Licensee Action on Previous Inspection Findings (0 pen) Unresolved Item (454/79-07-01) Placing the lead letter "F" on the penetrameter.

Ceco informed the inspector that the ASME Section V Sub Group Committee accepted the lead letter "F" being on the penetrameters as being an acceptable radiographic technique. The written approva!

should be submitted by the Sub Group Committee in August, 1981. The inspector will review the matter at that time.

The NRC License expires May 31, 1986, and covers IR 192

.

up to 150 cures and CO 60 up to 100 curies.

PTL does not have a CO 60 scurce or an x-ray machine

.

onsite.

The lab has five IR 192 sources onsite.

.

PTL hauls the sources from place to place onsite in a

.

pick-up using correct radioactive signs.

The lab has a Kodak X-Omat automatic processor and a

.

hand film processing tank that can be used.

Survey meters are calibrated every 90 days.

.

Docket dosimeters are read and recorded every day when

.

performing RT.

Film badges are processed and recorded every month.

.

Acceptable color rope and signs were available for securing areas when radiography is being performed.

Decay curves of the IR 192 sources are posted in lab.

.
