Monticello uses signage with the words, "Radiological Controlled Area", to 
identify the RCA boundary.

Subject: Powernet: Quick posting benchmark...

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?
