Subject: Powernet: ALARA Benchmarking Questions


Good Afternoon Everyone

Fermi-2 would like assistance with the following questions:

What is your routine survey frequency for the general areas of the following

Turbine Building  (Quarterly - radiation and contamination)
Reactor Building  (Weekly - radiation and contamination)
Auxiliary Building (Monthly - radiation.  Weekly - contamination)


Are ARMs used to supplement the survey frequency?  Yes.


What is the primary driver for the use of remote monitoring ( Procedurally and 
/or the RWP, Dose for the job or to reduce access to HRA or LHRA areas)?  The 
use of remote monitoring was part of the justification for reducing the 
frequency of routine radiation surveys.  This was based on risk, ALARA, 
historical data, etc.


What equipment is available to perform remote monitoring (Crash carts with 
video communications, telemetry or centralized monitoring station)?
Crash carts set up with remote monitoring equipment, suitcase RMS units, 
centralized and remote monitoring, etc....

Is there an issue with "Free Air" cables at your facility  Yes.


What are your primary ALARA metrics?  Not sure what you are looking for in this 
question.

Thank you for your assistance
