Q. Radiation and Laser Safety

The UNH Radiation Safety Committee (RSC) is the governing body for all aspects of radiation protection within UNH, including all affiliated research, clinical, instructional and service units utilizing radiation sources and lasers in facilities owned or controlled by UNH. The RSC ensures that all possession, use and disposition of radiation sources by personnel at UNH complies with pertinent federal and state regulations and with the specific conditions of licenses issued to the University, and that all concomitant radiation exposures are maintained As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA).

PIs/PDs are responsible for handling radiation sources and lasers in accordance with all regulations and UNH policy.

Web-based Training

The UNH Office of Environmental Health and Safety (OEHS) has developed Web-based training for radiation safety on UNH Blackboard. Personnel interested in these programs must complete the online training modules.
