This report describes unusual health physics problems, such as shielding modifications required, encountered with start-up and operation of the Sandia pulsed reactor. Included are: integral radiation doses received from primary and scattered neutron radiation; gamma radiation doses resulting from fission products in the reactor itself; and neutron induced radioactivities in the air, walls, and floor of the reactor building. Also listed are present health physics procedures and personnel dose histories.
