Eric,

We record this activity in dpm.  I have noticed over the years that there are 
numerous reporting conventions beyond cpm and dpm such as ccpm and ncpm.  It 
would be nice if there was standardized.

Seth.

Subject: Powernet: Recording contamination levels by direct frisk

Good Morning,
One of our HP Technicians noticed that the Nantel training says fixed/total 
contamination measurements by direct frisk should be recorded in net counts per 
minute (ncpm) . Our procedure currently says to record the measurements in 
disintegrations per minute (dpm). How does your plant document fixed/total 
contamination measurements by direct frisk on surveys?

ncpm?   or    dpm?

We noted that unfortunately this issue was not addressed in the INPO RP 
standard PP-06-01, Survey Map Conventions.

Thanks,  Eric
