Fermi - posted instructions, periodic oversight, use baskets on stanchions
rather than placing ED on SOP.  Follow-up question, for those sites using a
smart turnstile after exiting high traffic CA, are you also using a smart
turnstile for entering that CA?

Subject: Powernet: Benchmark on EDs left at SOPs

A quick benchmark:

What are sites doing to make sure persons exiting high-traffic
Contamination Areas do not leave their Electronic Dosimeters at the
step-off pad or in their PCs?

Are sites using engineering controls such as smart turnstiles or swing-arms
so an ED is required to exit the area (outside the CA)?

EDs are required to log out of the RCA.  An ED left at the CA exit might
not be discovered until the worker is ready to log out of the RCA.  This
means they are not monitored by self-reading, alarming dosimeters during
transit to exit (or until discovery).  Also, the EDs might be mixed up in
plant laundry before it can be retrieved; their dose history for the that
RCA entry would therefore be lost.

Your response is appreciated.
