Radiological Control Training for Supervisors
DOE-HDBK-1143-2001
Student's Guide
B. History
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,
Radiological Control, which specified that the
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
Energy Commission (1946-1975) and the
Energy Research and Development
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).
