Palo Verde provides the following response:
· Not allowed to be dropped / placed / stored on the floor.
· Surveyed after each use and hung on designated racks. If a safety harnesses exceeding 60k dpm direct frisk they are removed from service and treated as radioactive waste.
· Once a Safety harnesses is used in an HCAs it cannot be used in a lower contamination area again.
