Radioactive Material Use Training and Experience

Authorized User

Provide a description of past Radiation Safety Training attended. If training was not part of WHOI EH&S Department Training, documentation from the Radiation Safety Officer at the facility the training was conducted is required. Indicate all previous experiences you have had with the use of radioactive material. Include isotopes used, quantities and activities, a brief description of protocols and procedures used, any other information you feel might assist the Radiation Safety Committee in evaluating your request.

Authorized User Training & Experience(Required)

Radiation Workers

Provide the names of all radiation workers who will be using radioactive materials under this authorization. For each radiation worker, include Radiation Safety Training and work related experience. If training was not part of WHOI EH&S Department Training, documentation from the Radiation Safety Officer at the facility the training was conducted is required. New radiation workers must also complete and submit a Dosimetry Request Form.

Radiation Workers Details(Required)

Provide Names, Radiation Safety Trainings, work related experience for each worker. If there are no workers, and this is an Authorization for one person, please indicate below.
