iews, the description of the operational program and proposed implementation milestone for the RETS/SREC, ODCM and REMP aspects of the Process and Effluent Monitoring and Sampling Program are reviewed in accordance with 10 CFR 20.1301 and 20.13.2, 10 CFR 50.34a, 10 CFR 50.36a, and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I, Section II and IV. Its implementation is required by a license condition. Technical Rationale The technical rationale for application of these acceptance criteria to the areas of review addressed by this SRP section is discussed in the following paragraphs: 1. 10 CFR 20.1302 specifies, in part, that licensees conduct surveys of radiation levels in unrestricted and controlled areas and radioactive materials in effluents released to unrestricted and controlled areas to demonstrate compliance with the radioactive dose limits contained in 10 CFR 20.1301 applicable to members of the public. 10 CFR 20.1302 relates to the manner in which compliance with dose limits to individual members of the public will be achieved. This section specifies that surveys of radiation levels are conducted to demonstrate compliance with the dose limits specified in 11.5-10 Revision 4 - March 2007 10 CFR 20.1301. These surveys use the equipment that constitutes the process and effluent radiological monitoring instrumentation and sampling systems. Regulatory Guides 1.21, 1.33, and 4.15, as well as industry standards (i.e., ANSI N42.18-2004 and ANSI/HPS N13.1-1999) provide additional guidance on measuring, evaluating, and reporting the results of surveys. Meeting the above requirements provides reasonable assurance that the dose limits to individual members of the public specified in 10 CFR 20.1301 and 10 CFR 20.1301(e) will not be exceeded. The review conducted in this SRP section, with supporting information drawn from SRP Sections 11.2, 11.3, and 11.4, evaluates the method used to demonstrate compliance with these requirements. 2. 10 CFR 50.34a specifies that an application to construct
