Interoffice Communication To A. H. Sather From J. V. Uptain-""^ Date June 21, 1978 Subject VCM DOSIMETRY PLAN CHANGES Attached axe my recommendations for reducing plant VCM dosimetry (See Table II). These recommendations are based on: 1. The results of all dosimetry (361 samples) from 3/1/78 through 5/31/78. All samples were taken using the REAL "Minimonitor" and represent conditions with both reactor modules in operation. 2. A purely subjective assessment of relative exposure risks, irrespective of sampling results, ampling by 28%, A jf Attachments c: GGD, DWF, JAF, DSC, Department Heads VAB.0001053590 TABLE I SUMMARY OF VCM DOSIMETRY RESULTS MARCH 1, 1978 - MAY 31, 1978 Workforce Group No. Samples I.
