SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT PAGE 2 McGUIRE NUCLEAR STATION The estimated percentage of error for both Liquid and Gaseous effluent release data at McGuire Nuclear Station has been determined to be +/- 25.2%. This value was derived by taking the square root of the sum of the squares of the following discrete individual estimates of error:

(1) Flow rate determining devices = +/- 20%

(2) Counting error - -15%

(3) Sample preparation error = +-3%

Liquid Effluents - Concentration 16.11.1 TABLE 16.11.1-1 (Page 2 of 3)

NOTES:

(1) The LLD is defined, for purposes of these commitments, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

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

LLD = 4.66 sb E V - 2.22 x 106

Y exp (-2At)

Where:

LLD is the "a priori" lower limit of detection as defined above (as microCurie per unit mass or volume),

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

E is the counting efficiency (as counts per disintegration),

V is the sample size (in units of mass or volume),

2.22 x 106 is the number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie, Y is the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable),

X is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide, and At is the elapsed time between midpoint of sample collection and time of counting (for plant effluents, not environmental samples).

Typical values of E, V, Y and At shall be used in the calculation.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an a Driori (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.

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

McGuire Units 1 and 2 16.11.1-3 Revision 9

Liquid Effluents - Concentration 16.11.1 TABLE 16.11.1-1 (Page 3 of 3)

(3) To be representative of the quantities and concentrations of radioactive materials in liquid effluents, samples shall be collected continuously or intermittently in proportion to the rate of flow of the effluent stream. Prior to analyses, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite sample to be representative of the effluent release.

(4) A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for analyses, each batch shall be isolated and thoroughly mixed to assure representative sampling.

(5) A continuous release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a nondiscrete volume; e.g.,

from a volume of system that has an input flow during the continuous release.

(6) The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification applies exclusively are the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, and Ce-141.

Liquid Effluents - Concentration 16.11.1 FIGURE 16.11.1-1 SITE BOUNDARY McGuire Units 1 and 2 16.11.1-5 Revision 9

Liquid Effluents - Concentration 16.11.1 BASES This commitment is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be less than 10 times the effluent concentration levels specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2.

This limitation provides additional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water in UNRESTRICTED AREAS will result in exposures within: (1) the Section II.A design objectives of Appendix 1, 10 CFR Part 50, to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC, and (2) the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.1301 to the population. The concentration limit for dissolved or entrained noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radioisotope and its EC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) Publication 2. This commitment applies to the release of liquid effluents from all reactors at the site.

The basic requirements for the Selected Licensee Commitments concerning effluents from nuclear power reactors are stated in 1 OCFR50.36a. These requirements indicate that compliance with effluent Selected Licensee Commitments will keep average annual releases of radioactive material in effluents to small percentages of the limits specified in the old 10CFR20.106 (new 10CFR20.1301). These requirements further indicate that operational flexibility is allowed, compatible with considerations of health and safety, which may temporarily result in releases higher than such small percentages, but still within the limits specified in the old 10CFR20.106 which references Appendix B, Table II concentrations (MPCs). These referenced concentrations are specific values which relate to an annual dose of 500 mrem. It is further indicated in 10CFR50.36a that when using operational flexibility, best efforts shall be exerted to keep levels of radioactive materials in effluents as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA) as set forth in 10CFR50, Appendix I.

As stated in the Introduction to Appendix B of the new 1 OCFR20, the effluent concentration (EC) limits given in Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, are based on an annual dose of 50 mrem. Since a release concentration corresponding to a limiting dose rate of 500 mrem/year has been acceptable as a SLC limit for liquid effluents, which applies at all times as an assurance that the limits of 10CFR50, Appendix I are not likely to be exceeded, it should not be necessary to reduce this limit by a factor of 10.

Operational history at Catawba/McGuire/Oconee has demonstrated that the use of the concentration values associated with the old 10CFR20.106 as SLC limits has resulted in calculated maximum individual doses to members of the public that are small percentages of the limits of 10CFR50, Appendix I. Therefore, the use of concentration values which correspond to an annual dose of 500 mrem should not have a negative impact on the ability to continue to operate within the limits of 10CFR50 Appendix I and 40CFR1 90.

Having sufficient operational flexibility is especially important in establishing a basis for effluent monitor setpoint calculations. As discussed above, the concentrations stated in the new 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, relate to a dose of 50 mrem in a year.

When applied on an instantaneous basis, this corresponds to a dose rate of 50 mrem/year.

This low value is impractical upon which to base effluent monitor setpoint calculations for many liquid effluent release situations when monitor background, monitor sensitivity, and monitor performance must be taken into account.

BASES (continued)

McGuire Units 1 and 2 16.11.1-6 Revision 9

Liquid Effluents - Concentration 16.11.1 Therefore, to accommodate operational flexibility needed for effluent releases, the limits associated with SLC 16.11.1 are based on ten times the concentrations stated in the new 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 to apply at all times. The multiplier of ten is proposed because the annual dose of 500 mrem, upon which the concentrations in the old 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2 are based, is a factor of ten higher than the annual dose of 50 mrem, upon which the concentrations in the new 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, are based. Compliance with the limits of the new 10CFR20.1301 will be demonstrated by operating within the limits of 10CFR50, Appendix I and 40CFR1 90.

The required detection capabilities for radioactive materials in liquid waste samples are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLDs). Detailed discussion of the LLD, and other detection limits can be found in HASL Procedures Manual, HASL-300 (revised annually), Currie, L.

For the design of filter/demineralizers using powder resin, the slurry wash volume and the weight of resin used per batch is fixed by the cell surface area, and the slurry volume to resin weight ratio is constant at 100 ml/gram of wet, drained resin with a moisture content of approximately 55 to 60% (bulk density of about 58 pounds per cubic feet).

The batch limits provide assurance that activity input to the chemical treatment ponds will be minimized, and a means of identifying radioactive material in the inventory limitation of SLC 16.11.5.

The basic requirements for the Selected Licensee Commitments concerning effluents from nuclear power reactors are stated in 10CFR50.36a. These requirements indicate that compliance with effluent Selected Licensee Commitments will keep average annual releases of radioactive material in effluents to small percentages of the limits specified in the old 10CFR20.106 (new 10CFR20.1301). These requirements further indicate that operational flexibility is allowed, compatible with considerations of health and safety, which may temporarily result in releases higher than such small percentages, but still within the limits specified in the old 10CFR20.106 which references Appendix B, Table II concentrations- (MPCs). These referenced concentrations are specific values which relate to an annual dose of 500 mrem. It is further indicated in 10CFR50.36a that when using operational flexibility, best efforts shall be exerted to keep levels of radioactive materials in effluents as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA) as set forth in 10CFR50, Appendix I.

McGuire Units 1 and 2 16.11.5-3 Revision 0

Chemical Treatment Ponds 16.11.5 BASES (continued)

As stated in the Introduction to Appendix B of the new 10CFR20, the effluent concentration (EC) limits given in Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, are based on an annual dose of 50 mrem. Since a release concentration corresponding to a limiting dose rate of 500 mrem/year has been acceptable as a SLC limit for liquid effluents, which applies at all times as an assurance that the limits of 10CFR50, Appendix I are not likely to be exceeded, it should not be necessary to reduce this limit by a factor of 10.

Operational history at Catawba/McGuire/Oconee has demonstrated that the use of the concentration values associated with the old 10CFR20.106 as SLC limits has resulted in calculated maximum individual doses to members of the public that are small percentages of the limits of 10CFR50, Appendix I. Therefore, the use of concentration values which correspond to an annual dose of 500 mrem should not have a negative impact on the ability to continue to operate within the limits of 10CFR50, Appendix I and 40CFR1 90.

Having sufficient operational flexibility is especially important in establishing a basis for effluent monitor setpoint calculations. As discussed above, the concentrations stated in the new 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, relate to a dose of 50 mrem in a year.

When applied on an instantaneous basis, this corresponds to a dose rate of 50 mrem/year.

This low value is impractical upon which to base effluent monitor setpoint calculations for many liquid effluent release situations when monitor background, monitor sensitivity, and monitor performance must be taken into account.

Therefore, to accommodate operational flexibility needed for effluent releases, the limits associated with SLC 16.11.1 are based on ten times the concentrations stated in the new 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 to apply at all times. The multiplier of ten is proposed because the annual dose of 500 mrem, upon which the concentrations in the old 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2 are based, is a factor of ten higher than the annual dose of 50 mrem, upon which the concentrations in the new 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, are based. Compliance with the limits of the new 10CFR20.1301 will be demonstrated by operating within the limits of 1 OCFR50, Appendix I and 40CFR1 90.

NOTES:

1. The LLD is defined, for purposes of these commitments, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

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

LLD = 4.66 sb E. V .2.22 x 106

Y- exp (-IAt)

Where:

LLD = the "a priori" lower limit of detection as defined above (as microCurie per unit mass or volume);

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

E = the counting efficiency (as counts per disintegration);

V = the sample size (in units of mass or volume);

2.22 x10 6= the number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie; Y = the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable);

x = the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide; and At = the elapsed time between midpoint of sample collection and time of counting (for plant effluents, not environmental samples).

Typical values of E, V, Y and At shall be used in the calculation.

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

McGuire Units 1 and 2 16.11.6-5 Revision 0

Dose Rate - Gaseous Effluents 16.11.6 BASES Specific release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY to less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the whole body, and 3000 mrem/year to the skin from noble gases, and 1500 mrem/year to any organ from Iodine 131, Iodine 133, tritium, and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than eight days. This commitment applies to the release of gaseous effluents from all reactors at the site.

The basic requirements for the Selected Licensee Commitments concerning effluents from nuclear power reactors are stated in 10CFR50.36a. These requirements indicate that compliance with effluent Selected Licensee Commitments will keep average annual releases of radioactive material in effluents to small percentages of the limits specified in the old 10CFR20.106 (new 10CFR20.1301). These requirements further indicate that operational flexibility is allowed, compatible with considerations of health and safety, which may temporarily result in releases higher than such small percentages, but still within the limits specified in the old 10CFR20.106 which references Appendix B, Table II concentrations (MPCs). These referenced concentrations are specific values which relate to an annual dose of 500 mrem. It is further indicated in 10CFR50.36a that when using operational flexibility, best efforts shall be exerted to keep levels of radioactive materials in effluents as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA) as set forth in 10CFR50, Appendix I.

As stated in the Introduction to Appendix B of the new 10CFR20, the effluent concentration (EC) limits given in Appendix B, Table 2, Column 1, are based on an annual dose of 50 mrem for isotopes for which inhalation or ingestion is limiting or 100 mrem for isotopes for which submersion (noble gases) is limiting. Since release concentrations corresponding to limiting dose rates of less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the whole body, 3000 mrem/year to the skin from noble gases, and 1500 mrem/year to any organ from Iodine 131, Iodine 133, tritium and for all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than eight days at the site boundary has been acceptable as a SLC limit for gaseous effluents to assure that the limits of 10CFR50, Appendix I and 40CFR1 90 are not likely to be exceeded, it should not be necessary to restrict the operational flexibility by incorporating the EC value for isotopes based on ingestion/inhalation (50 mrem/year) or for isotopes with the EC based on submersion (100 mrem/year).

Having sufficient operational flexibility is especially important in establishing a basis for effluent monitor setpoint calculations. As discussed above, the concentrations stated in the new 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 1, relate to a dose of 50 or 100 mrem in a year. When applied on an instantaneous basis, this corresponds to a dose rate of either 50 or 100 mrem/year. These low values are impractical upon which to base effluent monitor setpoint calculations for many effluent release situations when monitor background, monitor sensitivity, and monitor performance must be taken into account. Therefore, to accommodate operational flexibility needed for effluent releases, the limits associated with SLC 16.11.6 will be maintained at the current dose rate limit for noble gases of 500 mrem/year to the whole body and 3000 mrem/year to the skin, for Iodine 131, Iodine 133, tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than eight days an instantaneous dose rate limit of 1500 mrem/year to any organ.

McGuire Units 1 and 2 16.11.6-6 Revision 0

Dose Rate - Gaseous Effluents 16.11.6 BASES (continued)

Compliance with the limits of the new 10CFR20.1301 will be demonstrated by operating within the limits of 1 OCFR50, Appendix I and 40CFR1 90. Operational history at Catawba/McGuire/Oconee has demonstrated that the use of the dose rate values listed above (i.e. 500 mrem/year, 3000 mrem/year and 1500 mrem/year) as SLC limits has resulted in calculated maximum individual doses to members of the public that are small percentages of the limits of 10CFR50, Appendix I and 40CFR1 90.

The required detection capabilities for radioactive materials in gaseous waste samples are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLDs). Detailed discussion of the LLD, and other detection limits can be found in HASL Procedures Manual, HASL-300 (revised annually), Currie, L.A., "Limits for Qualitative Detection and Quantitative Determination Application to Radiochemistry," Anal. Chem. 40, 586-93. (1968), and Hartwell, J. K.

Noble Gases 16.11.8 TESTING REQUIREMENTS TEST FREQUENCY TR 16.11.8.1 Determine cumulative dose contributions from noble 31 days gases in gaseous effluents for current calendar quarter and current calendar year in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM.

BASES This commitment is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.B, III.A and IV.A of Appendix 1,10 CFR Part 50. The Limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section 11.B of Appendix I.

The REMEDIAL ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in gaseous effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable."

The TESTING REQUIREMENTS implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially under-estimated.

The dose calculation methodology and parameters established in the ODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive noble gases in gaseous effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977.

The ODCM equations provided for determining the air doses at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY are based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions.

This commitment applies at all times to the release of gaseous effluents from each reactor at the site. For units with shared Radwaste Treatment Systems, the gaseous effluents from the shared system are to be proportioned among the units sharing that system in accordance with the guidance given in NUREG-01 33, Chapter 3.1.

a. During any calendar quarter: less than or equal to 7.5 mrem to any organ, and

b. During any calendar year: less than or equal to 15 mrem to any organ.

APPLICABILITY At all times.

REMEDIAL ACTIONS Enter applicable Conditions and Required Actions of SLC 16.11.12, "Total Dose," when the limits of this SLC are exceeded by twice the specified limit.

CONDITION REQUIRED ACTION COMPLETION TIME A. Calculated dose from A.1 Prepare and submit a 30 days the release of Iodine 131 Special Report to the NRC and 133, tritium, and which identifies the causes radioactive materials in for exceeding the limits, particulate form with corrective actions taken to half-lives greater than 8 reduce releases, and days in gaseous actions taken to ensure effluents exceeding any that subsequent releases of the above limits, are within limits.

BASES This commitment is provided to implement the requirements-of Sections- II.C, III.A and IV.A of Appendix 1,10 CFR Part 50. The Limiting Conditions for Operation are the guides set forth in Section II.C of Appendix I.

The REMEDIAL ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable.

The ODCM calculational methods specified in the TESTING REQUIREMENTS implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated.

The ODCM calculational methodology and parameters for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of the subject materials are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water Cooled Reactors, Revision 1, July 1977. These equations also provide for determining the actual doses based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions.

The release rate specifications for Iodine-131 and 133, tritium, and radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days are dependent upon the existing radionuclide pathways to man, in the areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY. The pathways that were examined in the development of 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.

TEST FREQUENCY TR 16.11.10.1 Project gaseous release doses from each unit to areas 31 days at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY, in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM, when gaseous systems are being released without being processed by its radwaste treatment system.

BASES The OPERABILITY of the WASTE GAS HOLDUP SYSTEM and the VENTILATION EXHAUST TREATMENT SYSTEM ensures that the systems will be available for use whenever gaseous effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment. 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 commitment implements the requirements of 19 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and the design objectives given in Section IL.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the systems were specified as a suitable fraction of the dose design objectives set forth in Section II.B and IL.C of Appendix 1,10 CFR Part 50, for gaseous effluents.

This commitment applies at all times to the release of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents from each unit at the site.

Cumulative dose contributions from liquid and gaseous effluents shall be determined in accordance with SLC 16.11.3, 16.11.8 andl6.11.9, and in accordance with the methodology and parameters specified in the ODCM.

TEST FREQUENCY TR 16.11.12.1 Determine cumulative dose contributions from direct When calculated radiation from the units and from radwaste storage tanks doses from in accordance with the methodology and parameters effluent releases specified in the ODCM. exceeds twice the limits of SLCs 16.11.3, 16.11.8 or 16.11.9 BASES This commitment is provided to meet the dose limitations of 40 CFR Part 190 that have been incorporated into 10 CFR Part 20 by 46 FR 18525. The specification requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses from plant generated radioactive effluents and direct radiation exceed 25 mrem to the whole body or any organ, except the thyroid, which shall be limited to less than or equal to 75 mrem. For sites containing up to four reactors, it is highly unlikely that the resultant dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC will exceed the dose limits of 40 CFR Part 190 if the individual reactors remain within twice the dose design objectives of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I, and if direct radiation doses from the units and outside storage tanks are kept small.

This Special Report, as defined in 10 CFR Part 20.2203(a)(4), 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, for the calendar year that includes the release(s) covered by this report. It shall also describe levels of radiation and concentrations of radioactive material involved, and the cause of the exposure levels or concentrations. The Special Report will describe a course of action that should result in the limitation of the annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC to within the 40 CFR Part 190 limits. For the purposes of the Special Report, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the MEMBER of the PUBLIC from other uranium fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contributions from other nuclear fuel cycle facilities at the same site or within a radius of 8 km must be considered.

If the dose to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is estimated to exceed the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190, the Special Report with a request for a variance (provided the release conditions resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 have not already been corrected), in McGuire Units 1 and 2 16.11.12-2 Revision 0

Total Dose 16.11.12 BASES (continued) accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR Part 190.11 and 10 CFR Part 20.2203(a)(4), is considered to be a timely request and fulfills the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190 and a variance is granted until NRC staff action is completed. The variance only relates to the limits of 40 CFR Part 190, and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose limitation of 10 CFR Part 20, as addressed in SLCs 16.11.1 and 16.11.6.

An individual is not considered a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC during any period in which he/she is engaged in carrying out any operation that is part of the nuclear fuel cycle.

RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM NOTES:

1. Specific parameters of distance and direction sector from the centerline of one reactor, and additional description where pertinent, shall be provided for each and every sample location in Table 16.11.13-1 in a table and figure(s) in the ODCM. Refer to NUREG 0133, "Preparation of Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for Nuclear Power Plants," October 1978, and to Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position, Revision 1, November 1979. Deviations are permitted from the required sampling schedule if specimens are unobtainable due to hazardous conditions, seasonal unavailability, malfunction of automatic sampling equipment and other legitimate reasons. If specimens are unobtainable due to sampling equipment malfunction, every effort shall be made to complete corrective action prior to the end of the next sampling period. All deviations from the sampling schedule shall be documented in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report. It is recognized that, at times, it may not be possible or practical to continue to obtain samples of the media of choice at the most desired location or time. In these instances suitable alternative media and locations may be chosen for the particular pathway in question and appropriate substitutions made within 30 days in the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. In lieu of an Licensee Event Report, identify the cause of the unavailability of samples for that pathway and identify the new locations(s) for obtaining replacement samples in the next Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report and also include in the report a revised figure(s) and table for the ODCM reflecting the new location(s).

2. 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 this table, a thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) is considered to be one phosphor; two or more phosphors in a packet are considered as two or more dosimeters. Film badges shall not be used as dosimeters for measuring direct radiation. The forty stations is not an absolute number. The number of direct radiation monitoring stations may be reduced according to geographical limitations; e.g.,

at an ocean site, some sections will be over water so that the number of dosimeters may be reduced accordingly. The frequency of analysis or readout for TLD systems will depend upon the characteristics of the specific system used and should be selected to obtain optimum dose information with minimal fading.

3. The purpose of this sample is to obtain background information. If it is not practical to establish control locations in accordance with the distance and wind direction criteria, other sites that provide valid background data may be substituted.

4. Airborne particulate sample filters shall be analyzed for gross beta radioactivity 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months or more after sampling to allow for radon and thoron daughter decay. If gross beta activity in air particulate samples is greater than ten times the yearly mean of control samples, gamma isotopic analysis shall be performed on the individual samples.

The LLD is defined, for purposes of these commitments, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count (above system background) that will be detected with 95% probability with 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

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

LLD = 4.66 sb E- V- 2.22. Y exp (-AAt)

Where:

LLD is the "a priori" lower limit of detection as defined above (as picoCurie per unit mass or volume),

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

E is the counting efficiency (as counts per disintegration),

V is the sample size (in units of mass or volume),

2.22 is the number of disintegrations per minute per picoCurie, Y is the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable),

X is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide, and At is the elapsed time between sample collection (or end of the sample collection period) and time of counting (for environmental samples, not plant effluent samples).

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

Occasionally background fluctuations, unavoidable small sample sizes, the presence of interfering nuclides, or other uncontrollable circumstances may render these LLDs unachievable. In such cases, the contributing factors shall be identified and described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program 16.11.13 BASES The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program is established to monitor the radiation and radionuclides in the environs of the plant. The program provides representative measurements of radioactivity in the highest potential exposure pathways, and verification of the accuracy of the effluent monitoring program and modeling of environmental exposure pathways. The program is contained in SLC 16.11.13 - 16.11.16 and conforms to the guidance of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.

The program includes the following:

1. Monitoring, sampling, analysis, and reporting of radiation and radionuclides in the environment in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM,

2. A Land Use Census to ensure that changes in the use of areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY are identified and that modifications to the monitoring program are made if required by the results of this census, and

3. Participation in an Interlaboratory Comparison Program to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive materials in environmental sample matrices are performed as part of the quality assurance program for environmental monitoring.

The portion of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program required by this commitment provides representative measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides that lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program implementsSection IV.B.2 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 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 the Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position on Environmental Monitoring. The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least the first 3 years of commercial operation. Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The required detection capabilities for environmental sample analyses are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLDs). The LLDs required by Table 16.11.13-3 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.

With the level of radioactivity in an environmental sampling medium at a specified location exceeding the reporting levels of Table 16.11.13-3 when averaged over any calendar quarter, in lieu of a Licensee Event Report, prepare and submit to the Commission within 30 days a Special Report that defines the corrective actions to be McGuire Units 1 and 2 16.11.13-13 Revision 0

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program 16.11.13 BASES (continued) taken to reduce radioactive effluents so that the potential annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is less than the calendar year limits of SLCs 16.11.6, 16.11.8, and 16.11.9. When more than one of the radionuclides in Table 16.11.13-2 are detected in the sampling medium, this report shall be submitted if:

concentration (1) + concentration (2) + ...... > 1.0 limit level (1) limit level (2)

When radionuclides other than those in Table 16.11.13-2 are detected and are the result of plant effluents, this report shall be submitted if the potential annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is equal to or greater than the calendar year limits of SLCs 16.11.6, 16.11.8 and 16.11.9. This report is not required if the measured level of radioactivity was not the result of plant effluents; however, in such an event, the condition shall be reported and described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report. The methodology and parameters used to estimate the potential annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC shall be indicated in this report.

Detailed discussion of the LLD, and other detection limits, can be found in HASL Procedures Manual, HASL-300 (revised annually), Currie, L. A., "Limits for Qualitative Detection and Quantitative Determination - Application to Radiochemistry," Anal. Chem.

Land Use Census 16.11.14 BASES This commitment is provided to ensure that changes in the use of areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY 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 the door-to-door survey, from aerial survey, or from consulting with local agricultural authorities shall be used. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of 2 m

Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. Restricting the census to gardens of greater than 50 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 Regulatory Guide 1.109 for consumption by a child. To determine this minimum garden size, the following assumptions were made: (1) 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegetation (i.e., similar to lettuce and cabbage), and (2) a vegetation yield of 2 kg/m 2.

With a land use census identifying a location(s) which yields a calculated dose or dose commitment (via the same exposure pathway) 20% greater than at a location from which samples are currently being obtained in accordance with SLC 16.11.13, add the new location to the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. The sampling location(s),

excluding the control station location, having the lowest calculated dose or dose commitment (via the same exposure pathway) may be deleted from this monitoring program after October 31 of the year in which this land use census was conducted.

Gas Storage Tanks 16.11.20 BASES This SLC considers postulated radioactive releases due to a waste gas system leak or failure, and limits the quantity of radioactivity in each pressurized gas storage tank in the WASTE GAS HOLDUP SYSTEM to assure that a release would be substantially below the dose guideline values of 10 CFR Part 100 for a postulated event.

Restricting the quantity of radioactivity contained in each gas storage tank provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tank's contents, the resulting total body exposure to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at the nearest exclusion area boundary will not exceed 0.5 rem. This is consistent with Standard Review Plan 11.3, Branch Technical Position ETSB 11-5, "Postulated Radioactive Releases Due to a Waste Gas System Leak or Failure," in NUREG-0800, July 1981.
