Closed (0 pen item 50-369/80-41-03)
The inspector discussed the concern for the lack of electric power to l
operate the air sampler during the emergency exercise with the responsible licensee representatives.
The licensee has purchased long power cords
'
capable of supplying electric power anywhere in the auxiliary building,; the most severe service requirement.
For outside needs, electric power is supplied by generators mounted in the health physics (HP) vehicles.. For
.
the exercise incident related to item 80-41-03, the HP vehicle had been delayed by site security. Security procedures would not delay the HP staff nor other emergency personnel (nurse, firefighters, Let. al.) during a
-
"real" emergency.
