- Los Alamos National Lab. (LANL), Los Alamos, NM (United States)
- Project Enhancement Corporation, Germantown, MD
Recently, the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) Environmental Protection and Compliance (EPC) and Safety Basis (SB) Divisions have collaborated on the latter’s use of the meteorological data as input into dispersion analysis used to determine receptor dose consequences as a result of an accidental release of radioactive material from a LANL nuclear facility. The dose consequence calculations are part of the Department of Energy (DOE) approved Documented Safety Analysis (DSA), which describes the processes, hazards, and controls of nuclear operations within certain facilities at LANL. The DOE approved DSA is required according to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 830 (10CFR830), “Nuclear Safety Management” and is developed in accordance with the 10CFR830, Subpart B “Safety Basis” safe harbor methodology identified as DOE Standard 3009-94, or successor document (DOE STD 3009-94).
