6.8.4 The following programs shall be established, implemented, and maintained:
a.
Reactor Coolant Sources Outside Containment A program to reduce leakage from those portions of systems outside containment that could contain highly radioactive fluids durin,q a serious transient or accident to as low as practical levels.
the systems include RHR, Boron Recycle, Refueling Water, Liquid Waste, Waste Gas, Safety Injection, Chemical and Volume Control, Contain-ment Spray, and Nuclear Sampling.
The program shall include the following:
1)
Preventive maintenance and periodic visual inspection requirements, and 2)
Integrated leak test requirements for each system at refueling cycle intervals or less.
b.
In-Plant Radiation Monitoring A program which will ensure the capability to accurately determine the airborne iodine concentration in vital areas under accident conditions.
This program shall include the following:
1)
Training of personnel, 2)
Procedures for monitoring, and 3)
Provisions for maintenance of sampling and analysis equipment.
c.
Secondary Water Chemistry A program for monitoring of secondary water chemistry to inhibit steam generator tube degradation.
This program shall include:
1)
Identification of a sampling schedule for the critical variables and control points for these variables, 2)
Identification of the procedures used to measure the values of the critical variables, 3)
Identification of process sampling points, which shall include monitoring the discharge of the condensate pumps for evidence of condenser in-leakage, l

6.10.3 Records of quality assurance activities required by the QA Manual shall be retained for a period of time required by ANSI N45.2.9-1974.
6.11 RADIATION PROTECTION PROGRAM Procedures for personnel radiation protection shall be prepared consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 20 and shall be approved, maintained and adhered to for all operations involving personnel radiation exposure.
6.12 HIGH RADIATION AREA 6.12.1 In lieu of the " control device" or " alarm signal" required by paragraph 20.203(c)(2) of 10 CFR 20, each high radiation area, as defined in 10 CFR Part 20, in which the intensity of radiation is equal to or less than 1000 mrem /hr at 45 CM (18 in.) from the radiation source or from any surface which the radiation penetrates shall be barricaded and conspicuously posted as a high radiation area and entrance thereto shall be controlled by requiring issuance of a Radiation Work Permit (RWP).
Individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures (e.g.. or ation Protection Technician) or personnel continu-l ously escorted by such individonis may be exempt from the RWP issuance require-ment during the performance of their assigned duties in high radiation areas with exposure rates equal to or less than 1000 mrem /hr provided they are other-wise following plant radiation protection procedures for entry into high radiation areas.

i ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS HIGH RADIATION AREA (Continued)
Any individual or group of individuals permitted to enter such areas shall be provided with or accompanied by one or more of the following:
a.
A radiation monitoring device which continuously indicates the radiation dose rate in the area; or b.
A radiation monitoring device which continuously integrates the radiation dose rate in the area and alarms when a preset integrated dose is received.
Entry into such areas with this monitoring device may be made after the dose rate level in the area has been established and personnel have been made knowledgeable of them; or c.
An individual qualified in radiation protection procedures with a radiation dose rate monitoring device who is responsible for providing positive control over the activities within the area and shall perform periodic radiation surveillance at the frequency specified by the Radiation Protection Manager in the RWP.
l 6.12.2 In addition to the requirements of Specification 6.12.1, areas acces-sible to personnel with radiation levels greater than 1000 mrem /hr at 45 CM (18 in.) from the radiation source or from any surface which the radiation penetrates shall be provided with locked doors to prevent unauthorized entry, and the keys shall be maintained under the administrative control of the Shift Foreman on duty and/or health physics supervision.
Doors shall remain locked except during periods of access by personnel under c, approved RWP which shall specify the dose rate levels in the immediate work area and the maximum allowable stay time for individuals in that area.
In lieu of the stay time specification of the RWP, direct or remote (such as closed circuit TV cameras) continuous surveillance may be made by personnel qualified in radiation protection procedures to provide positive exposure control over the activities being performed within the area.
For individual areas accessible to personnel with radiation levels greater than 1000 mrem /hr* that are located witN m acge areas, such as PWR containment, where no enclosure exists for purposes of locking, and no enclosure can be reasonably constructed around the individual areas, that area shall be bar-ricaded, conspicuously posted, and a flashing light shall be activated as a warning device.
6.13 PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP) 6.13.1 The PCP shall be approved by the Commission prior to implementation.
6.13.2 Licensee-initiated changes to the PCP:
a.

1)
A summary of the evaluation that led to the determination that the change could be made in accordance with 10 CFR Part 50.59; 2)
Sufficient detailed information to totally support the reason for the change without benefit of additional or supplemental information; 3)
A detailed description of the equipment, components, and processess involved and the interfaces with other plant-c systems; 4)
An cvaluation Of the change, which shows the predicted releases of radioactive materials in liquid and gaseous effluents and/or quantity of solid waste that differ from those previously predicted in the License application and amendments thereto; 5)
An evaluation of the change, which shows expected maximum exposures to individual in the UNRESTRICTED AREA and to the general population that differ from those previously estimated in tne License application and amendments thereto; 6)
A comparison of the predicted releases of radioactive materials, in liquid and gaseous effluents and in solid waste, to the actual releases for the period prior to when the changes are to be made; 7)
An estimate of the exposure to plant operating personnel as a result of the change; and 8)
