DOE-HDBK-1130-98

C. Methods for Obtaining Radiation Dose Records

Individuals who are monitored for exposure at DOE facilities have the right to request

reports of that exposure as follows:

Upon the request from an individual terminating employment, records of radiation dose

shall be provided by the DOE facility within 90 days. If requested, a written estimate of

radiation exposure received by the terminating employee shall be provided at the time of

termination.

Each individual required to be monitored for radiation exposure at a DOE facility shall

receive a report of that exposure on an annual basis.

Detailed information concerning any individual's dose shall be made available to the

individual upon request of that individual.

When a DOE contractor is required to report to the Department, pursuant to

Departmental requirements for occurrence reporting and processing, any exposure of an

individual to radiation and/or radioactive material, or planned special exposure, the

contrac tor shall also provide that individual with a report on his/her exposure data

included therein. Such a report shall be transmitted at a time not later than the

transmittal to the Department.

Reporting radiation dose received from other facilities and medical applications

Notify Radiological Control personnel prior to and following any radiation dose received

at another facility so that dose records can be updated.

Notify Radiological Control of medical radioactive applications. This does not include

routine medical and dental X rays. This does include therapeutic and diagnostic radio -

pharmaceuticals.
