eoeeeeoneeeeeeeanenennneanennes POLICY III Dacontenination DISCUSSION General The establishing of degrees of widesirable contamination on persommel is based principally on considerations of the beta dose to the skin. From an operational point of view, probably the most practical method of estimating the beta skin doses is from gumma readings taken with survey instruments even though the evaluation of such measurezents is difficult. Tersonnel monitoring may be considered under two classes, i.6., those token outside a radiation field and those within. In the latter ease it would not be possible to establish prier criteria as to the relative oon= ributions to the seter reading from the contanination on the person and from that on the ground. If it is impractical to perforsz pertceatal moniter= ing outside the econtarinsted area, probsbly the best solution is to estinate the degree of personnel contanination by determining the location of the individual during fallout. The discussion under Policy II suggested that even if one were out-ofedoors during fallout in an area where the whole-body infinity gazma dose was 10 roentgens, there would be relatively little ehance of beta burns occurring.
