RP & ALARA
Westinghouse is the largest supplier of radiation protection services in North America.
With over 40 years of experience, Westinghouse works at every operating nuclear power plant, every major Department of Energy (DOE) site closure project, and every commercial nuclear power plant decommissioning project in the U.S. We have supported more than 1,100 refueling outages, and routinely provide radiation protection personnel for more than 6,000 positions annually.
We understand the demands of the industry and have the expertise required to apply solid fundamentals to ensure a high performing organization to protect workers, the public and the environment. Our personnel work alongside your facility staff, are outsourced for specific department functions or are completely turnkey.
Our objective is to partner with you to achieve your goals of reducing personnel radiation exposure, personnel risk, human performance errors, critical path schedule time and outage costs. We realize cost savings through cutting edge technology, remote performance of hazardous tasks, effective team communication, real time third party and independent verification and shorter overall outage durations.
