This includes but is not limited to beta dose rates, contamination levels in dpm/100cm2, airborne concentration in Ci/ml and percent DAC; Recognizes and takes the appropriate action when radiological conditions are outside the pre-defined safety envelope as may be described in a radiation work permit, per radiological postings, safety or other unanticipated situations; Conducts Health Physics Hygiene related training for peers as well as site personnel; Implements radiological program procedures to ensure compliance with state and federal regulations; Controls and maintains HP instruments including but not limited to inventory, performing or shipping offsite for periodic calibrations and maintenance, and performing daily use calibrations; Reviews and provides guidance on work documents (e.g., work packages, test plans/instructions, procedures) pertaining work that has radiological hygiene hazards; and. Performs and documents radiation surveys, contamination surveys, airborne radioactivity, and chemical hazard surveys to characterize radiological conditions, support job-planning, job- coverage, post-job surveys, detect changes in conditions, release from radiological control areas, unrestricted off-site material removal, and radiological shipping surveys; Performs, understands and applies technical activities in support of the Health Physics programs; Collects and records data using Health Physics equipment to monitor personnel and work areas for existence of and extent of hazard; Using math and tools such as spreadsheets, converts the raw readings from radiological surveys to meaningful units for radiation protection purposes.
