Experienced Guidance on the Technical Issues of Decommissioning
ProjectsWritten by one of the original MARSSIM authors,
Decommissioning Health Physics: A Handbook for MARSSIM Users,
Second Edition is the only book to incorporate all of the requisite
technical aspects of planning and executing radiological surveys in
support of decommissioning. Extensively revised and updated, it
covers survey instrumentation, detection sensitivity, statistics,
dose modeling, survey procedures, and release criteria. New to the
Second Edition Chapter on hot spot assessment that recognizes
appropriate dosimetric significance of hot spots when designing
surveys and includes a new approach for establishing hot spot
limits Chapter on the clearance or release of materials,
highlighting aspects of the MARSAME manual Revised chapter on
characterization survey design to reflect guidance in ANSI N13.59
on the value of data quality objectives (DQOs) Updated regulations
and guidance documents throughout Updated survey instrumentation
used to support decontamination and decommissioning (D&D)
surveys, including expanded coverage of in situ gamma spectrometers
Revised statistics chapter that includes an introduction to
Bayesian statistics and additional double sampling and ranked set
sampling statistical approaches More case studies and examples
throughout Implement the Surveys Effectively and Avoid Common
PitfallsWith more than 20 years of experience as a practitioner in
the decommissioning survey field, author Eric W. Abelquist prepares
you for the technical challenges associated with planning and
executing MARSSIM surveys. He discusses the application of
statistics for survey design and data reduction and addresses the
selection of survey instrumentation and detection sensitivity. He
presents final status survey procedures and covers pathway modeling
to translate release criteria to measurable quantities. He also
offers solutions for navigating the complexity inherent in
designing and implementing MARSSIM and MARSAME surveys. Detailed
derivations, thorough discussions of technical bases, and
real-world examples and case studies illustrate effective
strategies for demonstrating to regulators and stakeholders that
contaminated sites can be released for other beneficial uses.
