surface being measured
