1.  What does your site consider a positive WBC? BFN currently considers a 
bioassay result (in vitro or diagnostic in vivo) that indicates the presence of 
licensed material in a quantity greater than minimum detectable activity (MDA) 
for the counter being used as positive. SAME


  1.  What level positive WBC does your site document a condition report (CR)? 
BFN currently documents a CR anytime we have a positive WBC greater than the 
MDA for the counter being used.  SAME



  1.  What information do you record for level 1 PCE due to human performance 
issues? BFN currently documents a CR and documents survey results on NISP-RP-06 
Attachment 4 Personnel Contamination Event Log  We only use the log for Level 1 
PCEs. BUT we do continue to have outage goals related to level 1 PCEs.



  1.  What is your sites threshold for a PCE requiring skin dose calculations?

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Powernet] Whole Body Count/PCE Benchmark

I have been asked to perform a benchmark on whole body counts (WBC), level 1 
personnel contamination events (PCE), and skin dose calculation thresholds. I 
have included what BFN is currently practicing.

  1.  What is your sites threshold for a PCE requiring skin dose calculations? 
BFN currently performs a dose calculation if the SDE or LDE dose is likely to 
exceed 100 mrem (or 10 mrem for DDE) which corresponds to the following values:
