MEMORANDUM OF APPRECIATION FOR CHRIS MCKENNEY'S CONTRIBUTION TO THE STANDARD REVIEW PLAN FOR DECOMMISSIONING j The purpose of this memorandum is to express our appreciation for the outstanding support provided by Chris McKenney, of your staff, in developing the NMSS Standard Review Plan (SRP) for decommissioning. Mr. McKenney's expertise and understanding of NRC's , requirements for complying with the ALARA provisions of 10 CFR Part 20.1401 and 1402, as  ! l well as his understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of modeling potential doses j j from residual radioactivity, were principal factors in the publication of two draft SRP modules within the timeframe established for the project.  ! Chris developed a through, well written SRP module addressing all aspects of complying with , the ALARA provisions of Part 20. His intimate understanding of national and irternational l radiation safety requirements, procedures and standards as well as his "get it done" attitude resulted in the publication of a superior SRP that clearly explained and provided compliance review procedures for this complicated topic. I Chris has also been the principal author of the SRP module on Dose Modeling and has developed an easy-to-read and understand module on using default values for decommissioning licensed facilities. Finally, Chris has been an enthusiastic member of several SRP workgroups and typically provides valuable insights on a wide variety of radiation safety, regulatory compliance and health physics issues. i l Please on our appreciation to Chris for a job "well dene."
