Content:
ring systems are in conformance with those portions of 10 CFR Parts 20.201, 50.34, and 70.24, as well as Regulatory Guides 1.97, 8.2, and 8.8, and ANSI Standard 13.1, related to airborne radioactivity monitoring. The objective of the applicant's accident radiation monitoring system is to provide the capability to assess the radiation hazard in areas which may be occupied during the course of an accident. The installed instruments have emergency power supplies; and the portable instruments are placed to be readily accessible to personnel responding to an emergency. The systems are designed for use in the event of an accident in terms of (1) usable instrument range, and (2) the environment the instrument can withstand, and meeting the provisions of Section II.F.1 of NUREG-0718 and 0737 and Regulatory Guide 1.97. Instrumentation to monitor for accidental criticality meets the criteria of 10 CFR Part 20.24(a)(1), Regulatory Guide 8.12, and ANSI Standard N16.2, and is acceptable. The applicant provided a dose assessment, as described in Regulatory Guide 8.19, including a completed summary table of occupational radiation exposure estimates, sufficient detail to explain how the assessment process was performed, a systematic process for considering and evaluating dose-reducing changes in design and operations as part of the comprehensive ongoing design review, and a record of the review procedures, documentation requirements, and identifica- tion of principle ALARA-related changes resulting from the dose assessment, which is acceptable. V. IMPLEMENTATION The following is intended to provide guidance to applicants and licensees regarding the NRC staff's plans for using this SRP section. Except in those cases in which the applicant proposes an acceptable alternative method for complying with specified portions of the Commission's regulations, the method described herein will be used by the staff in its evaluation of conformance with Commission regulations.
