Attached are area summaries, summaries of excursions above 1, 5, 25 and 100 ppm VCM and a listing of all excursions observed at or above 100 ppm VCM. Monitoring points RE #9 and #20 remained in special service during this report period.
The plant was in operation seven days for this report period running at about 91% utilization. Hie following summaries are taken from a tabulation of 25% of the data or one set of readings per hour.
The Reactor Building showed 359 readings> 1 ppm, 22 excursions >25 ppm and no readings >100 ppm.
The Pilot Plant showed 334 readings> 1 ppm, 4 excursions 7 25 ppm and no readings >100 ppm.
The General Area showed 139 readings 7 1 ppm, 11 excursions 7 25 ppm and 1 reading >100 ppm.
The Lift Station showed 37 readings >1 ppm and no excursions 7 25 ppm.
The Parshall Flume showed 53 readings >1 ppm and no excursions > 25 ppm.
All readings greater than or equal to 100 ppm are tabulated in Table XV. Seven readings at or above 100 ppm occurred during this report period reflecting seven separate incidents. Two incidents occurred in the Reactor Building affecting stripper #1 platform and the panel board. One incident occurred in the Pilot Plant at "E" reactor. The remaining four incidents occurred in the General Area atr the VCM pumps in the tank farm and at the tank car unloading platform.
