Committee on Interagency Radiation Research and Policy Coordination Second Annual Report

July 1, 1985 to June 30, 1986

I. Introduction

This is the second annual report of the Com- mittee on Interagency Radiation Research and Policy Coordination (CIRRPC). CIRRPC was es- tablished on April 9, 1984, to replace the Com- mittee on Interagency Radiation Policy and was assigned responsibilities of the former Interagen- cy Radiation Research Committee and former Radiation Policy Council. CIRRPC is chartered under the Federal Coordinating Council for Science, Engineering and Technology (FCCSET) and reports to the Office of Science and Tech- nology Policy (OSTP), Executive Office of the President. Its overall charge is to coordinate radi- ation matters between agencies, evaluate radia- tion research, and provide advice on the formulation of radiation policy.

11. Summary

During CIRRPC’s second year, the member agencies have called upon this interagency resource to assist in coordinating science and policy issues and to provide a vehicle to accom- plish multiagency tasks.

Radiation Issues The effort initiated in CIRRPC’s first year to

define those radiation issues of sufficient impor- tance and scope to require interagency attention resulted in the CIRRPC report entitled “Report on Identification of Federal Radiation Issues,” dat- ed March 21, 1986, and transmitted to FCCSET.

Radon During the past year, increased public atten-

tion was drawn to the potential health hazards

Subcabinet and senior policy level represen- tatives and senior scientists from member agen- cies constitute CIRRPC and its scientific component, designated as the Science Panel. There are 18 CIRRPC member agencies at this time, with 14 agencies having members on the Science Panel. Figures I and 2 provide CIRRPC’s organizational and reporting structure. A listing of member agencies and their representatives is provided in the Appendix. Technical assistance for the operation of CIRRPC is provided by Oak Ridge Associated Universites (ORAU). The ORAU/CIRRPC organization is shown in Figure 3 .

associated with elevated levels of naturally oc- curring radioactive radon gas in indoor air. A report which identifies the major technical issues concerning indoor radon has been completed and submitted to CIRRPC for publication.

In May 1986, six federal agencies having programmatic interest in indoor radon participat- ed in a joint briefing for Dr. John P. McTague, the Acting Director of the Office of Science and Tech- nology Policy, and CIRRPC’s policy members. The briefing served to enhance overall awareness of the importance of the indoor radon issue and to coordinate activities at the federal level.

International Activities Member agencies of CIRRPC are consider-

ing what role the Committee might play in as- suring that U. s. participation in international

organizations is consistent with U.S. radiation policy and in encouraging cooperation in research and information exchange. As an initial step in obtaining their objective, the CIRRPC member agencies provided information on points of contact within the agency having liaison roles on radiation matters with international organi- zations, staff attendance at international meetings on radiation matters, and a listing of international organizations which routinely invite agency representatives to participate in such meetings. An initial compilation was contained in the report distributed to the membership in June 1986.

Occupational Exposure Guidance At the request of OSTP and the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) the draft “Radi- ation Protection Guidance to Federal Agencies for Occupational Exposure” was distributed to CIRRPC member agencies for review. If ap- proved, this document would replace the present Federal guidance published in 1960. CIRRPC provided a summary of the comments for OSTP’s response to EPA.

BEIR V In May, CIRRPC approved funding of the Na-

tional Academy of Sciences/National Research Council (NAS/NRC) study of “Effects on Popula- tions of Exposures to Low Levels of Ionizing Radi- ation: 1988” (BEIR V). This thirty-month study will be a comprehensive review of findings on the biological effects of ionizing radiation.

Legislative Monitoring In January 1986, at the request of the Ex-

ecutive Committee, the ORAU/CIRRPC office be- gan providing a monthly legislative digest of Congressional activities related to radiation mat- ters. These summaries are in each Quarterly Report and distributed to the membership. The legislation reported on to date were the fol- lowing:

PL 99-24 Low-level Radioactive Waste Policy Act of 1985 H.R. 3653 Extension of the Price- Anderson Act H.R. 696 Federal Food Irradiation De- velopment and Control Act of 1985 PL 99-239 Contract of Free Association Between the United States and Govern- ments of Marshall Islands and Federal States of Micronesia H.R. 1287 Radiation Research Reorgani- zation Act of 1985 Radon Legislation (H.R. 3423, H.R. 3172, S. 1546 and S. 1593)

Briefings and Meetings Briefings on C I W C activities were present-

ed to the White House Science Council on March 21, 1986 and to a subcommittee of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards on January 17, 1986.

In preparation for his meeting in August 1986 at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), in Vienna, Ambassador-at-Large Richard Kennedy, Department of State, requested and received a briefing on CIRRPC activities and pos- sible assistance in coordination of U.S. Govern- ment response to any request from the IAEA in connection with the reactor accident at Cher- nobyl in the Soviet Union.

Personnel Changes The composition of the Executive Commit-

tee changed during the past year with the selec- tion of Mr. Craig Potter, Assistant Administrator for Air and Radiation, Environmental Protection Agency, as Vice Chair of CIRRPC to succeed Mr. Joseph Cannon. In the interim, Mr. Charles Elkins, also of EPA, had served in an acting ca- pacity as Vice Chair. Mr. Robert Brittigan, General Counsel of the Defense Nuclear Agency, Depart- ment of Defense, succeeded Mr. Bryan Siebert, Department of Energy, as the Executive Secretary of CIRRPC.

111. Operations The Committee on Interagency Radiation

Research and Policy Coordination in its second year of operation has continued to provide an effective mechanism to coalesce policy and scien- tific guidance to federal agencies on national is- sues of major concern.

Federal Radiation Policy, Regulations and Standards

Radiation Protection Guidance On February 12, 1986, EPA‘s Office of Air

and Radiation asked OSTP for review and com- ments on the draft document entitled “Radiation Protection Guidance to Federal Agencies for Oc- cupational Exposure.” This document contains the recommendations of the Administrator of EPA to the President. If approved by the President, this guidance “would replace those portions of previous Federal guidance (2 5 FR4402) approved by President Eisenhower on May 13, 1960, that apply to the protection of workers exposed to ionizing radiation.” OSTP, with the concurrence of OMB, asked the CIRRPC to coordinate a review and concurrence on the proposed guidance with its member agencies. This provid- ed an opportunity for review by some federal agencies which had not previously had an op- portunity to do so. The comments were collat- ed and summarized by the CIRRPC Secretariat for OSTP’s response to EPA. The transmittal letter from OSTP to EPA noted that OSTP was “pleased to report that, in general, the federal agencies are highly supportive of the draft guidance and con- cur in the recommendations being forwarded to the President for his approval and signature.”

ICRP Publication 26 Review and Implemen- tation

The Subpanel on Scientific Basis for Radia- tion Protection Standards undertook an exami- nation of the International Commission on Radiological Protection’s (ICRP) Publication 26 on Radiation Protection to identify those issues andlor recommendations that might warrant evaluation of its scientific basis. A number of is- sues were so identified and from these, four were

selected for review. These were: the recommen- dation to increase the “quality factor” (Q) for neutrons by a factor of 2; modeling of the dose/response relationship; the concept of col- lective dose in assessing population health im- pacts; and accuracy requirements in radiation protection measurements (a non-ICRP 26 issue).

The initial topic addressed was the recom- mended change in Q for neutrons by an increase of a factor of 2. The Subpanel concluded that the available scientific evidence provided in support of the change is controvertible and that because, in practice, conservative measurements and ex- posure methods are used, a change at this time would not significantly improve protection. Results of ongoing and planned research will im- prove the data base available for future recon- sideration of this issue. The subpanel’s report has been completed and is under consideration by the Science Panel.

Assessment of Radiation Exposure to the U.S. Population

In response to direction from CIRRPC, ORAU contracted with the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) to publish an NCRP report assessing the radia- tion exposure of the U.S population from both natural and rnanrnade sources. This report of the NCRP will summarize the findings of a number of NCRP reports being prepared and, when pub- lished, will represent the most comprehensive as- sessment made to date. Publication is expected in late 1986.

NAS’ BEIR V Report At the direction of CIRRPC, ORAU has con-

tracted with the National Academy of Sciences, National Research Council to conduct a compre- hensive review and analysis of our knowledge on the biological effects of ionizing radiation and to publish a detailed report summarizing these find- ings. When completed, the BEIR V report will update and extend the 1980 BEIR I11 report by including among its new findings those follow- ing reassessment of the dosimetry for the sur- vivors of the atomic weapons detonated during World War I1 and a summary of findings in the

3

BEIR IV report on the effects of internally deposited alpha-emitting radionuclides now be- ing completed. The findings reported are expect- ed to be in a form suitable for use in making health risk assessments, assigning share values for radiation as a causative disease agent, and for- mulating radiation exposure control decisions. Like previous BEIR reports, it is expected that the BEIR V report will be both an important scien- tific document used in developing U.S. policy on radiation protection and a much referenced so- cial document used, for example, in the U.S. court system. The report is expected to be com- pleted by the end of 1988.

Radiation Fact Sheets A task force has been initiated to develop a

compendium of fact sheets containing legal and technical information on Federal radiation pro- tection standards and guides, particularly those that protect the public. The compendium will be a reference document that can be used by CIRRPC to consider any further actions neces- sary to enhance coordination of radiation pro- tection within the Federal government. The perceived lack of such coordination has been cit- ed by a number of CIRRPC member agencies.

Radiation Compensation Policy and Science Subpanels are engaged in

activities related to the “Report of the National Institutes of Health Ad Hoc Working Group to Develop Radioepidemiological Tables’’ and a re- quest to CIRRPC from the Veterans Administra- tion (VA) regarding application of the tables in adjudicating veterans’ claims. The Science Sub- panel is addressing conditions and associated un- certainties for which the tables may be useful, including use as a screening method based upon probabilities. A Policy Subpanel on the Radi- oepidemiological Tables is considering impacts that might occur on various sectors of society if the tables were adopted. Final reports are expect- ed to be available in 1987.

Radon

Radon Protection and Health Effects The CIRRPC Science Subpanel on Radon

Protection and Health Effects identified five im- portant issues on indoor radon that required at- tention. The issues concerned (1) the adequacy of health risk estimates due to indoor radon ex- posure; (2) the basis for standards and guidance for remedial actions; (3) the ability to predict high indoor radon levels; (4) the extent to which U.S. population exposures are known; and ( 5 ) guid- ance on remedial and mitigation measures. A Science Panel Report with recommendations was forwarded to CIRRPC for approval in June, 1986.

EPA Pamphlets on Radon In May of 1986 the Environmental Protec-

tion Agency (EPA) asked CIRRPC members for comments on two draft pamphlets (“A Citizen’s Guide to Radon” and “Radon Reduction Methods”), intended for public distribution, on the subject of indoor radon. A review of the major comments submitted to EPA was conduct- ed by the CIRRPC Radon Subpanel and discussed with the Science Panel and forwarded to CIRRPC members for information. EPA was informed of the Subpanel’s views and concerns.

Radon Briefing On May 8, 1986, at the Office of Science and

Technology Policy (OSTP), a joint briefing was conducted for the President’s Acting Policy Science Advisor John P. McTague and CIRRPC members on programs related to indoor radon. The Environmental Protection Agency and the Departments of Commerce, Energy, Health and Human Services, Housing and Urban Develop- ment, and Interior presented information on their programs. The areas of mutual interest as well as opportunities for addressing matters of additional concern were brought to light. The information exchange enhanced the potential for coordina- tion and cooperation among the ongoing pro- grams. Additional information on present and future indoor radon funding for each agency was requested by OSTP.

Non-Ionizing Radiation The Science Subpanel on Research Agenda

for Radiofrequency Health Effects, formed to respond to a request from EPA, prepared a draft report on research needs for health effects due

4

to non-ionizing radiation. The draft report fo- cuses on research needs related to non-thermal effects. A final report will be prepared on the ba- sis of the Science Panel comments.

High-LET Radiation The charter of the Science Subpanel on

High-LET Radiation was approved by the Science Panel on December 9, 1985. Responsibilities of this Subpanel include: maintaining an awareness of relevant review and assessment activities be- ing carried out by national and international or- ganizations addressing high-LET radiation research and/or protection issues; serving as an information focus and coordination point for Federal agencies with respect to high-LET research activities; identifying high-LET research needs; and reviewing proposed agency research agendas related to high-LET radiation, as request- ed by the CIRRPC.

In January the Subpanel was asked to con- duct a review of the “Multiagency Research Plan for Resolving Problems Associated with Low Lev- el Exposure to Neutrons,” submitted to CIRRPC by the Department of Energy (DOE). Following its initial overview of the plan, the Subpanel re- quested additional information from DOE in or- der to ensure that the Subpanel’s review would be responsive to DOE’S request. The proposed program is to be considered in the context of all radiobiological programs funded by Federal agen- cies addressing the biological effectiveness of neutrons.

In a related action, the Subpanel on the Scientific Basis for Radiation Protection Standards has been addressing the neutron quality factor issue (see above discussion under Federal Radia- tion Policy, Regulation and Standards). Future plans of this Subpanel include examination of the basic science upon which the neutron quality fac- tor is based. Such a review could provide the necessary background data for the Subpanel on High-LET Radiation’s efforts to assess future research needs related to the relative biological effectiveness of neutrons.

Radiation Measurements, Records and Control

The Policy Subpanel on Metrication of Radi- ation Units continued to address the problems and advantages associated with the use of inter- national radiation units. Both national needs and those of individual agencies are being consid- ered. The draft report is still under subpanel review.

Public Awareness During the identification of significant radi-

ation issues by CIRRPC an issue frequently raised was that of public understanding of radiation health effects and policy.

In response to the indicated agency concerns over the public perception of radiation matters, a concept paper was circulated in May, 1986 for member agencies’ review.

In response to comments received, the Ex- ecutive Committee has directed that several mem- ber agency representatives be contacted to determine what, if any, public awareness efforts are currently underway in the area of radiation health effects and what is their agency policy on pursuing this educational activity. Based on the results of this sample of agency response a deci- sion will be made concerning an extended fact finding activity.

Research Coordination The recommendations of the Ad Hoc Sub-

panel on How To Address the Radiation Research Agenda were adopted by the Science Panel at its September 16, 1985 meeting. These recommen- dations were: 1) be alert to agency reviews and act on agency requests concerning research agen- das; 2) act on agency requests to critique specif- ic radiation research proposals; and 3) prepare periodic summary of Federal radiation research. In response to the third recommendation, the Science Panel directed preparation of an over- view of radiation research on a comparative FY

5

1981 and FY 1985 basis. The FY 1981 data and the research categories were extracted from the November, 1982 draft report of the Interagency Radiation Research Committee’s Subcommittee on Radiation Research Strategy Implementation. The FY 1985 data from DOE and NIH were categorized according to the needs identified in the Strategy Report and reviewed for complete- ness of the data base. A final report is scheduled for early 1987.

International Activities In order to form a base for a possible

CIRRPC role in international radiation policy is- sues, a report, “CIRRPC Member Agency Partic-

ipation in International Radiation Activities,” was completed in June, 1986. The report contains names of agency personnel assigned liaison roles to international organizations and a listing of in- ternational meetings to which member agencies have been invited. This report will be updated as needed to reflect agency changes in person- nel and responsibilities.
