- Occupational Medical Dose
(Revised June 22, 2007)
PDF 122 KB (29 pages)
Revision Includes: Initiated to concur with ORAUT-OTIB-0006 (ORAUT 2005),
current data in other TBDs, and to include new legal wording in Section 3.1. Constitutes
a total rewrite of the document. Incorporates formal internal and NIOSH review comments. Adds
Attributions and Annotations section. This revision results in no change to the
assigned dose and no PER is required.
- Occupational Environmental Dose
(Revised May 27, 2008)
PDF 525 KB (77 pages)
Revision Includes: Approved revision initiated to apply only to post 1962
employment periods and all covered employees including those identified by job classification
as a drillback operator prior to 1965. Also applies to covered employees involved with any of
the 10 underground tests that resulted in unexpected release of radioactive materials. Revised
Table 4.2.1.2.2.-2 (new Table 4-3) to reflect 2,000 hr/yr and 2400 m3/yr breathing
rate. Deleted Tables 4.2.1.2.2-3 and 4.2.1.2.2-4. Deleted Sections 4.2.1.2.3 and 4.2.1.2.4.
Added Sections 4.2.1.2.3 and 4.1.2.4 to introduce revised method for assigning environmental
ambient inhalation intakes. Replaced Section 4.2.2 with ambient ingestion intake section.
Revised Section 4.4 to include dose from radon and other alpha and beta emitting radionuclides
and to include discussion of radon exposure in Gravel Gerties. Added Section 4.4.3. Revised
Section 4.4.4, Table 4.21 to increase radon WLM for G-Tunnel prior to 1984 and to maximize radon
exposures for unidentified work locations. Added discussion of radon in Gravel Gerties. Added
Section 4.4.5 to provide method for assigning inhalation and ingestion intakes for underground
workers. Added Section 4.5.2 to provide instructions to dose reconstructors for assigning
inhalation and ingestion ambient environmental intakes for all workers at the NTS. Occupational
environmental dose will increase for all claims not previously worked using ORAUT-OTIB-0018
or ORAUT-OTIB-0002. Also, cases of lung, ET1, and ET2 will need to be re-evaluated for increased
radon exposures. Attachments A and B (formerly Rollins 2007, SRDB Ref ID: 37805) were added to
support the changes discussed in Section A.6.0 which included enriching the near-field environment
with refractory elements. The 01-C version only added refractory elements back to the depleted
refractory near-field environment given by the Hicks data (i.e., multiplied the Hicks refractory
values by 2). The 01-D version enriched the near-field refractory environment by multiplying the
Hicks refractory values by 4. Assumption of the enriched refractory near-field environment
resulted in larger fission and activation product inhalation and ingestion correction factors
(Tables 4-8 and 4-12) and increased number of affected organs and the resultant doses (Tables
4-9 and 4-14). Incorporates formal internal and NIOSH review comments. Constitutes a total
rewrite of the document.
- Occupational Internal Dose
(Revised May 28, 2008)
PDF 583 KB (112 pages)
Revision Includes: Approved Revision 01 to incorporate additional information
regarding bioassay procedures used and expanded MDAs. Addresses comments from the Advisory
Board's contractor, and includes guidance to the dose reconstructor in Section 5.6. Adds
Attributions and Annotations Section 5.7. Incorporates formal internal and NIOSH review comments.
Adds Sections 5.6.4 and 5.6.5. Updates boilerplate language in Section 5-1 and adds reference to
OCAS-IG- 003. Constitutes a total rewrite of the document.
- Occupational External Dose
(Page Change Revision May 28, 2008)
PDF 1.7 MB (125 pages)
Page Change Revision Includes: Approved page change revision to incorporate
expanded co-worker data on pages 45 - 47, 49, and 50 in Section 6.4. Text was added to Section
6.5.1 (page 57) and Section 6.5.2 (page 58) to address hot particle issues and the use of the
document Hazards to Personnel Reentering the Nevada Test Site Following Nuclear Reactor Tests.
Changes to attributions and annotations numbering were made on pages 59-61, 67, 68, 92, and
95. No sections were deleted. Made additional changes to correct the wording in Section 6.5.1
on page 57 to be consistent with the information in Section 6.3.5.1 on page 36 regarding the
lead covering on the dosimetry and identification of the25% as a dose correction factor
between the years 1960 and 1965. Corrected the dates in Section 6.3.5.1 on page 36 to be
consistent with the dates in Table 6-1. Added information for Operations BREN and HENRE and
the Super Kukla reactor. As a result of NIOSH formal review the following pages were changed:
9, 12, 13, 17-19, 21, 24 - 34, 36, 37, 39 - 42, 44 - 47, 49 - 66, 68, 71 - 78, 93 - 95, 101, 102,
104, 105, and 110. These changes occurred in the Acronyms and Abbreviations Section, Sections 6.1,
6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, Reference Section, Glossary Section and Attachment A.

Program Evaluation Reports (PERs) and Program Evaluation Plans (PEPs)
NIOSH is committed to applying the best available science in dose reconstructions. In keeping
with this commitment, completed cases with probabilities of causation less than 50% are reviewed
as relevant new information becomes available. The results of these reviews are described in a
Program Evaluation Report (PER). The PER details the effect, if any, of the new information
on the completed dose reconstruction. If it appears that the compensability of a completed dose
reconstruction may be effected, NIOSH is committed to working with the Department of Labor to reopen
and rework the dose reconstruction, as appropriate. A Program Evaluation Plan (PEP) describes plans
for evaluating specific program details or issues.
- PER 32: Nevada Test Site TBD Revisions
PDF 17 KB (2 pages)
Document Number: OCAS-PER-0032 Rev-00
About this Document: Document to determine which previously completed claims
require evaluation for the effect of revising the Nevada Test Site TBD.
Approved: December 18, 2007
Summary: There were 481 Nevada Test Site claims completed prior to July 30, 2007,
(issue date of revision 1) with a probability of Causation below 50% that meet the criteria above.
The dose reconstruction methodology of each will be reviewed to determine if a new dose reconstruction
is necessary to determine if the revisions increase the dose estimate. NIOSH will review these
dose reconstructions to determine if they meet any of the criteria listed in this PER. NIOSH will
provide DOL with the list of 481 claims as well as a determination on each claim as to whether a new
dose estimate is required. Documentation for each claim not requiring a new dose reconstruction will
provide the basis for that determination.

Worker Outreach Activities
Based on a recommendation from the Advisory Board to provide workers
and site experts with opportunities to participate in developing the technical documents used in dose
reconstruction, NIOSH established a Worker Outreach Program.
At Worker Outreach Meetings, current and former DOE and AWE employees have opportunities to obtain
information about Site Profiles, Technical Basis Documents, and Technical Information Bulletins, and to
provide information for consideration and possible use in dose reconstruction. This process is valuable
to ensure that the technical documents used in dose reconstruction contain correct and useful
information.

Advisory Board Work Group on Nevada Test Site, Site Profile
The Nevada Test Site (NTS) Site Profile Work Group was formed in the Spring of 2006. The Work Group
was formed to review the NTS Site Profile document for accuracy and authenticity. The Work Group is
also responsible for reviewing the SC&A Site Profile Review and for tracking the resolution
process for SC&A findings and NIOSH responses. The Work Group is responsible for developing
appropriate recommendations to the Board relating to the Site Profile. In January, 2008, the
Board also tasked the Work Group with reviewing the petition from NTS for adding a class to the
Special Exposure Cohort. The Work Group is responsible to review the NIOSH Evaluation Report (ER)
as well as the SC&A review of the ER, to assist in resolving differences, and for making
appropriate recommendations to the Board.
