Rapid Contamination Survey. The purpose of this survey is to obtain samples required to quickly identify areas having removable contaminants. The wipe sample is useful for detecting the presence of contaminants from a weapon-handling accident (alpha) and/or from fallout (beta-gamma). This survey should be made after any event suspected of contaminating the ship. It should be repeated after known or possible significant changes in the amount or distribution of contamination.
