Subject: Powernet: LHRA door check

Browns Ferry currently conducts a weekly walk down of our Locked High Radiation 
Area Doors.  Based upon the use of secondary locking devices and second party 
checks when securing an area we are looking at reducing this frequency to 
biweekly.  What frequency do you check your locked high rad doors?  Being a 3 
unit BWR, we have about 100 of these doors so this can be a dose saving measure.
