DESCRIPTION:The Turbo FRMAC (TF) softwar automates the calculations described in volumes 1-3 of "The Federal Manual for Assessing Environmental Data Durinig a Radiological Emergency". This software automates the process of assessing radiological data during a Federal Radiological Emergency. The manual upon which the software is based is unclassified and freely available on the Internet. TF takes values generated by field samples or computer dispersion models and assesses the data in a way which is meaningful to a decision maker at a radiological emergency; such as, do radiation value exceed city, state, or federal limits; should the crops be destroyed or can they be utilized; do residents need to be evacuated, sheltered in place, or should another action taken. The software also uses formulas generated by the EPA, FDA, and other federal agencies to generate field observable values specific to the radiological event that can be used to determine where regulatory limit values are exceeded. In addition to these calculatons, TF calculates values which indicate how long an emergency worker can work in the contaminated area during a radiological emergency, the dose received from drinking contaminated water or milk, the dose from eating contaminated food, the dose expected down or upwind of a given field sample, along with a significant number of other similar radiological health values.
