Intended Audience:

Nuclear/hazardous material facility operations and technical personnel and crew supervision

 

Terminal Objective:

Participants will be able to demonstrate a working knowledge of the engineering and administrative strategies that ensure safe and effective decontamination, dismantlement, deactivation and decommissioning operations within nuclear/hazardous material facilities.

 

Course Description:

The first day of this course discusses the stages of the D4 process, hazard characteristics, methods of biological exposure to the hazards, the hierarchy of controls for hazard mitigation, the types and use of Personal Protective Equipment, radiological practices, medical surveillance requirements, and the appropriate notifications for concerns with work place hazards.

 

The second day describes the hazards and associated controls for electrical, mechanical, hydraulic/pneumatic, pressurized, and thermodynamic systems in addition to areas managed for particulate, fire, confined space, elevated work, radiological, and chemical hazards.

 

The last day discusses the Integrated Safety Management System, work control documentation, the Activity Hazard Analysis process, pre-job briefs and walk downs, decontamination techniques, waste minimization and segregation, abnormal condition response and a practical demonstration on sleeved containment construction.
