Linda ,

You are correct,
The question was focused on the total site Record dose versus the total site 
estimated dose for a wear period.  What is considered unacceptable?

There are evaluations done, but mostly informally.

Hi,

If I think I understand your question, the answer for Diablo Canyon is yes, but 
only informally.

As part of my review of the ED-TLD comparisons for each wear period I also look 
at the aggregate total period dose and ensure that it is reasonable compared to 
previous periods.  I also plot all data and that information is also very 
useful for total system health purposes.

Subject: Powernet: period TLD-ED dose discrepancy criteria

There are recommendations and criteria for performing investigations when an 
individual's TLD or DRD period results are greater than 100 mrem and differ by 
more than 25%.

Does your site have an acceptance criteria for total period dose for the site?


What difference between total site TLD and Estimated dose is considered 
unacceptable?


If so, what is the basis for your criteria?


Thank you,
