Description:
This working data file set, prepared by LANL, consists of five files that include information about worker locations, operations performed, and results of samples indicating workplace exposures to various chemicals at the Rocky Flats Plant.
Rocky Flats workers were exposed to complex mixtures of chemicals and radioactive materials, such as plutonium. The exposure to such a mixture of possible carcinogens may produce adverse health effects. The purpose of the Complex Chemical study was to examine the feasibility of estimating individual worker exposures to such complex mixtures of chemicals, so that the estimated exposures would be useful for epidemiologic studies. The study attempted to use information found in records about chemical purchases, work areas, and plant operations to assess individual chemical exposures. A general methodology was developed and applied to a small pilot population of 58 Rocky Flats workers. The pilot study gathered exposures from 1956 to 1989 for those in the pilot.
This data file set is comprised of an agent dictionary file (RFCHMW01_d1), a detailed sample file (RFCHMW01_d2), a general sample results file (RFCHMW01_d3), a linking file for persons exposed (RFCHMW01_d4), and a sample results file (RFCHMW01_d5).
