DOSE CALCULATIONS FOR USS MOLALA (ATF-106).
MOLALAexperienced relatively light fallout following Shots BRAVO, ROMEO,and

NECTAR,and routine crew duties were probably not altered by its occurrence. The daily film
badge dose is calculated by multiplying the contributions to exposure, both topside and below
(from table 3.5), by the appropriate time-averaged shielding factor or apportionmentfactor.
Contributions from each source are summed and converted to a film badge dose. Cumulative film
badge doses are given in table 4.5 and have been carried out through 31 May 1954, by which time
dose accural falls below 1 mrem per day.
