I. Summary and Conclusions This report on the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program conducted for the Byron Nuclear Generating Station by Exelon covers the period 1 January 2014 through 31 December 2014. During that time period, 1,453 analyses were performed on 1,307 samples. In assessing all the data gathered for this report and comparing these results with preoperational data, it was concluded that the operation of BNGS had no adverse radiological impact on the environment.

Surface water samples were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta, tritium, Nickel-63 (Ni-63), and gamma emitting nuclides. Ground water samples were analyzed for concentrations of tritium and gamma emitting nuclides. Gross beta activities detected were consistent with those detected in previous years. All surface water samples analyzed for Ni-63 were less than the minimum detectable concentration. Tritium detected in downstream surface water was well below reportable limits and consistent with expected levels as a result of permitted liquid discharges.

Fish (commercially and/or recreationally important species) and sediment samples were analyzed for concentrations of Ni-63 and gamma emitting nuclides. Non-plant produced Cesium-137 activity was detected at both sediment locations. Low levels of Cs-137 are detected occasionally and are consistent with data from previous years and are not a result of plant effluents.

Air particulate samples were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta and gamma emitting nuclides. No fission or activation products were detected.

High sensitivity I-131 analyses were performed on weekly air samples. All results were less than the minimum detectable concentration for I-131.

Cow milk samples were analyzed for concentrations of I-131 and gamma emitting nuclides. All I-131 results were below the minimum detectable activity.

No fission or activation products were found.

Food Product samples were analyzed for concentrations of gamma emitting nuclides. No fission or activation products were detected.

Environmental gamma radiation measurements were performed quarterly using Optically Stimulated Luminescence Dosimeters (OSLD). Beginning in 2012, Exelon changed the type of dosimetry used for the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP). Optically Stimulated Luminescent Dosimetry were deployed and Thermoluminescent Dosimetry (TLD) were discontinued. This change may result in a step change in readings, up or down, depending on site characteristics. The relative comparison to control locations remains valid.

OSLD technology is different than that used in a TLD but has the same purpose (to measure direct radiation).

II. Introduction Byron Station, a two-unit PWR station, is located about two miles east of the Rock River and approximately three miles southwest of Byron in Ogle County, Illinois. The reactors are designed to have capacities of 1,268 and 1,241 MW gross, respectively. Unit One loaded fuel in November 1984 and went on line February 2, 1985. Unit Two went on line January 9, 1987. The station has been designed to keep releases to the environment at levels below those specified in the codes of federal regulations.

This report covers those analyses performed by Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE) and Landauer on samples collected during the period 1 January 2014 through 31 December 2014.

A. Objectives of the REMP The objectives of the REMP are to:

1. Provide data on measurable levels of radiation and radioactive materials in the site environs.
2. Evaluate the relationship between quantities of radioactive material released from the plant and resultant radiation doses to individuals from principal pathways of exposure.

B. Implementation of the Objectives The implementation of the objectives is accomplished by:

1. Identifying significant exposure pathways.
2. Establishing baseline radiological data of media within those pathways.
3. Continuously monitoring those media before and during Station operation to assess Station radiological effects (if any) on man and the environment.

III. Program Description A. Sample Collection Samples for the BNGS REMP were collected for Exelon Nuclear by Environmental Inc. (Midwest Labs). This section describes the general collection methods used by Environmental Inc. to obtain environmental Page 11 of 206

samples for the BNGS REMP in 2014. Sample locations and descriptions can be found in Table B-1 and Figures B-1 through B-4, Appendix B.

Aquatic Environment The aquatic environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on samples of surface water, ground water, fish and sediment.

Two gallon water samples were collected weekly from two surface water locations (BY-12 and BY-29 [Control location]) and quarterly from six ground water locations (BY-14-1, BY-18-1, BY-32, BY-35, BY-36 and BY-37). All samples were collected in new unused plastic bottles, which were rinsed with source water prior to collection. Fish samples comprising the flesh of freshwater drum, smallmouth bass, shorthead redhorse, channel catfish and common carp were collected semiannually at two locations, BY-29 (control) and BY-31. Sediment samples composed of recently deposited substrate were collected at two locations semiannually, BY-12 and BY-34 (control).

Atmospheric Environment The atmospheric environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on samples of air particulate, and airborne iodine. Airborne iodine and particulate samples were collected and analyzed weekly at eight locations (BY-01, BY-04, BY-06, BY-08, BY-21, BY-22, BY-23 and BY-24). The control location was BY-08. Airborne iodine and particulate samples were obtained at each location, using a vacuum pump with charcoal and glass fiber filters attached. The pumps were run continuously and sampled air at the rate of approximately one cubic foot per minute. The air filters and air iodine samples were replaced weekly and sent to the laboratory for analysis.

Terrestrial Environment The terrestrial environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on samples of milk and food products. Milk samples were collected monthly from January through April and November through December, and biweekly May through October. The control location was BY-26-2 and the indicator location was BY-20-1. All samples were collected in new unused two gallon plastic bottles from the bulk tank at each location, preserved with sodium bisulfate and shipped promptly to the laboratory.

Food products were collected annually in August at five locations (BY-Control, BY-Quad 1, BY-Quad 2, BY-Quad 3 and BY-Quad 4).

Various types of samples were collected and placed in new unused plastic bags, and sent to the laboratory for analysis.

Ambient Gamma Radiation Beginning in 2012, Exelon changed the type of dosimetry used for the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP). Optically Stimulated Luminescent Dosimetry (OSLD) were deployed and Thermoluminescent Dosimetry (TLD) were discontinued. This change may result in a step change in readings, up or down, depending on site characteristics. The relative comparison to control locations remains valid. OSLD technology is different than that used in a TLD but has the same purpose (to measure direct radiation).

Each location consisted of 2 OSLD sets. The OSLDs were exchanged quarterly and sent to Landauer for analysis. The OSLDs were placed at locations on and around the BNGS Station site as follows:

An inner ring consisting of 16 locations (BY-101, BY-102, BY-103, BY-104, BY-105, BY-106, BY-107, BY-108, BY-109, BY-110, BY-111, BY-112, BY-113, BY-114, BY-115 and BY-116) near and within the site perimeter representing fence post doses (i.e., at locations where the doses will be potentially greater than maximum annual off-site doses) from BNGS releases.

An outer ring consisting of 16 locations (BY-201, BY-202, BY-203, BY-204, BY-205, BY-206, BY-207, BY-208, BY-209, BY-210, BY-211, BY-212, BY-213, BY-214, BY-215 and BY-216) extending to approximately 5 miles from the site designed to measure possible exposures to close-in population.

A special interest set consisting of seven locations (BY-301-1, BY-302-1, BY-309-1, BY-309-2, BY-309-3, BY-309-4 and BY-314-1) to measure possible exposures from on-site storage facilities.

An other set consisting of seven locations (BY-01, BY-04, BY-06, BY-21, BY-22, BY-23 and BY-24) at locations where air samplers are present.

The balance of one location (BY-08) representing the control area.

The specific OSLD locations were determined by the following criteria:

1. The presence of relatively dense population;
2. Site meteorological data taking into account distance and elevation for each of the sixteen-22 1/2 degree sectors around the site, where estimated annual dose from BNGS, if any, would be most significant; Page 13 of 206
3. On hills free from local obstructions and within sight of the vents (where practical);
4. And near the closest dwelling to the vents in the prevailing downwind direction.

Two OSLDs were placed at each location located at a minimum of five feet above ground level. The OSLDs were exchanged quarterly and sent to Landauer for analysis.

B. Sample Analysis This section describes the general analytical methodologies used by TBE to analyze the environmental samples for radioactivity for the BNGS REMP in 2014. The analytical procedures used by the laboratory are listed in Table B-2.

In order to achieve the stated objectives, the current program includes the following analyses:

1. Concentrations of beta emitters in surface water and air particulates.
2. Concentrations of gamma emitters in ground and surface water, air particulates, milk, fish, sediment and vegetation.
3. Concentrations of tritium in ground and surface water.
4. Concentrations of I-131 in air and milk.
5. Concentrations of Nickel-63 in surface water, fish and sediment.
6. Ambient gamma radiation levels at various site environs.

C. Data Interpretation The radiological and direct radiation data collected prior to Byron Nuclear Generating Station becoming operational were used as a baseline with which these operational data were compared. For the purpose of this report, Byron Nuclear Generating Station was considered operational at initial criticality. In addition, data were compared to previous years' operational data for consistency and trending. Several factors were important in the interpretation of the data:

Page 14 of 206

1. Lower Limit of Detection and Minimum Detectable Concentration The lower limit of detection (LLD) was defined as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that would yield a net count (above background) that would be detected with only a 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal. The LLD was intended as a before-the-fact estimate of a system (including instrumentation, procedure and sample type) and not as an after-the-fact criteria for the presence of activity. All analyses were designed to achieve the required BNGS detection capabilities for environmental sample analysis.

The minimum detectable concentration (MDC) is defined above with the exception that the measurement is an after-the-fact estimate of the presence of activity.

2. Net Activity Calculation and Reporting of Results Net activity for a sample was calculated by subtracting background activity from the sample activity. Since the REMP measures extremely small changes in radioactivity in the environment, background variations may result in sample activity being lower than the background activity effecting a negative number. An MDC was reported in all cases where positive activity was not detected.

Gamma spectroscopy results for each type of sample were grouped as follows:

For surface water, ground water and vegetation twelve nuclides, Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Nb-95, Zr-95, I-131, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ba-140 and La-140 were reported.

For fish, sediment, air particulate and milk eleven nuclides, Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Nb-95, Zr-95, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ba-140 and La-140 were reported.

Means and standard deviations of the results were calculated. The standard deviations represent the variability of measured results for different samples rather than single analysis uncertainty.

IV. Results and Discussion A. Aquatic Environment

1. Surface Water Samples were taken weekly and composited monthly at two locations (BY-12 and BY-29). Of these locations only BY-12 located downstream, could be affected by Byron Nuclear Generating Stations effluent releases. The following analyses were performed.

Gross Beta Samples from both locations were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta (Table C-I.1, Appendix C). The values ranged from 3.0 to 7.6 pCi/l. Concentrations detected were consistent with those detected in previous years (Figure C-1, Appendix C).

Tritium Quarterly composites of weekly collections were analyzed for tritium activity (Table C-I.2, Appendix C). Tritium was detected in two samples. The concentrations ranged from 352 - 985 pCi/L (Figure C-2, Appendix C). Tritium detected in downstream surface water was well below reportable limits and consistent with expected levels as a result of permitted liquid discharges.

Nickel Samples from both locations were analyzed for concentration of Ni-63 (Table C-I.3, Appendix C). All results were less than the minimum detectable concentration.

Gamma Spectrometry Samples from both locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-I.4, Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.

2. Ground Water Quarterly grab samples were collected at six locations (BY-14-1, BY-18-1, BY-32, BY-35, BY-36 and BY-37). These locations could be affected by Byron Nuclear Generating Stations effluent releases. The following analyses were performed:

Page 18 of 206

Tritium Quarterly grab samples from the locations were analyzed for tritium activity (Table C-II.1, Appendix C). No tritium was detected, and the required LLD was met (Figures C-3 through C-7, Appendix C).

Gamma Spectrometry Samples from all locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-II.2 Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.

3. Fish Fish samples comprised of freshwater drum, shorthead redhorse, smallmouth bass, channel catfish and common carp were collected at two locations (BY-29 and BY-31) semiannually. Location BY-31 could be affected by Byron Nuclear Generating Stations effluent releases. The following analyses were performed:

Nickel The edible portion of fish samples from both locations was analyzed for Nickel-63 (Table C-III.1, Appendix C). Nickel-63 was not detected and the required LLD was met.

Gamma Spectrometry The edible portion of fish samples from both locations was analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-III.1, Appendix C).

No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.

4. Sediment Aquatic sediment samples were collected at two locations (BY-12 and BY-34) semiannually. BY-12, located downstream, could be affected by Byron Nuclear Generating Stations effluent releases.

The following analyses were performed:

Nickel Sediment samples from both locations were analyzed for Nickel-63 (Table C-IV.1, Appendix C). Nickel-63 was not detected and the required LLD was met.

Page 19 of 206

Gamma Spectrometry Sediment samples from both locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-IV.1, Appendix C). Cesium-137 was detected in three samples. The concentrations ranged from 68 to 183 pCi/kg dry. Concentrations detected were consistent with those detected in previous years and are not a result of plant effluents. No other nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.

B. Atmospheric Environment

1. Airborne
a. Air Particulates Continuous air particulate samples were collected from eight locations on a weekly basis. The eight locations were separated into three groups: Nearsite samplers within 4 km of the site (BY-21, BY-22, BY-23 and BY-24), Far Field samplers between 4 and 10 km of the site (BY-01, BY-04 and BY-06) and the Control sampler between 10 and 30 km from the site (BY-08). The following analyses were performed:

Gross Beta Weekly samples were analyzed for concentrations of beta emitters (Table C-V.1 and C-V.2, Appendix C).

Detectable gross beta activity was observed at all locations.

Comparison of results among the three groups aid in determining the effects, if any, resulting from the operation of BNGS. The results from the Nearsite locations (Group I) ranged from 6 to 37 E-3 pCi/m3 with a mean of 17 E-3 pCi/m3. The results from the Far Field locations (Group II) ranged from 5 to 37 E-3 pCi/m3 with a mean of 17 E-3 pCi/m3. The results from the Control location (Group III) ranged from 8 to 37 E-3 pCi/m3 with a mean of 19 E-3 pCi/m3. Comparison of the 2014 air particulate data with previous years data indicate no effects from the operation of BNGS. In addition a comparison of the weekly mean values for 2014 indicate no notable differences among the three groups (Figures C-8 through C-12, Appendix C).

Page 20 of 206

Gamma Spectrometry Weekly samples were composited quarterly and analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-V.3, Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.

b. Airborne Iodine Continuous air samples were collected from eight locations (BY-01, BY-04, BY-06, BY-08, BY-21, BY-22, BY-23 and BY-24) and analyzed weekly for I-131 (Table C-VI.1, Appendix C). All results were less than the minimum detectable concentration for I-131.
2. Terrestrial
a. Milk Samples were collected from two locations (BY-20-1 and BY-26-2) monthly from January to April and November through December, and biweekly May through October. The following analyses were performed:

Iodine-131 Milk samples from all locations were analyzed for concentrations of I-131 (Table C-VII.1, Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.

Gamma Spectrometry Each milk sample was analyzed for concentrations of gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-VII.2, Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.

b. Vegetation Vegetation samples were collected at five locations (BY-Control, BY-Quad 1, BY-Quad 2, BY-Quad 3 and BY-Quad 4) when available. Four locations (BY-Quad 1, BY-Quad 2, BY-Quad 3 and BY-Quad 4) could be affected by Byron Nuclear Generating Stations effluent releases.

The following analysis was performed:

Gamma Spectrometry Samples from all locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-VIII.1, Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.

C. Ambient Gamma Radiation Ambient gamma radiation levels were measured utilizing OSLDs.

Ninety-one OSLD locations were established around the site. Results of OSLD measurements are listed in Tables C-IX.1 to C-IX.3, Appendix C.

All OSLD measurements were below 30 mR/standard quarter, with a range of 17 to 29 mR/standard quarter. A comparison of the Inner Ring, Outer Ring, Special Interest, Other and Control Location data indicate that the ambient gamma radiation levels were comparable among the groups.

D. Land Use Survey A Land Use Survey conducted during August 2014 around the Byron Nuclear Generating Station (BNGS) was performed by Environmental Inc.

(Midwest Labs) for Exelon Nuclear to comply with the Byron Nuclear Generating Stations Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The purpose of the survey was to document the nearest resident, livestock, and milk producing animals in each of the sixteen 22 1/2 degree sectors and garden in each of the four 90 degree quadrants around the site. The results of this survey are summarized below.

E. Errata Data AREOR reports from 2010-2013 contained errors in the Appendix E, Section 1.2, Liquids Released to the Rock River, summary information.

The maximum quarterly average concentrations reported for fission and activation products, tritium, and dissolved and entrained gases were incorrectly summed between the Unit 1 and Unit 2 quarterly average concentrations, which are identical because liquid releases are divided evenly between the two units. The original and corrected quarterly average concentrations are summarized in Appendix G:

F. Summary of Results - Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program The primary laboratories analyzed Performance Evaluation (PE) samples of air particulate, air iodine, milk, soil, vegetation and water matrices (Appendix D). The PE samples, supplied by Analytics Inc., Environmental Resource Associates (ERA) and DOEs Mixed Analyte Performance Evaluation Program (MAPEP), were evaluated against the following pre-set acceptance criteria:

1. Analytics Evaluation Criteria Analytics evaluation report provides a ratio of laboratory results and Analytics known value. Since flag values are not assigned by Analytics, TBE-ES evaluates the reported ratios based on internal Page 23 of 206

QC requirements, which are based on the DOE MAPEP criteria.

2. ERA Evaluation Criteria ERAs evaluation report provides an acceptance range for control and warning limits with associated flag values. ERAs acceptance limits are established per the USEPA, NELAC, state specific PT program requirements or ERAs SOP for the Generation of Performance Acceptance Limits, as applicable. The acceptance limits are either determined by a regression equation specific to each analyte or a fixed percentage limit promulgated under the appropriate regulatory document.
3. DOE Evaluation Criteria MAPEPs evaluation report provides an acceptance range with associated flag values.

The MAPEP defines three levels of performance: Acceptable (flag = A), Acceptable with Warning (flag = W), and Not Acceptable (flag = N). Performance is considered acceptable when a mean result for the specified analyte is +/- 20% of the reference value. Performance is acceptable with warning when a mean result falls in the range from +/-20% to +/-30% of the reference value (i.e., 20% < bias < 30%). If the bias is greater than 30%, the results are deemed not acceptable.

In reviewing our environmental inter-laboratory crosscheck programs, we identified 1) duplication of efforts on some matrices and isotopes and 2) that we are performing crosscheck samples on some matrices and isotopes that we do not perform for clients. Since the DOE MAPEP is designed to evaluate the ability of analytical facilities to correctly analyze for radiological constituents representative of those at DOE sites, the needed changes were made to the MAPEP program. Therefore, the following isotopes were removed from the MAPEP program:

Soil - gamma - will be provided by Analytics twice per year, starting in 2015. For 2014, one soil gamma is provided by MAPEP, the 2nd soil gamma is provided by Analytics.

AP - gamma - is currently provided by Analytics.

Water - gamma, H-3, Sr-90, uranium, gross alpha and gross beta currently provided by ERA.

MAPEP evaluates non-reported (NR) analyses as failed if they were Page 24 of 206

reported in the previous series.

For the TBE laboratory, 163 out of 169 analyses performed met the specified acceptance criteria. Six analyses (Ni-63, K-40 and I-131 in water, and two Sr-90s and one Gross Alpha in AP samples) did not meet the specified acceptance criteria for the following reasons:

1. Teledyne Brown Engineerings MAPEP March 2014 Ni-63 in water result of 32.7 +/- 1.69 Bq/L was overlooked when reporting the data but would have passed the acceptance range of 23.9 - 44.2 Bq/L.

NCR 14-04

2. Teledyne Brown Engineerings MAPEP March 2014 K-40 in water result of 1.63 +/- 2.49 Bq/L was overlooked when reporting the data but would have passed the false positive test. NCR 14-04
3. Teledyne Brown Engineerings ERA November 2014 I-131 in water result of 15.8 pCi/L was lower than the known value of 20.3 pCi/L, failing below the lower acceptance limit of 16.8. The result was evaluated as failed with a found to known ratio of 0.778. No cause could be found for the slightly low result. All ERA I-131 evaluations since 2004 have been acceptable. NCR 14-08
4. Teledyne Brown Engineerings MAPEP March 2014 Sr-90 in AP result of 0.822 Bq/sample was lower than the known value of 1.18 Bq/sample, failing below the lower acceptance limit of 0.83 Bq/sample. The rerun result was still low, but fell within the lower acceptance range of 0.836. The rerun result was statistically the same number as the original result. No cause could be found for the slightly low results. NCR 14-04
5. Teledyne Brown Engineerings MAPEP September 2014 Sr-90 in AP result of 0.310 Bq/sample was lower than the known value of 0.703 Bq/sample. The gravimetric yield of 117% was very high (we normally see yields of 60% to 70 %) and could account for the low activity. NCR 14-09
6. Teledyne Brown Engineerings MAPEP September 2014 Gr-Alpha in AP result of 0.153 Bq/sample was lower than the known value of 0.53 Bq/sample. The AP sample was counted on the wrong side.

The AP was flipped over and recounted with acceptable results.

NCR 14-09 The Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program provides evidence of in control counting systems and methods, and that the laboratories are producing accurate and reliable data.

  • The MAPEP cross check isotope list has been reduced due to duplication of effort or analysis not being performed for clients.
    • These nuclides are no longer part of the TBE cross check program due to duplication of effort or analysis not being performed for clients. MAPEP evaluates non-reported analyses as failed if they were reported in the previous series.
      • All future gamma cross check samples for these isotopes will be provided by Analytics.

(1) False positive test.

(2) Sensitivity evaluation.

(3) Water, Ni-63 overlooked when reporting, but the result of 32.7 +- 1.69 would have passed the acceptance criteria. NCR 14-04 Water , the non-detected K-40 was overlooked when reporting, but would have passed the false positive test. NCR 14-04 AP, Sr-90 rerun was within the low range of the acceptqance criteria. The original and rerun results were statistically the same. No cause could be identified for the slightly low Sr-90 activity. NCR 14-04 For non reported (NR) analyses, MAPEP evaluates as failed if they were reported in the previous series. NCR 14-04 (4) AP, Sr-90 gravimetric yield was very high at 117%. Could indicate larger than normal amounts of calcium in the AP. A second fuming HNO 3 separation would be required to remove the excess calcium. NCR 14-09 AP, Gr-Alpha was counted on the wrong side. When flipped over and recounted the results were acceptable. NCR 14-09 For non reported (NR) analyses, MAPEP evaluates as failed if they were reported in the previous series. NCR 14-09 (a) Teledyne Brown Engineering reported result.

(b) The MAPEP known value is equal to 100% of the parameter present in the standard as determined by gravimetric and/or volumetric measurements made during standard preparation.

(c) DOE/MAPEP evaluation: A=acceptable, W=acceptable with warning, N=not acceptable.

SUMMARY

Calculations based on gaseous and liquid effluents and meteorological data indicate that public dose due to radioactive material attributable to Byron Station during the period does not exceed regulatory or Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) limits.

The Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) due to licensed activities at Byron Station calculated for the maximum exposed individual for the period is 2.64E-01 mrem. The annual limit on TEDE is 100 mrem.

The assessment of radiation doses to the public is performed in accordance with the ODCM. The results of these analyses confirm that the station is operating in compliance with 10CFR50 Appendix I, 10CFR20 and 40CFR190.

There were no additional operational controls implemented which affected the areas of radiological effluents in 2014.

There were no measurements which exceeded the reporting levels, including any which would not have been attributable to station effluents.

The results of the current radiological environmental monitoring program are approximately the same as those found during the pre-operational studies conducted at Byron Station.

INTRODUCTION Liquid effluents from Byron Station are released to the Rock River in controlled batches after radioassay of each batch. Gaseous effluents are released to the atmosphere and are calculated on the basis of analyses of weekly grab samples and grab samples of batch releases prior to the release of noble gases as well as continuously collected composite samples of iodine and particulate radioactivity sampled during the course of the year. The results of effluent analyses are summarized on a monthly basis. Airborne concentrations of noble gases, I-131, and particulate radioactivity in offsite areas are calculated using isotopic composition of effluents and meteorological data. C-14 concentration in offsite areas is calculated based on industry-approved methodology for estimation of the amount released and meteorological data.

Environmental monitoring is conducted by sampling at indicator and control (background) locations in the vicinity of Byron Station to measure changes in radiation or radioactivity levels that may be attributable to station operation. If significant changes attributable to Byron Station are measured, these changes are correlated with effluent releases. An environmental monitoring program is conducted which also includes all potential pathways at the site. Gaseous pathways include ground plane (direct), inhalation, vegetation, meat, and milk.

Liquid pathways include potable water and freshwater fish. The critical pathway for 2014 gaseous dose was vegetation. The critical pathway for 2014 liquid dose was freshwater fish.

Quarterly release totals of principal radionuclides in liquid effluents are given in Table 1.2-1.

2.0 SOLID RADIOACTIVE WASTE Solid radioactive wastes were shipped by truck. For detail, refer to Byron Station 2014 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Report.

3.1 DOSE TO MAN 3.2 Gaseous Effluent Pathways Table 3.2-1 summarizes the doses resulting from releases of airborne radioactivity via the different exposure pathways.

3.2.1 Noble Gases 3.2.1.1 Gamma Dose Rates Offsite Gamma air and whole body dose rates are shown in Table 3.2-1 and were calculated based on measured release rates, isotopic composition of the noble gases, and average meteorological data for the period. Dose rates based on concurrent meteorological data are shown in Table 3.4-1. Based on measured effluents and average meteorological data, the maximum gamma air dose was 4.63E-05 mrad based on measured effluents and average meteorological data, and 9.25E-06 mrad based on measured effluents and concurrent meteorological data.

(Table 3.4-1).

3.2.1.2 Beta Air and Skin Dose Rates The range of beta particles in air is relatively small (on the order of a few meters or less);

consequently, plumes of gaseous effluents may be considered "semi-infinite" for purpose of calculating the dose from beta radiation incident on the skin. However, the actual dose to sensitive skin tissues is difficult to calculate due to the effect of the beta particle energies, thickness of inert skin and clothing covering sensitive tissues. For purposes of this report the skin is taken to have a Page 100 of 206

thickness of 7.0 mg/cm2 and an occupancy factor of 1.0 is used. The skin dose based on measured effluents and average meteorological data was 1.89E-05 mrem, and 1.29E-05 mrem based on measured effluents and concurrent meteorological data.

The maximum offsite beta air dose for the year based on measured effluents and average meteorological data was 1.58E-05 mrad. The beta air dose based on measured effluents and concurrent meteorological data was 1.30E-05 mrad.

3.2.2 Radioactive Iodine & Particulate The human thyroid exhibits a significant capacity to concentrate ingested or inhaled iodine. I-131 released during routine operation of the station may be made available to man resulting in a dose to the thyroid. C-14 is also included in this category. C-14 exhibits a capacity to concentrate in bone. C-14 is released in gaseous form and is absorbed into vegetation through photosynthesis. The principal pathways of interest for C-14 are the consumption of vegetation by humans and milk from which animals have ingested C-14 through the consumption of vegetation. With the addition of C-14 to plant effluents, human dose in this category is primarily driven by the release of C-14 from the plant.

The hypothetical dose to the maximum exposed individual living near the station via ingestion of milk and vegetation was calculated. The source of milk and vegetation was assumed to be at the nearest site boundary with the cows pastured and vegetation grown from May through October.

The maximum dose from radioactive iodine and particulate (including C-14) to any organ was 6.96E-01 mrem (child/bone) based on measured effluents and average meteorological data and 7.36E-01 mrem based on measured effluents and concurrent meteorological data.

The maximum dose from radioactive iodine and particulate (including C-14) to the whole body was 1.44E-01 mrem (child) based on measured effluents and average meteorological data and 1.53E-01 mrem based on measured effluents and concurrent meteorological data.

Page 101 of 206

3.2.3 Gaseous Total Dose The maximum total dose from gaseous releases to any organ was 6.96E-01 mrem (child/bone) based on measured effluents and average meteorological data, and 7.36E-01 mrem (child/bone) based on measured effluents and concurrent meteorological data. The maximum total dose from gaseous releases to the whole body was 1.44E-01 mrem (child) based on measured effluents and average meteorological data, and 1.53E-01 mrem (child) based on measured effluents and concurrent meteorological data.

3.3 Liquid Effluent Pathways The principal pathways through the aquatic environment for potential doses to man from liquid waste are ingestion of potable water and eating aquatic foods. Liquid dose was calculated based on the ingestion of potable water and sport fish. It should be noted, however, there were no communities within 10 km downstream of the plant using the Rock River for drinking water. NRC-developed equations were used to calculate the doses to the whole body, bone, liver, thyroid, kidney, lung, lower GI tract, and skin. Specific parameters for use in the equations are given in the Exelon Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). The maximum dose from liquid releases to any organ was 2.23E-01 mrem (adult/gilli). The maximum dose from liquid releases to the whole body was 1.44E-01 mrem (adult).

3.4 Total Dose The maximum total dose to any organ via both gaseous and liquid effluents to any organ is 7.01E-01 mrem (child/bone). The maximum dose to the whole body via both gaseous and liquid effluents is 2.64E-01 mrem (child).

3.5 Assessment of Dose to Member of Public Byron Station did not exceed any of the dose limits as shown below based on concurrent or historical meteorological data.

The RETS limits on dose or dose commitment to a member of the public due to radioactive materials in liquid effluents from each reactor is 1.5 mrem to the whole body or 5 mrem to any organ Page 102 of 206

during any calendar quarter and 3 mrem to the whole body or 10 mrem to any organ during a calendar year.

The RETS limits on air dose in noble gases released in gaseous effluents to a member of the public from each reactor is 5 mrad for gamma radiation or 10 mrad for beta radiation during any calendar quarter and 10 mrad for gamma radiation or 20 mrad for beta radiation during a calendar year.

The RETS limits on dose to a member of the public due to radioactive iodine & particulate with half-lives greater than eight days in gaseous effluents released from each reactor is 7.5 mrem to any organ during any calendar quarter and 15 mrem during a calendar year.

The 10CFR20 limit on Total Effective Dose Equivalent to individual members of the public is 100 mrem during a calendar year.

4.0 SITE METEOROLOGY Detailed records of the site meteorological measurements taken during each calendar quarter of the year are maintained by the meteorological vendor, retained on site, and are available upon request. The data are presented as cumulative joint frequency distributions of the wind direction for the 250 level and wind speed class by atmospheric stability class determined from the temperature difference between the 250 and 30 levels. Data recovery for all measurements on the meteorological tower was 99.7% during 2014.

I. Summary and Conclusions In 2006, Exelon instituted a comprehensive monitoring program to evaluate the impact of station operations on groundwater in the vicinity of Byron Nuclear Generating Station. The monitoring was conducted in two phases. Phase 1 of the monitoring was part of a comprehensive study initiated by Exelon to determine whether groundwater or surface water at and in the vicinity of Byron Nuclear Generating Station had been adversely impacted by any releases of radionuclides. Phase 1 was conducted by Conestoga Rovers and Associates (CRA) and the conclusions were made available to state and federal regulators as well as the public.

Phase 2 of the RGPP was conducted by Exelon corporate and station personnel to initiate follow up of Phase 1 and begin long-term monitoring at groundwater locations selected during Phase 1. This is the eighth in a series of annual reports on the status of the Radiological Groundwater Protection Program (RGPP) conducted at Byron Nuclear Generating Station. This report covers groundwater samples, collected from the environment, both on and off station property in 2014. During that time period, 122 analyses were performed on 54 samples from 15 locations.

Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective Lower Limits of Detection (LLDs) as specified in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) in any of the groundwater samples tested. In the case of tritium, Exelon specified that its laboratories achieve a lower limit of detection 10 times lower than that required by federal regulation.

In 2014, fifteen (15) Radiological Groundwater Protection Program (RGPP) monitoring wells were sampled. The samples were obtained throughout the year and analyzed for tritium. In addition, a study of gamma, beta, and alpha radioisotopes was performed in accordance with Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 07-07, Groundwater Protection Initiative, for the samples obtained in May. Three wells contained levels of tritium above the lower limit of detection (LLD) of 200 pCi/L. They were: AR-4, with concentrations ranging from 459 - 791 pCi/L; AR-7, with concentrations ranging from 325 - 791 pCi/L; and AR-11, with concentrations ranging from 822 - 984 pCi/L. Wells AR-4 and AR-11 are near the Circulating Water Blowdown piping, where historical leakage through vacuum breakers was known to have occurred. Tritium concentrations in these wells have decreased since being first sampled in 2006. In 2014, tritium was measured in Well AR-7, located on-site, just west plant structures, at concentrations between 701 and 325 pCi/L. Tritium has been measured in this well just above detectable limits on an intermittent basis since the well was first drilled in 2006. The tritium present in this well is at or below tritium levels that have been measured in rainwater as a result of precipitation recapture from permitted gaseous releases and it is not believed to be the result of new leak(s).

Page 187 of 206

In August 2014, a break in the well piping was discovered about six feet below the surface that could have served as the entry point for tritium in the recapture water. Since the well was repaired, 3 of the 4 tritium samples obtained have measured less than 370 pCi/L. Should the water in this aquifer migrate to off-site wells used for drinking, the off-site dose consequence from tritium present in any of these three wells would be negligible.

Strontium-89 and strontium-90 were not detected in any samples above their respective LLDs of 10 and 1 pCi/L.

Gross Alpha and Gross Beta analyses in the dissolved and suspended fractions were performed on groundwater samples during the second quarter sampling in 2014. Gross Alpha (dissolved) was not detected in any of eight groundwater locations. Gross Alpha (suspended) was detected in one of eight groundwater locations at a concentration of 6.3 pCi/L. Gross Beta (dissolved) was detected in five of eight groundwater locations. The concentrations ranged from 2.9 to 23 pCi/L. Gross Beta (suspended) was detected in two of eight groundwater locations. The concentration ranged from 4.4 to 13 pCi/L. The concentrations of Gross Alpha and Gross Beta, which are slightly above detectable levels, are considered to be background and are not the result of plant effluents.

Hard-To-Detect analyses were not performed in 2014.

In assessing all the data gathered for this report, it was concluded that the operation of Byron Nuclear Generating Station had no adverse radiological impact on the environment, and there are no known active releases into the groundwater at Byron Nuclear Generating Station.

II. Introduction The Byron Station, a two-unit PWR station, is located about two miles east of the Rock River and approximately three miles southwest of Byron in Ogle County, Illinois. The reactors are designed to have capacities of 1,268 and 1,241 MW gross, respectively. Unit One loaded fuel in November 1984 and went on line February 2, 1985. Unit Two went on line January 9, 1987.

This report covers those analyses performed by Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE) on samples collected in 2014.

A. Objectives of the RGPP The long-term objectives of the RGPP are as follows:

1. Identify suitable locations to monitor and evaluate potential impacts Page 188 of 206

from station operations before significant radiological impact to the environment and potential drinking water sources.

2. Understand the local hydrogeologic regime in the vicinity of the station and maintain up-to-date knowledge of flow patterns on the surface and shallow subsurface.
3. Perform routine water sampling and radiological analysis of water from selected locations.
4. Report new leaks, spills, or other detections with potential radiological significance to stakeholders in a timely manner.
5. Regularly assess analytical results to identify adverse trends.
6. Take necessary corrective actions to protect groundwater resources.

B. Implementation of the Objectives The objectives identified have been implemented at Byron Nuclear Generating Station as discussed below:

1. Exelon and its consultant identified locations as described in the Phase 1 study. Phase 1 studies were conducted by Conestoga Rovers and Associates (CRA) and the results and conclusions were made available to state and federal regulators as well as the public.
2. The Byron Nuclear Generating Station reports describe the local hydrogeologic regime. Periodically, the flow patterns on the surface and shallow subsurface are updated based on ongoing measurements.
3. Byron Nuclear Generating Station will continue to perform routine sampling and radiological analysis of water from selected locations.
4. Byron Nuclear Generating Station has implemented new procedures to identify and report new leaks, spills, or other detections with potential radiological significance in a timely manner.
5. Byron Nuclear Generating Station staff and consulting hydrogeologist assess analytical results on an ongoing basis to identify adverse trends.

C. Program Description

1. Sample Collection Sample locations can be found in Table A-1 and Figure A-1, Appendix A.

Groundwater Samples of water are collected, managed, transported and analyzed in accordance with approved procedures following EPA methods. Only groundwater is collected. Sample locations, sample collection frequencies and analytical frequencies are controlled in accordance with approved station procedures.

Contractor and/or station personnel are trained in the collection, preservation management, and shipment of samples, as well as in documentation of sampling events. Analytical laboratories are subject to internal quality assurance programs, industry cross-check programs, as well as nuclear industry audits. Station personnel review and evaluate all analytical data deliverables as data are received.

Analytical data results are reviewed by both station personnel and an independent hydrogeologist for adverse trends or changes to hydrogeologic conditions.

D. Characteristics of Tritium (H-3)

Tritium (chemical symbol H-3) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. The most common form of tritium is tritium oxide, which is also called "tritiated water." The chemical properties of tritium are essentially those of ordinary hydrogen.

Tritiated water behaves the same as ordinary water in both the environment and the body. Tritium can be taken into the body by drinking water, breathing air, eating food, or absorption through skin. Once tritium enters the body, it disperses quickly and is uniformly distributed throughout the body. Tritium is excreted primarily through urine with a clearance rate characterized by an effective biological half-life of about 14 days. Within one month or so after ingestion, essentially all tritium is cleared. Organically bound tritium (tritium that is incorporated in organic compounds) can remain in the body for a longer period.

Tritium is produced naturally in the upper atmosphere when cosmic rays strike air molecules. Tritium is also produced during nuclear weapons explosions, as a by-product in reactors producing electricity, and in special Page 190 of 206

production reactors, where the isotopes lithium-7 and/or boron-10 are activated to produce tritium. Like normal water, tritiated water is colorless and odorless. Tritiated water behaves chemically and physically like non-tritiated water in the subsurface, and therefore tritiated water will travel at the same velocity as the average groundwater velocity.

Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12.3 years. It decays spontaneously to helium-3 (3He). This radioactive decay releases a beta particle (low-energy electron). The radioactive decay of tritium is the source of the health risk from exposure to tritium. Tritium is one of the least dangerous radionuclides because it emits very weak radiation and leaves the body relatively quickly. Since tritium is almost always found as water, it goes directly into soft tissues and organs. The associated dose to these tissues is generally uniform and is dependent on the water content of the specific tissue.

III. Program Description A. Sample Analysis This section describes the general analytical methodologies used by TBE to analyze the environmental samples for radioactivity for the Byron Nuclear Generating Station RGPP in 2014.

In order to achieve the stated objectives, the current program includes the following analyses (as required by procedure):

1. Concentrations of gamma emitters in groundwater.
2. Concentrations of strontium in groundwater.
3. Concentrations of tritium in groundwater.
4. Concentrations of gross alpha and gross beta in groundwater.

B. Data Interpretation The radiological data collected prior to Byron Nuclear Generating Station becoming operational were used as a baseline with which these operational data were compared. For the purpose of this report, Byron Nuclear Generating Station was considered operational at initial criticality.

Several factors were important in the interpretation of the data:

Page 191 of 206

1. Lower Limit of Detection and Minimum Detectable Concentration The lower limit of detection (LLD) is specified by federal regulation as a minimum sensitivity value that must be achieved routinely by the analytical parameter.
2. Laboratory Measurements Uncertainty The estimated uncertainty in measurement of tritium in environmental samples is frequently on the order of 50% of the measurement value.

Statistically, the exact value of a measurement is expressed as a range with a stated level of confidence. The convention is to report results with a 95% level of confidence. The uncertainty comes from calibration standards, sample volume or weight measurements, sampling uncertainty and other factors. Exelon reports the uncertainty of a measurement created by statistical process (counting error) as well as all sources of error (Total Propagated Uncertainty or TPU). Each result has two values calculated. Exelon reports the TPU by following the result with plus or minus +/- the estimated sample standard deviation, as TPU, that is obtained by propagating all sources of analytical uncertainty in measurements.

Analytical uncertainties are reported at the 95% confidence level in this report for reporting consistency with the AREOR.

C. Background Analysis A pre-operational radiological environmental monitoring program (pre-operational REMP) was conducted to establish background radioactivity levels prior to operation of the Station. The environmental media sampled and analyzed during the pre-operational REMP were atmospheric radiation, fall-out, domestic water, surface water, marine life, and foodstuffs. The results of the monitoring were detailed in the report entitled, Environmental Radiological Monitoring for Byron Nuclear Generating Nuclear Power Station, Commonwealth Edison Company, Annual Report 1984, April 1985.

The pre-operational REMP contained analytical results from samples collected from the surface water and groundwater. All groundwater samples listed in the pre-Operational REMP report were <200 pCi/L.

1. Background Concentrations of Tritium The purpose of the following discussion is to summarize background measurements of tritium in various media performed by others. Additional detail may be found by consulting references (CRA 2006).
a. Tritium Production Tritium is created in the environment from naturally occurring processes both cosmic and subterranean, as well as from anthropogenic (i.e., man-made) sources. In the upper atmosphere, Cosmogenic tritium is produced from the bombardment of stable nuclides and combines with oxygen to form tritiated water, which will then enter the hydrologic cycle. Below ground, lithogenic tritium is produced by the bombardment of natural lithium present in crystalline rocks by neutrons produced by the radioactive decay of naturally abundant uranium and thorium. Lithogenic production of tritium is usually negligible compared to other sources due to the limited abundance of lithium in rock. The lithogenic tritium is introduced directly to groundwater.

A major anthropogenic source of tritium and strontium-90 comes from the former atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Levels of tritium in precipitation increased significantly during the 1950s and early 1960s, and later with additional testing, resulting in the release of significant amounts of tritium to the atmosphere. The Canadian heavy water nuclear power reactors, other commercial power reactors, nuclear research and weapons production continue to influence tritium concentrations in the environment.

b. Precipitation Data Precipitation samples are routinely collected at stations around the world for the analysis of tritium and other radionuclides. Two publicly available databases that provide tritium concentrations in precipitation are Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP) and USEPAs RadNet database. GNIP provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected world wide from 1960 to 2006.

RadNet provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected at stations through out the U.S. from 1960 up to and including 2006. Based on GNIP data for sample stations located in the U.S. Midwest, tritium concentrations Page 193 of 206

peaked around 1963. This peak, which approached 10,000 pCi/L for some stations, coincided with the atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Tritium concentrations in surface water showed a sharp decline up until 1975 followed by a gradual decline since that time. Tritium concentrations in Midwest precipitation have typically been below 100 pCi/L since around 1980. Tritium concentrations in wells may still be above the 200 pCi/L detection limit from the external causes described above. Water from previous years and decades is naturally captured in groundwater, so some well water sources today are affected by the surface water from the 1960s that was elevated in tritium.

c. Surface Water Data Tritium concentrations are routinely measured in large surface water bodies, including Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River. Illinois surface water data were typically less than 100 pCi/L.

The USEPA RadNet surface water data typically has a reported Combined Standard Uncertainty of 35 to 50 pCi/L.

According to USEPA, this corresponds to a +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L 95% confidence bound on each given measurement.

Therefore, the typical background data provided may be subject to measurement uncertainty of approximately +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L.

The radio-analytical laboratory is counting tritium results to an Exelon specified LLD of 200 pCi/L. Typically, the lowest positive measurement will be reported within a range of 40 -

240 pCi/L or 140 +/- 100 pCi/L. Clearly, these sample results cannot be distinguished as different from background at this concentration.

IV. Results and Discussion A. Groundwater Results Groundwater Samples were collected from on and off-site wells throughout the year in accordance with the station radiological groundwater protection program.

Analytical results and anomalies are discussed below.

Tritium Samples from all locations were analyzed for tritium activity (Table B-I.1, Appendix B). Tritium values ranged from less than the detection limit to 984 pCi/L. Outside of the station boundary, tritium concentrations were all less than detection limit (<200 pCi/L). This is based on evaluation of groundwater sample results obtained as part of the Byron Station REMP.

In 2014, fifteen (15) Radiological Groundwater Protection Program (RGPP) monitoring wells were sampled. The samples were obtained throughout the year and analyzed for tritium. In addition, a study of gamma, beta and alpha radioisotopes was performed in accordance with Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 07-07, Groundwater Protection Initiative, for the samples obtained in May. Three wells contained levels of tritium above the lower limit of detection (LLD) of 200 pCi/L. They were: AR-4, with concentrations ranging from 459 - 791 pCi/L; AR-7, with concentrations ranging from 325 - 791 pCi/L; and AR-11, with concentrations ranging from 822 - 984 pCi/L. Wells AR-4 and AR-11 are near the Circulating Water Blowdown piping, where historical leakage through vacuum breakers was known to have occurred. Tritium concentrations in these wells have decreased since being first sampled in 2006. In 2014, tritium was measured in Well AR-7, located on-site, just west plant structures, at concentrations between 701 and 325 pCi/L.

Tritium has been measured in this well just above detectable limits on an intermittent basis since the well was first drilled in 2006. The tritium present in this well is at or below tritium levels that have been measured in rainwater as a result of precipitation recapture from permitted gaseous releases and it is not believed to be the result of new leak(s). In August 2014, a break in the well piping was discovered about six feet below the surface that could have served as the entry point for tritium in the recapture water. Since the well was repaired, 3 of the 4 tritium samples obtained have measured less than 370 pCi/L. The tritium detected in groundwater samples has been isolated to the Galena- Platteville aquifer, which is isolated from the deeper regional groundwater aquifer by the semi-confining Glenwood Formation. Groundwater quality data from production wells and monitoring wells at the station located below this aquifer do not indicate concentrations of tritium greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L. As such, the tritium impact is limited to the Galena- Platteville aquifer.

Strontium Strontium-89 and strontium-90 were not detected in any samples above their respective LLDs of 10 and 1 pCi/L.

Gross Alpha and Gross Beta (dissolved and suspended)

Gross Alpha and Gross Beta analyses in the dissolved and suspended fractions were performed on groundwater samples during the second quarter sampling in 2014. Gross Alpha (dissolved) was not detected in any of eight groundwater locations. Gross Alpha (suspended) was detected in one of eight groundwater locations at a concentration of 6.3 pCi/L. Gross Beta (dissolved) was detected in five of eight groundwater locations. The concentrations ranged from 2.9 to 23 pCi/L. Gross Beta (suspended) was detected in two of eight groundwater locations. The concentration ranged from 4.4 to 13 pCi/L. The concentrations of Gross Alpha and Gross Beta, which are slightly above detectable levels, are considered to be background and are not the result of plant effluents.

Gamma Emitters Naturally occurring K-40 was detected in one sample at a concentration of 98 pCi/L. All other gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the samples during 2014.

Hard-To-Detect Hard-To-Detect analyses were not performed in 2014.

B. Drinking Water Well Survey No drinking water well surveys were conducted in 2014.

C. Summary of Results - Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program results for TBE are presented in the AREOR.

D. Leaks, Spills, and Releases There are no new previously unidentified leaks or plumes at Byron Station. There were no new leaks, spills or releases at Byron Station in 2014.

E. Trends Wells AR-4 and AR-11 have shown an overall decrease in tritium concentration since first sampled in 2006. Tritium has been measured in Well AR-7 since 2012, however, tritium has been previously measured in Page 196 of 206

this well and it is believed to be the result of precipitation recapture, not the result of a new spill or leak.

F. Investigations There were no investigations that took place in 2014 as a result of groundwater sample results.

G. Actions Taken

1. Compensatory Actions No compensatory actions were initiated in 2014.
2. Installation of Monitoring Wells No new monitoring wells were installed in 2014.
3. Actions to Recover/Reverse Plumes No actions were undertaken to recover/reverse plumes in 2014.
