1. INTRODUCTION

This report describes the pattern of cancer deaths that we have found to be 
associated with low-level exposure to radiation among workers employed since 
1950 at the Santa Susana Field Laboratories (SSFL) and related Los Angeles-area 
facilities. These facilities, including the field station, have formed the basis of 
what is now the Rocketdyne Division of Rockwell International. Nuclear operations at 
the field station in particular have long been a focus of concern. More than fifteen 
years ago, workers and local residents began raising questions about accidents at 
the facility and the risk of radioactive releases that might prove harmful to SSFL 
personnel or the surrounding community..
