Section He-P 4020.14 - Compliance with Dose Limits for Individual Members of the Public(a) The licensee or registrant shall make or cause to be made surveys of radiation levels in unrestricted areas and controlled areas and radioactive materials in effluents released to unrestricted areas and controlled areas to demonstrate compliance with the dose limits for individual members of the public in He-P 4020.13.(b) A licensee or registrant shall show compliance with the annual dose limit in He-P 4020.13 by: (1) Demonstrating by measurement or calculation that the total effective dose equivalent to the individual likely to receive the highest dose from the licensed or registered operation does not exceed the annual dose limit; or(2) Demonstrating that: a. The annual average concentrations of radioactive material released in gaseous and liquid effluents at the boundary of the unrestricted area do not exceed the values specified in He-P 4090, Table 4090.1, Table II; andb. If an individual were continuously present in an unrestricted area, the dose from external sources would not exceed 0.02 mSv (0.002 rem) in an hour and 0.5 mSv (0.05 rem) in a year.(c) Upon approval from the DHHS/RHS in accordance with He-P 4030 and He-P 4040, the licensee or registrant may adjust the effluent concentration values in He-P 4090, Table 4090.1, Table II for members of the public, to take into account the actual physical and chemical characteristics of the effluents, such as: (1) Aerosol size distribution;(4) Radioactive decay equilibrium; andN.H.
