This one day advanced level course is designed for On-Scene Coordinators, Remedial Project Managers, and other supervisory environmental professionals who may be involved in the investigation, assessment, and evaluation of radiologically contaminated sites. This course is intended to provide training on EPA guidance to experienced environmental professionals who may be responsible for regulatory compliance to protect site workers and the general public, and who may have to assess and evaluate site radiological conditions. The EPA's radiation response capabilities will also be discussed. 

• Identify regulations, consensus standards, and guidance that pertain to EPA personnel engaged in radiological fieldwork.
• Discuss contamination control and methods for simple radioactive decontamination.
• Identify information needed for the decision-making process that is required under the MARSSIM guidance at sites with radioactive contamination of surface soils and building surfaces.
