Site
Characterization
In many cases, the exact nature and extent of
radiological contamination at a site is not
known. It then becomes necessary to "go
out and look" at the site with specialized
radiation detection equipment to determine what
radioactive material is present, its precise
location on a site, and the extent of any contamination.
The staff of Auxier & Associates (A&A)
has characterized sites in 40 states, the District
of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Some of the radionuclides
found in these characterizations included:
• Isotopes from the uranium,
thorium, and actinide decay chains
(e.g. U-234,
U-235, U-238, Th-230, Th-232, Ra-226, Ra-228,
and Po-210)
• Fission products like Ce-137,
Sr-90, and Tc-99
• Transuranics such as Np-237,
Pu-238, and Pu-239
We have extensive experience developing radiological
survey strategies, plans, and protocols. We
routinely conduct radiological surveys for all
phases of remediation and license termination.
Our regulatory experience in this area spans
all relevant federal agencies and most state
radiological agencies. Further, A&A is thoroughly
familiar with the MARSSIM process of planning
and implementation.
