This standard provides design criteria that require that (1) specific controls and monitoring equipment be provided for achieving and maintaining the plant in a safe shutdown condition, (2) these controls be installed at a location that is physically remote from the Control Room and cable spreading areas, (3) simultaneous control from both locations shall be prevented by administrative controls or devices for transfer of control from the Control Room to the remote location, and (4) the remote controls be used as a defense-in-depth measure in addition to the control room shutdown controls and, as a minimum, provide for one complete channel of shutdown equipment.

CRC Handbook of Management of Radiation Protection Programs, 2nd Edition, is unique in that it offers practical guidance for managing various aspects of radiation protection programs ranging from the daily operation of a health physics office to the preparation of radiation experts for court appearances as professional witnesses. The book also covers such topics as organization and management of nonionizing radiation safety programs (with special emphasis on laser safety programs) and management of radioactive waste, personnel monitoring programs, radiation accident victims, internal exposure, relative radiotoxicity and radiation therapy patients. Other chapters discuss handling radiation accidents and education and training requirements for radiation protection. Legal aspects covered in the book include the history of radiation court cases, legal implications of record keeping, and preparation for court appearances. CRC Handbook of Management of Radiation Protection Programs, 2nd Edition will be a valuable reference resource for medical and health physicists, industrial hygienists, physicians, nuclear engineers, radiation protection regulators, radiation emergency management agents, radiation safety committees, and managers of facilities using ionizing and nonionizing radiation sources.
