Acknowledging that "Issuing DLRs to workers" or "Performing Routine DLR Exchanges" are not tasks contained in ACAD 93-008, I'd appreciate your response to this quick survey: Do you have an Admin resource and/or RP/HP Tech in Dosimetry? Bargaining unit clerk issues dosimetry and performs just about any other dosimetry function that would not be considered tech work. Baseline screenings are performed at the control point by techs. A contract tech is hired for outage assistance. The dosimetry supervisor and department HP positions have been left vacant and dosimetry oversight is now only provided by the radiological operations superintendent. Do you have a qualification similar to, "Perform initial issue of DLRs to workers" (this does not include special/extremity dosimeters)? No, but I believe there may have been a Job Familiarization Guide in the past. Do you have a qualification similar to, "Prepare for/perform routine DLR Exchange"? Same as above. If you have a specific qualification to perform such tasks, are they obtained via OJT/TPE, Lab Eval, Simple Task (no formal qual required)? N/A Cook "has always" performed OJT/TPE for these two tasks, but we are considering making them a Lab Eval or even just a simple task, acknowledging that we have a pretty detailed procedure for both activities. I'm also interested in the responses provided. If any additional responses are provided it would be valuable to include high level info on the scope of the program. For example, Susquehanna currently issues semi-annual dosimetry to approximately 1300 individuals, and typically brings in around 1800 additional badged workers for spring outages. Environmental dosimeter exchange is performed quarterly. I appreciate your replies, [cid:image001.png@01D52D00.A20A94B0] ATTENTION: This email originated from outside of the organization.

Re: [Powernet] Quick Initial DLR Issue & DLR Exchange survey
Good benchmarking question. Thanks for posting it. Below is TVA- Sequoyah's answer, and a little more as I couldn't resist. From: Powernet On Behalf Of Dave Raye via Powernet Sent: Wednesday, June 26, 2019 12:41 PM To: 'powernet@hpspowernet.org' Cc: Dave Raye Subject: [Powernet] Quick Initial DLR Issue & DLR Exchange survey TVA External Message. Please use caution when opening. Hello all, I have seen in a recent, related inquiry that a number of sites have an "Clerk/Admin" as their Dosimetry Resource, as does DC Cook. Acknowledging that "Issuing DLRs to workers" or "Performing Routine DLR Exchanges" are not tasks contained in ACAD 93-008, I'd appreciate your response to this quick survey: Do you have an Admin resource and/or RP/HP Tech in Dosimetry? RP Technician (2 assigned) at the Sequoyah and Watts Bar sites; Browns Ferry has in addition a Health Physicist also assigned to Dosimetry. Do you have a qualification similar to, "Perform initial issue of DLRs to workers" (this does not include special/extremity dosimeters)? Yes, we have a specific qualification that is similar, RPQ006.020 Issue Primary Dosimetry Do you have a qualification similar to, "Prepare for/perform routine DLR Exchange"? No, we do not have a qualification for DLR exchange. Here is a list of the Dosimetry qualifications: RPQ006.020 Issue Primary Dosimetry RPQ006.290 WBC Required Checks RPQ006.300 Operate WBC RPQ006.330 Request Bioassay sample RPQ006.500 Issue Special Dosimetry RPQ006.700 Process Exposure History Forms RPQ006.770 Use of OSL Dosimetry reader RPQ012.140 Perform Respiratory Mask Fit RPQ014.510 Process Pregnancy Declaration If you have a specific qualification to perform such tasks, are they obtained via OJT/TPE, Lab Eval, Simple Task (no formal qual required)? The qualifications include classroom training, OJT/TPE. Cook "has always" performed OJT/TPE for these two tasks, but we are considering making them a Lab Eval or even just a simple task, acknowledging that we have a pretty detailed procedure for both activities. The DNP initiates missed the specialty qualifications for Dosimetry, Instrumentation, and Respiratory. In fact a RPT that has been specialized for any significant time will have a difficult time being included in the list of RPTs available to work, because they may not have the high risk work coverage qualification, of when they had it, it was so long ago that it doesn't count. For outages, we have to rely on TVA retires to fill these positions, or we have to bring in very qualified and experienced RPTs in Dosimetry functions, but spend 2 to 3 weeks to complete the OJT / TPE and that is only if we are able to get some record of similar class room work being completed. But heck that is where the industry is going isn't it. I had a site VP tell me a few years ago when the Dosimetry group was gutted to two technicians that we didn't need even the two technicians. We only needed to contract a RPT to come in twice a year to issue dosimetry for a 3 week period or total of 6 weeks. He told me that was how a plant he visited did it. I remember telling him I didn't see how that was possible. I was invited to that plant a few months later and asked and was shown that what this VP believed was completely inaccurate, as the Dosimetry staff at that plant was actually 9 individuals. I could see how that VP came to that conclusion as what workers and visitors saw was really one room. They didn't see what work was done across the hall behind closed doors. That's the value in benchmarking, you can see what you want to see. As we all know Dose and reporting of Dose makes up close to ½ to 2/3 of the regulations. I like seeing where Cook is headed. I am mentioned going that direction within TVA, but so far no one is receptive to that type of change yet.
