The R50 can delegate tasks to qualified individuals as he deems appropriate; however, the responsibility remains that of the RSO. We are, therefore, not identifying the assistant RSO on the license. Please be advised that you must conduct your program involving radioactive materials in accordance with the conditions of your NRC license, representations rude in your license application, and NRC regulations. In particular, note that you must'

1. Operate in accordance with NRC regulations 10 CFR Part 19, " Notices. Instructions and Reports to Workers; Inspections," 10 CFR Part 20, t

" Standards for Protection Against Radiation," and other applicable , regulations. ;

! i f L The Radiation = Safety Specialist Training included the following procedures which are ! expected of Radiation Safety Specialists. ; ; 1) Use the Radiological Health Handbook and the Chart of the fluclides, s 2) Determine decay characteristics of a radionuclide froai the Radiological Health Hand- f book and the Chart of the Nuclides. |

3) Use standard calibration sources and perform DPM-Curie and Becquerel conversions. !

4) Perform radioactive decay corrections. ! 5) Apply statistics to the counting of radioactive sample and express in correct form.

6) Use of the following instruments to perform area surveys; ;

a) Geiger-Mueller survey meter f b) Cutie P4 survey meter ; cl fleutron survey meter d) Alpha survey meter :

7) Use of film badges, thermoluminescent dosimeters and pocket dosimeters for personnel | dosimetry. )! 8) Calculate the dose rate from: (a) point gamma source, (b) point neutron source, and %) point beta source producing bremsstrahlung. , j

9)- Perform shielding calculations on gamma, X-rays, beta, bremsstrahlung, and neutrons . to' reduce the dose to an acceptable level . '

10) Use time, distance and shielding as protective. measures. I 11) Perform calculations pertinent to leak tests, wipe tests, and air samples, to deter- mine if contamination is-present and the amount. [ :

12) Apply MPC values to a-practical situation. i t 13) Establish a radiation safety-unit withih an organization utilizing: a) Restricted areas- g) Wipe tests b)-RS0' - h) Posting : c) Radiation safety committet i) Pertinent record - -d) Personnel monitoring j) Radioactive storage and ; e) Area surveys disposal ; kl Receiving and shipping f) Leak tests |
