Unit 3 was at the minimum controlled power level and Unit 4 was at the power
MWe. The event is
to related equipment located

area controlled
and which is periodically involved in the process. As a result of leak from the "dirty" condensate tank (specific activity: 2x10(-5) Ci/1) into some working 400 m3 of condensate via penetrations got
area the controlled
causing
situation radiation zooms of deterioration with doserates up to 3
and superficial beta-activity up
5x10(3) beta-particles/cm2.min which exceeds the NRE-76/87 Code standard for controlled area (the limit is 2x10(3) beta-particles/cm2.min). Small amount of water (3-5 m3) also got into the attended have been
to
mcR/s
taken to decontaminate the

corridors. Actions affected locations.
Reactor safety system activation was not required. Activity releases to
