The Model 2724 Pu8Be neutron source is dot.bly encapsulated in stainless steel (see Monsanto aescarch Corporation drawing A-2724-BA00).

The neutron output is 1.lE + 7 n/sec (+ 10%) with a nominal 5 curies of Pu-2387 The source will be shipped to ZPS-1 in a U.S.D.O.T.

specification 7A (type A) container which utilizes water e>: tended polyester neutron shielding.

Erickson is responsible for radiation safety at ZPS-1.

Mr. Erickson's resume and a description of the ZPS-1 rad-chem staff are given in FSAR Attachment 13.A-8 and Section 13.1.2.2.3, respectively.

Personnel monitoring for neutron dose will be in accordance with criteria and methods recommended in Revision 1 of USt;RC Regulatory Guide 8.34.

As time constraints are involved for the procuren.cnt of the neutron source,a reply to this request by March 2,
