Course Objectives: At the end of this course, you will be able to: -Describe the source and magnitude of the threat to the public from a nuclear power plant incident. -Describe preventive and protective measures which may be implemented to protect the public and emergency workers during a nuclear incident, and use the Federal guidance to determine when each of these measures is necessary or appropriate. -Describe the relationship of dose and dose pathway to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) protective action guides (PAGs), early injuries, and early deaths. -Locate the appropriate protective action guide using the EPA Manual of Protective Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents, EPA 400-R-92-001 and the FDA Accidental Radioactive Contamination of Human Food and Animal Feeds: Recommendations for State and Local Agencies, August 13, 1998. -Describe the guidelines and recommendations associated with using potassium iodide as a supplemental public protective action. -Describe suggested protective actions for milk, fruits and vegetables, meat and meat products, poultry and poultry products, soils, grains, and water. -Explain the appropriate techniques, procedures, and available Federal agency capabilities and resources to gather and assess data during and after a nuclear or radiological incident. -Convert from International System of Units (SI) to customary units and customary units to SI using a hand calculator. -Utilize mathematical equations to calculate dose conversion factors (DCFs).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45545487171735,"sku":"9781984334329","price":925.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781984334329.webp?v=1767178179","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/is-303-radiological-accident-assessment-concepts-9781984334329","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
