There is very specific guidance for having the monitors at the exit to the protected area, but I cannot find anything for the entrance - I've spoken with both ANI & INPO on the topic. At FCS, we currently have them at both the entrance and exit to the protected area. Our reasons lie with both local and industry OE as well as a strong desire that we know about anything radioactive coming in the PA - from whatever source. Question: Does your site have gamma portal monitors at the protected area entrance & what is your reasoning?
