Re: decommissioning questionnaire

["Leon E Brown" <lebrown@cmsenergy.com>]

Bill,



At Big Rock Point we sent out questionnaires to both active and retired

employees as part of the scoping survey conducted in 1994 and as part of

the historical site assessment conducted in 1998.  We also hosted a retiree

luncheon in 1999 where past employees gathered together and discussed site

activities that may require further analysis and follow-up.  The questions

asked on the questionnaires were:



Do you have?



(Y or N)  Information on any radiological spill that occurred in what is

now considered a "clean" area of the site.



(Y or N)  Information on any hazardous chemical spills, such as acid,

caustic, PCB, gasoline, etc.



(Y or N)  Information on plant modifications that might require

reevaluation for radiologically clean status following the modification.

(such as the incinerator being removed)



(Y or N)  Information on any process that has been done in the past, that

might require reevaluation using today's standards. (such as prior

dredgings of the discharge canal)



(Y or N)  Information on "clean" areas that at one time were used to store

radioactive materials in the past.



(Y or N)  Information on radioactivity which was purposefully painted over

or covered with asphalt, concrete or other material to hold it in place,

whether in a "clean" area, or behind a boundary. (example would be old fuel

particles painted into the cracks along the rails on the refueling deck)



Please provide the WHAT, WHERE, WHEN & HOW MUCH on the subjects above or

any other you feel the decommissioning team needs to investigate further.



Hope the helps Bill,
