When Benton County, Washington, wanted to establish a baseline of noise exposure experienced by its Sheriff’s Department employees, it asked NV5 to perform noise monitoring for Benton County Sheriff Deputies to evaluate activities such as traffic stops, domestic calls, and other types of work the deputies may encounter in the[...]
Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) relied on NV5 to review and analyze its radiation protection program; prepare, conduct, and document effectiveness reviews of the program; and prepare, conduct, and document management self-assessments. We then prepared a revised radiation protection program for Argonne in compliance with implementing regulations. We developed the radiological[...]
NV5 was asked to prepare a decommissioning cost estimate for a non-power nuclear reactor used for student research purposes as well as for local industrial applications. Although the school was not planning to decommission its reactor, periodic cost estimates are required by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission to ensure research[...]
NV5 health physicists support U.S. Department of Energy prime contractors and the National Laboratories in ensuring radiation worker safety. Specifically, we conduct triennial assessments in compliance with the requirements of 10 CFR 835, “Occupational Radiation Protection Program.” We also perform independent assessments (also called “management assessments”) to help Radiological Control[...]
The 618-10 Burial Ground at the U.S. Department of Energy Hanford Site was considered to be the most radioactive burial ground in the DOE Complex, with 12 burial trenches consisting of 2,201 drums, 94 vertical pipe units, and contaminated soil and debris. NV5 has provided full time support to the[...]
An NV5 certified industrial hygienist provided safety oversight during the building of a new irrigation siphon as part of the expansion of the Grand Coulee/Columbia Basin Project. This portion of the expansion project conveys groundwater to landowners in the East Columbia Basin Irrigation District and also provides the water source[...]
NV5 provided several Certified Industrial Hygienists to support Washington River Protection Solutions, the U.S. Department of Energy’s prime contractor responsible for managing 56 million gallons of radioactive and chemical waste stored in 177 underground tanks (“Tank Farms”) at the Hanford Site. Specifically, we supported the Tank Farms Industrial Hygiene Programs[...]
When the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) raised questions about the possible presence of naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) at an oil field in the Bakersfield area, Ahtna Facility Services sought the support of NV5. Specifically, NV5 evaluated reports containing NORM survey results for human health risk posed[...]
NV5 served as Medical Radiation Safety Officer at a large university hospital in Washington, DC. The Medical Radiation Safety Officer helps ensure the safety of the hospital’s workers and patients. In this role, we conducted annual radiation safety program audits, provided consulting support to the radiation safety program, prepared license[...]
To ensure compliance with environmental, health, and safety guidelines, an agricultural production facility in the northwestern United States has relied on NV5 to provide annual ambient air and noise monitoring services since 2013. Each year, NV5 sets up and collects 24-hour samples for sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter (PM)-10,[...]
