,0REITV4- U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION Revision 2 November 2005 a REGULATORY GUIDE OFFICE OF NUCLEAR REGULATORY RESEARCH REGULATORY GUIDE 8.7 (Draft was issued as DG-8029, dated May 2005)
INSTRUCTIONS FOR RECORDING AND REPORTING OCCUPATIONAL RADIATION DOSE DATA A. INTRODUCTION In Title 10, Part 20, of the Code ofFederalRegulations (10 CFR Part 20), 'Standards for Protection Against Radiation," Section 20.1502 establishes "Conditions Requiring Individual Monitoring of External and Internal Occupational Dose." Specifically, 10 CFR 20.1502 requires licensees to provide radiation monitoring for all occupationally exposed individuals who might receive a dose in excess of the specified percentage of the limits defined in I0 CFR 20.1201, 1207, or 1208. To augment that provision. 10 CFR 20.2106, "Records of Individual Monitoring Results," requires licensees to maintain records of the radiation exposures of all individuals for whom personnel monitoring is required pursuant to 10 CFR 20.1502. Also, according to 10 CFR 20.2104, "Determination of Prior Occupational Dose." licensees shall determine the dose in the current monitoring year for all persons who must be monitored. and attempt to obtain the records of cumulative occupational radiation dose. In addition, 10 CFR 20.2104(b) requires that, prior to permitting an individual to participate in a planned special exposure, licensees shall determine the internal and external doses from all previous planned special exposures, and record all previous doses in excess of the limits received during the lifetime of the individual. Licensees are required to maintain prior dose records on NRC Form 4 or its equivalent (Appendix A to this guide). Further, 10 CFR 20.2206.
"Reports of Individual Monitoring," requires certain licensees to submit to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) an annual report of the results of individual monitoring. Licensees are required to record these annual reports on NRC Form 5 or its equivalent (Appendix B to this guide).
Tie U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issues regulatory guides to desoribe and make kailable to the public metods that the NRC ataff considers acceptable for use in implenenting specific parts of the agency's regulations. techniques that the staff uses In evaluating specific problems or postulated accidents, and data that the stiff need in reviewing applications for permits and licenses. Regulatory guides are not substitutes for regulations. and compliance with them is not required Methods and solutions that cdffer from those set forth in regulatory guides will be deemed acceptable if they provide a basis for the findings required for the issuance or continuance of i permit or license by me Commission.
This guide was issued after consideration of comments received from the public. The NRC staff encourages and welcomes comments end suggestions in connection with Improvements to published regulatory guides, as well as Items for Incluson in regulatory auldes tt. are currently being developed. The NRC staft will revise ex4stng guides, as appropriate. to accommodate comments and to refect new information or esperience. Written comments may be submitted to the Rules and Directives Branch.
Ofltce of Administration, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Washington. DC 20555-0001.
Regulatory guides are issued In 10 broad divisions: 1, Power Reactors: 2. Research and Test Reactors: 3, Fuels and Materials Facilities; 4, Environmental and Siting:
- 5. AtlerIals and Plant Protedon; 6, products: 7, Transportation; 8, Occupational Health: S. Antitrust and Financial Review; and 10. General.
Requests for single copies of draft, or active regulatory guides (which may be reproduced) should be made to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555. Attention: Reproduction and Distribution Services Section. or by faxto (301) 415-2289: or by email to D2stributmondnrc.oov. Electronic copies f this guide and other recently issued guides are available through the NRC's public Web sie under the Regulatory Guides document collection of the NRC's Electronic Reading Room at htfttr £&.nrc.oovrreadinrnomdocaollectionst and through the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management Systern (ADAMS) at h11!jV.'ww nrc.oovnreatiino-rmjadams-htrn, under Accession No. ML052970092.
This guide describes an acceptable program for the preparation, retention, and reporting of records of occupational radiation doses. It includes copies of NRC Forms 4 and 5. as well as detailed instructions for completing those forms.
Any information collections mentioned in this regulatory guide are established as requirements in 10 CFR Part 20. which provides the regulatory basis for this guide. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved those information collection requirements under OMB control number 3150-0014. The OMB has also approved the existing requirements for NRC Forms 4 and S under approval numbers 3150-0005 and 3150-0006. However, the amended information collection requirements reflected in this guide will not become effective until they receive OMB approval. Notice of OMB approval will be published in the FederalRegister. The NRC may neither conduct nor sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to. an information collection request or requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid OMB control number.
B. DISCUSSION This guide is structured to reflect the process a licensee would follow to decide whether monitoring for occupational exposure to radiation is required under the revised 10 CFR Part 20.
Toward that end, this guide describes acceptable methods for determining prior doses, recording monitoring results, and reporting those results, when required, to comply with 10 CFR Part 20.
This guide also includes copies of NRC Forms 4 and 5, as well as detailed instructions for completing those forms. In addition. Appendix C to this guide discusses the format for electronic submittal of dose data to the NRC.
The term "total organ dose equivalent" (TODE) has been added to denote the sum of the deep dose equivalent (DDE) and the committed dose equivalent (CDE) to the organ receiving the highest dose.
as described in 10 CFR 20.2106(a)(6).
RG 8.7. Rev. 2, Page 2
C. REGULATORY POSITION
- 1. Determining the Need To Monitor According to 10 CFR 20.1502, monitoring is required if an adult is likely to receive in a calendar year a dose greater than the specified percentage of the limits defined in 10 CFR 20.1201.
1207, or 1208, or is entering a high or very high radiation area. The licensee should evaluate the dose that such an individual is likely to receive before allowing the individual to receive the dose. The licensee need not perform a dose evaluation for every individual; evaluations can be performed for employees with similar job functions or work areas. Regulatory Guide 8.34, "Monitoring Criteria and Methods To Calculate Occupational Radiation Doses" (July 1992), provides further guidance for use in determining the need to monitor an individual's occupational radiation dose.
1.1 IfMonitoringIs Not Required If the prospective evaluation shows that an individual is not likely to receive in a calendar year a dose that exceeds the specified percentage of the limits defined in 10 CFR 20.1201, 1207, or 1208.
10 CFR Part 20 does not require recordkeeping or reporting regarding the individual's dose. For individuals who received a dose at other facilities in the current year, the previous dose need not be considered in this prospective evaluation. Only the dose that could be received at the facility performing the evaluation need be considered when determining the need for monitoring and, therefore. the recordkeeping and reporting requirements. If the licensee determines that monitoring is not required and a subsequent evaluation shows that the individual exceeded (or will exceed) the monitoring limit threshold, the licensee should estimate. record, and report the dose received when monitoring was not provided.
These estimates can be based on any combination of work location radiation monitoring or survey results.
monitoring results of individuals in similar work situations, or other estimates to produce a "best estimate" of the actual dose received.
If monitoring is not required to demonstrate compliance with all limits, but is required relative to one or more specific limits, the licensee should enter "NR" for "Not Required" in the blocks on NRC Forms 4 and 5 to indicate the areas for which monitoring was not required (e.g., extremity or skin doses).
Where monitoring was provided but the dose was not measurable, the licensee should enter "ND" for
'Not Detectable."
1.2 If Monitoring Is Required If the prospective evaluation shows that an individual is likely to receive in a calendar year a dose that exceeds the specified percentage of the limits defined in 10 CFR 20.1201, 1207, or 1208, 10 CFR 20.1502 requires monitoring. In addition. 10 CFR 20.2106(a) and 20.2206(b), respectively, require recording and reporting of the monitoring results. regardless of the actual dose received (even if the actual dose received is less than the dose limits for which monitoring is required).
RG 8.7. Rev. 2. Page 3
1.3 Documentatinn of PriorDoses For those individuals for whom monitoring is required (i.e., individuals who are likely to receive in a calendar year, an occupational dose requiring monitoring pursuant to J0 CFR 20.1502). 10 CFR 202104 requires a determination of the individual's current year dose at other facilities. For individuals entering a high or very high radiation area determination of current year prior occupational dose is not required unless the individual is likely to receive in a year, an occupational dose greater than the specified percentage of the limits defined in 10 CFR 20.1201, 1207, or 1208. To document that determination, the licensee is required to obtain an NRC Form 4 signed by the individual to be monitored, or a written statement that includes the names of all facilities that monitored the individual for occupational exposure to radiation during the current year and an estimate of the dose received. Although not required by the regulations.
it is considered good health physics practice to verify the information provided by the individual.
Verification may be documented in any of the following ways:
- an NRC Form 5 for each listed monitoring period
- electronic, telephone, or facsimile transfer of dose data provided by licensees listed on the written statement
- an NRC Form 4 countersigned by a licensee or current employer In addition, 10 CFR 20.2104(aX2) requires that licensees must attempt to obtain records of the individual's lifetime cumulative occupational radiation dose. To demonstrate compliance with this requirement. the individual to be monitored may provide a written estimate of the cumulative lifetime dose or an up-to-date NRC Form 4 signed by the individual. The licensee need not verify this information, so long as the individual does not participate in a planned special exposure.
NRC Forms 4 and 5. termination letters, andlor reports that document the results of monitoring performed before implementation of the 1991 revision of 10 CFR Part 20 may be used without recalculating dose according to the requirements of the 1991 revision of 10 CFR Part 20. For the purpose of assessing prior dose, whole body dose, in rem, as reported on the old NRC Forms 4 and 5 (from 1981 or earlier) can be considered equivalent to total effective dose equivalent (TEDE).
1.4 Records of PriorDosefor PersonsParticipatingin PlannedSpecial Exposures If the monitored individual has any periods of exposure (throughout his or her life) that have not been monitored and documented, the individual is not permitted to participate in a planned special exposure. Acceptable documentation of prior exposure is similar to that required to document current-year exposure. The licensee may ask the NRC to provide a report of the monitored individual's exposure history, by submitting a request via the NRC's Radiation Exposure Information and Reporting System (REIRS) for Radiation Workers (a secure web site) at htt:.--/www.reirs.com. Alternatively, the licensee may send a request signed by the monitored individual to the following point-of-contact:
REIRS Project Manager Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555 Each request should contain the social security number (or other unique identifier) of the monitored individual authorizing release of the information and the name and address of the person or licensee to whom the report should be sent. The NRC's REIRS database contains copies of all licensee exposure records submitted to the NRC. However, the database only contains reports submitted by the seven classes of licensees that 10 CFR Part 20 requires to report occupational exposures. Any missing monitoring periods should be obtained directly from licensees.
RG 8.7. Rev. 2. Page 4
1.5 Use ofID Types Other than Social Security Number Doses to individuals who do not have a social security number. such as citizens of foreign countries, and individuals who are either unwilling or unable to provide (cannot locate or do not want to disclose) a social security number. should be reported using another unique identifier. It is important to record the type of identification in the data block labeled "ID Type," which follows the "Identification Number" data block on NRC Forms 4 and 5. The instructions on the back of these forms define all valid ID types.
Licensees should insert the appropriate code (listed below) in the blank labeled "ID Type".
ID TYPE CODE U.S. Social Security Number SSN Passport Number PPN Canadian Social Insurance Number CSI Work Permit Number WPN INDEX Identification Number IND PADS Identification Number PAD Other OTH The use of licensee-generated identification numbers should be avoided whenever possible.
- 2. Records of Monitoring Results for Individuals for Whom Monitoring Is Required The preparation of NRC Form 5 with the information clearly and legibly shown, or the collection of all information requested by NRC Form 5 using paper or electronic media (see Appendix C). is required by 10 CFR 20.2106. The licensee shall maintain such records for each individual for whom occupational monitoring is required by 10 CFR 20.1502. In addition, certain classes of licensees are required to report the results of this monitoring to the NRC, pursuant to 10 CFR 20.2206, either by submitting copies of NRC Form 5 or by transmitting the required information to the NRC through electronic media.
This report, covering the preceding year, must be filed on or before April 30 of each year. NRC Form 5 provides instructions and additional information pertinent to each item.
2.1 Multiple Badges Regulatory Guide 8.34, "Monitoring Criteria and Methods To Calculate Occupational Radiation Doses" (July 1992). provides further guidance on interpreting the results of multiple dosimetric devices placed at different locations on the body to track doses to various parts of the whole body. In addition.
NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2002-06, "Evaluating Occupational Doses Exposed to NRC-Licensed Material and Medical X-rays" (April 16, 2002), provides additional guidance.
RG 8.7, Rev. 2, Page 5
2.2 Dose Calculationsfor CDE and TODE to the Maximally Exposed Organ As required by 10 CFR 20.2106(aX6), licensees shall record, when applicable, the total organ dose equivalent (TODE), which is the sum of the deep dose equivalent (DDE) and the committed dose equivalent (CDE) to the organ receiving the highest dose (the maximally exposed organ). For cases where the licensee is using effective dose equivalent (EDE) in lieu of DDE (please refer to NRC Regulatory Issue Summary 2003-04, "Use of the Effective Dose Equivalent in Place of the Deep Dose Equivalent in Dose Assessments'), record the EDE in item number 1 1 of NRC Form 5 and note in the comment block that EDE is being used in lieu of DDE. Organ doses need not be calculated if the committed effective dose equivalent (CEDE) does not exceed I rem, and there are no overexposures in any dose category within the monitoring year, including doses previously reported by other licensees.
In this case, the licensee may record "NC" for "Not Calculated" in items 16 and 18 on NRC Forms 4 and 5. If during the course of the year, the CEDE to date for the year exceeds 1 remn or the individual receives an overexposure in another dose category, the licensee is required to calculate, record, and report the CDE and TODE to the maximally exposed organ. When the CDE and TODE to the maximally exposed organ are required to be calculated, the licensee should refer to Regulatory Guide 8.34, "Monitoring Criteria and Methods To Calculate Occupational Radiation Doses" (July 1992).
2.3 Dose to the Embryo/Fetus A declared pregnant worker is a worker who has voluntarily informed her employer (in writing) of her pregnancy and the estimated month and year of conception. In such instances, the licensee shall record the dose to the embryo/fetus for the entire gestation period [10 CFR 20.2106(e)], but need not include that information on NRC Forms 4 and 5. Multiple records are not required in the case of multiple births (twins, triplets, etc.). Licensees are required to record any dose measured to demonstrate compliance with 10 CFR 20.1208.
Licensees should be sensitive to the issue of personal privacy with regard to the dose to the embryo/fetus. If requested by the monitored woman. a letter report may be provided to subsequent licensees to document prior embryo/fetus dose. Regulatory Guide 8.36, "Radiation Dose to the Embryo/Fetus" (July 1992), provides further guidance on assessing the dose to the embryo/fetus.
2.4 Transmittal of.Reports to the NRC As required by 10 CFR 20.2206(c), certain licensees are required to submit reports of monitoring for the previous year to the NRC on or before April 30 of each year. According to 10 CFR 20.2206(b),
'...The licensee shall use Form NRC 5 or electronic media containing all the information required by Form NRC 5." Licensees shall submit their reports to the REIRS Project Manager by an appropriate method listed in 10 CFR 20.1007 or via the REIRS Web site at htto:i/Nkvw.reirs.com. Reports submitted by mail should be addressed as follows:
REIRS Project Manager Office of Nuclear Regulatory Research U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, DC 20555 2.5 Electronic Reporting of Dose Data Licensees (especially those with a large number of monitored individuals) are encouraged to record and report these data electronically. Appendix C to this guide provides guidance for reporting radiation dose data to the NRC in an electronic, machine-readable format.
RG 8.7. Rev. 2, Page 6
D. IMPLEMENTATION The purpose of this section is to provide information to applicants and licensees regarding the NRC staff's plans for using this guide. No backfitting is intended or approved in connection with the issuance of this guide.
Except in those cases in which an applicant or licensee proposes or has previously established an acceptable alternative method for complying with specified portions of the NRC's regulations, the methods to be described in the active guide will reflect public comments and will be used in evaluating (I) submittals in connection with applications for new licenses, license renewals, and license amendments, and (2) compliance with 10 CFR 20.1001-20.2401.
SMALL BUSINESS REGULATORY ENFORCEMENT FAIRNESS ACT The NRC staff has determined that this final action is subject to the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 because it is the whole or part of a final agency action that has general applicability and future effect designed to implement, interpret, or prescribe law or policy. However.
the final action does not constitute a 'major ruler as defined in S U.S.C. 804(2).
REGULATORY ANALYSIS The NRC staff did not prepare a separate regulatory analysis for this regulatory guide.
The regulatory analysis prepared for 10 CFR Part 20, "Standards for Protection Against Radiation" (56 FR 23360). also provides the regulatory basis for this guide and examines the costs and benefits of the rule as implemented by the guide. A copy of the "Regulatory Analysis for the Revision of 10 CFR Part 20" (PNL-67112, dated November 1988), is available (as an enclosure to 10 CFR Part 20) for inspection and copying for a fee at the NRC's Public Document Roon. located at 11555 Rockville Pike, Rockville, Maryland.

APPENDIX C FORMAT FOR ELECTRONIC SUBMITTAL OF DOSE DATA Introduction This appendix outlines a means by which licensees may satisfy the requirements of 10 CFR 20.2206, "Reports of Individual Monitoring." Where practicable, the NRC prefers to have licensees submit an electronic file via the Radiation Exposure Information and Reporting System (REIRS) for Radiation Workers (a secure Web site) at htty://www.reirs.com. Regardless of submittal method. licensees who have their exposure records in an electronic format are encouraged to submit electronic files. This is especially important for those licensees who have a large number of monitored individuals, because data entry is inefficient and can introduce an additional source of error.
Media Requirements For electronic data mailed to the REIRS Project Manager (PM), the following data storage media are compatible with REIRS. Other data submission formats may also be acceptable. The NRC will provide additional guidance to licensees upon request to the REIRS Project Manager.
PC Diskettes: 3!'-inch Standard IBM-PC format ASCII character format Compact Disk (CD-ROM): Standard IBM-PC format ASCII character format Transmittal Letters For electronic files that are not submitted through the REIRS Web site, the licensee should also submit a transmittal letter containing information that will minimize processing time and help resolve possible discrepancies. Each letter should contain the following information (as a minimum):
File name Descriptive name of the file(s) contained on the disk Date created Date each filc was created Operating system Operating system and version used to format the disk Contact Name and telephone number of the cognizant point-of-contact Other instructions Comments or explanation regarding the submission, the actual date, the data format, or other important information Signature and date Dated signature of the licensee's authorized representative responsible for the data Appendix C to RG 8.7, Rev. 2, Page C- I
Expected Data Each licensee is expected to submit one routine NRC Form 5 for each monitored individual at the given facility for each monitoring year. Licensees should also submit a separate NRC Form S for each individual for whom planned special exposures were authorized. Because there should be few repetitions, the employee information is included on the Form 5. The primary license number is also included on each Form 5 to ensure that the records are assigned to the proper facility.
File Structure The file structure consists of a header record, which provides information about the source of the data file, followed by Form 5 dose records and supporting Form S intake records. Where applicable, the file imay also include one or more Form 5 comment records to explain special exposure calculations or overexposures. Each record contains only ASCII or EBCDIC printable characters and is terminated with a carriage return (CR) and a fine feed (LF). All empty space in a field is padded with spaces. Text strings are left justified in a field, and numbers are right justified in a field.
HeaderRecord The header record occurs only once at the top of each file to identify the source of the data.
