Nuclear Regulatory Commission Attention: Document Control Desk Washington, DC 20555 Response to the Request for Additional Information (RAI) Regarding the Haddam Neck Plant License Termination Plan (TAC NO. MA9791)

This letter forwards Connecticut Yankee Atomic Power Company's (CYAPCO's) response to NRC letter dated March 19, 20011. This request for additional information (RAI) consisted of twenty-seven questions arising from the NRC Staff's review of LTP Sections 6 through 8. The RAI questions and CYAPCO's responses to each question are provided as Enclosure 1 to this letter. Please note that the attached response to Question 2 is similar to that provided as the response to Question 51 (c) in the previous RAI. This response contains a table ("Listing of Radionuclide Sample Results from 60 Collected Samples") that was inadvertently omitted from the previous response and was subsequently faxed to the NRC Staff.

As a result of feedback received from the NRC Staff on our responses to the first RAI, we have taken more time to review our enclosed responses to the second RAI to ensure that all questions have been completely answered. This agreement was documented in CYAPCO's letter of August 15, 20012.

CYAPCO proposes to revise the LTP to address changes noted in the responses to the February 1, 2001 and the March 19, 2001, RAIs. Enclosure 2 to this letter is a matrix indicating the sections of the LTP proposed for revision, as a result of the attached RAI response. The LTP revision will be submitted within 30 days of receipt of NRC notice that our responses to the requests for additional information and proposed changes to the LTP are acceptable. The revised pages will contain the information submitted in these responses.

1.) NRC letter, "Haddam Neck Plant - Request for Additional Information Regarding The License Termination Plan (TAC NO. MA9791)," dated March 19, 2001.

2.) CYAPCO letter, "Response to the Request for Additional Information Regarding the Haddam Neck Plant License Termination Plan (TAC No. MA9791)," dated August 15, 2001.

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-84 Response to RAI Questions

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 LTP SECTION 5, FINAL STATUS SURVEY PLAN

1. Section 5.4.6. Selection of derived concentrationguideline levels (DCGLs), page 5-8

- Please addressthe following issues to permit review of the information on operationalDCGLs for a survey unit:

a. Pleaseprovide text explaining how the operationalDCGLs developed for a given survey unit will be applied to the site as a whole. According to the descriptionprovided in Section 5.4.6.1 of the HNP License Termination Plan (LTP) on developing operationalDCGLs, it appearsthat the operational DCGLs are restrictive, but the licensee could have different soil and building DCGLs for each survey unit. It appearsthat the site as a whole could have many different soil and building DCGLs. Explain how the licensee would make sure in the future, when the site is releasedfor unrestricteduse, that the survey classificationused in developing DCGLs would still be valid.

The discussion contained in Section 5.4.6.1 does not specify how the balance between building surface and soil DCGLs will be applied to the different survey units. It was the intent, however, to apply this concept to the same areas as those impacted by the existing groundwater tritium as depicted on Table 6-11, and Section 5.4.6.1 of the LTP will be modified to clarify this intent. In these areas, the operational surface DCGL will be chosen at a value equal to or less than the base case building surface DCGL. This selection will then result in the calculation of the operational soil DCGL, which will be less than the base-case soil DCGLs. The final base case DCGLs will be based on results of testing to determine the site specific Kd values used to accurately calculate site-specific DCGLs.

Survey area classification is an integral part of survey design and is dependent on the DCGLs applied. Therefore, the Final Status Survey process described by the LTP includes verifying that a survey unit is properly classified (Section 5.3) and includes a classification history in the Final Status Survey report (Section 5.9).

Section 5.4.6.1 will be revised to clarify this point during a future change to the LTP.

b. Pleaseprovide a map or table identifying which type of DCGLs will be used in each survey unit at the site.

Attachment 1 identifies which type of DCGLs will be used in each survey unit at the site. This table will be added to LTP Section 5.4.6.1.

2. Section 5.4.6.3. Surrogate Ratio DCGLs. page 5 This section discusses surrogateratio DCGLs. Provide information on the specific areas at the site where these DCGLs would be used and explain how the activity ratios between difficult-to-detect radionuclidesand the easy-to-measure radionuclideswould be developed for a survey area.

The areas where surrogate ratio DCGLs will be used are limited to Class 1 survey units such as the Containment Building and the Primary Auxiliary Building I

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 (PAB). Class 2 and Class 3 building surface survey units are likely to be free from measurable activity. For these areas, a conservative DCGL corresponding to Co-60 will be applied.

The first set of RAI responses dated June 14, 2001, from CYAPCO to the NRC included a description of the process for developing surrogate ratio DCGLs in response to question #51(c). This response is effectively repeated below with some clarification provided.

Current data indicates that there is variability in the radionuclide mix at the HNP site, and accordingly there is not "a representative radionuclide mix". CYAPCO anticipates that, after some remediation is performed, the variability of radionuclide mix will be reduced. The table below shows the relative distribution of radionuclides and the applicable gross DCGL as calculated using Equation 5-2 of the LTP for 61 samples collected within the facility without excluding radionuclides using the 5% and 10% rule for elimination of radionuclides, as discussed on page 5-12 in the LTP. (The Am-241 fractions indicated in this example data were not used in the calculation of the corresponding DCGL since other transuranic radionuclides would be present, and would be accounted for by either direct measurements or by a surrogate relationship as discussed below.)

These samples include area contamination smears, and smears and samples of systems/components. Since the anticipated contamination on building surfaces originated from contamination within systems and components, it is reasonable to expect that samples from contaminated systems are representative of the profile of the facility during the current phase of the decommissioning process. As indicated in this table, 29 of the 61 samples were directly from building surfaces.

An analysis of this data indicates that the beta gamma radionuclide mix results in a DCGL ranging from a low of 11,700 dpm/1OOcm 2 for 100%

Co-60 to a high of 23,300 dpm/1 00cm 2 for nearly 100% Cs-1 37. This data also shows that the presence of the other radionuclides have little impact on the gross DCGL where the variability is principally dominated by the relative fractions of Co-60 and Cs-1 37. A statistical analysis of this data shows that the average DCGL is 16,133 dpm/1OOcm 2 with a coefficient of variance (%CV) of 22.1%. This is a reasonably precise distribution that will be generally applied for gross beta/gamma DCGLs during the Final Status Surveys (FSS) using the following process.

a. Prior to performing an FSS, the beta gamma radionuclide mix will be established for a survey unit using a representative number of samples (typically six or more) from the unit or from other unit(s) if the source of the potential contamination from other unit(s) can be reasonably demonstrated to be the same as for the FSS unit.
b. If the average gross beta/gamma DCGL from the above samples is within +/-20% of 16,133 dpm/1OOcm 2 then a gross beta/gamma DCGL of 16,133 dpm/1 00cm 2 will be applied to the survey unit.

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084

c. If the above criterion is not met, one of the following actions will be taken:
i. Following a more detailed spatial analysis of the radionuclide mix distribution, the unit may be subdivided into separate survey units based on the spatial distribution. (For example, if one portion of an area is dominated by Co-60, unlike the remainder, this portion may be segregated into a separate unit.)

ii. The lowest DCGL from the observed radionuclide mix will be applied to the entire survey unit.

iii. Additional samples will be collected and analyzed to allow for a detailed analysis and documented evaluation of the radionuclide distribution resulting in the use of a specific DCGL for the survey unit.

iv. A DCGL of 11,700 dpm/100cm2 (corresponding to Co-60) will be applied.

d. In all cases, the applied gross beta/gamma surface contamination 2 DCGL will be bounded by that for Cs-1 37, or 23,300 dpm/100cm (from RAI #17 response).
e. For cases where the radionuclide mix cannot be readily established because of the absence of measurable contamination and the source of potential contamination cannot be identified with nearby areas, the gross beta gamma DCGL corresponding to Co-60 of 11,700 dpm/1OOcm 2 will be applied.

Am-241 fractions were not used in determining this DCGL.

2 These samples were from building surfaces.

In order to address the potential for transuranic radionuclide contamination for gross surface contamination measurements, one of two processes will be employed; the use of a surrogate relationship to the beta gamma contamination, or direct measurement of alpha contamination. Equation 5-4 of the LTP will be applied to establish a surrogate DCGL for each sample used to determine the radionuclide mix for a survey unit. This equation is provided here for completeness as:

DCGLDTD DCGLsuoga(e =1DCGLETD x (fDTD:ETD x DCGLETD )+ DCGLDTD where DCGLETD = the DCGL for the easy-to-detect radionuclide; DCGLDTD = the DCGL for the difficult-to-detect radionuclide; and fDTD:ETD = the activity ratio of the difficult-to-detect radionuclide to the easy-to-detect radionuclide; or the inverse of the beta gamma to alpha ratio, R, in the case of transuranic radionuclides.

The table below provides values of fDTD:ETD for beta-gamma to alpha ratios ranging from 10:1 up to 10,000:1. These fractions are then used with the formula above to assess the impact on the surrogate DCGL using the range of possible values of DCGLETD and a conservative value of 5

Enclosure 1 to CY-Ol-084 DCGLDTD for all alpha emitting radionuclides corresponding to Am-241 of 437 dpmllOOcm 2 (See RAI #17 response). As indicated in this table, a beta-gamma to alpha ratio of 500:1 or more does not change the surrogate DCGL by more than approximately 10% for all ranges of the gross DCGL.

This analysis shows that a beta-gamma to alpha ratio of 500:1 or higher would allow for the elimination of the TRU nuclides based on the 5% and 10% elimination rule discussed in the LTP. Therefore, the following process will be applied to assess the presence of TRU radionuclides for final status surveys (FSS).

a. Prior to performing an FSS, the beta gamma to alpha ratio will be established for a survey unit using a representative number of samples (typically six or more) from the unit or from other unit(s) if the source of the potential contamination from other unit(s) can be reasonably demonstrated to be the same as for the FSS unit.

These samples will be analyzed for TRU (using gross alpha or alpha spectroscopy techniques) and for beta gamma activity (using gross beta analysis and/or gamma spectroscopy techniques).

b. If all sample results indicate that the average beta-gamma to alpha ratio is greater than 500:1, then a surrogate DCGL will not be determined, otherwise, the following process will be applied.
c. A surrogate DCGL will be determined from the samples collected for the survey unit as described above. If this data indicates that the %CV of the average surrogate DCGL has a value of 20% or 6

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 less, the average surrogate DCGL will be applied to the survey area. If this criterion is not met, the following steps will be applied.

Following a more detailed spatial analysis of the radionuclide mix distribution, the unit may be subdivided into separate survey units based on the spatial distribution.

ii. The lowest surrogate DCGL from the observed radionuclide mix will be applied to the entire survey unit.

iii. Additional samples will be collected and analyzed to allow for a detailed analysis and documented evaluation of the radionuclide distribution resulting in the use of a specific DCGL for the survey unit.

It is anticipated that the above processes will be approved for use in the final LTP thereby eliminating the need for providing time for regulatory review prior to conducting an FSS for a survey unit.

The process described above will be included in a future change to the LTP.

3. Section 5.4.6.4. Elevated Measurement Comparison (EMC) DCGLs, page 5-16 This section calculates area factors for both the resident farmerand the building occupancy scenario. This section states that the dose decreases more slowly with decreasingarea for the direct exposure pathway than for otherpathways (e.g., inhalation,ingestion) in either scenario and, therefore, only the direct exposure pathway was included in calculationsof areafactors. Further,this section states that since Co-60 represents the limiting radionuclidein terms of direct exposure per unit activity at the site, only Co-60 needed to be used in calculatingarea factors for both scenarios.
a. Providejustification, by calculating area factors for all radionuclidesof concern at the site, that the area factor calculatedfor Co-60 by using only the external exposure pathway active would result in most conservative area factors for a survey unit. If this turns out not to be true, then provide area factors for all radionuclidesof concern by consideringall pathways active for both scenarios.

LTP Section 5.4.6.4 calculated area factors based upon Co-60 because it is one of the most dominant radionuclides expected to be detected at the HNP site. As requested, area factors for both the resident farmer and building occupancy scenarios have been re-calculated for all radionuclides of concern at the site considering all potential pathways of exposure. The re-calculated area factors differ slightly from the area factors presented in LTP Tables 5-7 and 5-8, which were based only on the Co-60 external pathway.

For the resident farmer scenario, the most limiting radionuclide is Eu-1 55. For the building occupancy scenario, the most limiting radionuclide is Mn-54. These two radionuclides have the smallest area factors because nearly all of their dose comes from the external pathway. Other radionuclides which also yield an internal dose component (ingestion or inhalation) have higher area factors. That is, their dose is reduced more by decreases in the contaminated area. For example, LTP Table 6-8 shows that Co-60 has an external pathway dose 7

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 contribution of 94.1%, while its internal pathway dose contributions from plant, meat, and milk is 5.9%. Considering all pathways, the soil area factor for Co-60 at 1 m 2 is 10.1. Considering only the external pathway would yield a slightly smaller area factor for Co-60 (9.8).

The area factors listed in the following table represent the most conservative radionuclides and will be applied to all applicable surveys. For comparison, the area factors from LTP Tables 5-7 and 5-8 are also listed.

The area factor tables in the LTP (Tables 5-7 and 5-8) and Section 5.4.6.4 will be updated to reflect the recalculated values. This will be included in a future change to the LTP.

b. To make the building occupancy scenario consistent in the approach used in deriving DCGL and elevated measurement comparison DCGL values, use RESRAD-BUILD in computing area factors.

Area factors for the building occupancy scenario have been re-calculated using RESRAD-BUILD 2.37 to be consistent with the derivation of DCGLs. LTP Section 5.4.6.4 will be revised to indicate the use of RESRAD-BUILD 2.37. This will be reflected in a future change to the LTP.

LTP SECTION 6, COMPLIANCE WITH THE RADIOLOGICAL CRITERIA FOR LICENSE TERMINATION

4. Section 6.1. Site Release Criteria,page 6 According to NUREG-1727, "NMSS Decommissioning StandardReview Plan," the direct (extemal-gamma) dose from the pipes will be in addition to the total effective dose equivalent from the residual radioactivityon the surfaces in the room. To verify that the dose to the average member of the criticalgroup is not likely to exceed the 25 mrem annual dose criterionin 10 CFR 20.1402, please provide text explaining whether all the associatedstructuralcomponents (embedded piping) from a building would be 9

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 removed. If not, please provide text explaining how the dose from the structural (ornon-structural)components that may not be removed during decommissioning would be calculated and incorporatedinto the dose estimation from other media (soil, building, and ground water).

CYAPCO considers non-structural systems and components to be anything not attached to, or not an integral part of, a building or structure (LTP Section 5.6).

Examples of non-structural systems and components include pumps, motors, heat exchangers, and piping between components. Experience to date at HNP has typically shown that non-structural systems and components will probably be removed during the decommissioning process. For instance, many non-structural systems and components have already been removed from the PAB and will be ultimately processed for disposal as radioactive waste.

CYAPCO anticipates that the amount of non-structural systems and components remaining in an area for FSS will be minimal. Non-structural systems and components that remain for Final Status Survey will be surveyed to Regulatory Guide 1.86 residual activity surface contamination limits (LTP Sections 5.6 and 6.1). Those non-structural systems and components that might remain would either have no history of radioactive contamination (e.g., Circulating Water) or would have a high probability of meeting the proposed release criteria for non structural systems and components without extensive remediation. Surveys to date (e.g., 1999 HNP Composite Dry Active Waste Analysis) indicate that the residual radioactivity in these non-structural systems and components will be beta-gamma emitting with Cs-137 and Co-60 being the predominate radionuclides by activity fraction.

The Regulatory Guide 1.86 release criterion for total beta-gamma activity is 5000 dpm/1OOcm 2 (LTP Table 5-9). The potential dose from residual activity residing on non-structural systems and components would result primarily from external radiation since resuspension of radioactivity at levels at or less than Regulatory Guide 1.86 release criteria would not result in significant airborne concentrations.

Furthermore, burial of non-structural systems and components on-site is not an option described in the LTP, so modeling other scenarios (e.g., resident farmer) for potential dose pathways is not necessary. Assuming that the total beta gamma activity is entirely based on Co-60 contamination yields a conservative value for direct (external gamma) radiation. The Regulatory Guide 1.86 release criterion of 5000 dpm/1 00cm 2 total beta-gamma activity is 43% of the Co-60 surface DCGL value of 11700 dpm/1 00cm 2 (LTP Table 6-24). Assuming the Co-60 surface DCGL represents the bounding gross activity DCGL it is highly unlikely that a non-structural system or component meeting the Regulatory Guide 1.86 release criteria would contribute more than 50% to-the annual dose criterion specified in 10CFR20.1404.

The Final Status Survey (FSS) package for each survey unit will describe the non-structural systems and components remaining and document the measurements and/or assessments used to demonstrate compliance with Regulatory Guide 1.86 release criteria including remedial actions performed. If the Final Status Survey for the survey unit demonstrates that residual radioactivity is less than 50% of the DCGL then the potential dose from the remaining non-structural systems and components will not be modeled and 10

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 accounted for towards compliance with the annual dose criteria. If the FSS for the survey unit shows that residual radioactivity exceeds 50% of the DCGL, then the contribution of dose from remaining non-structural systems and components will be evaluated. The resulting dose from remaining non-structural systems and components will be accounted for towards compliance with the Total Effective Dose Equivalent whenever the resulting dose exceeds one (1) mrem.

Like non-structural systems and components, embedded piping will either be removed or decontaminated to meet site release criteria. The first set of RAI responses dated June 14, 2001, from CYAPCO to the NRC included an approximation of the amount of piping expected to remain embedded in concrete at the time of the Final Status Survey. The length of piping is expected to be less than 200 feet as stated in response to RAI #34 (b). Much of the remaining embedded piping will consist of wall or floor penetrations (e.g., cable conduit) that are not expected to be very long (i.e., no longer than the thickness of the wall or floor that the pipe penetrates). These sections of embedded piping will be surveyed or assessed for residual radioactivity as described in Section 5.7.3.1.4 of the License Termination Plan. The FSS package for each survey unit will describe embedded piping left behind and document the measurements and/or assessments used to demonstrate the release criteria including remedial actions performed. The same method of dose accounting described above for remaining non-structural systems and components will be applied to this embedded piping.

This information will be included in a future change to the LTP.

Development of DCGLs for Soil, page 6 To permit review of the input parametervalues used in dose evaluationsand the derivationof DCGL values for soil in the L TP, please provide electronic files of the inputs and outputs of the RESRAD code used in deriving the base case and special case DCGL values.

The input data files and program output files are included on the enclosed CD-ROM. Also included is the original RESRAD v 5.91 file. Attachment 2 contains details regarding the file structure on the CD-ROM and instructions on how to install the RESRAD code. No change to the LTP is considered necessary in response to this RAI.

6. Section 6.4.2, ConceptualModel, ContaminantCharacteristics,pages 6-6 to 6-7

- Table 6-2 lists distribution coefficient values for radionuclidesof concern at the site. The justification for use of these values is that most are taken from NUREG/CR-5512, "ResidualRadioactivity Contaminationfrom Decommissioning." These default Kd values have no meaning in terms of their relative conservatism or appropriatenessoutside of the context of the DandD code. Provide analysis using site-specific distributioncoefficient values, or demonstrate that the NUREG/CR-5512 default values are appropriatein this approach.

The soil distribution coefficient, Kd, is an intrinsic property of soil, which represents the ratio of solute concentration in soil to that in solution under equilibrium conditions. In DandD (Reference 1) and RESRAD (Reference 2), Kd is used to determine the retardation factor according to the following definitions:

11

Enclosure I to CY-01-084 R=l+PbKd (DandD) n R =1 + pbKd (RESRAD) 0 In the above equations, R = retardation factor; Pb = soil bulk density; Kd = soil distribution coefficient; 0 = volumetric water content (nxf); n = total porosity; and f

= saturation ratio. [Note: According to Reference 1, "Evaluation of the retardation factor is based on total porosity, n, rather than the volumetric water content, 0, for conservatism... because the total porosity, and thus all sorption sites, comes into play as the pulses of moisture move through the surface and the unsaturated layers." Hence, use of the volumetric water content, assuming a saturation ratio of unity, as was done in the LTP, results in an identical retardation factor for both the RESRAD and DandD calculated values.]

The retardation factor itself is an integral part of the radionuclide leach rate, L.

This leach rate is represented the same way in both DandD (Reference 1, Equation 4.10, page 4.9) and RESRAD (Reference 2, Equation E.3, page 198).

Therefore, given that Kd is an intrinsic property of the soil and that this parameter is used the same way in both DandD and RESRAD, any valid input value that is applicable to DandD should also be a valid input to RESRAD.

The default soil Kd values given in NUREG/CR-5512, Volume 2 (Reference 3, Table D.22, page D-18) were adopted for use in the dose modeling. These values were adopted based on the following recommendation included in this NUREG (Reference 3, page 1-1):

"The default parameter values in DandD Version 1.0 have been defined through a systematic process of assessing the variability of each parameter across the U.S. and then defining default values that produce generic dose estimates that are unlikely to be exceeded at any real site."

Based on the above statement, use of these default values in RESRAD should therefore lead to conservative dose estimates.

It should be further noted that results of dose modeling for soil indicate that 17 of 20 radionuclides, potentially present at the site at the anticipated time of Final Status Survey, derive most of their respective doses from water independent pathways (Reference 4, Table 6-8), indicating no sensitivity to the adopted Kd value. Water dependent pathways determined the dose for only C-14, Pu-238, and Pu-239. Therefore, the adopted Kd values only influence the soil DCGLs for these three radionuclides.

Based upon the above discussion, the Kd values adopted for modeling from NUREG/CR-5512 are appropriate for use and should result in conservative dose estimates.

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084

7. Section 6.4.2. ConceptualModel. Contaminant Characteristics,page 6 Table 6-2 lists 20 radionuclidesfor which DCGLs are developed. According to NUREG/CR-3474, "Long-Lived Activation Products in Reactor Material," and NUREG/CR-0130, "Technology, Safety and Cost of Decommissioning,"many more radionuclidescould be associatedwith power plant operations.To verify that the list of radionuclidesfor which DCGL values were developed is complete, please provide text explaining why DCGLs were developed for only 20 radionuclidesandjustify the characterizationused for selecting these radionuclidesand not others.

CY developed Table 6-2 using available waste characterization data. The list of 20 radionuclides represents the significant radionuclides which potentially contribute to the residual dose from HNP.

The list is consistent with the regulatory guidance for radionuclides of concern in bio-shield wall concrete, rebar and surface contamination. NUREG/CR-3474, "Long-Lived Activation Products in Reactor Material", Tables 5.4 and 5.6, and NUREG/CR-01 30, "Technology, Safety and Cost of Decommissioning", Tables 7.3-5, 7.3-11 and 7.3-14 are used as references for this determination. Many radionuclides in the regulatory guidance are not applicable to the HNP radionuclide suite based on short half-life, low relative abundance, or inconsequential dose contribution.

Table 6-2, as provided in the License Termination Plan, represents a complete and conservative list of radionuclides for which DCGLs should be established for the HNP Final Status Survey. However, as a result of question 7 above, CYAPCO has reconsidered the list of radionuclides provided in Table 6-2.

Table 1, is a matrix of the radionuclides that appear in the subject NUREGs (with the exception of the noble gases) and those included in Table 6-2 of the LTP.

The following discussion provides justification for the selection of the radionuclides provided in Table 6-2.

Enclosure I to CY-01-084 Screening based on Half-life:

Considering the radionuclides listed in one or both of the referenced NUREGs, 25 radionuclides (shown in Table 2) have half-lives of less than one year. In this group,Y-90 is somewhat of a special case. Y-90 is the short lived daughter of a longer lived parent, Sr-90. Although no DCGLs are developed for Y-90, DCGLs for Sr-90 are included in the LTP, and the dose associated with the Y-90 daughter is included in the dose conversion factor associated with Sr-90. Mn-54 has a half-life less than one year, but since Mn-54 has been identified in several waste streams, it is listed in Table 6-2 of the LTP. Based on the time since the reactor shut down and the projected date for the completion of decommissioning, the short lived (i.e. T112 < 1 year) radionuclides present at shutdown will have gone through at least 5 half-lives. Any remaining concentrations of these short lived radionuclides, will result in negligible dose. In accordance with guidance in Appendix E of NUREG-1727 (Reference 8a), radionuclides contributing less than 10 percent of the dose limit can be screened out.

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 Screening Based on Low Relative Abundance (Limited Presence on Site):

Many radionuclides identified in the referenced NUREGs were not detected in any of the waste streams at HNP and thus were not included in LTP Table 6-2.

However, CYAPCO has reconsidered the longer lived radionuclides that were listed in the referenced NUREGs. (It may also be noted in the table below that some of the transuranic radionuclides listed in the LTP are not included in the NUREGs. DCGLs for Pu-238, Pu-239/240, Pu-241, Am-241 and Cm-243/244 as parent radionuclides or precursors to others in the actinide series are included in the LTP.) Insufficient time has passed since the nuclear fuel first arrived at HNP for a significant quantity of the daughter radionuclides to have accumulated based on serial transformation (e.g., various isotopes of Pb and U). The dose contribution from the daughter radionuclides has been accounted for as discussed in the response to RAI #20.

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 Although previously only identified in minute concentrations (Ag-1 08m only), the presence of Ag-1 08m and Ag-1 1 Om has been recently identified in selected components in the Spent Fuel Building. The presence of Ag-1 08m and Ag-i 1Om is readily identifiable based on their characteristic photo-peak, and there is currently no indication that these radionuclides exist in significant concentrations in waste streams beyond the selected components in which they were identified.

At the time of Final Status Survey, the material in the Spent Fuel Building, including the spent fuel pool liner will have been removed, and it is not expected that either of these isotopes of silver will remain.

1-129 is routinely part of the analysis of various waste streams. It is a specific radionuclide of concern in waste disposal facility licensing and it is identified on manifests for wastes in accordance with the guidance of 10 CFR 20, Appendix G.

However, 1-129 has not been identified above the analysis MDA in any waste stream for the last several years. Therefore, a DCGL was not established for 1-129.

Screening based on Dose Contribution:

Based on the data in the subject NUREGs, the radionuclides with half-lives greater than one year, that are postulated to exist in relative concentrations greater than 0.1% of the Co-60 concentration and not currently included in the LTP Table 6-2, are Sb-1 25, Na-22, Ba-1 33, Hf-1 78m, Sm-1 51, and Ca-41.

Ca-41 and Na-22 are postulated to exist in concentrations of as much as 5% and 3%, respectively. However, in the final evaluation of the potential impact of any radionuclide, both the relative concentration and the relative dose impact must be considered.

The radionuclides shown in Table 4 below were identified as being potential radionuclides of concern in one of the referenced NUREGs, and having half-lives greater than one year, and not currently being included in the LTP. The relative concentration for each of these nuclides was determined based on Co-60 in the bio-shield concrete.

Dose conversion factors for both inhalation and ingestion pathways were obtained from Federal Guidance Report 11. Table 5 shows that these radionuclides existing in the postulated relative concentrations collectively contribute less than 5% of the dose contributed by Co-60. Na-22 and Ca-41 each contributed less than 2% of the dose contributed by Co-60.

Concrete was selected as the basis for this determination because of the large quantity of concrete remaining at the time of the Final Status Survey and the fact that concrete would be the primary source for the activation products of interest.

These relative concentrations are representative of the activation products that may be evident in the concrete surrounding the core. They should represent the worst case for activated concrete.

All other relative activities are taken from NUREG/CR-3474 Table 5.4 Table 2.2-Ingestion Federal Guidance Report 11-Committed Effective Dose Equivalent Conversion Factors Table 2.1-Inhalation, Based on Table 5.8 of NUREG/CR-3474, some radionuclides may exist in higher concentrations in the imbedded rebar than in the concrete. Mn-53, Mn-54, Fe-55, Ni-59, Co-60, Ni-63, Zn-65, Se-79, Mo-93 and Pb-205 are each identified as potentially existing in concentrations of 2-25 times higher in rebar near the core axial mid-plane, than in concrete. Five of these ten radionuclides are listed in Table 6-2 of the HNP LTP. Zn-65 was eliminated based on short half-life, and the potential dose impact of Mn-53, Se-79, Mo-93 and Pb-205 can be inferred from Table 5 as negligible even at these higher concentrations.

In accordance with guidance in NUREG-1727, radionuclides contributing less than 10 percent of the dose limit can be screened out. The radionuclides in Table 5 collectively contribute less than 5% of the Co-60 dose and thus can be screened out.

In order to evaluate the significance of the radionuclides listed in Table 5 to external exposure potential, a similar analysis for external exposure was performed using dose conversion factors from Federal Guidance Report 12 for soil contaminated to a depth of 15 cm. This analysis is provided in Table 6 and indicates that if these nuclides were present, the collective exposure would also be less than 5% as compared to Co-60.

Table 7 provides a summary of the disposition of the radionuclides addressed in the above paragraphs.

DCGLs are listed in the LTP for Pu-239 and Cm-243. DCGLs were not listed for Pu-240 and Cm-244. A single DCGL was established for each pair (Pu-239/240 and Cm-2431244), primarily because laboratory radiochemical analyses do not report concentrations of these radionuclides separately. Typically, the concentration results for each pair is reported as a single value. Establishing a single DCGL for each of these radionuclide pairs precludes the need to estimate each separately, and allows direct comparison of radiochemical analysis results for a radionuclide pair to a single DCGL established for that pair. Basing the DCGL for Pu-239/240 on Pu-239, and for Cm-243/244 on Cm-243 is conservative. Based on Federal Guidance Report 11, dose conversion factors associated with Pu-239 and Pu-240 are essentially the same and the dose conversion factors associated with Cm-243 are somewhat more limiting than those associated with Cm-244.

Therefore, based on this additional review the only recommended change to the LTP Table 6-2 is to indicate that Pu-239 will be assessed based on Pu-239/240 sample results and Cm-243 will be assessed based on Cm-243/244 sample results. This change will be reflected in a future revision to the LTP.

8. Section 6.4.4. Base Case DCGLs, RESRAD Analysis, pages 6-8 to 6 This section discusses the RESRAD analysis and lists input parametersused in the analysis. To permit review of this analysis, provide the following:
a. Table 6-3 lists area and thickness of the contaminatedzone and states that these are conservative assumptions based on characterizationdata. The comprehensive site characterizationis not complete at this time; therefore, verification is needed to support the assumptions that the contaminated 2

area and thickness would not exceed 10,000 m and I m, respectively.

The LTP (Section 6.4, page 6-4) acknowledges that soil DCGLs are based on preliminary site characterization data. The LTP also indicates that site characterization will continue as part of the decommissioning process, and that if future site characterization data indicate contaminant characteristics are (non-conservatively) different from those stated in the LTP, then soil DCGLs will be revised as appropriate.

Data available at the time of LTP preparation included the results of site characterization activities completed in 1998 and 1999, where over one hundred subsurface soil samples, in some cases down to six feet in depth, were collected in Survey Areas 9302, 9304, 9306 and 9308 in support of plant modifications and site characterization activities. During the same time period, over two hundred soil samples, in some cases down to six feet in depth, were collected inside the RCA in Survey Areas 9307, 9310, 9312 and 9227. As provided in the response to RAI #13 that follows, generally samples taken during characterization activities in 1998 and 1999 have shown that the soil contamination is usually limited to the top 0.3 to 0.6 meters. A summary of data resulting from these site characterization activities will be provided in a supplement to the initial Site Characterization Report. The supplement will be made available to the NRC to allow verification of the assumptions that the contaminated area and thickness would not exceed 10,000 m 2 and 1 m, respectively.

Note that a contaminated zone area of 10,000 m is roughly the same amount of 2

area as is encompassed by the Industrial Area. According to Reference 2, an area of 10,000 m 2 is considered the minimum areal requirement to supply 50%

meat and milk diet. A value of 100% meat and milk diet obtained directly from the site was assumed, providing additional conservatism. Additionally, quantitative sensitivity analysis indicated that measurable sensitivity was observed for only 2 radionuclides (C-14 and Pu-238). Because preliminary site characterization data do not show contamination to be present on a contiguous basis over the entire Industrial Area, an assumed contaminated zone area of 10,000 m2 is believed to be a conservative assumption. Thus no changes to the LTP are considered necessary in response to this RAI.

b. Tables 6-3, 6-4, and 6-5 list soil density, total porosity, effective porosity, hydraulic conductivity, and soil-specific b parametervalues for the contaminated,unsaturated,and saturatedzones. According to the tables, the values used representsilty sand lithology and are taken from the data collection handbook. Explain why soil density is for sand, total porosityand effective porosity values are the upper bound values for silt stone, and 25

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 hydraulic conductivity and soil-specific b parametervalue is for loamy sand.

Explain why site-specific measurements were not made for these parameters.

As discussed in the Ground Water MonitoringReport (Reference 5), the overburden lithology within the Industrial Area can be generally described as a silty (loamy) sand. The conceptual site model uses this description to define the hydrologic characteristics of the contaminated, unsaturated, and saturated zones. Values for soil density, total porosity, effective porosity, hydraulic conductivity, and soil-specific exponential parameter were based on this general lithologic description. Table 1 summarizes the parameter, value used, and correct reference to the source. Please note that the LTP cites the incorrect reference for the values of hydraulic conductivity, total porosity, the soil-specific exponential parameter. The LTP will be revised to incorporate this correction.

Dose modeling results summarized in Table 6-8 of the LTP shows that water dependent pathways are dominant only for 3 of the 20 radionuclides (C-1 4, Pu-238, Pu-239) that are potentially present in site soils. Results of a deterministic sensitivity analysis, summarized in Tables 6-9 and 6-10 of the LTP, show that the sensitivity of the soil DCGLs to these hydrologic parameters is limited. Therefore, site-specific measurements for these parameters is not warranted.

c. Table 6-7 lists the mass loading for inhalationparametervalue from NUREG/CR-5512, Volume 2. The methods used to compute the inhalation pathway doses by the two codes are completely different. Justify why the value from NUREG/CR-5512 was used for RESRAD.

26

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 A value of 3.14x10 6 g/m 3 was adopted for mass loading for inhalation, based on recommendations provided in PreliminaryGuidelines for Dose Assessment (Reference 7). The stated purpose of this guideline is to provide a consistent approach for staff to evaluate dose assessments conducted to demonstrate compliance with the current license termination rule. Guidance is provided for both DandD and RESRAD analyses. In discussing analyses using RESRAD, the following guidance is provided:

"To ensure consistency between the critical group used in DandD analyses, analysts are encouraged to use the parameters listed in Table 2."

3 The Table 2 value for mass loading for inhalation value is 3.14xl0e g/m . This value was therefore adopted and used as input to RESRAD (v. 5.91) for the soil DCGL determination.

More recent RESRAD-specific guidance is included in ParameterDistributions for Use in RESRAD and RESRAD-BUILD Computer Codes (Reference 8). This document provides the basis for the RESRAD default probabilistic parameter set described in Appendix C of NUREG-1727. Argonne National Laboratory and NRC staff jointly developed a default parameter input set that may be used to perform probabilistic dose assessments using the RESRAD code.

Reference 8 includes a cumulative distribution function for mass loading for inhalation that is applicable to the RESRAD code. The mass loading input to RESRAD provides the time-averaged respirable concentration of contaminated soil and dust. The respirable portion of resuspended material can be represented by the PM-1 0 fraction of airborne particulate matter (particles < 10 pjm in diameter). Five years of annual average ambient PM-1 0 air concentration data for approximately 1,790 air monitoring stations across the United States and its territories were used to develop a cumulative distribution function. Based on the wide distribution of monitoring locations, these data are representative for the residential (versus commercial) farming scenario that is used in the LTP to develop soil DCGLs.

To assess the appropriateness of the soil DCGLs included in Table 6-8 of the LTP in light of more recent NRC guidance (Reference 9), RESRAD was used to recalculate soil DCGLs using a mass loading for inhalation derived from 3

Reference 8. The 90% quantile value (3.5xl 0-5 g/m ) was selected from Table 4.6-1 of Reference 8 to conservatively represent this parameter. Table 1 summarizes the results, which includes a comparison to the DCGLs included in the LTP.

Note that during the preparation of the response to this RAI, a minor error in the average wind speed input to the soil DCGLs was discovered and corrected. Use of the corrected wind speed value did not significantly change the soil DCGLs from those previously provided in LTP Table 6-8. These corrected soil DCGL values are provided as Column 3 of Table 1. LTP Table 6-8 will be revised to reflected the correct soil DCGLs.

As is evident from Table 1 above, there is no change in the soil DCGLs for 17 of 20 radionuclides when recalculated using a the mass loading for inhalation of 3.5x105 g/m 3. The recalculated DCGLs for Pu-241, Am-241, and Cm-243 are approximately 2% lower than the corresponding values included in the LTP.

Because these changes are small, because conservative assumptions have been used in the dose modeling, and because Pu-241, Am-241, and Cm-243 are expected to represent small fractions of the radionuclide mix, revising the soil DCGLs in the LTP is not warranted.

a. Table 6-5 summarizes the assignment of the water group parameters.

Hydrologicalmodeling was performed using the HELP code to determine site-specific values for the runoff coefficient and the evapotranspiration coefficient These coefficients were then used as input values for RESRAD.

To permit review of these parameters,please provide the following: (1)Text explaining the HELP code methodology and its appropriatenessin this case; and (2) electronic and hard copies of input and output of the HELP code used in this analysis.

28

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 The Hydrological Evaluation of Landfill Performance (HELP) model (Reference

10) is a quasi two-dimensional hydrological model used for conducting water balance analysis for both natural soil layers as well as landfills and other solid waste containment facilities. This model accepts weather and soil data that account for the effects of surface storage, snowmelt, runoff, infiltration, evapotranspiration, vegetative growth, soil moisture content, lateral subsurface drainage, and unsaturated vertical drainage.

The HELP model was used to simulate the water balance in the site soil only.

Parameters associated with the Landfill aspect of the model (i.e. leachate collection, liner leakage, etc) were not incorporated into the simulation. The surface hydrology simulation uses aspects of several other standard hydrologic models (Reference 10).

Specific local weather input for the model was obtained from various towns (Bridgeport and Windsor Locks, CT) located in general proximity to the site, where available (Note: the weather data is contained in a database which is part of the HELP model). This data included evapotranspiration data (Bridgeport, CT), Precipitation Data (Windsor Locks, CT), and temperature and solar radiation data (Bridgeport, CT). Site specific data included parameters such as soil type (silty sand), site area (15 acres), site slope (approximately 0%), and slope length (360-ft).

The code is considered appropriate due to the amount of both local and site specific data that was used as inputs.

The input data files and program output files have been included on the enclosed CD-ROM. Also included is the original HELP v. 3 file. Attachment 2 contains details regarding the file structure on the CD-ROM and instructions on how to install the HELP code.

No changes to the LTP are considered necessary in response to this RAI.

b. If the wateryield from the shallow aquifer cannot sustain the needs of farming and household use, the farmermay elect to locate his well in the deep aquifer in the bedrock region. Therefore, the possibility of getting groundwaterfrom the deep aquifercannot be excluded. In order to examine all the likely situations, the LTP should includejustification to exclude the possible location of a well in the deep aquifer (i.e., the bedrock).

As stated in the LTP, it was assumed that a water supply well completed in the shallow aquifer would more likely be the site water source than the deep bedrock aquifer. Currently, the water supply wells for the plant are located in the unconsolidated sediments near the river (Reference 11). These wells produce a yield of approximately 300 gpm.

Bedrock at the industrial area ranges in depth from approximately 10-ft below ground surface at the hillside, or northern border, to over 80-ft below ground surface at the Connecticut River (Reference 5). According to Reference 11:

29

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 "All of the metamorphic rocks described above are generally considered relatively poor aquifers. The transmitting capacity of these rocks is through fractures in the bedrock and not between individual grains, as would be the case in unconsolidated materials. The yield of 28 wells completed in open boreholes in the bedrock, located within a two-mile radius of the plant, ranges from less than 1 gpm to 30 gpm. The average reported yield of these wells is 11 gpm." A well producing about 300 gpm would be preferable for use by a farmer, to a well producing only 11 gpm.

In addition, the maximum ground water radioactivity has generally been observed in the shallow aquifer (Reference 5). (Note: The highest ground water radioactivity initially observed was in the shallow aquifer. This concentration, along with generally all other ground water radioactivity, in both shallow and deep aquifers, have decreased over time - however at different rates. The result is that at any given time higher ground water radioactivity may be observed in a deep bedrock well than in the shallow aquifer. It should be noted that the highest observed ground water radioactivity, in all wells, will be considered at the time of final status survey). Also, because of its closer proximity to the probable source of contamination, it is likely that a higher groundwater radiation dose would be obtained from a shallow water supply well, thus making this scenario the bounding condition.

Sensitivity analysis for the radionuclides shown to dose predominately from water-dependent pathways (C-14 and Pu-238), as summarized in Table 6-10 of the LTP, indicate the following:

" DCGLs for C-14 and Pu-238 had limited sensitivity to saturated zone physical properties (density, total porosity, effective porosity, conductivity, and hydraulic gradient), which would likely be different for the bedrock aquifer.

" The DCGL for Pu-238 had high sensitivity (sensitivity coefficient of 0.8) to well pump intake depth. This value would likely be greater than the value of 10 m used if a bedrock aquifer were considered. However, the 0.8 value indicates direct proportionality, that is, the higher value (or in this case, the deeper the well), the higher the DCGL.

This information concerning the basis for assumption of a shallow well will be added to Section 6.4.4 of the LTP. This will be reflected in a future change to the LTP.

10. Section 6.4.4. Base Case DCGLs, Sensitivity Analysis, pages 6-23 to 6 This section discusses sensitivity analysesperformed to evaluate impacts of the input parameterson the DCGLs for soil. Sensitivity of an input parameteris affected by several factors, including the perturbationrange used for the parameter. To permit evaluation of the conclusions about the importantparameters,please provide the following:
a. Text and references supporting the selection of perturbationranges. The potential range of distribution for certain parameters(such as Kd and hydraulic conductivity) can span several orders of magnitude.

30

Enclosure I to CY-01-084 According to Appendix C of NUREG-1727, "NMSS Decommissioning Standard Review Plan" (Reference 8a):

"..deterministic sensitivity analysis, calculates the change in the output result (i.e.

peak dose) with respect to a small change in the independent variables, one at a time" A normalized sensitivity coefficient, as used in the LTP is further defined as follows:

Sk-d dPk /P datk / atk where dP/dak is the marginal sensitivity of P to ak. Sk describes the percentage change of performance measure P to a 1% change of parameter ak. The derivative that defines the marginal sensitivity can calculate to second order accuracy using a central difference scheme, allowing Sk to be represented as Sk (P, - -,)A/aPo 2Aak akO The calculation of each individual Sk requires two model runs: one with ak = ak+1 to determine P+I, and one with ak = ak-I to determine P-1. This equation is essentially identical in form to the sensitivity equation given in Reference 9.

The above equation was used to generate normalized sensitivity coefficients, as discussed in Section 6.4.4 of the LTP. This equation was solved using a central finite difference scheme to determine the sensitivity about a point, or in this case the input parameter. Preliminary iterations were used for the range in perturbation to ensure that the sensitivity coefficient was approximate less than or equal to 1, and to ensure that a measurable response was observable. Table 1 summarizes the perturbation ranges for each input parameter examined.

No change to the LTP is considered necessary in response to this RAI.

b. Text explaining why a sensitivity value of 0.5 was selected to identify key parameters. This sensitivity value may have eliminated some sensitive parameterssuch as plantand meat transferfactors. Following the guidance in NUREG-1 727, the review should focus on the uncertaintyresulting from the physical parametervalues used in the analysis.

According to Section 6.4.4 of the LTP, a preliminary sensitivity analysis, using the RESRAD sensitivity graphical utility, was performed on 10 radionuclides selected based on their relative abundance at the site. The parameters selected for preliminary analysis were based on the dose fraction from each pathway (water independent and water dependent), as described in Table 6-10 of the LTP.

A quantitative sensitivity analysis was then performed on select parameters based on the preliminary results, as described in the response to RAI #10(a) above, to determine a normalized sensitivity coefficient, as described Reference 7. A value of 0.50 (and greater) was selected as the sensitivity coefficient value for which additional justification would be necessary, as summarized in Table 6-10 of the LTP. This value represents a 0.5% change in DCGL for every 1% change in the parameter analyzed.

33

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 Based on the 0.5 criteria, additional justification was performed on select parameters. However, if the criteria of any measurable, non-zero value for the sensitivity coefficient is applied, the following points are observable:

"* Any sensitivity coefficients relating to behavioral and metabolic parameters (i.e. ingestion, occupancy, etc) do not require any additional justification, as inherently stated in Reference 7 and Section 6.4.4 of the LTP.

" Sensitivity coefficients for parameters under the subheading of "Soil" and "Water" in Table 6-10 are generally based on site specific data (see RAI #8(c) regarding physical parameters and RAI #9(b) regarding well intake depth),

rather than assumptions, and therefore further justification is not required.

"* Sensitivity coefficients for parameters under the subheading of

""Contamination" in Table 6-10 are based on site specific and literature values (see RAI#7 and RAI#6 above) and further justification is not required.

No input parameters were eliminated from the analysis - the analysis was based in part on relative radionuclide abundance at the site and percent dose from water dependent/water independent pathways.

No change to the LTP is considered necessary in response to this RAI.

11. Section 6.4.6.1. Affected Survey Areas, page 6 Table 6-11 lists survey areas affected by existing radioactivityin ground water. Survey areas with underlying ground water contamination with H-3 or Cs-137 were defined as affected areas.

This designationincluded survey areas within 100 m of the existing contaminated plume. Please providejustification, including analysis of the hydraulic conductivity of the waterbearing units, for the assumption that the survey areas at distances greaterthan 100 m from the existing plume, especially down gradientareas,would not be impacted in the future (i.e., the ground waterplume would not expand to the regions that are not impacted at the presenttime).

As presented in Reference 5, the general direction of ground water flow is in an approximately southern direction, towards the Connecticut River. As shown in Figure 6-5 of the LTP, the affected areas encompass the entire plume area, downgradient to the river, and a 100-meter buffer zone on each lateral perimeter of the plume. Existing ground water monitoring data has shown that the plume is not expanding laterally.

However, as previously indicated in response to NRC RAI #24 dated June 14, 2001, additional plans for groundwater characterization and monitoring work have been provided in the "Phase 2 Hydrogeologic Investigation Work Plan" to support the existing data. No changes to the LTP are considered necessary in response to this RAI.

12. Section 6.4.6.2. Dose Modeling Approach, Step 1. page 6 To permit review of the code used to determine ground water dose contribution,please insert the RESRAD code version used in calculatingthe water dependent dose contributionsfor H-3 and Cs-137.

34

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 RESRAD v. 5.91 was used in calculating water dependent dose contributions. This will be reflected in a future change to the LTP.

13. Section 6.4.6.2. Dose Modeling Approach, pages 6-30 to 6 This section provides steps involved in the approach used to calculatethe special case DCGLs. The first step listed is to determine the ground water dose contribution from H-3 and Cs-137 on the basis of ground water concentrationcurrently observed. However, in assessing the potential radiationexposure for the ground water source, it is importantto: (1) use the maximum concentrationswithin the assessmenttime frame (1, 000 years into the future) (i.e., the releasingpotential of the deeper soil must be considered);and (2) include all the radionuclidesthat exist in the deeper soil. To facilitatereview of the approach,please provide the following:
a. Justificationthat the currently observed ground water concentrationsused in the LTP for Cs-137 and H-3 are the maximum values (i.e., in the future, ground water concentration would not increase).
b. Justificationthat the monitoring well from which the ground water concentrationsof H-3 and Cs-137 were obtainedis properly located,so that the maximum concentrationsin the ground water plume can be detected.

Current ground water radioactivity trends, based on existing monitoring well data, indicate a general downward trend in H-3 and Cs-137 concentrations, where present (see the following table for data). As previously indicated in response to NRC RAI #24 dated June 14, 2001, additional groundwater characterization and monitoring work has been proposed in the "Phase 2 Hydrogeologic Investigation Work Plan" to support the existing data. Specifically, additional monitoring wells will be installed and sampled to ensure that the ground water plume has both been bounded spatially, and that the maximum ground water radioactivity has been or will be detected.

It should also be noted that as stated in Section 6.4.6.3 of the LTP, the special case soil DCGLs considering ground water radioactivity will be re-evaluated based on the most recent groundwater radiological data at the time of the Final Status Survey.

14. Section 6.4.6. Special Case DCGLs, page 6 Table 6-13 provides DCGLs for soil adjusted by currentground water concentration. The concentrationlevels are used in calculatingthe adjusted DCGL levels. To confirm the direction of ground water flow from past contamination sources and to verify that the highest ground water contaminationis monitored by the existing or new wells, please provide text supporting that the monitoring wells with the highest contamination levels are located in the area(s)of highest impact.

Based on current knowledge of existing ground water radioactivity and historical trends (see ground water concentration table in RAI #13), it appears that the radioactive plume has been bounded horizontally. However, to ensure that an area of radioactivity in the ground water higher in concentration than currently, or previously observed, is captured, additional work will be performed as indicated in RAIs #11 and #13.

15. Section 6.5. Development of DCGLs for Building Surfaces, page 6 To permit review of the input parametervalues used in dose evaluations and the derivation of DCGL values for the building surfaces in the LTP, please provide electronic files of the input and output of the RESRAD-BUILD and RESRAD codes used in deriving the DCGL values for the base case and check cases #1 and #2.

The input data files and program output files have been included on the enclosed CD-ROM. Also included is a copy of RESRAD-BUILD 2.37. Attachment 2 contains details regarding the file structure on the CD-ROM.

16. Section 6.5.1, Base Case DCGL Development, Building Occupancy Scenario, page 6 This section discusses the base case DCGL development and includes the applicablepathways for the building occupancy scenario. Indicate whether the chemical form of tritium compounds was investigated. Because 38

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 exposure to tritium (H-3) is a concern, the chemical form of tritium compound needs to be investigated. When H-3 is in the chemical form of HTO, which can be releasedmore easily than other solid chemical compounds from the concrete, inhalationof the HTO vapor releasedwill need to be considered.Indicate whether exposure from inhaling HTO vapor was included. If this pathway was included in the dose estimation, include it in the list of the pathways provided on page 6-33 of the LTP.

Inhalation of tritium vapor (HTO) is considered in the derivation of the building surface DCGL for tritium. As with all radionuclides considered in the building occupancy scenario, the tritium vapor is concentrated into a surface source. No absorption of tritium into the depth of the concrete is assumed, allowing for maximum release of tritium vapor from the surface. Parameters used to evaluate this source and dose pathway are listed in LTP Table 6-14 and are equal to the parameters used to evaluate the inhalation pathway of all other radionuclides.

As shown in LTP Table 6-24, the DCGL for tritium is limited by the resident farmer (concrete debris) scenario, not the building occupancy scenario.

The dose conversion factor incorporated into RESRAD 5.91 and RESRAD BUILD 2.37 (References 14 and 15) for the gaseous form of tritium is 6.3E-8 mrem/pCi. This is equivalent to the value listed in Federal Guidance Report 11 (References 16) for tritium vapor.

LTP Section 6.5.1 will be revised to clarify that inhalation of tritium is included in the applicable pathways. This will be included in a future change to the LTP.

17. Section 6.5.1.2. Assignment of Code Input Parameters,pages 6-34 to 6 This section discusses the values of input parametersused in the RESRAD-BUILD calculation to derive DCGLs for the building occupancy scenario.Surface contaminationwas assumed for the concrete walls, and an area source was specified in the calculation. Since the building scenarioshould considerall types of contamination,please provide text justifying this surface source assumption. If the assumption is that all buildings with activationpotential would be demolished, please provide text explaining the assumption.

This RAI and RAI #21(b) are related and raise two similar issues. The first is whether the use of surface sources rather than volumetric sources is conservative for deriving DCGLs for the building occupancy scenario. The second is whether using the concrete debris DCGLs to address activated concrete would produce an estimated dose less than the release criteria for the building occupancy scenario. To derive the DCGLs, both surface and volumetric residual radioactivity were considered and the more conservative value was used in selection of bounding DCGLs. CYAPCO does not assume that all buildings with activation potential are demolished, although that potential is included in the evaluation, as it is for all buildings. The potential for activation is only considered likely in the Containment Building and the consideration of volumetric residual radioactivity allows for its presence in selection of the building surface DCGLs proposed for use at HNP.

By way of clarification, there is a distinction between building surface DCGLs and DCGLs derived using the building occupancy scenario. Building surface DCGLs 39

Enclosure I to CY-01-084 are derived by comparing the DCGLs from two separate scenarios and selecting the lower (more conservative) value for each radionuclide. The building occupancy scenario is just one of these two scenarios.

The process of determining DCGLs for building surfaces is shown in revised LTP Figure 6-6. This figure is being revised to clarify the process of determining building surface DCGLs using two scenarios: building occupancy and resident farmer (concrete debris). The two scenarios are evaluated separately and then the more restrictive DCGL for each radionuclide is selected. (Note: The excavator scenario will be deleted from the LTP. See the response to RAIs #22-25.)

Buildings at HNP will be surveyed for residual radioactivity while standing. The building occupancy scenario is evaluated to determine DCGLs for the option of plant structures left standing. The building occupancy scenario is described in Section 6.5.1. Once the buildings are released, CYAPCO may choose to demolish the structures and bury the concrete debris on site. To ensure that the building surface DCGLs are conservative for the case of the buried concrete, another scenario is evaluated. This scenario is the resident farmer (concrete debris), discussed in LTP Sections 6.5.2.1.

As shown in revised LTP Figure 6-6, the two scenarios are evaluated separately to derive two sets of building surface DCGLs.

"* DCGLs for the building occupancy scenario are derived using surface sources, which is consistent with Reference 1, Section 6.2.1. DCGLs for this scenario apply to surface sources and are listed in LTP Table 6-17 in units of 2 2 pCi/m 2 and disintegrations per minute per 100 cm (dpm/1 00cm ).

"* DCGLs for the concrete debris (resident farmer) scenario are derived using volumetric sources. DCGLs for this scenario apply to volumetric sources and are listed in LTP Table 6-20 in units of pCi/g.

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 In order to compare the two sets of DCGLs using consistent units, a method of converting the volumetric DCGLs to surface DCGLs is needed. The process of converting volumetric DCGLs to surface DCGLs is described in LTP Section 6.5.2.1.5 for buried concrete debris. LTP Equation 6-14 is used to convert 2

volumetric DCGLs (pCilg) to surface DCGLs (dpm/1 00cm ). For the HNP site, the assumption is made that the entire quantity of radioactivity contained within the volume occupied by the available fill area is distributed on the internal surface area of the Containment Building. LTP Table 6-20 (which will be revised to reflect the responses to RAIs #19 and # 20) lists DCGLs for the resident farmer (concrete debris) scenario in volumetric units (pCi/g) and also for the 2

extrapolated pre-demolition condition in surface units of dpm/1 00cm .

The next step in the process is to compare the two sets of building surface DCGLs and choose the minimum value for each radionuclide. Revised LTP Table 6-23 presents the two sets of building surface DCGLs. The limiting value (minimum) is selected and the controlling scenario is identified for each radionuclide. This process ensures that the annual dose to an average member of the critical group does not exceed 25 mrem, whether the buildings remain standing or are demolished and buried.

Revised LTP Table 6-24 again presents the limiting building surface DCGL and controlling scenario for each radionuclide. A column has been added so that the DCGLs are also listed as equivalent volumetric DCGLs, using LTP Equation 6-14 in reverse to convert from surface to volumetric values. These volumetric DCGLs will apply to all activated concrete sources found throughout the plant structures.

(Note: The footnote under LTP Table 6-20 will be removed. DCGLs from revised Table 6-24 will be used for activated concrete.)

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 With the building surface DCGL derivation process clarified and the proper volumetric DCGLs assigned for activated concrete sources, the issue of surface sources vs. volumetric sources for the building occupancy scenario can be addressed. To verify that the equivalent volumetric DCGLs listed in revised LTP Table 6-24 are conservative with respect to volumetric DCGLs derived specifically for the building occupancy scenario, RESRAD-BUILD was run with varying thicknesses of concrete sources. As the source thickness increases, the dose to a building occupant increases and DCGLs consequently decrease. Beyond a certain depth, which depends on the radionuclide and its emitted radiation, the thickness of the source becomes effectively infinite and no further decrease in DCGLs occurs. It was determined that a 12" thick source models an infinitely thick source for all radionuclides of interest and yields the most conservative (lowest) volumetric DCGLs. These values are compared to those derived above from equivalent surface DCGLs in the following table.

Enclosure I to CY-01-084 for building occupancy with 12" volumetric sources. Thus, CYAPCO has committed to decontaminating buildings to levels lower than those that would result using volumetric sources for the building occupancy scenario. The use of surface sources is conservative for HNP.

The LTP will be revised in a future change to include the previously identified changes.

18. Section 6.5.1.2, Assignment of Code Input Parameters,ParameterJustification, pages 6-39 to 6 This section discusses the selected values for the important parametersidentified by sensitivity analyses. To enable staff review of parameterjustification, please provide text and references supporting the selection of the perturbationranges.

As indicated in the response to RAI #10 above, according to Appendix C of the NMSS Decommissioning SRP (Reference 8a):

"..deterministic sensitivity analysis, calculates the change in the output result (i.e.

peak dose) with respect to a small change in the independent variables, one at a time" A normalized sensitivity coefficient, as used in the LTP is further defined as follows:

dPk I P Sk-=d~/

dak lak where dPl/dak is the marginal sensitivity of P to ak. Sk describes the percentage change of performance measure P to a 1% change of parameter cik. The derivative that defines the marginal sensitivity can calculate to second order accuracy using a central difference scheme, allowing Sk to be represented as s = (P+, - 1ý-) / PO 2

Aak I ako The calculation of each individual Sk requires two model runs: one with ak = ak+1 to determine P+1 , and one with ak = ak.l to determine P-1. This equation is essentially identical in form to the sensitivity equation given in Reference 9.

The above equation was used to generate normalized sensitivity coefficients, as discussed in Section 6.4.4 of the LTP. This equation was solved using a central finite difference scheme to determine the sensitivity about a point, or in this case the input parameter.

Preliminary iterations were used for the range in perturbation to ensure that the sensitivity coefficient was approximate less than or equal to 1. The ranges of values chosen to evaluate the sensitivity of key RESRAD-BUILD input parameters for the building occupancy scenario were relatively small, in 46

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 accordance with the guidance of References 3 and 8a, and are listed in the following table.

19. Section 6.5.2.1.3. Applicable Pathways,pages 6-46 to 6 Table 6-18 lists the applicablepathways for concrete debris under the resident farmerscenario.

Only the external radiation,inhalation, and water-dependentingestion pathways are included in the analysis. The reasons cited in the LTP for not considering the water-independentcomponents of the plant, meat, and milk pathways, as well as the soil ingestion pathway cannot be accepted. Given a time frame of 1,000 years, as well as leveling the concrete debris with soil after the decontaminationactivities, radiation exposures resultingfrom farming on the contaminatedarea should not be excluded from the dose assessment.Provide analyses including the active pathways of soil ingestion and water-independent ingestion.

As indicated in the LTP, the following soil independent pathways were not used for calculation of water-independent doses:

"* Meat

"* Milk

"* Plant

"* Soil Ingestion The LTP assumed that there would be no soil cover over the buried concrete debris - therefore farming of these areas was not considered practical (Note: it was assumed that plant could not be grown in concrete debris alone). Therefore, no plant growth equates to no livestock or humans eating plants containing residual radioactivity. Consequently, radioactivity in plants, meat and milk was not considered. Also, direct ingestion of concrete was not considered credible since no plants would be consumed.

47

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 However, in view of the concern that the assumption of no farming activities on the concrete debris may not be justified given the 1,000-year timeframe and in order to determine if the assumption was, in fact, non-conservative, the simulation has been re-analyzed assuming that farming activities occur on the concrete debris. An important key assumption that is implied is that cover soil will be necessary to allow farming activities.

Based on the 1000-year timeframe, there is the potential for three distinct scenarios for the water-independent pathways. They are as follows:

Scenario 1: Assume no cover soil and use only exposure and inhalation pathways, as presented in the LTP. This scenario represents the potential conceptual model where there is no cover soil present over the concrete debris zone. No other water dependent pathways (i.e. ingestion) are considered.

Scenario 2: Assume cover soil depth of 1-m and root depth of 0.5-m. This scenario represents the conceptual model where no roots from plants are in the concrete debris zone. All water dependent pathways are considered for this scenario.

Scenario 3: Assume cover soil depth of 0.5-m and root depth of 1-m. This scenario represents the conceptual model where all roots from plants are in the concrete debris zone. All water dependent pathways are considered for this scenario.

In addition, the following assumptions and/or changes to the input data file are made:

"* The cover material is assumed to have identical physical properties to the soil properties previously used (Reference 4).

"* A Soil mixing layer of 0.15-m is assumed (Reference 8)

"* Ground water fraction for livestock watering and irrigation is set at zero (for the purpose of reviewing water independent pathways).

Based on area of the containment building (1533 M2 ) where the debris would be located, it was acknowledged that obtaining 100% of the critical group's diet was not feasible, as that area is 15% of minimum area of 10,000 M2 recommended by Reference 2 to support 50% of the dietary requirements for the critical group.

Therefore, the actual percentage was calculated by RESRAD (based on the model output, the percentages for food derived onsite are 50% for plant food and 8% for meat and milk).

The calculated water-independent doses, considering ground cover and the three previously discussed exposure pathways, are summarized in Table 1 below (the highest doses are shaded for each radionuclide).

In general, the changes to the bounding DCGLs are minor, as can be seen by comparing the DCGLs provided in the "Concrete DCGL Comparison" table (see the response to RAI #20) to the DCGLs provided in the LTP for the building occupancy and resident farmer (concrete debris) scenarios. The following are noted:

" With the use of the assumption of cover (with roots growing into the concrete debris), the controlling scenario for one radionuclide (Ni-63) changes. The controlling scenario for Ni-63 becomes the resident farmer (concrete debris) where it was previously building occupancy. With that said, however, the change in the actual DCGL for Ni-63 is minor 2 2.50E+07 dpm/100 cm2 now compared to 2.55E+07 dpm/100 cm in the LTP.

"* For areas in which significant increases in the DCGL are realized with the use of Scenario #3 (i.e., Mn-54, Co-60, Eu-152, Eu-154, Eu-155) the 49

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 controlling scenario remains the building occupancy scenario. Thus, while the resident farmer (concrete debris) DCGLs will increase, the bounding DCGLs applied onsite will not change, as they are based upon the building occupancy scenario.

" The DCGLs for Cs-1 34 and Cs-1 37 increase slightly with the use of Scenario #3 (Cs-134 +17%; Cs-137 +10%); however, the controlling scenario continues to be the resident farmer (concrete debris) scenario.

" Four radionuclides (H-3, C-14, Sr-90, and Tc-99) whose DCGLs are currently controlled by the resident farmer (concrete debris) will remain controlled by this scenario; however, the DCGLs associated with this scenario will decrease.

" The remaining radionuclide DCGLs (Fe-55, Ni-59, Nb-94, Pu-238-41, Am 241, Cm-243) continue to be controlled by the building occupancy scenario and thus are unchanged.

Section 6.5.2.1 of the LTP will be updated to reflect the use of the conditions of Scenario #3 in calculation of the DCGLs for the resident farmer (concrete debris) scenario. In addition, current LTP Tables 6-20, 6-23, and 6-24 will be updated, as appropriate, to reflect the values calculated using the assumptions associated with Scenario #3.

Dose Modeling Approach, pages 6-47 to 6 Step 3 of concentration of the parent dose modeling approach computes the ground water radionuclide at the beginning of the assessment period. The maximum radiation exposure may not be observed at this time. When calculating radiation exposure, dose contributionsfrom both the parentradionuclidesand the progeny radionuclidesneed to be taken into account. The ingrowth of progeny radionuclidesmay shift the occurrence of the maximum exposure from the beginning of the period to a later time. In that case, DCGLs for the parent radionuclidesshould be derived using the maximum radiationdoses at the later time instead of the radiationdoses at the beginning of the period. If the radiation that doses at the beginning time are used to derive DCGLs, it cannot be assured the dose limit of 25 mrem/yr will not be exceeded in the future. Please include analysis. If potential dose contributionsfrom progeny radionuclidesin the progeny radionuclidesare not included, then provide justification that the future radiationexposure would not exceed the exposure incurredat the beginning of assessmentperiod.

However, it is feasible This daughter product may produce a higher water-dependent dose than its parent.

Isotope concentrations for ground water in contact with concrete debris are determined for each progeny at time "t" for the observed maximum activity.

The ground water concentration associated with concrete debris using total activity of the concrete/ground water mix can be calculated from:

  • 1000 C= (Total activity) 1+Kdpb where: pb = bulk density of concrete; and n = porosity of the concrete debris. This equation assumes that C is expressed in units of pCi/I and Total activity is expressed in units of pCi. The calculation of C requires values of pb and n for the concrete debris as well as Kd for each radionuclide. Values of n=0.30 (Reference 6 - value for coarse 52

Therefore, the original ground water dose for each radionuclide, as presented in Table 6-12 of the LTP, represents the maximum dose over a 100-year time period. Therefore, no change to the LTP is required.

55

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 The excavator scenario was one of a total of three scenarios (the other two being building occupancy and resident farmer-concrete debris) evaluated to verify that DCGLs determined were sufficiently low that the criteria for unrestricted release would be met if the structures standing or if the buildings demolished and the debris buried on site. The verbiage in the LTP is somewhat misleading, as the intent of the excavator scenario was to model only the uncovered concrete debris, not digging the debris up and reusing the debris for building material. Construction of a house (or any other structure) from the buried concrete debris is not considered credible. The indoor time fraction of 0.25 applies to the construction worker standing on the uncovered debris, not to occupancy of a building.

The excavator scenario determined DCGLs such that an unsuspecting construction worker would not be exposed to an annual dose exceeding 25 mrem if the concrete debris were uncovered. The most conservative source configuration is an infinite planar source with all the residual radioactivity facing upward. An occupancy factor (RESRAD-BUILD uses the terminology "indoor fraction") of 0.25 was assumed which corresponds to a 40 hour4.62963e-4 days <br />0.0111 hours <br />6.613757e-5 weeks <br />1.522e-5 months <br /> workweek for an entire year. Increasing the occupancy factor beyond the value of 0.25 for a worker is not reasonable. As intended, the excavator scenario tested whether exposure from an infinite slab is greater than exposure from all surfaces of a room (floor, ceiling, four walls). It was demonstrated that standing on an infinite slab gives a lower external dose than occupancy of a building of the same concentration. In other words, DCGLs were higher (less restrictive) for the excavator scenario than for the building occupancy scenario. This is shown in the original LTP Table 6-23 which compares DCGLs for the three scenarios evaluated to determine building surface DCGLs. None of the DCGLs for the excavator were the limiting values.

CYAPCO used the excavator scenario to conclude which configuration (infinite slab versus surfaces of a room) gave the greatest external exposure. Since the building occupancy scenario gave consistently more restrictive DCGL values than the excavator scenario, the excavator scenario was not used as input to any bounding DCGLs. For this reason, CYAPCO is proposing to delete the excavator scenario from the LTP. Changes to the LTP to remove the excavator scenario will be reflected in a future revision to the LTP.

24. Section 6.5.2.2.2. Applicable Pathways,page 6 Only the direct external dose pathway is consideredfor the excavator scenario. The considerationof only the external radiationexposure is not comprehensive and, therefore, cannot be accepted.

Radionuclides from the planarsource have the potential of being suspended into the air and being inhaled by the excavator. Furthermore,direct incidentalingestion of radionuclidesfrom the planarsource and secondary incidental ingestion of radionuclides deposited from the airbornesource cannot be excluded. Provide analysis for the excavatorscenario including all other relevant pathways.

As stated in the response to RAI #23, the excavator scenario was intended only to model the uncovered concrete debris, not its reuse. Thus, only the direct external dose pathway is considered. The intent of the excavator scenario is to verify that exposure from an infinite planar source is less than that from occupancy of a contaminated building (where the sources include finite-sized floor, ceiling, and walls) and from a farmer living above the debris. Including the exposure pathways of inhalation and ingestion in effect changes the excavator scenario back to the building occupancy scenario. As described in LTP Section 6.5.1, the building occupancy scenario considers external exposure, inhalation of resuspended contamination, and inadvertent ingestion 56

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 of contamination. Because of the inclusion of these pathways, the DCGLs for building occupancy are lower (more restrictive) than those calculated for the excavator scenario.

None of the DCGLs for the excavator are the limiting values, as shown in LTP Table 6-23 which compares the three scenarios evaluated for building surface DCGLs.

LTP Section 6.5.2.2 will be revised to delete the excavator scenario, as the building occupancy scenario bounded the excavator scenario in all cases. This will be reflected in a future change to the LTP.

25. Section 6.5.2.2.4. ExcavatorScenario DCGL Results, page 6 This section summarizes the results of the dose modeling calculations. The derived DCGLs are for the surface source that was formed by digging up the volume source lying underground (i.e., the concrete debris) and should not be applied directly as the concentration limits for the concrete walls priorto the demolishing. Pleaseprovide justificationfor using the plane source DCGLs as the building surface DCGLs.

LTP Section 6.5.2.2.4 summarizes the results of the excavator scenario only, not the results of all three scenarios evaluated for building surface DCGLs. As shown in the original LTP Figure 6-6, the process of determining building surface DCGLs consisted of the evaluation of three separate scenarios to address the options of plant structures left standing and plant structures being demolished and buried. The DCGLs listed in LTP Table 6-22 were derived as a method of ascertaining if exposure from the uncovered infinite planar source of contaminated concrete is less than from occupancy of a contaminated building and from a resident farmer living above the buried concrete debris. When compared to the DCGLs derived for the building occupancy and resident farmer (concrete debris) scenarios in the original LTP Table 6-23, it can be seen that none of the DCGLs for the excavator scenario were the limiting values. Therefore, the DCGLs presented in LTP Table 6-22 will not be used when surveying building surfaces, as they are not the most restrictive. The DCGL values in revised LTP Table 6-24 (either surface or volumetric, depending on the sources of contamination) will be used to establish compliance with site release criteria for buildings.

LTP Section 6.5.2.2 will be revised to delete the excavator scenario (as the building occupancy scenario bounded the excavator scenario in all cases), and this will be reflected in a future change to the LTP.

Enclosure 1 to CY-01-084 may allow contaminatedwater to move vertically downward and enterthe deep ground water system. Please provide text describing the watertable elevations for the shallow and deep aquifers at the site and what impacts may result from not pumping the shallow system.

Text and figures describing water table elevations for the aquifers at the site are described in Section 2.2.2 of the September 1999 Groundwater Monitoring Report and the May 2001 Phase 2 Hydrogeologic Investigation Work Plan. Both of these reports have been docketed and provided to the NRC Staff. Work is ongoing with the CT DEP to further characterize the groundwater flow and to integrate groundwater with a fate and transport model to develop a subsurface hydrogeologic model.

The external containment sump (ECS) in not a groundwater monitoring well, and is not representative of a specific location and depth interval. Rather, the ECS is a structure connected to the mat drain, which controls groundwater levels beneath the reactor containment throughout the original bedrock excavation. This excavation is very large in diameter, intersects numerous fractures as well as the overburden water table, and is pumped cyclically. The ECS is never at equilibrium as the pumps cycle on and off and the water level in the ECS fluctuates. The yield of individual bedrock fractures to the mat drain, their respective tritium concentration and travel time to the ECS varies. Although the ECS could be presumed to have a large averaging effect one could similarly surmise that the sampling time relative to pump cycle time could have a significant impact upon measured tritium concentration as the mat drain is dewatered and new flow is introduced. Therefore, cessation of pumping water from the ECS will likely remove the vertical gradient to the ECS and allow the ground water flow to reestablish an equilibrium water table elevation with flow toward the Connecticut River.

CYAPCO has proposed to discontinue the routine pumping of the external containment mat sump. We have committed to provide the CT DEP a detailed description of the planned groundwater monitoring of the sump and nearby wells prior to shut down of the sump pump. Monitoring results from this sampling program will be analyzed to determine if there is any impact from discontinuing routine pumping of the sump. A copy of the plan and the report summarizing the monitoring results and analysis will be provided to the CT DEP, NRC and EPA.

1. Purpose This document provides the basis for determining the concrete surface area and the available volume for concrete debris backfill to provide input into the Derived Concentration Guideline Levels (DCGL) calculations within the LTP (License Termination Plan).
2. Discussion The available volume for containment building debris backfill primarily consists of the full diameter of the building from 1'6" above meansea level to 3' below grade. The areas below the reactor vessel also provide volume for concrete debris. These areas extend to a depth of-19'6" below mean sea level but have a smaller cross section. The available containment building volume for concrete debris backfill was determined using construction: drawings and the PIB (Plant Information Book). See the references for a list of construction drawings used in this determination. The available volume for fill is provided in Table I below.

See the references fbr a list of construction drawings used in this determination. Areas were assumed to be empty space with all interference and components removed. Only the inner smufaces ofthe containment building were included in this determination.

The surface area for the containment building is included in Table 2 below.

3. Results and Conclusions The determination of concrete surface area and available volume for concrete debris: backfll has been performed to provide input into the DCGL calculations within the LTP. The resulting volume to surface ratio of the containment building is determined to be approximately 0.35.

Section 6 of the LTP describes the use of the volume to surface area ratio.

Initial :evaluations of the: Primary Auxiliary Building and the Fuel Handling Building indicate that the containment building will be the bounding analysis. Only the Residual Heat Removal (RHR) pit within the PAB extends below the water table. The RUR pit has an elevation of-I9' below mean sea level, and a cross section of 170 square meters. The available volume to fill to 3' below gradeis approximately 1750 cubic meters. The volume of concrete used as fill material is a small fraction of that of the containment building, approximately 3.5 times more concrete will be used to fill the containment volume than the PAB volume. For radioactivity levels associated with the DCGLs for concrete debris, the containment DCGLs will result in a substantially greater total dose and therefore bound the PAB.

The Fuel storage area is the only area within the fuel Handling Building that extends below the water table. The depth of the fuel storage pit is 13'6" above mean sea level. The pit has a cross section of 200 square meters. The available volume to fi to 3' below grade is approximately 90 cubic meters. No concrete fill will be placed below the water table. Therefore, the containment building volume will again be bounding
