EXPIRES: MM/DD/YYYY

Estimated burden per response to comply with this mandatory collection request: 20 minutes. This information
is used to ensure that doses to individual do not exceed regulatory limits. This information is required to
record/annually report individual occupational exposure to radiation to ensure that the exposure does not
exceed regulatory limits. Send comments regarding burden estimate to the Information Services Branch (T-5
F53), U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20555-0001, or by internet e-mail to
[email protected], and to the Desk Officer, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs,

INSTRUCTIONS AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION PERTINENT TO THE
COMPLETION OF NRC FORM 5
(All doses should be stated in rems)
1.

Type or print the full name of the monitored
individual in the order of last name (include
"Jr," "Sr," "III," etc.), first name, middle initial (if
applicable).

2.

Enter the individual's identification number,
including punctuation. This number should be
the 9-digit social security number if at all
possible. If the individual has no social
security number, enter the number from
another official identification such as a
passport or work permit.

3.

Enter the code for the type of identification
used as shown below:
CODE ID TYPE
SSN U.S. Social Security Number
PPN Passport Number
CSI
Canadian Social Insurance Number
WPN Work Permit Number
PADS PADS Identification Number
OTH Other

4.

Check the box that denotes the sex of the
individual being monitored.

5.

Enter the date of birth of the individual being
monitored in the format MM/DD/YYYY.

6.

Enter the monitoring period for which this
report is filed. The format should be
MM/DD/YYYY - MM/DD/YYYY.

7.

Enter the name of the licensee.

8.

Enter the NRC license number or numbers.

9A. Place an "X" in Record, Estimate, or No
Record. Choose "Record" if the dose data
listed represent a final determination of the
dose received to the best of the licensee's
knowledge. Choose "Estimate" only if the
listed dose data are preliminary and will be
superseded by a final determination resulting
in a subsequent report. An example of such
an instance would be dose data based on
self-reading dosimeter results and the licensee
intends to assign the record dose on the basis
of TLD results that are not yet available.
9B. Place an "X" in either Routine or PSE.
Choose "Routine" if the data represent the
results of monitoring for routine exposures.
Choose "PSE" if the listed dose data
represents the results of monitoring of
planned special exposures received during the
monitoring period. If more than one PSE was
received in a single year, the licensee should
sum them and report the total of all PSEs.

PRIVACY ACT STATEMENT

Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(3), enacted into law by Section 3 of the Privacy Act of 1974

COMMENTS.
In the space provided, enter additional
information that might be needed to
determine compliance with limits. An
example might be to enter the note that the
SDE,ME was the result of exposure from a

would be to indicate that an overexposed
report has been sent to NRC in reference to
the exposure report.

20.

PRINCIPAL PURPOSE(S): The information is used by the NRC in its evaluation of the
risk of radiation exposure associated with the licensed activity and in exercising its
statutory responsibility to monitor and regulate the safety and health practices of its
licensees. The data permits a meaningful comparison of both current and long-term
exposure experience among types of licensees and among licensees within each type.
Data on your exposure to radiation is available to you upon your request.

3.

ROUTINE USE(S): The information may be used to provide data to other Federal and
State agencies involved in monitoring and/or evaluating radiation exposure received by
individuals monitored for radiation exposure while employed by or visiting or temporarily
assigned to certain NRC licensed facilities; to return data provided by licensee upon
request. Information may be disclosed in accordance with any of the Routine Uses
listed in the Prefatory Statement of General Routine Uses, including to an appropriate
Federal, State, local or Foreign agency in the event the information indicates a violation
or potential violation of law; in the course of an administrative or judicial proceeding; to
an appropriate Federal, State, local and foreign agency to the extent relevant and
necessary for an NRC decision about you or to the extent relevant and necessary for
that agency's decision about you; in the course of discovery under a protective order
issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, and in presenting evidence; to a
Congressional office to respond to their inquiry made at your request; to NRC-paid
experts, consultants, and others under contract with the NRC, on a need-to-know basis;
or to appropriate persons and entities for purposes of response and remedial efforts in
the event of a suspected or confirmed breach of data from this system of records.

4.

WHETHER DISCLOSURE IS MANDATORY OR VOLUNTARY AND EFFECT ON
INDIVIDUAL OF NOT PROVIDING INFORMATION: It is voluntary that you furnish the
requested information, including the Social Security number (SSN) in block #2. The
SSN is used to assure that NRC has an accurate identifier not subject to the
coincidence of similar names or birth dates among the large number of persons on who
data is maintained. The licensee must complete NRC Form 5 on each individual for
whom personnel monitoring is required under 10 CFR 20.2106. Failure to do so may
subject the licensee to enforcement action in accordance with 10 CFR 20.2401.
