Davis-Besse does not require a source check of an instrument due to its use for downposting. In use instruments are source checked daily and would have an acceptable response check prior to use and after return, but not a source check.

Noble Manager - Radiation Protection Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (419) 321-7780 office (419) 304-0068 cell From: John Sukosky <[email protected]> To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Cc: Duane Boone <[email protected]> Date: 04/09/2012 11:09 AM Subject: Powernet: Quick Posting Question Sent by: [email protected] Surry Power Station would like to know if you require survey instruments used to down post High Radiation Areas to be source checked after the down posting survey is completed? At Surry, survey instruments used to down post HRA are source checked after the down posting survey is completed. Thanks, John M.

Under these conditions Palo Verde would convene an ALARA Committee meeting and revise the outage dose goal upward; conversely, if conditions were much lower than anticipated we would use the same process to lower the goal. Fortunately, we have done the latter numerous times. The upward revision based on emergent work / scope change is also approved by the ALARA Committee as a stretch goal (amount estimated above the original estimate). While the final reported RFO dose would include all work, the ALARA incentives offered to employees are based on the original dose estimation; thereby. not penalizing (and disincentivizing) them because of conditions beyond their control. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Thursday, February 23, 2012 1:05 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Powernet: Quick Question (Outage Dose Goal Revision?) At SONGS, the outage dose goal is set prior to the outage like all sites. At the onset of the outage, we had higher than expected dose rates (crud burst with new generators) and revised our outage dose goal accordingly. Would your site have revised the outage goal is similar event occurred? In addition, during the outage it has been determined that additional emergent work will be required to support increased inspections on our steam generators which is dose impacting. Would your site revise your outage dose goal a second time based upon the increased emergent work expected? Or would your site maintain your revised dose goal as is and track the emergent dose as separate goal?
