High Range Radiation (II.F.1)
Concern The licensee should commit to install, by January 1, 1981, permanent radiation monitors for the Steam Jet Air Ejectors, Atmospheric Reliefs, and Main Steam Safety Valves. These monitors should have a range of up 5
to 10 pci/cc for the Steam Jet Air E]e: tors (and hoggers if different 3
release point) and 10 pci/cc for the steam reliefs and safeties.

Response
Alabama Power Company is in the process of developing design to meet the January 1, 1981, requirements.
This design will meet all objectives for monitoring releases from the Steam Jet Air Ejectors, Atmospheric Reliefs and Main Steam Safety Valves.
Preliminary evaluation of a schedule to install these monitoring systems indicates it will be possible to meet the January 1,1981, date; however, all aspects of the schedule have not been finalized.
Once this is done a firm schedule will be transmitted.
