RADIATION AREA RESTRICTIONS FOR TOUR GROUPS AT FERMILAB

Radiation is a natural part of our environment. The average individual receives about 360 millirem (mrem) per year from background sources (e.g., naturally occurring materials in soil, cosmic rays from outer space, dental x-rays, etc.). At Fermilab there are some areas where radiation levels above natural background levels may exist due to the operation of our accelerators. If radiation levels exceed 5 mrem/hr, the area is designated as a Radiation Area and posted with signs.

Scientific tours with valid technical needs may be permitted to visit experimental or accelerator areas that are posted as Radiation Areas. Visitors to such areas must be escorted by a tour guide who is currently trained as a radiation worker at Fermilab and is otherwise qualified to enter such areas. Tours to such areas shall be approved by the division/section head responsible for the area. Members of tours shall be provided an orientation commensurate with the hazards presented in the area and assigned dosimetry in accordance with Article 941 of the Fermilab Radiological Control Manual, which give the details of the Laboratory policy on such visits.
