Survey and Assessment of Materials and
Equipment (MARSAME) Manual,’’ of
December 2006.
Background: The EPA SAB Radiation
Advisory Committee (RAC), augmented
with additional experts, reviewed the
‘‘Multi-Agency Radiation Survey and
Assessment of Materials and Equipment
(MARSAME) Manual,’’ Draft Report for
Comment, December 2006. A multiagency work group with participation
by staff from the U.S. Department of
Energy, U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission, U.S. Department of
Defense and U.S. EPA prepared the
manual. The multi-agency work group
has been active since 1995 and prepares
radiological guidance documents. The
draft MARSAME manual complements
MARSSIM (a surficial soils radiation
survey manual) by providing a process
for surveying potentially radioactive
material and equipment (M&E). It
provides guidance to determine whether
M&E are sufficiently free of
radionuclide contamination to be
admitted to or removed from a site.

premanufacture notice (PMN) or an
application for a test marketing
exemption (TME), and to publish

of commencement to manufacture those
chemicals. This status report, which
covers the period from March 24, 2008
through April 11, 2008, consists of the
PMNs pending or expired, and the
notices of commencement to
manufacture a new chemical that the
Agency has received under TSCA
section 5 during this time period.
