ISLAND SURFACE CONTAMINATION EVALUATION DOE/ERSP PROCEDURE NO. 1 DATE DRAFTED: 27 September 1977 APPROVED: 3 October 1977 by Paul B. Dunaway (ERSP Manager) L IH, HL ERSP Manager A, Is responsible for the overall program. B. Shall, with the concurrence of the JTG Commander, select the islands to be in situ surveyed. C. Shall assure that the survey reference points are established for the island(s). . Shall approve the grid size and orientation to the reference points as performed by the Army or FRST surveyors. The initial grid size will depend on closeness of the particular island eriteria to expected activity. The ERSP Manager should approve these criteria because operational needs may dictate approach (e.g., coarse grid for early part of survey with finer grid required depending on need). E. Shall recommend to the DNA as to where soil should be removed based on the measured activity. Tech Advisor A. Coordinate with EG&G scientist and DRI statistician to establish grid size. B. Review estimate plots (will be similar to Figures A-1-1, -2 and -3*), conversion factors (ratios, van calibration, ete.), soil sampling results and error terms and advise ERSP Manager on believability. Recommend to the ERSP Manager as to where soil should be removed. C. Select 4-hectare parcels to be soil sampled from the island grid (see Procedure No. 4). D. Assure that the high level sample (4000 cpm FIDLER) are field evaluated and the data recorded/report ed. E, Audit quality of van measurements, lab processing, soil sampling techniques, and advise ERSP Manager on quality of in situ survey program. EG&G Functions A. Provide scientist to direct operation of in situ vans and perform technical duties listed below. B. Operate and maintain in situ vans. C. Make in situ measurements and certify their quality, listing limitations. D. Document the physical environmentin the vicinity of each measurement. E. Transmit the in situ data to DRI, including the printout of each spectrum** and isotopes detected. (DOE will audit this printout. Figure A-1-4 is a specimen of the final portion of a spec trum.) * Original procedure contained 7 pages of output specimens. **Spec trum printouts were all retained by EG&G.
