The Reactor Building showed 7 excursions ^ 25 ppm with 1 reading y 100 ppm.
The Pilot Plant showed 11 excursions 'Y 25 ppm with 1 reading y 100 ppm.
The General Area showed 4 excursions V 25 ppm with no readings Y100 ppm.
All readings greater than or equal to 100 ppm are tabulated in Table IV. Nine readings at or above 100 ppm occurred during this report period reflecting eight separate incidents. Three incidents occurred in the Reactor Building affecting the panel board, center aisle and the weigh tank area. Two incidents occurred in the Pilot Plant affecting B&C, E and F reactors. The remaining three incidents occurred at the parshall flume and lift station areas.
