SUMMARY
OF MONITORING RESULTS 5
Summary The Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report presents data obtained through analyses of environmental samples collected for Grand Gulf Nuclear Station's (GGNS)
Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) for the period January 1, 2016, through December 31, 2016. This report fulfills the requirements of GGNS Technical Specification 5.6.2.
To supplement the REMP, GGNS personnel installed duplicate TLDs and collected duplicate samples during the reporting period.
Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program GGNS established the REMP in 1978 prior to the station becoming operational (1985) to provide data on background radiation and radioactivity normally present in the area. GGNS has continued to monitor the environment by sampling air, water, sediment, fish and food products, as well as measuring radiation directly. GGNS also samples milk, if commercial milk production occurs within five miles of the plant.
The REMP includes sampling indicator and control locations within an 18-mile radius of the plant. The REMP utilizes indicator locations near the site to show any increases or buildup of radioactivity that might occur due to station operation and control locations farther away from the site to indicate naturally occurring background radioactivity. GGNS personnel compare indicator results with control and preoperational results to assess any impact GGNS operation might have on the surrounding environment.
In 2016, GGNS personnel collected environmental samples for radiological analysis. The monitoring results for indicator locations when compared to control locations and previous studies show that GGNS has no significant effect on the local environment. The review of 2016 monitoring data, in many cases, showed undetectable radiation levels in the environment and near background levels in potential exposure pathways associated with GGNS.
Harmful Effects or Irreversible Damage The REMP monitoring did not detect any harmful effects or evidence of irreversible damage in the current year.
Reporting Levels When averaged over any calendar quarter, no environmental samples equaled or exceeded reporting levels for radioactivity as outlined in Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM)
Specifications Table 6.12.1-2; the analytical results did not trigger any Radiological Monitoring Program Special Reports.
Radioactivitv Not Attributable to GGNS Over previous years, the GGNS REMP detected radioactivity attributable to other sources.
These sources included the Chinese nuclear test in 1980 and the accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in 1986. In 2011, the GGNS REMP detected radioactivity released from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant following the March 11,2011, Tohoku earthquake. In 2016, the GGNS REMP detected no radioactivity attributable to other sources.

Comparison to Federal and State Programs GGNS personnel compare REMP data to federal and state monitoring programs. Historically, the programs used for comparison included the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
Thermoluminescent Dosimeter (TLD) Direct Radiation Monitoring Network and the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH), Division of Radiological Health monitoring program.
Although the NRC TLD Network Program was discontinued in 1998, these results compared favorably to those from the GGNS REMP.
The MSDH and the GGNS REMP have similar monitoring requirements. These programs include co-located air sampling and sharing sample media such as water, sediment, fish and food products. Both programs have obtained similar results. The 2016 results of the MSDH monitoring program compared favorably with the GGNS REMP results.
Sample Deviations
- Milk The GGNS aDCM requires collection of milk samples if there is a commercially available source within 5 miles (8 km) of the plant. In 2016*, the REMP did not include milk sampling because no commercial milk production occurred within 5 miles of GGNS. GGNS personnel instead collected vegetation samples to monitor the ingestion pathway, as specified in aDCM Specifications Table 6.12.1-1.
- Required Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) Values Analytical lower limit of detection (LLD) values required by the aDCM specifications achieved in 2016 were within the limits for all samples with the following exception:
Sample Type Location I Analysis Nuclides Date Air Particulate AS-3 VA 11-131 & Gross Beta lodine-131 05/10/16 - 05/17/17 Gross Beta Cause was attributed to unavoidable small sample size due to failure of the sampling equipment. All remaining LLDs were achieved and no plant related nuclides were detected in the 2016 samples. As described in aDCM Specification Table 6.12.1-3, footnote (b), LLDs may be unachievable due to unavoidable small sample size and other legitimate reasons.
Air particulate samples are collected weekly at indicator [AS-1 PG, AS-7 UH] and control [AS-3 VA] locations. In addition, a quarterly composite sample for each location is analyzed for gamma isotopic. For all remaining 2016 air particulate samples, LLDs were achieved and no plant related nuclides were detected.

- Thermoluminescent Dosimeters TLD M-36 (Sector P, Radius 5.0 Miles), was unavailable during 2 nd quarter, 2016, due to the TLD was missing during sample collection. As described in aDCM Specification Table 6.12.1-1, footnote (a), deviations from the required sampling schedule are permitted due to malfunction of sampling equipment and other legitimate reasons.
- Air Samples The following air sample locations had reduced run times due to weather-related power outages or mechanical problems. As described in aDCM Specification Table 6.12.1-1, footnote (a), deviations from the required sampling schedule are permitted due to malfunction of sampling equipment and other legitimate reasons.

- Missed Samples All required samples were collected in accordance with REMP requirements. There were no missed samples.
- Unavailable Results GGNS received analytical results in adequate time for inclusion in this report.
Program Modifications During 2016, one additional air monitoring station was installed in the vicinity of the nearest community located within Sector L. Meteorological data indicates that Sector L has the highest calculated X/Q at the site boundary. The new air sampling location was placed in service on 06/14/16. The additional monitoring location will enhance the site's radiological environmental monitoring program, and will demonstrate robust compliance with the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual requirements. Laboratory analytical data indicates 1-131 and Gross Beta activity levels are similar for samples collected from AS-20 and the existing control location AS-3.
Attachments contains results of TLD, air, water, sediment, fish, food products and special samples collected in the reporting period. TLDs were analyzed by Stanford Dosimetry of Sterling, MA. Other samples were analyzed by Teledyne Brown Engineering of Knoxville, TN.
Tables A 9.1 and A 9.2 includes results from Stanford Dosimetry's and Teledyne Brown Engineering's participation in interlaboratory comparison programs.

1.0 Introduction 1.1 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program GGNS established the REMP to ensure that plant operating controls properly function to minimize any radiation that could endanger human health or the environment. The REMP is designed to:
- Analyze important pathways for anticipated types and quantities of radionuclides released into the environment,
- Consider the possibility of a buildup of long-lived radionuclides in the environment and identify any physical and biological accumulations that may contribute to human exposures,
- Consider the potential radiation exposure to plant and animal life in the environment surrounding GGNS,
- Correlate levels of radiation and radioactivity in the environment with radioactive releases from the operation of GGNS.
1.2 Pathways Monitored The airborne, direct radiation, waterborne and ingestion pathways, as seen in Figure 1-1 are monitored as required by the GGNS aDCM Table 6.12.1-1. A description of the GGNS REMP utilized to monitor the exposure pathways is provided in Table 1.2 and shown in Figures 1-2 and 1-3. GGNS may supplement this program with additional sampling in order to provide a comprehensive and well-balanced program.
Section 2.0 of this report provides a discussion of sampling results, with Section 3.0 providing a summary of results for the monitored exposure pathways.
1.3 Land Use Census GGNS personnel conduct a biennial land use census, as required by aDCM Specification 6.12.2. The most recent land use census data are included in Table 2.1. The purpose of this census is to identify land use changes within each of the 16 meteorological sectors and within a 5-mile radius of GGNS that would require modifications to the REMP or the aDCM.
GGNS personnel conduct the land use census by:
- Conducting field surveys.
- Identifying locations on maps and aerial photographs and measuring distances to GGNS
- Comparing current land use census results to results from the previous census
- Contacting the Claiborne County Agent for verification of nearest dairy animals 10 2*
No significant changes were identified between the biennial land use census performed in 2014 and the most recent census performed in 2016 that would require modifications to the REMP or the ODeM.

2.0 Interpretation and Trends of Results 2.1 Air Particulate and Radioiodine Sample Results GGNS did not detect any plant related gamma emitting radionuclides in the quarterly air particulate composites .
. The REMP had previously detected airborne radioactivity attributable to other sources in this pathway. These sources include the Chinese nuclear test in 1980 and the accident at the Chemobyl Nuclear Power Plant in 1986. The GGNS REMP detected radioactivity released from the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant following the March 11, 2011, Tohoku earthquake. No radioiodine was detected in 2016.
Table 3.1, which also includes gross beta activity, provides a comparison of the indicator and control means and ranges, further emphasizing that the airborne pathway remains at background levels. In the absence of plant-related gamma radionuclides, gross beta activity is attributed to naturally occurring radionuclides. Similar trends are present for control and indicator locations, which support the presence of naturally occurring radioactivity.
2.2 Thermoluminescent Dosimetry Sample Results GGNS calculates dose by subtracting shield readings from control and indicator location readings and reports measured dose as net exposure, normalized to 92 days.
GGNS relies on the comparison of the indicator locations to the control location as an indication of plant impact. Gamma radiation dose in the reporting period is compared to control location readings for previous years as shown in Figure 2~ 1.
The comparison of the indicator results to the control, and to previous indicator results, as seen in Figure 2-1 and Table 3.1, indicates that plant operation has had no significant impact on ambient radiation levels during the reporting period.
In previous years, TLD locations M-21 (Sector J, 0.4 miles), M-98 (Sector H, 0.5 miles),
and M-99 (Sector K, 0.4 miles) were above background. The dose rates at these three locations were the result of Nitrogen-16 (N-16) associated with the injection of hydrogen and subsequent N-16 production. Hydrogen injection into the feedwater system provides protection against Intergranular Stress Corrosion of plant components.
Since November 2010, the hydrogen injection rate has been reduced and the dose rates at TLD locations M-21, M-98, and M-99 have returned to near background levels.

2.3 Water Sample Results Surface water samples were collected from three indicator locations (Outfall 007, MRDOWN, and MRDOWN During Discharge) and one control location (MRUP) and analyzed for gamma emitting radionuclides and tritium. Plant related gamma emitting radionuclides and tritium remained undetectable in the upstream and downstream Mississippi River locations, which is consistent with preoperational and previous operational years. Storm waters contribute to Outfall 007 and can include tritium as a result of washout and entrainment of normal, previously monitored gaseous effluents.
As a result, tritium is occasionally observed. Tritium was measured during January (2100 +/- 537 pCi/L) and August (698 +/- 195 pCi/L) at the Outfall 007 (indicator) location.
Tritium was not observed in the remaining Outfall 007 samples collected during 2016.
In addition to the tritium samples required by the REMP, four special surface water samples for gamma emitting radionuclides were collected at the Outfall 007 location (Table A 8.1). Plant related gamma emitting radionuclides remained undetectable in these samples.
Based on review of results and historical data, plant operations had no significant impact on this pathway during the reporting period.
Groundwater samples were collected from two locations (indicator and control) and analyzed for gamma emitting radionuclides and tritium (Tables A 4.1 and A 4.2). In addition to the samples required by the REMP, an extra sample from the locations was analyzed for lodine-131 (Table A 4.3). GGNS did not detect any plant related gamma emitting radionuclides or tritium in groundwater samples during the reporting period.

Based on review of results and historical data, plant operations had no significant impact on this pathway during the reporting period.
2.4 Sediment Sample Results Sediment samples were collected from two locations (indicator and control) and analyzed for gamma emitting radionuclides. GGNS did not detect any plant related gamma emitting radionuclides in sediment samples during the reporting period.
Based on review of results and historical data, plant operations had no significant impact on this pathway during the reporting period.
2.5 Milk Sample ResuIts Milk samples were not collected within five miles of the site in the reporting period due to the absence of milking animals. Since there are no dairies within five miles of GGNS, and based on non-detectable radioiodine and gamma radionuclides in air and vegetation samples, plant operations had no impact on this pathway during the reporting period.
2.6 Fish Sample Results Fish samples were collected from two locations (indicator and control) and analyzed for gamma emitting radionuclides. GGNS did not detect any plant related gamma emitting radionuclides in fish samples (edible portions) during the reporting period, as has been the case in preoperational and previous operational years. These results indicate that this pathway has not been affected by plant operations.
2.7 Food Product (Vegetation) Sample Results Food product samples were collected from two locations (indicator and control) and analyzed for lodine-131 and gamma emitting radionuclides. GGNS did not detect any plant related lodine-131 or gamma emitting radionuclides in vegetation samples during the reporting period. These results indicate that this pathway has not been affected by plant operations. .
2.8 Land Use Census Results Results from the most recent Land Use Census performed in 2016 are included in this report. Methods utilized to perform the Land Use Census include: visual surveys, door to door surveys, telephone interviews, Global Positioning System (GPS), Aerial Photography, and consultation with the local county agent concerning dairy production in Claiborne County.
During the survey the following information was obtained:
- 1) nearest location of occupied and unoccupied residences
- 2) nearest location of dairy production
- 3) nearest location of gardens 25
.. :&Hft4&*Aitg¥
Changes from the previous Land Use Census were evaluated in accordance with GGNS surveillance "Land Use Census", 06-EN-5000-0-0002. The differences were compared to the locations and assumptions used in calculations for compliance with the ODCM Limiting Condition for Operation 6.11.6 and 6.12.2. The locations and assumptions currently used in the ODCM were determined to be more conservative than any of the changes. Determinations from the most recent Land Use Census results are:
- Because of downwind location and/or distance from the site, in no case will the occupancy of an existing unoccupied residence cause any existing ODCM critical receptor calculation results to be less conservative.
- No additional sampling locations are required as the onsite vegetation sampling location (Sector J, 0.4 miles) is more conservative than changes identified in the land use census.
- Cattle are raised for human consumption (most notably in Sectors F, H, J, and K). GGNS uses the Grass/Cow/Meat pathway.
- The milk pathway does not need to be activated because no commercial dairy production is occurring within 5 miles, as referenced by ODCM Table 6.12.1-1.
- Sectors M, N, P, and Q are remote areas in which the primary use is hunting.
Areas were surveyed by vehicle, aerial photographs, and interviews.
- Gardens, regardless of size, were included in the census data 26

- New monitoring location AS-20 was activated on 06/14/16 with only two weeks left in the quarterly monitoring period. Due to the activation date, only two weekly samples were included in the quarterly composite analysis (06/21/16) for AS-20, as compared to 13 samples for each of the remaining (05/13/16) monitoring locations. The difference in activity between the (06/21/16) AS-20 sample and the remaining locations is attributed to the non-comparable sample volumes and sampling intervals. Weekly gross beta and 1-131 activity, as well as the remaining 2016 quarterly composite gamma analyses were comparable for all monitoring locations.

EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
Routine quality control (QC) testing was performed for dosimeters issued by the Environmental Dosimetry Company (EDC) .
During this annual period, 1000/0 (72172) of the individual dosimeters, evaluated against the EDC internal performance acceptance criteria (high-energy photons only), met the criterion for accuracyand 1000/0 (72/72) met the criterion for precision (Table 1). In addition, 100% (12/12) of the dosimetersets evaluated against the internal tolerance limits met EDC acceptance criteria (Table 2) and 100% (6/6) of independent testing passed the performance criteria (Table 3). Trending graphs, which evaluate performance statistic for high-energy photon irradiations and co-located stations are given in Appendix A.
One internal assessmentwas performed in 2016. There were no findings.

I. INTRODUCTION The TLD systems at the Environmental Dosimetry Company (EDC) are calibrated and operated to ensure consistent and accurate evaluation of TLDs. The quality of the dosimetric results reported to EDC clients is ensured by in-house performance testing and independent performance testing by EDC clients, and both internal and client directed program assessments.
The purpose of the dosimetry quality assurance program is to provide performance documentation of the routine processing of EDC dosimeters. Performance testing provides a statistical measure of the bias and precision of dosimetry processing against a reliable standard, which in turn points out any trends or performance changes. Two programs are used:
A. QC Program Dosimetry quality control tests are performed on EDC Panasonic 814 Environmental dosimeters. These tests include: (1) the in-house testing program coordinated by the EDC QA Officer and (2) independent test perform by EDC clients. In-house test are performed using six pairs of 814 dosimeters, a pair is reported as an individual result and six pairs are reported as the mean result.
Results of these tests are described in this report.
Excluded from this report are instrumentation checks. Although instrumentation checks represent an important aspect of the quality assurance program , they are not included as process checks in this report. Instrumentation checks represent between 5-10% of the TLDs processed.
B. QA Program An internal assessment of dosimetry activities is conducted annually by the Quality Assurance Officer (Reference 1). The purpose of the assessment is to review procedures, results, materials or components to identify opportunities to improve or enhance processes and/or services.
II. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION CRITERIA A. Acceptance Criteria for Internal Evaluations
- 1. Bias For each dosimeter tested, the measure of bias is the percent deviation of the reported result relative to the delivered exposure. The percent deviation relative to the delivered exposure is calculated as follows:
where:
H; = the corresponding reported exposure for the jlh dosimeter (Le., the reported exposure)
HI = the exposure delivered to the ith irradiated dosimeter (i.e., the delivered exposure) 1 of 6
- 2. Mean Bias For each group of test dosimeters, the mean bias is the average percent deviation of the reported result relative to the delivered exposure. The mean percent deviation relative to the delivered exposure is calculated as follows:
where:
H; = the corresponding reported exposure for the ith dosimeter (Le., the reported exposure)
Hi = the exposure delivered to the i1h irradiated test dosimeter (Le., the delivered exposure) n = the numberof dosimeters in the test group
- 3. Precision For a group of test dosimeters irradiated to a given exposure, the measure of precision is the percent deviation of individual results relative to the mean reported exposure. At least two values are required for the determination of precision. The measure of precision for the ith dosimeter is:
where:
H; = the reported exposurefor the ith dosimeter(Le., the reported exposure)
R = the mean reported exposure; i.e., R=L H:( *J n = the number of dosimeters in the test group
- 4. EDC Internal Tolerance Limits All evaluation criteria are taken from the "EDC QualitySystem Manual,"
(Reference 2). These criteria are only applied to individual test dosimeters irradiated with high-energy photons (Cs-137) and are as follows for Panasonic Environmental dosimeters: +/- 15%for bias and +/-
12.8% for precision.
2 of 6
B. aClnvestigation Criteria and Result Reporting EDC Quality System Manual (Reference 2) specifies when an investigation is required due to a QC analysis that has failed the EDC bias criteria. The criteria are as follows:
- 1. No investigation is necessary when an individual QC result falls outside the QC performance criteria for accuracy.
- 2. Investigations are initiated when the meanof a QC processing batch is outside the performance criterion for bias.
C. Reporting of Environmental Dosimetry Results to EDC Customers
- 1. All results are to be reported in a timely fashion.
- 2. If the QA Officer determines that an investigation is required for a process, the results shall be issued as normal. If the QC results, prompting the investigation, have a mean bias from the known of greater than +/-20%, the results shall be issued with a note indicating that they may be updated in the future, pending resolution of a QA issue.
- 3. Environmental dosimetry results do not require updating if the investigation has shown that the mean bias between the original results and the corrected results, based on applicable correction factors from the investigation, does not exceed +/-20%.
III. DATA
SUMMARY
FOR ISSUANCE PERIOD JANUARY-DECEMBER 2016 A. General Discussion Results of performance tests conducted are summarized and discussed in the following sections. Summaries of the performance.tests for the reporting period are given in Tables 1 through 3 and Figures 1 through 4.
Table 1 provides a summary of individual dosimeter results evaluated against the EDC internal acceptance criteria for high-energy photons only. During this period, 100% (72/72) of the individual dosimeters, evaluated against these criteria met the tolerance limits for accuracy and 100% (72/72) met the criterion for precision.
A graphical interpretation is provided in Figures 1 and 2.
Table 2 provides the Bias + Standard deviation results for each group (N=6) of dosimeters evaluated against the internal tolerance criteria. Overall,100%
(12/12) of the dosimeter sets evaluated against the internal tolerance performance criteria met these criteria. A graphical interpretation is provided in Figure 3.
Table 3 presents the independent blind spike results for dosimeters processed during this annual period. All results passed the performance acceptance criterion. Figure 4 is a graphical interpretation of Seabrook Station blind 00-located station results.

Table A.9.2 Sample Type: Quality Assurance Report Matrix: Milk, Soil, Liquid, Vegetation, Air Charcoal, Air Particulate, Water TELEDYNE BROWN ENGINEERING
For the TBE laboratory, 156 out of 160 analyses performed met the specified acceptance criteria. Four analyses (Milk - Sr-90, Vegetation - Sr-90, and Water-H-3 samples) did not meet the specified acceptance criteria for the following reasons and were addressed through the TBE Corrective Action Program.
Note: The Department of Energy (DOE) Mixed Analyte Performance Evaluation Program (MAPEP) samples are created to mimic conditions found at DOE sites which do not resemble typical environmental samples obtained at commercial nuclear power facilities.
- 1. Teledyne Brown Engineering's MAPEP March 2016 air particulate cross check sample is now being provided to TBE by Analytics. MAPEP's policy is to evaluate as failed non-reported nuclides that were reported in the previous study. NCR 16-14 1a. Since the Sr-90 was reported in the previous MAPEP study but not in this study MAPEP evaluated the Sr-90 for Soil as failed. NCR 16-14 lb. The MAPEP March 2016 Sr-90 in vegetation was evaluated as failing a false positive test. In reviewing the data that was reported vs the data in LIMS, it was found that the error was incorrectly reported as 0.023 rather than the correct value of 0.230. If the value had been reported with the activity and correct uncertainty of 0.301 +/- 0.230, MAPEP would have evaluated the result as acceptable. NCR 16-14
- 2. Teledyne Brown Engineering's Analytics' March 2016 milk Sr-90 result of 15 +/- . 125 pCiIL was higher than the known value of 11.4 pCiIL with a ratio of 1.32. The upper ratio of 1.30 (acceptable with warning) was exceeded. After an extensive review of the data it is believed the technician did not rinse the filtering apparatus properly and some cross contamination from one of the internal laboratory spike samples may have been transferred to the analytics sample. We feel the issue is specific to the March 2016 Analytics sample. NCR 16-26
- 3. Teledyne Brown Engineering's ERA November 2016 sample for H-3 in water was evaluated as failing. A result of 918 pCiIL was reported incorrectly due to a data entry issue. If the correct value of 9180 had been reported, ERA would have evaluated the result as acceptable. NCR 16-34
~._>> .. :s . ... ~ F
- 4. Teledyne Brown Engineering's Analytics' December 2016 milk Sr-90 sample result of 14.7 +/- .26 pCi/L was higher than the known value of 10 pCiIL with a ratio of 1.47. The upper ratio of 1.30 (acceptable with warning) was exceeded. The technician entered the wrong aliquot into the LIMS system. To achieve a lower error term TBE uses a larger aliquot of 1.2L (Normally we use. 6L for client samples). If the technician had entered an aliquot of 1.2L into the LIMS system, the result would have been 12.2 pCiIL, which would have been considered acceptable. NCR 16-35
