Medical Surveillance for Former
Department of Energy Workers at the
Nevada Test Site

This project has developed a medical screening program for former
workers of the Department of Energy's Nevada Test Site (NTS) in
order to prevent and minimize the health impact of diseases caused
by site-related workplace exposures. The aim of this project is
to identify, locate, and screen high risk groups of former construction
trades workers who worked in the tunnels, shafts, drillholes, and
atmospheric testing areas of the Nevada Test Site. The medical screening
program for former Nevada test Site workers is part of the Department
of Energy's Former DOE Workers' Medical Surveillance Program.
