requests, etc., should be included in the work package if available.

3.4.2.12

When ALARA work planning is performed, special consideration should be

given to providing adequate detail to assist the craftsperson in performing the

task and reducing radiation exposure. Examples of items that should be

considered include the following:

reviewing previous work packages for lessons learned and effective

methods of performing the task

reviewing area photographs, if available, to identify problems that may

delay work

providing detailed tool lists

providing rigging and handling sketches

performing mockups or practice runs in non-radiation areas

using portable shielding to reduce radiation levels

dividing work into distinct tasks to be performed by different

individuals

holding an in-depth prejob briefing to ensure craftspersons have a

clear understanding of the task to be performed

improving access to the work through portable scaffolding or work

platforms

flagging work areas to control access

including ALARA personnel in the planning process

designing special tools that may reduce time to complete repair
