The NSLS-II Beamline Radiation Shielding Policy has been stated as follows in reference 1: Radiation exposure to staff and users resulting from National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) operations must comply with Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and Department of Energy (DOE) radiation requirements and must be maintained as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA). Per the Shielding Policy (PS-C-ASD-POL-005), in continuously occupied areas during normal operation the dose rate is ALARA, and shall be < 0.5 mrem/h (based on occupancy of 2000 hours/year) or less than 1 rem in a year.
