RE: TMI write up I only have an accession number for the Preliminary Report. ML093280879. Also here were our key messages: Key Messages
" On November 21, 2009, an airborne contamination event occurred inside the containment building'(also known as the reactor building) at Three Mile Island (TM I).
" The event had no affect on public health and'safety.
- No contamination was found outside the containment building.
" Approximately 150 workers exited the containment building and were processed through the licensee's portal radiation monitors.
" Workers that were not able to clear the portal monitors were decontaminated and proceeded to be whole body counted.
- Some workers received unplanned occupational dose exposures.
- However, based on information provided by the licensee, the level of dose received*
was within a small fraction of the NRC's regulatory limit.
" The NRC has dispatched technical experts to independently review and confirm the licensee's technical assessment.
" The licensee continues to investigate the cause of the event.
e The NRC's resident inspector is onsite and is monitoring the licensee's ongoing activities.
" The NRC has been responding to media questions and plans a press briefing today at the TMI training center.
" The NRC will continue follow up of this event under normal event follow up inspections to evaluate licensee activities in evaluating personnel contaminations and root cause for the event.
