PAC 2: Operational Radiation Safety

Program Area Committee (PAC) 2 focuses on issues related to operational radiation safety. PAC 2 is actively engaged in preparing scope statements for future projects to be submitted to sponsors for funding. Functioning within the scope of PAC 2 is SC 2-5 on Investigation of Radiological Incidents.

Currently authorized but unfunded activities within this program area are:

air monitoring
operational radiation safety in medical fusion imaging procedures
design of facilities and installed equipment for handling unsealed radioactive materials
radiation protection guidelines for industrial accelerators and irradiators

A meeting of PAC 2 was held on March 6 in conjunction with the 2011 NCRP Annual Meeting. The primary focus of the meeting was to review the latest draft report on Investigation of Radiological Incidents. Following the revisions that were agreed to at this meeting, it is planned that the draft report will be ready for peer review in May. PAC 2 will provide a list of proposed peer reviewers when the latest draft is submitted.
