plans, and public perceptions. This course provides a<br />

sound understanding of basic planning assumptions<br />

and policy issues.<br />

Selection Criteria: Local, State, Federal, and Tribal<br />

government and utility personnel involved in<br />

off-site nuclear power plant emergency planning<br />

(under the provisions of Nuclear Regulatory Guide<br />

radiological accident assessment<br />

concepts (raac) (E341)<br />

This course addresses radiological consequences<br />

of accidents involving radiological materials.<br />

This includes accidents or incidents involving<br />

commercial power reactors, lost sources, dispersion<br />

devices, and transportation. The focus of the course<br />

is concepts involved in <strong>for</strong>mulating protective action<br />

recommendations following a radiological accident,<br />

such as dose quantities, atmospheric dispersion,<br />

dose projection, protective action guides, and<br />

derived intervention levels. Participants engage in<br />

problem-solving sessions and a tabletop exercise.<br />

There are two required evening sessions and a<br />

final examination in this course.<br />

Selection Criteria: Enrollment is limited to local, State, and<br />

Federal technical radiological accident assessment staff.<br />

Private sector (i.e., utility company) technical staff also<br />

may apply. This course is not intended <strong>for</strong> emergency<br />

management staff. This course requires familiarity<br />

with mathematical equations and exponential<br />

manipulations. Participants must bring a scientific<br />

calculator which they know how to use to per<strong>for</strong>m the<br />

required calculations. Participants also should know<br />

how to use Microsoft Excel and the Nuclear Regulatory<br />
