i 15.6.11 RADIATION PROTECTION PROGRAM Specific.ation Radiological control procedures shall be written and made available to all station personnel, and shall state permissible radiation exposure levels. The radiation protection program shall meet the requirements of 10 CFR 20.
Paraaraoh 20.1601 - Control of Access to Hiah Radiation Areas As provided in paragraph 20.1601(c) of 10 CFR Part 20, the following controls shall be applied to high radiation areas in place of the controls required by paragraph 20.1601(a) and
(
(b) of 10 CFR Part 20:
]
High Radiation Areas with Dose Rates Not Exceeding 1.0 rem / hour at 30 Centimeters from the Radiation Source or from Any Surface Penetrated by the Radiation; a.
Each entryway to such an area shall be barricaded and conspicuously posted as a high radiation area. Such barricades may be opened as necessary to permit entry or exit of personnel or equipment.
b.
Access to, and activities in, each such area shall be controlled by means of Radiation Work Permit (RWP) or equivalent that includes specification of radiation dose rates in the immediate work area (s) and other appropriate radiation protection equipment and measures.
c.
Individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures (e.g., health physics technicians) and personnel continuously escorted by such individuals may be exempted from the requirement for an RWP or equivalent while performing their assigned duties provided that they are following plant radiation protection procedures for entry to, exit from, and work in such area.
d.
Each individual or group entering such an area shall possess:
1.
A radiation monitoring device that continuously displays radiation dose rates in the area; or 2.
A radiation monitoring device that continuously integrates the radiation i
dose rates in the area and alarms when the device's dose alarm setpoint is reached, with an appropriate alarm setpoint, or 3.
A radiation monitoring device that continuously transmits dose rate i
l and cumulative dose to a remote receiver monitored by radiation l
l protection personnel responsible for controlling personnel radiation exposure within the area, or 15.6.11-1 Unit 1 - Amendment No. 60,68,182 Unit 2 - Amendment No. 66,78,186 l
.o 4.
A self-reading dosimeter (e.g., pocket ionization chamber or electronic dosimeter) and, (i)
Be under the surveillance, as specified in the RWP or equivalent, while in the area, of an individual qualified in radiation protection procedures, equipped with a radiation monitoring device that continuously displays radiation dose rates in the area; who is responsible for controlling personnel exposure within the area, or (ii)
Be under the surveillance as specified in the RWP or equivalent, while in the area, by means of closed circuit television, of personnel qualified in radiation protection procedures, responsible for controlling personnel radiation exposure in the area, and with the means to communicate with and control every individual in the area.
e.
Except for individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures, entry into such areas shall be made only after dose rates in the area have besa determined and entry personnel are knowledgeable of them.
High Radiation Areas with Dose Rates Greater than 1.0 rem / hour at 30 Centimeters from the Radiation Source or from Any Surface Penetrated by the Radiation, but Less than 500 rads / hour at 1 Meter from the Radiation Source or from Any Surface Penetrated by the Radiation:
a.
Each entryway to such an area shall be conspicuously posted as a high radiation area and shall be provided with a locked door or gate that prevents unauthorized entry, and, in addition:
1.
All such door and gate keys shall be maintained under the administrative control of the shift supervisor, radiation protection manager, or his or her designee.
2.
Doors and gates shall remain locked except during periods of personnel or equipment entry or exit.
b.
Access to, and activities in, each such area shall be controlled by means of l

'~
immediate work area (s) and other appropriate radiation protection equipment and measures.
c.
Individuals qualified in radiation protection procedures may be exempted from the requirement for an RWP or equivalent while performing radiation surveys in such areas provided that they are following plant radiation protection i

Unit 2 - Amendment No. 66,78,186
1 t
d.
Each individual or group entering such an area shall possess:
1.
A radiation monitoring device the continuously integrates the radiation rates in the area and. alarms when the device's dose alarm setpoint is reached, with an appropriate alarm setpoint, or 2.
A radiation monitoring device that continuously transmits dose rate J
and cumulative dose information to a remote receiver monitored by radiation protection personnel responsible for controlling personnel radiation exposure within the area with the means to communicate with and control every individual in the area, or 3.
A self-reading dosimeter (e.g., pocket ionization chamber or electronic dosimeter) and, (i)
Be under the surveillance, as specified in the RWP or equivalent, while in the area, of an individual qualified in radiation protection procedures, equipped with a radiation monitoring device that continuously displays radiation dose rates in the area; who is responsible for controlling personnel exposure within the area, or (ii)
Be under the surveillance as specified in the RWP or equivalent, while in the area, by means of closed circuit television, of personnel qualified in radiation protection procedures, responsible for controlling personnel radiation exposure in the area, and with the means to communicate with and control every individual in the area, or 4.
In those cases where options (2) and (3), above, are impractical or determined to be inconsistent with the "As Low As is Reasonably Achievable" principle, a radiation monitoring device that continuously displays radiation dose rates in the area.
e.
Except for individual qualified in radiation protection procedures, entry into such areas shall be made only after dose rates in the area have been determined and entry personnel are knowledgeable of them.
f.
Such individual areas that are within a larger area that is controlled as a high radiation area, where no enclosure exists for the purpose of locking and where no enclosure can reasonably be constructed around the individual area need not be controlled by a locked door or gate, but shall be barricaded and conspicuous, clearly visible flashing light shall be activated at the area as a waming device.
