' Attention: Mr. S. A. Varga Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant - Units 1 and 2 10CFR20 Exemption Request; Iodine Filter Respiratory Protection Additional Ir. formation for Radiological Assessment Branch Gentlemen:
The following information is submitted in clarification of our response dated February 10, 1984 to questions for exemption to 10CFR20,
. Appendix A, Footnote (c). The applicable question and more accurately stated response are provided:
Question 471.1
" Describe the methods which will be utilized to reduce potential radiciodine levels in the work area to minimal levels. This should include...
degasification..."
Revised Response:
Degasification Normal shutdown procedures require degasification of the RCS by venting the pressurizer vapor space. This process removes and reduces radioactive gas concen-trations including iodine.
Change:
Reference to reactor vessel head venting was removed.
Head venting was inaccurately referred to as a normal shutdown evolution. Although this procedure is still available for use, it is not routinely practiced for operational considerations.
Yours very truly,
[4 o -[nt
