[Lawrence Bonker <labonker@tol-ed.com>]

Response to your questions:
1) Does your plant have an access category for visitors/vendors? If so.. 
Yes, as visitors (security designation),, RP definitions are: as visitor with either no CA and no HRA access (less than 2 hours, EAD only) or as visitors with CA/HRA access with TLD and EAD. Both cases accompanied by qualified worker on a current RWP.

(2) Can the visitor/vendor perform work in non-posted areas? 
Yes (and in posted areas,,,, such as CTMT)

(3) Is the visitor/vendor escorted? 
Yes, at all times by qualified Radiation Worker

(4) What is the minimum training needed for access to the RRA? 
Permission by RP Manager and training by RP Supervisor in accordance with procedure attachment.

(5) What type of dosimetry and what limits are given to the visitor/vendor? 
Less than 2 hours and no CA and no HRA === EAD only
Anything else === EAD and TLD

Subject: 	Survey for Power Reactor RADSAFE members:


Fermi 2 is conducting a survey of Power Reactor facilities concerning the 
access of visitors into their Radiological Restricted Areas (RRA).  We are 
looking at revising our procedures for the access of visitors/vendors into the 
RRA to perform work in non-posted areas.  Our present policy is that an 
individual must have "Full Radworker" training to perform any work in the RRA. 
 The survey questions are as follows: 
 
(1) Does your plant have an access category for visitors/vendors? If so.. 
(2) Can the visitor/vendor perform work in non-posted areas? 
(3) Is the visitor/vendor escorted? 
(4) What is the minimum training needed for access to the RRA? 
(5) What type of dosimetry and what limits are given to the visitor/vendor? 
(6) Is the visitor/vendor given initial and exit whole body counts? 
 
Please send replies to my E-mail list below.  If possible please provide the 
name of your plant and an E-mail address in case I have additional questions.   
 
Thank you in advance,
