Gentlemen:

l

Thank you for your letters of September 30 and October 22, 1980, informing us

of steps you have ~taken to correct the items of noncompliance concerning activities

l

under NRC Operating License No. DPR-72 brought to your attention in our letter of

September 8, 1980.

The September 30 letter also outlined steps you have taken in

response to the Notice of Significant Appraisal Findings.

We will' examine your

corrective actions and plans during subsequent inspe::tions.

With regard to Item B.b of the Notice of Violation,10 CFR 20.103(a)(3) states

that, as appropriate, licensees shall use measurements of radioactivity excreted

from the body, or any combination of such measurements as may be necessary for

timely detection and assessment of individual intakes of radioactivity by exposed

individuals.

Your supplemental response of October 22, 1980 describes actions

you have taken in this area of concern.

We believe these actions provide the

appropriate measurement required by the regulation and we will examine them

during future inspections.

With regard to your response to Items F and G, review of additional infomation

provided in the October 22 submittal leads us to concur with your position on

these items.

The information provided in your supplemental response indicates

that Item F did not constitute noncompliance.

Items G.a and G.b also did not

constitute noncompliance based on the information provided in your letter of

September 30.

Item G.c will be combined with Item E as an additional example

of failure to post in accordance with 10 CFR 20.203.

We will take appropriate

~

'

action to amend our records to reflect these changes.

'

We appreciate your cooperation with us.

Sincerely,

-

Dear Mr. O'Reilly:

In accordance with your request, we offer the following supplemental re-

l

sponses to the apparent Items of Noncompliance identified as items B(b),

F, and G in the referenced inspection report.

B(b) Supplemental Response: Procedural revisions have been made

to RP-102, " Respiratory Equipment Manual, Revision 9" and RP-208,

(

" Bioassay' Sampling Procedure, Revision 1" requiring all personnel

assigned to the Crystal River Unit #3 respiratory program to have

a baseline whole body count prior to initial respiratory assignment.

Additionally, termination whole body counts wil~. be provided for

respirator wearers whenever possible.

If an individual fails to

present himself before departure, an explanation of that fact will

be added to his exposure record.

All personnel dosimetered after

November 1980 will be informed of this policy during the badging pro-

Cess.

We are presently in compliance with our new baseline counting re-

quirements.

Full implementation of termination counting requirements

will be accomplished by November 1, 1980

F. Supplemental Response: As referenced in our response to Appendix

B, item F, dated 9-30-80, we indicated that air samples were taken

in the vicinity of the workers in question.

Dear Mr. O'Reilly:

We offer the following responses to the items identified as significant appraisal

findings of Appendix A, and the apparent items of noncompliance of Appendix B in

the referenced inspection report.

Appendix A

NOTICE OF SIGNIFICANT APPRAISAL FINDDiGS

.

A.

An adequate Respiratory Protection Program, from training to use did not exist.

The importance of this significant appraisal finding is underscored by the

number of noncompliance items listed in Appendix B (Items A, B, and F) which

relate to the Respiratory Protection Program (Sections 7 and 9).

A. Response:

Some corrective action has been taken to upgrade'our Respiratory

Protection Program as of this date. This action includes current economic and

safety evaluation of feasibility for purchase of a respiratory fitting chamber,

interim assignment of a Health / Physics technician to the Training Department,

permanent assignment of a Health / Physics Training Instructor by October 6, 1980,

and addressing several Inspector Followup Items in a proposed procedural re-

vision.

Additionally, two trips have been completed to other nuclear facilities for

the purpose of whole body counts evaluation. Documentation is being prepared

to facilitate Inspector Followup action.
