Contamination Control and Regulatory Guide 4.21
March 10-11, 2010
Orlando, FL
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This 3-day course focuses on effective contamination control and optimization of radioactive waste (radwaste) generation, using the approaches given in NRC Regulatory Guide (RG) 4.21. RG 4.21 is entitled “Minimization of Contamination and Radioactive Waste Generation: Life-Cycle Planning.” Topics discussed include: planning for minimization of contamination; application of a risk-informed approach; minimizing facility contamination, including leaks and spills, prompt detection of leakage, avoidance of release of contamination from undetected leaks, measures for reducing the need to decontaminate equipment and structures, and periodic review of operational practices; minimizing contamination of the environment, including development of a conceptual site model, provision for early detection of leakage and contaminant migration; final site configuration; facilitation of decommissioning; and minimizing radwaste generation. Specific examples to accomplish these goals will be discussed.
