  • DOE Standard - Radiological Control. US Department of Energy (DOE) DOE-STD-1098-99, (2004, June), 835 KB PDF, 192 pages. Assists line managers in meeting their responsibilities for implementing occupational radiological control programs.
  • Radiation Control Manuals from Department of Energy (DOE) Laboratories:
    • Fermilab Radiological Control Program. Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), Chapter 1, (1999, September).
    • Radiological Safety. Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC), (2007). Describes the engineering and administrative controls required to maintain personal radiation doses ALARA, to prevent uncontrolled or accidental exposure to ionizing radiation, and to prevent release of radioactive material into the environment.
      • SLAC Radiological Control Manual. (1999, December 31), 1 MB PDF, 268 pages. Summarizes the elements of the Radiological Health and Safety Policy and is intended to guide the actions of every person involved in radiological work at SLAC.
    • LBNL Radiation Safety. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) Health and Safety Manual, PUB-3000, Chapter 21, (1997, December).
    • Jefferson Lab Radiation Control Manual. Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab), (2004, January), 5 MB PDF, 174 pages. Establishes the requirements of Jefferson Lab's Radiation Protection Program (RPP) based on 10 CFR 835 and ensures that Radiation Control activities are conducted in accord with this RPP. Includes formal plans and measures for applying the ALARA process to occupational exposure.
  • Office of Worker Safety and Health - Radiation Protection Policy. US Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Worker Safety and Health Policy. Develops and issues the Department of Energy's occupational radiation protection policy, requirements and guidance. Key regulatory topics covered in 10 CFR 835 include:
    • monitoring individual internal and external radiation dose,
    • radiation safety training,
    • workplace monitoring,
    • As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) programs,
    • radiation detection instrumentation,
    • posting and control of radioactive material,
    • radiation dose reporting.
