Special_ Interest Items Perf?rmance Appraisal Team Inspection Or Monday, March 3,1986, the Performance Appraisal Team (PAT) started the inspection in the design review area at the GPUN Corporate Head-quarters in Parsippany, New Jersey. The participating NRC staff members and contractors are listed in paragraph 6.
That group, plus the rest of the team, will be on site starting Monday, March 10, 1986.
5.
NRC Thermoluminescent Dosimeter (TLD) Special Monitoring Program for TMI I
The special NRC TLDs for TMI for the period February 6 - March 4,1986, were processed at the Region I TLD laboratory. The TLD readings are provided in the attached Table A.
The monitoring results indicate that the radiation levels at these monitoring locations remain at natural background levels. These readings can be expected to vary slightly from period to period due to variations in natural background, independent of releases from the plant.

mR
= millirem s.d. = standard deviation REMARKS:
Twenty-nine environmental (offsite) locations are monitored on a monthly exchange cycle using special TLDs for the TMI site.
Two control TLDs were stored in a 1/2" thick lead shield at the NRC TMI Office for two weeks. The baseline data for the environmental monitoring were calculated using the past ten quarters of monitoring results. All monitoring results indicate normal natural background radiation levels.
