ERRATA AND ADDENDA In response to comments received on the December 1997 Multi-Agency Radiation Survey and Site Investigation Manual (MARSSIM), minor modifications were made to individual pages. Modifications to the manual that correct errors are listed as errata, while modifications made to clarify guidance or provide additional information are referred to as addenda. The pages affected by these modifications are listed here and have the date of the modification in the footer. A complete list of comments and resolutions is available on the MARSSIM web site at: http://www.epa.gov/radiation/marssim/ August 2000 Pages Modified to Correct Errata v, xv, xxvii, Roadmap-4, 1-3, 2-6, 2-11, 2-12, 4-33, 4-35, 4-36, 4-37, 4-38, 5-33, 6-4, 6-10, 6-23, 6-37, 7-20, 8-19, 9-3, 9-4, 9-7, Ref-3, Ref-4, A-2, A-5, A-7, A-11, A-14, A-19, E-2, H-7, H-8, H- 10, H-12, H-14, H-16, H-32, I-30, N-2, N-6, N-8, N-11, N-13 Pages Modified to Provide Addenda xiii, xxiii, xxviii, 5-30, 5-34, 7-8, C-20, C-21, D-23, I-5, L-2, L-3, L-4, L-5, L-8, , M-10 June 2001 Pages Modified to Correct Errata v, xxiii, xxviii, Roadmap-8, 4-24, 5-12, 6-16 6-30, 6-37, 8-19, C-19 Pages Modified to Provide Addenda 8-23 August 2002 Pages Modified to Correct Errata Ref-3, Ref-4, Ref-8, L-1, L-2, L-3, L-4, L-5, L-6, L-7 Pages Modified to Provide Addenda 2-4, 3-12, 4-11, GL-11 MARSSIM, Revision 1 xxviii August 2002
Introduction to MARSSIM ROADMAP The Multi-Agency Radiation Survey and Site Investigation Manual (MARSSIM) provides detailed guidance for planning, implementing, and evaluating environmental and facility radiological surveys conducted to demonstrate compliance with a dose- or risk-based regulation. The MARSSIM guidance focuses on the demonstration of compliance during the final status survey following scoping, characterization, and any necessary remedial actions. The process of planning the survey, implementing the survey plan, and assessing the survey results prior to making a decision is called the Data Life Cycle. MARSSIM Chapter 2 and Appendix D provide detailed guidance on developing appropriate survey designs using the Data Quality Objectives (DQO) Process to ensure that the survey results are of sufficient quality and quantity to support the final decision. The survey design process is described in MARSSIM Chapters 3, 4, and 5. Guidance on selecting appropriate measurement methods (i.e., scan surveys, direct measurements, samples) and measurement systems (i.e., detectors, instruments, analytical methods) is provided in MARSSIM Chapters 6 and 7 and Appendix H. Data Quality Assessment (DQA) is the process of assessing the survey results, determining that the quality of the data satisfies the objectives of the survey, and interpreting the survey results as they apply to the decision being made. The DQA process is described in MARSSIM Chapter 2 and Appendix E and is applied in MARSSIM Chapter 8. Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures are developed and recorded in survey planning documents, such as a Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) which is described in MARSSIM Chapter 9. MARSSIM does not provide guidance for translating the release criterion into derived concentration guideline levels (DCGLs). MARSSIM discusses contamination of surface soil and building surfaces in detail. If other media (e.g., ground water, surface water, subsurface soil, equipment, vicinity properties) are potentially contaminated at the time of the final status survey, modifications to the MARSSIM survey design guidance and examples may be required. The Goal of the Roadmap The goal of the roadmap is to present a summary of the major steps in the design, implementation, and assessment of a final status survey and to identify where guidance on these steps is located in MARSSIM. A brief description of each step is included in the roadmap along with references to the sections of MARSSIM that provide more detailed guidance. This roadmap provides the user with basic guidance from MARSSIM combined with “rules of thumb” (indicated by L) for performing compliance demonstration surveys. The roadmap is not designed to be a stand-alone document, but to be used as a quick reference to MARSSIM for August 2000 Roadmap-1 MARSSIM, Revision 1
