EPA/AR RIN: 2060-AO31 Publication ID: Fall 2011 
Title: Amendment of Definitions for National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Pollutants for Radionuclides 
Abstract: Subparts H and I of 40 CFR part 61 establish standards under the Clean Air Act for emissions of radionuclides other than radon from Department of Energy (DOE) and other non-DOE federal facilities. The current definition of "effective dose equivalent" refers to a method of calculation in International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) publication no. 26. Removing this reference will prevent confusion if EPA incorporates newer ICRP methods for calculating effective dose equivalent in its compliance models.
