    Properties

    dcfParameterUncertaintyCharacterisation?: string

    Characterisation of the uncertainty distribution of DCF parameters. Required by RCDO-C2.

    "Log-normal distributions were assumed for DCF parameter uncertainties based on literature."
    

    RCDO-C2

    dcfSource: string

    The recognized source(s) used for Dose Conversion Factors (DCFs). Required by RCDO-A2.

    "ICRP Publication 72", "Federal Guidance Report No. 11"
    

    RCDO-A3

    dcfUncertainty: {
        alternatives: string[];
        assumptions: string[];
        sources: string[];
    }

    Sources of model uncertainty, related assumptions, and reasonable alternatives for DCFs. Required by RCDO-A10.

    RCDO-A10: Describes how organ doses are calculated and aggregated to determine effective dose or other relevant dose metrics.

    doseAggregationMethod?: string

    Describes how organ doses are calculated and aggregated to determine effective dose or other relevant dose metrics.

    "Organ doses were calculated for key organs, and effective dose was determined using ICRP Publication 103 weighting factors."
    

    RCDO-A10

    doseIntegrationPeriods?: string[]

    Specifies the time periods over which doses are integrated.

    ["7-day thyroid dose", "50-year committed effective dose"]
    

    RCDO-C1

    dosimetryModelsUsed?: string

    The dosimetry models used in the analysis.

    "Dose calculations were performed using the EPA Federal Guidance Report No. 11 and 12 methodologies."
    

    HLR-RCDO-B

    exposurePathways: string[]

    Identified exposure pathways considered in the analysis. Required by RCDO-A1.

    ["Inhalation", "Ground Shine", "Cloud Submersion"]
    

    RCDO-A1

    occupancyConsiderations?: string

    Considerations for occupancy factors appropriate for receptor locations and activities. Relevant to RCDO-A3.

    "Occupancy factors were assumed to be 1 for all receptors for simplicity." | "Time-dependent occupancy factors were used for different land use types."
    
    radionuclideDecayConsideration?: string

    Describes how the dosimetry analysis accounts for the physical and radiological decay of radionuclides.

    "Radionuclide decay was accounted for during atmospheric transport and dose calculations using half-life data."
    

    HLR-RCDO-C

    receptorTypes?: string[]

    Identifies the age groups or receptor types for which doses are calculated.

    ["Adult", "Teenager", "Child (1 year)", "Infant (3 months)"]
    

    RCDO-A2

    shieldingConsiderations?: string

    Considerations for shielding factors appropriate for receptor locations and activities. Relevant to RCDO-A3.

    "Shielding factors for residential areas were based on typical building attenuation." | "No shielding factors were applied for conservative estimates."
