RADIATION PROTECTION The Radiation Safety program assures the safety of students and employees who might be exposed to the University's sources of radiation in the course of their work. The major portion of the program works under the authority of the Faculty/Administration Radiation Use Committee and oversees all uses of radioactive material on campus. This program coordinates and maintains the University's materials licenses to use radioactive materials on campus and assures compliance. The services include, maintenance of inventory and control of all radioisotopes on campus, receipt and delivery of all radioactive material, and radioactive waste pickup and disposal. Additional services include survey instrument calibration, operation of the personnel dosimetry program, training in the safe use of radioisotopes for research, safety inspections, and guidance in the safe use of x-rays, lasers, and microwave devices. |
