Gentlemen:
Subject:
Inspection 50-333/76-21
This refers to your letter dated November 20, 1978, in response to our
letter dated October 30, 1978, and to a discussion between the inspector
and Mr. Leonard on site on December 7, 1978, at the conclusion of Inspec-
tion No. 50-333/78-28.
Thank you for informing us of the corrective and preventive actions
documented in your letter.
These actions will be examined during a
subsequent inspection of your licensed program.
Our review of the additional information cn item B indicated that the
controls specified by TS 6.11 (A) 2 were required in that equipment was
accessible in this area and during inspection and servicing the radiation
dose rate to the whole body could exceed 1,000 mrem /hr. Specifically,
your survey record dated September 26, 1978, identified a 1,000 mrem /hr
gamma radiation dose rate at the entrance to the area of the drywell
sump. Subsequent surveys identified up to 20,000 mrem /hr gamma radiation
dose rate at 3 inches from a valve, and several thousand mrad /hr beta
radiation dose rate in thie vicinity.
Sincerely,
/
