Contrary to the above, on March 18, 1981, the licensee did not have procedures assilable to determine airborne lodine concentration.
RESPONSE
Investigation into the Maine Yankee procedures for determining aircorn iodine cencentration has shown that althougn appropriate precedures and, equipment for accurately determining aircorne iodine concentration via charcoal absorption were in place prior to January 1,1981, these procecures may have been deficient relative to instructing inexperienced personnel in the proper technicues for cbtaining samples, prior to analysis.
These deficiencies have been identified, and improved procedures snall be developed by August 1,1981.
M: trust this information is satisfactory. Should you have any further cuestions, please feel free to contact us.
