Developed techniques for calculation of radiation doses from the operation of uranium mines and mills; these techniques were used by US-NRC for licensing of the operations. The techniques were adopted by uranium industry (U.S., Canada, Australia) and consulting companies to the United States Government.

Assisted U.S. NRC in licensing of uranium mines and mills by predicting radiation doses and risks; these activities were incorporated in the following reports:

1. Environmental Statement, Bear Creek Project," June 1979 (NUREG—0129).

2. "Environmental Statement, Lucky Mc Gas Hills Uranium Mill," 1977 (NUREG—0357.

3. "Environmental Statement, Gas Hills Uranium Mill union Carbide" 1979 (NUREG—0411).

4. "Environmental Statement, Atlas Uranium Mill, Moab, Utah," 1978, (NUREG-0241)

5. "Environmental Statement, Morton Ranch, 1978 (NUREG—0439)

6. "Environmental Statement, Western Nuclear Jeffrey City, Wyoming," 1979 (NUREG—045l).

7. "Environmental Statement, Sweetwater Uranium Project," 1977 (NUREG—0403).

Prepared radiological and environmental analyses in Generic Evaluation of Uranium Milling in the United States.(NUREG— 0706) 1980.
