New Assessment Calculations
• Developed and Incorporated the "avoidable
dose" concept into the Deposition Derived
Response Level (DRL) and Exposure Rate
DRL methods,
• Developed and Incorporated the ability to
calculate 'delayed entry' worker protection
guidance,
• Developed and Implementing Alpha DRL, and
Beta DRL methods,
Official Use Only
17
Assessment Method Updates
• Developing additional FRMAC
assessment methods in conjunction with
OGT (e.g., ingestion pathway analysis,
resuspension factor, dose to exposure
conversion factor).
• Held 2 Assessment WG meetings in the
last year to work on and finalize several
of the new methods:
• Several sub-work groups have been spun off
of the Assessment WG
