Notice of Meetings, Open to the Public, of the Multi-Agency 
Radiation Site Investigation Manual Development Working Group

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency, lead.

ACTION: Meetings open to the public.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing that 
the Department of Defense, Department of Energy, Environmental 
Protection Agency, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission are meeting to 
develop joint Federal guidance for standardized and consistent 
approaches to accomplish structural and environmental radiation 
surveys. Relevant information will be provided to the group by other 
persons present. The guidance is being developed as a draft document, 
entitled the ``Multi-Agency Radiation Site Investigation Manual 
(MARSIM)'', and it is anticipated that the final product will be a 
consensus document each agency can agree upon and eventually adopt. 
Meetings of the group are open to the public on a first come, space 
available basis with advance registration. During the next meeting, 
representatives of the agencies will discuss: survey planning and 
design; implications of minimum detectable activity; application of 
statistics; and the schedule of future meetings.

March 28, 1995 from 9:00 am until about 3:00 pm. The meeting will be
