However, the assessment of this dosedepends not only on the measurements of contaminants present, but also on the future use of thematerial and the pathways by which persons can be exposed. This guide provides a recommendedapproach to su

Section 6discusses the need for dose rate based release criteria, and Section 7 delineates the steps for decidingwhether or not a

Section 8 describes the steps needed toimplement the recommendations of this guide including the development of a data package to supportthe petition and to serve as a permanent record.1.

Material thatpasses the logic diagram shown in Fig. 1 is candidate forrelease. The sampling, analysis, and determination of candi

11、-dacy must be documented and included in the record package.The RESRAD family of computer codes, particularlyRESRAD-RECYCLE, provide a methodology for correlatingunrestricted disposition criteria with the measurable radiologi-cal quantities contained within the bulk materials. For example,end-point

Section 7 describes themethodology shown.5. Significance

TYPICAL INTENDED USES, EXPOSURE SCENARIOS, AND RECEPTORS FOR BULK MATERIAL RELEASEX1.1 The intended use of a material is defined by theowner/petitioner

14、 based on the nature of the material and theplans of the intended recipient. The first column below listscommon types of bulk materials encountered during decom-missioning, as well as a common use for each. For example,concrete rubble could be used for clean fill, or disposed of in asanitary landfil

15、l. Slightly contaminated asbestos, in contrast,has no reuse but can be disposed of in a permitted sanitarylandfill if the dose to the public is sufficiently small. Thesecond column identifies the way (scenario) that members ofthe public would receive the highest dose because of theintended use. For

16、materials that are to be disposed of in asanitary landfill, or used as fill, the greatest credible doseusually would occur if the land were later occupied by aresident farmer. The analysis to determine the magnitude of theresulting dose would include all of the usual pathways appli-cable in the area

17、 where the material is to be placed, that is,direct exposure, resuspension, meat, milk, vegetables, aquaticfoods, and drinking water. A possible intended use scenario forferrous metal that is to be melted and reused as structural steelwould be the exposure to persons who dwell in an apartmentconstru

18、cted from that steel, and the applicable pathway wouldbe by direct exposure.

20、 if bymistake the material were not used for its intended purpose, butin some other way. The unplanned use scenario is the crediblealternative to the intended use that gives the highest dose. Forexample, material to be disposed of in a sanitary landfill mayinstead be dumped on the surface, or steel

The residential farmer scenario isusually the most conservative for material placed in or on theground, but pathways may differ.
