Re: tritium inspection plan--technical contact Rick, the licensee contact for the acoustical monitoring of the pipe is Jerry Panfield. He can be reached at 815-417-3384. My understanding, is that they will begin the monitoring Monday of next week, take'a break for the holidays, and then complete the testing the first week or so of January.-

Please let me know who will be contacting the licensee and have that person get back to me or Greg with any issues.

thanks...N

Nick & Greg Please see attached inspection plan for the tritium. Note that the check of the blow down pipe integrity before their next release is your assignment.

Thanks,.-

Rick

Melvin Holmberg David Hills; Nirodh Shah; Richard Skokowski Wed, Dec 14, 2005 3:32 PM Fwd: Re: tritium inspection plan--technical contact Dave, Nick and Rick, I havespoken with the licensee (Jerry Panfield) on their inspection plans. They will use the "Sahara" acoustical leak detection system from the Pressure Pipe Inspection Co. to detect any other leakage sources (other than the vacuum breaker valves) from the 5 miles of affected piping. I plan to go to the site and observe one day.of this testing on December 22nd and provide'any input and insights to John House for his inspection followup.

Nick, I shouldn't need aTLD, but if you could verify my sight access is still valid I would appreciate it. I will charge my time to your integrated report and the event followup procedure.

Thanks,
