During my tour of duty at NUMI, I performed additional duties as Radiation Safety Officer of record for the Naval Hospital at Groton, Cr. I trained and mentored Medical Service Corps Officers for their required one year supervised training prior to assuming >

duties as RSO. Supervised the conduct of X-ray machine performance testing until the I incumbent officer was ready to act independently. I performed duties of the laser Systems Safety Officer (LSSO) at the Naval Hospital until my relief received proper training.

Served as a member of the U.S. Atlantic Fleet Nuclear Weapons Inspection Team performing health physics evaluations of weapons handling practices. I terminated NUMI's Special Nuclear Materials License and shipped their PuBe source to les Almos National ,

I Imboratory in 1990.

1986 to 1989:

Radiation Safety Officer at the Naval Hospital Groton, CT where I supervised the radiation i health and safety programs for the radiology and nuclear medicine departments. I

! administered the dos'i metry programs for the hospital, a large dental command, the Naval L

Underwater Research I2boratory, and the naval contingent at the General Dynamics Electric l Boat Facility. I performed dose estimations in the event of lost of damaged dosimetry.

Performed duties as the Radiation Safety Officer of record on the U.S.NRC licenses for the Naval Hospital (Medical Use of Byproduct Material 06-12193-02), and the Naval Medical Research 12boratory (Broad Scope Material for Research 06-01765-03). Developed, reviewed, and monitored hospital plans for the treatment and management of radiological casualties. I trained emergency room staff in the duties involved with radiological casualty treatments, and made radiological assessments and recommendations in these cases. I conducted drills and exercises to evaluate and insure proper performance of hospital response teams. I was the Laser Systems Safety Officer (LSSO) for the hospital's Ophthalmology department.

i During my tour of duty at the Naval Hospital Groton, I also served as the Navy's N:rtheast Regional Radiation Health and Safety Officer (this region include all naval activities in the states of NY, NJ, PA, CT, VT, NH, MA, RI, and ME). I provided these facilities with technical advise and guidance, on-site support, and inspections to insure compliance with state, federal, and navy regulations for all matters involving ionizing and non-ionizing radiation. Supervised the radiation safety programs for the nuclear medicine and radiology departments at the U. S. Naval Hospitals in Philadelphia, PA, and Newport, RL I conducted the required radiation protection survey and equipment performance testing of more than 100 diagnostic medical and dental X-ray _ machines in all the naval hospitals and clinics in this nine state region. I made recommendations for calibration, repair, and/or replacement as warranted. Performed health physics evaluations as a member of the U.S. Atlantic Fleet Nuclear Weapons Inspection Team. In September 1988, I performed all the duties associated with the termination of the Broad Scope Byproduct Materials license at the Naval Underwater Research laboratory, and decommissioned their nuclear laboratory spaces, allowing them to be released for unrestricted use.

.: o b.;- O 1984 to 1986:

Instructor: My initial assignment after graduate school was to the Naval Undersea Medical Institute in Groton, CT, where I instructed naval medical personnel in the fundamentals of

radiation health and safety in the Naval Nuclear power Program. I was the lead instructor for courses in radiation Biology, Nuclear Physics, Non-ionizing radiation, and Radiation health Program Administration. My students were hospital corpsmen and physicians who l

would support fleet units around the world. I received, and continue to hold, appointment as l

an Adjunct Instructor in Health Care Sciences on the staff of George Washington University.

l During this assignment I also performed duties a the Radiation Safety Officer of record on i two U.S. NRC radioactive materials licenses. One for Special Nuclear Materials (SI'04-310), and one for Broad Scope Byproduct Material (06-1765-01). All materials were used f:r training at NUMI. I passed Part One of the American Board of Health Physics Certification Examination in 1984 l
