Module 9: Radioactive Contamination Control
Instructor's Notes
d.
Dust/dirt accumulations in radioactive
contamination areas.
e.
Torn or damaged tents and glove bags or
containments on radioactive systems.

response to a spill of
radioactive material.
Each of the examples listed above may be a spill of
radioactive material. Here is the minimum response to
a spill of radioactive material:
a.
Stop or secure the operation causing the spill, if
qualified.
b.
Warn others in the area.
c.
Isolate the area.
d.
Minimize exposure to radiation and contamination.
e.
Secure unfiltered ventilation.
f.
Notify Radiological Control personnel.
D. Contamination Control Methods
Every radiological worker should perform work in such a
manner as to minimize the generation of radioactive
contamination and confine the spread of radioactive
contamination to the smallest area possible. By controlling
contamination, the worker minimizes the potential for
internal exposure, and personnel contamination can be
minimized. Examples of methods used to control the
spread of radioactive contamination follow:

radioactive material releases.
a.
Establish a solid routine maintenance program for
operating systems to minimize failures and leaks
that lead to contamination.
b.
Repair leaks as soon as identified to prevent a
more serious problem.
c.
Establish adequate work controls before starting
jobs.
