DOE-STD-1098-99
Radiological Control
Excellence in Radiological Control
June 2004
9.
Subcontractors and subcontracted employees should be treated the same as facility staff in the area of radiological
control matters, shall have comparable radiation safety training [see 835.901], and should meet the same
requirements and expectations.
10.
Conditions that could cause or promote the spread of contamination, such as a leaking roof or piping, should be
identified and corrected on a priority basis.
126 Improving Worker Awareness of Radiological Conditions
In performing assigned duties within radiological areas, workers should be familiar with the area radiological conditions
and be aware of the possibility that unforeseen changes may occur. Although the conduct of radiological surveys is
viewed as a traditional role of radiological control technicians, experience has shown that properly trained and qualified
workers are capable of performing supplemental radiological surveys in the course of work. This process results in
exposure savings and improved contamination control.
Specific examples of surveys that may be effectively performed by workers and result in exposure reductions include self-
monitoring of dose rates during high radiation area entries and monitoring of tools and equipment for contamination as a
qualitative check during work in contamination areas. The performance of legal record surveys, such as release surveys,
should remain the responsibility of the radiological control organization.
