D. DOE Standards

DOE has developed several technical standards

for occupational radiation protection. Depending

on the site specific application, some standards

are required to be followed. For example, sites

which need to monitor individual external

exposures to ionizing radiation need to follow the

DOE Laboratory Accreditation Program

(DOELAP) standards. Other standards may be

incorporated by reference in the site RPP.

Other standards provide technical guidance on

specific applications, but adherence to the

standard may not be required.

Prior to conducting an assessment, the site

requirements documents must be reviewed to

determine applicable requirements.
