B. History
Show OT 1.5.
DOE has provided numerous written standards
for on-site radiological protection, the most
recent regulation being 10 CFR Part 835,
Occupational Radiation Protection. This
regulation was preceded by:
DOE Notice 5480.6 of June 17, 1992,
DOE Radiological Control Manual (DOE/EH-
0256T) would supersede DOE Order
5480.11.
DOE Order 5480.11, Radiation Protection for
Occupational Workers (effective December,
1988). The purpose was to establish
radiation protection standards and program
requirements for DOE and DOE contractors
for the protection of workers from ionizing
radiation.
The establishment of DOE radiological
protection standards did not start with these
documents. A chronology of dose limits of DOE
and its predecessor agencies, the Atomic
Discuss that there are different
Energy Commission (1946-1975) and the
limit which will be discussed later
(e.g., whole body, lens of the eye,
Energy Research and Development
and skin).
Administration (1975-1977), demonstrate a
lowering of whole body dose limits over the last
50 years.
In the establishment of these dose limits, DOE
has followed recommendations of national and
international radiological protection groups,
notably the International Commission on
Radiological Protection (ICRP) and the National
Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements (NCRP).
