Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6008160

A workshop was held in Washington, DC, April 12-13, 1984, to assist in evaluating radiological protection options for subseabed disposal of radioactive wastes. The recommendations of the workshop will be used as input to the Subseabed Disposal Project (SDP) for the selection of working standards during the feasibility phase of the project or until criteria are provided by regulatory agencies. The expert groups attending the workshop consisted of individuals from US Government agencies (NOAA, EPA, and NRC), international bodies (NEA, ICRP, NRPB, and IAEA), the Electric Power Research Institute, State of Illinois, Pacific Northwest Laboratories (PNL), SDP contractors, and Sandia National Laboratories. This report presents the opinions expressed during the workshop and the issues that were raised.
