Revision 1 reactor operation, _ fuel movement and handling _ off radioactive materials in the reactor building.

Objective:

To assure - that - radiation monitoring. equipment is available-for evaluation-of radiation conditions and - that the release of airborne radioactive material is maintained below the limits established in 10CFR20.

Specification:

1.

When the reactor is operating, gaseous. and particulate sampling of the stack effluent shall be monitored by a stack monitor with a readout _ in the control room.

The particulate activity monitor _ and the gaseous. activity monitor for the facility _

~

exhaust stack shall-be operating.

If either unit is' to be. out 'of service, either the reactor shall be shut down or the unit shall be replaced by one of comparable -

monitoring capability:

2.

When the reactor is operating,. at least one-constant -- air monitoring unit (Table - 3.2.11) located. in the. confinement-building shall. be-operating.

Temporary shutdown of: this unit shall be limited as in 3.7.1 above.

3.

The reactor shall-not be continuously

  • operated -without. a minimum of one area radiation monitor (Table 3.2.8) on the-experimental level of the reactor building and one area monitor (Table 3.2.6) over the reactor - pool (reactor. bridge) operating and capable - of _ warning personnel of high radiation : levels, 9709050096 970820 PDR ADOCK 05000193 Page 29 Admendment 24

l.

The reactor will be shut down-and reactor operations will - not be resumed until authorization is obtained from the NRC.'

j 2.

Immediate. notification shall be made to the NRC in accordance with paragraph 6.8 'of these specifications-c-

and to the-Director.

3.

A prompt report shall be prepared by the Senior Reactor Operator.

The report shall include. a complete analysis of the causes' of the event and the extent of possible damage together with recommendations to-prevent or' reduce the probability - of recurrence.

This report shall be submitted to the NRSC for review and appropriate

action, and a

suitable similar report shall be submitted to the NRC in accordance -with Paragraph 6.8 of these specifications and in support of-a request for. authorization for resumption of _ operations.

6.8 Reporting Requirements.

t In addition to the regt%ments of.-applicable regulations, all 4

written - reports shall be sent to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Attn:

Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555, with a _ copy to the Region I Administrator.

The written reports include - the following:

1.

Within-24 hours, a; report by telephone through - the NRC Operations Center, Washington, DC and the NRC Region 1:

a.

Any accidental-release of radioactivity to unrestricted areas above permissible

limits, whether or not the release resulted -in property damage, personal injury or exposure, b.

Any significant variation of measured values from a corresponding predicted or previously measured value of safety related operating characteristics occurring during operation of the reactor.
