Radiation Safety Committee

The Radiation Safety Committee (RSC) is responsible for reviewing protocols that involve radioactive material (RAM) at GW. The committee is made up of various authorized users and administrative personnel who meet quarterly. The RSC is regulated by our license application to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), which is available to any member of the RSC. Contact us if you would like to join the RSC.
