RADIATION AREA RESTRICTIONS FOR TOUR GROUPS AT FERMILAB
Radiation is a natural part of our environment. The average
individual receives about 360 millirem (mrem) per year from background
sources (e.g., naturally occurring materials in soil, cosmic rays from outer
space, dental x-rays, etc.). At Fermilab there are some areas where radiation
levels above natural background levels may exist due to the operation of our
accelerators. If radiation levels exceed 5 mrem/hr, the area is
designated as a Radiation Area and posted with signs.
Scientific tours with valid technical needs may be permitted to visit
experimental or accelerator areas that are posted as Radiation Areas.
Visitors to such areas must be escorted by a tour guide who is
currently trained as a radiation worker at Fermilab and is otherwise
qualified to enter such areas. Tours to such areas shall be approved by the
division/section head responsible for the area. Members of tours
shall be provided an orientation commensurate with the hazards presented in
the area and assigned dosimetry in accordance with Article 941 of the
Fermilab Radiological Control Manual, which give the details of the
Laboratory policy on such visits.
