| Title | Entering a High Radiation Area without an adequate awareness of radiological conditions |
| Description | A self-revealed finding of very low safety-significance and an associated NCV of TS 5.7 were identified for workers entering a high radiation area (HRA) without an adequate awareness of radiological conditions and while working under a Radiation Work Permit (RWP) that did not allow entry into a high radiation area. The electronic dosimetry worn by the workers alarmed when they entered an area of elevated dose rates. Corrective actions taken by the licensee included denial of their access into the radiologically controlled area. The issue was entered in the licensees corrective action program as CR-PLP-2009-01884.The issue was more than minor because it is similar to Example 6.h in IMC 0612Appendix E Examples of Minor Issues for an issue that is more than minor. The inspectors determined that the violation affected the Occupational Radiation Safety Cornerstone. The inspectors determined that this finding did not involve: (1) an ALARA finding; (2) an overexposure; (3) a substantial potential for overexposure; or (4) an impaired ability to assess doses. Consequently, the inspectors concluded that the SDP assessment for this finding was of very low safety-significance (Green). Additionally, this finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the area of human performance, work practices component, because the supervisor that performed the pre-job brief for the job failed to provide clear guidance on the requirements for entry into a high radiation area.(H.4(b)). |
