SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The MARSSIM provides information on
planning, conducting, evaluating, and documenting environmental
radiological surveys of surface soils and building surfaces for
demonstrating compliance with regulations. The following corrections,
dated June 2001, were made to Revision 1 of the MARSSIM by the multi-
agency MARSSIM workgroup. The June 2001 corrected pages are also
available on the Internet at http://www.epa.gov/radiation/marssim.
1. On page v of the Table of Contents, the August 2000 date was
removed from the header of the Errata and Addenda page to facilitate
incorporation of future modifications. Pages xi, xii, and xv were
corrected to correspond to the correct titles for Appendix C, Section
.11 and Table H-3 respectively. Page xxviii was also updated to include
these June 2001 corrections to the list of Errata and Addenda.
2. On page xxiii, the Abbreviations page, the abbreviation DARA
(Department of the Army Radioactive
[[Page 34728]]
Material Authorization) was updated to ARA (Army Radiation
Authorization). Also, on page C-19, the list of Army Regulations was
updated by deleting AR 40-14 and AR 385-11 and adding AR 11-9 (The Army
Radiation Safety Program).
3. On page Roadmap-8, the first bullet included an equation without
an equal sign. The equation was corrected to include the equal sign.
4. On page 4-24, the second line of the second paragraph under
Section 4.8.3.2 was missing a modifier. The word ``that'' was added to
clarify the meaning of the sentence.
5. On page 5-12, the second line of the second paragraph under
Section 5.3.3.3 included a typographical error. A space was added
between ``samples'' and ``of.''
6. On page 6-16, the second line of the last paragraph under
Section 6.5.1.3 was edited for clarification. The word ``fluence'' was
added following ``total particle.''
7. On page 6-30, the Greek letter epsilon character in equations 6-
3 and 6-4 printed incorrectly. This misprint was corrected.
8. On page 6-37, the example data were modified to reflect the
August 2000 Errata and Addenda correction of the conversion factor for
converting Bq/m\2\ to dpm/100 cm\2\.
9. On page 8-19, the example data were modified to reflect the
August 2000 Errata and Addenda correction of the conversion factor for
converting Bq/m\2\ to dpm/100 cm\2\.
10. On page 8-23, text was added to the first and third paragraphs
to clarify the definition and use of the Greek letter delta (lower case
delta) in equation 8-2 on that page.
11. On page 8-23, the Greek letter delta (lower case delta)
character in equation 8-2 printed incorrectly. The misprint was
