Title10CFR20.1501(a) requires that each li … Title10CFR20.1501(a) requires that each licensee make or cause to be made surveys that may be necessary for the licensee to comply with the regulations in 10 CFR Part 20, and that are reasonable under the circumstances to evaluate the magnitude and extent of radiation levels, concentrations, or quantities of radioactive materials, and the potential radiological hazards that could be present.Contrary to the above, on August 7, 2017, the licensee failed to make necessary surveys of the Unit 2, 2T-15 tank room, that were reasonable to evaluate the magnitude and extent of radiation levels that could be present. Consequently, workers were allowed access to an area with dose rates up to 1000 millirem per hour at 30 cm without a proper briefing or oversight</br>17 Significance: Using NRC Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix C, Occupational Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process, the inspectors determined the finding to be of very low safety significance (Green) because: (1) it was not associated with as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA) planning or work controls; (2) there was no overexposure; (3) there was no substantial potential for an overexposure; and (4) the ability to assess dose was not compromised.Corrective Action Reference(s): CR-ANO-2-2017-04634 and CR-ANO-2-2017-0533CR-ANO-2-2017-04634 and CR-ANO-2-2017-0533 +
