At Browns Ferry we do not have a Tennelec, but do require the use of a scaler
to count smears on items for free release. You cannot use a frisker to count
those smears here

The NRC guidance for Power Reactor licensees may be found in NRC IE Circular
81-07. This does not define a release level but does tell you how hard you are
required to look. Braidwood uses automated monitors for most items but we do
allow for two ANSI qualified RPTs to perform direct frisks
