Population dose and health impact of the accident at the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station. Final report, 28 March-7 April 1978

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5603676
The report was prepared by technical staff members of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), who consitute an Ad Hoc Population Dose Assessment Group. It is an assessment of the health impact on the approximately 2 million offsite residents within 50 miles of the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station from the dose received by the entire population (collective dose). The Ad Hoc Group has examined in detail the available data for the period up to and including April 7, 1979. Based on a preliminary review of data from periods beyond April 7, it appears that the collective dose will not be significantly increased by extending the period past April 7.
