Similar to Ft. Calhoun....

Ft. Calhoun is about to start using passive monitoring.

1.      Does your plant use passive monitoring? Yes
2. Does your plant do any monitoring as part of in-processing and if so how do 
you document it?
All personnel pass through monitors when exiting (not on entry) the site 
protected area
3. What equipment do you use? (PM-7, GEM-5, etc.)
Currently we have PM-7s and two GEM-5 at one of two protected area exits (GEM 
5s to be installed after outage at other protected area exit)
4. Do you have a procedure that controls the requirements for passive 
monitoring and would you be willing to share?  Yes,  When person are processed 
in for exposure monitoring (issuance of TLDs) the passive monitor is used 
instead of a WBC and the no alarm condition is recorded on the TLD issuance 
form.  Additionally an alarm condition at the protected area (security 
points)are procedurally documented in the shift logs.
We have done a sensitivity study to validate that our setpoints are appropriate 
for the PM7's and will be done for the GEM 5 prior to installation of a GEM 5 
at the RCA exit point.

Fermi - GEM5, similar to Ginna, except we do not have PA entrance monitors, 
exit only

No procedure specific to passive monitoring. We have done a sensitivity study 
to validate that our setpoints are appropriate.
