Radiation Work Permits 1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of the procedure is to explain the proper method of completing a Radiation Work Permit (R.W.P.).

2.0 DISCUSS,10N A RWP is required of all personnel prior to entering an area posted with signs indicating, CAUTI0ti:

Radioactive Materials, Airborne Contamination, High Radiation Area, Radiation Area, and Contaminated Area. This procedure provides a means of controlling access to areas wher e personnel could receive exposures in excess of the limits in 10CFR20.

Individuals enter.ing RWP areas must have obtained at least RWP clearance or be provided with a qualified escort.

Only in the event that safety of equipment or personnel is endangered, may entry be made into a "RWP Required Area" without a RWP.

In such a case, the entry will be made by qualified oersonnel (HP Clearance) carrying portable radiation monitors, wearing appropriate protective clothing, dosimeters and film badges.

Following such an entry, a permit will be executed shortly thereafter.

Using the RWP as a keypunch form permits pertinent information to be inputted into the REM (Radiation Exposure Monitoring) computer system.

This information will be used to generate reports on Man-Rem Exposure by Job Category and Radiation Work Permit Detail List.

For further information on computer applications of the RWP refer to the Radiation Exposure Monitoring System (REMS) Procedure Manual.

NOTE:

Radiation Protection Personnel may enter an area where limits may or do exceed either/or all of a, b and c for the purpose of conducting a radiological survey for the preparation of an R.W.P. without first having a valid R.W.P.

If this is the case, the person conducting the survey will use the last survey of the area as a guideline for choosing the

when required, and to see that all Radiation Controls are enforced while work is in progress.

In addition, it is the responsibility of the personnel involved to adhere to the instructions listed on the R.W.P.

5.2 Initiation of RWPs All RWPs (except standing RWPs) will automatically terminate on the day following the issue date or as specified by the Radiation Protection Supervisor / Foreman.

If the job must continue beyond the termination date, a new RWP will be issued.

5.2.1 The person who is going to perform the work described on the RWP will initiate the RWP. An individual with at least RWP clearance must be assigned to each RWP Job.

~

5.2.2 Blocks #1, #2, #3, #4 and #5 should be filled in by the person initiating the RWP.

NOTE:

Block #3, the Job Ticket Number, composed of component, task, and schedule number, will be used for future cross-reference with the maintenance systems.

If the Job Ticket Number is not available, the Work Request Number may be used. Block #4, the Job Category Code, will be used in the REM system to break down exposure (Man-Rem) by Job Category and 2

Refuelino All jobs related to a scheduled refueling period.

This period will be from plant shutdown for refueling to establishment of normal plant operation.

The person initiating the RWP takes it to the Radiation Protection Department.

5.2.3 The persen initiating the RWP will then take the RWP to the Job Foreman in charge of the work. The Job Fortman will complete the information in block #7, " Author! zed Personnel".

?

He will also review the information in blocks #1, #2, #3, #4 2

and #5 and sign the RWP in block #9.

5.2.4 On receipt of the RWP, a Rad Chem Tech / Junior, or other suitably qualified personnel, will evaluate via appropriate surveys, the radiological conditions involved, and based on the conditions, specify all applicable radiation safety precautions, monitoring, and protective clothing, etc. : That are required for the job described on the RWP.

The Rad Chem Tech / Junior will supply information in blocks #10, #11, #12 and #13.

5.2.4.1 If the RWP is being prepared for entry into an area that is determined to be a high radiation area, the Radiation Chemistry Tech / Junior will check " Dose Rate Instrument" in block 12 under " Dosimetry".

5.2.4.2 If the RWP is being prepared for entry into an area that contains a noble gas environment above the levels specified in Appendix B,. Table I, Column I of 10CFR20, The Radiation Chemistry Tech /Jr. will insert in block 12 under " Head - Other," that glasses with side shields or goggles will be required.

5.2.4.3 When calculating stay time (Block #13) based on noble gas environments (XE-133, KR-85, etc.) refer to HPP 1602.

5.2.4.4 If the work to be performed is in an area which at the discretion of the Radiation Protection Staff is a Radiation Hazard, the "HP Escort required" item within block #12 will be checked indicating that radiation protection support as provided by a Rad Chem Tech /Jr. or another suitably qualified irdividual is required.

-f 5.2.5 The RWP is reviewed by the Radiation Protection' Supervisor /

Foreman / Rad Chem. Tech. who will verify that a qualified radiation protection escort is assigned to the job and if l7} ]l 5.0

1613 Revision 7 04/15/77 approved he will sign the permit in the space orovided in block #17. Approval by telephone communication is also appropriate.

5.2.6 Af ter approval by the Radiation Protection Supervisor / Foreman / Rad Chem. Tech., the person initiating the RWP signs the RWP in Block #8 indicating he understands and will comply with all the provisions of the RWP.

5.2.7 The RWP is then taken to the Shif t Supervisor /Forenan, by the person initiating the RWP.

The Shift Supervisor / Foreman reviews the RWP and signs in Block #17.

His signature in Block #17 indicates he has reviewed the Radiation Work Permit and that sufficient radiation protection has been provided for the work to proceed.

NOTE:

The Shift Supervisor / Foreman's sionature in Block

  1. 17 indicates that he has reviewed and accroved all aoolicable tacaina applications to perform the job indicated on the RWP.

5.2.8 The Shift Supervisor / Foreman will keep the pink copy for file in the Control Room.

5.2.9 The wnite copy of the REP will be returned to the Radiation Protection Department by the person ' initiating the RWP.

5.2.10 The canary copy of the RWP will be placed at the job site until the job is completed.

Personnel as indicated in Block

  1. 7 must log dosimeter readings, as indicated in Blocks #15 and
  1. 16 and the " Radiation Exposure Monitoring Attachment to Radiation Work Permit" (if provided).

~

5.2.11 Upon completion of work, and prior to termination of the RWP the Job Foreman will insure that all tools, materials and 6.0 202

1613 Revision 8 09/27/77 equipment are bagged and tagged as per HPP 1682 and removed from the work area.

He will also make sure that all entries are completed in Blocks #15 and #16 of the R'iP and the " Attachment to RWP".

5.2.12 Upon completion of items listed in 5.2.11 the Job Foreman will return the canary copy of the RWP to th' r.diation Protection Department.

The Radiation Protection Department will verify that 5.2.11 is complete and initiate any additional decontamin-ation activities as requimd.

3.2.13 The white copy of the -0:P will be signed off by the Job Foreman in Block #14.

He will at this time notify the Shift Supervisor

/ Foreman. The Shift Supervisor / Foreman will then remove the pink copy from the c ntrol Room.

o 5.2.14 The exposure data on the canary copy of the RWP will be trans-ferred to the corresponding secticns of the white copy of the RWP by the Rcdiation Protection Department.

The white copy of the RWP will be retained in the permanent files of the Radiation Protection Department.

5.3 Standing RWP's (SRWP) 5.3.1 These permits are issued for routine inspections and performing valve lineups in areas requiring 'iWP's for entry.

Standing RWP's will be issued at the discretion of the Radiation Protection Supervisor / Foreman.
