- W2008893138 abstract "Abstract Prior to 1959 there was no official agency within the Executive Branch of the United States Government assigned the responsibility for the formulation of radiation protection standards or guidance for all Federal agencies. Each agency was free to formulate whatever standards it deemed appropriate within the bounds of its radiation protection responsibilities. Consequently, the programs and responsibilities of many agencies and departments tended to impinge and overlap. Radiation protection regulations and practices generally were based on the recommendations of the National Committee (now Council) on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP). Although the NCRP was a leading authority in this field and was in part sponsored by the U.S. National Bureau of Standards, it was not an official agency of the government. At the direction of the President of the United States, a study was carried out on the radiation protection activities within the Federal Government. As a result it was decided that basic radiation protection standards and guidance involved health, economic, social and ethical considerations of such a nature that the person or persons making the decision represented by that guidance should be publicly accountable. Consideration was given to vesting that function in one of the several agencies with radiation protection responsibilities. However, none was found with the necessary breadth of responsibility or jurisdiction to establish such policies for the entire Federal Government. Consequently, the President approved the recommendation that he be advised by a Federal Radiation Council on radiation matters directly or indirectly affecting health, including guidance for Federal agencies in the establishment and execution of programs of cooperation with the individual states comprising the nation. The author describes some of the problems and some of the benefits that have developed from the creation of the Federal Radiation Council which serves as a forum where all considerations can be brought together to establish and recommend to the President a national policy on radiation protection." @default.
