Installation recreation areas Standing operating procedures will be developed, posted, and enforced to ensure public and military personnel safety at all recreational facilities and areas (that is, camping, hunting, and picnic areas; baseball; multirecreational sport facilities; equestrian center; automotive shops; arts and craft centers; and so forth). The SOP will include all rules pertaining to the facility, training required, emergency reporting, and any other pertinent information necessary to maintain a safe and healthful environment. 6–9.
Public activities on military installations Using military installations for public activities introduces a new set of risks that must be identified and either controlled or eliminated. a. Composite risk management will be used to identify all hazards and risks associated with setting up the event, operation of the event, and clean up following the event. b. An emergency response plan will be developed to cover medical and other emergencies identified by the CRM process. 6–10. Volunteer safety Volunteers are valuable assets which provide beneficial human resources to the installation. Guidelines for volunteers are addressed in DA Pam 385–10. 6–11. Sporting events a.
Installations will ensure development and publishing of safety information for all sporting activities offered through the installation facility. b. Activities will submit safety requirements to installation safety for approval and dissemination for all supported activities. Chapter 7 Radiation Safety Management 7–1. Introduction a. This chapter prescribes DA safety policy and processes for the Army radiation safety function. This chapter applies to all sources of radiation, both ionizing and nonionizing. b. DA Pam 385–24 contains technical requirements for developing management and control processes for operations involving sources of radiation. Its implementation is mandatory. 7–2.
Policy a. Army organizations shall develop management and quality control processes to identify, mitigate, and control hazardous radiation fields and other radiation hazards associated with Army activities and equipment by engineering design, administrative controls, or protective equipment (in that order). Organizations will also ensure that exposure to ionizing radiation is kept as low as reasonably achievable. b. Radiation sources and radiation producing devices shall comply with all Army, DOD, Federal, and applicable State regulations and requirements. c.
Organizations will adopt no practice and conduct no operation involving planned exposure of personnel to radiation in excess of the applicable exposure standards. This does not preclude the use of Operational Exposure Guidance during deployment. d. Although a commander or director may assign the radiation safety functions of the RSO or laser safety officer anywhere in their organization (that is, safety office, logistics, TSG’s office, commander’s staff, and so forth), the RSO and laser safety officer shall have direct access to the commander or director for radiation safety purposes. e.
Organizations involved in RDT&E, and in acquisition of equipment (including COTS equipment) that emits radiation or contains radioactive material will develop management and quality control processes to— (1) Identify hazards and controls and incorporate protection measures or identify operational restrictions before fielding. (2) Process residual risks for acceptance per AR 70–1 before fielding materiel. (3) Ensure that radiological concerns are addressed in the fielding, training, and life cycle management of commodi- ties containing radioactive material or that produce radiation. 42 AR 385–10 • 23 August 2007
