DOSE BROWNS FERRY ASSESSMENT EPIP-13 NUCLEAR PLANT 1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of this procedure is to describe actions and responsibilities of Radiological Controls (RADCON) personnel during an assessment of environmental radiological conditions at Browns Ferry.

2.0 SCOPE EPIP-13 will be initiated when the RADCON Shift Supervisor or designee is requested or requires information regarding dose assessment.

EPIP-13 contains instructions for RADCON regarding methods for Projecting Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) and Thyroid Committed Dose Equivalent (CDE) from airborne radioactivity releases The method for projecting TEDE and/or CDE from airborne radioactivity releases may be requested by operations to support emergency classification and/or protective action recommendations The use of this method should only be utilized in the absence of more sophisticated dose models, when the Central Emergency Control Center (CECC) is not activated.

3.0 INSTRUCTIONS 3.1 Method for Proiecting Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) and Thyroid Committed Dose Equivalent (CDE) from Airborne Radioactivity Releases The method for Projecting TEDE and Thyroid CDE from Airborne Radioactivity Releases is by manual method through the application of matrix tables and calculations.

3.1.1 Manual Method for Projecting TEDE and Thyroid CDE from Airborne Radioactivity Releases 3.1.1.1 The Radcon Shift Supervisor/designee or the TSC Radcon representative is responsible for completing Attachment A of this procedure when releases involves a stack release or Attachment B when the release involves a building or ground level release. The results of the completed attachment "A" and "B" should then be summarized on attachment "C" and forwarded to the Shift Manager /

Site Emergency Director.

DETERMINE ESTIMATED RELEASE START TIME AND RELEASE DURATION Contact the affected unit, Unit Supervisor to obtain'information regarding the release start time and duration. Record release duration in hours. If the release duration can not be determined by operations, then a default duration of 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> should be utilized.

Record data on page 5 of this attachment.

DETERMINE NOBLE GAS RELEASE RATE IN 4CI/SECOND The Noble Gas Release Rate should be calculated utilizing data obtained from the SPDS terminals under the screen name "MISCRAD". From this screen use the "F5" key to view a tabular form of the instruments utilized by the previous screen. Collect data described as "WIDE RANGE GASEOUS EFFL RAD MON and STACK FLOW".

If the value for the "WIDE RANGE GASEOUS EFFL RAD MON" is equal to or less than 0 00, then discontinue the dose assessment and report that there are no off-site TEDE concerns for the stack release Utilize SPDS history to obtain the highest release concentration for the incident. It is recommended that data be reviewed from history approximately one hour (60 minutes) prior to the estimated start time as referenced in the preceding step. Then step through to the 30 minute period prior to the estimated start time using the F4 key. (It is recommended that data be retrieved at frequency of every 10 minutes or 600 seconds) Place the highest release concentration data in the applicable calculation fields The completed calculation provides the Noble Gas Release Rate Record and utilize this rate for the dose assessment calculations If SPDS is unavailable, notify affected unit, operations personnel, to gain the information utilizing control room instrumentation, or if unavailable notify the Shift Manager/Site Emergency Director that TI 67, "Determination of Stack and Hardened Wetwell Vent Release Rates" (backup mrrethod), procedure must be performed by Radcon and Chemistry personnel.

EMERGENCY BROWNS FERRY EXPOSURE 15 NUCLEAR PLANT 1.0 PURPOSE This procedure provides guidance for authorizations of personnel dose limits under emergency conditions, consistent with EPA-400, "Manual of Protection Action Guides and Protective Actions for Nuclear Incidents".

2.0 SCOPE These limits apply only to emergency exposure authorizations and not to spontaneous reactions by individuals attempting to mitigate an emergency situation This procedure provides guidance for the approval and administration of radiation exposures received during emergencies in excess of 10 CFR 20.1201 entitled "Occupational Dose Limits for Adults."

This procedure does not provide direction for the approval and administration for exposures received during other activities involving radiation dose to individuals Note: For the purposes of this implementing procedure, radiation exposure as expressed in units of R/hr and submits, thereof, are equivalent to dose (rad) and dose equivalent (rem) based on ANSI N 13.11 development and terminology. Any acute dose greater that 10 rem is generally denoted in units of rad, since that level is considered as the accident range of personnel exposure. Any dose less than that level is considered as the protective range of personnel exposure. For purposes of this procedure the assumptions of 1 rad = 1 rem is assumed for all levels of exposure 3.0 INSTRUCTIONS 3.1 RADCON Group The Radiological Control group is responsible for performing radiological surveys or other assessments to estimate the radiation doses 3.2 SITE EMERGENCY DIRECTOR 3.2.1 The Site Emergency Director (SED), shall provide authorization for all emergency radiation doses that may exceed 10 CFR 20 1201 entitled "Occupational Dose Limits for Adults" 3 2 2 The documentation of authorization shall be accomplished by SED signature on Attachment B of this procedure PAGE 1 OF 7 REVISION 7

EMERGENCY BROWNS FERRY EXPOSURE EPIP- 15 NUCLEAR PLANT 3.3 GUIDANCE FOR ALL EMERGENCY DOSE LIMITS 3.3.1 The exposure of personnel during emergency operations shall be maintained As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA).

3.3.2 Internal exposure should be minimized by the use of respiratory protection equipment Respiratory Protection Factors are provided Standard Programs and Processes (SPP) 5 10 If a projected dose to the thyroid is expected to exceed 10 rem during emergency conditions, Potassium Iodine (KI) should be issued EPIP 14 contains information regarding issuance and precautions for the use of KI.

3.3.3 Protective clothing should be used to minimize personnel contamination 3.3 4 Personnel undertaking an emergency operation in which the dose will exceed 10 CFR 20 1201 entitled "Occupational Dose Limits for Adults" limits shall do so on a voluntary basis and with full awareness of the risks involved, including the numerical levels of dose at which acute effects of radiation will be incurred and numerical estimates of the risk of delayed effects as depicted on Attachment A.

Acknowledgment of this decision shall be documented on Attachment B of this procedure by the individual involved in this activity 3.3 6 Other factors being equal, older volunteers should be selected first 3 3 7 Other factors being equal, selection of female volunteers capable of reproduction should be avoided.

3 3 8 Exposures under these conditions shall be limited to a once in a lifetime Personnel who have received previous accident or emergency exposures in excess of 25 rem TEDE shall not participate in further emergency exposure assignments 3 3 9 Personnel shall not enter any area where dose rates are unknown or not measurable with instruments and dosimetry immediately available PAGE 2 OF 7 REVISION 7

EMERGENCY BROWNS FERRY EXPOSURE EPIP-15 NUCLEAR PLANT 3.0 INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED) 3.3 9 Until isotopic assessments of airborne radioactivity are available, and administrative correction factor of 2 should be used to estimate TEDE exposures in airborne activity areas Estimated TEDE = Dosimeter Reading X 2 Note: The above value corresponds to the ratio of external (measured) dose rate to estimate TEDE dose, in accordance with default values in TVA's Dose Assessment model. When accident specific nuclide assessment are available, more definitive dose assessments should be performed to adjust the correction factors.

3.4 DOSE LIMITS FOR WORKERS DURING EMERGENCIES 3.4 1 Doses to all workers during emergencies should, to the extent practicable be limited to 10 CFR 20 1201 limits There are however, some emergency situations for which higher emergency exposures may be justified Whenever these situations are justified and ALARA considerations have been evaluated the following limits can be administered.
