USE AND CARE OF RESPIRATORS i

A. PURPOSE To provide instructions for the proper se'lection, use, maintenance, control and storage of respiratory equipment.

This procedure covers the following respiratory devices:

MSA Custom Comfo Aerosol - Filter Respirator MSA Ultra Filter Respirator f MSA Pressure Demand Apparatus (Air Pack) ) j MSA Constant Flow Air Line Respirator . I

4. NUREG-0041
3. ANSI-88.2 D. MANAGEMENT POLICY It is the Georgia Power management policy to minimize the inhalation of airborne radioactive materials to all personnel assigned or visiting Plant E. I. Hatch. For this reason it is mandatory that personnel at Plant Hatch adhere to all procedures, and policies relating to the respiratory protection program.

The management policy will be normally accomplished by the application of engineering controls, including process, Periodic evaluation of containment, and ventilation equipment.

the respiratory protection program will provide the management with the means for determining what additional measures, equipment and controls may be necessary, where practical, to further meet the objective, while in turn reduce the need for

' wearing respiratory equipment.

(O Routine plant operations are planned activities that are

'd y generally repetitive and occur with various frequencies.

Operations of this nature have been considered in the design of

,h (v ,

The use of respirators as a substitute for practical engineering controls in routine operations is inappropriate. Therefore the installed process, containment, and ventilation equipment will be utilized, in addition to preplanning of work, to minimize the use of respiratory equipment. ,

Nonroutine operations are activities that are either nonrepetitive or else occur so infrequently that adequate limitation of exposures by engineering controls is impractical.

For operations of this type respiratory equipment will be used 4 where needed to provide protection.

Emergency operations are unplanned events characterized by risks sufficient to require immediate action or mitigate an abrupt or ,

rapidly deteriorating situation. Procedures have been issued for ,

handling most emergency situations and are contained in procedure series HNP-4000-4999. Adequate quantities of and locations for respiratory protection equipment are proviqed to handle emergency situations. Training and retrainir.g of personnel in emergency  :

situations requi' ring respiratory protection is provided. l Prior to issuing a respirator to an individual, he/she will be informed of the following policy: Persons wearing respirators

  • e may leave the area at any time for relief frorr. respirator use in (m) the event of equipment malfunction, physical or psychological distress, procedural or communication failure, significant deterioration of operating conditions, or any other condition that might require such relief.

E. REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS 10 CFR20 paragraph 20.103 specifies regulations regarding

~

exposure of individuals to concentrations of radioactive materials in air in restricted areas. This procedure has been written to carry out the regulations.

F. DESCRIPTION OF RESPIRATORS

1. Ultra Filter Full Facepiece Respirator  :

This respirator is a full f acepiece unit with a single or double cartridge prov! ding protection f actor of 50 against dust, fumes, and mists having a time weighted average less than 0.05 milligram per cubic meter. (See Table 1 for definition of protection factor.) The respirator with the oval ultra filter cartridge has an approval No. TC 21C-150. The respirator with the round ultra filter Type H l cartridge has an approval No. TC 21C-155.

{} ,

i NOTE ,

This respirator removes only dispersoids from the air. It gives no protection against gases, vapors, or oxygen deficiency (less than 19.5% 02)-

2. Pressure Demand Apparatus (Air Pack)

The Pressure Demand Apparatus ( Air Pack) consists of a high pressure cylinder, a pressure demand regulator connected by a high pressure tube to the cylinder, a facepiece and tube assembly with an exhalation valve, and a harness assembly for mounting the complete apparatus on the body. The unit maintains a slight positive pressure inside the facepiece during inhalation, thus minimizing potential air in-leakage into the facepiece. The unit contains an audible signal device to indicate when the breathing supply has dropped to a point where the user must return to fresh air. The unit is rated for 30 minutes service. Actual service time will depend on the user and his level of exertion. The unit has an approval No. TC13F-29. It can be used in oxygen '

deficient and in toxic atmospheric conditions and has a protection factor of 10,000 for particulates, gases and vapors.

(])

3. Constant Flow Air Line Respirator - Full and Half facepiece The Constant Flow Air Line Respirator is a respirator approved for use in atmospheres not immediately hazardous to' life or health. The unit consists of a f acepiece and tube assembly, low pressure control valve', from 25-300 feet of air hose, and a portable air filter and regulator.

Breathing air for this unit is provided by the plant service air compressors. The service air is filtered and reduced in pressure to 35-40 psig by the portable air filter and regulator to meet the requirements of the respirator. With this respirator, a continuous flow of breathable air is supplied to the facepiece and provides a cooling ef fect as it meets the respiratory requirements of the wearer. The unit has an approval No. TC19C-78 and provides a protection factor of 2000 for particulates, gases and vapors.

4. Hoods and Suits No allowance can be made for wearing hoods and suits for protection against inhalation of radi~onuclides at present.

bs G. SELECTION OF RESPIRATORS FOR USE NOTE Respiratory protection devices may be required in any situation arising from plant operations where the potential for airborne radioactivity, oxygen defic'iency, or toxic atmospheres exists. In such cases, the air will be monitored by Health Physics or other qualified personnel and the necessary protective devices specified according to the concentration and type of airborne contaminants present. It is the responsibility of the individual and his supervisor to notify Health Physics personnel when working with radioactive or hazardous material that are likely to become airborne. Every precaution should be taken to keep air contamination to a minimum through use of proper ventilation and prior decontamination of equipment or work areas.

1. Regulatory, limits and rules.

Respiratory protective equipment will be selected to provide a protection factor greater than the multiple by which peak concentrations of radioactive materials are expected to

exceed the values specified in Table I Column 1 of Appendix B to 10 CFR20. The equipment selected is to be used so that the average concentration of radioactive material in the air that is inhaled during any period of uninterrupted use in an airborne radioactivity area, on any day, by any individual using the equipment, will not exceed the values specified in Table I, Column 1 of Appendix B to 10CFR20.

For purposes of this procedure, the concentration of radio-active material in the air that.is inhaled when respirators are worn may be initially estimated by dividing the ambient concentration in air by the protection factor specified in Table 1. If a respirator user's intake of radioactive materials is later determined by other measurements to have been greater than that expected from initial estimates of radioactive materials in the air the user inhales, the If greater quantity is to be used in evaluating exposures.

it is less than that initially estimated, the lesser quantity may be used in evaluating exposures.

2. Administrative rules and limits.
a. Section E and paragraph G.1 prescribe rules and regulations which shall not be exceeded. For administrative purposes Table 2 will be used for

' selecting respirators.

b. If airborne conditions exist which require consideration toward exceeding the administrative limits in Table 2, a laboratory supervisor must be consulted and his approval received before using greater values.
3. Selection procedure.
a. Determine the radiological (external radiation and airborne) conditions in the work area using the procedures HNP-8005, 8012, 8013. Air samples should be taken as near the breathing zone where the work will be performed as possible. ( Also if the worker has to pass through an airborne area to get to the work place).
b. If air s mpling o confirms that an airborne condition, as defined in HNP-8003, exists in the work area, respiratory protection equipment, increased surve(llance, or limitation of working times is warranted.
c. Consider the type of work, work hazards and locations, time to complete the work, ambient conditions at the

(~T work location, equipment to be used by the worker, and kJ the potential for airborne conditions to develop during the work period (i.e. highly contaminated areas and equipment, opening of equipment during the work, air movement in the work location, cutting and welding work, etc.).

d. Consult with a laboratory supervisor or designated alternate and select the proper respirator for the work conditions using Table 2 and paragrdoh b and c above.
e. Issue the respiratory equipment per Section H.

The worker, af ter proper training, will wear the l respirator using Section I as guidance for donning the equipment.

4. Determination of Airborne Radiation Exposure.
a. Anytime an individual is likely to inhale, for any two hours in a day or ten hours in one week, radioactive materials in uniform concentrations as specified in Appendix B. Table 1 Column 1 of 10CFR20, the following calculations shall be made to oetermine levels of airborne radiation exposure.

b. Anthropometric measurements (f ace length, f ace width, ,

and lip width) will be taken to identify persons who fall outside of the 95% limits of f acial measurement.

Any facial abnormalities will also be noted. This information will be documented on Form 2 and will '

assist in identifying those persons ,who might have more difficulty in obtaining a good seal with a respirator. i.

c. A qualitative test will be performed for each type of ,

facepiece as follows: i (1) The person dons the respirator with an organic cartridge attached.

(2) The person checks the facepiece seal using the negative pressure test as described in NUREG-0041 paragraph 8.5.2.3.3. ,

(3) Ihe instructor will test the fit during normal breathing by waving a cotton or stencil brush filled with isoamyl acetate gently near the periphery of the facepiece. Smoke tubes, when available, may also be used. If ador is detected, the wearer must re-adjust the facepiece and the

({') test redone.

NOTE

" When practical, a test chamber will be used in lieu of the cotton or stencil brush. Evaporate about 173 milliliters of isoamyl acetate for each 1000 cubic feet of room volume. (Do not use heat for evaporation).

(4) The instructor may then have the wearer perform the following movements:

(a) deep breathing (b) moving head from side to side (slowly)

(c) moving head up and down (slowly)

(d) frown (for full face masks only)

(e) talking (e.g., speaking a short passage aloud)

(f) normal breathing.

(5) The instructor will then re-check the seal with f *s-( >)

isoamyl acetate or smoke tube.

b. Where it is impractical, a negative pressure test will i I

be performed as follows: 1 (1) Close off the inlet opening of the canister or breathing tube by covering it with the palm of the ,

hand ,

(2) Gently in' hale so that facepiece collapses slightly.

(3) Kold breath for 10 seconds.

(4) If facepiece remains in slightly collapsed

- condition and no inward leakage of air is -

detected, the tightness of the respirator is satisfactory.

([)

(5) If unsatisfactory do not use the respirator and contact Health Physics.

K. MEDICAL REQUIREMENT All personnel who wear respirators will be evaluated by competent medical personnel prior to an assignment requi, ring such use. The evaluation will determine if the individual is physically able to perform the work and use the respiratory protective equipment. A physician will determine what health and physical conditions are pertinent. The medical status of each respirator user will be reviewed annually.

L. BI0 ASSAYS AND SURVEYS I

1. Air sampling and contamination surveys A comprehensive air sampling and contamination survey program is in ef fect to identify radioactive hazards to l evaluate individual exposures, and to permit proper selection of respiratory protective equipment. Surveys are performed on a routine and special btsis per the use of

(, procedures HNP-8013, 8012, 8008, 8005, 8050 and applicable instrument operating procedures. High-efficiency (greater i

r')

'(./ than 99%) filter media are used to measure airborne l

l 7 particulate concentrations. Activated charcoal is used to l

2. Bioassays -

i NOTE Refer to HNP-8021 and 8009 -

a. Whole body counting -

(1) It is the intent to obtain a whole body count or urinalysis on each G.P.C. employee who may have been exposed to airborne radioactivity at least (

once each year. 3 (2) Whole body counts will also be made where suspect '

internal contamination has occurred. '

i

b. Urinalysis ,

(1) A* fission product and tritium analysis will be i performed routinely on selected personnel who may have been exposed to airborne radioactivity.

(2) The above analysis will also be made, when deemed s necessary, where suspect internal contamination s has occurred.

c. Nasal, throat swabs or washings and breath samples will be performed as necessary on suspect inhalation cases to serve as a qualitative exposure index for radionuclides.
d. Follow up sampling (Whole body, urinalysis, nasal throat swabs, breath samples, etc.)'will be performed and will be frequent enough to evaluate the uptake of .

radionuclides after an incident. The sample collection will be appropriately timed to permit accurste evaluation of the total intake and the resultant dose.

NOTE It is noted that there are extenuating circumstances which may prevent whole body counting of all personnel affected by this procedure. Such situations as persons leaving the plant site without proper notification to

! the management, whole body counting equipment

! malfunction at critical counting times and scheduling l Impossibilities will prevent a 100% whole body counting I program. The frequency of these events, should not
