Powernet: Quick posting benchmark...

[Jeff . Carey]

At SONGS, we have an arrangement of posting phrases (RA,RMA, REP (RWP) Required, etc...) at our RCA boundary. We also have several satellite RMA's and RCA's at our site. In some cases, for satellite area's the signage can read the same, whether RMA or RCA.

At your site do you use specific signage inserts that have the words "Radiologically Controlled Area" at your RCA boundary, or do you use some combination of other phrases (such as Radiation Area, Rad. Materials Area, RWP Required, etc...)?

If you don't have specific verbiage (RCA) on your signs demarking a satellite RCA boundary how do you post to differentiate between a satellite RCA and a satellite RMA to alert workers as to what type of area they may be entering?
