Health Physics Positions Based on 10 CFR Part 20
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission
Question 20: Pertaining to Question 19, will 10 CFR 50
Appendix I and Technical Specifications have to be modified
to reflect a total effective dose equivalent (TEDE)?
Answer: Appendix I, and the corresponding Technical
Specifications, will not have to be modified as a result of
the revised Part 20; however, the staff is considering
whether Appendix I design objectives need to be recast as
effective dose equivalent. (References: 10 CFR 50
Appendix I, Reactor Technical Specifications)
