Resolution of Generic Safety Issues: Item B-33: Dose Assessment Methodology ( NUREG-0933, Main Report with Supplements 1–35 )

DESCRIPTION

This NUREG-04713 task involves the maintenance and improvement of calculational capabilities for assessing doses to individuals from radiation and radioactive effluents from normal operation and from radioactive releases from postulated accidents.

CONCLUSION

As dose assessment models are updated, they are included in Regulatory Guide 1.109480 and are used for SER, DES, and FES sections concerned with public exposure to radioactive materials and effluents.412 Thus, this Licensing Issue has been resolved.
