Occupational radiation exposure. Fifteenth and sixteenth annual reports, 1982 and 1983. Volumes 4 and 5

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6240929

This report summarizes the occupational exposure data that is maintained in the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Radiation Exposure Information and Reports System (REIRS). The bulk of the information contained in the report was extracted from the 1982 and 1983 annual statistical reports submitted by seven categories of NRC licensees subject to the reporting requirements of 10 CFR Section 20.407. These seven categories of licensees also submit personal identification and exposure information for terminating employees pursuant to 10 CFR Section 20.408, and some analysis of this data is also presented in this report. Compilations of the reports for 1982 indicated that some 154,000 individuals were monitored, 94,000 of whom received a measurable dose. The collective dose incurred by these individuals was calculated to be 57,000 man-rems, and the average measurable dose was found to be 0.60 rem. 6 refs., 7 figs., 13 tabs.
