13.4.7.4 If the air sampling program reveals work locations where <br />concentrations exceed 25 percent of the applicable standards, <br />the licensee shall establish a program to determine <br />time-weighted exposures of employees working at these locations <br />and establish procedures required to maintain employee exposures <br />as low as reasonably achievable. This program shall include <br />time-weighted studies which shall be done at least annually. <br />13.4.7.5 Uranium particulate air sampling, supplementing the routine air <br />sampling program, shall be conducted for non-routine cleanup and <br />maintenance activities which might create significant .additional <br />hazard in process areas, as appropriate. <br />13.4.7.6 The required in-plant airborne monitoring, shall be performed <br />under conditions typical of employee exposures.

Ln addition, the licensee shall perform documented spot <br />surveys for alpha contamination at least quarterly on workers <br />leaving the licensed facilities. Alpha contamination from the <br />licensed operations on skin or clothes exceeding <br />1000 dpm/100 cm2 shall require decontamination and an <br />investigation by the plant RSO as to the cause. The R:iO or <br />designee shall perform spot checks at least weekly on workers <br />leaving the change room. <br />13.4.8.2 The licensee shall conduct alpha contamination surveys of the <br />licensed facilities control rooms, lunch rooms, change rooms, <br />and offices at least weekly.
