> I would like have answers to the following questions regarding utility
> RETS Programs:
> 
> 
> 1)	Does you facility use Old10CFR20 values (MPCs) or new 10CFR20 values
> (ECLs) for liquid effluents in your Off-Site Dose 	Calculation Manual
> (ODCM)?
> 2)	Did your facility formally document justification to the NRC for
> maintaining old values?
> 3)	Did you document internally?
> 4)	Has your utility viewed NUMARC documents 93-187, 93-99, and NRC
> Draft Generic Letter (93-) "Guidance for Modification of 	Technical
> Specifications to Reflect Revisions to 10CFR Part20" as the basis for your
> maintaining/changing ODCM effluent units? 
> 
> It is recognized that the NRC has not provided a formal generic letter
> regarding the conversion to new10CFR20 values.  The only documents I have
> reviewed is  a generic draft letter from the NRC from 1993 along with
> NUMARC documents addressing the same issues.  If you know of any other
> existing documents associated with these issues, I would appreciate that
> information.
