Table 4-7. Annual dose and associated excess latent cancer fatalities from incident-free onsite transport of radioactive material under the no-action alternative.
| Low-level | 0.011 | 2.0 | 150 |
| Mixed | 5.5´10-5 | 0.12 | 4.3 |

4.5´10-6f | 8.4´10-4g | 0.060g |
a. See Appendix E for a list of waste streams which
make up each waste type. Dose is based on exposure to all waste
streams of a particular waste type.
b. See Section 4.1.11.2 for descriptions of the receptors.
c. Totals are rounded to two significant figures.
d. Assumes the same individual has maximum exposure to each waste stream (Appendix E) for a single year.
e. Dose from 1 year of exposure to incident-free transportation of all waste streams (see Appendix E).
f. Represents additional probability of an excess latent cancer fatality.
g. Values equal the total dose the riskrisk factor (0.0004 excess latent fatal cancers per personrem).
