. ] to 50 mrems/hr may temporarily replace fixed area monitors described above provided that the required alarms are operational.,

Portable Monitors: During reactor operation, operable portable survey instruments shall be readily available to the reactor operator for measuring beta-gama exposure rates in the range 1.0 mrems/hr to 50 rems /hr, and fast plus thermal neutron dose rates from 0.04 to 1,000 mrems/hr. One or more portable survey instruments for measuring beta-gamma exposure rates in the range 10 mrems/hr to 50 rems /hr will be kept available to the reactor staff in an external location (normally the security office) to facilitate obtaining radiation readings if a reactor radiation alarm should be

. activated.
