1 The Nuclear Regulatory Comission Staff has reviewed your Recovery Operations Plan Change Requests Hos.16 and 18 forwarded in references (a) and (b).
Change Request No.16 is an additional surveillance requirement: a mechanical operability check of each containment personnel airlock, perfomed at least once every three months. This check is designed to insure safe operation of the airlock doors, by cycling the doors through open and closed positions, inspecting lock components, and applying lubrication where necessary. Change Request No.18 is to permit the temporary simultaneous opening of both airlock doors in the equipment hatch, to allow the passage of certain tools and equipment too long to transport through personnel airlock number 2.
You have comitted to adequate radiological, mechanical and security surveillance of the area whenever both doors are open. You have also comitted to minimize any activities that could cause a fire within the containment building (and potentially result in an increase in airborne radioactivity) during the time both airlock doors are open.
Our review has detennined that:
1.
The doors will only be open for a limited duration, 2.
Any air flow cut of the building will be restricted, 3.
The preoperability checks will verify that the doors are mechanically

Mr. B.K. Kanga October 7, 1982 4.
Local radiological monitoring instrumentation will be operating in the immediate area of the airlocks, 5.
Personnel are present to immediately close both doors in the event of any abnormal conditions, and 6.
The simultaneous opening of both airlock doors will be accomplished by written NRC approved procedures.
-Based on the above, we conclude that this operation will maintain the public health and safety and consequently approve your request as indicated in the enclosed amended sections to the Recovery Operations Plan (Change No. 17).
