| Title | Failure to Establish, Implement, and Maintain Appropriate Changes to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual For REMP Airborne Sampling |
| Description | The inspectors identified a non-cited violation of Technical Specification 5.5.1, Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). Specifically, when changes were made to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual in 1997, the licensee failed to establish an airborne sampling location for a community with the highest deposition factor (D/Q) for the site. As immediate corrective actions, the licensee evaluated their Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, evaluated the dose differential for the monitoring locations, and developed a plan to meet the environmental sampling requirements. The issue was documented in Condition Report CR-GGNS-2015-01835. The failure to establish an air sampling location in the vicinity of a community having the highest D/Q was a performance deficiency. The performance deficiency is more than minor, and therefore a finding, because it adversely affects the cornerstone objective to ensure adequate protection of public health and safety from exposure to radioactive materials released into the environment and public domain. Specifically, the failure to maintain the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual with appropriate airborne radionuclide sampling requirements adversely impacts the licensee's ability to validate offsite radiation dose assessments for members of the public under certain effluent release conditions. Using Inspection Manual Chapter 0609, Appendix D, dated February 12, 2008, Public Radiation Safety Significance Determination Process, the inspectors determined that the violation had very low safety significance because it involved the environmental monitoring program. This finding has a cross-cutting aspect in the procedure adherence component of the human performance area because licensee personnel failed to follow procedures when they determined the airborne sampling locations for the updated Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program [H.8]. |
