As a Certified Health Physicist, he has been providing radiation safety and occupational safety training and consultation in the Bay Area since 1990. During this time, he has been published extensively and presented scientific treatises on all areas of his expertise focusing particularly on risk assessment and risk amelioration. Mr. Anastas will speak to the subject material, but welcomes your questions and interests to guide the discussion.

6. Membership Renewals

We appreciate the patience of our members as we transition to our new management company. They are working very hard to come up to speed just as soon as possible. In late 2006 membership invoices had been sent out to several of our member companies up for renewal. An acknowledgement of those renewals will be sent in the next two weeks. If you have not received confirmation of your membership renewal by February 16th, please contact Trevor at piba@piba.org to confirm payment. Thank you for your understanding. If you are unsure whether or not your company is a member, or exactly what your status as a member is, please contact us at piba@piba.org and we will be happy to help.
