Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0400-20-05-.70 - GENERAL SURVEY AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
(1) Each
licensee and registrant shall make or cause to be made, surveys of areas,
including the subsurface that:
(a) May be
necessary for the licensee or registrant to comply with the standards in this
chapter; and
(b) Are reasonable
under the circumstances to evaluate:
1. The
magnitude and extent of radiation levels;
2. Concentrations or quantities of residual
radioactivity; and
3. The potential
radiological hazards of the radiation levels and residual radioactivity
detected.
(2)
Notwithstanding the requirements in Rule
0400-20-05-.132, records from
surveys describing the location and amount of subsurface residual radioactivity
identified at the sire must be kept with records important for decommissioning,
and such records must be retained in accordance with Rule
0400-20-10-.26 as
applicable.
(3) The licensee or
registrant shall ensure that instruments and equipment used for quantitative
radiation measurements (e.g., dose rate and effluent monitoring) are calibrated
periodically for the radiation measured.
(4) Except for direct and indirect reading
pocket ionization chambers and those dosimeters used to measure the dose to the
extremities, all personnel dosimeters for determining the dose and used to
comply with these standards or with conditions specified in a license or
registration shall be processed and evaluated by a dosimetry processor:
(a) Holding current personnel dosimetry
accreditation from the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program
(NVLAP) of the National Institute of Standards and Technology; and
(b) Approved for processing and evaluating
dosimeters exposed to the type of radiation(s) included in the NVLAP program
that most closely approximates the type of radiation(s) being monitored by the
dosimeter.
