Abstract
On a conservative calculation for a nonoptimized design, the Safety an d Environmental Assessment of Fusion Power (SEAEP) water cooled design (Model 2) was found to have an Occupational Radiological Exposure (OR E) which would be too high by today's standards. This paper describes the investigations which have been undertaken to reduce the expected O RE to acceptable levels. In addition, an investigation on allowable ex posure to magnetic fields was carried out.
