There are a sufficent number of people in this agency to implement this responsibility under emergency conditions.

Hampshire Rules for Control of Radiation.
The procedures for environmental monitoring to establish the concentration of radioactive material are cited in Volume 4A, Appendix F8 and FlO.
This generally consists of sampling at the discharge points of the Host Communities at locations specified in the procedures and other points that may be identified by DPHS.
The laboratory analysis of these samples will take place in the DPHS Laboratory in Concord, New Hampshire.
The New Hampshire RERP provides a mechanism for decontamination of vehicles.
Arrangements for vehicle decontamination could be provided during or subsequent to an emergency.
Decontamination Center close down procedures address shutdown, removal of contaminated material and contaminated waste, decontamination, and monitoring.
Contaminated waste will be disposed of by the State through established contractual procedures with qualified radioactive waste handlers, and in conformance with rules promulgated by the DPHS Radiological Health Program for control of radiation.
Contaminated materials will be handlad by New Hampshire Yankee according to the provisions of a letter from George Thomas to me dated May 1 1986.
