Question 415: This question refers to the answer to
Question 41 under ยง20.1201. This answer leaves open what
is an acceptable frequency for querying monitored workers.
This is only an issue of monitored workers, isn't it? In
the interest of workload minimization, I suggest that an
annual query / reminder along with the required annual 10 CFR
19 dosimetry report is adequate.
Answer: The requirements of 10 CFR 20.1201 (f) and the
answer to Question 41 apply to any individual who will
receive an occupational dose, not just those individuals
for whom individual monitoring is required. The frequency
for querying / reminding workers should be determined by the
licensee; however, given that the dose limit is annual, the
frequency should be no less than annually. (Reference: 10
CFR 20.1201).
