Operation PLUMBBOB Off-Site Radiological Safety Report. Nevada Test Site,
Abstract
The purpose of this report is to present a concise summary of off-site rad-safe activities during Operation PLUMBBOB and to serve as a source of information to interested AEC and health agency personnel. All pertinent data necessary to evaluate the off-site exposure effects of the operation in populated areas are included. In the interests of brevity, selected data only are given for non-populated areas and for certain other items, such as shielding and weathering. Complete monitoring logs and detailed film badge results covering these areas are, however, available from the files of the Las Vegas Branch, AEC. Also available from this office are the detailed data from which certain of the summaries were compiled. Throughout the entire report, maps, tables, graphs, and diagrams have been used extensively for brevity and for clarity. Except in the chapter on individual shot summaries, tables, graphs, etc., are placed at the end of the chapter to which they refer and in the sequence of referral in the chapter.
