Radiological effluent technical

Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for Pressurized Water Reactors," U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, NUREG-0472, Rev. 3, September 1982. 

Over the past several years Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (RETS) have been implemented at nuclear power facilities in the United States. These RETS control the evaluation and release of radioactive material to the off-site environs. Radiological measurements of these releases are conducted using gamma spectroscopy, liquid scintillation, gross counting techniques and continuous on-line monitoring. 

The RC HP program consists of guidelines, management and worker philosophies, practices, instructions, and procedures that are used to accomplish administrative controls of site personnel activities,. work practices, effluent releases fix>m the site waste shipments, and their records. It provides technical support for radiological studies and for radiolo t traiiung programs.
