CHAR I I
present), or in the unrestricted area would be detected and would initiate
appropriate annunciation or action. The reviewer should coordinate this review
with the Chapter 7 review and should evaluate the design of the radiation
instrumentation systems used for radiation monitoring and dosimetly to verfy
compliance with the acceptance criteria. The reviewer should also verify that these
radiation monitors and alarm systems will be maintained, operated, calibiated, and
subjected to surveillance in compliance with the appropriate standards and are
addressed in the technical specifications.
The reviewer should confirm that the facility warning and annunciator systems are
designed to alert personnel to a radiological hazard or abnormal condition in
sufficient time to enable them to respond in a planned appropriate manner. The
reviewer should also confirm that the interface between the radiation monitoring
system and the engineered safety features (as discussed in Chapter 6) and the
discussion of the radiation monitoring system in the emergency plan are
appropriate.
Evaluation Findings
This section of the SAR should contain sufficient information to support the
following type of conclusion, which will be included in the staffs safety evaluation
report:
* The staff has reviewed the design of radiation monitoring and sampling
provisions at the facility. The fixed and portable equipment used for
radiation monitoring and sampling inside the facility is selected, located,
calibrated, tested, and maintained in accordance with guidance contained in
recognized national standards and the manufacturers' instructions, and with
applicable regulations. The methods and bases of procedures used to
determine the placement of the equipment, the circumstances under which
the equipment is used, and the selection of the equipment function and
sensitivity are appropriate to the facility, and give reasonable assurance that
appropriate types of radiation in significant intensities will be detected,
monitored, and sampled consistent with 10 CFR Part 20 requirements and
the facility ALARA program
11.1.5 Radiation Exposure Control and Dosimetry
Areas of Review
The reviewer should verify that the applicant submitted (1) the design bases for the
equipment and procedures utilized for controlling radiation exposures to personnel
and releases of radioactive materials from the facility and (2) dosimetry and
