1.0 Introduction As required by the Haddam Neck Plant Technical Specification Safety Manual (TSSM),

Section 6.7.3, this Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report for the year 2002 is submitted in accordance with 10 CFR 50.36a, "Technical Specifications on effluents from nuclear power reactors." A summary of the quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents and solid waste released from the Haddam Neck Facility is presented in this document. The material provided is consistent with the objectives outlined in the Radiological Effluent Monitoring and Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (REMODCM).

The information submitted is formatted to the general outline described in Regulatory Guide 1.21, "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactivity in Solid Wastes and Releases of Radioactive Materials in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents from Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants."

Haddam Neck is currently in the process of decommissioning.

In support of the decommissioning effort, radioactive liquid was processed and batch released from the Test and Temporary Tanks in 2002.

The radwaste system utilized filters and demineralizers to process radioactive liquid prior to release to the environment. The RCA Yard Drain System is categorized as a continuous release liquid pathway. The major contributor to this release point during 2002 was rainwater collecting in the system catch basins.

The collected liquid will cascade flow as a release to the environment. During this report period, an unplanned liquid release to the RCA Yard Drain System occurred in December 2002. This release is discussed in section 6.2.4.

As the decommissioning project creates new potential gaseous release pathways, baseline data will be collected and, if necessary, the release point will be added to the monitoring program. The Alternate Containment Access, Cable Vault, Containment Foyer, Tank Farm Tent and Terry Turbine are examples of miscellaneous pathways that are routinely monitored.

2.0 Summary The radioactive effluent monitoring program for 2002 was conducted in accordance with Haddam Neck TSSM section 6.6.4.

The results of the monitoring program indicate that the Haddam Neck Plant was successful in maintaining radioactive effluent releases to the environment as low as reasonably achievable.

A general overview of the radioactive gaseous releases to the environment during 2002 is summarized below:

  • The total whole body dose due to gaseous radioactivity released was 2.95E-03 mrem. This is approximately 0.06% of the allowable limit.
  • The maximum organ dose due to gaseous radioactivity was 6.37E-02 mrem.

This is approximately 0.43% of the allowable limit.

4 of 39

  • The calculated beta air dose due to noble gases was 0 mrad.
  • The calculated gamma air dose due to noble gases was 0 mrad.
  • The total gaseous tritium released was 1.53 curies.
  • The total gaseous particulate activity released was 4.49E-05 curies.
  • The total gaseous gross alpha activity released was 0 curies.
  • The total gaseous Sr-90 activity released was 0 curies.

A general overview of the radioactive liquid releases to the environment during 2002 is summarized below:

  • The total whole body dose due to liquid radioactivity released was 0.122 mrem. This is approximately 4.1 % of the allowable limit.
  • The maximum organ dose due to liquid radioactivity released was 0.192 mrem. This is approximately 1.9% of the allowable limit.
  • The total volume of radioactive liquid processed and batch released was 230,040 gallons.

The estimated total volume of radioactive liquid continuously released from the RCA Yard Drain System was 360,450 gallons.

  • The total amount of radioactivity from liquids released to the environment was 2.15 curies.
  • Of the total curies released, 2.13 were attributed to tritium and 0.02 curies from all other nuclides.

The effluent dose contributions for this report period are significantly less than regulatory limits and natural background dose contributions.

A review of the radioactive waste program showed 10,000 cubic meters of solid waste containing 3,030 curies of radioactivity was shipped offsite for processing or disposal.

3.0 Supplemental Information 3.1 Overview of the Radioactive Effluent Controls Program This program conforms to 10 CFR 50.36a for the control of radioactive effluents and for maintaining the dose to MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC from radioactive effluents as low as reasonably achievable. The program shall be contained in the REMODCM, shall be implemented by procedures, and shall include remedial actions to be taken whenever the program limits are exceeded. The program shall include the following elements:

a.

Limitations on the functional capability of radioactive liquid and gaseous monitoring instrumentation, including surveillance tests and set point determinations, in accordance with the methodology described in the REMODCM; 5 of 39

b. Limitations on the concentrations of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to unrestricted areas, conforming to the pre-1994 concentration values in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B (to 20.1 to 20.602), Table II, Column 2;
c. Monitoring, sampling, and analysis of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents in accordance with 10 CFR 20.106 and with the methodology and parameters described in the REMODCM;
d. Limitations on the annual and quarterly doses or dose commitment to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released from the facility to unrestricted areas, conforming to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I;
e. Determination of cumulative and projected dose contributions from radioactive effluents for the current calendar quarter and current calendar year in accordance with the methodology and parameters described in the REMODCM (performed at least every 92 days);
f.

Limitations on the functional capability and use of the liquid and gaseous effluent treatment systems to ensure that appropriate portions of these systems are used to reduce releases of radioactivity when the projected doses in a period of 31 days would exceed 2%

of the guidelines for the annual dose or dose commitment, conforming to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I;

g. Limitations on the dose rate resulting from radioactive material released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY shall be as follows;
1. for noble gases: less than or equal to a dose rate of 500 mrem/yr to the total body and less than or equal to a dose of 3000 mrem/yr to the skin; and
2. for tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days: less than or equal to a dose rate of 1500 mrem/yr. to any organ;
h. Limitations on the annual and quarterly air doses from noble gases released in gaseous effluents from the unit to areas beyond the SITE BOUNDARY, conforming to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I;
i.

Limitations on the annual and quarterly doses to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days in gaseous effluents released from each facility to areas beyond the SITE BOUNDARY, conforming to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I; and 6 of 39

j.

Limitations on the annual dose or dose commitment to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at points beyond the SITE BOUNDARY due to releases of radioactivity and to radiation from uranium fuel cycle sources, conforming to 40 CFR Part 190.

3.2 Maximum Permissible Concentration 3.2.1 Gaseous Effluents The applicable limits for gaseous effluents are expressed in terms of dose rate at the site boundary.

3.2.2 Liquid Effluents The values specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, (pre-1994 edition), were used as the limits for radioactive effluents released to unrestricted areas.

3.3 Measurements and Approximation of Total Activity 3.3.1 Gaseous Radioactive Effluents Gaseous effluent release pathways were sampled and analyzed weekly for tritium and noble gas.

Particulate release pathways were continuously sampled using air filters.

The particulate filters were analyzed weekly for gamma radioactivity, monthly for gross alpha and gross beta activity. Particulate filters exhibiting a positive gross beta were saved for quarterly Sr-90 analysis. The results for radioactivity from gaseous effluents and the effluent flow rate were used to determine the total amount of activity released.

The following estimates for the uncertainty associated with gaseous sample analysis stem from a composite of variances in effluent flow rates, instrumentation tolerances and low level counting statistics.

Tritium 25%

Fission and Activation Products 25%

Gross Alpha, Sr-90 25%

Noble Gas 25%

3.3.2 Liquid Radioactive Effluents Each batch release was sampled and analyzed for gamma emitting radionuclides prior to release.

Composite samples were analyzed monthly for gross alpha and quarterly for Fe-55 and Sr-90. The results of the composite analyses from the previous month or quarter were used to estimate the quantities of these radionuclides in liquid effluents during the current month or quarter. The total radioactivity in liquid effluent releases was determined from the measured concentrations of each 7 of 39

radionuclide present and the total volume of the effluent released during periods of discharge.

If required, the RCA Yard Drain continuous release pathway was sampled with an automatic composite sampler or by obtaining daily grab samples.

Composites were analyzed each week for gamma emitting radionuclides and tritium.

Analyses were performed to the minimum detection levels for environmental media.

Composite samples were analyzed monthly for gross alpha and quarterly for Fe-55 and Sr-90.

The results of the composite analyses from the previous month or quarter were used to estimate the quantities of these radionuclides in liquid effluents during the current month or quarter.

The total radioactivity in liquid effluent releases was determined from the measured concentrations of each radionuclide present and the total volume of the effluent released during the period of discharge.

The following estimates for the uncertainty associated with liquid sample analysis stem from a composite of variances in effluent flow rates, instrumentation tolerances and low level counting statistics.

Tritium 25%

Fission and Activation Products 25%

Gross Alpha 25%

Sr-90, Fe-55 25%

4.0 Dose Calculation Methodology 4.1 Airborne Effluents Maximum individual doses and population doses due to the release of noble gases and particulates were calculated using the computer program GASPAR II. GASPAR II is used by the staff of the NRC to perform environmental dose analyses for releases of radioactive effluents from nuclear power plants into the atmosphere.

The program estimates radiation dose to individuals and population groups from inhalation, ingestion (terrestrial foods), and external-exposure (ground and plume) pathways. Additional information related to the GASPAR II program is in NUREG/CR-4653, "GASPAR II -Technical Reference and User Guide".

The values of average relative effluent concentration (X/Q) and average relative deposition (D/Q) used in GASPAR II to determine population doses were generated using a meteorological computer code which implements the assumptions cited in Section C, NRC Regulatory Guide.11 l. These values were generated in 1999, the last year that real time data was collected. The X/Q and D/Q values used in the GASPAR 1I program to determine maximum individual doses were obtained from Appendix F of the REMODCM. Separate values were used for the growing season (defined as April-December) and non-growing season (defined as January-March).

Continuous mixed mode releases from the Main Stack (175 ft) include the Reactor Containment, temporary tent enclosing the tank farm and the Primary Auxiliary Building Ventilation. The Spent Fuel Pool Spray Cooling, Spent Fuel Building Exhaust and other miscellaneous monitored release points are considered continuous ground level releases.

GASPAR II calculates the maximum individual and population doses to the whole body, GI-tract, bone, liver, kidney, thyroid, lung, and skin from each of the following pathways: direct exposure from the plume and ground deposition, inhalation, and ingestion of vegetation, cow's milk, and meat. The doses are calculated for adults, teenagers, children, and infants separately.

To determine compliance with 10CFR50, Appendix I, the maximum whole body dose to an individual only includes the external pathways (i.e. plume and ground exposure) while the maximum organ dose to an individual only includes the internal pathways (inhalation and ingestion). All applicable pathways were included for the population doses.

The off-site dose commitments from airborne effluents are presented in Table 1.

9 of 39

4.2 Liquid Effluents Maximum individual and population doses from the release of radioactive liquid effluents were calculated using the computer program LADTAP II. LADTAP II is a NRC computer program, which performs environmental dose analyses for releases of radioactive effluents from nuclear power plants into surface waters.

The program estimates radiation dose to individuals, population groups, and biota from ingestion (aquatic foods, water, and terrestrial irrigated foods) and external exposure (shoreline, swimming, and boating) pathways.

Additional information relating to the LADTAP II program is in NUREG/CR-4013, "LADTAP II -Technical Reference and User Guide".

At Haddam Neck, the algae, drinking water, and irrigated food pathways do not exist; and therefore were not included in the totals. Doses are calculated for the whole body, skin, thyroid, GI-LLI, bone, liver, kidney, and lung. Calculations are performed separately for adults, teenagers, and children.

The off-site dose commitments from liquid effluents are presented in Table 2.

5.0 Evaluation of Results 5.1 Total Offsite Dose The dose commitments calculated using the release data for this report period are compared to 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I, in Table 3, and compared to 40 CFR Part 190 limits in Table 4.

The whole body and maximum organ total doses for each month in this report period are presented in Figure 9. The contributions shown were calculated using Method 1 in the REMODCM for gaseous and liquid contributions. As expected, the total dose increased in the months corresponding to larger volumes of liquid being released.

The effluent dose contributions for this report period are significantly less than regulatory limits and natural backgrounds dose contribution.

5.2 Gaseous Effluents The total activity released from all gaseous effluent pathways is summarized in Table 5. Each pathway's contribution to the total activity released is shown in Tables 6-9. The figures described below were used to identify trends for this report period:

  • The monthly maximum organ dose compared to the total year to date dose is presented in Figure 5. The calculations were performed using Method 1 10 of 39

in the REMODCM. The contribution for each month remained consistent throughout this report period.

  • The tritium released for each month from the Main Stack pathway is presented in Figure 6. Periods of increased tritium releases correspond with variations in containment ventilation, and environmental conditions (changes in outside weather, temperature inversions, conditions in the Containment).
  • The tritium released for each month from the Spent Fuel Building pathway is presented in Figure 7.
  • The release rates (uCi/hr) for specific nuclides from the Spray Cooling System are shown in Figure 8. The release rates are consistent for this report period.

The monthly doses calculated using Method 1 in the REMODCM were conservatively higher than the calculations using GASPAR II for this report.

The REMODCM includes adjustment factors for Method 1 that if used, would have corrected the monthly dose calculations to be within 22% of the doses calculated for this report (GASPAR II).

This indicates the methodology currently used in the monthly calculations includes the necessary conservatism to ensure limitations are not exceeded.

5.3 Liquid Effluents The total activity released from all liquid effluent pathways is summarized in Table 10. Each pathway's contribution to the total activity released is presented in Tables 11 and 12. The volume released from batch discharges during this report period are presented in Table 13. The figures described below were used to identify trends for this report period:

  • The monthly whole body and maximum organ doses compared against the total year to date is presented in Figure 1. The calculations were performed using Method 1 in the REMODCM. As expected, the doses increase for the periods corresponding to large volumes of liquid waste being discharged.
  • Specific contributions from individual nuclides released to the environment from batch discharges are presented in Figure 2. As expected, increases in radioactivity released corresponded to larger volumes of water being discharged.
  • Specific contributions from individual nuclides released to the environment from the RCA Yard Drain System are presented in Figures 3 and 4. The major contributor to this release point is from rainfall that collects in the catch basins located in the RCA. A conservative estimate for the effluent volume is used in release calculations for this pathway.

11 of 39

The monthly doses calculated using Method 1 in the REMODCM were consistent with the calculations using LADTAP II for this report. The summed monthly doses calculated using Method 1 were within approximately 1% of the Whole Body and Maximum Organ calculations using LADTAPII for the year 2002. This indicates the methodology currently used in the monthly calculations includes the necessary conservatism to ensure limitations are not exceeded.

5.4 Solid Wastes The quantities of radioactive material shipped offsite for processing or disposal are summarized in Table 14.

6.0 Related Information 6.1 Radiation Monitors Out of Service for Greater than Thirty Days.

None 6.2 Radioactive Effluent Condition Reports 6.2.1 The Spent Fuel Building Flow Rate Monitor (FIT-1104) was not calibrated within 18 months as required by the REMODCM.

A procedure was developed and the flow rate monitor was calibrated.

Three Condition Reports (02-0137, 02-0200 and 02-0203) were generated to resolve the lack of procedure, failed calibration and missed frequency for FIT-1104.

6.2.2 A discrepancy between Technical Specification 6.6.4.c and the REMODCM was identified.

The Technical Specification references 10CFR20.1302 and the REMODCM references 10CFR20.106. Since Connecticut Yankee utilizes pre-1994 10CFR20 tables for the Maximum Permissible Concentrations allowed for release to the environment, the reference to 10CFR20.1302 was an error that occurred while processing Technical Specifications Amendment 195.

A Condition Report (02-163) was generated in response to this finding and is being resolved by the Connecticut Yankee Licensing Department.

6.2.3 The monthly effluent dose was miscalculated for April 2002.

The calculation was performed using a higher release rate than actually occurred.

The calculation was corrected. A Condition Report (02-0262) was generated in response to the finding.

12 of 39

6.2.4 The demineralized water source being used for hydro lasing in the Reactor Cavity was radioactively contaminated.

This resulted in an unplanned liquid release to the RCA Yard Drain System.

The discharged liquid was collected in Yard Drain 6, a monitored liquid effluent release point in the REMODCM. The water supply to the hydro laser was from the Condensate Storage Tank (CST), which contained demineralized water at the start of the hydro lasing operations.

A siphoning affect from the hydro laser hose located in the Reactor Cavity to the CST resulted in the CST becoming contaminated with Reactor Cavity liquid. A liquid dose calculation was performed for the release and included in the monthly effluent dose calculations for December 2002. A Condition Report (03-005) was generated in response to the CST contamination and the eventual unplanned release.

6.2.5 The 4t quarter 2002 Yard Drain 6 composite analysis for Fe-55 did not meet the required REMODCM LLD.

An offsite vendor laboratory performed the analysis for Connecticut Yankee. Additional sample was shipped to the laboratory and the re-analysis for Fe-55 was below the REMODCM required LLD. A Condition Report (03-0143) was generated to document the re-analysis on the composite sample.

7.0 Bechtel Health Physics Technical Support Document Bechtel Health Physics Technical Support Document, 24265-000-G65-GEHH-PO138, "Radioactivity Effluent Analysis for the Year 2002", was generated to document the calculations performed for this report.

Site specific, environmental information and other input data that was necessary to complete this report are listed and discussed in the technical support document.

8.0 REMODCM Revisions in the Year 2002 Revision 15 to the REMODCM was issued June 11, 2002. A copy of revision 15 and the information to support the changes has been included with the submission of this annual report.

Pagebo.

e escrition of Chaige & Reason REMM CHANGES Table of D.2, D. 3/4 TOC I of Description of Change:

Contents 2

Renumber pages to be consistent with section page numbers in the manual.

Basis for Change:

Table of Content page manual numbers did not match section page numbers in the manual.

Table of H.2 TOC 2 of Description of Change:

Contents 2

Added new Figure H.2 to list of figures Basis for Change:

List new figure in Table of Contents Various Editorial Corrections Various Description of Changes Removal of extra spaces between words throughout document.

Basis for Change: Clean up document A.2 Responsibilities A-2 Description of Change:

Changed title of Unit Director to Unit Manager.

Changed sentence "All Changes to this manual shall be reviewed by the Plant Operations Review Committee prior to implementation.." to "All changes to this manual shall be independently reviewed and approved by the Unit Manager prior to implementation."

Basis for Change:

This change to Unit Manager is in accordance with changes described in Technical Specification Amendment No. 196, approved by the NRC on 12/4/2001. The change to independent review and Unit Manager approval was used to more accurately reflect the Technical Specifications requirement in section 6.5.1 and 6.5.2..

B. 1 Definitions B-1 Description of Change:

In Revision 14 to the REM/ODCM, the basis and justification for removing the word "ANALOG" was provided. However, removal of the word "ANALOG" for 2 of 3 uses was inadvertently overlooked in this paragraph. It has been removed here in Rev. 15.

Basis for Change:

From Rev 14, Change 00-03; Delete "ANALOG" from the definition. This description does not reflect the equipment in place, which utilizes digital signals & outputs.

List of Changes Documented in Revision 15 to Haddam Neck REMIODCM Section No.

Section TiWtle aPagef No.

Descriptiofi of Change & Reason Table B.1 Frequency Notation B-4 Description of Change: Footnote to Surveillance "Frequency Notation" was included in Revision 14 to the REMODCM.

This change was not re-routed procedurally for formal documented review and is added here to document the procedurally required review (ACP1.2-2.48).

Basis for Change: This 25% extension to surveillances was, and still is, in the Technical Specifications. When RETS was cut and pasted into the REMODCM in Rev 12, this 25%

extension was inadvertently omitted. It was restored in revision 14.

Table C-L.A Radioactive Liquid C-2 Description of Change:

Waste Sampling &

Deleted LLD for Ce-144 (T1/2 = 284 days).

Analysis Program Created new superscript and notation "i" which defines the requirements for temporary tank discharges. Deleted superscript and notation Basis for Change: There is no longer a source term for Ce-144. Ce-144 was not detected in the recent operating years prior to shutdown, or in effluents since permanent shutdown in 1996.

Since shutdown, any remaining Ce-144 present (but not detected) in effluent streams has gone through 7.0 half lives and is now less than 0.2 %

"g" from strontium 90, iron 55, & alpha, and Analysis Program deleted footnote "g" from table notations.

Basis for Change: Mix of nuclides used previously to trigger Sr-90, Fe-55 and/or alpha analysis does not apply anymore with the bulk of water discharged via this pathway representing groundwater under decommissioning conditions. This change is more conservative requiring Sr-90 & Fe-55 analysis quarterly, and alpha monthly, regardless of the concentration of gamma emitters.

gamma emitters, tritium, gross alpha, Sr-90 and Analysis Program Fe-55 to more conservative values for yard drain 6. Inserted superscript "b" to weekly, monthly and quarterly composites.

Basis for Change: This change is more conservative requiring lower LLDs. These nuclides can be routinely detected down to these values. Notation "b" defines a composite sample.

Table C-I Radioactive Liquid C-3 Description of Change: Added notation to "e" Notations Waste Sampling &

that "Sampling at Yard Drain #6 (catch basin Analysis Program

Changed control sample collection frequency from six consecutive weeklies, to six consecutive grab samples collected biweekly.

Basis for Change: This change provides more sampling flexibility, and a sample collection period that more closely mirrors the collection frequency for the indicator sample at location 28I. It permits synchronization with all remaining off site sample collection on a biweekly frequency. Weekly sample collection supported detection of short-lived activity during operation (1-131, 1-133, Co-58, for example). Following permanent shutdown, the source terms for these diminished and these have not been detected in plant effluents.

TABLE NOTATIONS

a.

The lower limit of detection (LLD) is the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will be detected with 95% probability with 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

For a particular measurement system (which may include radiochemical separation):

LLD=

4.66Sb E. V (2.22E + 06). Y exp(-IAt) where:

LLD is the lower limit of detection as defined above (microcuries per unit volume)

Sb is the standard deviation of the background counting rate, or of the counting rate of a blank sample, as appropriate (counts per minute)

E is the counting efficiency (counts per transformation)

V is the sample size (volume) 2.22E+06 is the number of transformations per minute per microcurie Y is the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable)

X is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide At is the elapsed time between sample collection (or midpoint of sample collection) and time of counting.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an a posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.

b.

A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is proportional to the quantity of liquid waste discharged and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen which is representative of the liquid released.

c.

Prior to analysis, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite sample to be representative of the effluents released.

d.

The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification will apply are exclusively the following nuclides: Mn-54, Co-60, Zn-65, Cs-134 and Cs-137. This does not mean that only these nuclides are to be reported.

Other nuclides that are identified shall be reported. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses should not be reported as being present at the LLD level. When unusual circumstances result in an a priori LLD being higher than required, the reasons shall be documented in the Annual Radioactive Effluent Report.

e.

A grab sample will be obtained daily at least five (5) days per week. A composite sampler may be used in lieu of the daily grab sample for Yard Drain #6.

Grab samples or composite sampler operation at yard Drain 6 (catch basin 11) is only required when the Mat Sump is operating.

C-3 REMM

JUN 1 1 2002 Revision 15

h.

Prior to sampling, each batch shall be isolated; at least two tank volumes shall be recirculated or equivalent mixing provided.

i.

Releases can be made from other sources (e.g., temporary tanks) as long as these have met the programmatic requirements including, but not limited to monitoring through R-22 setpoints and release rate determination action statements, etc.

C-4 REMM

JUN 1 1 2002 Revision 1 5 C.2 Liquid Radioactive Waste Treatment Monthly doses due to liquid effluents to unrestricted areas shall be projected at least once per 31 days only if one or ALL APPLICABLE LIQUID RADIOACTIVE WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS will not be routinely operated.

When the projected monthly dose due to liquid effluents exceeds 0.06 mrem to the total body or 0.2 mrem to any organ, ALL APPLICABLE LIQUID RADIOACTIVE WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS will be operated.

With radioactive liquid waste being discharged without treatment and in excess of the above limits, prepare and submit to the Commission, within 30 days, pursuant to Subsection F.3, a special report that includes the following information:

a.

Explanation of why liquid radwaste was being discharged without treatment, identification of any inoperable equipment or subsystems, and the reason for the inoperability;

b.

Actions taken to restore the inoperable equipment to OPERABLE status; and

c.

Summary description of actions taken to prevent a recurrence.

Figure H-2, "Liquid Radwaste System" represents how the liquid radwaste system is configured at the time of this revision. Since the plant is undergoing decommissioning, tanks will be abandoned and dismantled. Temporary tanks may be used to replace them. This will not require a change to this figure (REMODCM) prior to use of these. This figure will be updated, if required, to reflect the current configuration of the liquid radwaste system, each time the REMODCM is revised.

JUN11 2002 Revision 15 C.3/4 LIQUID EFFLUENT CONTROLS AND SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS CONCENTRATION CONTROLS C.3.1 The concentration of radioactive material released from the site (see Figure H-1) shall not exceed the concentrations specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2.

APPLICABILITY: At all times.

ACTION:

With the concentration of radioactive material released from the site exceeding the above limits, restore the concentration to within the above limits within 15 minutes.

SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS C.4.1.1 Radioactive liquid wastes shall be sampled and analyzed in accordance with the sampling and analysis program specified in Section I of the REMODCM.

C.4.1.2 The results of the radioactive analysis shall be used in accordance with the methods of Section II of the REMODCM to assure that the concentration of the point of release are maintained within the limits of Control C.3.1.

C-6 REMM

JUN 1 1 2002 Revision 15 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASIS 0.3/4 LIQUID EFFLUENTS 0.3/4.1 CONCENTRATION This Control is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents from the site will be less than the concentration levels specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2. This limitation provides additional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water outside the site will result in exposures within: (1) the Section ll.A design objectives of Appendix 1, 10 CFR Part 50, to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC, and (2) the limits of 10 CFR 20.106(e) to the population.

C-7 REMM

JUN 1 2002 Revision 15 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS DOSE, LIQUIDS CONTROLS C.3.2 The dose or dose commitment to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released from the site (see Figure H-1) shall be limited:

a.

During any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the total body and to less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ, and

b.

During any calendar year to less than or equal to 3 mrem to the total body and to less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ.

APPLICABILITY: At all times.

ACTION:

a.

With the calculated dose from the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents exceeding any of the above limits, prepare and submit to the Commission within 30 days, pursuant to Control F.3, a Special Report which identifies the cause(s) for exceeding the limit(s) and defines the corrective actions to be taken to reduce the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents during the remainder of the current calendar quarter and during the remainder of the calendar year so that the cumulative dose or dose commitment to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from such release during the calendar year is within 3 mrem to the total body and 10 mrem to any organ.

SURVEILANCE REQUIREMENTS C.4.2.1 Cumulative dose contributions for the current calendar quarter and current calendar year from liquid effluents shall be determined in accordance with Section II of the REMODCM once every 31 days.

C.4.2.2 Relative accuracy or conservatisms of the calculations shall be confirmed by performance of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program as detailed in Section I of the REMODCM.

C-8 REMM

JUN 11 2002 Revision 15 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASIS 0.3/4 LIQUID EFFLUENTS 0.3/4.2 DOSE, LIQUIDS This Control is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.A, III.A, and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The Limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable".

The dose calculation methodology and parameters in the REMODCM implement the requirements in Section 1Il.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I is to be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The equations specified in the REMODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive materials in liquid effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977, and Regulatory Guide 1.1 13, "Estimating Aquatic Dispersion of Effluents from Accidental and Routine Reactor Releases for the Purpose of Implementing Appendix I," April 1977.

JUN 11 2002 Revision 15 INSTRUMENTATION RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION CONTROLS C.3.3 The radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channels shown in Table C.3.3 shall be OPERABLE with applicable Alarm/Trip Setpoints set to ensure that the limits of Control C.3.1 are not exceeded.

The Alarm/Trip Setpoints shall be determined in accordance with methodology and parameters described in the OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL (ODCM).

APPLICABILITY: At all times.

ACTION:

a.

With a radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channel Alarm/Trip Setpoint less conservative than required by the above Control, without delay suspend the release of radioactive liquid effluents monitored by the affected channel, or declare the channel inoperable, or change the Alarm/Trip Setpoint so it is acceptably conservative.

b.

The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of an individual offsite to annual average concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table II of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR 20.106(b)). For individuals who may at times be within the SITE BOUNDARY, the occupancy of that individual will be sufficiently low to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the SITE BOUNDARY. The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to an individual at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY to less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the total body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin.

RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING E.1 Samplinq and Analysis The radiological sampling and analyses provide measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from plant operation.

This monitoring program thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways. Program changes may be made based on operational experience.

The sampling and analyses shall be conducted as specified in Table E-1 for the locations shown in Appendix G of the ODCM. Deviations are permitted from the required sampling schedule if specimens are unobtainable due to hazardous conditions, seasonal unavailability, malfunction of automatic sampling equipment or other legitimate reasons.

If specimens are unobtainable due to sampling equipment malfunction, every effort shall be made to complete corrective action prior to the end of the next sampling period.

All deviations from the sampling schedule shall be documented in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report pursuant to Section F.1.

It is recognized that, at times, it may not be possible or practicable to continue to obtain samples of the media of choice (excluding milk) at the most desired location or time.

In these instances suitable alternative media and locations may be chosen for the particular pathways in question and appropriate substitutions made within 30 days in the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program.

If the Land Use Census identifies milking animals within 8 km (5 miles) from the site, milk sampling shall be initiated as follows:

Samples from milking animals shall be collected from 3 indictor locations within 5 km (3 miles) from the site at the locations calculated to have the highest dose potential.

If no milking animals are located within 5 km (3 miles), then samples from milking animals shall be collected from 3 indicator locations between 5 to 8 km (3 to 5 miles) from the site at locations calculated to exceed 1 mrem per year.

(The dose shall be calculated for the maximum organ and age group, using the methodology and parameters in the ODCM.

If any samples of milking animals are collected, 1 control sample shall be collected from milking animals at a location 15 km to 30 km (10 to 18 miles) from the site and in the least prevalent wind direction.

Any and all changes to milking animal sample locations shall be documented in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report which is submitted to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission prior to May 1 of each year.

Changes to sampling locations shall be identified in a revised table and figure(s) in Appendix G of the ODCM.

JUN11 2002 Revision 15 If the level of radioactivity in an environmental sampling medium at one or more of the locations specified in Table E-1 exceeds the report levels of Table E-2 when averaged over any calendar quarter, prepare and submit to the Commission within 30 days from the end of the affected calendar quarter, a Special Report which includes an evaluation of any release conditions, environmental factors or other aspects which caused the limits of Table E-2 to be exceeded. When more than one of the radionuclides in Table E-2 are detected in the sampling medium, this report shall be submitted if:

concentration (1) concentration (2)

+.... Ž1.0 reporting level (1) reporting level (2)

When radionuclides other than those in Table E-2 are detected and are the result of plant effluents, this report shall be submitted if the potential annual dose to an individual is equal to or greater than the appropriate calendar year limit of the REMODCM. This report is not required if the measured level of radioactivity was not the result of plant effluents, however, in such an event, the condition shall be reported and described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

The detection capabilities required by Table E-3 are state-of-the-art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an a posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement. All analyses shall be performed in such a manner that the stated LLDs will be achieved under routine conditions.

Occasionally background fluctuations, unavoidably small sample sizes, the presence of interfering nuclides, or other uncontrollable circumstances may render these LLDs unachievable.

In such cases, the contributing factors will be identified and described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

Milk sampling and analysis is only required if the conditions specified in NUREG 1301, Table 3.12-1, are met (Samples are collected from milking animals in three locations within 3 miles when, and if, milking animals are identified in the annual Land Use Census. If no milking animals are found within 3 miles, then samples from milking animals in one location between 3 and 5 miles are collected if the projected dose from milk consumption exceeds 1 mrem/year via this pathway). The Land Use Census looks for and documents (when found) the presence of milk animals within 5 miles annually.

a.

The lower limit of detection (LLD) is the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will be detected with 95% probability with 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

For a particular measurement system (which may include radiochemical separation):

LLD =

4.66Sb E V -2.22. Y exp(-At) where:

LLD is the lower limit of detection as defined above (microcuries per unit volume)

Sb is the standard deviation of the background counting rate, or of the counting rate of a blank sample, as appropriate (counts per minute)

E is the counting efficiency (counts per transformation)

V is the sample size (volume) 2.22 is the number of transformations per minute per picocurie Y is the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable)

X is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide At is the elapsed time between sample collection (or midpoint of sample collection) and time of counting.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an a posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.

Analyses shall be performed in such a manner that the stated LLDs will be achieved under routine conditions. Occasionally background fluctuations, unavoidably small sample sizes, the presence of interfering nuclides, or other uncontrollable circumstances may render these LLDs unachievable. In such cases, the contributing factors will be identified and described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

INTRODUCTION Technical Specification 6.6.3, Radiological Effluent Monitoring and Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (REMODCM), requires that Section II contain the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. This manual shall describe the methodology and parameters to be used in the following:

1. Calculation of offsite doses due to radioactive gaseous and liquid effluents.
2.

Calculation of gaseous and liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation alarm/trip setpoints consistent with the applicable limiting conditions of operation contained in Part I of the REMODCM.

This manual contains the methods to be used in performance of the Control surveillance requirements in Part I of the REMODCM but does not include the procedures and forms needed to document compliance with the surveillance requirements.

In some sections, several methods may exist to perform the required Control. Generally, the methods are listed in order of simplicity and conservatism (i.e. Method 1 being the most simple and most conservative).

If a limit is approached, then more detailed calculations need to be performed. A more detailed calculation may be used at any time in lieu of a more simple method.

ODCM A-1

JUN 11 2002 Revision 15 B.

RESPONSIBILITIES All changes to this manual shall be independently reviewed and approved by the Unit Manager prior to implementation.

It is the responsibility of the Unit Manager to ensure compliance with all the requirements of this manual.

ODCM B-1

J Pe'iAIori 15 /UUt C.

LIQUID DOSE CALCULATIONS Liquid dose calculations are performed once every 31 days to comply with Controls C.3.2 and G.3 of Part I of this manual. The basis for the Method 1 used to calculate liquid dose is explained in Appendix B. The methods described below use source terms totaled by similar dilution flows. For example; if, during a period, there were releases at flows of 3,000 gpm and 189,000 gpm, then dose calculations must be performed for each different dilution flow and then summed to calculate the total doses. Initial circulation water (CW) dilution flow must be maintained for batch discharges until 125 million gallons of river water is discharged following termination of the release.

(Note: Method 2 can be used at any time in lieu of Method 1.)

C.1 Method 1

a. Monthly Method 1 is used primarily for calculating monthly liquid doses; however, it can also be used for any release period if both the radionuclide activities and dilution flow are for that same period.

Step 1 Determine the total activity (CI) of each nuclide released with the same dilution flow (ft3/sec).

Step 2 Determine the maximum total body and maximum organ doses by using the following calculation logic:

(a) For each nuclide from Step 1 that is in Appendix A, calculate its age-organ dose contribution (e.g. Adult Thyroid) by dividing its activity (Ci) by the dilution flow (ft 3/sec) and then multiplying that result by each of the age-organ dose conversion factors (DCFs) from Appendix A (3 ages x 7 organs

= 21 DCFs per nuclide).

(b) Sum all individual nuclide age-organ dose contributions by age-organ (e.g.

Adult Thyroid) for all the nuclides in Step 1.

(c) Select the maximum summed total body dose for Adult, Teen and Child as the whole body dose. Likewise, select the maximum summed organ dose for Adult, Teen and Child as the maximum organ dose.

Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for each different dilution flow, as required.

Step 3 Sum the whole body doses for each different dilution flow to derive the total whole body dose. Likewise, sum the maximum organ doses for each different dilution flow to derive the total maximum organ dose.

ODCM C-1

Revision 15 JUN11 2002

b. Quarterly and Annually Quarterly total body and maximum organ liquid doses are calculated by summing the appropriate monthly total body and maximum organ doses, respectively.

Likewise, annual total body and maximum organ liquid doses are calculated by summing the appropriate quarterly total body and maximum organ doses, respectively.

Control C.3.2 of Part I of this manual specifies the following limitations and actions for liquid effluent doses:

The dose or dose commitment to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released from site shall be limited:

During any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the total body and to less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ, and During any calendar year to less than or equal to 3 mrem to the total body and to less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ.

With the calculated dose from the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents exceeding any of the above limits, prepare and submit to the Commission within 30 days, pursuant to Subsection F.3 of the REMM, a Special Report which identifies the cause(s) for exceeding the limit(s) and defines the corrective actions to be taken to reduce the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents during the remainder of the current calendar quarter and during the remainder of the current calendar year so that the cumulative dose or dose commitment to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from such release during the calendar year is within 3 mrem to the total body and 10 mrem to any organ.

If the quarterly or annual liquid doses exceed, or are expected to exceed, the limits cited above, then Method 2 is to be used to refine liquid doses.

C.2 Method 2 This method uses the methodology of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Rev 1) to calculate liquid effluent doses.

The use of this model and its associated input parameters are discussed in Appendix C.

By design, Method 2 is to be used to calculate quarterly and annual liquid effluent doses for the Annual Radioactive Effluent Report; however, Method 2 should be used whenever Method 1 is determined to be inadequate or inappropriate. Method 2 can be used at any time in lieu of Method 1.

C.3 QuarterIV Dose Calculations for Annual Radioactive Effluent Report Detailed quarterly dose calculations required for the Annual Radioactive Effluent Report shall be done using the NRC computer code LADTAP II, i.e. Method 2, or an equivalent code implementing the guidance in Regulatory Guide 1.109, Rev. 1. The use of this model and its associated input parameters are discussed in Appendix C.

ODCM C-2

Revision 15 JUN 1 1 2002 D.

GASEOUS DOSE CALCULATIONS The determination of doses from radioactive gaseous effluents to the maximum off-site receptor are typically divided into two methods representing different levels of conservatism. All hand calculation approaches discussed below (i.e., Method 1) provide simplified, conservative operational tools to ensure that effluent releases are not likely to cause quarterly and annual off-site dose or dose rate limits to be exceeded.

Site specific dose factors used in Method 1 are based on long-term historical on-site meteorological dispersion estimates as described in Appendix H, options and parameters that may be used are summarized in Appendix E. In cases where additional analyses can justify a more accurate determination of dose, a Method 2 approach is also listed. Method 2 provides for a more detailed calculation using accepted computer models along with historical atmospheric dispersion parameters, to demonstrate regulatory compliance. Method 2 can be used whenever the Method 1 estimation approaches a regulatory limit, or if a more refined dose estimate is desired. Method 2 is also used for preparation of the Annual Radioactive Effluent Report that includes the quarterly and annual dose impacts for all effluents recorded discharged to the atmosphere during the year of record.

D.1.

Site Dose Rate Limits ("Instantaneous")

The Technical Specifications requires that the instantaneous off-site dose rate from noble gas (Kr-85 is the only remaining isotope) released to the atmosphere be limited not exceed 500 mrem/year at any time to the whole body or 3000 mrem/year to the skin from the external cloud.

With the abandonment of the Waste Gas Decay System and isolation of the Spent Fuel Building ventilation from the plant stack, noble gas release potential is associated only with ground level sources.

For tritium and particulates (half-lives > 8 days), the inhalation pathway critical organ dose rate shall not exceed 1500 mrem/year at any time.

a. Total Body Dose Rate Due to Kr-85 The total body dose rate limit (500 mrem/yr) applies to the combination of all concurrent ground level sources on site.

For ground-level releases (i.e., all releases points other than the plant stack), the total body dose rate is:

c. Site Release Rate Limits For Noble Gas ("Instantaneous")

The site noble gas dose rate limits (500 mrem/yr total body and 3000 mrem/yr skin) apply to the combination of concurrent effluents from all releases points, and are directly related to the radioactivity release rates measured for each discharge point.

By limiting gaseous release rates to within values which correlate to the above dose rate limits, assurance is provided that the site effluent control dose rate limits are not exceeded. Since the only remaining noble gas isotope is Kr-85, the above dose rate equations and site dose rate limits show that the skin dose is the limiting exposure pathway.

The instantaneous noble gas release rate limit from the site shall be:

JUN 1 1 2002 Revision 15 As long as the above is less than or equal to 1, the dose rate from Kr-85 will be less than or equal to 3000 mrem/yr to the skin (and 500 mrem/yr to the total body).

d. Critical Organ Dose Rate from Particulates and Tritium The critical organ rate limit (1500 mrem/yr) applies to the combination of the plant stack releases and all concurrent ground level sources. It includes particulates with half lives greater than 8 days, and tritium (lodine-131 and 133 have been removed from the potential source term due to decay). Results of gross alpha analyses shall be considered as Am-241 for dose calculations.

Dose rates from all concurrent ground sources and the plant stack are determined independently, and then summed to obtain the overall critical organ dose rate.

For the identified radionuclide mix, dose rates by critical organ and age group should be assessed to determine the limiting organ dose rate at the maximum exposure point offsite.

D.2 10CFR5O Appendix I Limits (Noble Gases)

Effluent controls limit the off-site air dose from noble gases released in gaseous effluents to 5 mrad gamma, and 10 mrad beta for a calendar quarter (10 and 20 mrad gamma and beta, respectively, per calendar year).

Effluent dose calculations are calculated at least once every 31 days. This part of the ODCM provides the calculation methodology for determining air doses from noble gases.

10CFR5O Appendix I Limits (Particulates and Tritium)

Effluent control requirements limit the off-site dose to a critical organ from tritium and particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days released in gaseous effluents to 7.5 mrem for a calendar quarter and 15 mrem per calendar year. These dose limits apply to the combination of plant stack and all concurrent ground level sources. (Iodine-131 and 133 have been removed from the potential sources term due to radioactive decay.) Effluent dose calculations are performed at least once every 31 days. This part of the ODCM provides the calculation methodology for determining critical organ doses from atmospheric releases of tritium and particulates. Results of gross alpha analyses shall be considered as Am-241 for dose calculations.

a. Critical Organ Doses (1) Method la For an elevated (mixed mode) release from the plant stack, the critical organ dose during a release period of interest (such as 31 days, quarterly, etc.) at the postulated maximum off-site receptor location can be calculated from:

For ground-level releases (i.e., all release points other than the plant stack) the critical organ dose during a release period of interest (such as 31 days, quarterly, etc) at the postulated maximum off-site receptor location is calculated:

Dco(g) = (Q(g,)

DFGico(g)

= The site-specific critical organ dose factor for radionuclide "i" and ground-level release points, based on the age group and organ with the largest dose factor (see Appendix D, Table D-6).

Note: For ground-level releases from other than a Temporary Tent Exhaust, the ground-level DFG values may be decreased, if desired, by multiplying them by a correction factor applicable to the specific ground-level release point being evaluated. The correction factors are listed in Appendix D, Table D.4.

JUN 1 1 2002 Revision 15 (2) Method 1 b (For ground level releases only)

With the elimination of the waste gas system operation as a batch mode release source, an additional dose equation has been provided for the situations where routine discharges are impacted with an identifiable short duration release of particulate radioactivity, such as the breakthrough of activity on a temporary HEPA filter used during dismantlement activities. The time-adjusted X/Q value provides additional conservatism to the dose calculation by substituting a short-term X/Q estimate for the standard annual average value (ground-level releases only).

The correction factors are listed in Appendix D, Table D.4.

(3) Method 2 The maximum critical organ dose can be calculated utilizing the GASPAR code (or equivalent code model that implements Regulatory Guide 1.109, Rev. 1 dose equations and maximum individual assumptions) to estimate the dose from tritium and particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days.

The dose to the critical organ and age group should be assessed using the most recent land use census data to identify which exposure pathways need to be considered at actual receptor locations. Doses from vegetation consumption can be neglected during D-8 ODCM

JUN 11 2002 Revision 15 the 1st and 4th quarters and the doses from milk consumption can be neglected during the first quarter since winter conditions eliminate the out door growing of vegetation during these time frames.

b. Estimation of Annual Critical Organ Dose The determination of the annual (calendar year) critical organ dose, Dyo, from tritium and particulates released in gaseous effluents is the sum over the first quarter to the present quarter doses to the maximum organ.
c. Annual Organ Dose Limit Determine Dyo which is the maximum organ dose for the calendar year, as follows:

Dyo = Y;D 0mo where the sum is over the first quarter through the present quarter doses to the maximum organ.

D.4 Quarterly Dose Calculations for Annual Radioactive Effluent Report Detailed quarterly dose calculations required for the Annual Radioactive Effluent Report shall be done using the computer code GASPAR (or equivalent code implementing Regulatory Guide 1.109, Rev. 1).

D.5 Compliance with 40CFR190 Limits The following sources should be considered in determining the total dose to a real individual from uranium fuel cycle sources:

a. CY gaseous effluents (doses calculated in Section D above).
b. CY liquid effluents (doses calculated in Section C above).
c. CY direct radiation from the site. Based on ERC-16103-ER-99-012, direct dose will not be routinely included in the dose assessment. An evaluation of the direct dose aspect will be discussed in the Annual Environmental Operating Report.

This evaluation will include the dose recorded on control TLDs and TLDs located near residents.

d. Since all other uranium fuel cycle sources are greater than 20 miles away, they need not be considered.

LIQUID EFFLUENT INSTRUMENTATION SETPOINTS Control C.3.3 of Part I of this manual requires that the radioactive liquid effluent instrumentation in Table C.3.3 have alarm setpoints in order to ensure that the limits of Control C.3.1 are not exceeded.

Control C.3.1 of Part I of this manual requires that the concentration of radioactive material released from the site shall not exceed the concentrations specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2. Connecticut Yankee uses MPC values obtained from 10 CFR Part 20 revision prior to Jan 1, 1994.

E.1 Recvcle Test Tank Discharge Line Monitor (R-22)

The Recycle Test Tank effluent monitor provides alarm and automatic termination of release prior to exceeding the concentration limits. Normally the setpoint for R-22 is at twice the gamma activity in the tank to be released. This verifies that the sample results used in release calculations were from a homogenous mixture.

The alarrn/trip setpoint is determined prior to each batch release taking into account current values for each variable parameter. The following steps are used in determining the monitor setpoint:

Step 1 Determine the maximum allowable discharge flow (Fmax) in gpm, at which the test tank can be released.

Fmax=

Fd C1

'MPCi where:

Ed

=

The actual or conservative estimate of the flow out of the discharge canal (gpm). The flow for 1 Circulating Water pump is 93,000 gpm and the flow for the Service Water system is set at 3,000 gpm.

Ci

=

Activity concentration of each radionuclide "i" (uCi/ml) determined to be in the test tank. This includes gross alpha, Tritium, Fe-55 and Sr-90 either measured or estimated from the most recent composite sample analysis.

MPCj = The concentration limit (uCi/ml) above background at the point of discharge to the environment for radionuclides "i", taken from 10 CFR Part 20 Appendix B, Table II, Column 2.

For Gross Alpha use the MPC for Am-241.

Step 2 The selection of the actual discharge flow rate (Fm) from the test tanks compared to the maximum allowable discharge rate Fmax must satisfy the following:

Fm

JUN 1 1 2002 Revision 15 where:

AF

=

Administrative limiting factor for the maximum allowable discharge rate (usually between 0.1 and 0.7).

This factor is conservative and will account for ongoing releases from other sources and the presence of beta emitters that cannot be detected by the radiation monitor.

If Fmax x AF > Fm, then reduce discharge flow rate, increase dilution flow or reprocess tank to lower activity levels.

Step 3 Determine the monitor response (Rm) in cpm corresponding to two times the total concentration of gamma emitters.

Rm = 2 x E x Agam where:

E

=

Current monitor efficiency (cpm per iLCi/ml)

Agam

= Total concentration of gamma emitters in the tank (I.Ci/ml). If isotopic analysis of tank does not identify gamma emitters use 5E-07 ptCi/ml (LLD requirement) for Agam.

Step 4 Determine the limiting monitor response (Rlim) in cpm. The limiting monitor response is the calculated alarm setpoint at which an administrative MPC concentration limit would be exceeded.

Rlim

=

E x Ampc x (Fd/Fm) where:

Ampc

=

Administrative MPC associated with assumed worse case mix of nuclides in accordance with 10 CFR 20 Appendix B, Footnotes.

Step 5 Determine test tank discharge monitor alarm setpoint (S) in cpm, where B = Background count rate of monitor (cpm).

If Rm + B > Rium, If 2 x B > Rtim, If Rim > Rm + B Then reduce discharge flow rate, increase dilution flow or reprocess tank to lower activity levels.

Then decontaminate monitor Then If Rm > B, Then S = Rm + B Else S = 2 x B At no time can the monitor setpoint (S) be greater than Rlim.

GASEOUS MONITOR SETPOINTS F.1 Spent Fuel Building Noble Gas Activity Monitor (R-1)

As discussed in D.1.c, Site Release Limits for Noble Gas ("Instantaneous"), the skin dose rate of 3000 mrem/year is the limiting value. With the fuel stored in the Spent Fuel Building with an independent ventilation system, the only source of noble gas release is the Spent Fuel Building which is continuously monitored by the R-1 noble gas activity monitor. The SFB noble gas monitor will be set to alarm before the release rate exceeds 1 % of this limit.

  • 0.01* 60
  • 5E7 R-1 Setpoint =

  • 1.2
  • 2.83E4 Where:

7143 = the Kr-85 release rate (,uCi/sec) from the ground-level sources equivalent to a skin dose rate of 3000 mrem/year (see Section D.1.c).

0.01 = 1% factor applied to the dose rate limit.

60 = seconds per minute conversion factor.

5E7 = conservative radiation monitor efficiency for Kr-85 (cpm/p.Ci/cc).

9000 cfm = nominal Spent Fuel Building ventilation flow rate.

1.2 = a conservative factor applied to the ventilation flow rate.

2.83E4 = cubic centimeters per cubic foot conversion factor.

The basis substantiates the use of:

(1) dilution flow, (2) radionuclide activities and (3)

"composite" radionuclide age-organ dose conversion factors (DCFs) (derived from the NRC LADTAP II software program which conforms to Regulatory Guide 1.109) to calculate age-organ doses. These "composite" DCFs include the contributions from all pathways (including pathway age usage's and radionuclide age-organ DCFs) and LADTAP II site-specific parameters, and are acceptable because LADTAP II is used for Method 2.

The LADTAP codes were written by the NRC to compute doses from liquid releases. The actual model used in LADTAP II which performs calculations in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1.

For calculating the maximum individual dose from Haddam Neck, the following options and parameters are used:

1. Real time, measured dilution flow
2. Fresh water site, no re-concentration
3. Shorewidth factor = 0.1 for discharge canal
4. No dilution for maximum individual pathways
5. One-hour discharge transit time - approximate time to reach 1/2 canal length
6. Regulatory Guide 1.109 usage factors for maximum individual for fish, shoreline, swimming and boating
7. Zero usage for shellfish, algae, drinking water and irrigated food pathways. Shellfish, algae and water are not consumed from the river. Bottled water is provided onsite. The river is not used for irrigation.

jAViof AO2 APPENDIX D GASEOUS DOSE CONVERSION FACTORS (TRITIUM AND PARTICULATE)

This appendix contains a listing of the dose and dose rate conversion factors (DFG and DFG')

for use in the application of the CY ODCM during the decommissioning phase of the plant. The DFGs are for gaseous releases to the atmosphere of tritium and particulate radionuclides, and reflect the following conditions:

(a)

On-ground receptors at the closest distance to the site boundary (SB) for ground-level releases, and at the worst-case offsite receptor for elevated

releases, (b)

Long-lived radionuclides (in view of the extended decay time since permanent plant shutdown on July 22, 1996),

(c)

The inhalation pathway for dose-rate calculations, and all pathways combined for dose calculations (ground-shine, inhalation, meat ingestion, goat milk ingestion, and vegetable ingestion), and (d)

The 'associated worst-case hypothetical individual (adult, teenager, child or infant) and critical organ (Total Body, GI Tract, Bone, Liver, Kidney, Thyroid, Lung, or Skin).

The DFGs were computed using the GASPAR-2 computer code (1), along with site-specific atmospheric dispersion and deposition factors.

Details on the basic data and assumptions employed in the derivations of these conversion factors are presented in Section D.1 and the final tabulations are presented in Section D.2.

D.1 Basic Data and Assumptions (a)

A total of 32 long-lived radionuclides were selected for computation of the DFGs. The list includes tritium, 1129, and 30 other particulate radionuclides.

(b)

Use was made of the GASPAR-2 default built-in data libraries for physical parameters, transfer data and usage factors, with the following exceptions (which were implemented for consistency with Reg. Guide 1.109(1)):

1.

The accumulation time for ground contamination (tb) was changed from 20 years to 15 years

2.

The transfer rate to meat products (Ff) for Ni was changed from 5.3E-03 (d/kg) to 5.3E-02 (d/kg)

3.

The transfer rate to goat-milk (Fm) for Fe was changed from 1.3E-03 (D/L) to 1.3E-04 (D/L)

(c)

The pathway parameters were assigned the values shown in Table D.1 [from GASPAR-2, with the exceptions identified under item (b) above].

Summaries of the results are presented in Table D.5 for the inhalation pathway (dose rate calculations), and Table D.6 for all pathways combined (dose calculations).

It is noted that the DFGs for ground-level releases were based on the worst-case atmospheric dispersion and deposition factors, and as such are conservatively applicable to all ground-level releases from the site. Should some reduction be required to ensure that specified dose limits are not exceeded, then the ground-level DFGs in Tables D.5 and D.6 can be multiplied by the conservative adjustment factors in Table D.4.

JUN11 2002 Revision 15 APPENDIX E GASEOUS DOSE CALCULATIONS - GASPAR-2 (OR EQUIVALENT)

The GASPAR-2 code was written by the NRC to compute doses from gaseous releases using the models given in Regulatory Guide 1.109. The revision date of the code is December 1986.

Other codes which implement the guidance provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1, are also acceptable, including Method 1.

For calculating the maximum individual dose from Haddam Neck, the following options and parameters may be used (Method 1):

1.

Historical meteorology using a X/Q, D/Q model which incorporates the methodology of Regulatory Guide 1.111.

The five year period of 1976 -

1980 was used to determine dispersion estimates.

2.

100% of -vegetation grown locally, 76% of vegetation intake from garden, harvest season from April through September.

3.

Animals on pasture April through December - 100% pasture intake.

4.

Air water concentration equals 8 g/m3.

5.

Maximum individual dose calculations for Method 1 were performed at the nearest land site boundary with maximum X/Q. For conservatism in the Method 1 model, this location is assumed to have a resident, vegetable garden, and milk and meat animal with the maximum D/Q value.

ODCM APP E-1

J Lail 2002 seviion 15 APPENDIX F METEOROLOGICAL DISPERSION FACTORS The ODCM atmospheric dispersion factors were derived using the AEOLUS-3 computer code.

AEOLUS-3 was written to implement regulatory guidance for continuous (Regulatory Guide 1.111) and intermittent releases (NRC computer code XOQDOQ).

The code has various options including building wake effects, plume depletion via dry deposition, and an effective plume height that accounts for physical release height, plume downwash, plume rise, and terrain features.

A set of atmospheric dispersion factors which are a function of release duration were generated. NUREG/CR-2919 (the documentation package for the NRC atmospheric dispersion computer code XOQDOQ, Reference 1) presents a methodology for determining atmospheric dispersion factors (CHI/Q values) for intermittent releases at user specified receptor locations (intermittent releases being defined as releases with durations between 1 and 8760 hours0.101 days <br />2.433 hours <br />0.0145 weeks <br />0.00333 months <br />).

The CHI/Q values for intermittent releases are determined by linearly interpolating (on a log-log basis) between an hourly 15-percentile CHI/Q value and an annual average CHI/Q value as a function of release duration. These time-dependent factors were derived using one-hour 15 percentile and long-term average atmospheric dispersion factors.

The following assumptions were used in executing AEOLUS-3 to determine one-hour 15 percentile and long-term average atmospheric dispersion factors for each of the two release pathway categories (ground-level and Primary Vent Stack):

Plume centerline CHI/Q and D/Q values were used to generate the one-hour 15 percentile dispersion factors (an AEOLUS-3 default assumption); sector average CHI/Q and D/0 values were used to generate the long-term average dispersion factors.

AEOLUS-3 default open terrain recirculation correction factors (Regulatory Guide 1.1 11) were used to generate the long-term average dispersion factors in order to consider the effects of recirculation of effluent.

The ground level release pathways (e.g., Spent Fuel Building ventilation exhaust vent, Spent Fuel Building component spray cooler, Personnel Access Hatch on the Containment Building, potential Chemistry Fume Hood exhaust out of 'B' Switchgear Building, and for a limiting condition associated with temporary tent exhaust for work on contaminated components) were treated as Reg Guide 1.111 (Rev 1) ground-mode releases with releases emitted below the height of adjacent buildings.

The Primary Vent Stack was treated as a Reg Guide 1.111 mix-mode release since the vent is above (but less that 2 times above) the height of adjacent buildings. A stack conservative exit flow rate of 117,000 cfm was assumed.

Lower level wind speed data were provided to the code for both types of release pathways.

These data were used without adjustment to disperse the plume for the ground level release pathways. For the mix-mode Primary Vent Stack release pathway, the lower level wind speed data were extrapolated up to the Primary Vent Stack release height for evaluating plume entrainment effects and for determining plume rise and ODCM APP F-1

JUN 11 2002 Revision 15 dispersion for the elevated-mode portion of the plume. The lower level wind speed data were used to disperse the ground-mode portion of the Primary Vent Stack plumes.

Lower level wind direction data were provided to the code to determine plume transport for both types of release pathways.

The 196'-33' delta-temperature data were provided to the code to determine atmospheric stability for both types of release pathways.

The Reg Guide 1.111 (Rev. 1) depletion/deposition model was used for determining depleted CHI/Q and D/Q values for both types of release pathways.

Wet depletion/deposition and decay-in-transit were not considered.

Meteorological data measured by the onsite monitoring system from January 1976 through December 1980 were used as input to the AEOLUS-3 computer code.

Analysis of meteorological data measured at the Haddam Neck Plant during the following five-year periods, 1976-1980, 1988-1992, 1993-1997, indicated that the lower level wind speed data have been influenced by foliage growth over the years and that the older data set (1976-1980) is most appropriate for use in analyses.

Atmospheric dispersion factors were calculated for three time periods:

Annual Growing season (defined as April through December)

Non-growing season (January through March)

The most conservative values from the three time periods were used to develop the dose factors.

The one-hour 15-percentile undepleted CHI/Q, depleted CHI/Q, and D/Q dispersion factors used in the time dependent equations were derived by averaging the highest one-hour 15-percentile dispersion factors which occurred in each downwind sector, weighted by the fraction of the time the wind blew towards each downwind sector. The long-term average undepleted CHI/Q, depleted CHI/Q, and D/Q dispersion factors used in the time dependent equations were the highest long-term average dispersion factors calculated for receptors at and beyond the Site Boundary.

The time-dependent equation is:

X /Q = X /Qhir t I(X/Qf where X/Qhr is the weighted one-hour 15-percentile value and X/QOt is the long-term average value. For the derivation of the time-dependent equation, see Reference 1.

JUN 11 2002 Revision 15 APPENDIX H DOSE FACTORS FOR Kr-85 Hi Approach The REMM requires the calculation of gamma and beta air doses, and total body and skin dose rates resulting from the release of noble gases (i.e., Kr-85) to the atmosphere.

The gamma air and beta air doses, as well as the total body dose rates, will be determined using the dose factors taken from Table B-1 of Reg. Guide 1.109 for individual radionuclides.

The skin dose factor, DF', is calculated for individual radionuclides (i.e., Kr-85 here) by combining the gamma air dose and beta skin dose factors to give a combined skin dose factor.

The following subsections detail the development of these dose factors and the equation for calculating site specific doses with them.

Meteorological dispersion factors are calculated for the CY site as described in Appendix F, and are summarized in Tables F.1 and F.2. These represent a long-term (5 years) site average meteorological history that was used to determine the location of minimum dispersion (maximum dose) for off-site receptors.

The Kr-85 dose factors to be used in the ODCM Method 1 calculations are listed in Table H-1.

H.2 Total Body Dose Rate Method 1 was derived from general equation B-8 in Regulatory Guide 1.109 as follows:

Db = (IE + 06) *LQ

(mrem

( pCi

  • sec r juCi
  • mrem - m3 yr Loci m3 sec pCi-yr )

where:

Q F.2),

0 Release rate to the environment of Kr-85 (,uCi/sec);

DFB

Total body dose factor (see Table H.i and Reg. Guide 1.109, Table B-1).

  • DFB (nrem A

(H-2)

Note: Since the permanent shutdown of the station, the Spent Fuel Building ventilation has been isolated from the plant stack. In addition, the waste gas decay system, which was used for gas holdup before release to the stack during plant operations, has been abandoned. The result is that the potential for noble gas release via the plant stack has been removed.

and for ground level releases:

JUN 11 2002 Revision 15 As noted above, noble gas (Kr-85) releases from the plant stack have been eliminated due to changes in plant configuration since permanent shutdown. However, the same methodology for the development of a combined skin dose rate equation can be applied to ground level releases.

Substituting the ground level X/Q value (3.09E-04 sec/M 3), we have, for a ground level release point:

or, Dskin(g) =6(343DFy +309DFS ).

(H-18)

For an ground-level release we substitute the "combined skin dose rate factor" for the expression in parentheses above, as follows:

"Combined Skin Dose Rate Factor" = DF' = 343DFY +309DFS, (H-19) where DF = (343)* (1.72E -5) + (309) (1.34E -3) = 0.42 iIuCi -yr) then:
