o Procedures prepared for A and B above shall be reviewed and approved by the Plant Manager, or his designee, and UM the Manager of Operations.
Q Temporary changes to procedures described in Specification 6.5.A above which do not change the intent of the be D.
original procedure, may be made with the concurrence of two individuals holding senior operator licenses. Such changes shall be documented and subsequently reviewed by. the PORC and approved by the Plant Manager or his designee.
E.
Temporary changes to procedures described in Specification 6.5.B may be made with the concurrence of an individual holding a senior operator license and the health physicist on duty.
F.
Licensed radioactive sealed sources shall be leak tested f or contamination.
Tests for leakage and/or contamination shall be performed by the licensee or by other persons specifically authorized by the Commission or an agreement state as f ollows:
1.
Each licensed sealed source, except startup sources previously subjected to core flux, containing radioactive materiais, other than Hydrogen 3, with half-life greater than thirty days and in any form, other than gas, shall be tested for leakage and/or contamination at intervals not to exceed six months.
2.
The periodic leak test required does not apply to sealed sources that are stored and are not being used.
The sources exempted from this test shall be tested f or leakage prior to any use or transfer to another user unless they have been leak tested within six months prior to the date of use or transfer.
In the absence of a certificate f rom a transferrer indicating that a leak test has been made within six months prior to the transfer, sealed sources shall not be put into use until tested.
3.
Each sealed startup source shall be tested within 31 days prior to being subjected to core flux and following repair or maintenance to the source.
The leakage test shall be capable of detecting the presence of 0.005 microcurie of radioactive material on the test sample.
If the test reveals the presence of 0.005 microcurie or more of removable contamination, it shall immediately be withdrawn f rom use, decontaminated, and repaired, or be disposed of in accordance with Commission regulations.
Notwithstanding the periodic leak tests required by this Technical Specification, any licensed sealed source is exempt from such leak test when the source contains 100 microcuries or less of beta and/or gamma emitting material or 5 i
microcuries or less of alpha emitting material.
A special report shall be prepared and submitted to the Commission within 90 days if source leakage tests reveal the presence of >0.005 microcuries of removable contamination.
