Gamma dose measurements at Zion and Fort Calhoun Stations

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6127192
The objective of this study was to provide experimental data to the NRC for evaluation of the gamma radiation fields in personnel access areas within operating LWR's. As partial fulfillment of this objective, data were obtained at two PWR's on in-plant gamma radiation fields in areas such as inside and outside equipment cubicles and spent fuel pool areas. Also, airborne radionuclide concentrations were measured in areas where plant personnel could be working during a refueling outage. Data presented were obtained at the Zion Station operated by Commonwealth Edison Co. and located near Zion, Illinois, and at the Fort Calhoun Station - Unit 1 operated by the Omaha Public Power District and located near Blair, Nebraska.
