Minimum requirements for working in Contamination,
EO9 Identify the minimum
High Contamination, and Airborne Radioactivity Areas.
requirements for working in
Contamination, High
a.
Avoid unnecessary contact with contaminated
Contamination, and Airborne
surfaces.
Radioactivity Areas.
b.
Secure equipment (lines, hoses, cables, etc.,) to
prevent them from crossing in and out of
contamination areas.
c.
When possible, wrap or sleeve materials,
equipment, and hoses.
d.
Place contaminated materials in appropriate
containers when finished.
e.
Do not touch exposed skin surfaces. High levels
of skin contamination can cause a significant skin
dose. It may also lead to internal contamination
with radioactive material.
f.
Avoid stirring contamination as it could become
airborne.
g.
Do not smoke, eat, drink, or chew. Do not put
anything in your mouth.

protective clothing is compromised (e.g., becomes
wet, torn, or otherwise compromised.)
