Training
Radioactive Effluents and
Offsite Dose Calculation Manual
RETS/ODCM Training
LENGTH: 3 days
CONTACT: (410) 421-5454
COURSE DESCRIPTION: A three (3) day training
course on NRC regulatory requirements and implementation methods
for radioactive effluent control and dose modeling. Course
can be customized to plant specific Offsite Dose Calculation
Manual (ODCM) requirements. Main objectives are:
- To provide a historical perspective on the development
of the NRC’s regulations for radioactive effluents
from nuclear power plants. Specific background and technical
bases are discussed addressing the applicable regulatory
requirements for public exposure limits in 10 CFR 20 and
10 CFR 50, Appendix I, and Regulatory Guide 1.109.
- To examine acceptable methods for calculating liquid
and gaseous discharge radiation monitor alarm setpoints
to comply with regulatory requirements. To present standard
practices for verifying radiation monitoring system and
laboratory counting instrument calibrations.
- To describe the relationship between radioactive waste
processing design basis and operational requirements for
processing and releasing radioactive effluents.
- To provide in-depth training on radioactive effluent
dose modeling. The details of the modeling for liquid and
gaseous pathways of exposure are presented with specific
application of the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.109 and
NUREG-0133. Training can be tailored to include plant specific
ODCM methodology.
- To present the requirements of a routine Radiological
Environmental Monitoring Program and the relationship with
demonstrating ALARA for radioactive effluents.
Additionally, training is provided on NRCDose,
which is a WINDOWS™ version of 10 CFR 50, Appendix I
Implementation codes used by the NRC to validate licensee's
compliance with the public exposure limits due to liquid and
gaseous releases
