III.
PREPARATION OF WORK AREA AND MATERIALS
EO5
IDENTIFY methods used to control radioactive contamination.
A.
Appropriate Selection of Work Area
The work station should not present an exposure potential to another individual within the
laboratory or to the adjacent laboratory. The work station should not conflict with other
work within the laboratory (i.e., strong gamma emitters near low background counting
equipment, etc.).
B.
Preparation of Work Areas
1.
Minimize area
Confine operations involving radioactive materials to as small a space as practical.
2.
Clear area
Clear area of extraneous items and material.
3.
Work surface
Cover area as appropriate. Diaper paper should be placed absorbent side up.
4.
Containment
Use trays when appropriate.
