RP-SA-102 — Containment Entries at Power
DRAFT — Reconstructed from exam materials
Purpose
Station administrative procedure governing containment entries while the reactor is at power (Modes 1-4). Establishes authorization requirements, dose control, and safety precautions for personnel entering containment during power operations.
Key Actions / Information
- Containment entry at power requires authorization from the Radiation Protection Supervisor (RPS) (outside of Operations chain of command).
- Used in conjunction with SC.SA-ST.ZZ-0001, Salem Containment Entries in Modes 1 through 4.
- Survey maps must be current and reviewed for gamma and neutron dose rates.
- Personnel dose calculations must account for both gamma and neutron contributions.
JPM — 2022 SRO-A4
Containment entry at power for 22 CFCU tag removal requires Radiation Protection Supervisor (RPS) authorization. Dose calculation from survey map: gamma = 5 mrem/hr, neutron = 40 mrem/hr. For 12-minute entry: gamma dose = 1 mrem, neutron dose = 8 mrem, total = 9 mrem per operator. Operator A (1992 mrem year-to-date + 9 = 2001 mrem) exceeds 2000 mrem Administrative Dose Control Limit.
