Emergency Preparedness & Response
Financial Decision Support Template for Choosing Countermeasures in Contaminated Areas
Concerns exist over actual or potential contamination by radionuclides. Identifying options for these contaminated areas assists recovery by providing income for their owners and workers without jeopardizing the customers' health. A broad range of countermeasures (CMs) may fulfil these basic criteria. The STRATEGY Countermeasure Compendium contains CMs that have been assessed against common criteria. Yet the question remains: which option to choose among the feasible CMs for a particular location. This economic template was created to aid the selection of CMs for areas contaminated by radionuclides. Several financial performance indicators are provided for user-defined countermeasure projects.
