Content:
pliance with GDC 64 requires that means be provided to monitor the atmosphere in areas in which components are located that potentially contain radioactive fluids and gases that may be released during normal operation, anticipated operational occurrences, and during accidents. The subject of SRP 12.5 is the administrative controls that encompass the radiation protection program. The GDC 64 is applicable to SRP 12.5 because one part of the program is monitoring and surveillance of radiation areas during normal operation, anticipated operational occurrences, and following accidental releases of radioactive materials. Meeting the requirements of GDC 64 will provide a level of assurance that releases of radioactive materials to the environment will be detected and resultant exposures will be ALARA and not exceed the limits specified in 10 CFR Part 20.67 III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The information furnished in the SAR is reviewed for completeness in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.70. DRAFT Rev. 3 - April 1996 12.5-14 The reviewer evaluates the acceptability of areas discussed in subsection I by making the comparisons with criteria in the referenced regulations, regulatory guides, and industry standards. These can be summarized as follows: 1. The organizational position, functional responsibilities, experience, and qualifications of persons responsible for the radiation protection program. The plant organization, the functional responsibilities, and the qualifications of personnel are the primary responsibility of the Licensee Qualification BranchQuality Assurance and Maintenance Branch, HQMB, and Human Factors Assessment Branch, HHFB , and are reviewed as 68 part of Chapter 13. RABPERB reviews the radiation protection organization, function, 69 and personnel qualifications, in accordance with Regulatory Guides 1.8 and 8.8. 2. The equipment necessary to measure radioactivity, and radiation fields and exposures, including the number, type, range, sensitivity, calibration
