Routine Radistion Exposures
The vhole~body ganma effective biological dose for off-site populations
should not exceed 3.9 rcentgens over a period of one yeer.
This total dose
may result From a single exposure or series of expo:ures,
If integritions of dose rate reedinzs ere used in estimating the effective biological doses, then table V may be used.

If film biudges or dose meters are worn on personnel and the evidences
of their use supports the view that the readings are a reasonably accuraic
account of the radiation dose reccived, then the values recorded on the
mb a
film badges uay te accepted with a correction factor of 3/4 to account for
the difference between the dose received by the film badges or dosimeters
(including backscatter) and that received at the tissue depth of five
centimeters.
