1.0 Introduction This report has been prepared in compliance with Parts 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), specifically 10 CFR 50.36a(a)(2) and Columbia Generating Station (CGS) Technical Specification 5.6.2. It includes a summary of the quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents and solid radwaste released from CGS during calendar year 2014. Effluent data is summarized on a quarterly basis.

Throughout this report, units of activity and dose are as defined in 10 CFR 20.1004, 20.1005, and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Regulatory Guide 1.109-1977.

The United States National Council on Radiation Protection published Report #160 in 2009 which can serve to put radiation dose into perspective for the reader of this report. It was determined that the average yearly dose to a person living in the United States is 620 mrem from all sources. Of this, ~50% is attributed to natural sources (radiation from gaseous radon, cosmic or space radiation, natural radioactive material in the ground, and natural radioactive materials in our bodies).

About 48% is attributed to diagnostic and therapeutic medical exposure. Radiation dose from nuclear power was grouped into a category comprising <0.1% of the total.

2.0 Liquid Effluents No planned releases of contaminated liquids from the liquid radwaste processing system were discharged to the Columbia River from CGS during calendar year 2014. The last discharge to the river from liquid processing took place in 1998.

According to ground water monitoring in 2014, there were no known leaks to the environment of radioactive liquids.

3.0 Gaseous Effluents Routine Releases Gaseous effluents from CGS are released from three (3) principal release points:

Main Plant Vent -- mixed mode release Turbine Building - mixed mode release Radwaste Building -- ground level release The gaseous source terms from each release point are listed in Tables 3-1, 3-2, and 3-3. The activation gas argon-41 is included in these tables under fission gases to allow a match with the fission and activation gas totals of Table 3-4. Table 3-4 provides a summation of the total activity released, the average release rate, gross alpha radioactivity, and the estimated total error associated with the measurements of radioactivity in the gaseous effluents.

Columbia Generating Station 1 2014 Radioactive Effluent Report

Radioactivity measurements for gaseous effluent releases are performed for fission and activation gases by collecting the samples in a Marinelli beaker and analyzing them using gamma spectroscopy. Air is analyzed for tritium by collection of water vapor on a desiccant with subsequent distillation and liquid scintillation counting.

Particulates and iodines are sampled continuously and the sample media (particulate filters and charcoal cartridges) are analyzed weekly using gamma spectroscopy. Each quarter a chemical separation process is used to isolate strontium from the composite particulate filters and quantification is accomplished with liquid scintillation detection. The average energy per disintegration of fission and activation gases is not included in this report as it is not required by Technical Specifications and is not used for gaseous effluent release rate limit calculations.

When a radionuclide is not positively identified at levels greater than the Minimum Detectable Activity (MDA) or Minimum Detectable Concentration (MDC), a value of zero is used for release concentrations and offsite dose assessments. The MDA is an a posteriori value that is determined during analysis of a sample. Table 3-6 contains the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD - which is an a priori value determined before a sample is analyzed) values corresponding to the sampling methods and analytical instruments used for each principal radionuclide, except carbon-14 (C-14 or 14C) as C-14 releases are calculated using an Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) methodology that is discussed in more detail later in this chapter.

Dose calculations were performed for releases using the NRC XOQDOQ and NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109 methodology (manually or with the GASPAR II computer program) and parameter values as described in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). This methodology was based on Publication 2 of the International Commission on Radiation Protection released in 1959.

Quarterly and annual doses to the potentially highest-exposed Member of the Public (MOP) at and beyond the site boundary were calculated. In addition, quarterly and annual doses were calculated at actual resident locations identified in the annual land use census. ODCM limits are based on 10 CFR 20 and Appendix I to 10 CFR

50. The threshold for air dose applies to fission and activation gases and is ten (10) mrad for beta and five (5) mrad for gamma quarterly and twenty (20) mrad for beta and ten (10) mrad for gamma annually. The threshold for organ dose applies to iodine, tritium, and particulates with half-lives greater than eight days and is seven and a half (7.5) mrem quarterly and fifteen (15) mrem annually. For fission and activation gases the dose rate limits are less than or equal to 500 mrem per year to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem per year to the skin. For iodines, particulates, and tritium the dose rate limit is less than or equal to 1500 mrem/year to any organ.

Dose calculations were also conducted for Members of the Public within the site boundary. The results are discussed and tabulated in Section 6.0.

Heating Steam Vents and Reliefs Building heat during the winter months is provided by either Seal Steam Evaporator B or by the Auxiliary Boiler. Vents and reliefs of this system to the atmosphere are Columbia Generating Station 2 2014 Radioactive Effluent Report

unmonitored for licensed materials but the water used for steam is sampled routinely while in use. The Auxiliary Boiler was not used during the 2014 heating season. At the start of the heating season, analysis of water in Seal Steam Evaporator B indicated 1.86E-10 curies/ml (Ci/ml) of tritium and this activity decreased during the season due to dilution with non-tritiated makeup water.

Assuming the entire initial inventory (1.14E+07 ml) was released, the total release would be 2.12E-03 curies of tritium through unmonitored vents of the heating steam system within and outside the main power block (Turbine, Radwaste, Reactor, and General Services buildings). These vents are unmonitored as this is an insignificant release point as defined in Revision 2 of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.21 because the activity comprises less than 1% of the total tritium released during 2014.

Cooling System Sediment Disposal Cell - Diffuse Source Cooling Tower and Spray Pond sediment are periodically sampled and disposed of on the surface of the ground in a fenced area within the site boundary authorized by the Washington State Energy Facility Site Evaluation Council. No materials are permitted to be placed in the Cooling System Sediment Disposal Cell (Disposal Cell) with licensed activity greater than the following limitations in Table 3a:

Table 3a - Source Term of Disposal Cell Limit Radionuclide (pCi/gm)

Co-60 5 Mn-54 30 Zn-65 50 Cs-134 10 Cs-137 20 The calculated dose to MOP based on the limits shown above, were calculated and reported in the 2013 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Report, and are being discussed here as a comparison to the doses resulting from routine releases in 2013. The calculated dose resulting from re-suspension of the sediment in the Disposal Cell accounted for less than 1% of the doses estimated from the routine releases in 2013. The results of sample data for sediment added to the Disposal Cell in 2014 showed contaminant concentrations below the limits shown in Table 3a. Therefore, potentially re-suspended activity will be less than that calculated in 2013, and a dose estimate for the Disposal Cell will not be included in this report as it is a less-significant release point.

Storm Drain Pond (SDP)- Diffuse Source Columbia Generating Station was designed with an evaporation basin (Storm Drain Pond) within the Owner Controlled Area and described in the CGS National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit as Outfall 2. The SDP receives storm water runoff, wastewater from potable and demineralized water production, intake air wash unit blowdown, and water from non-radioactive equipment dewatering, leakage, cleaning, and flushing activities. Since discovery Columbia Generating Station 3 2014 Radioactive Effluent Report

of residual licensed radioactive material in the soil of the SDP in 1993, the pond has been fenced and posted in accordance with 10 CFR 20 requirements.

In 2014, a new system of lined ponds (Evaporation Ponds) was constructed. On November 13, 2014, the water line to the SDP was re-routed to the Evaporation Ponds, so it is assumed that the input of residual licensed radioactive material to the SDP has ceased. The liquid composite sampler that was previously used with the SDP was also moved to the water line that is routed to Ponds 3 and 4 of the Evaporations Ponds. The sample results from Nov. 13th through December will be considered jointly with the liquid composite samples taken previously in the year for dose assessment purposes.

An evaluation of the off-site doses resulting from SDP re-suspended soil and/or migration through groundwater was previously calculated in the 2013 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Report. The estimated doses in 2013 accounted for less than 1% of the doses estimated from the routine releases defined above.

The activities in samples (with the exception of tritium) from the flow-proportional sampler in Outfall 002 were less than the MDA in 2014. The tritium activity detected in Outfall 002 is shown in Table 3b, and is less than 1% of the Tritium activity released from the routine releases defined above.

In December of 2014, environmental samples of soil in the SDP were sampled, and the maximum concentrations of radionuclides are shown in Table 3b. The concentrations shown in Table 3b are less than the concentrations observed during the 2013 calendar year. Therefore, dose estimates for the SDP will not be included in this report as it is a less-significant release point.

H-3 5.39E-02 Abnormal Releases There was one abnormal release documented in 2014. A door at the base of the reactor building release duct was opened to allow maintenance crews to install a Columbia Generating Station 4 2014 Radioactive Effluent Report

new sample line that will be used with a new reactor building effluent monitor. The work started in November of 2014, and continued through April of 2015.

A similar condition was encountered and documented in the 2013 Annual Effluent Report The reactor building Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) System and the Offgas Post Treatment System both discharge into the middle of this vertically-oriented release duct. Normally, the path of least resistance is out the top of the duct. Based on past experience (documented in the 2013 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Report), approximately 11.4% of the exhaust air that would have gone out the designed (upper) exit of the stack was exiting horizontally out of the base of this vertical release duct.

This was considered a monitored release because a representative sample of the air in the exhaust duct during this time was being taken by a 32-nozzle sample array. To demonstrate compliance with routine ODCM Requirements for Operability (release limitations), the exhaust flow rate measured by the flow elements in the upper portion of the vertical release duct was adjusted to reflect the actual release flow rate (corrected for loss at the door). As such, the activity released through the open door was accounted for by the Main Plant Vent Release Point.

Carbon-14 14 C, with a half-life of 5,730 years, is a naturally occurring isotope of carbon produced by cosmic ray interactions in the atmosphere. When 14C decays it emits a beta particle of varying energies up to 0.156 MeV with an average energy of 0.049 MeV. As a result of this low energy, the air and inhalation doses are insignificant.

Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount of 14C in the atmosphere. 14C is also produced in commercial nuclear reactors, but the amounts produced are much less than those produced naturally or from weapons testing.

Although 10 CFR 50.36a has always required reporting the principal nuclides released, 14C had been exempted because of the large quantity that existed naturally in the environment. However, following release of Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 1.21 (Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste), the NRC recommended that U.S. nuclear power plants evaluate whether 14C is a "principal radionuclide", and if so, report the amount of 14C released.

A radionuclide is considered a principal radionuclide if it contributes either (1) greater than 1 percent of the 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I, design objective dose, or (2) greater than 1 percent of the activity of all radionuclides in the type of effluent being considered. This implementation of primary radionuclides ensures both (1) radionuclides that are present in relatively large amounts but that contribute very little to dose, and (2) radionuclides that are present in very small amounts but that have a relatively high contribution to dose are appropriately included in the annual effluent report.

Columbia Generating Station 5 2014 Radioactive Effluent Report

At CGS, improvements over the years in effluent management practices and fuel performance have resulted in a significant decrease in radioactive gaseous emissions. As a result, 14C has become a "principal radionuclide" for the gaseous effluent pathway at CGS. CGSs 2014 Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report (ARERR) contains estimates of 14C radioactivity released in 2014, and estimates of public dose resulting from the 14C effluent.

Since there were no liquid tank releases to the river, there is no dose reported from liquid releases in this report. The quantity of gaseous 14C released to the environment is estimated by use of a 14C source term scaling factor based on power generation. EPRI Technical Report 1021106 estimates the production of 14C at approximately 5 Ci/GWth - yr for a plant like CGS. This would result in a calculated release of 17.8 Ci/yr based on the rated power for CGS. The EPRI report also describes the chemical form of the 14C released as being 95% Carbon Dioxide, which could be incorporated into growing plant during photosynthesis.

Based on 95% Carbon Dioxide, and assuming that all 14C generated is released in gaseous effluent, then the total 14C emission shown in Table 3d is 16.9 Ci.

Public dose estimates from airborne 14C are included with the other radionuclides and are shown in Section 6 of this report.

Table 3d - Carbon-14 Production The 14C production rate was estimated using the methodology in EPRI Technical Report 1021106 which also estimated that 95% of 14C production is released as 14 CO2 and the remainder assumed to be 14CH4.

Out-of-Service Effluent Monitors The effluent monitors for the Turbine and Radwaste Buildings were not returned to a functional status within the 30-day restoration time because both effluent monitors were being replaced with new Sample Racks (Engineering Change 4788 and 4789).

The Turbine Building effluent monitor was non-functional from 01/27/2014 to 05/31/2014, and the Radwaste Building effluent monitor was non-functional from 01/27/2014 to 06/06/2014. During the period of the installation project, Columbia Generating Station 6 2014 Radioactive Effluent Report

compensatory measure were in place and functioning to continuously collect particulate and iodine samples, measure the sample line flow rate, and collect necessary grab samples. The normal equipment used to measure the building exhaust air flow rate was not affected by the effluent monitor replacement.

The standby service water monitor on the A loop and the Liquid Radwaste monitor were declared out of service between 3/12/2014 and 6/4/2014 because of work being performed on a battery back-up power supply (Condition Report-306476).

The monitors were functioning the entire time because the main power source remained operational, but the language in the Licensee Controlled Specification (LCS) required that the technical specification components supported by the battery back-up be taken out of service. A subsequent Condition Report (CR) was written (CR-318861), and the language in the LCS is being revised to clarify that non-TS components can remain functional.

The sample pump used to sample the Reactor Building Exhaust air was out of service from 11/14/2014 to 12/20/2014. Compensatory Measures were in place during this period. The pump was initially taken out of service to change the oil, but automatically tripped shortly after restoration (CR-317820 was written).

Subsequently, a fuse was replaced, but this did not resolve the issue. So, the blower was replaced and the flow settings were re-evaluated.

  • Calculated quarterly doses cannot be directly compared to the annual doses. Each above listed quarterly dose is the highest calculated dose based on a number of variables. Variables that make comparison difficult include location, seasonal changes in meteorological data (quarterly joint frequency distribution (JFD) tables vs. annual JFD tables), receptor age, target organ, and characteristics of the emitted radionuclides.

This table shows the highest air dose or organ dose for either a hypothetical resident at the site boundary or an actual resident within a 5-mile radius.

The pathways of exposure considered at the site boundary are the plume exposure, ground exposure, and inhalation pathways only. The potentially highest-exposed MOP from all gaseous effluent releases (including C-14), for the full year of 2014, for residents identified in the 2014 CGS Land Use Census, and for all pathways of exposure identified, was for a resident (child) at 4.79 miles ESE. The highest organ dose for the plume exposure, ground exposure, garden produce ingestion, and inhalation pathways was 1.78E-1 mrem which is 1.19% of the 15 mrem 10 CFR 50 Appendix I guideline.

  • Measurement errors are sample-specific. The values reported represent an approximate overall error. Some of the contributors of this error are measurements associated with estimating the sample volume, the exhaust duct flow rates, plateout factors, charcoal cartridge efficiencies, temperatures of sample lines, buildings, and ambient air, barometric pressure, sample line vacuum, run time estimates, anisokinetic correction factors where needed, and gravimetric, gamma spectroscopy, and liquid scintillation analysis errors.

ODCM release rate limits are based on dose rate, and the percent of ODCM limit shown in Table 3-4 is for the following limits. For fission and activation gases the dose rate limits are less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin. For I-131, particulates, and tritium the dose rate limit is less than or equal to 1500 mrem/year to any organ.

5.0 Meteorological Data The meteorological data contained in Tables 5-1 through 5-11 was obtained from a meteorological tower located 762 meters (2500 feet) west of Columbia Generating Station. Data was recovered from two sets of redundant instruments on the tower at the 10 meter (33-foot) and 75 meter (245- foot) levels. The meteorological data is a composite file generated from the automated data recovery systems for the calendar year 2014. Data is archived on the Energy Northwest Local Area Network.

Meteorological data recovery for 2014 was 97.9% from the 33-foot level and 98.0%

from the 245-foot level. Redundant wind and temperature sensors are installed at both levels of the meteorological tower. Data from the two systems can be combined to permit maximum data recovery for defined date ranges.

The data in Tables 5-1 through 5-8 provide joint frequency distributions (JFD) at the 10-meter and 75-meter levels by quarter for 2014. These tables show the total hours at various wind speeds for each sector and stability class. The NRC stability classes A through G and eleven wind speed categories along with the 16 wind direction sectors were used to prepare each joint frequency table. Tables 5-9 and 5-10 provide the annual joint frequency distributions at the specified heights for 2014.

Table 5-11 provides a joint frequency distribution from the 10 meter wind instruments during daylight hours of the growing season. The threshold value for daylight was chosen at solar irradiance of greater than 5 watts/m2. This JFD table was used for Carbon-14 (14C) dose estimates from ingestion pathways.

Wind speed is measured in miles per hour in the tables and speeds below 1.0 MPH were recorded as calms.

There are a number of atmospheric factors which affect dispersivity but which are not modeled in the CGS estimates of dispersion and deposition. Those conditions which were measured or documented at the Hanford Meteorological Station during 2014 were snow (13.9 inches), total precipitation (6.43 inches), freezing rain (17 days), dust or blowing dust (3 days), fog (33 days), thunderstorms (8 days), and hail (1 day).

6.0 DOSE ASSESSMENT -- IMPACT ON MAN Liquid Effluents - There were no liquid discharges from the radwaste processing system to the Columbia River during calendar year 2014. As such, the liquid dose reporting tables (Tables 6-1 through 6-4) described in the implementing procedure have been excluded from this report.

Gaseous Effluents - The NRC GASPAR II computer code was used to calculate doses at and beyond the site boundary using quarterly and annual meteorological data and site-specific variables as required and defined in the ODCM. Table 6-5 shows the highest calculated doses at the site boundary and beyond the site boundary (the potentially highest exposed MOP identified in the 2014 CGS land use census). Table 6-6 provides the population collective dose within a 50-mile radius.

These values were obtained from the As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) annual integrated population dose summary (in person-rem) of the GASPAR computer code output file. Table 6-6 also provides the annual average individual doses associated with each pathway. These values were obtained by dividing the ALARA integrated dose (person-rem) by the 2010 US Census 50-mile population (448,383) and converting to mrem.

During the growing season, Columbia Generating Station conducts a five-mile land use census to determine the locations of nearest residents, gardens, and milk animals or other livestock out to five miles in each sector. The 2014 Land Use Census identified one broad leaf vegetable garden but no milk animals within the 5-mile radius. Cattle and horses were observed within 5-miles. As substantial commercial fruit orchards and corn crops were observed in all eastern sectors with residents, it was assumed that these crops were being consumed by the residents.

The GASPAR code consumption rates were revised to reflect these differences.

Dose to Onsite Members of the Public The term Member of the Public includes all persons who are not occupationally associated with the plant. This category does not include employees of the utility, its contractors or vendors. Also excluded from this category are persons who enter the site to service equipment or to make deliveries. This category does include persons who use portions of the site for recreational, occupational or other purposes not associated with the plant.

Dose was evaluated to Members of the Public within the owner controlled area as well as beyond the site boundary. For those within the site boundary, the estimates included visitors to either the plant or the firing range as well as those that worked at the Industrial Development area in the E and ESE sectors and at the DOE 618-11 burial site in the W and WNW sectors. The maximum dose from gaseous effluents to these individuals was estimated assuming exposure to the plume, inhalation, and ground deposition pathways.

The following table (6.0) shows estimated dose to Members of the Public from gaseous effluents and direct radiation exposure within the site boundary of Columbia Generating Station for the total indicated hours spent at each location.

The highest dose to the thyroid was 3.74E-02 mrem. The highest dose to the total body was 3.67E-02 mrem. The highest dose to the skin was 3.73E-02 mrem. All of these doses were for the child age group.

For environmental thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) stations at or beyond the site boundary where preoperational (background) data was acquired, no increase in the average ambient exposure was observed in 2014 from the preoperational values.

The information contained in Table 6-5 is consistent with previous effluent release reports from Columbia Generating Station. C-14 does not contribute to air dose; inhalation dose from C-14 is so small that it is not calculated by the NRC GASPAR computer code. There are no ingestion pathways for a hypothetical MOP at the site boundary. Quarterly and annual dose estimates in this table are made with joint frequency distribution and dispersion and deposition values derived from meteorological data specific to each time period.

The six sub-tables in Table 6-5 show maximum estimated exposure and dose at and beyond the site boundary. No residents were observed at the site boundary.

The maximum exposure and dose beyond the site boundary is estimated for locations with actual residents.

  • Rather than the sum of the quarters, the annual cumulative dose values are based on annual meteorological data and total annual effluents. For each time period, the dose estimate uses the radionuclide mix and release rate for that period along with an estimate of the dispersion in air and deposition on ground and vegetation calculated by the NRC computer code XOQDOQ using actual meteorological conditions during the respective quarters. The dose estimate of the NRC computer code GASPAR uses, as base methodology, NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109 (1977) which includes the prospective dose component arising from retention in the body beyond the period of environmental exposure.

7.0 REVISIONS TO THE ODCM The following tables summarize the changes made to the ODCM during 2014. The ODCM is included as an enclosure to the letter transmitting this "Radioactive Effluent Release Report in compliance with Columbia Technical Specification 5.5.1.

LDCN-ODCM-14-014 (Action Request 305170); Amendment 52 Changed the text size so The text in the table of the Table 3-11, page 3 of 4 that the exponents of the two affected pages was Table 3-12, page 1 of 4 dispersion and deposition larger than normal, so the values would be seen exponents were truncated.

Tables 3-11, page 3 of 4, and 3-12, page 1 of 4, were corrected because the exponents of the dispersion and deposition values had been truncated while processing the changes.

8.0 REVISIONS TO THE PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP)

The PCP is maintained as a Plant Operations Committee approved procedure, SWP-RMP-02. The procedure revisions in 2014 are shown below;

  • Revised the procedure reference to the Operational Quality Assurance Program Description to indicate the correct section.
  • Added a reference in the procedure for the Design Guidance for Radwaste Management Systems procedure.
  • Clarified that high integrity containers are used to provide waste form stability.
  • Changed the generic burial site license to clearly indicate the US Ecology radioactive materials license WN-I019-2, issued by WDoH Radioactive Materials Section.
  • Revised the step on sorting to clearly state that a vendor providing support for dry active waste sorting must have a radioactive materials license.
  • Provided information that states where the transportation requirements reside and deleted the remainder of the section, as it is outside the scope of process controls.
  • Removed duplicate transportation and Radwaste requirements from the process control program. These items are covered in the Radwaste Management Program procedure and associated implementing procedures.
  • Added a note to the trending section, which provides an explanation regarding the relationships of the radionuclide ratios and potential effects to 10 CFR 61 analyses and associated scaling factors.
  • Revised the training section to indicate that training requirements are tracked in the Personnel Qualification Directory to assure training and retraining requirement adherence.
  • Added to the procurement section relative to the minimum number of resin processing and disposal containers needed to support plant operations.
  • Corrected some references to provide correct titles.

Columbia Generating Station 52 2014 Radioactive Effluent Report

9.0 NEW OR DELETED LOCATIONS FOR DOSE ASSESSMENTS AND/OR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING LOCATIONS 9.1 One new garden was identified in the 2014 Five-Mile Land Use Census (LUC) in the NE sector, 4.63 miles from the plant. Broad leaf vegetation was observed in the new garden. Dose calculations include broad leaf vegetation consumption for the NE sector, and because of the fruit, corn, and other crops being commercially grown in the area, the garden produce pathway (with no broad leaf vegetation consumption) is assumed for all other residents.

In December of 2013, the ODCM was revised to re-characterize the Turbine Building Effluent Release Point to reflect the actual configuration of the exhaust fans. This increased the dispersion and deposition values from the Turbine building significantly, but created a situation were the Members of the Public living on the bluff are closer to the center line of the plume than those living down by the river. To account for this, dose calculations are now performed for a location that is 4.79 miles from the plant in the ESE sector.

There is already an air sampler near the residence at 4.79 in the ESE sector. Milk samples are routinely collected at 7.33 miles ESE even though the dairy cattle are not grazed on open pasture.

9.3 The location previously listed at 4.50 Miles in the NE sector was replaced with the resident that has a garden at 4.63 miles in the same sector for dose calculation purposes. Dose calculations are no longer being performed for the dairy at 7.33 miles in the ESE sector, but milk samples continue to be collected.

10.0 MAJOR CHANGES TO RADIOACTIVE LIQUID, GASEOUS, AND SOLID WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS No major changes (as defined by ODCM Section 6.4.3) were made to the radioactive waste systems (liquid, gaseous, or solid) during this reporting period.

Columbia Generating Station 53 2014 Radioactive Effluent Report

11.0 Errata/Corrections to Previous ARERRs The ODCM was revised in December 2013. The revision included changes to the Turbine building release point that is described in Table 3-13. The changes were made to account for characteristics such as vent velocity and annual average heat flow. The increase in vent velocity and heat flow changed the dispersion and deposition values used when performing dose calculations such that the potentially highest-exposed MOP is not necessarily the nearest MOP in each sector.

It was first observed and documented that the changes to Table 3-13 could impact the potentially highest-exposed MOP on January 23, 2015 (Condition Report-321016). The following evaluation discovered that, given the meteorological conditions, the potentially highest-exposed MOP is not the nearest in the East Southeast sector, and that corrections would be needed for the 2013 ARERR (Condition Report-321365). The affected pages of the 2013 ARERR, in their entirety, are included as Attachment 1 to this 2014 ARERR.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) is required by Technical Specification Section 5.5.1. This Technical Specification section and the ODCM implement the requirements of 10 CFR 20, 10 CFR 50, and 40 CFR 190 that apply to radioactive effluents from the plant.

The ODCM contains the methodology and parameters used in the calculation of offsite radionuclide concentrations and doses resulting from liquid and gaseous radioactive effluents.

In most cases, these doses must be calculated, as the amount of dose received outside the plant is too low to be measurable. The ODCM also describes the methodology used to establish gaseous and liquid effluent monitoring alarm and trip setpoints.

The ODCM also contains the Radiological Effluent and Environmental Monitoring Controls. The Radiological Effluent Controls Program implements the requirements of Technical Specification Section 5.5.4. The Radiological Effluent Controls were previously known as the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (RETS). The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Controls are part of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP). The REMP controls supplement the effluent controls by verifying that measurable concentrations of radioactive materials in the environment are not greater than predicted by the effluent controls. At Columbia Generating Station, the Radiological Effluent and Environmental Monitoring Controls are contained in the ODCM Appendix. They are written in the same format as the Licensee Controlled Specifications (LCS). This common format allows for ease of use by the plant staff.

The Solid Radioactive Waste or Process Control Program (PCP) is not part of the ODCM, except for Radioactive Effluent Release Report Requirements provided in the ODCM Appendix Section 6.4. FSAR Section 11.4.3 describes the requirements for the PCP. This includes the objective program requirements, process control systems, and waste characterization. Plant Procedures implement the PCP.

The ODCM reflects the requirements of both 10 CFR 20.1 through 20.602 (the old Part 20) and 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402 (the new Part 20). Technical Specification 5.5.4c requires monitoring, sampling, and analysis of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents pursuant to 10 CFR 20.1302. 10 CFR 20.1302 requires surveys of effluents in unrestricted areas for the purpose of demonstrating compliance with 10 CFR 20.1301. Section 1301 sets dose limits for members of the public. These limits are stated in terms of Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE). 10 CFR 20.1 through 20.602 (the original Part 20 requirements) as well as 10 CFR 50, Appendix I and 40 CFR 190 regulate dose in terms of dose to a critical organ. The NRC addressed this issue in a series of Questions and Answers on this topic in 1995. The Answers state that 10 CFR 50, Appendix I is not changed concurrently with the new Part 20. Therefore, until Appendix I is changed licensees must continue to show compliance to the new Part 20 based on Appendix I, with dose calculations expressed in terms of organ and whole body doses. The computer codes LADTAP II and GASPAR II may be used to perform these calculations. For liquid effluents, however, the concentration limits are to be changed to reflect the new values in 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B. The corresponding bases and certain alarm set points for the liquid monitors are also to be changed. The methodology used in the ODCM to determine the necessary dilutions are required to be changed from the old Maximum Permissible Concentration (MPC) to the now required Effluent Concentration Limits (ECLs). The Columbia Generating Station ODCM has been changed to accommodate the above requirements resulting from the new 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402.

2.0 LIQUID EFFLUENT CALCULATIONS Liquid effluent calculations are discussed in this section of the ODCM. Calculations of liquid effluent concentrations are made to show compliance with the limits of 10 CFR 20. The methodology for calculating dilution factors and liquid effluent monitor setpoints are also discussed. This section outlines the methods used to calculate off-site radiation dose to show compliance to 10 CFR 50, Appendix I. This section also presents the calculations used to establish the maximum allowable liquid radioactive waste activity available in temporary hold-up tanks in accordance with Technical Specification 5.5.8.b.

2.1 Introduction Liquid radwaste released from Columbia Generating Station will meet control limits at a single point of discharge to the Columbia River. Actual discharges of liquid radwaste effluents will only occur on a batch basis, and the average concentration at the point of discharge will be only a small percentage of the allowed limits. A simplified block diagram of the liquid waste management system and effluent pathways is contained in Figure 2-1.

2.2 Radwaste Liquid Effluent Radiation Monitoring System This monitoring subsystem measures the radioactivity in the liquid effluent prior to its entering the cooling tower blowdown line.

All radwaste effluent passes through a four-inch line which has an off-line sodium iodide radiation monitor. The radwaste effluent flow, (variable from 0 to 190 gpm), combines with the 36-inch cooling water blowdown line, (variable from 0 to 7500 gpm) and is discharged to the Columbia River with a total flow based on the total Effluent Concentration Limit (ECL) fraction and cooling water flushing needs.

Additional information on this monitoring system can be found in FSAR Section 11.5.2.2.2.3.

2.3 10 CFR 20 Concentration Limits The requirements pertaining to discharge of radwaste liquid effluents to the unrestricted area are specified in Requirement for Operability 6.2.1.1. In order to comply with this requirement, limits will be set to ensure that blowdown line concentrations do not exceed ten times 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 at any time.

2 Amendment 50, May 2013

2.3.1 Pre-Release Calculation The activity of the radionuclide mixture to be discharged and the liquid effluent discharge rate will be determined prior to discharge in accordance with Energy Northwest procedures. The effluent concentration for each nuclide is determined by the following equation:

Ci x fw Conci = (1) ft where:

Conci = Concentration of radionuclide i in the effluent at point of discharge (µCi/ml).

Ci = Concentration of radionuclide i in the batch to be released (µCi/ml).

fw = Discharge flow rate from sample tank to the blowdown line (variable from 0 to 190 gpm).

fb = Blowdown flow rate (variable from 0 to 7500 gpm).

ft = Total discharge (ft = fb + fw) flow rate (variable from 0 to 7690 gpm).

The calculated concentration in the blowdown line must be less than ten times the concentrations listed in 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B. Before releasing the batch to the environment, the following equation must hold:

m ECLf Conci ECLi 1 (2) i 1 where:

ECLf = Total ECL Fraction Conci = Concentration of radionuclide i in the effluent at the point of discharge (µCi/ml).

ECLi = Ten times the effluent concentration of nuclide i listed in 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2.

m = Total number of radionuclides in the batch.

3 Amendment 50, May 2013

2.3.2 Post-Release Calculation The concentration of each radionuclide in the unrestricted area, following the batch release, will be calculated as follows:

The average activity of radionuclide i during the time period of the release is divided by the plant discharge flow/tank discharge flow ratio yielding the concentration at the point of discharge:

Cik x fw Concik (3) ft where:

Concik = The concentration of radionuclide i in the effluent at the point of discharge during the release period k (µCi/ml).

Cik = The concentration of radionuclide i in the batch during the release period k

(µCi/ml).

fw = Discharge flow rate from sample tank to the blowdown line (variable from 0 to 190 gpm).

fb = Blowdown flow rate (variable from 0 to 7500 gpm).

ft = Total discharge (ft = fb + fw) flow rate (variable from 0 to 7690 gpm).

To ensure compliance with 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2401, the following relationships must hold:

m Conc i 1 ik 1 ECL i (4) where the terms are as defined in Equation (2) and (3).

2.4 Radwaste Liquid Effluent Dilution Ratio and Alarm Setpoints Calculations 2.4.1 Introduction The dilution alarm ratio and setpoints of the sample liquid effluent monitor are established to ensure that the limits of ten times 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, are not exceeded in the effluent at the discharge point (i.e., compliance with RFO 6.2.1.1, as discussed in Section 2.3.1 of this manual).

The alarm (HI) and the alarm/trip (HI-HI) setpoints for the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Monitor are calculated from the results of the radiochemical analysis of the pre-release effluent sample. The setpoints are set into the radwaste monitor just prior to the release of each batch of radioactive liquid.

4 Amendment 50, May 2013

2.4.2 Methodology for Determining the Total Effluent Concentration Limit (ECL) Fraction Radwaste liquid effluents can only be discharged to the environment through the four-inch radwaste line. The maximum radwaste discharge flow rate is 190 gpm. Prior to discharge, the tank is isolated and recirculated for at least thirty minutes, and a representative sample is taken from the tank. An isotopic analysis of the batch will be made to determine the sum of the ECL fraction (ECLf) based on ten times the 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402 limits. From the sample analysis and ten times the effluent concentration values in 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, the ECLf is determined using the following equation.

m Ci ECL f (5) i 1 ECL i where:

ECLf = Total ECL fraction in the liquid effluent waste sample.

Ci = The concentration of each measured radionuclide i observed by the radiochemical analysis of the liquid waste sample (Ci/ml).

ECLi = Ten times the limiting concentrations of radionuclide i from 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 2.0E-04 Ci/ml total activity.

m = The total number of measured radionuclides in the liquid batch to be released.

If the ECLf is less than or equal to 0.8, the liquid batch may be released at any radwaste discharge or blowdown rate. If the ECLf exceeds 0.8, then a dilution factor (Fd) must be determined. The liquid effluent radiation monitor responds proportionally to radioactivity concentrations in the undiluted waste stream. Its setpoint must be determined for diluted releases.

2.4.3 Methodology for the Determination of Minimum Dilution Factor The measured radionuclide concentrations are used to calculate the dilution factor (Fd), which is the ratio of the total discharge flow rates (RW + CBD) to the radwaste tank effluent flow rate (RW) that is required to assure that the limiting concentrations of RFO 6.2.1.1 are met at the point of discharge.

5 Amendment 50, May 2013

The minimum dilution factor (Fd) is determined according to:

Fd ECL f Fs (6) where:

Fd = The minimum dilution factor required for compliance with ten times 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2.

Fs = The safety factor; a conservative factor used to compensate for statistical fluctuations and errors in measurements. For example, a safety factor (Fs) of 1.5 corresponds to a fifty (50) percent (%) variation. The safety factor is 1.5.

The dilution which is required to ensure compliance with RFO 6.2.1.1 concentration limits will be set such that discharge rates are:

fw fb Fd (7) fw and follows that:

fb fw (7a)

Fd - 1 or fb fw Fd - 1 (7b) where:

Fd = The minimum dilution factor from Equation (6).

fw = The discharge flow rate from the liquid radwaste tank to the blowdown line (variable from 0 to 190 gpm).

fb = The cooling tower blowdown flow rate (variable from 0 to 7500 gpm).

6 Amendment 50, May 2013

2.4.4 Methodology for the Determination of Liquid Effluent Monitor Setpoints Liquid effluents must meet the restrictions at the point of discharge to the river of ten times ECL or less after dilution. Therefore, the Liquid Effluent Monitor setpoint must be determined such that it will terminate a discharge at less than or equal to that point. The dilution factor must satisfy Equation (7).

fb fw Setpoint C M (8) fw where:

Setpoint = the radwaste effluent monitor setpoint in Ci/ml.

CM = the maximum permissible diluted concentration, in Ci/ml, at the point of release that is in compliance with ten times 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B, Table 2, column 2.

fb and fw are defined in equation 7b.

The Liquid Effluent Monitor measures the undiluted effluent, therefore the term fb fw is used to correct for dilution.

fw The total ECL fraction of the batch to be discharged, ECLf is defined in Equation (5). Since the final concentration must be less than or equal to one ECLf:

1 m C M C i (8a)

ECL f i 1 Substituting into Equation (8):

1 m fb fw Setpoint C i (8b)

ECL f i 1 fw The Liquid Effluent Monitor reads out in counts per second (cps), therefore, it is necessary to convert the setpoint from Ci/ml to cps.

0.8 m fb fw SHIHI C i E i BKG (9)

ECL f i 1 fw 7 Amendment 50, May 2013

where:

SHIHI = the trip setpoint in cps Ei = the monitor efficiency for nuclide i, in cps/Ci/ml BKG = the monitor background in cps.

At low activity levels, the monitor demonstrates a normal instrument variation. In order to prevent spurious alarms and trips resulting from this variation, the setpoint can be calculated using a 1.0 ECLf representative mixture when the ECLf of the batch is less than 1.0 ECLf.

The effluent monitor also has a high alarm setpoint that will be set to alarm if the batch contents exceed the concentration expected for the current discharge. This will warn the operator that the batch release is not proceeding as anticipated by the prerelease calculation. The discharge should be stopped and the alarm cause investigated. The Hi alarm setpoint is determined to be at the monitor response for the current batch release multiplied by 1.25 to allow for normal variation in the monitor response. When the ECLf of the batch is less than 1.0 ECLf, the high setpoint will be the greater of either the calculated setpoint, or 80% of the setpoint determined from a 1.0 ECLf mixture.

m S HI BKG 1.25 C i E i (9a) i 1 where:

SHI is the monitor Hi setpoint in cps.

1.25 is a factor to account for normal variation in the monitor reading. It results in a maximum of a 25% greater than expected count rate before the alarm occurs.

S HI BKG 0.8

  • One - ECL (9b) where:

0.8 is the fraction to account for maximum instrument drift and loop uncertainties.

One-ECL is the count rate corresponding to a 1.0 ECLf representative mixture.

All other terms defined in Equations 5, 9, and 9a.

Setpoints established for periods when no release is taking place are described in the implementing procedures 8 Amendment 51, December 2013

2.5 10 CFR 50, Appendix I, Dose Calculation Surveillance Requirement 6.2.1.2.1 requires that the cumulative dose contributions be determined in accordance with the ODCM at least once per 31 days. RFO 6.2.1.2 specifies that the dose to a Member of the Public from radioactive material in liquid effluents released to the Unrestricted Area shall be limited to:

1.5 mrem/Calendar Quarter - Whole Body and 5.0 mrem/Calendar Quarter - Any Organ.

The cumulative dose for the calendar year shall be limited to:

3 mrem - Whole Body and 10 mrem - Any Organ.

The maximum exposed individual is distinguished as maximum with regard to usage factors which describe food intake, occupancy, breathing rate, and other factors of the area in the region of the plant site. It is assumed to be an adult whose exposure pathways include potable water and fish consumption. The choice of an adult as the maximum exposed individual is based on the highest fish and water consumption rates shown by that age group and the fact that most of the dose from the liquid effluent comes from these two pathways.

The dose contribution will be calculated for all radionuclides identified in the liquid effluent released to the unrestricted area, using the following equation:

m D = (Ai i

t C

=1 i F) (10) where:

D = The cumulative dose commitment to the whole body or organ, , from liquid m

effluents for the total time period t

=1 in mrem.

t = The length of the th time period over which Ci and F are averaged for all liquid releases, in hours.

m = The number of releases for the time period under consideration.

Ci = The average concentration of radionuclide i in undiluted liquid effluent during time period t from any liquid release, in Ci/ml.

9 Amendment 50, May 2013

Ai = The site-related ingestion dose commitment factor to the whole body or any organ for each identified principle gamma and beta emitter listed in Table 2-2, in mrem/hr per Ci/ml.

F = The near field average dilution factor for Ci during any liquid waste release.

This is defined as the ratio of the maximum undiluted liquid waste flow during release to the product of the average flow from the site discharge structure to unrestricted receiving waters times 500.

While the actual discharge structure exit flow is variable from 0 to 17.1 cfs (0 to 7690 gpm), a maximum flow value of 2.0 cfs will be used for dose calculation purposes in accordance with the NUREG-0133 requirement that the product of the average blowdown flow to the receiving water body, in cfs, and the applicable factor (500), is 1000 cfs or less.

Liquid Radioactive Waste Flow fw F (11)

Discharge Structure Exit Flow 500 ft 500 The term Ai , the ingestion dose factors for the whole body and critical organs, are tabulated in Table 2-2. It embodies the dose factor, fish bioaccumulation factor, pathway usage factor, and the dilution factor for the plant diffuser pipe to the Richland potable water intake. The following equation was used to calculate the ingestion dose factors:

Ai = Ko ( U W D W UF BFi )DFi (12) where:

Ai = The composite dose parameter for whole body or critical organ of an adult for nuclide i (in mrem/hr per Ci/ml).

Ko = A conversion factor:

1.14E+05 = (1E6 pCi/Ci) x (1E3 ml/liter)/8760 hr/yr.

Uw = 730 liter/yr - which is the annual water consumption by the maximum adult (Table E-4 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1).

BFi = Bioaccumulation factor for radionuclide i in fish - (pCi/Kg per pCi/liter) (Table A-1 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1 and NUREG/CR-4013).

DFi = Adult ingestion dose conversion factor for nuclide i - Whole body or critical organ, in (mrem/pCi) (Table E-11 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1 and NUREG/CR-4013).

Dw = Dilution factor from near field area (within one-quarter mile of the release point) to the Richland potable water intake - 100.

10 Amendment 50, May 2013

UF = Adult fish consumption, 21 kg/yr (Table E-5 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1).

The values of BFi and DFi are listed in Table 2-1.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's computer program LADTAP II can be used for dose analysis for liquid radioactive effluents from Columbia Generating Station into surface waters.

The analysis estimates the radiation dose to individuals, population groups, and biota from ingestion (aquatic foods, water, and terrestrial irrigated foods) and external exposure (shoreline, swimming, and boating) pathways. Dilution assumptions, calculations, and LADTAP II input parameters are provided in Radiological Health Calculation Log 92-2.

2.5.1 Projection of Doses The projected doses due to releases of radwaste liquid effluents will be calculated for each batch, using Equation (10) or LADTAP II. If the sum of the accumulated dose to date for the month and the projected dose for the remainder of the month exceeds the RFO 6.2.1.3 limits, then the liquid radwaste treatment system shall be used. This is to ensure compliance with RFO 6.2.1.3. Dose projections are performed by taking the ratio of the time period analyzed to the time period projected as described in plant procedures.

2.6 Methods for Calculating Doses to Man From Liquid Effluent Pathways Dose models presented in NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1, as incorporated in the LADTAP II computer code, will be used for offsite dose calculation. The details of the computer code, and user instruction, are included in NUREG/CR-4013, "LADTAP II - Technical Reference and User Guide."

2.6.2 Plant Parameters Columbia Generation Station is a river shoreline site with a variable effluent discharge flow rate 0 to 7690 gpm. The population center nearest the site is the city of Richland, where drinking water withdrawal takes place. The applicable dilution factor is 50,000, using average river flow.

The time required for released liquids to reach Richland, approximately 12 miles downstream, is estimated at 4.0 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br />. Richland is the "realistic case" location, and doses calculated for the Richland location are typically applicable to the population as a whole. Individual and population doses based on Richland parameters are calculated for all exposure pathways.

Only the population downstream of the site is affected by the liquid effluents released. There is no significant commercial fish harvest in the 50-mile radius region around Columbia Generating Station. Sportfish harvest is estimated at 14,000 kg/year.

For irrigated foods exposure pathways, it can be assumed that production within the 50-mile radius region around Columbia Generating Station is sufficient to satisfy consumption requirements.

Other relevant parameters relating to the irrigated foods pathways are defined as follows:

Irrigation Rate Annual Yield Growing Period 2 2 Food Type (liter/m /mo) (kg/m ) (Days)

Vegetation 150 5.0 70 Leafy Vegetation 200 1.5 70 Feed for Milk Cows 200 1.3 30 Feed for Beef Cattle 160 2.0 130 Source terms are measured based on sampled effluent.

Table 2-3 summarizes the LADTAP II input parameters. Documentation and/or calculations of these parameters are discussed in detail in PPM 16.12.1, and Radiological Health Calculation Log 92-2.

2.6.3 Ground Water Dose Calculations Site hydrology is described in FSAR section 2.4, Hydrology Engineering. FSAR Section 2.4.13.3, Accidental Effects, contains the methodology and parameters used to describe transport in ground water and appropriate Concentration Reduction Factors (CRF). The CRFs account for dispersion, sorption, decay and dilution of radionuclides in groundwater as it enters the unrestricted area. Additional dilution factors are applied as appropriate to determine concentrations at locations of interest. Dose to a Member of the Public due to ground water contamination will be determined using the LADTAP computer code. The LADTAP code implements the methodology described in Regulatory Guide 1.109.

Technical Specification 5.5.8.b states the quantity of radioactive material contained in any outside temporary tanks shall be limited to the limits calculated in the ODCM such that a complete release of the tank contents would not result in a concentration at the nearest offsite potable water supply that would exceed ten times the limits specified in 10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B, Table 2.

Equation (18) will be used to calculate the curie limit for a temporary radwaste hold-up tank.

The total tank activity will be limited to less than or equal to ten (10) curies, excluding tritium and dissolved or entrained gases.

The quantity of radioactive material in the hold-up tanks shall be determined to be within the limit by analyzing a representative sample of the tank's contents at least once per seven days when radioactive materials are being added to the tank.

where:

AT = Total allowed activity in tank (curies).

Ai = Activity of radioisotope i (curies).

ECLi = Ten times maximum permissible concentration of radionuclide i (10 CFR 20.1001 through 20.2402, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2).

i = Decay constant (years-1) radioisotope i.

t = Transit time of ground water from Columbia Generating Station to WNP-1 well (FSAR Section 2.4.13) = 67 years.

16 Amendment 51, December 2013

fi = Fraction of radioisotope A i Ai i = Index for all radioisotopes in tank except tritium and noble gases.

Kd = Dispersion constant based on hydrological parameters, (2.4E+05 Ci per Ci/cc.)

The total allowed activity (AT) is based on limiting WNP-1 well water to less than ten times ECLi if the entire liquid content of the tank spilled to ground and then migrated via ground water to the WNP-1 well. The WNP-1 well is the location of maximum concentration since it is the nearest source of ground water and conditions are such that no spill of liquid should reach surface water. The 55-60 foot depth of the water table and the low ambient moisture of the soil requires a rather large volume of spillage for the liquid to even reach the water table. However, allowed tank activity (AT) is conservatively based on all liquid radwaste in the tank instantaneously reaching the water table.

The hydrological analysis performed for the FSAR (Section 2.4) determined that the transit time through the ground water from Columbia Generating Station to the WNP-1 well is 67 years for Strontium and 660 years for Cesium. These two radionuclides are representative of the radionuclides found in liquid radwaste. Strontium is a moderate sorber and Cesium strongly sorbs to soil particles. This calculation conservatively treats all radionuclides as moderate sorbers with a transit time of 67 years.

The concentration of each radionuclide in the well (CWi) is simply the concentration in the tank (CTi) adjusted for radioactive decay during transit ( e t ) and divided by the minimum concentration reduction factor (CRFmin). Limiting well concentration to 10 X ECL yields:

2.8 Other Liquid Radiation Monitors Other Liquid Radiation Monitors are provided at Columbia Generating Station to monitor the status of normally non-radioactive systems. These monitors are:

Calculational methodology is not provided in the ODCM for these monitors since their setpoints do not require extensive analysis. Their setpoints are established simply as a fraction of the selected 10 CFR 20 isotope concentration. The ODCM Appendix provides these setpoints in Sections 6.1.1 and B6.1.1. These setpoints are implemented in Plant Procedures.

3.0 GASEOUS EFFLUENT DOSE CALCULATIONS Gaseous effluent dose calculations are discussed in this section of the ODCM. Calculations of gaseous effluent dose rate are made to show compliance with the limits of 10 CFR 20. The methodology for calculating dose rate due to noble gases, radionuclides, and particulates are discussed. Methods used to determine the setpoints for the gaseous effluent monitors are also described. Finally, the methods used to calculate off-site radiation dose due to gaseous effluents in order to show compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix I are outlined.

3.1 Introduction Gaseous effluents are released on a continuous basis; in addition, batch releases may occur when containment purges are performed without going through Standby Gas Treatment and when the offgas treatment system operates in the charcoal bypass mode.

Figure 3-1 delineates the Site Boundary, which for dose calculation purposes, is considered circular with a radius of 1950 meters (approximately 1.212 miles). There are several low occupancy unrestricted locations within the site boundary. The locations are:

1. Wye burial site (burial ground 618-11) - controlled by DOE.
2. DOE railroad - approximately three miles of rail line pass through the site.
3. BPA Ashe Substation - occupied 2080 hour0.0241 days <br />0.578 hours <br />0.00344 weeks <br />7.9144e-4 months <br />s/year. These people are not normally controlled by Energy Northwest but are involved in activities directly in support of Columbia Generating Station.
4. WNP occupied 2080 hrs/yr. This location is controlled by Energy Northwest.

However, activities are not in direct support of Columbia Generating Station.

5. WNP occupied 2080 hrs/yr. This location is controlled by Energy Northwest.

However, activities are not in direct support of Columbia Generating Station.

All other locations shown in Figure 3-1 support Columbia Generating Station activities and are controlled by Energy Northwest. Figure 3-2 provides a simplified block diagram of the gaseous radwaste system for the reactor, turbine and radwaste buildings. Figure 3-3 provides a simplified block diagram for the offgas treatment system.

Examples of air doses and doses to individuals at these locations were calculated based on the NRC GALE code design base mixture, location-specific estimated occupancy, and X/Qs from 1984-1989 meteorological data. These doses are listed in Tables 3-16 and 3-17 along with the doses to the maximum exposed individual. In the example calculations, the most exposed member of the public beyond the site boundary was considered to be residing in Taylor Flats (4.2 miles ESE of Columbia Generating Station). This was the residential area with the highest X/Q and D/Q values.

27 Amendment 51, December 2013

Examples of air doses and doses from ground shine and inhalation to National Guard troops stationed at or within the site boundary were also calculated based on the Gale Code design mixture (FSAR Table 11.3-7), a one year duration of stay, and on meteorological data averaged from 1997 to 2000 plus 2002. The results are tabulated in Tables 3-16 and 3-17 for the two sectors with the highest dispersion and deposition factors.

The Auxiliary Boiler and Seal Steam Evaporator B have occasionally become contaminated with tritium. Seal Steam Evaporator B normally supplies heating steam to the Reactor, Radwaste, Turbine, Diesel Generator, and Service buildings as well as the Liquid Nitrogen pad. When Seal Steam Evaporator B is not in operation, the Auxiliary Boiler provides the heating steam.

The heating steam system is designed with multiple vents to the atmosphere and provides a possible source of radioactive effluent when in operation. The contamination levels are monitored and controlled through plant procedures. Makeup water is supplied by normally non-radioactive demineralized water. In 1992, an offsite dose calculation was performed using the current administrative limit of 2.0 E+06 picoCuries per liter of tritium activity in the Auxiliary Boiler and Seal Steam Evaporator B systems. Using NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109 methodology with FSAR Low Population Zone (LPZ) X/Q values and assuming one gallon per minute (1 gpm) makeup flow rate for 180 days plus a one time complete boil-off of the total water inventory, the dose contribution from tritium was calculated as less than one tenth of a millirem per year (<0.1 mrem/yr). Figure 3-4 provides a simplified diagram for the Auxiliary Boiler. Estimates of annual releases from the heating steam are reported in the annual effluent report based on sampling the Auxiliary Boiler and Seal Steam Evaporator B and assuming that the entire source term is released during the heating cycle.

Under certain meteorological conditions, tritiated water vapor that has been released from the plant may condense onto surfaces such as rooftops and exterior walls. Subsequently, this condensed, recaptured, tritiated water may be carried with precipitation into the Storm Drain Pond (SDP) which serves as a collection point for rainfall on plant roofs. Influent to the SDP is continuously sampled and periodically analyzed for tritium content 3.2 Gaseous Effluent Radiation Monitoring System 3.2.1 Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Radiation Monitor The Reactor Building is continuously monitored for gaseous radioactivity prior to discharge to the environment. The effluent is supplied from: the gland seal exhauster, mechanical vacuum pumps, treated off gas, standby gas treatment, and exhaust air from the entire reactor building's ventilation. Further information on this monitoring system can be found in FSAR Section 11.5.2.2.1.5 and the Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation Bases, ODCM Appendix, B6.1.2.

28 Amendment 50, May 2013

3.2.2 Radwaste Building Ventilation Exhaust Monitor The radwaste building ventilation exhaust monitoring system monitors the radioactivity in the Radwaste Building exhaust air prior to discharge. Radioactivity can originate from: radwaste tank vents, laboratory hoods, and various cubicles housing liquid process treatment equipment and systems.

Further information on this monitoring system can be found in FSAR Section 11.5.2.2.1.7 and the Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation Bases, ODCM Appendix, B6.1.2.

3.2.3 Turbine Building Ventilation Exhaust Monitor This monitoring system detects fission and the activation products from the turbine building air which may be present due to leaks from the turbine and other primary components in the building. Further information on this instrumentation can be found in FSAR Section 11.5.2.2.1.6 and the ODCM Appendix, Section B6.1.2.

3.3 Release Rate Limits Limits for release of gaseous effluents from the site to areas at and beyond the site boundary are stated in RFO 6.2.2.1.

+ Wg Q it 1500 mrem/yr ig (3) i The terms used in Equations (1) through (3) are defined as follows:

Ki = The whole body dose factor due to gamma emissions for each identified noble gas radionuclide i (mrem/yr per Ci/m3).

Li = The skin dose factor due to beta emissions for each identified noble gas radionuclide i (mrem/yr per Ci/m3).

Mi = The air dose factor due to gamma emissions for each identified noble gas radionuclide in mrad/yr per Ci/m3 (unit conversion constant of 1.1 mrem/mrad converts air dose to skin dose).

Pi = The dose parameter for all radionuclides other than noble gases for the inhalation pathway, (mrem/yr per Ci/m3) and for food and ground plane pathways, m2(mrem/yr per Ci/sec). The dose factors are based on the critical individual organ and the most restrictive age group.

The factors, Li and Mi, relate the radionuclide airborne concentrations to various dose rates assuming a semi-infinite cloud. These factors are listed in Table B-1 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1, and in Table 3-1 of this manual.

The values used in the equations for the implementation of RFO 6.2.2.1 are based upon the maximum long-term annual average X/Q at and beyond the site boundary. Table 3-2 provides typical receptor locations and pathways for use in dose determinations. Table 3-3 provides these typical locations with long term X/Q and D/Q values which may be used if current annual averages are not available.

Gaspar II computer runs may use the X/Q and D/Q values listed in Tables 3-10, 3-11, and 3-12 or current meteorological data.

3.3.2.1 Dose Parameter for Radionuclide i (Pi)

The dose parameters used in Equation (3) are based on:

31 Amendment 51, December 2013

1. Inhalation and ground plane. (Note: Food pathway is not applicable since no food is grown at or near the restricted area boundary.)
2. The annual average continuous release meteorology at the site boundary.
3. The critical organ for each radionuclide (thyroid for radioiodine).
4. The most restrictive age group.

The following equation will be used to calculate P (Inhalation). P (Inhalation).

i P (Inhalation) = K A (BR) DFAi ( mrem/yr per Ci/ m3) (4) i where:

KA = A conversion constant, 1E6 pCi/Ci.

The inhalation dose factor for DFAi for the child age group is listed in Table E-9 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1, and Table 3-4 of this manual. Resolving the units yields:

P (Inhalation) = (3.7E 9) ( DFAi )(mrem/yr per Ci/ m3) (5) i P (Inhalation) values for the child age group are tabulated in Table 3-4 of this manual.

i 3.4 Calculation of Gaseous Effluent Monitor Alarm Setpoints 3.4.1 Introduction The following procedure is used to ensure that the dose rate at or beyond the site boundary due to noble gases in the gaseous effluent do not exceed 500 mrem/yr to the whole body or 3000 mrem/yr to the skin. The initial setpoints determination was calculated using a conservative radionuclide mix obtained from the GALE code. When sufficient measurable process fission gases are in the effluent, then the actual radionuclide mix will be used to calculate the alarm setpoint.

32 Amendment 51, December 2013

3.4.2 Setpoint Determination for all Gaseous Release Paths The setpoints for gaseous effluent are based on instantaneous noble gas dose rates. The three release points will be partitioned such that their sum does not exceed 100 percent of the limit.

The setpoints are set at the following:

40 percent for the reactor building 40 percent for the turbine building 20 percent for the radwaste building These percentages could vary at the plant discretion, should the operational conditions warrant such change. However, the combined releases due to variations in the setpoints will not result in doses which exceed the limit stated in RFO. Both skin dose and whole body setpoints will be calculated and the lower limit will be used. The mechanical vacuum pump discharge radiation monitor setpoint is also established using the methodology of this section.

3.4.2.1 Setpoints Calculations Based on Whole Body Dose Limits The fraction ( i ) of the total gaseous radioactivity in each gaseous effluent release path j for each noble gas radionuclide i will be determined by using the following equation:

M ij ij (dimensionless) (6)

M Tj where:

Mij = The measured individual concentration of radionuclide i in the gaseous effluent release path j (Ci/cc).

MTj = The measured total concentration of all noble gases identified in the gaseous effluent release path j (Ci/cc).

Based on RFO 6.2.2.1, the maximum acceptable release rate of all noble gases in the gaseous effluent release path j is calculated by using the following equation:

Fj 500 Q Tj m Ci/sec (7)

X/Q j K i ij i=1 Where:

QTj = The maximum acceptable release rate (Ci/sec) of all noble gases in the gaseous effluent release path j (Ci/cc).

33 Amendment 51, December 2013

X/Qj = Maximum normalized diffusion coefficient of effluent release path j at and beyond the site boundary (sec/m3). Radwaste building values are based on average annual ground level values. Reactor building and Turbine building release values are for mixed mode and may be either short term or average annual value dependent upon type of release.

Ki = The total whole body dose factor due to gamma emission from noble gas nuclide i (mrem/yr per Ci/m3) (as listed in Table B-1 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1).

ij = As defined in Equation (6).

m = Total number of radionuclides in the gaseous effluent.

j = Different release pathways.

The total maximum acceptable concentration (CTj) of noble gas radionuclides in the gaseous effluent release path j (Ci/cc) will be calculated by using the following equation:

Q Tj C Tj Ci/cc (7a)

Rj where:

CTj = The total allowed concentration of all noble gas radionuclides in the gaseous effluent release path j (Ci/cc).

QTj = The maximum acceptable release rate (Ci/sec) of all noble gases in the gaseous effluent release path j.

Rj = The effluent release rate (cc/sec) at the point of release.

To determine the maximum acceptable concentration (Cij) of noble gas radionuclide i in the gaseous effluent for each individual noble gas in the gaseous effluent (Ci/cc), the following equation will be used:

where:

C ij ij C Tj Ci/cc (7b) ij and CTj are as defined in Equations (6) and (7a) respectively, the gaseous effluent monitor alarm setpoint will then be calculated as follows:

m CR j C ij E ij cpm (7c) i=1 34 Amendment 51, December 2013

where:

CRj = Count rate above background (cpm) for gaseous release path j.

Cij = The maximum acceptable concentration of noble gas nuclide i in the gaseous effluent release path j (Ci/cc).

Eij = Detection efficiency of the gaseous effluent monitor j for noble gas i (cpm/Ci/cc).

3.4.2.2 Setpoints Calculations Based on Skin Dose Limits The method for calculating the setpoints to ensure compliance with the skin dose limits specified in RFO 6.2.2.1.a is similar to the one described for whole body dose limits (Section 3.6.2.1 of this manual), except Equation (7d) will be used instead of Equation (7) for determining maximum acceptable release rate (QTj).

Fj 3000 Q Tj m Ci/sec (7d)

(X/Q j ) L i 1.1M i ij i=1 where:

QTj = The maximum acceptable release rate of all noble gases in the gaseous effluent release path j in Ci/sec.

X/Qj = The maximum annual normalized diffusion coefficient for release path j at and beyond the site boundary (sec/m3).

1.1 = A conversion factor to convert dose in mrad to dose equivalent in mrem.

35 Amendment 50, May 2013

3.5 10 CFR 50 Dose Calculation The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission's computer program GASPAR II can be used to perform environmental dose analyses for releases of radioactive effluents from Columbia Generating Station into the atmosphere. The analyses estimates radiation dose to individuals and population groups from inhalation, ingestion (terrestrial foods), and external exposure (ground and plume) pathways. The calculated doses provide information for determining compliance with Appendix I of 10 CFR 50.

Both the ODCM equations and the NRC GASPAR II computer program for estimating the highest dose to any organ for a particular age group provides conservatism in calculating maximum organ doses. This conservatism is recognized and is intentional.

Determination of doses due to short-term releases can use the annual average relative concentration (long-term) if it can be demonstrated that past short-term releases were sufficiently random in both time of day and duration (e.g., the short-term release periods were not dependent solely on atmospheric conditions or time of day) to be represented by the annual average dispersion conditions.

The requirements pertaining to 10 CFR 50 dose limits are specified in RFO 6.2.2.2 and 6.2.2.3.

4.0 COMPLIANCE WITH 40 CFR 190 - TOTAL DOSE 4.1 Requirement for Operability (RFO)

RFO 6.2.3 states, "The annual dose or dose commitment to any Member of the Public in the Unrestricted Area beyond the site boundary, due to releases of radioactivity and 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 and to less than or equal to 75 mrems to the thyroid."

4.2 ODCM Methodology for Determining Dose and Dose Commitment from Uranium Fuel Cycle Sources The annual dose or dose commitment to a Member of the Public for the uranium fuel cycle sources is determined as:

a) Dose to the whole body due to the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents.

b) Dose to any organ due to the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents.

c) Air doses due to noble gases released in gaseous effluents.

d) Dose to any organ due to the release of radioiodines, tritium and radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days in gaseous effluents.

e) Dose due to direct radiation from the plant.

The annual dose or dose commitment to a Member of the Public from the uranium fuel cycle sources is determined whenever the calculated doses from the release of radioactive materials in liquid or gaseous effluents exceed twice the limits in RFO 6.2.1.2.a, 6.2.1.2.b, 6.2.2.2.a, 6.2.2.2.b, 6.2.2.3.a, or 6.2.2.3.b. Direct radiation measurements may also be made to determine if the limits of RFO 6.2.3.1 have been exceeded.

4.2.1 Total Dose from Liquid Effluents The annual dose to a Member of the Public from liquid effluents will be determined using NRC LADTAP II computer code or the methodology presented by Equation (10) in Section 2.5. It is assumed that dose contribution pathways to a Member of the Public do not exist for areas within the Site Boundary.

89 Amendment 51, December 2013

4.2.2 Total Dose from Gaseous Effluents The annual dose to a Member of the Public from gaseous effluents will be determined using NRC GASPAR II computer code or the methodology presented by Equations (10), (11) and (13) in Section 3.5. Appropriate atmospheric dispersion parameters will be used.

4.2.3 Direct Radiation Contribution The dose to a Member of the Public due to direct radiation from the reactor plant and the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) will be determined using thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) or may be calculated. TLDs are placed at sample locations and analyzed as per Table 6.3.1-1.

5.0 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING Radiological environmental monitoring is intended to supplement radiological effluent monitoring by verifying that measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation in the environment are not greater than expected based on effluent measurement and dose modeling of environmental exposure pathways. The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) for Columbia Generating Station provides for measurements of radiation and radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides for which the highest potential dose commitment to a Member of the Public would result due to plant operations. The REMP implements Sections IV.B.2, IV.B.3, and IV.C of Appendix I to 10 CFR 50. It also provides the information required by Technical Specification Section 5.6.1.

The REMP is designed to conform to regulatory guidance provided by Regulatory Guide 4.1, 4.8, 4.15 and the Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position (BTP), taking into consideration certain site specific characteristics. The unique nature of the site on Federally owned and administered land (Hanford Site) dedicated to energy facilities, research, waste management and as a natural reserve, forms the basis for many of the site specific parameters.

Among the many site specific parameters considered is demographic data such as:

No significant clusters of population including schools, hospitals, business facilities or primary public transportation routes are located within eight km (five mile) radius of the plant.

No private residences are located on the Hanford Site.

The closest resident is east of the Columbia River at a distance of approximately four miles.

5.1 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP)

Environmental samples for the REMP are collected in accordance with ODCM RFO 6.3.1 and Table 6.3.1-1. This table provides a detailed outline of the environmental sampling plan items by sample type, sampling and collection frequency, and type and frequency of analysis.

Deviations from the sampling frequency detailed in Table 6.3.1-1 may occur due to circumstances such as hazardous conditions, malfunction of automatic sampling equipment, seasonal unavailability, or other legitimate reasons. When sample media is unobtainable due to equipment malfunction, special actions per program instruction shall be taken to ensure that corrective action is implemented prior to the end of the next sampling period. In some cases, alternate sample collection may be substituted for the missing specimen.

Sampling stations are described in Table 5-1. Each station is identified by an assigned number or alphanumeric designation, meteorological sector (16 different, 22-1/2° compass sections) in which the station is located, and radial distance from containment as estimated from map positions. Also included in Table 5-1 is information identifying the type(s) of samples collected at each station. Figures 5-1 and 5-2 depict the geographical locations of each of the sample stations listed in Table 5-1.

91 Amendment 51, December 2013

5.2 Land Use Census A Land Use Census shall be conducted in accordance with the requirements of ODCM RFO 6.3.2. It shall identify within a distance of 8 km (5 miles) in each of the 16 meteorological sectors, the location of the nearest milk animal, the nearest residence and the nearest garden of greater than 50m2 (500 ft2) producing broad leaf vegetation. Field activities pertaining to the Land Use Census will be initiated during the growing season and completed no later than September 30 each year. The information obtained during the field survey is used along with other demographic data to assess population changes in the unrestricted area that might require modifications in the sampling plan to ensure adequate evaluation of dose or dose commitment.

5.3 Laboratory Intercomparison Program A Laboratory Intercomparison program shall be conducted in accordance with the requirements of ODCM RFO 6.3.3. Analysis of REMP samples is contracted to a provider of radiological analytical services. By contract, this analytical service vendor is required to conduct all activities in accordance with Regulatory Guides 4.1, 4.8, and 4.15 and to include in each quarterly report, actions pertinent to their participation in the Interlaboratory Comparison Program. A precontract award survey and periodic audit at the contractor's facility ensure that the contractor is participating in the Crosscheck Program, as reported.

A Laboratory Intercomparison program shall be conducted in accordance with the requirements of ODCM RFO 6.3.3. Energy Northwest Laboratories or contract Laboratories that perform environmental measurements for ODCM RFO 6.3.3 are to participate in an Intercomparison Study (cross-check) Program that maintains traceability to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) or equivalent. This participation should include all of the determinations (sample medium/radionuclide combinations) that are routinely analyzed in the environmental monitoring program. Any contract laboratory performing analysis for the environmental monitoring program is required to conduct activities in accordance with the relevant sections of Regulatory Guides 4.1, 4.8, 4.13, and 4.15. A precontract award survey and periodic audits of the contractor Laboratory are made to ensure that the contractor is participating in a crosscheck program and conducting analysis activities in a manner that meets or exceeds the requirements in the regulatory guides. The contract Laboratory will make available the results of its participation in both interlaboratory and intralaboratory cross check programs.

In addition to participation in an Interlaboratory Comparison Program, the Columbia Generating Station REMP routinely splits environmental samples with the Washington State Department of Health (DOH). This split sample program provides an additional, independent check of the environmental monitoring program ability to accurately analyze environmental samples for radiological constituents.

Energy Northwest participates in the International Intercomparison of Environmental Dosimeter Program. Results of this intercomparison program are reported in the REMP Annual Report, when available.

The Site Boundary shall be that line beyond which the land is neither owned, nor leased, nor otherwise controlled by the licensee.

Source Check A Source Check shall be the qualitative assessment of channel response when the channel sensor is exposed to a radioactive source.

Columbia Generating Station 6.0.1-2 Amendment 50, May 2013

Definitions 6.0.1 6.0.1 Definitions Unrestricted Area An Unrestricted Area shall be any area at or beyond the Site Boundary access which is not controlled by the licensee for purposes of protection of individuals from exposure to radiation and radioactive materials, or any area within the site boundary used for residential quarters or for industrial, commercial, institutional, and/or recreational purposes.

Ventilation Exhaust A Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System shall be Treatment System any system designed and installed to reduce gaseous radioiodine or radioactive material in particulate form in effluents by passing ventilation or vent exhaust gases through charcoal adsorbers and/or HEPA filters for the purpose of removing iodines or particulates from the gaseous exhaust stream prior to the release to the environment. Such a system is not considered to have any effect on noble gas effluents.

Engineered Safety Features Atmospheric Cleanup Systems are not considered to be Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System components.

Venting Venting shall be the controlled process of discharging air or gas from a containment to maintain temperature, pressure, humidity, concentration, or other operating condition, in such a manner that replacement air or gas is not provided or required during Venting. Vent, used in system names, does not imply a Venting process.

ODCM APPENDIX COLUMBIA GENERATING STATION Bases For Radiological Effluent And Radiological Environmental Monitoring Controls

Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.1 B 6.1 INSTRUMENTATION B 6.1.1 Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation BASES BACKGROUND The radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, releases of radioactive material in liquid effluents during normal plant operation. They are also provided to monitor potential releases from anticipated operational transients. These instruments are required by General Design Criteria 60, 63, and 64 of Reference 1. Setpoints for these instruments are established by the methodology of ODCM Section 2.0 to ensure compliance with the limits of Reference 2. Specific requirements for this instrumentation are provided in the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for BWRs (Ref. 3).

Additional guidance is provided in References 4 and 5.

APPLICABLE The radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation provides SAFETY assurance that radioactive releases resulting from normal operation and ANALYSES any potential radioactive releases caused by Anticipated Operational Transients are monitored. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 6) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased radioactive liquid effluent releases. Additional information on the Radioactive Liquid Process and Effluent Radiation Monitoring System can be found in Reference 7. The liquid process and effluent radiation monitors are listed in Reference 8.

REQUIREMENTS 1. Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line Gross Radioactivity Monitor FOR OPERABILITY This monitor measures the radioactivity in the liquid effluent prior to its entering the cooling tower blowdown line. All radioactive liquid effluent passes through this four inch line. The detector has seven decades of range and has a sensitivity of 10E-6 µCi/cc for Cs-137. This monitor will automatically close a valve stopping the effluent release if its setpoint is exceeded. Reference 9 provides additional information on this monitor.

2. Deleted
3. Turbine Service Water (TSW) System Gross Radioactivity Monitor The TSW System provides for the removal of heat from balance of plant auxiliary equipment (Ref. 11). It is normally a non-radioactive system but it has the potential to become contaminated because it provides cooling to some reactor auxiliary systems. This radioactivity monitor is provided to detect that off-normal condition Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.1-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.1 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued) by monitoring for radioactivity in the TSW return header to the Circulating Water System. The monitor is located on the 441' level of the turbine building. The readout meter and recorder are located in the main control room panel BD-RAD-24.

If the setpoint is exceeded, an alarm will activate in the main control room. The control room operator can then evaluate and take action to terminate the discharge and mitigate any uncontrolled release of radioactive material. Reference 12 provides additional information on this subsystem.

4. Standby Service Water (SW) System Gross Radioactivity Monitor The SW System provides cooling to the reactor during normal shutdown conditions. It also provides cooling of the reactor during emergency conditions (Ref. 13). The SW system has the potential to become contaminated because of its interface with the heat exchangers that cool the reactor. This radiation monitor is provided to detect any increase in radioactivity in the system.

The SW monitors are located on the 501 and 522 foot level of the reactor building, with meters located in the main control room on panel P-604.

If the setpoint is exceeded, an alarm will activate in the main control room. The control room operator can then evaluate and take action to terminate the discharge and mitigate any uncontrolled release of radioactive material. Reference 14 provides further information on this subsystem.

5. Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line Flow Rate Monitor This flow rate monitor measures the flow of effluent from the Liquid Waste Management System. This flow is variable from zero to 190 gpm. The flow rate recorder is located in the radwaste control room. Two displays of flow are provided: the red pen spans a flow rate from zero to 270 gpm and the green pen from zero to 35 gpm.
6. Plant Discharge Blowdown Line Flow Rate Monitor This instrument measures the flow in the circulating water (CW) blowdown line. Water from the CW System is returned to the Columbia River in order to prevent the buildup of dissolved solids in the cooling water. This flow is recorded (range 0 - 7500 gpm) in the Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.1-2 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.1 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued) main control room. The radioactive liquid effluent from the plant is normally mixed with this blowdown flow to provide dilution before release into the river (Ref. 15).

7. Alarm/Trip Setpoints For Function 1, the set point is adjusted based on the material to be released. The monitor is set to ensure the concentration limits of RFO 6.2.1.1 are not exceeded during the release. The setpoint is adjusted to make sure the release into the Columbia River is below the required limits taking into account the amount of radioactivity in the batch being released and the dilution flow in the blowdown line.

For Functions 2 through 4, the alarm/trip setpoints are based on Reference 2 limits. To ensure these limits are never exceeded, the alarm setpoint shall be established at 80% or less of the maximum setpoint plus background. This setpoint corresponds to a Cs-137 concentration of 8E-6 µCi/ml.

Functions 5 and 6 are record only and have no setpoints. A record of the flow is important to verify dilution parameters.

APPLICABILITY Gross radioactivity monitors on the SW System and TSW System are required to be in service when there is flow in the respective system. The SW monitors are not required to be Functional when there is no flow in the SW System. Similarly, when there is no flow in the TSW System, the TSW radioactivity monitors are not required to be Functional. Without flow, the monitors are not able to detect leakage.

The Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line Gross Radioactivity Monitor and its corresponding Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line Flow Rate Monitor and the Plant Discharge Blowdown Line Flow Rate Monitor are only required when radioactive effluents are being discharged through this pathway.

COMPENSATORY A.1, B.1, B.2, B.3, and E.1 MEASURES These Compensatory Measures give the actions required to be taken if the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line Gross Radioactivity Monitor (Function 1) is nonfunctional and batch releases are to continue. Two independent samples must be taken and analyzed from the batch to be released. The calculations and valve lineups must be verified by two qualified members of the technical staff. These actions are necessary to provide assurance that a controlled release can occur with a nonfunctional monitor. If the monitor is not restored to Functional status Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.1-3 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.1 BASES COMPENSATORY MEASURES (continued) in 30 days, it must be reported in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report. This provides the NRC with information on the status of nonfunctional equipment.

A.1, C.1, C.2, and E.1 These Compensatory Measures are required to be taken if the TSW, or SW Gross Radioactivity Monitors (Functions 3, and 4) are nonfunctional.

Grab samples are required to be taken and analyzed every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.

The 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> frequency provides an adequate indication of the trend of radioactivity in these locations when the monitor is not Functional. The channel instrument must also be restored to Functional status within 30 days. The 30 day limit provides an acceptable risk for this loss of monitoring condition. If the monitor is not restored to Functional status in 30 days, it must be reported in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

A.1, D.1, D.2, and E.1 These Compensatory Measures are associated with the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line and Plant Discharge Line Flow Rates. These flow rates are required to determine the concentration of the effluents released. If the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Flow Monitor is not Functional and a release is to occur the flow must be estimated. This is done by observing the level in the tank being pumped initially and every 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />. The combination of tank level and time can be used to estimate the flow. If the Plant Discharge Blowdown Line Flow Rate Monitor is not Functional during a radioactive release, blowdown flow must also be estimated. Methods of estimating this flow rate using pump differential pressure are given in plant procedures. A release can occur with no dilution from the blowdown line if the concentration of radioactivity being releases is low enough to meet limits without dilution.

SURVEILLANCE SR 6.1.1.1 REQUIREMENTS A CHANNEL CHECK is required every 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> when a monitor is required to be functional.

A CHANNEL CHECK for the flow instruments associated with a batch release is required before a radioactive release and every 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> thereafter until the release is complete. This ensures the flow instruments are Functional prior to and during a batch release.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.1-4 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

SR 6.1.1.2 The Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line Monitor is used for batch releases and a Source Check must be performed prior to each release. This provides increased confidence that the instrument will operate as required to prevent further releases if its trip setpoint is exceeded.

SR 6.1.1.3 A Source Check is required monthly to ensure all gross radioactivity monitors are functional. The monthly interval provides adequate reliability of instrument operation if needed to perform its function.

SR 6.1.1.4 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST is required on all Radioactive Liquid Monitoring Instrumentation listed on Table 6.1.1-1 quarterly. This test interval is adequate to ensure the instrument will perform its complete function. The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST for the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line must demonstrate automatic isolation of the effluent pathway.

The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST for all gross radioactivity monitors must demonstrate that control room annunciation occurs if the:

a) instrument indicates measured levels above the alarm setpoint, b) high voltage abnormally low, and c) instrument indicates downscale failure.

These tests are required to provide assurance of channel operation. In addition, the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line and SW Gross Radioactivity Monitors must demonstrate control room alarm annunciation if the instrument controls are not set in the operate mode. This test provides increased assurance that the plant operators are aware of a nonfunctional instrument.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.1-5 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

SR 6.1.1.5 A CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall be performed on all Radioactive Liquid Monitoring Instrumentation listed on Table 6.1.1-1 every 18 months. This time interval provides adequate protection against drift and other changes in the instrument performance. For the gross radioactivity monitors the initial CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall be performed using one or more reference standards certified by the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) or using standards that have been obtained from suppliers that participate in measurement assurance activities with NIST.

These standards shall permit calibrating the system. For subsequent CHANNEL CALIBRATION, sources that have been related to the initial calibration shall be used. These standards provide assurance of instrument accuracy.

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 B 6.1 INSTRUMENTATION B 6.1.2 Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation BASES BACKGROUND The radioactive gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, releases of radioactive material in gaseous effluents. These instruments are required by General Design Criteria 60, 63, and 64 of Reference 1. Setpoints for these instruments are established by the methodology of ODCM Section 3.0 to ensure compliance with the limits of Reference 2. Specific requirements for this instrumentation are provided in the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for BWRs (Ref. 3). Additional guidance is provided in References 4 and 5.

APPLICABLE The radioactive gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation provides SAFETY assurance that radioactive releases resulting from normal operation and ANALYSES any potential radioactive releases caused by Anticipated Operational Transients are monitored. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 6) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased gaseous effluent releases. The FSAR (Ref. 7) provides additional information on the Gaseous Process and Effluent Radiation Monitoring System.

Reference 8 provides additional detail on the Gaseous Process and Effluent Radiation Monitors.

REQUIREMENTS 1. Main Condenser Offgas Post-Treatment Radiation Monitors FOR OPERABILITY Two monitors measure the radioactivity in the offgas piping downstream of the off gas system charcoal vessels and upstream of the offgas system discharge valve. The normal mode of operation for the offgas system is to have the charcoal beds in service. The purpose of these radiation monitors is to provide information on the concentration of radioactivity in the offgas process stream after treatment and to automatically isolate the offgas system or to automatically initiate offgas treatment if the system is being operated in the bypass mode. Radiation is measured by a scintillation detector and the activity concentration is displayed in the main control room. An auxiliary trip unit uses the signal from both of these two detectors to isolate the effluent of the offgas system if the logic is satisfied by a combination of high-high-high radiation and downscale trips.

Another trip signal from either of these monitors initiates opening of the charcoal absorber treatment valve and closure of the bypass valve if the system is being run in the bypass mode during plant startup. Alarms are provided in the main control room that show monitor system status.

Further information on the subsystem can be found in Reference 9.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.2-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued)

2. Main Condenser Offgas Pre-Treatment Radiation Monitor This monitor is located at the outlet of the water separator downstream of the catalytic recombiners. The monitor measures the radioactivity due to fission gases and activation products produced in the reactor and transported with the steam through the turbine to the condenser. The purpose of this monitor is to provide the main control room with information on the amount of gamma radioactivity in the untreated offgas stream. The detector is a gamma-sensitive ion chamber. Trip outputs are used for alarm only. Further information on this subsystem can be found in Reference 10.

2a. Mechanical Vacuum Pump Discharge Radiation Monitor This Geiger Mueller type radiation monitor is designed to alarm, stop, and isolate the mechanical vacuum pumps in the event of high levels of radioactive gases in the air being exhausted from the condenser. The mechanical vacuum pumps are operated during plant start-ups to remove bulk air from the condenser. They are stopped when the steam jet air ejectors are put into service. Further information on this radiation monitoring system can be found in Reference 11.

3. Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Radiation Monitor This monitoring system measures radioactivity in the reactor building elevated release duct from the:

a) offgas effluent, b) the Gland Seal System, c) Mechanical Vacuum Pump, d) the Standby Gas Treatment System, and e) the exhaust air from the Reactor Building Ventilation System.

The purpose of this monitoring subsystem is to characterize the radioactivity being released through the reactor building elevated discharge vent and to provide alarms in the event of abnormal operation.

The monitor has no control function but an alarm is provided in the control room if the setpoint is exceeded.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.2-2 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued)

A continuous representative sample is extracted from the elevated release duct through an isokinetic probe. The sample is filtered to collect particulates and passes through an impregnated charcoal cartridge to collect iodine. The sample travels through a flow indicator that provides flow rate and totalized flow. Both the sample flow rate and the exhaust duct flow rate and their totalized flow are recorded and alarmed in the control room. These samples are collected and analyzed per SR 6.2.2.1.2 and Table 6.2.2.1-1.

Further information on this subsystem can be found in Reference 12.

Footnote (b) of Table 6.1.2-1 is intended to address the condition when neither the Reactor Building Ventilation System nor the Standby Gas Treatment System is operating. If there is no flow through the elevated discharge point this monitor is not Functional and the Compensatory Measures are also not effective. The reactor building is a confinement structure which acts as a secondary containment so leakage of radioactive material should be limited. Under these no effluent flow conditions building ambient air samples, building equipment status, including the identification of possible sources of radioactivity, and meteorological data can be used to estimate the out-leakage from the building. The Technical Specifications place severe limits on the amount of time that can be spent without secondary containment so this condition is not likely to persist for any length of time.

4. Turbine Building Exhaust Radiation Monitor This monitoring system measures radioactivity in the turbine building exhaust. The monitor detects fission and activation products from the steam which may leak from the turbine or other equipment in the building.

The purpose of this monitoring subsystem is to characterize the radioactivity being released through the turbine building discharge vent and to provide alarms in the event of abnormal operation. The monitor is read and recorded in the main control room. An alarm is provided in the control room if the setpoint is exceeded.

A continuous representative sample is extracted from the exhaust duct through an multi-ported isokinetic probe. The sample is filtered to collect particulates and passes through an impregnated charcoal cartridge to collect iodine. These samples are collected and analyzed per SR 6.2.2.1.2 and Table 6.2.2.1-1.

Further information on this subsystem can be found in Reference 13.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.2-3 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued)

Footnote (b) of Table 6.1.2-1 is intended to address the condition when the Turbine Building Ventilation System is not operating. If there is no flow through the turbine building exhaust this monitor is not Functional and the Compensatory Measures are also not effective. The turbine building is a conventional steel structure so leakage of radioactive material could be significant. Under these conditions building ambient air samples, building equipment status including potential radioactivity sources, and meteorological data can be used to estimate the out-leakage from the building.

5. Radwaste Building Ventilation Exhaust Radiation Monitor This monitoring system measures radioactivity in the radwaste building ventilation air exhaust. Radioactivity originates from radwaste tank vents, processing equipment, sampling hoods, as well as from process treatment systems within the building. The purpose of this monitoring subsystem is to characterize the radioactivity being released through radwaste building discharge vent and to provide alarms in the event of abnormal operation. The monitor is read and recorded in the main control room. An alarm is provided in the control room if the setpoint is exceeded.

A continuous sample is extracted from the exhaust duct, through a multi-ported isokinetic probe. The sample is filtered to collect particulates and passes through an impregnated charcoal cartridge to collect iodine.

These samples are collected and analyzed per SR 6.2.2.1.2 and Table 6.2.2.1-1.

Further information on this subsystem can be found in Reference 14.

Footnote (b) of Table 6.1.2-1 is intended to address the condition when the Radwaste Building Ventilation System is not operating. If there is no flow through the radwaste building exhaust this monitor is not Functional and the Compensatory Measures are also not effective. Under these conditions building ambient air samples, building equipment status including potential radioactive sources, and meteorological data can be used to estimate the out-leakage from the building.

6. Alarm/Trip Setpoints The Function 1 monitors are normally operated in the mode where they are monitoring the output of the gaseous effluent stream from the charcoal beds. Under these conditions a High-High-High Radiation signal from both monitors initiates closure of OG-V-60 terminating the effluent Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.2-4 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued) release. The setpoints are established to assure the valve will be closed before the site boundary dose rate criteria is exceeded. A downscale trip of both monitors or a combination of downscale trip and High-High-High radiation will also cause isolation of the effluent release. The Function 1 monitors can also be operated in the mode where the charcoal beds are being bypassed. In this case a High radiation trip from either monitor will cause closure of the bypass valve, OG-V-45. Prior to placing the gaseous radwaste treatment system in the charcoal bypass mode, the alarm setpoints on the main plant vent release monitor shall be set to account for the increased percentages of short-lived noble gases. Noble gas percentages shall be based either on actual measured values or on primary coolant design base noble gas concentration percentages adjusted for 30-minute decay. ODCM Table 3-15, Design Base Percent Noble Gas (30-minute Decay), lists the percentage values for 30-minute decay.

The setpoint for this action is well below the site boundary dose rate criteria. Control room alarms are provided for a downscale condition, High Radiation, and High-High-High Radiation.

The Function 2, High Radiation alarm setpoint is required to be set at 1.5 times the steady state full power nominal radiation level per Reference 15. This provides assurance that the control room will be aware of increasing radiation levels in the untreated gaseous effluent stream from the main condenser. A second High-High Radiation alarm is provided giving the control room indication if the level continues to rise.

The Function 2a, 3a, 4a, and 5a monitors have their setpoints established in a manner that assures the instantaneous dose rate limits to the unrestricted area are less than the limits given in RFO 6.2.2.1. ODCM Section 3.4 provides the methodology for establishing these setpoints.

The calculations take into account the partition of the limiting dose rate between the three release points. The maximum normalized diffusion coefficient (X/Q) at and beyond the site boundary is used to model the decrease in radionuclide concentration between the point of release and the receptor location. Both whole body and skin dose setpoints are calculated and the lower setpoint is used for the instrument. The dose rate limits are provided in Reference 2.

Functions 3b, 3c, 4b, 4c, 5b, and 5c do not have established setpoints.

These functions collect iodine and particulate samples for further analysis and no setpoints are associated with these activities. It is not considered to be practicable to apply instantaneous alarm/trip setpoints to integrating radiation monitors sensitive to radioiodines or radioactive materials in particulate form.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.2-5 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued)

Functions 3d, 4d, and 5d are associated with the flow rate of effluent from the three buildings. Design ventilation rates are given in Reference 16.

These setpoints are established to provide the plant operators with an alarm indicating abnormal flow conditions.

Functions 3e, 4e, and 5e are associated with flow rate in the iodine and particulate sampling devices. The flow through these filters must be maintained to obtain a representative sample. Setpoints are established to provide plant operators with an alarm if the sample flow fails to register the required value.

Further guidance on setpoint determination can be found in Reference 4.

APPLICABILITY The Main Condenser Offgas Post-Treatment and Pre-Treatment Monitors are required to be Functional when the Steam Jet Air Ejectors are put into operation. Prior to this time condenser offgas is exhausted by the mechanical vacuum pump. The Mechanical Vacuum Pump Radiation Monitor is required to be Functional when the mechanical vacuum pumps are being used to create and maintain a condenser vacuum and there is a potential for radioactive release from the condenser area. During startup and shutdown when vacuum is being maintained with a mechanical vacuum pump and the Steam Seal System is operational the Mechanical Vacuum Pump Radiation Monitor must be Functional.

All other instruments are required to be Functional when there is exhaust flow through the building exhaust vent. If there is no flow through the exhaust, the monitors do not provide any useful information. In this case footnote (b) of Table 6.1.2-1 shall be followed to prevent an unmonitored release condition.

Separate entry is allowed for each channel. The note allows a Condition to be entered separately for each nonfunctional instrument and completion times tracked on a per instrument basis.

COMPENSATORY A.1 and B.1 MEASURES This Compensatory Measure gives the action required if the Mechanical Vacuum Pump Radiation Monitor is not Functional when it is required.

The Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Radiation Monitor monitors the effluent pumped from the condenser by the mechanical vacuum pump. If the Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Radiation Monitor is Functional, this provides adequate assurance that potential releases will be monitored. If this monitor is nonfunctional, then sampling is required.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.2-6 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES COMPENSATORY MEASURES (continued)

A.1, C.1, C.2, C.3, and G.1 The Compensatory Measures give the actions required to be taken if the Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Low Range Activity Monitor, the Turbine Building Ventilation Exhaust Noble Gas Activity Monitors, or the Radwaste Building Ventilation Exhaust Noble Gas Activity Monitors are nonfunctional. A grab sample must be taken at the associated sample location within 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> and every 8 hours9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> thereafter.

The grab sample must be analyzed for noble gas gamma emitters within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after the sample is taken. This sampling and analysis provides adequate assurance that the noble gases being released are characterized. If the channel is not restored to Functional status in 30 days, the event must be reported to the NRC in the calendar year Radioactive Effluent Release Report. This allows the NRC to monitor equipment that has been nonfunctional for an extended time period.

A.1, D.1, D.2, and G.1 These Compensatory Measures are required to be taken if the Effluent Flow Rate Monitors in the Reactor Building Elevated Discharge, the turbine building ventilation exhaust, or the radwaste building ventilation exhaust are nonfunctional. An estimate of the flow rate from the associated building is required every 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />. An estimate of the flow can be obtained by noting the number of fans in operation.

These same Compensatory Measures are also required to be taken if associated building Iodine and Particulate Sampler Flow Rate Monitors are nonfunctional. Sample line flow rates are needed to determine the concentration (activity in a given volume of air) of radioactive material in gaseous effluents. The flow rate at each release point is necessary to determine the total activity of radioactive material released in a given time period. There is flexibility in the method by which these estimates can be made for the purpose of obtaining best-available estimates. For example, if a flow rate or alarm signal is not being received at the control room, but the installed, calibrated, mechanical flow rate device is working properly, the best-available estimate would come from the mechanical flow rate device as opposed to using auxiliary sampling equipment. On the other hand, if the local flow rate indication is electronic, as is the case with the reactor building sample flow rate, and out of service, then auxiliary flow rate instruments may be used. The operation of the sampling equipment and sample flow is recorded every 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.2-7 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES COMPENSATORY MEASURES (continued)

If any flow related channel above is not restored to Functional status in 30 days the event must be reported to the NRC in the calendar year Radioactive Effluent Release Report. This allows the NRC to monitor equipment that has been nonfunctional for an extended time period.

A.1, E.1.1, E.1.2, E.2, and G.1 These Compensatory Measures are required to be taken if the iodine and particulate samplers associated with the reactor building elevated discharge, the turbine building ventilation exhaust, or the radwaste building ventilation exhaust are nonfunctional. Auxiliary sampling equipment is used to collect samples from the associated effluent release pathway within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />. This auxiliary sampler is to be used continuously to provide a sample for later analysis.

Compensatory Measure E.1.2 can be used if auxiliary sampling is not available. Relevant information should be collected to characterize the particulate and iodine effluent releases during the period of time the auxiliary sampling equipment was not available when required by Compensatory Measure E.1.1. If Compensatory Measure E.1.2 is used this must be reported to the NRC upon submittal of the current calendar year Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

A.1, F.1, F.2, F.3 and G.1 These Compensatory Measures are required to be taken if a Main Condenser Offgas Post-Treatment Radiation Monitor is nonfunctional.

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES COMPENSATORY MEASURES (continued)

If the channel is not restored to Functional status in 30 days, the event must be reported to the NRC in the calendar year Radioactive Effluent Release Report. This allows the NRC to monitor equipment that has been nonfunctional for an extended time period.

A.1, H.1, H.2, H.3 and I.1 If the normal sampling equipment is not restored to Functional status in 30 days the event must be reported to the NRC in the calendar year Radioactive Effluent Release Report. This allows the NRC to monitor equipment that has been nonfunctional for an extended time period.

These Compensatory Measures are associated with the Main Condenser Offgas Pre-Treatment Radiation Monitor. If this monitor is nonfunctional immediate action must be taken to verify the Offgas Treatment System (RECHAR) is in operation. To maintain continuous monitoring, within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> place a temporary Area Radiation Monitor (ARM) to monitor pre-treatment radiation levels and verify the operation of the ARM every 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br />.

Efforts must be made to restore the Main Condenser Offgas Pre-Treatment Radiation Monitor to Functional status in 30 days. If this is not done, the plant must be in Hot Shutdown within the following 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.

Plant shutdown is required because continuous monitoring of the pre-treatment radiation level provides a direct indication of the condition of the reactor fuel. Continued power operation beyond 30 days is not allowed.

SURVEILLANCE SR 6.1.2.1 REQUIREMENTS A CHANNEL CHECK is required every 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> for the radiation monitoring systems and flow rate monitors.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.2-9 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

SR 6.1.2.2 A daily Source Check is required for the Main Condenser Offgas Post-Treatment Radiation Monitors. This provides increased confidence that the instruments will operate as required to detect excess radioactivity in the treated gas process stream. This test is required whenever the steam jet air ejectors are in operation.

SR 6.1.2.3 A CHANNEL CHECK for the iodine and particulate samplers is required weekly. The change-out of the filters is considered the equivalent of a CHANNEL CHECK. The weekly check of sampler operation is sufficient to provide assurance of a quality sample for analysis. This CHANNEL CHECK is required at all times.

SR 6.1.2.4 The monthly Source Check is required for the Main Condenser Offgas Pre-Treatment Monitor whenever the steam jet air ejectors are in operation. A monthly Source Check is also required for the Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Low Range Activity Monitor, the Turbine Building Ventilation Exhaust Noble Gas Activity Monitor, and the Radwaste Building Ventilation Exhaust Noble Gas Activity Monitor. The building effluent noble gas gamma monitors require a source check at all times. The monthly Source Check provides adequate assurance of channel Functionality.

SR 6.1.2.5 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST is required for all instruments except the iodine and particulate samplers and the Mechanical Vacuum Pump Discharge Radiation Monitor quarterly or every 92 days. This test frequency provides adequate assurance of the channel function. A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST is not required for the samplers as the routine analysis of the samples provides assurance of sample function.

The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST for the Main Condenser Offgas Post and Pre-Treatment Monitors, the Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Low Range Noble Gas Monitor require a demonstration that control room alarm annunciation occurs if:

a) the instrument indicates measured levels above the alarm setpoint, and Columbia Generating Station B 6.1.2-10 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued) b) circuit failure occurs.

The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST for the Turbine Building Ventilation Exhaust and Radwaste Building Ventilation Exhaust Noble Gas Monitors must demonstrate that circuit failures or instrument controls when set in the off position produce control room alarm annunciation. The CHANNEL FUNCTION TEST for the Radwaste Building Ventilation Exhaust Effluent System Flow Rate Monitor shall be performed by measurement of the phase currents for each fan.

SR 6.1.2.5a A CHANNEL CHECK of the Mechanical Vacuum Pump Radiation Monitor is required prior to its use. This check is required only if it has not been performed during the past 30 days. During shutdowns this check can be performed by verifying that the instrument was on-scale prior to shutdown.

SR 6.1.2.6 A CHANNEL CALIBRATION is required for all instruments except the iodine and particulate samplers, the Offgas Post Treatment Monitor, and the Mechanical Vacuum Pump Discharge Radiation Monitor every 18 months. This test frequency provides adequate protection against drift or other instrument inaccuracies. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION is not required for the samplers as the routine analysis of the samples provides assurance of sample integrity. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION of the Main Condenser Offgas Pre-Treatment Monitors, the Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Low Range Activity Monitor, and the Turbine and Radwaste Building Low Range Noble Gas Activity Monitors have special requirements. For these gross radioactivity monitors the initial CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall be performed using one or more reference standards traceable to the National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) or using standards that have been obtained from suppliers that participate in measurement assurance activities with NIST. These standards shall permit calibrating the system over its intended range of energy and monitor response. Subsequent CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall be performed using the equivalent quality and radioactive sources that have been related to the initial calibration. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the Radwaste Building Ventilation Effluent System Flow Rate Monitor shall be performed by using a flow measurement device to determine the fan current to flow relationship.

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation B 6.1.2 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

SR 6.1.2.7 The CHANNEL CALIBRATION for the Offgas Post Treatment Monitor and the Mechanical Vacuum Pump Discharge Radiation Monitor is required during refueling outages. This longer frequency is acceptable since this monitor is backed up by the Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Radiation Monitor. The initial calibration of the Offgas Post Treatment Monitor shall be performed using sufficient NIST traceable sources to permit calibrating the system over its intended range of energy and monitor response.

Subsequent CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall be performed using equivalent quality and radioactive sources that have been related to the primary calibration.

Liquid Concentration B 6.2.1.1 B 6.2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS B 6.2.1 Liquid Effluents B 6.2.1.1 Liquid Concentration BASES BACKGROUND This RFO is focused on the concentration of radionuclides released to the Columbia River. The radionuclide concentrations shall not exceed 10 times those given in Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 of Reference 1. The RFO also implements the requirements of Technical Specification 5.5.4.b.

APPLICABLE The radionuclide concentration limits provide assurance that any liquid SAFETY radioactive releases caused by normal operation and Anticipated ANALYSES Operational Transients result in very low exposures to the general public.

A hypothetical person using water at the outlet of the blowdown line at the RFO limits would receive a whole body dose of 500 mrem/year.

Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Reference 2) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased liquid effluent release concentrations. Further information on liquid radioactive releases can be found in Chapter 11 of the FSAR (Ref. 3). Reference 4 provides initial estimated isotopic annual releases of liquid effluent.

REQUIREMENTS This RFO provides assurance that the concentration of radioactive FOR OPERABILITY materials in bodies of water in Unrestricted Areas will result in exposures within the limits of 10 CFR 20.1302(b)(2)(i) of Reference 1. The concentration limit for dissolved or entrained noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radioisotope and its concentration in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in Reference 6.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable at all times since liquid effluents can be released at any time.

COMPENSATORY The concentration of radionuclides being released can be decreased by MEASURES decreasing the amount of activity being released or by increasing the dilution. The amount of radioactivity will decrease with time due to decay.

The recycling of water within the plant prior to release will, therefore, decrease the amount of activity available. The dilution of the waste can occur within the plant prior to release or during blowdown to the river.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.1.1-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Liquid Concentration B 6.2.1.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE This SR defines the radioactive liquid waste sampling and analysis REQUIREMENTS needed to determine the radionuclide concentrations in the effluent. This program meets the requirements of General Design Criteria 64 in Appendix A of Reference 5. It also uses the guidance provided in References 7 and 8.

Liquid Release Type At Columbia Generating Station batch releases are the only release type.

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 plant procedures to assure representative sampling. SR 6.2.1.1.1 requires a pre-release analyses of each batch release.

Sample and Analysis Frequency A sample is required to be taken prior to the release of each batch. This provides assurance of a representative sample of the radioactivity to be released. The samples must be analyzed prior to the release of each batch. This allows for a review of the results of the analysis prior to release. SR 6.2.1.1.2 requires a post-release analysis of samples composited from the batch releases. For tritium and gross alpha a composite sample is collected prior to the release of each batch. 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 that is representative of the liquids released. This may be accomplished through composites of grab samples obtained prior to discharge after the tanks have been recirculated. Every 31 days the composite sample made up of all the releases during the prior 31 days must be analyzed. If no releases are made during the previous 31 day period no analysis is required. This 31 day composite analysis for tritium and gross alpha is considered adequate to characterize the liquid release during this time period.

For Fe-55, Sr-89, and Sr-90 a composite sample is also required for each batch released. In this case the composite samples may be collected for 92 days prior to analysis. If no releases occur during the previous 92 day period no analysis is required.

Sample Lower Limit of Detection The LLD is defined in the definitions section of the ODCM Appendix. The principle gamma emitters for which the LLD definition applies in this RFO includes the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, and Ce-141. Ce-144 shall also be measured, but with an LLD of 5 E-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 Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

Liquid Dose B 6.2.1.2 B 6.2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS B 6.2.1 Liquid Effluents B 6.2.1.2 Liquid Dose BASES BACKGROUND This RFO requires a calculation of the dose resulting from the routine release of liquid radioactive effluents. It implements the requirements of Sections II.A, III.A, and IV.A of Appendix I of Reference 1. It should be noted that these RFO limits apply to a Member of the Public. The dose calculation models are, therefore, allowed to take into account dilution and other factors which decrease the dose between the point of release and the persons location.

APPLICABLE This dose calculation provides assurance that any liquid radioactive SAFETY releases caused by normal operation and Anticipated Operational ANALYSES Transients are evaluated to determine their impact on a Member of the Public. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 2) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased liquid effluent releases. The FSAR (Ref. 3) and the Columbia Generating Station Environmental Report (Ref. 4) calculate estimated annual exposure due to liquid effluent release. The estimated whole body dose of 2.3 mrem per year and the largest calculated single organ dose of 1.6 mrem per year to the bone are well below the guidelines of Appendix I of Reference 1.

REQUIREMENTS The dose calculation methodology and parameters in the ODCM FOR OPERABILITY implement the requirements of Section III.A of Appendix I of Reference 1.

Conformance with the guidance of Appendix I must be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that the actual exposure of the Member of the Public through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The equations specified in the ODCM for calculating the dose due to the actual release rates of radioactive materials in liquid effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in Reference 5 and Reference 6. For fresh water sites with drinking water supplies that can be potentially affected by plant operations, there is reasonable assurance that the operation of the facility will not result in radionuclide concentrations in the finished drinking water that are in excess of the requirements of Reference 7.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable when radioactive liquid effluents are released.

During the periods of time when no radioactive liquids are released this RFO is not applicable.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.1.2-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Liquid Dose B 6.2.1.2 BASES COMPENSATORY The general note is provided to implement the guidance in Reference 8.

MEASURES This NUREG states that as long as the calculated dose does not exceed twice the limits of this RFO no extra analysis is required to demonstrate compliance with RFO 6.2.3.1. If the dose levels exceed twice those cited in this RFO additional analysis must be performed to determine if additional limitations on plant operation will be necessary to ensure compliance with Reference 9.

The Compensatory Measures statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I of Reference 1 to ensure that the releases of radioactive material in liquid effluents to Unrestricted Areas will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable."

SURVEILLANCE This SR for this RFO requires a dose calculation every 31 days to REQUIREMENTS provide assurance that the radioactive liquid effluents released do not result in a dose above the limits stated. The dose to the whole body is calculated for the quarter and year prior to the date of the calculation.

The dose to each organ is calculated for the quarter and year prior to the date of the calculation. All calculated doses must be below the limits given in this RFO or the Compensatory Measures must be implemented.

When no liquid radioactive releases occur during the time period no new calculation is required since the RFO is not applicable.

Liquid Waste Management System B 6.2.1.3 B 6.2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS B 6.2.1 Liquid Effluents B 6.2.1.3 Liquid Waste Management System BASES BACKGROUND This RFO requires the Liquid Waste Management System to be Functional at all times. In addition it requires the Liquid Waste Management System to be in service whenever the projected dose calculated prior to release indicates a value above the limit given in the RFO. The requirement that the appropriate portions of this system be used, when specified, provides assurance that the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluent will be kept as low as is reasonably achievable. This RFO implements the requirements of 10 CFR 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A and the design objective given in Section II.D of Appendix I to Reference 1. It also implements the requirements of Technical Specification Section 5.5.4.f. Further guidance on the implementation of the RFO is provided in References 2, 3, and 4.

APPLICABLE This RFO provides assurance that liquid radioactive releases caused by SAFETY normal operating and Anticipated Operational Transients are treated if ANALYSES they are above the given limits. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 5) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased liquid effluent releases.

REQUIREMENTS The Functionality of the Liquid Radioactive Waste Management FOR OPERABILITY System ensures that this system will be available for use whenever liquid effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment. The term "Liquid Waste Management System" involves all of the installed and available Liquid Radioactive Waste Management System equipment, as well as their controls, power, instrumentation, and services that make the system function. Equipment that is considered standby or redundant is also included, since their function is to assure Functionality. The RFO also permits alternate treatment paths using alternate subsystems and equipment to be used in the event that the normal treatment equipment is nonfunctional. Further information on the design bases, system description, and process description of the Liquid Waste Management System is given in Reference 6.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.1.3-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Liquid Waste Management System B 6.2.1.3 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued)

This RFO requires the Liquid Waste Management System to be in use when the projected doses due to the liquid effluent released to the Unrestricted Area would exceed 0.06 mrem to the whole body or 0.2 mrem to any organ in a 31 day period. Thus, the Liquid Waste Management System is required to be in use well before the limits of RFO 6.2.1.2 are reached as required by Section II.A of Appendix I to Reference 1. If the system is in use, radioactive liquid waste can be released up to the limits of RFO 6.2.1.2.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable at all times since the Liquid Waste Management System must be Functional at all times.

COMPENSATORY A Special Report to the NRC is required if the Liquid Waste Management MEASURES System is not Functional for more than 31 days, or if the system was not in use and the calculated dose values were found to be above those given in the RFO. This allows the NRC to be kept informed of any nonfunctional or unused equipment needed to reduce the dose and the corrective actions being taken to restore it to Functional status.

SURVEILLANCE SR 6.2.1.3.1 REQUIREMENTS To determine if use of the installed equipment is necessary, the cumulative liquid effluent releases over the ensuing 31 days must be projected. These releases should include all plant effluents from all Liquid Radioactive Waste Management and Liquid Waste Disposal System components that are planned to be operated. These releases should include a margin, based on operating data, for anticipated and unplanned operational occurrences. The ODCM methodology used to project the dose shall be the same as that used for SR 6.2.1.2.1. The impact of this projected cumulative release is to be compared to 0.06 mrem for the whole body and 0.2 mrem for any organ. If the projection indicates these values will be exceeded, then the installed Liquid Waste Management System components that will reduce these radioactive materials in the liquid effluent and their projected dose impact must be used.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.1.3-2 Amendment 50, May 2013

Liquid Waste Management System B 6.2.1.3 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

SR 6.2.1.3.2 The Liquid Waste Management System is considered Functional if the requirements of RFO 6.2.1.1, Liquid Concentration and RFO 6.2.1.2, Liquid Dose are met. RFO 6.2.1.1 limits the concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to Unrestricted Areas. These low concentration limits are an indicator of a properly functioning Liquid Waste Management System. In a similar manner, RFO 6.2.1.2 limits the dose from liquid effluents. A low dose from liquid effluents is an indication of a Functional Liquid Waste Management System.

Dose Rate B 6.2.2.1 B 6.2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS B 6.2.2 Gaseous Effluents B 6.2.2.1 Dose Rate BASES BACKGROUND This ODCM requirement for OPERABILITY (RFO) provides reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure to a Member of the Public in an Unrestricted Area either at or beyond the Site Boundary in excess of the design objectives of Appendix I to 10 CFR 50. This specification is provided to ensure that gaseous effluents from all units on the site will be appropriately controlled. It provides operational flexibility for releasing gaseous effluents to satisfy the Section II.A and II.C design objectives of Appendix I to 10 CFR 50. For Members of the Public who may at times be within the Site Boundary, the occupancy of that Member of the Public will 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, are provided in the ODCM. The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background, at or beyond the Site Boundary, to less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the whole body, or to less than or equal to 3000 mrem/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 mrem/year. This specification does not affect the requirement to comply with the annual limitations of 10 CFR 20.1301(a).

APPLICABLE The gaseous effluent dose rate limits provide assurance that any SAFETY gaseous effluent releases caused by normal operation and Anticipated ANALYSES Operational Transients result in very low exposures to the general public.

A hypothetical person living at or beyond the Site Boundary would receive a whole body dose of 500 mrem/year. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 2) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased gaseous effluent dose rates. Further information on gaseous radioactive releases can be found in Chapter 11 of the FSAR (Ref. 3).

Estimated gaseous releases from the plant are given in Reference 4.

REQUIREMENTS This RFO provides the dose rate limits for gaseous radioactive FOR OPERABILITY materials released from the plant.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable at all times since gaseous effluents can be released at any time.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.2.1-1 Amendment 51, December 2013

Dose Rate B 6.2.2.1 BASES COMPENSATORY The dose rate resulting from the release of gaseous radionuclides can be MEASURES decreased by decreasing the amount of radioactivity being released. The amount of radioactivity will decrease with time due to decay. The use of the charcoal beds greatly decreases the iodine and particulates released and will delay the release of noble gases. This will decrease the amount of activity available for release. Other actions that would result in a decreased source of radioactivity should be considered. The Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System can be used to decrease the amount of radioactivity released.

SURVEILLANCE These surveillance requirements define the radioactive gaseous waste REQUIREMENTS sampling and analysis needed to determine the radionuclide concentrations and dose rates in the effluent. This program meets the requirements of General Design Criteria 64 in Appendix A of Reference 5.

It also conforms to the References 6 and 7.

Table 6.2.2.1-1 defines the radioactive gaseous waste sampling and analysis program. The table is divided into four sections: 1) those sampling and analysis requirements that are required to be in place at the plant at all times, 2) those requirements applicable during Purge and Vent operations, 3) additional sampling and analysis required during startup and shutdown, and 4) additional requirements that must be followed during significant reactor power changes.

Radioactive Gaseous Sampling and Analysis Required at All Times (Table 6.2.2.1-1, Part 1)

A primary containment grab sample for tritium is required to be taken and analyzed every 31 days. This analysis provides information on any releases that might be occurring within the primary containment structure.

The 31 day sampling period is sufficient to identify trends during power operation. Footnote (a) recognizes the plant configuration when the primary containment is open and the reactor building becomes the primary confinement space. In this case the grab sampling being done at the reactor building elevated discharge is representative of all space inside the reactor building including primary containment.

A reactor building elevated discharge grab sample for tritium is required every seven days. This analysis determines the tritium release in the ventilation exhaust from the spent fuel pool area. It is required whenever spent fuel is in the fuel pool.

A reactor building elevated discharge noble gas grab sample and analysis for gamma emitters is required every 31 days. The principal gamma emitters for noble gas effluents are defined under the LLD discussion in Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.2.1-2 Amendment 50, May 2013

Dose Rate B 6.2.2.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued) this bases. This analysis identifies the gamma emitters in the gaseous effluent stream that are needed to perform the dose rate calculations. A 31 day sampling and analysis period is sufficient to characterize this release.

Turbine and radwaste building vent noble gas and tritium grab samples and analysis for principal gamma emitters and tritium are required every 31 days. The principal gamma emitters for noble gas effluents are defined under the LLD discussion in this bases. This analysis identifies the gamma emitters and tritium in the gaseous effluent stream that is needed to perform the dose rate calculations. The tritium analysis provides information on the trend of steam leaks in these two areas. A 31 day analysis period is sufficient to characterize this release.

Continuous charcoal filter samples are collected from all three building vent gaseous effluent streams. Every seven days the charcoal filters are to be removed and analyzed. This analysis provides information on the halogen (iodine) isotopes being released from the plant and is used to calculate the halogen dose rate due to gaseous effluents.

Continuous particulate filter samples are collected from all three building vent gaseous effluent streams. Every seven days these particulate filters are removed and analyzed. This analysis provides information on the gamma emitters collected in the sample.

A composite of the continuous particulate filter sample is collected from all building vents. Every 31 days these samples are totalized for gross alpha. Every 92 days these composite samples are analyzed for strontium. These analyses provide information on possible trends in fuel performance.

The noble gas monitor provides a continuous record of noble gas release from the plant. The gross gamma and beta count rates along with the periodic grab samples are used to characterize the noble gas release and calculate the dose rate.

Footnote (b) of Table 6.2.2.1-1, Part 1, notes the importance of the ratio of sample flow rate to the sampled effluent stream flow. This provides one of several values needed for estimating the dose rate.

Dose Rate B 6.2.2.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

Radioactive Gaseous Sampling and Analysis Required During Purge or Vent (Table 6.2.2.1-1, Part 2)

Primary containment grab sampling and analysis is not required if a Vent release (by the two inch exhaust lines) is through the Standby Gas Treatment System and the noble gas monitors in containment are reading below their setpoint as stated in footnote (d). Under these conditions, grab sampling is not required as the gaseous effluent will be released at a slow rate, will be filtered, and will be measured by the reactor building elevated discharge noble gas, iodine, and particulate monitors. Additional requirements on Venting and Purging are found in RFO 6.2.2.6.

During other Purge or Vent conditions, primary containment noble gas, iodine, and particulate grab samples are required prior to each Purge or Vent. The sample must be taken no more than eight hours before the Purge or Vent. The sample must be analyzed for gamma emitters prior to the Purge or Vent. This analysis determines the status of radioactivity in the primary containment atmosphere prior to the release.

If the Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Low Range Radiation Monitor is not Functional, sampling and analysis of the containment shall be completed at least once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> during Purge and Vent. With a nonfunctional Reactor Building Elevated Discharge Low Range Radiation Monitor this additional sampling provides additional data to characterize the release from containment. This additional sampling is required for a Vent release through the Standby Gas Treatment System even when the noble gas monitors in containment are reading below their setpoint if the Vent exceeds 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.

Radioactive Gaseous Sampling and Analysis Required During Startup and Shutdown (Table 6.2.2.1-1, Part 3)

Noble gas, iodine, and particulate grab samples are required from the primary containment and the reactor building following startup and shutdown. These grab samples are analyzed for gamma emitters to provide information about any changes in gaseous activity during large power changes. Grab samples in the reactor building vent are normally taken during startup following the start of the steam jet air ejectors and shutdown of the mechanical vacuum pump. During shutdown, reactor building vent samples are taken after the steam jet air ejector is turned off and transition is made to the mechanical vacuum pump. Taking grab samples at this time allows a better definition of the radioactivity being released during this transition.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.2.1-4 Amendment 50, May 2013

Dose Rate B 6.2.2.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued)

Additional steps must be taken during startup and shutdown to determine if additional sampling is required. The first step is taken between two to six hours after the beginning of a startup or shutdown. At this point, the DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 concentration in the primary coolant is evaluated. If it is less than 1.0E-03 µCi/cc, or if it is above 1.0E-03 µCi/cc but has not changed more than a factor of three, additional sampling is not required because of high iodine concentration in the primary coolant.

The low concentration or lack of change of concentration in the primary coolant is an indication of stable fuel performance that does not require additional effluent sampling.

The second step to determine if additional sampling is required involves the building vent Noble Gas Monitors. If all of the building vent monitors are less than or equal to two percent of their setpoint, or if they are greater than two percent of the setpoint but have not increased more than a factor of three, then additional tests are not required. A high and changing noble gas radioactivity reading from the building monitors during startup or shutdown operation could be an indication of an unusual condition within that building and additional sampling is required.

If the high and changing primary coolant radioactivity, or high and changing building vent activity, triggers additional testing, filters shall be removed from the continuous sampler at least once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. This additional sampling must take place for at least seven days following shutdown or startup. The 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 /> of filter removal. 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 LLDs may be increased by a factor of 10. Once this condition is entered it must be followed to completion for the seven day time period even if the primary coolant or building vent radioactivity levels decrease below the trigger point.

Footnote (b) of Table 6.2.2.1-1, Part 3, notes the importance of the ratio of sample flow rate to the sampled effluent stream flow. This provides one of several values needed for estimating the dose rate.

Radioactive Gaseous Sampling and Analysis Required During Reactor Power Changes (Table 6.2.2.1-1, Part 4)

Following THERMAL POWER changes exceeding 15% of RATED THERMAL POWER within a 1-hour period a determination must be made to see if radioactive grab sampling is required from the containment and reactor building elevated discharge. If the Main Condenser Offgas Pre-treatment Monitor is indicating less than or equal to 15,000 µCi/sec, no Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.2.1-5 Amendment 50, May 2013

Dose Rate B 6.2.2.1 BASES SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (continued) sampling is required. To convert the pretreatment monitor reading from mr/hr to µCi/sec multiply the average monitor reading from OG-RR-604 in mr/hr by the Offgas System flow rate from OG-FR-620 in cfm. A low pre-treatment monitor reading is an indication of stable fuel performance during reactor power changes that does not require sampling. If the Main Condenser Offgas Pre-treatment Monitor is greater than 15,000 µCi/sec, noble gas, iodine, and particulate grab samples are required from the primary containment and the reactor building.

Additional steps must also be taken during reactor power changes to determine if additional continuous filter sampling is required. Between two to six hours after the beginning of a reactor power change, with the Offgas Pre-treatment Monitor greater than 15,000 µCi/sec, the DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 concentration in the primary coolant is evaluated. If it is less than the 1.0E-03 µCi/cc, or if it is above 1.0E-03 µCi/cc but has not changed more than a factor of three, additional sampling is not required because of high iodine concentration in the primary coolant. The low concentration, or lack of change of concentration in the primary coolant, is an indication of stable fuel performance that does not require additional effluent sampling.

The second step to determine if additional continuous filter sampling is required involves the building vent Noble Gas Monitors. If all of the building vent monitors are less than or equal to two percent of their setpoint, or if they are greater than two percent of the setpoint but have not increased more than a factor of three, then additional tests are not required. A high and changing noble gas radioactivity reading from the building monitors during startup or shutdown operation could be an indication of an unusual condition within that building and additional sampling is required. If the DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 concentration and the building vent monitors meet the criteria above, no additional continuous filter sampling is required, even if the Main Condenser Offgas Pre-treatment Monitor reading is greater than 15,000 µCi/sec.

However, a high and changing primary coolant radioactivity or high and changing building vent activity requires additional continuous filter testing.

Filters shall be removed from the continuous samplers in all building vents at least once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. This additional sampling must take place for at least seven days following THERMAL POWER changes as defined above. The 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 /> of filter removal. 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 LLDs may be increased by a factor of 10. Once this condition is entered it must be followed to completion for the seven day time period even if the primary coolant or building vent radioactivity levels decrease below the trigger point.

Footnote (b) of Table 6.2.2.1-1, Part 4, notes the importance of the ratio of sample flow rate to the sampled effluent stream flow. This provides one of several parameters needed for estimating the dose rate.

Sample Lower Limit of Detection The LLD is defined in the definitions section of the ODCM.

The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification applies in this RFO includes the following radionuclides: Kr-87, Kr-88, Xe-133, Xe-133m, Xe-135, and Xe-138 in noble gas releases and Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, I-131, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141, and Ce-144 in iodine and particulate releases. Other gamma peaks that are identifiable, together with those of the above nuclides, shall also be analyzed and reported in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

Dose - Noble Gases B 6.2.2.2 B 6.2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS B 6.2.2 Gaseous Effluents B 6.2.2.2 Dose - Noble Gases BASES BACKGROUND This ODCM Requirement for Operability (RFO) requires a calculation of the noble gas air dose resulting from gaseous effluent release. It implements the requirements of Sections II.B, III.A, and IV.A of Appendix I, of Reference 1. It also implements Technical Specification Sections 5.5.4.e and 5.5.4.h. These RFO limits apply at any location at or beyond the site boundary.

APPLICABLE This air dose calculation provides assurance that any gaseous noble gas SAFETY radioactive releases caused by normal operation and Anticipated ANALYSES Operational Transients are evaluated to determine their impact on a Member of the Public. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 2) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased gaseous effluent releases. The FSAR (Ref. 3) lists a number of events that result in steam being discharged to the suppression pool. The non-condensible noble gases present in this steam will migrate from the primary containment to the reactor building and be released through the reactor building elevated release vent. The Columbia Generation Station Environmental Report (Ref. 4) calculates the estimated annual exposure due to gaseous effluent release.

REQUIREMENTS The dose calculation methodology and parameters in the ODCM FOR OPERABILITY implement the requirements of Section III.A of Appendix I of Reference 1.

Conformance with the guidance of Appendix I must be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that the actual exposure at locations at or beyond the Site Boundary is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The equations specified in the ODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of noble gases in gaseous effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in References 5 and 6.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable at all times since gaseous effluents can be released at any time.

The dose is calculated for the quarter and year based on actual and projected effluents for the 31 day period being analyzed. All calculated doses must be below the limits given in this RFO or the Compensatory Measures must be implemented.

It implements the requirements of Sections II.C, III.A, and IV.A of Appendix I, of Reference 1. It also implements Technical Specification Sections 5.5.4.e and 5.5.4.i. These RFO limits apply to a Member of the Public. The dose calculation models are, therefore, allowed to take into account the additional diffusion and other source depletion between the point of release and locations occupied by individuals in the Unrestricted Area.

APPLICABLE This organ dose calculation provides assurance that any I-T-P radioactive SAFETY releases caused by normal operation and Anticipated Operational ANALYSES Transients are evaluated to determine their impact on a Member of the Public. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 2) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased I-T-P gaseous effluent releases.

The Columbia Generating Station Environmental Report (Ref. 3) calculates the estimated annual exposure due to gaseous effluent release. Gaseous Waste Management System radioactive releases are discussed in Reference 4.

REQUIREMENTS The dose calculation methodology and parameters in the ODCM FOR OPERABILITY implement the requirements of Section III.A of Appendix I of Reference 1.

Conformance with the guidance of Appendix I must 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 ODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of I-T-P in gaseous effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in References 5 and 6. The release rate specifications for I-T-P are dependent upon the existing radionuclide pathways to man in Unrestricted Areas. The pathways that were examined in the development of these 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.

GASEOUS OFFGAS TREATMENT SYSTEM B 6.2.2.4 B 6.2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS B 6.2.2 Gaseous Effluents B 6.2.2.4 Gaseous Offgas Treatment System BASES BACKGROUND This ODCM Requirement for Operability (RFO) requires the Gaseous Offgas Treatment System be available for use in either the normal or charcoal bypass mode of operation. The requirement that the appropriate portions of these systems be used, when specified, provides reasonable assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." This Requirement for Operability implements the requirements of 10 CFR 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A of Reference 1. It also implements the design objectives given in Section II.D of Appendix I of Reference 1 and Technical Specification Section 5.5.4.f. Further guidance on the implementation of this RFO is provided in References 2, 3, and 4.

A Gaseous Offgas Treatment System is defined as any system designed and installed to reduce radioactive gaseous effluents by collecting primary coolant system offgases from the primary system and providing for delay or holdup for the purpose of reducing the total radioactivity prior to release to the environment.

APPLICABLE This RFO provides assurance that gaseous radioactive releases from the SAFETY Main Condenser when the Steam Jet Air Ejectors are in service are ANALYSES monitored or processed. These radioactive releases occur as a result of normal operation or could be caused by Anticipated Operational Transients. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 5) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased gaseous effluent releases.

REQUIREMENTS The Functionality of the Gaseous Offgas Treatment System FOR OPERABILITY ensures that this system will be available for use whenever these gaseous effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment.

The term "Gaseous Offgas Treatment System" involves all of the installed and available gaseous radioactive waste management system equipment, as well as their controls, power, instrumentation, and services that make the system functional. Equipment that is considered standby or redundant is also included, since their function is to assure Functionality. The RFO also permits alternate treatment paths using alternate subsystems and equipment to be used in the event that the normal treatment equipment is nonfunctional. In the bypass mode of operation the Offgas Post-treatment Monitors must be operational and capable of automatically changing to normal mode of operation if their Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.2.4-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

BASES REQUIREMENTS setpoint is exceeded. Further information on the design bases, system FOR OPERABILITY description, and process description of the Gaseous Waste Management System is given in Reference 6.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable when the Main Condenser Steam Jet Air Ejector (evacuation) System is in operation. During plant startup, prior to the use of the Steam Jet Air Ejector, a Mechanical Vacuum Pump is used to remove air from the condenser.

COMPENSATORY The normal mode of operation of the Gaseous Offgas Treatment System MEASURES is with the charcoal beds in operation. This provides for the removal of most iodine and particulate radioactive isotopes and delays the release of noble gases. If the system is not being operated in the normal mode Compensatory Measure A.1 requires it to be placed in the normal mode in seven days.

If the required Compensatory Measure A.1 and the associated seven day completion time is not met a Special Report must be submitted to the NRC that identifies the required inoperable equipment and the reasons for the inoperability, corrective actions taken to restore the required nonfunctional equipment to Functional status, and the corrective actions to prevent recurrence.

The NRC requires the report once the Gaseous Offgas Treatment System is not in the normal mode of operation for more than seven days. The report must be completed 30 days after Condition B is entered.

SURVEILLANCE SR 6.2.2.4.1 REQUIREMENTS This surveillance provides verification of Gaseous Offgas Treatment System operation in either the normal mode or the bypass mode provided the Offgas Post-Treatment Radiation Monitor is Functional every seven days. The main purpose of this surveillance is to provide assurance that the system is being operated in the normal mode with the charcoal beds in service.

Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System B 6.2.2.5 B 6.2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS B 6.2.2 Gaseous Effluents B 6.2.2.5 Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System BASES BACKGROUND The Gaseous Waste Management System is designed to ensure that gaseous radioactive effluents are as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA). This ODCM Requirement for Operability (RFO) for the Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System is in accordance with the Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for BWRs (Refs. 1 and 2).

Examples of the Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System would include the following components: TG 441 Sample Hood Exhaust HEPA; Reactor Building Sump Vent Exhaust Filter System; CRD Rebuild Room Exhaust HEPA; Sampler and Analyzer Room 1A Exhaust HEPA; Radwaste Building Exhaust Ventilation HEPAs; and the Chemistry Lab Sample Hood Exhaust HEPA (Ref. 3). The system(s) appropriate for reducing the gaseous radioactive effluents must be in service if the projected 31 day organ dose is greater than 0.3 mrem. The determination of the appropriate system to be in service is based on the source of the gaseous radioactive effluent.

The Functionality of the Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System ensures that the system will be available for use whenever gaseous effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment. The requirement that the appropriate portions of this system be used, when specified, provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluent will be kept ALARA. This RFO implements the requirements of 10 CFR 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A, and the design objective given in Section II.D of Appendix I of Reference 4. The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the system were specified as a suitable fraction of the dose design objectives set forth in Sections II.B and II.C of Appendix I of Reference 4 for gaseous effluents.

APPLICABLE The Gaseous Waste Management System is designed to ensure that SAFETY gaseous radioactive effluents are ALARA. This RFO requires that ANALYSES the Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System be maintained Functional with the appropriate systems in service to provide assurance that gaseous radioactive releases caused by normal operation and Anticipated Operational Transients are treated. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 5) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased gaseous effluent releases.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.2.5-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System B 6.2.2.5 BASES REQUIREMENTS This RFO has two parts. The first requirement is for the system to be FOR OPERABILITY Functional and the second is for the system to be used. The Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System involves all of the installed and available system equipment, as well as their controls, power, instrumentation, and services that make the system functional.

The Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System to be used whenever the projected gaseous effluent 31 day organ dose is above 0.3 mrem. This dose is calculated for all gaseous releases from all buildings. The 0.3 mrem organ dose specified in this RFO is a fraction of the quarterly limit of RFO 6.2.2.3.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable at all times as the Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System may be required at any time.

COMPENSATORY If the Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System is not in service when the MEASURES projected 31 day organ dose is above 0.3 mrem a Special Report must be written to the NRC in the next 30 days. This 31 day organ dose calculation is required by SR 6.2.2.5.1 SURVEILLANCE SR 6.2.2.5.1 REQUIREMENTS This surveillance requires a projection of the 31 day organ dose every 31 days. This dose calculation is used to determine if the Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System must be used during that time period.

SR 6.2.2.5.2 The installed Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System shall be demonstrated to be Functional by complying with RFOs 6.2.2.1 and 6.2.2.3. These RFOs provide the dose and dose rate limits applicable to the iodine and particulate gaseous radioactive releases that the Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System is designed to treat.

Venting or Purging B 6.2.2.6 B 6.2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS B 6.2.2 Gaseous Effluents B 6.2.2.6 Venting or Purging BASES BACKGROUND This ODCM Requirement for Operability (RFO) provides assurance that releases from primary containment during Venting or Purging operations will be as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA). This RFO implements the requirement of Appendix I to Reference 1 and Technical Specification Section 5.5.4.k. A description of the Purge and Vent System is provided in Reference 2. Sampling requirements during Purge and Vent operation are given in RFO 6.2.2.1, Gaseous Effluents-Dose Rate.

APPLICABLE This RFO provides assurance that gaseous radioactive releases from the SAFETY containment caused by normal operation and Anticipated Operational ANALYSES Transients are filtered during the first 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of release. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 3) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased gaseous effluent releases to containment.

REQUIREMENTS This RFO provides three different conditions that must be considered FOR OPERABILITY during Venting and Purging. The first two state the requirements that must be met during the first 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of Venting and Purging operation when the Standby Gas Treatment (SGT) must be used to filter the releases from the Primary Containment. The SGT train(s) being used for filtration must be functional for filtration. SGT functionality as used in this RFO shall include the ability to accept the exhaust gases from primary containment, process the gases through the filtration unit, and discharge the gases to either the reactor building stack or the reactor building.

In Modes 1, 2, or 3, the SGT train not being used for filtration is required to be OPERABLE. The requirement to have the second train OPERABLE addresses the fact that when the 24-inch or 30-inch exhaust valves are used the in-service standby gas treatment system train used for filtration of the exhaust gases is inoperable. This is due to the potential for post-LOCA over-pressurization of that train. The over-pressurization could be caused by the postulated rapid pressurization of containment during LOCA conditions before the qualified containment isolation valves close.

This condition does not exist if the 2-inch valves are being used as the SGT and the valve closure are designed to maintain SGT integrity in response to post-LOCA pressurization. There are also control considerations that impact SGT operability. The train being used for filtration requires its SGT controller to be placed in the manual mode which makes that train inoperable since it cannot automatically perform its Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.2.6-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Venting or Purging B 6.2.2.6 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued) safety related function if required. The use of manual control is required to initiate all Venting and Purging configurations including the use of the 2-inch lines. The assurance of an OPERABLE second SGT train avoids the potential of having the plant enter LCO 3.0.3 as a result of two inoperable SGT trains.

In Mode 4 when Venting and Purging for deinerting, it is acceptable to have both standby gas treatment system trains in service supporting filtration for the first 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of any Venting and Purging operation. In Mode 4 there are no postulated accidents that could result in over-pressurization of the standby gas treatment system trains. However, if manual control is used for both SGT trains resulting in both trains being inoperable, Technical Specification LCO 3.6.4.3 is applicable. It requires suspension of OPDRVs.

Following the first 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of any Venting and Purging operation, filtration through SGT is no longer required. The potential for contamination of the primary containment atmosphere is highest during this initial time period.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable in MODES 1, 2, and 3 when Venting and Purging.

It is also applicable when deinerting the containment. This RFO is not applicable during primary containment depressurization following Type A testing required by Reference 4; however, during primary containment depressurization following Type A testing appropriate radioactive sampling shall be performed.

COMPENSATORY If RFO 6.2.2.6 is not met Venting and Purging of the containment MEASURES must be discontinued immediately.

SURVEILLANCE SR 6.2.2.6.1 REQUIREMENTS This surveillance requires verification that the containment Vent and Purge system is aligned in the correct manner. This verification is required no more than four hours before the start of Vent and Purge operations and every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> thereafter. This provides assurance that equipment will function in the manner intended.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.2.6-2 Amendment 50, May 2013

Total Dose B 6.2.3 B 6.2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS B 6.2.3 Total Dose BASES BACKGROUND This RFO is provided to ensure conformance to the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) radiation protection standard contained in Reference 1. In Reference 2 the NRC issued guidance on how the EPA standard is to be implemented and interfaced with its own regulations.

The NRC guidance states that compliance with the EPA regulations is assured if the calculated dose from liquid and gaseous effluents remains below twice the limits of Reference 3. This RFO implements this guidance.

APPLICABLE This dose calculation provides assurance that all radioactive releases SAFETY and direct radiation caused by normal operation and Anticipated ANALYSES Operational Transients are evaluated to determine their impact on a Member of the Public. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref.

4) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased effluent releases and direct radiation. The Columbia Generating Station Environmental Report (Ref. 5) provides estimated calculated annual doses for Columbia Generating Station.

REQUIREMENTS This RFO requires a calculation of the dose or dose commitment from FOR OPERABILITY all uranium fuel cycle sources. The method of calculation is given in the ODCM and uses the standard methodology required to satisfy the requirements of Reference 6. The dose is to be calculated for a Member of the Public in the Unrestricted Ares beyond the Site Boundary. This RFO adds the additional requirement that direct radiation must be added to the total dose. While the direct radiation from Turbine Building shine can be measurable at distances near the building it is not expected to be significant in the Unrestricted Ares beyond the Site Boundary. This calculation must also consider other direct radiation sources such as spent fuel storage facilities. A direct measurement of the direct radiation can be obtained from Environmental Monitoring devices.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable at all times since effluents can be released at any time.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.2.3-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Total Dose B 6.2.3 BASES COMPENSATORY This RFO is related to RFOs 6.2.1.2, (Dose-Liquid Effluent),

MEASURES 6.2.2.2, (Dose-Noble Gases), and 6.2.2.3, (Dose-I-T-P). Condition A is entered when the dose calculated by the surveillance requirements associated with any of these RFOs reaches twice the limit specified. The compensatory measure requires a calculation of the total dose including the contribution from direct radiation. The direct radiation calculation shall include the contribution from the plant, outside storage tanks, and any outside fuel storage facilities.

If the calculated total dose exceeds the limits of this RFO Compensatory Measure B.1 must be implemented. This requires a Special Report to the NRC within 30 days. The Special Report shall be submitted pursuant to Appendix I,Section IV.A of Reference 3. The Special Report shall define the corrective action to be taken to reduce subsequent releases to prevent recurrence of exceeding the RFO limits including a schedule for achieving conformance with the above limits. This Special Report must also conform to the requirements of 10 CFR 20.2203.A of Reference 7.

The special report shall include an analysis that estimates the radiation exposure (dose) to a Member of the Public from uranium fuel cycle sources including all effluent pathways and direct radiation within a radius of eight km, for the calendar year that includes release(s) covered by the report. 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. It shall also describe levels of radiation and concentrations of radioactive material involved, and the cause of the exposure levels or concentrations. If the estimated dose(s) exceeds the limits of this RFO, and if the release condition resulting in violation of Reference 1 has not already been corrected, the Special Report shall include a request for a variance in accordance with the provision of Reference 1. Submittal of the report is considered a timely request, and a variance is granted until staff action on the request is complete. The variance only relates to the limits of Reference 1, and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose limitation of References 3 and 7.

SURVEILLANCE This surveillance requires a determination of the dose or dose REQUIREMENTS commitment to any Member of the Public in the Unrestricted Area beyond the Site Boundary from liquid and gaseous effluents. This surveillance requirement is related to the surveillance requirements 6.2.1.2.1, (Dose-Liquid Effluent), 6.2.2.2.1, (Dose-Noble Gases), and 6.2.2.3.1, (Dose-I-T-P). When the calculated dose in these surveillances reach twice the limit specified it triggers a calculation of the total dose.

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program B 6.3.1 B 6.3 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING B 6.3.1 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program BASES BACKGROUND The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) required by this Requirement for Operability (RFO) provides representative measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in the environment near Columbia Generating Station. It includes all exposure pathways for those radionuclides that lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of members of the public resulting from the plant operation. This monitoring program implementsSection IV.B.2 of Appendix I of Reference 1 and thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and the modeling of the environmental exposure pathways. Guidance for this monitoring program is provided by Reference 2.

APPLICABLE The REMP provides assurance that radiation levels in the environment SAFETY caused by normal operation and Anticipated Operational Transients are ANALYSES evaluated to determine their impact on a Member of the Public.

Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 3) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing increased environmental impact.

REQUIREMENTS This RFO, through Table 6.3.1-1, specifies sample locations, analyses, FOR OPERABILITY and frequencies for several different exposure pathways. The RFO is a comprehensive radiological environmental surveillance program to assess the impact of plant operation on the environment. The results of this program are intended to supplement the results of the Radiological Effluent Monitoring Program. The REMP verifies that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are no higher than expected based on the effluent measurements and modeling of the exposure pathways. The program uses the guidance of References 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7. The following describes the environmental sampling categories of Table 6.3.1-1.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.3.1-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program B 6.3.1 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued)

Direct Radiation Pathway Thirty-four direct radiation monitoring stations are required. One or two of these are to serve as control stations located in area(s) not impacted by direct radiation from the plant. The other stations are to be located at various distances from the plant (as noted to Table 6.3.1-1) in order to obtain a representative measurement of possible direct radiation in the environment surrounding Columbia Generating Station. These measurements are normally made with thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLDs). However, one or more instruments, such as a pressurized ion chamber, for measuring and recording dose rate continuously may be used in place of, or in addition to, integrating dosimeters. For the purposes of Table 6.3.1-1, a TLD is considered to be one phosphor card with multiple readout areas; a phosphor card in a packet is considered to be equivalent to two or more dosimeters. Film badges shall not be used as dosimeters for measuring direct radiation. The frequency of analysis or readout for TLD systems will depend upon the characteristics of the specific system used and selected to obtain optimum dose information with minimal fading. TLDs are to meet the requirements of Reference 6 except for specified energy-dependence response.

Airborne Pathway-Particulate/Iodine Samples are required from six locations. One of these locations is to be a control location located in a direction not expected to be impacted by plant airborne effluents. The other five locations are to be indicator stations located in a direction that are most likely to be impacted by plant gaseous effluents. Samples are obtained through the use of constant flow-rate sampling units that collect both particulate and iodine samples.

Gross beta, gamma isotopic and radioiodine analysis are required.

Waterborne Pathway-Surface Water An upstream and a downstream sample are required. At Columbia Generating Station the upstream sample is considered the control sample. It is taken from the plant water intake which is located upstream of the plant discharge into the river. The downstream sample requirement allows for dilution in the mixing zone associated with the plant discharge line into the Columbia River. However, it is not feasible to Columbia Generating Station B 6.3.1-2 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program B 6.3.1 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued) perform flow-proportional composite sampling in the mixing zone area of the river downstream from the plant discharge point. Therefore, the downstream sample is taken from the plant discharge prior to river dilution. This provides a very conservative measurement. Gamma isotopic, gross beta, and tritium analyses are required for these samples.

Waterborne Pathway-Ground Water Groundwater samples from one or two sources are required when the source is tapped for drinking or irrigation purposes in areas where the hydraulic gradient or recharge properties are suitable for contamination.

At Columbia Generating Station the deep well just north of the Reactor Building is sampled as it is a backup source of drinking water at the plant.

Two wells at WNP-1 that provide drinking water for that site are also sampled. Gamma isotopic and tritium analysis are required.

Waterborne Pathway-Drinking Water One sample is required of each of one to three of the nearest water supplies that could be affected. A sample is also required from a control location. The primary indicator station for drinking water is the City of Richland Water Treatment Plant that obtains its drinking water from the Columbia River. The control location is the plant intake water sampler that provides a sample of the Columbia River water upstream of the discharge line. Gross beta, gamma isotopic, and tritium analysis is required periodically. If the calculated dose from the consumption of water is greater than 1 mrem per year I-131 analysis is also performed.

Waterborne Pathway - Sediment From Shoreline One sample is required from a downstream area with existing or potential recreational value. This sample is collected approximately one mile downstream from the plant effluent line. Gamma isotopic analysis is required of this sample.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.3.1-3 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program B 6.3.1 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued)

Ingestion-Milk Samples are required from milking animals in three locations within five kilometers having the highest dose potential. At Columbia Generating Station there are no milking animals at this distance as the area inside a five kilometer radius is all on the Hanford Site. In this case, a sample is required from milking animals in each of three areas between five and 16 kilometers distant where doses are calculated to be greater than one mrem per year to the maximum organ and age group. Even at this distance, the availability of samples is limited and may not be available at all times. A sample from milking animals is also required at a control location, 30-50 kilometers distant and in the least prevalent wind direction. Indicator samples are obtained from cattle across the Columbia River in Franklin County. The control sample is obtained from the Sunnyside/Grandview area. However, it is sometimes difficult to obtain a control sample because most of the cattle in this area use feed from the area east of the plant. This invalidates this milk as a control sample.

Gamma isotopic and I-131 analysis are required. In addition, if Cs-134 or Cs-137 is measured in an individual milk sample in excess of 30 pCi/liter, then Sr-90 analysis shall be performed.

Ingestion-Fish One sample of each of three recreationally important species (one anadromous and two resident) is required from the vicinity of the plant discharge. A control sample, of the same three species is required from an area not influenced by the plant discharge. Resident samples are taken from the vicinity of the plant discharge. Anadromous species are obtained from the Ringold Fish Hatchery. Control samples for resident fish are collected from the Snake River.

Anadromous control samples are obtained from the Lyons Ferry Fish Hatchery on the Snake River. Gamma isotopic analysis is required on the edible portions.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.3.1-4 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program B 6.3.1 BASES REQUIREMENTS FOR OPERABILITY (continued)

Ingestion-Food Products One sample of each principal class of food products is required from any area that is irrigated by water in which liquid plant wastes have been discharged. In addition samples of three different kinds of broad leaf vegetation grown nearest each of two different offsite locations of highest predicted annual average ground-level D/Q are required if milk sampling is not performed. A control sample of broad leaf vegetation grown 30-50 kilometers in the least prevalent wind direction if milk sampling is not performed is also required. Garden produce is routinely obtained from farms or gardens using Columbia River water for irrigation. One sample of a root crop, leafy vegetable, and a fruit should be collected each sample period if available. Gamma isotopic analysis is required for all samples. In addition, broad leaf vegetation requires an I-131 analysis if milk sampling is not performed.

APPLICABILITY This RFO is applicable at all times since effluents can be released at any time.

COMPENSATORY Required Compensatory Measure A.1 requires any deviations from the MEASURES program to be reported in the next annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report. This allows the NRC to be aware of any samples not collected and analyzed in compliance with the program detailed in Table 6.3.1-1.

The Condition B note allows separate condition entry for each milk and fresh leafy vegetable sample. If one or more of the milk and leafy vegetable samples are unavailable, a location for replacement samples must be identified within 30 days. The new sample locations along with revised tables and figures must be submitted in the next Radiological Environmental Operating Report. The NRC considers the sampling of milk and fresh leafy vegetables important and thus requires replacement sample locations to be identified within 30 days.

The Condition C note allows separate condition entry for each sample.

The first condition involves the detection of the concentration of any single radionuclide in the environment exceeding the value given in Table 6.3.1-2. The concentrations given approximate the dose levels allowed by Appendix I of Reference 1. The detection of this level of radioactivity in the environment requires a Special Report to the NRC within 30 days. If more than one radionuclide is detected, the concentration level that requires a report is decreased. The formula given in the footnote of Table 6.3.1-2 requires a report whenever the sum of the detected concentrations divided by the concentration limits is greater Columbia Generating Station B 6.3.1-5 Amendment 50, May 2013

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program B 6.3.1 BASES COMPENSATORY MEASURES (continued) than one. The Special Report must describe the corrective actions being taken to reduce the dose below those given in the Appendix I of Reference 1 (RFOs 6.2.1.2, 6.2.2.2, and 6.2.2.3). The methodology and parameters used to estimate the potential annual dose to a member of the public shall be indicated in this report.

Condition D involves the detection of radionuclides other than those listed on Table 6.3.1-2. If these radionuclides are detected, a dose calculation is required to determine the annual dose that would result if this concentration were present in the environment for a year. If the dose is equal to or greater than the limits given by RFOs 6.2.1.2, 6.2.2.2, or 6.2.2.3, the condition is reportable unless it can be shown that the radionuclides were not the result of Columbia Generating Station operation. The Special Report must state the corrective actions being taken to reduce the dose below the limits and must be written in 30 days.

The NRC requires timely information on unexpected radionuclides in the environment. The detection of these non-Table 6.3.1.-2 radionuclides must also be reported in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report. In this report, the detection of any non-Table 6.3.1-2 radionuclides regardless of the calculated dose and source of the radiation is to be reported. The methodology and parameters used to estimate the potential annual dose to a member of the public shall be indicated in this report.

SURVEILLANCE This surveillance requires sampling and analysis presented in REQUIREMENTS Table 6.3.1-1 be performed to verify all environmental radiological conditions are within limits. All sampling and analysis is to be performed according to the frequency given in the Table.

The detection capabilities for the analysis are given in Table 6.3.1-3. The required detection capabilities for environmental sample analyses are tabulated in terms of the Lower Limits of Detection (LLDs). The LLDs required by Table 6.3.1-3 are considered optimum for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories. It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an a posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement. The formula to be used for LLD is given in the definition section of this ODCM Appendix. Detailed discussions of the LLD and other detections limits can be found in References 8, 9, and 10.

Land Use Census B 6.3.2 B 6.3 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING B 6.3.2 Land Use Census BASES BACKGROUND The Land Use Census required by this RFO provides assurance that changes in the use of land in the unrestricted area are identified and that modifications to the radiological environmental monitoring program are made, if required, by the results of this census. The best information from a door-to-door survey, from an aerial survey or from consulting with local agricultural authorities shall be used. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appendix I of Reference 1. Guidance for the Land Use Census is provided by Reference 2.

APPLICABLE This Land Use Census provides assurance that changing conditions in SAFETY the environment surrounding Columbia Generating Station are identified.

ANALYSES This allows more accurate evaluation of the impact of radionuclide releases caused by normal operation and Anticipated Operational Transients. Chapter 15, Accident Analysis, of the FSAR (Ref. 3) analyzes a number of anticipated process disturbances and component failures that have the potential of causing measurable environmental impact.

REQUIREMENTS This RFO provides for a periodic update of the location of the nearest FOR OPERABILITY milk animal, residence, and garden greater than 500 square feet. At Columbia Generating Station the closest residence is across the Columbia River at a distance of approximately four miles. Because of the restrictions of the Hanford Site, the only land use area that has the potential for milk animals, residences, or gardens within five miles is a narrow strip of land just east of the Columbia River. However, the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program evaluates land use beyond the five mile limit. Restricting the census to gardens of greater than 500 square feet provides assurance that significant exposure pathways via leafy vegetables will be identified and monitored since a garden of this size is the minimum required to produce the quantity (26 kg/year) of leafy vegetables assumed in Reference 4 for consumption by a child. To determine this minimum garden size, the following assumptions were made:

a) 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegetation (i.e., similar to lettuce and cabbage) and b) a vegetation yield of two kg/m2.

APPLICABILITY The RFO is applicable at all times.

Columbia Generating Station B 6.3.2-1 Amendment 50, May 2013

Land Use Census B 6.3.2 BASES COMPENSATORY If a Land Use Census is not conducted or if all required locations are not MEASURES identified Compensatory Measure A.1 requires this condition to be reported in the next Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

Condition B requires notification in the next submission of the Radioactive Effluent Release Report if the new Land Use Census identifies a new location of a milk animal, residence, or garden greater than 500 square feet and the calculated dose of dose commitment at this new location is greater than that calculated by the current census at the current locations.

Condition C is an escalation of Condition B. It occurs if one of the newly identified census locations has a calculated dose greater than 120 percent of the dose from the current locations via the same exposure pathway. In this case the new location must be added to the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program within 30 days. The compensatory measures also state that the sample location having the lowest calculated dose can be deleted from the Radiological Monitoring Program after October 31 of the year the newly discovered location was found. In addition, the NRC is to be notified in the next Effluent Release Report.

This notification must include a revised figure(s) and table for the ODCM reflecting the new location(s).

The Compensatory Measures associated with Conditions B and C are structured to assure action is taken to evaluate and implement the results of the Land Use Census.

SURVEILLANCE This surveillance requires a Land Use Census to be conducted every REQUIREMENTS year. The results of the Land Use Census are to be included in the annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

Interlaboratory Comparison Program B 6.3.3 B 6.3 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING B 6.3.3 Interlaboratory Comparison Program BASES BACKGROUND The requirement for participation in an approved Interlaboratory Comparison Program is provided to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental sample matrices are performed. This comparison is part of the quality assurance program for environmental monitoring to demonstrate that the sampling results are valid for the purposes of Section IV.B.2 of Appendix I of Reference 1.

APPLICABLE This Interlaboratory Comparison Program contributes to safety by SAFETY providing assurance that environmental sampling will be accurate and ANALYSES precise. This allows more accurate evaluation of the impact of radionuclide releases caused by normal operation and Anticipated Operational Transients.

REQUIREMENTS The Interlaboratory Comparison Program is a major component of the FOR OPERABILITY quality assurance program for the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. It involves the comparison of Columbia Generating Station analytical results obtained and compared to samples containing known concentrations of various radionuclides. The program participates in the Environmental Measurements Laboratory (EML) intercomparison program. It also participates in local and regional intercomparison studies.

APPLICABILITY The RFO is applicable at all times.

COMPENSATORY Failures associated with the Interlaboratory Comparison Program must be MEASURES reported to the NRC in the next Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

SURVEILLANCE This surveillance requires analysis of radioactive material REQUIREMENTS supplied as part of the Interlaboratory Comparison Program.
