We are working on INPO AFI responses would like to see what other
utilities are using for stay time requirements.

 

Browns Ferry Currently uses the following:

________________________________

Entry into areas which have radiation dose rates such that an individual
may receive greater than 1,000 mrem in one hour as measured at 30
centimeters from the source or surface the radiation penetrates, but
less than VHRA dose rates, requires an approved RWP which specifies the
dose rates in the work area(s) and maximum allowable stay time(s) for
individuals in the area.

 

Continuous coverage or remote surveillance (such as a closed circuit TV)
by RP field operations personnel responsible for positive exposure
control of the activities being performed in the area may be substituted
for the RWP stay time requirement except when:

 

500 mrem/entry exposure is expected

 

Or

 

Work area dose rates (at 30 cm) are greater than 1.5 Rem/hour.
