A quick benchmark concerning alpha contamination and considering it to be 
countable as a PCE.


*         Does anyone consider alpha contamination to be a PCE when found in 
any of the locations we would consider it to be one for a beta-gamma emitter?

*         If not all similar locations, which one(s), like the face or within 
the area normally considered within the sealing surface of a full-face 
respirator?

*         What contamination levels are equivalent to which EPRI Level and the 
basis for said level?

*         If it is not a PCE, what drives you to take actions to ensure you 
review worker practices and/or PCE requirements etc. so you can correct 
whatever caused the contamination where it was not expected?





Thanks. Your quick response is appreciated.
