O ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS 6.11 High Radiation Area 6.11.1 In lieu of the " control device" or "alam signal" required by paragraph 20.203 (c) (2) of 10 CFR 20, each high radiation area (as defined in 20.202 (b) (3) of 10 CFR 20) in which the intensity of radiation is 1000 mrem /hr or less shall be barricaded and conspicuously posted as a high radiation area and entrance thereto shall be controlled by requiring the issuance of a Special Work Pemit (SWP)*. Any individual or group of individuals peimitted to enter such areas shall be provided with or accompanied by one or more of the following:

a. A radiation monitoring device which continuously indicates the radiation dose rate in the area.

b. A radiation monitoring device which continuously integrates the radiation dose rate in the area ,

and alams when a present integrated dose is l received. Entry into such areas with this monitoring ,

device may be made after the dose rate level in the '

area has been established and personnel have been l made knowledgeable of them.  !

c. An individual qualified in radiation protection procedures who is equipped with a radiation dose rate monitoring device. This individual shall be responsible for providing positive control over the activities within the area and shall perform periodic radiation surveillance at the frequency specified in the Special Work Permit.

6.11.2 The requirements of 6.11.1 above, shall also apply to each high radiation area in which the intensity of radiation is greater than 1000 mrem /5r. In addition, locked doors shall be provided to prevent unauthorized entry into such areas and access to these areas shall be maintained under the admini-strative control of the Shift Supervisor on duty and/

or the Health Physics Supervisor.

• Health Physics and Operations personnel shall be exempt from the SWP requirements; however, entry into high radiation areas for perfoming their assigned duties shall be controlled by the issuance.

of a Radiation Work Permit provided they comply with approved radiation protection procedures for entry into high radiation areas.

ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS 6.12 High Radiation Area 6.12.1 In lieu of the " control device" or " alarm signal" required by paragraph 20.203 (c) (2) of 10 CFR 20, each high radiation area (as defined in 20.202 (b) (3) of 10 CFR 20) in which the intensity of radiation is 1000 mrem /hr or less shall be barricaded and conspicuously posted as a high radiation area and entrance thereto shall be controlled by requiring the issuance of a Special Work Pemit (SWP)*. Any individual or group of individuals pennitted to enter such areas shall be provided with or accompanied by one or more of the following:

4 i a. A radiation monitoring device which continuously J indicates the radiation dose rate in the area.

< b. A radiation monitoring device which continuously l integrates the radiation dose rate in the area and alarms when a present integrated dose is received. Entry into such areas with this monitoring i device may be made after the dose rate level in the

] area has been established and personnel have been i made knowledgeable of them.

l c. An individual qualified in radiation protection procedures who is equipped with a radiation dose

rate monitoring device. This individual shall be a responsible for providing positive control over the activities within the area and shall perfonn I

periodic radiation surveillance at the frequency i specified in the Special Work Permit.

6.12.2 The requirements of 6.12.1, above, shall also apply to each high radiation area in which the intensity of radiation is greater than 1000 mrem /hr. In addition, locked doors shall be provided to prevent unauthorized entry into such areas and access to these areas shall be maintained under the administrative control of the Shift Supervisor on duty and/or the Health Physics Supervisor, i

i

• Health Physics and Operations personnel shall be exempt from the SWP requirements; however, entry into high radiation areas for performing their 2

assigned dutias shall be controlled by the issuance of a Radiation Work Permit provided they comply with approved radiation protection procedures for entry into high radiation areas.
