North Anna Power Station is reviewing their current practice of evaluating and 
accepting the identification of peaks in the various MCA's used at the site.  
This includes whole body counters (WBC) and count room MCAs.  We would 
appreciate information about your standards and bases for accepting or 
rejecting peaks that have a high relative error noted in the print outs from 
your software and how you came to and justify that particular standard.

Thanks in advance for responding directly to Rick Adams at 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>.  Upon request, I will make the final 
results available to anyone that requests and supplies information by November 
21, 2013.  An example is included below along with space that I'd appreciate 
you using so I can cut and paste the results.  If you do not want your plant 
named in what I share please say so.

Again thanks for your consideration.

When results are greater than 40%, then the results are provided to the 
Exposure Control Supervisor for evaluation.  60% is a hard standard that can be 
applied with no other input.
