The limits providad in Section 20.102(a) and (b) shall not be excceded.

2.

If the radioactive caterial is of such form that intake l

in a rcotricted area to uac respiratory protective equipment to limit the inhalacion of-airborne radioactive catorial, provided:

1.

The limits apocified in paragraph a. above are not exceeded.

2.

Respiratory protective equipment is selected and used so that the peak concentrations of airborne radioactive material inhaled by an individual wearing the equipeent do not exceed the partinent concentration values specified in Appendix B, Table 1, Coluen 1, of-10 CFR 20.

For the purposes of this subparagraph, the concentration of radioactive material-thatl 1s ~ inhaled when respirators are worn cay be determined by dividing the ambient airborne concentration by the pro-tection factor -specified in Table 6.9-1 for the respirator protective equipment worn.

If the intake of radioactivity is later determined by other m2asurements to have been different than that initially eaticated, the later quantity.

shall be used in ovaluating tha e::posures.

3. ' The licennea adviacs each respirator user that he may leave the area at any time for relief from respirator use in case of equipm2nt calfunction, physical or phychological dis-comfort, or any other conditien that might cause reduction in the protection afforded the wearer._

4.

The licensee-maintains a respiratory protective program adequate to assure that the requirements above are tot and incorporates practices for respiratory protection censistent with thosa reco= ended by the Americcn National

,S tandards Ins titute ( ANSI-Z88.2-1969).

Such a program shall include:

(a) Air samplin3 and other surveys sufficient to identify the hazard, to evaluate individual exposuras, and to permit proper selection of respiratory protective equipment.

(b) Written proced:

to escure prepar selectLoc, supervision,

'and training of personnel using such protectiva equipcent.
