Analysis of the Army Materiel Command Radiation Protection Program.

Abstract

This report documents an analysis of and recommendations to enhance the U.S. Army Materiel Command (AMC) Radiation Protection Program. Data was collected from all AMC installations that participate in radiation control activities. The data reflected radiation protection officer capabilities and specific installation radiation sources. The analysis and subsequent recommendations assess the scope of activities performed at AMC installations, management issues related to radiation control, tasks and responsibilities in support of radiation control, training status and requirements to train primary and alternate radiation protection officers, and the capability of primary and alternate RPOs to operate and calibrate specific ionizing radiation detection equipment.
