T.O. 33B-1-1compliance with current regulations. This section is based in part on recommendations contained inNational Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) (formerly National Bureau of Standards)Handbook 114, General safety Standard for Installations Using Non-Medical X-ray and SealedGamma Source, Energies up to 10 MeV, and in National Council on Radiation Protection andMeasurement (NCRP) Report No. 116, Limitation of Exposure to Ionizing Radiation, and Report No.51, Radiation Protection Design Guidelines for 0.1-100 MeV Particle Accelerator Facilities. Exposurelimits specified herein and in AR 40-14 are derived from those specified in federal regulations,particularly Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, (10 CFR) Part 20. In the event of conf lict, the morerestrictive limits apply; thus, as used herein, limits/standards specified in AR 40-14 should beinterpreted to read ‘‘standards specified in AR 40-14 or applicable federal regulations’’.6.9.1Responsibilities(AirForce/Navy).6.9.1.1BaseRadiationSafetyOfficer.a.The Base Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) is responsible for initiation, supervision and execution of thebase radiation protection program. This program provides for routine health physics surveillance ofall operations involving the use of ionizing radiation to insure safe practices. Consultant services ofqualified individuals are available at the following locations to assist the Base RSO with the radiationprotection program: (1) CONUS:AFIERA/SDRH2402 E.
