modesty use

["Becky Cheney" <beckycheney@alliant-energy.com>]

I am looking for information as to how modesty garments are used at various nuclear sites.

If your site uses them, I am interested in the following.



1a. Do you use them as "Modesty" garments to be worn into C-Zones under other protective clothing?



2. Are they ever used as protective clothing in C-Zones?  Like very low contaminated areas with booties and gloves. (reduced dress)?  Maybe certain job step the does not require the worker to do any major work.  For example take a reading from a instrument panel or such.  Or maybe a fire watch or confine space watch.



3a. If used under PC are they also removed at the SOP?

3b. If they are not removed at the SOP does the worker proceed to the PCM with them?



4. Are the modesty garments issued to the worker for them to maintain? (i.e. launder, etc)



5. Are they 100% cotton or polyblend?  If you use 100% cotton are there special requirements as to the weight?



6. Are they long sleeved.  If so, what is or is there a reason.

Thanks in advance
