Attached are plant summaries (Tables I-III). Table IV lists all excursions at or above 100 ppm VCM including the number of incidents. Table V shows the 1WA by job classification calculated from the data in Tables I-III. Graph #1 shows the percentage of readings above 1 and 5 ppm VCM for the Reactor Building. Graph #2 shows the weekly averages for the Reactor Building and the Pilot Plant. Also attached is an analysis of the plant data by W,, Du Bord.
The Plant was in operation seven days for this report period running at about 100% utilization. The four G,, Co 's were on computer control.

All readings greater than or equal to 100 ppm VCM are tabulated in Table IV. Five readings at or above 100 ppm occurred this report period reflecting four separate incidents. Three incidents occurred outside the Reactor Building affecting the VCM day tank area. No incidents occurred inside the Reactor Building. One incident occurred in the Recovery Compressor Room affecting #1 and #2 recovery systems. No incidents occurred in the Pilot Plant or in the General Area during this report period.
