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.

CNSC staff expressed the opinion that OPG [Ontario Power Generation] has an effective ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable) radiation protection program at the WWMF [Western Waste Management Facility]. The program consists of a number of dose reduction practices, such as material containment, ventilation of work areas, radiological zoning, contamination monitoring, personal dosimetry and the use of interim Action Levels for whole body dose.
