Short description: This electronic calculator provides information on establishing preliminary remediation goals (PRGs) for radionuclides at CERCLA sites with radioactive contamination. The 'Radionuclide Preliminary Remediation Goals (PRGs) for Superfund' electronic calculator presents standardized exposure parameters and equations that should generally be used for calculating radionuclide PRGs for residential, commercial/industrial, and agricultural land use exposures, tap water and fish ingestion exposures, and migration of radionuclides through the unsaturated zone.
