Monitoring crews go out into the field to practice radiation measurement and sample collection. EPA staff members supported both launches at the launch site and were equipped to measure radiation and make recommendation in the event of a launch accident. In 1989, DOE, EPA, and the Washington State Department of Ecology entered into an agreement to clean-up the Hanford Site. This approach is designed to help focus on the higher end of the hierarchy of control to prevent event reoccurrence. 1.
