J-10~57 «je 12 November 1954 project officer or someone outside the Test Director's organizations he Film badges. We propose to simplify the film badge business for the user by” satting up a system in which the clerical work need mt be done at the time of issue or return of the badge. At the issue counter there will be three boxes. The first will contain unused badges. Ths second will contain small forms with blanks for film badge number, name, security badge number, issue date, processing date and dose. The third box will be for the partially completed forms. The user will pick up a badge and a form, write on the form the film badge number, his name, his security badges mmber and the date, and put the form in a third box. Anyone who wants or needs a film badge may get one in this way and in fact may pick up badges for other people. for each badge, A separate card must be filled out . The cards will be placed in a live file when the clerks get aroumd to it and will be kept there until the badges is turned ine Badges may be turnsd in at the Rad-Safe building or at the contamination check-point on ths mein highway. The badgés will be matched with the cards in the live file and sent for processing. The processing date and dose will be recorded on the card. After the dose is recorded on an individual's accimuleted dose record the card will be placed in a dead file or destroyed. In any case it will not again appear in the live file. Conceivably the Rad-Safe people will be able to simplify the procedure even more by attaching a correctly mimbsred and dated file card to a film bedee ahead of time. The user would then have to fill in only his name ard security badge number. Where badces are picked up for others the person who picks them up must se3 that the right badge gets to the right person. Project officers will be responsible for seeing that their people who have contimiuing clearance turn in used film badges reasonably often. In most cases this need not be every day. New badges will always be required when any type of clearame is granted, initial entry, specific entry, or con= timing, Badges must be turned in after initial and specific entries and the termination of continuing clearance. Carrying more than one badge into a contaminated area will cause trouble ali the way around unless Rad-Safe is advised ahsad of timee If somsone else picked up a badge for you be sure you have turned your old one in or at least don't carry both of them. 5. Decontanination. The general principle to be followed is that decom tavination of venicles, clothing and people thanuselves is required before each entry to a ®clean® area.
