Sorry for having to repost, I forgot to include the Subject Lot of great benchmarks on Powernet right now, here's another. Good friend of mine needs help with his, please help if you can.......thanks!
> RCA Tool Control and Decontamination of Tools 1. What type of decontamination facility is used for tool decontamination? i.e. Kelly enclosure type building, stainless steel decon room/trailer, or other type decon facility. 2. What types of tools are most frequently released from the RCA? (I&C instruments/torque wrenches or gauges, Specialty tools, etc.) 3. What are the fixed and smearable limits for tools and equipment maintained in the RCA? How are tools surveyed for fixed contamination prior to their return to the RCA Tool Room - i.e. SAM-9, Cronos-4, frisked, or other method? Is there a different fixed contamination limit for Containment vs. Auxiliary Building tools? 4. For Tools used during refueling outages, are they just stored for the next outage or are they deconned and put back into use in the RCA? If stored, how are the tools and equipment stored? 5. How are safety harnesses (i.e., fall protection) controlled? Does the plant designate specific harnesses to be used in "contaminated" areas and different harnesses for "clean" areas? What are the contamination limits (fixed and loose as applicable) for harnesses used in clean and contaminated areas? 6. What process is used for tool decon? Hand decon, Ultra-sonic sink, plas-blast or grit blast unit, or pressure washers? 7. Are Advanced Radworkers (ARWs) allowed to survey and release tools and equipment, or only RP Technicians? 7. Contaminated Calibrated tools - how are they stored? Is there a "hot" calibration lab in the RCA? Does the plant conditionally release "fixed" contaminated calibrated tools from the RCA to be re-calibrated in the protected area?
