Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-13-042 C. Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity
- 1. Gaseous Effluents
- a. Fission and Activation Gases A pair of off-line monitors equipped with beta scintillator detectors monitors the gaseous radioactivity released from the plant vent. The monitor readings are correlated to isotopic concentration based on laboratory isotopic analysis of grab samples using a germanium detector.
For plant vent noble gas releases, grab sample results are used to quantify releases. The individual batch release data are used to quantify the radioactivity discharged from the gas decay tanks and containment.
A noble gas grab sample is obtained and analyzed at least weekly. The isotopic mixture is assumed to remain constant between grab sample analyses.
Containment purges, gas decay tank releases, and air ejector discharges are released via the plant vent.
The gaseous radioactivity released from the steam generator blowdown tank vent is measured by analyzing liquid or steam condensate grab samples with a germanium detector.
A factor R, a ratio of unit masses between water flashing to steam and water entering the tank, is used to calculate the activity. The isotopic concentrations are assumed to remain constant between grab samples.
Other potential pathways for releasing gaseous radioactivity are periodically monitored by collecting grab samples and analyzing these samples with a germanium detector system.
- b. lodines Radioiodines released from the plant vent are monitored by continuous sample collection on silver zeolite cartridges.
The cartridges are changed at least weekly and analyzed with a germanium detector. The radioiodine releases are averaged over the period of cartridge sample collection.
Other potential pathways for releasing radioiodines are periodically monitored by collecting samples using charcoal 4
Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 or silver zeolite cartridges and analyzing with a germanium detector.
Radioactive materials in particulate form released from the plant vent are monitored by continuous sample collection on particulate filters. The filters are changed at least weekly and analyzed with a germanium detector. The particulate radioactivity is averaged over the period of particulate filter sample collection. Each filter is analyzed for alpha emitters using an internal proportional counter. Plant vent particulate filters collected during a quarter are used for the composite analysis for strontium-89 and -90, which is counted on an internal proportional counter after chemical separation.
Other potential pathways for releasing radioactive particulate are periodically monitored by collecting samples using particulate filters and analyzing these filters with a germanium detector.
- c. Tritium Tritium released from the plant vent is monitored by passing a measured volume of plant vent sample through a water column and determining the tritium increase in the water. An aliquot of the water is counted in a liquid scintillation spectrometer. The minimum routine sample frequency for tritium is weekly. The tritium concentration is assumed to remain constant between samples.
- d. Estimations of Overall Error Sources of error considered for batch release are:
- 1) calibration source; 2) calibration counting; 3) sampling;
- 4) sample counting; and 5) gas decay tank pressure gauge/containment exhaust fan flow rate.
Sources of error for continuous release are: 1) calibration source; 2) calibration counting; 3) sampling; 4) sample counting; 5) process monitor (RE-14) reading (fission gases only); and 6) plant vent exhaust fan flow rate.

Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-13-042
- 2. Liquid Effluents
- a. Batch Releases Each tank of liquid radwaste is analyzed for principal gamma emitters using a germanium detector prior to release. A monthly prerelease analysis includes dissolved and entrained gases. Volume proportional monthly and quarterly composites are prepared from aliquots of each tank volume discharged. The monthly composite is analyzed for tritium using a liquid scintillation spectrometer and gross alpha radioactivity using an internal proportional counter. The quarterly composite is analyzed for iron-55 using a liquid scintillation spectrometer and for strontium-89 and -90 using an internal proportional detector following chemical separations. The monthly composite for discharges from the auxiliary building are also analyzed for nickel-63, uranium-2331234123512361238 and plutonium-238123912401241/242.
- b. Continuous Releases For the continuous liquid releases of the steam generator blowdown tank and turbine building sump oily water separator, daily grab samples are collected and aliquots are proportioned for weekly, monthly, and quarterly composites.
The oily water separator weekly composite is analyzed for principal gamma emitters using a germanium detector. The steam generator blowdown tank weekly composite is analyzed for principal gamma emitters and iodine-1 31.
The steam generator blowdown tank monthly composite is analyzed for tritium using a liquid scintillation spectrometer and for gross alpha using an internal proportional counter.
The steam generator blowdown tank quarterly composite is analyzed for iron-55 using a liquid scintillation spectrometer and for strontium-89 and strontium-90 using an internal proportional counter following chemical separation. The results for each of the composites are averaged over the period of the composite.
In addition, one grab sample of the steam generator blowdown tank is analyzed monthly for dissolved and entrained gases using a germanium detector. The results of 6
Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 this analysis are assumed to remain constant over the period of one month.
A grab sample of the steam generator blowdown is collected at least weekly and analyzed for gamma activity using a germanium detector. This analysis is used to monitor activity, however, is not used in effluent calculations unless a significant change is detected.
Note on dilution volume:
Tables 4A, 4B and 4C, "Liquid Effluents - Summation of All Releases," Item F., lists the, "Volume of circulating saltwater used during release periods," in liters. This value is calculated by multiplying the discharge duration by the circulating water flow rate. The values listed in the Tables are the summation of the circulating water discharge volume calculated for each individual batch and continuous discharge period. Therefore, in the case where two or more simultaneous discharges into the same circulating water are occurring, the calculated volume of circulating water is duplicated, and therefore the sum of the dilution volumes for the batch releases and continuous releases are greater than the actual dilution volume since each discharge incorporates the circulating discharge flow rate in its own dose calculation.
- c. Estimation of Overall Error Sources of error considered are: 1) calibration source error;
- 2) calibration counting error; 3) sampling error; 4) sample counting error; and 5) volume of waste release error.
These sources of error are independent; therefore the total error is calculated according to the following formula:
2 0y23 + - 0y2i) 1/2 Total error = (a 1 + a 22 +
Where al = error associated with each component.

Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 II. Changes to Radwaste Management A. Major Changes to Liquid, Gaseous and Solid Radwaste Treatment System An enhancement was made to the liquid radwaste treatment system in 2012.
Modifications were made to provide mobile radwaste system connections downstream of in-plant vessels. This will enable the use of a leased reverse osmosis unit (RO), in place of the vendor-supplied advance filtration unit that is connected to the mobile radwaste system connections at the front of in-plant treatment systems.
CY2.1D1, "Radioactive Effluent Controls Program," requires the following discussion points be included in this report:
- 1. A summary of the evaluation that led to the determination that the change could be made per 10 CFR 50.59.
See attached 10 CFR 50.59/72.48 Screen, accepted on 10/09/2012 (Attachment 8)
- 2. Sufficient detailed information to totally support the reason for the change without benefit of additional or supplemental information:
The RO is intended to remove small particulate activity that the installed plant carbon bed, cartridge filters and advanced filtration skid cannot efficiently remove. While use of the leased advanced filtration skid since 2007 was successful in reducing liquid effluent activity concentrations, the RO is intended to reduce concentrations even further.
- 3. A detailed description of the equipment, components and processes involved and the interfaces with other plant systems:
A RO will be mounted (anchored to the floor) in the Auxiliary Building at elevation 85 ft., in the same room with the abandoned Waste Concentrator.
A 480 volt electrical power supply has been installed in the same room to supply power to the skid.
Piping and connections have been added to allow the RO to communicate with the liquid radwaste system. Normally, the RO will process liquid radwaste discharged from ion exchanger 0-2.
- 4. An evaluation of the change which shows the predicted releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluent or quantity of solid waste that differ from those previously predicted in the license application and amendments thereto:
The use of the RO is intended to remove small particulate activity that the installed plant filters, and the advanced filtration unit are unable to efficiently remove. The RO provides additional treatment of liquid radwaste to that originally described in the license application and amendments thereto. While use of the advanced filtration skid since 9
Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 2007 was successful in reducing liquid effluent activity concentrations, the RO is intended to reduce concentrations even further. No increase in solid radwaste is anticipated.
- 5. An evaluation of the change which shows the expected maximum exposure to a member of the public in the unrestricted area and to the general population that differ from those previously estimated in the license application and amendments thereto:
The use of the RO will not increase exposure to the public versus previous estimates. Any decrease in exposure will be small.
- 6. A comparison of the predicted releases of radioactive material, in liquid effluents and solid waste, to the actual releases for the period prior to when the changes are to be made.
As anticipated in the 2007 Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report, the advanced filtration unit has facilitated the reduction of annual activity from approximately 60 millicuries to less than 40 millicuries (not including tritium, noble gas, gross alpha and carbon-14). The RO is expected to facilitate further reductions in liquid effluent activity. No increase in solid radwaste is anticipated.
- 7. An estimate of the exposure to plant operating personnel as a result of the change.
As described in Attachment 8, The RO will be located in the abandoned Waste Concentrator room. UFSAR section 12.1.2.5 describes the Auxiliary Building shielding design and figure 12.1-5 shows estimated concentrations in the now abandoned Waste Concentrator, which is the basis for the original Waste Concentrator room shielding. Per UFSAR Table 12.1-5, the estimated concentration of Co-60 in the Waste Concentrator was 1.5E-4uCi/cc, which is higher than the concentration that the RO is anticipated to contain. Therefore, the shielding in the cubicle where the RO is being installed is adequate for this application.
B. Changes to the Radwaste Process Control Program (PCP)
There were no changes to the Radwaste PCP promulgated by Plant Administration Procedures. See Attachments 5 and 6:
" RP2.DC2, "Radwaste Solidification Process Control Program,"
- RP2.DC3, "Radwaste Dewatering Process Control Program" 10

Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 VII. Radiation Dose Due to Gaseous and Liquid Effluents Radiation Doses A. Radiation Doses from Radioactive Liquid Effluents The radiation dose contributions due to releases of radioactive liquid effluents to the total body and each individual organ for the maximum exposed adult have been calculated in accordance with the methodology in the ODCP. Dose contributions listed in Table 7 show conformance to RECP Attachment 4.
B. Radiation Doses from Radioactive Gaseous Effluents
- 1. The radiation dose contributions due to radioactive gaseous effluents at the site boundary for the land sectors have been calculated in accordance with the calculation methodology in the ODCP. Each unit's dose contribution has been calculated separately. The latest five-year historical average meteorology conditions were used in these calculations. In addition to the site boundary doses, the dose to an individual (critical receptor) due to radioiodines, tritium, and particulates released in gaseous effluents with half-lives greater than eight days is determined in accordance with the methodology in the ODCP based on the methodology described in NUREG-0133. Dose contributions listed in Table 8, which represents the maximum dose for age groups, organs, and geographic locations for the report period, show conformance to RECP Attachments 6, 7 and 8.
- 2. The radiation dose contribution from locations (2), other than the plant vent, are based upon calculation only (no direct sampling), and reported separately here.
- a. Radiation Doses from Chemistry Laboratory Radioactive Gaseous Effluents - Closest Site Boundary (800m)
- i. The radiation dose due to the primary chemistry laboratory radioactive gaseous effluents for the report period is evaluated to be:
- 1. Total gamma air dose = 4.01 E-06 mrad
- 2. Total beta air dose = 1.44E-06 mrad
- b. Radiation Doses from Post Accident Sampling System Radioactive Gaseous Effluents - Closest Site Boundary (800m)
- i. The radiation doses due to post accident sampling system radioactive gaseous effluents for the report period is evaluated to be:
- 1. Total gamma air dose = 5.92E-07 mrad
- 2. Total beta air dose = 2.14E-07 mrad 36
Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042
- 3. Radiation Dose from Radioactive Gaseous Effluents to Individual Due to Consumption of Grazing animals on Property Surrounding the Site.
The Land Use Census identified that during 2012, ranchers in the area around the plant slaughtered deer and wild pig for personal consumption. As part of the DCPP Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP), samples of cow, goat and sheep meat were analyzed for radioactivity. Results of those analyses are available in the 2012 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.
Based upon the isotopes (other than C-14) discharged in gaseous form during 2012, the maximum calculated dose due to these identified meat pathways is 1.68E-06 mrem. The largest contributor to this dose is Co-60.
- 4. Atmospheric Release Of Carbon-14
- a. Historically, C-14 has not been considered a "principle radionuclide" in terms of its concentration in radioactive effluents and its dose consequence to offsite receptors. Naturally occurring C-14 is prevalent in the environment. In addition, nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount of C-14 in the atmosphere.
Therefore, power plants typically did not analyze for, nor .report information for C- 4 in annual reports.
- b. In June, 2009, the NRC revised its guidance in Regulatory Guide (RG) 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", Revision 2. This document states that analytical methods for determining C- 4 have improved. Coincidentally, the radioactive effluents from commercial power plants have decreased to the point that C-14 is likely to be a principle radionuclide in gaseous effluents. Also, because the dose contribution of C-14 from liquid radioactive waste is much less than that contributed by gaseous radioactive waste, evaluation of C-14 in liquid radioactive waste is not required.
- c. As a result, the NRC states that licensees should evaluate whether C-14 is a principal radionuclide for gaseous releases from their facility.
- d. RG 1.21 goes on to explain, in part:
- i. The quantity of C-14 discharged can be estimated by sample measurements or by use of a normalized C- 4 source term and scaling factors based on power generation, or estimated by use of the GALE code from NUREG-001 7.
ii. If sampling is performed, the sampling frequency may be adjusted to that interval that allows adequate measurement and reporting of effluents.
37
Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 iii. If estimating C-14 based on scaling factors and fission rates, a precise and detailed evaluation of C-14 is not necessary. It is not necessary to calculate uncertainties for C-14 or to include C-1 4 uncertainty in any subsequent calculation of overall uncertainty.
- e. In order to aid the nuclear power industry in estimating C-14 production, the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) developed 2010 Technical Report 1021106, "Estimation of Carbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents," December 2010. This is the guidance Diablo Canyon will use to estimate the production and release quantities of C-14.
- f. Carbon 14 calculated production, discharge parameters and resulting dose are reported here, separately from tables 1, 2, 8, 10 and 11 U1=12.0 Ci/EFPYI1 )

Closest Site Boundary
- 1. For the report period, the radiation dose from the following areas is evaluated to be 2.20E-01 mR:
- radioactive waste containers outside of plant buildings
- the storage of contaminated tools and equipment inside plant buildings
- Old Steam Generator Storage Facility, which contains:
" Four Unit 2 old steam generators since 2008.
" Four Unit 1 old steam generators since 2009.
" One Unit 2 old reactor head since 2009.
" One Unit I old reactor head since 2010.
- Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI).

D. 40 CFR 190 Considerations The release of radioactivity in liquid and gaseous effluents resulted in doses that are small percentages of the TS limits as shown in Tables 9 and 10.
In addition, the direct radiation from various sources, including the ISFSI, resulted in doses that are a small percentage of 40 CFR 190 limits.
The total dose from liquid and gaseous effluents, and direct radiation, shows conformance to 40 CFR 190.

Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-13-042 E. Radiation Doses from Radioactive Liquid and Gaseous Effluents to Members of the Public Due To Their Activities Inside The Site Boundary
- 1. Liquid Effluents The radiation dose to members of the public within the site boundary due to the release of radioactive liquid effluents is negligible because the discharge piping for liquid radwaste is mostly imbedded in concrete, located in remote or inaccessible areas, or is underground. In addition, the quantity of radioactivity released was very low.
- 2. Gaseous Effluents The radiation dose to members of the public within the site boundary due to the release of radioactive gaseous effluents is listed in Table 11.

Enclosure 2 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 G. Sub-surface water radioactive contamination Recent industry events have identified equipment leaks containing low levels of radioactivity, resulting in contaminated ground water and storm water radioactivity concentrations that may leave the plant sites. Suspected plant equipment leaks that could result in such an event at Diablo Canyon are documented in the corrective action program (CAP). Analysis of samples of sub-surface water at Diablo Canyon has indicated the presence of tritium. At this time, we have no reason to point to plant system leakage as the source for this tritium.
Sampling and analysis of the Auxiliary building roof drains, Auxiliary building drywell and the containment structure observation wells have identified detectable tritium activity. This tritium is most likely coming from the rain wash-out of gaseous tritium exiting the plant vent system. This tritium is being accounted for in the plant vent release, and rain water tritium is being accounted for per plant approved procedures.
This practice will continue until such time that new industry guidance is provided to account for this pathway in a different manner.
Refer to the 2012 REMP report for the data that has been evaluated to date for the sampling locations.
H. NEI 07-07 Voluntary Communication for sub-surface water Section 2, "Communication," Objective 2.4, "Annual Reporting," of NEI 07-07 lists the acceptance criteria for annual reporting of "ground water" information, as follows:
- 1. Acceptance Criterion 2.4.b.i:
Reporting of on-site ground water sample results that are taken in support of the GPI but are not part of the REMP program are reported in the ARERR required by 10 CFR 50.36a(a)(2).
For 2012, there were no on-site ground water results for samples taken in support of the GPI that are not part of the REMP program.
- 2. Acceptance Criterion 2.4.b.ii:

- 5. INSTRUCTIONS 5.1 Administrative Requirements 5.1.1 It is the intent of the Radioactive Effluent Control Program to monitor all significant release pathways from the power plant. A pathway is considered significant if a conservative evaluation yields an additional dose increment equal to or more than 10 percent of the total from all pathways considered in this program.
5.1.2 At times, minor release pathways occur from the power plant due to plant maintenance activities. For example, leaving Containment when the equipment hatch or door is open. These minor release pathways are usually negligible from a radioactive effluents control program release and dose perspective, and are well within the margin of error of the significant monitored pathway and dose models.

CY2.1D1 R11 Page 20 of 37 Operational Liquid Effluents - CONCENTRATION Requirements Attachment 3: Page 3 of 4 Table Notations (1) The LLD is defined, for the purposes of these specifications, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5%
probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.
For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation:
LLD = 4.66s, E
- V
- 2.22x 106
- Y
- exp (- XAO Where:
LLD = the "a priori" lower limit of detection (microcuries per unit mass or volume),
Sb = the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (counts per minute),
E = the counting efficiency (counts per disintegration),
V = the sample size (units of mass or volume),
2.22 x 106 = the number of disintegrations per minute per microcurie, Y = the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, A = the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec'), and At = the elapsed time between the midpoint of sample collection and the time of counting (sec).
Typical values of E, V, Y, and At should be used in the calculation.
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 posterior (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.
(2) 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 liquids released.
(3) To be representative of the quantities and concentrations of radioactive materials in liquid effluents, samples shall be composited in proportion to the rate of flow of the effluent stream. Prior to analyses, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite sample to be representative of the effluent release.
(4) A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for analyses, each batch shall be isolated, and then thoroughly mixed, by a method described in the ODCP, to assure representative sampling.
(5) A continuous release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a nondiscrete volume; e.g., from a volume of system that has an input flow during the continuous release.
(6) The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification applies include the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-1 34, Cs-1 37, and Ce-1 41. Ce-1 44 shall also be measured but with an LLD of 5x1 0-6. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be considered. Other gamma peaks that are identifiable, together with those of the above nuclides, shall also be analyzed and reported in the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report.
If two or more redundant sample and analysis results of the same discharge pathway indicate slight differences in low level isotopic mixture, the analysis resulting in higher calculated dose should be used. The isotopes chosen to represent the discharge shall be reported.

CY2.ID1 R11 Page 21 of 37 Liquid Effluents - CONCENTRATION Operational Requirements Attachment 3: Page 4 of 4 Bases: Liquid Effluents - Concentration This Regulatory Commitment is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be less than the concentration levels specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. This limitation provides additional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water in UNRESTRICTED AREAS will result in exposures within: (1) the Section II.A design objectives of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC, and (2) the limits of 10 CFR 20.1301(e) to the population. The concentration limit for dissolved or entrained noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radioisotope and its Effluent Concentration Limit (ECL) in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) Publication 2.
This Regulatory Commitment applies to the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents from all units at the site.

a) During any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the whole body and to less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ.
b) During any calendar year to less than or equal to 3 mrem to the whole body and to less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ.
- 2) Applicability: At all times.
- 3) 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 10 CFR 50.4, a Special Report that identifies the cause(s) for exceeding the limit(s) and defines the corrective actions that have been taken to reduce the releases and the proposed corrective actions to be taken to assure that subsequent releases will be in compliance with the above limits.
- b. Surveillance Requirements
- 1) Cumulative dose contributions from liquid effluents for the current calendar quarter and the current calendar year shall be determined in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCP at least once per 31 days.
Bases: Liquid Effluents - Dose This Regulatory Commitment 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 to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." The dose calculation methodology and parameters in the ODCP implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I 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 ODCP 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 1.113, "Estimating Aquatic Dispersion of Effluents from Accidental and Routine Reactor Releases for the Purpose of Implementing Appendix I," April 1977.
This Regulatory Commitment applies to the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents from each unit at the site. For units with shared Radwaste Treatment Systems, the liquid effluents from the shared system are to be proportioned among the units sharing that system.

CY2.1D1 R11 Page 26 of 37 Gaseous Effluents - Dose Rate Operational Requirements Attachment 6: Page 3 of 4 Table Notations (1) The LLD is defined, for purposes of these specifications, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5%
probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.
For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation:
LLD = 4.66s, E* V* 2.22x10 6
- Y
- exp(-X*t)
Where:
LLD = the "a priori" lower limit of detection (microcuries per unit mass or volume),
Sb = the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (counts per minute),
E = the counting efficiency (counts per disintegration),
V 6= the sample size (units of mass or volume),
2.22 x 10 = the number of disintegrations per minute per microcurie, Y = the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, A = the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec 1), and At = the elapsed time between the midpoint of sample collection and the time of counting (sec).
Typical values of E, V, Y, and At should be used in the calculation.
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 posterior (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.
(2) Sampling and analyses shall also be performed following shutdown, startup, or a THERMAL POWER change exceeding 15% of the RATED THERMAL POWER within a 1-hour period, when either:
- a. Analysis shows that the DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 concentration in the reactor coolant has increased more than a factor of 3.
- b. The noble gas monitor shows that effluent activity has increased more than a factor of 3.
(3) Tritium grab samples shall be taken a least once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> when the refueling canal is flooded.
(4) Samples shall be changed at least once per 7 days and analyses shall be completed within 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> after changing or after removal from sampler.

When samples collected for 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> are analyzed, the corresponding LLD's may be increased by a factor of 10.
This requirement only applies when either:
- a. Analysis shows that the DOSE EQUIVALENT 1-131 concentration in the reactor coolant has increased more than a factor of 3.
- b. The noble gas monitor shows that effluent activity has increased more than a factor of 3.
(5) Tritium grab samples shall be taken at least once per 7 days from the ventilation exhaust from the spent fuel pool area, whenever spent fuel is in the spent fuel pool.
(6) The ratio of the sample flow rate to the sampled stream flow rate shall be known for the time period covered by each dose or dose rate calculation made in accordance with attachments 6, 7, and 8.
(7) The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification applies include the following radionuclides: Kr-87, Kr-88, Xe-133, Xe-133m, Xe-1 35, and Xe-1 38 in noble gas releases and Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, 1-131, Cs-1 34, Cs-1 37, Ce-141, and Ce-1 44 in Iodine and particulate releases. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be considered. Other gamma peaks that are identifiable, together with those of the above nuclides, shall also be analyzed and reported in the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report.
If two or more redundant sample and analysis results of the same discharge pathway indicate slight differences in low level isotopic mixture, the analysis resulting in higher calculated dose should be used. The isotopes chosen to represent the discharge shall be reported (8) Grab samples shall be taken and analyzed at least once per 31 days whenever there is flow through the steam generator blowdown tank. Releases of radioiodines shall be estimated based on secondary coolant concentration and partitioning factors during releases or shall be measured.

CY2.ID1 R11 Page 27 of 37 Gaseous Effluents - Dose Rate Operational Requirements Attachment 6: Page 4 of 4 Bases: Gaseous Effluents - Dose Rate This Regulatory Commitment is provided to ensure that the dose at any time at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY from gaseous effluents from all units on the site will be within the annual dose limits of NUREG 0133 to UNRESTRICTED AREAS. The annual dose limits are the doses to be associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 1. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC in an UNRESTRICTED AREA, either within or outside the SITE BOUNDARY, to average concentrations exceeding the limits to be specified in Appendix B, Table 2 of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR Part 20.1302(c)). For MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC who may at times be within the SITE BOUNDARY, the occupancy of that MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC will usually be sufficiently low to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the SITE BOUNDARY. Examples of calculations for such MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC, with the appropriate occupancy factors, shall be given in the ODCP. The specified release rate limits of NUREG 0133 restrict, presently, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY to less than or equal to 500 mrems/year to the whole body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrems/year to the skin.
These release rate limits also restrict, at all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background to a child via the inhalation pathway to less than or equal to 1500 mrems/year.
This Regulatory Commitment applies to the release of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents from all units at the site.
The required detection capabilities for radioactive material in gaseous waste samples are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLDs). Detailed discussion of the LLD, and other detection limits can be found in Currie, L.A., "Lower Limit of Detection: Definition and Elaboration of a Proposed Position for Radiological Effluent and Environmental Measurements," NUREG/CR-4007 (September 1984), and in the HASL Procedures Manual, HASL-300 (revised annually).

These equations also provide for determining the actual doses based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions. The release rate specifications for Iodine-1 31, Iodine-1 33, tritium, and radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days are dependent upon the existing radionuclide pathways to man in the areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY. The pathways that were examined in the development of the calculations were: (1) individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, (2) deposition of radionuclides onto green leafy vegetation with subsequent consumption by man, (3) deposition onto grassy areas where milk animals and meat-producing animals graze with consumption of the milk and meat by man, and (4) deposition on the ground with subsequent exposure of man.

- 1) The annual (calendar year) dose or dose commitment to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC due to releases of radioactivity and to radiation from uranium fuel cycle sources shall be limited to less than or equal to 25 mrems to the whole body or any organ, except the thyroid, which shall be limited to less than or equal to 75 mrems.
- 2) Applicability: At all times.
- 3) Action:
a) With the calculated doses from the release of radioactive materials in liquid or gaseous effluents exceeding twice the limits of attachments 4, 7, or 8, calculations shall be made including direct radiation contributions from the units and from outside storage tanks to determine whether the above limits of Attachment 10 have been exceeded. If such is the case, prepare and submit to the Commission within 30 days, pursuant to 10 CFR 50.4, a Special Report that defines the corrective action to be taken to reduce subsequent releases to prevent recurrence of exceeding the above limits and includes the schedule for achieving conformance with the above limits. This Special Report, as defined in 10 CFR 20.2203(a), shall include an analysis that estimates the radiation exposure (dose) to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from uranium fuel cycle sources, including all effluent pathway and direct radiation, for the calendar year that includes the release(s) covered by this report. It shall also describe levels of radiation and concentrations of radioactive material involved, and the cause of the exposure levels or concentrations. Ifthe estimated dose(s) exceeds the above limits, and if the release condition resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 has not already been corrected, the Special Report shall include a request for a variance in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR Part 190. Submittal of the report is considered a timely request, and a variance is granted until staff action on the request is complete.
- b. Surveillance Requirements
- 1) Cumulative dose contributions from liquid and gaseous effluents shall be determined in accordance with attachments 4, 7, and 8, and in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCP.
- 2) Cumulative dose contributions from direct radiation from the units and from outside storage tanks shall be determined in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCP. This requirement is applicable only under conditions set forth in ACTION a) of Attachment 10.

CY2.ID1 R11 Page 33 of 37 Total Dose Operational Requirements Attachment 10: Page 2 of 2 Bases: Total Dose This Regulatory Commitment is provided to meet the dose limitations of 40 CFR Part 190 that have been incorporated into 10 CFR Part 20 by 46 FR 18525. The specification requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses due to releases of radioactivity and to radiation from uranium fuel cycle sources exceed 25 mrems to the whole body or any organ, except the thyroid, which shall be limited to less than or equal to 75 mrems. For sites containing up to four reactors, it is highly unlikely that the resultant dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC will exceed the dose limits of 40 CFR Part 190 if the individual reactors remain within twice the dose design objectives of Appendix I, and if direct radiation doses from the units and from outside storage tanks are kept small. The Special Report will describe a course of action that should result in the limitation of the annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC to within the 40 CFR Part 190 limits.
For the purposes of the Special Report, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from other uranium fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contribution from other nuclear fuel cycle facilities at the same site or within a radius of 8 km must be considered. If the dose to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is estimated to exceed the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190, the Special Report with a request for a variance (provided the release conditions resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 have not already been corrected), in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR 190.11 and 10 CFR 20.2203(a), is considered to be a timely request and fulfills the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190 until NRC staff action is completed.
The variance only relates to the limits of 40 CFR Part 190, and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose limitation of 10 CFR Part 20, as addressed in attachments 3 and 6. An individual is not considered a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC during any period in which he/she is engaged in carrying out any operation that is part of the nuclear fuel cycle.

CY2.ID1 R11 Page 36 of 37 High Alarm Setpoints - FB & CR Ventilation Systems Actuation Instrumentation Attachment 13: Page 1 of 2
- 1. Fuel Building Ventilation System (FBVS) Instrumentation, RE-58 and RE-59
- a. RE-58 Nominal Setpoint < 75 mr/hr
- 1) Bases a) Fuel Handling Accident in Fuel Handling Building (1) The basis for the RE-58 high alarm setpoint is to initiate actions to mitigate offside dose consequences from air borne releases resulting from a fuel handling accident in the Spent Fuel Pool area. Routing ventilation exhaust from the Spent Fuel Pool area through the charcoal filter, thus stripping halogens (principally iodine isotopes) mitigates off-site dose consequences.
The rerouting of the ventilation is accomplished automatically upon receipt of a RE-58 high alarm. Receipt of the high alarm also signals personnel to evacuate the area. PG&E performed a calculation (RA-90-1-0 "High and Alert Alarm Setpoint for RE-58") to base the high alarm setpoint of RE-58 on the airborne radioactivity concentration in the fuel Handling Building for the FSAR Update Expected Case accident release during a fuel handling accident. The Expected Case Accident consequence presented in the FSAR Update is a less severe, but more probable accident than the FSAR Update Design Basis Case fuel handling accident. This resulted in a more conservative (lower) setpoint than that for the Design Basis Accident Case. This calculation analyzed the detector sensitivity to the various release nuclides as presented in the FSAR Update.
(2) The high alarm setpoint is set to a value more consistent with the Expected Case Accident dose rates which eliminates spurious ESF actuation while limiting the off-site consequences due to this accident. A < 75mr/hr setpoint equates to a site boundary whole body dose of 1.46mr for the duration of the accident, which has been evaluated as being acceptable.
b) Inadvertent Criticality in the Spent Fuel Pool (1) The high density Spent Fuel Pool racks were redesigned to assure that a Ke, equal to or less than 0.95 is maintained with the racks fully loaded with fuel of the highest anticipated reactivity in each of two regions, and flooded with unborated water at a temperature corresponding to the highest reactivity.
PG&E submitted PG&E Letter No. DCL-85-30, "Re-racking of Spent Fuel Pools," on September 19, 1985. The results of the criticality analysis for normal and abnormal operations were evaluated in this report. LAR 85-13 (PG&E Letter No. DCL-85-333) was submitted on October 30, 1985, and summarized the results of the Spent Fuel Pool re-racking report. Postulated events that could potentially involve accidental criticality were examined and it was concluded that the limiting value for criticality (Keff of 0.95) would not be exceeded. Therefore, an inadvertent criticality in the Spent Fuel Pool is not considered a credible accident and an evaluation of the effect of raising the actuation setpoint on RE-58 was not required.
(2) Radiation monitor RE-59, which monitors the new fuel storage vault area, also provides indication of inadvertent criticality and changes in dose rate for radiation protection purposes.

CY2.ID1 R11 Page 37 of 37 High Alarm Setpoints - FB & CR Ventilation Systems Actuation Instrumentation Attachment 13: Page 2 of 2
- b. RE-59 Nominal Setpoint < 15mr/hr
the Fuel Handling Building areas in which RE-59 is located is classified as Zone III, "Controlled Assess Requiring Short-Term Occupancy" as indicated in Design Criteria Memorandum DCM-T20.
b) The Zone III design maximum dose rate is < 15mr/hr. If the radiation flux reaches this value, the high alarm will be actuated and the ventilation mode will change as indicated above with the RE-58 high alarm actuation.
- 2. Control Room Ventilation System (CRVS) Instrumentation, RS-25A and RS-26A
- a. RS-25A/RS-26A Nominal Setpoint < 2 mr/hr
- 1) Bases a) Per calculations DV-1-23 and DV-2723 attachment 2:
(1) The applicable NRC requirement for the radiation exposure (dose) to personnel in the Main Control Room is 10 CFR 20.105 "Permissible Level of Radiation in Unrestricted Areas" (superseded). Section b (1) of 10 CFR 20.105 limits the radiation dose for unrestricted areas to 2mr/hr and Section b (2) limits the dose to 100mr is seven consecutive days. If an operator works in the control room for 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> per week (12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> per day and 4 days per week, a normal operator work week) during a 2mr/hr dose rate, the operator will receive a 96mr dose. This is less than the 100mr/week dose limit of 10 CFR 20.105 (superseded). Thus, a setpoint of < 2 mr/hr has been established for the Control Room Air Inlet Radiation Monitors. Ifthe radiation flux reaches this value at any of the detectors, a change in the ventilation to Mode 4 will be initiated.
(2) 10 CFR 20.105 has been superseded and any changes to this setpoint will require a basis change to reflect the requirements of 10 CFR 50 Appendix A Criterion 19.
- 3. All of the setpoints are controlled by the setpoint control program CF6.ID1 and require a design change vehicle (request per CF4.ID1) to change. Actual field setpoints are set more conservative to account for instrument errors.

Table 1 Notes:
Deviations are permitted from the required sampling schedule if specimens are unobtainable due to circumstances such as hazardous conditions, seasonal unavailability, malfunction of automatic sampling equipment and other legitimate reasons. If specimens are unobtainable due to sampling equipment malfunction, 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. It is recognized that, at times, it may not be possible or practicable to continue to obtain samples of the media of choice at the most desired location or time. In these instances, suitable specific alternative media and locations may be chosen for the particular pathway in question and appropriate substitutions made within 30 days in the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program, and submitted in the next Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report, including a revised figure(s) and table for the ERMP reflecting the new location(s) with supporting information identifying the cause of the unavailability of samples for that pathway and justifying the section of the new location(s) for obtaining samples.
2 For the purposes of this table, a thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) is considered to be one phosphor. There are normally three calcium sulfate phosphors in an environmental TLD BADGE. Film badges shall not be used as dosimeters for measuring direct radiation.
3 Airborne particulate sample filters shall be analyzed for gross beta radioactivity 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or more after sampling to allow for radon and thoron daughter decay. If gross beta activity in air particulate samples is greater than 10 times the yearly mean of control samples, gamma isotopic analysis shall be performed on the individual samples.
4 Gamma isotopic analysis means the identification and quantification of gamma-emitting radionuclides that may be attributable to the effluents from the facility.
5 If broadleaf vegetation food products are unavailable, additional air sampling as specified in Table 1, Parts 2 & 3 will be done in the NNW (Station 1S1) and SE (Station 8S2) sectors.
6 The Branch Technical Position (Nov 79) states, "Any location from which milk can no longer be obtained may be dropped from the surveillance program after notifying the NRC in writing that they are no longer obtainable at that location". Although the milk sampling performed at 5F2 is outside the 5-mile radius and is supplemental to the REMP, this notification should take place if 5F2 milk sampling ceases.

Table 2 Notes:
For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation:
LLD 4 . 6 6 sb E x V x 2.22 x Y x exp(-Xt)
Where:
LLD = the "a priori" the lower limit of detection as defined above (as pCi per unit mass or volume)
Sb = the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (as counts per minute)
E = the counting efficiency (as counts per transformation)
V = the sample size (in units of mass or volume) 2.22 = the number of transformations per minute per picocurie Y = the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable)
A = the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide t = the elapsed time between sample collection (or end of the sample collection period) and time of counting The value of Sb used in the calculation of the LLD for a detection system will be based on the actual observed variance of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of the blank samples (as appropriate) rather than on an unverified theoretically predicted variance. In calculating the LLD for a radionuclide determined by gamma-ray spectrometry, the background will include the typical contributions of other radionuclides normally present in the samples (e.g., potassium-40 in milk samples).
Analyses will 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 Environmental Radiological Operating Report.
Typical values of E, V, Y and t should be used in the calculation. It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a Driori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as a posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.

- 1. SCOPE 1.1 This administrative procedure provides the calculational methodology for radiological liquid and gaseous effluents for Diablo Canyon.
1.2 Dose methodologies are based on models and data that make it unlikely to substantially underestimate the actual exposure of an individual through any of the appropriate pathways.
Attachments containing the values for the various parameters used in these expressions are also included.

Off-Site Dose Calculations CAP A-8 R36 Page 2 of 69 UNITS 1 &2 1.3 Implementation of the Environmental Radiological Monitoring Procedure (ERMP) is found in RP1.ID11.
1.4 Changes to CAP A-8 are processed per the requirements of DCPP Technical Specification (TS) Section 5.5.1 .T02694 1.5 This procedure has been rewritten; therefore, revision bars are not included.
- 2. DISCUSSION 2.1 This procedure is used in support of the Radiological Monitoring and Controls Program (RMCP), the Radioactive Effluent Controls Program (RECP), and with routine radioactive liquid and gaseous releases to the unrestricted area.
2.2 Program limits are based on the dose commitment to a member of the general public related to the release of radionuclides through either direct or indirect exposure (e.g., submersion in a cloud of radioactive noble gases, radionuclides deposited on the ground, direct radiation from radionuclides stored on-site, inhalation or ingestion of radionuclides via a food pathway such as milk, meat, vegetable, fish, etc.).
- 3. DEFINITIONS 3.1 Allocation Factor (AF): A factor used in the DCPP high alarm setpoint (HASP) methodology that limits:
- Effluent concentrations from simultaneous liquid discharges.
- Noble gas effluent dose rate from simultaneous atmospheric releases.
3.2 Critical Receptor: That individual who receives the largest dose based on the combination of dose pathways that have been shown to actually exist.
3.3 Effluent Concentration Limit (ECL): Liquid effluents entering the unrestricted area are limited to the concentrations listed in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2.
3.4 Expected Reading (ER): The anticipated monitor response based on the known release pathway concentration and the specific monitor response factors.
3.5 High Alarm Setpoint (HASP): An "administrative limit" set per CY2.DC1 to ensure radiation monitor release setpoints calculated do not exceed the liquid or gaseous effluent concentration limits of 10 CFR 20.
3.6 Safety Factor (SF): The SF is defined as 0.9 and provides for a HASP at 90% of the 10 CFR 20 concentration limits.
3.7 Unplanned (Liquid or Gaseous) Release: An unplanned release is an unexpected and potentially unmonitored release to the environment due to operational error or equipment malfunctions.

- a. Introduction
- 1. The DCPP RECP requires liquid effluent monitors to be OPERABLE with their alarm/trip setpoints set to ensure that the effluent concentration limits of 10 CFR 20 are not exceeded.T3493 9
- 2. The alarm/trip setpoints for the liquid effluent radiation monitors are derived from the concentration limits in Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 of 10 CFR 20.1001-2404.
- 3. The alarm/trip setpoints are applied at the unrestricted area boundary and take into account appropriate factors for dilution, dispersion, or decay of radioactive materials that may occur between the point of discharge and the unrestricted area boundary.
- b. Allocation and Safety Factors
- 1. The limits of RECP Attachment 3 are site limits which require the setpoint methodology ensures simultaneous releases do not exceed the liquid effluent concentration limits of 10 CFR 20 in the unrestricted area.
- 2. The DCPP high alarm setpoint (HASP) methodology uses an allocation factor (AF) which may be adjusted based on operational requirements with the restriction that the sum of liquid release AFs be less than or equal to 1.

- 3. An additional level of conservatism in the HASP methodology is implemented by the use of a safety factor (SF).

Off-Site Dose Calculations CAP A-B R36 Page 8 of 69 UNITS 1&2
- c. Tritium Correction Factor NOTE 1: Due to an aggressive liquid radwaste treatment program, the liquid effluents at DCPP typically contain very low levels of gamma emitters.
NOTE 2: In the past, DCPP used to recycle waste water using evaporators to reduce the overall volume of liquid waste discharged, which resulted in higher tritium concentration in liquid effluents when compared with the low gamma emitter concentrations. As a result, standard HASP methodology resulted in very low setpoints, in some cases, barely above the monitor background.
- 1. The liquid HASP methodology used by DCPP uses a tritium correction factor (TCF) which assumes a constant, but conservative, tritium concentration in the liquid effluent and results in an operationally reasonable setpoint while ensuring that liquid effluent concentrations released to the unrestricted areas do not exceed 10 CFR 20 limits.
a) Although recycling waste water using evaporators has been discontinued, using the TCF is retained as a good practice.
- 2. The TCF is defined in eq 7:
F/f (q7 TCF= [1_/CH3 /ECLH3 , (eq 7)
Where:
ECLH3 = effluent concentration limit of tritium CH3 = tritium concentration in release mix, pre-dilution (pCi/mL)
[Tritium concentration "CH3" is conservatively estimated.]
F = conservative dilution flowrate (gpm) f = conservative undiluted effluent flowrate (gpm)

a) The HASP represents the maximum operational setpoint.
- 2. HASP Methodology for RE-3: Oily Water Separator (OWS) a) Normal Conditions
- 1) Under normal conditions, the OWS stream does not contain any radioactive material. Only when there is primary-to-secondary leakage does this become a potential liquid effluent discharge point.
- 2) To insure that no unplanned or unmonitored releases take place via the OWS, RE-3 monitors the discharge even when no activity has been identified in the effluent.
- 3) When no significant primary-to-secondary leakage is taking place, or when no activity has been identified in the OWS, the RE-3 HASP is calculated per eq 8:
HASPRE.3 = 3 x BKGDRE.3 (eq 8)

Off-Site Dose Calculations CAP A-8 R36 Page 10 of 69 UNITS 1 &2 b) Primary-to-Secondary Leakage

- a. Significant Pathway
- 1. During normal operations, the only significant path for gaseous radioactive waste (GRW) release to the environment is via the plant vent.
- 2. This source is used to calculate dose rates and real-time doses to the unrestricted area due to noble gases, vaporous radioiodines, and airborne radio-particulates.
- 3. The plant vent also has redundant monitoring for these types of gaseous releases.
- b. Miscellaneous Pathways
- 1. The following pathways are considered miscellaneous:
0 SGBD tank vent
- Chemistry lab fume hood
- Main condenser Nash vacuum pump discharge
- 2. These miscellaneous release sources are not continuously monitored but may have dose rates and dose calculated for their path to the unrestricted area.
5.2.2 Meteorological
- a. Methodology
- 1. Equations for calculating gaseous effluent concentration limits, high alarm setpoints, dose rates, and critical receptor doses use historical average atmospheric conditions per methodologies of Reg. Guides 1.109 and 1.111, and NUREGs 0133 and 0472.
- 2. The historical average dispersion (x/Q) and deposition (D/Q) values are derived from the methodology of Reg. Guide 1.111 as implemented by NUREG 2919 (computer code XOQDOQ).
- 3. DCPP dispersion and deposition values are based on the latest five years of meteorological data and are updated when the value of x/Q or D/Q changes by more than ten percent.
- 4. Current values are listed in Attachment 2.
CAP_A-8u3r36.DOC 0718.1444
Off-Site Dose Calculations CAP A-8 R36 Page 19 of 69 UNITS 1&2
- b. Long-term Releases
- 1. These releases are characterized as those that are generally continuous and stable in release rate, such as normal ventilation systems effluents.
- 2. Doses due to long-term releases are modeled using five-year historical average dispersion and deposition values per the guidance of Reg. Guides 1.109 and 1.111, and NUREGs 0133 and 0472.
- c. Short-term Releases
- 1. These releases are defined as those which occur:
- For a total of 500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-4 months <br /> or less in a calendar year.
- Not more than 150 hours0.00174 days <br />0.0417 hours <br />2.480159e-4 weeks <br />5.7075e-5 months <br /> in any quarter.
- 2. Per NUREG 0133, and based on an operational history that has demonstrated short-term gaseous releases may be characterized as random in both time of day and duration, five-year historical average atmospheric dispersion and deposition values are used to model doses due to short-term releases.
5.2.3 Gas Effluent Concentration Limits
- a. Philosophy of Concentration Limits
- 1. Dose Rate Limits a) The radiological effluent controls restrict, at all times, the dose rate due to radioactive materials released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at or beyond the site boundary to the following:
- 1) For noble gases:
- Less than or equal to 500 mrem/yr to the total body
- Less than or equal to 3000 mrem/yr to the skin
- 2) For iodine-1 31, iodine-1 33, tritium, and for all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days:
- Less than or equal to 1500 mrem/yr to any organ b) These dose rate limits act to restrict, at all times, the instantaneous concentrations of radionuclides in gaseous effluents at the site boundary.
CAP_A-8u3r36.DOC 0718.1444
Off-Site Dose Calculations CAP A-8 R36 Page 20 of 69 UNITS 1&2
- 2. Allocation Factors a) The limits set forth by CY2.1D1, Attachment 6, are site limits which require the setpoint methodology ensures simultaneous releases do not exceed the off-site dose rate limits.
b) The DCPP high alarm setpoint (HASP) methodology uses an allocation factor (AF) which may be adjusted based on operational requirements with the following restrictions:
" The sum of the AFs for RE-14 (plant vent noble gas monitor), the SGBD tank vents, and miscellaneous gaseous release points from both units shall be less than or equal to 1.
- AFs for RE-22 (waste gas decay tanks) and RE-44 (containment purge) may be adjusted based on operational requirements with the restriction that the sum of the AFs for RE-22 and RE-44 shall be less than or equal to the AF for RE-14.
- AFs for RE-24 (plant vent iodine monitor) and RE-28 (plant vent particulate monitor) are set equal to the AF for RE-14.

- a. Calculation Methodology
- 1. The dose to an individual (critical receptor) due to radioiodines, tritium, carbon-14 (C-14), and particulates released in gaseous effluents with half-lives greater than 8 days is calculated based on the methodology described in NUREG 0133. This methodology makes use of the maximum individual concept described in Reg. Guide 1.109.
a) Maximum Individual
- 1) The maximum individual is characterized as maximum with regard to food consumption, occupancy, and other usage parameters. This concept models those individuals within the local population with habits representing reasonable deviations from the average.
- 2) In all physiological and metabolic respects, the maximum individual is assumed to have those characteristics that represent the average for the age group of interest.
b) Critical Receptor
- 1) The concept of critical receptor is introduced as a further refinement of the maximum individual.
- 2) The critical receptor concept is applied at that location where the combination of dispersion (x/Q), deposition (D/Q), existing pathways, occupancy time, receptor age group, and effluent source term indicates the maximum potential exposure.

- a. Exposure due to liquid releases while on-site is highly unlikely and therefore not addressed.
- b. Exposure due to gaseous releases and direct radiation are credible and therefore are considered.
5.4.3 Dose Calculations
- a. Dose to members of the public during on-site activities will be primarily calculated based on:
- The duration of the on-site visitation time.
- The closest proximity to the plant.
- b. For gaseous releases, the doses are calculated per:
- eq 41 (noble gas total body dose)
- eq 42 (noble gas skin dose)
- 1. The"Ri" in eq 34:
a) Considers only the inhalation and ground plane pathway.
b) Excludes the infant age group.

- a. Based on Reg. Guide 1.111, these equations may be expected to provide reasonable dispersion and deposition estimates for distances as close as 200 meters.
- b. Determination of direct radiation dose from the reactor units and from outside storage tanks, storage building, and the ISFSI may be made by:
- Direct survey measurements.
- Derived from environmental TLD data.
- Calculated by shielding code.
- c. A distance of 200 meters from the plant (both units) equidistant from the plant vent is arbitrarily selected as the closest perimeter for which on-site doses will be calculated.

Attachment 7 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 Attachment 7 2012 DCPP Land Use Census
Attachment 7 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 2012 DCPP LAND USE CENSUS Diablo Canyon Power Plant (DCPP) Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) personnel conducted a land use census in the vicinity of DCPP for 2012. The land use census is based on Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Regulatory Guide 4.8, "Environmental Technical Specifications for Nuclear Power Plants" and 10 CFR 50 Appendix I section IV. B. 3.
DCPP Program Directive CY2, "Radiological Monitoring and Controls Program" requires performance of a land use census.
DCPP IDAP RP1.IDll, "Environmental Radiological Monitoring Procedure",
requires identification of the nearest milk animal, nearest residence, and the nearest broadleaf producing garden greater than 50 square meters (500 square feet) in each of the landward meteorological sectors within a distance of 8 kilometers (5 miles) of the plant. The land use census is conducted at least once per year during the growing season (between Feb 15 and Dec 1) for the Diablo Canyon environs.
The 2012 Land Use Census was conducted via a helicopter over-flight and landowner telephone / personal interviews. The helicopter over-flight was conducted on November 5 th, 2012. The telephone / personal interviews were conducted November 2 7 th through November 29th, 2012. Eight individual landowners or tenantswere contacted.
Milk:
No milk animals were identified within the first 8 kilometers (5 miles) of any sector.
Residences:
The nearest residence, relative to all sectors, was a small trailer located in the NW sector about 1.93 kilometers (1.2 miles) from the plant. Ranch workers occupied this BLANCHARD residence approximately 1 month (per year) during cattle round-ups.
A total of fifteen residences were identified within the 8-kilometer (5-mile) radius of the plant, which were confirmed or appear to have been occupied in 2012.
One home was unoccupied during 2012. Six abandoned structures were also identified.
The nearest residence in each sector is summarized in Table 1.
Gardens:
The land use census identified two household gardens greater than 50 square meters (500 square feet) that produced broadleaf vegetation. The READ garden (REMP 3C1) was approximately % acre and located in the NNE sector at 7.08 kilometers (4.41 miles). The KOONZE garden (REMP 6C1) was approximately 500 square feet and located in the E sector at 7.24 kilometers (4.5 miles).

Attachment 7 PG&E Letter DCL-1 3-042 MELLO managed a farm in the ESE sector along the site access road coastal plateau. The farm started at approximately 4.8 km and extended to 7.2 km (3 to 4.5 miles) from the plant. This commercial farm produced no broadleaf vegetation. The farm area was about 100 acres of land with rotational planting.
Commercial crops consisted of about 100% cereal grass (oat hay) and straw grass. Less than 10 farm workers periodically occupied this area during the growing season.
Additional Land Use:
Much of the area outside the plant site-boundary was used for rotational cattle grazing by five separate cattle operations. For purposes of this census, the five cattle ranches were called BLANCHARD, SINSHEIMER, READ, ANDRE, and MELLO.
BLANCHARD had about 100 cattle outside the plant site-boundary and utilized the NW, NNW, N, and NNE sectors. About 80 yearling cattle were sold under the "Old Creek Ranch" label at local farmer's markets in 2012.
Additionally, BLANCHARD managed about 150 goats that were used for weed abatement in all landward sectors within the plant site-boundary. During 2012, approximately 100 baby goats were born and taken to Santa Margarita California where they were grass fed for one year. After one year, the 100 yearling goats were sold under the "Old Creek Ranch" label at local farmer's markets in 2012.
BLANCHARD also managed about 150 sheep outside the plant site-boundary in the NW and NNW sectors. These sheep were allowed to breed and the yearlings were sold under the "Old Creek Ranch" label at local farmer's markets in 2012.
The BLANCHARD's consumed about 75 pounds of these various meats during 2012.
"Old Creek Ranch" labeled meats were sampled quarterly by REMP personnel.
SINSHEIMER had about 100 cattle outside the plant site-boundary in the NNE sector. These cattle were allowed to breed and about 90 calves were sold to mass market in 2012.
READ had about 110 adult cattle and 110 calves outside the plant site-boundary in the NNE sector. About 110 yearling cattle were sold under the "Old Creek Ranch" label at local farmer's markets in 2012.
ANDRE had about 80 cattle outside the plant site-boundary in the ENE sector.
About 80 calves were sold to mass market in 2012. ANDRE did not slaughter any cattle in 2012 for personal consumption.
MELLO managed about 800 cattle outside the plant site-boundary in the E, ESE, and SE sectors. Harris Ranch Beef Corporation owned these cattle and sold all of them to mass market in 2012. MELLO did not slaughter any cattle in 2012 for personal consumption.

Attachment 7 PG&E Letter DCL-13-042 Two landowners (JOHE and ANDRE) harvested wild game for personal consumption outside the plant site-boundary in the NNE, NE, and ENE sectors.
This wild game consisted of approximately 2 deer and 4 wild pigs per landowner.
There was a California State Park Ranger Office in the NNW sector at 7.483 kilometers (4.65 miles) from the plant. Approximately 3 people occupied this office from 1000 to 1500 each day per week.
There was a public campground (Islay Creek Campground) located in the NNW sector at Montana de Oro State Park at 7.387 kilometers (4.59 miles). This campground was near Spooner's Cove.
Approximately 713,000 people visited Montana de Oro State Park via day use permit.
Approximately 22,000 people spent the night at Islay Creek Campground.
There was public access to hiking trails at the north and south ends of the PG&E property in 2012.
The Point Buchon Trail was located at the north end of PG&E property and had about 20,000 visitors. The trail traversed about 3.5 miles of coastline from Coon Creek to Crowbar Canyon. The trail was open for day hikes Thursday thru Monday from approximately 0800-1600. Two to three people from California Land Management occupied the trail head booth during operating hours. This trail was originally opened to the public on July 13, 2007.
The Pecho Coast Trail was located at the south end of PG&E property and had about 2,500 visitors. The trail was approximately 3.7 miles long and led to the Point San Luis Lighthouse near Avila Beach. Access was controlled (by permission only) and conducted by docents. This trail was just slightly outside the 5 mile radius of the plant. Pecho Coast Trail hikes were only available on Wednesdays (about 20 people) and Saturdays (about 40 people). 30-40 Lighthouse keepers occupied the Lighthouse grounds on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays from 0800-1600. The Lighthouse property was owned by the Harbor District.
Groundwater Protection Initiative (GPI) Review:
There were no site construction activities or spills that warranted changes to GPI monitoring frequencies, monitoring locations, contract lab analytical capabilities, or detection thresholds in 2012.
There were no changes in on-site or near site water usage that would result in potential unusual use of site ground water used as drinking / irrigation water in 2012.
Two new GPI monitoring wells (to the west of the site) were completed in December of 2011. These two new monitoring wells (station codes GWI and GW2) were down gradient of the power block site along the Pacific Ocean boundary. Isotopic sampling of these new wells was conducted in 2012.

Question 2.a:
Does the proposed activity/change Involve a change to an SSC that adversely affects an UFSAR described design function?
.The Advanced Filtration mobile liquid radwaste skid will support the UFSAR section 11.2.3.1 design funr.tion of augryie-ting plant liquiu radwaste components to process radwasta.
The Advanced Filtration mobile liquid radwaste skid will be installed in the 85' elevation of the Auxiliary Building, In the (abandoned) waste concentrator room. The skid and mounts will be seismically designed to preclude collapse, gross leakage, or detachment from anchorage. Floor loading remains acceptable per Calculation 9000008812.
The liquid radwaste piping will be modified by adding fittings, valves, and quick disconnects (with necessary supports) to facilitate connection to the Advanced Filtration mobile liquid radwaste skid via hoses. The modified piping will be equivalent to the existing class "H"piping.
The Advanced Filtration mobile liquid radwaste skid requires 480V at approximately 20 amps when operating.
Itwill be plugged into a welding receptacle that will be Installed Inthe waste concentrator room. The added receptacle will be powered from a new 30 amp breaker (replacing an abandoned existing 20 amp breaker 52-12M-27, previously serving the Boric Acid Evaporator heater) on the 480V non-vital bus 12M. The Boric Acid Evaporator skid is abandoned In place. That load deduction has not previously been credited. The added load for the new skid is less than the load reduction. Therefore bus loading is not adversely affected by this connection per ELCR 480-385.
UFSAR section 12.1.2.5 describes the Auxiliary Building shielding design and figure 12.1-5 shows estimated concentrations inthe later abandoned Waste Concentrator which is the basis for the original Waste Concentrator room shielding.
Per UFSAR Table 12.1-5, the estimated concentration of Co6O in the Waste Evaporator was 1.5E-4 uCi/cc which is orders of magnitude higher than the concentration that the RW/RO unit will contain. Therefore, the shielding Inthe cubicle where the skid is being installed Is adequate for this application.
Order/Operation 6802021310050 was issued to RP to address any requirements for radiation area designation.
Based on EPRI/NUMARK TR 102348 criteria, this modification is considered a 'digital upgrade" due to the addition.of a PLC which is vendor programmed to control the instrumentation functions on the skid. The DCP Evaluation section addressed this issue and concluded that any potential failure of the skid components, Including the PLC software, will have no impact on the Liquid Radwaste System, or any other DCPP systems.
As indicated above this modification does not affect the design function of the Liquid Radwaste System, per the guidance provided in"Guidance on Licensing Digital upgrades EPRI TR-102348 revision 1 NEI 01-01 (March 2002), section 4.3.1, this modification will screen out. The following discussion will address the Software consideration, Digital issues (hardware) and the Human- System Interface for this digital upgrade.
Software Issues:
Based on the relevant OE searches performed in support of this design change, documented insection 10 of the DCE, the Liquid Radwaste skid technology employed by the Advanced Filtration skid Is neither complex nor uncommon In the Nuclear Industry. The PLC that provides control and indication function for the Advanced Filtration mobile liquid radwaste skid is a standard unit that is used widely In the Industry. The programming of the PLC Is determined not to be complex (simple software architecture) as there are a limited number of Inputs and outputs as indicated on drawings DC 6024542-5-1, 1, 1, and 1. The system design is relatively simple as there are well defined failure modes and these failure modes are identified in section 11 of the DCE.
Also, this skid's operation is monitored and any system malfunctions will be detected and isolated.
Digital Issues:
As noted in the FMEA section of the DCE, this digital upgrade will not create any failure modes that would impact the UFSAR design function of the mobile liquid radwaste skid. The unit will undergo design verification LRW RO Screen eds 091712.DOC 0915.0549
Attachment 6B - DDP 1"24852-000 Page 3 of 5 DCPP Form 69-21097 (11119111) TS3.1D2 Attachment 2 10 CFR 50.59172.48 Screen Page 3 of 5 testing to ensure it is capable of performing its intended function. Failure of the process hardware has been reviewed in the OE section of the DCE and determined not to be significant. The skid has the appropriate hatdware (e.g. pressure relief valves) to prevent malfunctions and system failures In the event of an error introduced by the digital enhancement.
Human-System Interface:
The HSI characteristics of the Advanced Filtration mobile radwaste skid are enhanced over the previously installed unit. The operator interface touch screen is used to indicate system performance and control the skid's operation. The control of this skid is essentially the same as a previously Installed unlL The Indication of the skid's performance can be monitored at the unit and the overall system impact by a skid potential failure can be monitored at the Aux. Board. When in use the skid Is monitored by an operator, similar to a previously installed unit, therefore, there is no increase in operator burden. As noted in the FMEA section of the DCE, a malfunction in the touch pad display will not create any new operating burdens as the operator is either present oralarms (visible and audible) are available while the skid is in operation. The skid has been designed to allow fW"solation and by-pass ri a ,,.aliuncion in-i.wl*-idware; suftwai e or equipment is observed by the operaijr.-
Conclusion:
As stated above there Is no change to the UFSAR described design function for this modification and the digital upgrade does not introduce any fundamental changes in the method of performing or controlling the design function of the skid.
