Palo Verde provides the following response: At Palo Verde dosimetry (TLD and electronic dosimeter) is worn in a Whirlpak bag while inside posted CAs. When workers undress / exit the Containment Building CA they place their dosimetry on a tray next w/ frisker to the SOP. For all other contaminated area exits, workers place their dosimetry on the SOP. After area exit, workers pick up their dosimetry and go to the nearest frisker to check for contamination. Workers either go thru a PCM (Containment Building exit) or perform a whole body frisk. In all situations, after exiting a contaminated area all workers are required to exit the RCA thru the PCM and portal monitors
