Abstract:A critical review of the hazards associated with operation of the Isotopes Alpha Handling Facility is presented. The physical facilities, operations, and operating procedures for the plant are de scribed. Analyses were made of the operational hazards and it is shown that the primary and secondary containment features of the facility are adequate to contain the radioactive contamination to the confines of the facility.
