Dear Mr. Johnson:
i In reply to your public announcement dated 11 November 1958 in regard to the modification of regulations of 100FR Part 70, we are pleased to outline our plans for compliance.
We have for sometime prior to this notification been of the opinion that for our own protection a system should be installed in our Hematite, Missouri plant to warm of excessive radiation which might originate from any source.
Our plans, therefore, are nearing completion for the purchase and installation of such a system. We modified regulations of 10 CFR Part 20 will be of great assistance to us in the final adoption of our program.
We program will include the following points:
(1) Purchase and installation of sufficient radiation detector units to give adequate overall plant protection (Current plans are for the purchase of five such detection units located well within the distances specified in the new 10 CFR Part 70 regulations.
(2) We purchase and installation of an audib]e alarm system directly connected to the radiation detector instruments.
The instruments will be in parallel so that the alarm will sound regardless of what area of the plant the inci-dont may occur.
~
.(3) We purchase of high level survey instruments for re-entry and location of
=the troubla point.
