E. D. Swartz letter to H.
R. Denton dated March 8, 1983
Dear Mr. Denton:
Reference (a) provided the resumes for our Braidwood Station Radiation / Chemistry Supervisor and our Station Health Physicist to address the NRR qualification concerns for the Radiation Protection Manager (RPM) as required by Regulatory Guide 1.8-1977.
A teleconference was subsequently held between NRR and Commonwealth Edison to discuss the qualifications of our Station Health Physicist.
The purpose of this letter is to provide an expanded resume for our Braidwood Station Health Physicist and our proposed training program to upgrade his qualifications.
The FSAR will be amended to reflect the Attachments to this letter as appropriate.
Please address any remaining concerns that you or your staf f may have concerning this matter to this office.
One (1) signed original and fif teen (15) copies of this letter with Attachment are provided for your use.
Very truly yours E. Douglas Swa Nuclear Licensing Administrator Attachment cc:

TIMOTHY D. KEITH RESPONSIBILITY DESCRIPTION:
Station Health Physicist - Braidwood Station June 1982 to August 1982 and January 1983 to Present Responsibilities include being the Leader of the Health Physics Group, Generating Station Emergency Procedure Coordinator and A.LARA Coordinator for the station during the construction phase. Duties include supervising professional and union personnel; preparing and reviewing budgets, sched-ules, goals, and purchase requests; developing, writing and reviewing Radiation Protection procedures and programs including Respiratory Pro-gram, Bioassay Program, Dosimetry Program, Radiation Survey Program, Air Sampling Program, Contamination Control Program, Instrumentation Control Program, Radioactive Waste Shipment Program, Receipt and Leak Testing of Radioactive Materials, Decontamination of Personnel, Equipment and Areas Program, and ALARA Program.
Staff Health Physicist - Quad Cities Station September 1982 to December 1982 and June 1980 to May 1982 General responsibilities included making daily rounds of the turbine ari reactor buildings, the control room and the service building.
During these rounds Health Physics practices were observed, evaluated and cor-rected if needed. Any work that was to be done or was in progress was reviewed daily for good Health Physics practices including proper surveys of the area, proper dosimetry, proper placement of dosimetry, proper res-piratory equipment, proper posting and assuring all Commonwealth Edison Radiation Control Standards and Nuclear Regulatory C. mission Standards were being followed by all workers.
Responsibilities also included numerous initial entries into the drywell both when the unit was at full power and when the unit was in the shutdown mode.
Other responsibilities included the following reviews:
Mask issuance log, drywell manifold report, Rad / Chem Technician log, mask fit test results, radiation work permits, survey sheet and board, personnel contamination log, and air sample activity sheets.
Specific areas of responsibility included the following:
Mask Fit Test Facility - Responsibilities included routine main-tenance of the facility and assuring the materials needed to operate the facility were available. Also included was the
~
proper training of each union technician on the use of and the procedures for the facility.
After each individual was tested, responsibility included a determination as to the validity and accuracy of each test and an evaluation of the test to deter-mine if an individual could safely wear a respirator.

TIMOTHY D. KEITH Respiratory Protection Program - Responsibilities included an evaluation of the techniques used for air sampling of potentially airborne areas to assure the worker was internally protected from radioactivity.
Responsibility also included insuring the proper type of respiratory protection was worn and that the station had an adequate supply of respiratory equipment.
Each day the respi-ratory equipment log was reviewed to insure no potentially con-taminated masks were reused and that no individual was in an air-borne area without the proper respiratory protective equipment.
Radioactive Material Shipment Coordinator - Responsibilities in-cluded knowing the shipping regulations for: each burial site, for each facility radioactive material was being shipped to, CECO, Federal, and State regulations.
Responsibilities also included assuring that all the proper packaging of radioactive materials had been accomplished and that the proper documenta-tion was included with each shipment.
Bioassay Review - Responsibilities included reviewing Bioassay re-ports on whole body counting and urinalysis to determine the extent of internal deposition of an individual and to determine the effec-tiveness of the Respiratory Protection Program.
Responsibilities also included training union technicians on the use of the whole body counter.
Generating Station Emergency Procedure Director - Responsibilities included being part of many GSEP drills and exercises.
In these drills and exercises participation included the following: in-plant Health Physics Team Member, Environmental Team Member, Rad / Chem Director (in the Technical Support Center), Health Physics Director (in the Emergency Off-Site Facility) and Controller.
Procedure Review and Revision - Responsibilities included writing and reviewing procedures in all areas of Operational Power Plant Health Physics.
Radiation Protection and Chemistry Foreman - Responsibilities included directing the work of union technicians in the areas of surveying, decontamination, dosimetry, sampling, respiratory pro-tection, and instrumentation. Approximately 20% of the work hours spent during three 16-week refueling outages and one 6-week main-tenance outage was worked in this capacity.
During the refueling outage of August 1982 to December 1982, responsibilities included following the replacement of feedwater spargers.
These responsi-bilities included surveying and directing surveys in high dose rate and highly contaminated confined areas.
