Radioactive Effluent Release Report Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Radioactive Effluent Release Report January 1 through December 31, 2002 Protection Standards Soon after the discovery of x-rays in '1895 by Wilhelm Roentgen, the potential hazards of ioniz-ing radiation were recognized and efforts were made to establish radiation protection standards.
The -primary source of recommendations for radiation protection'standards within the United States is the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP). Many of these recommendations have been given legislative authority through publication in the Code of Fed-eral Regulations (CFR) by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
The main objective in the control of radiation'is to ensure that any'dose is kept not only within regulatory limits, but As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA). The ALARA principle ap-plies to reducing radiation dose both to the individual working at Davis-Besse and to the general public. "Reasonably achievable" means that exposure'reduction is based on sound economic de-cisions and operating practices. By practicing ALARA, Davis-Besse minimizes health risk and environmental detriment and ensures that doses are maintained well below regulatory limits.'
Sources of Radioactivity Released During the normal operation of a nuclear power station, most of the fission products are retained within the fuel and fuel cladding. However, small amounts of radioactive fission products and trace amounts of the component and structure surfaces, which have been activated, are present in the primary coolant water. The three types of radioactive material released are noble gases, io-dine and particulates, and tritium.
The noble gas fission products in the primary coolant are given off as a gas when the coolant is depressurized. These gases are then collected by a system designed for gas collection and stored for radioactive decay prior to release.
Small releases of radioactivity in liquids may occur from valves, piping or equipment associated with the primary coolant system. These liquids are collected through a series of floor and equipment drains and sumps. All liquids of this nature are monitored and processed, if neces-sary, prior to release.
Noble Gas Some of the fission products released in airborne effluents are radioactive isotopes of noble gases, such as xenon and krypton. Noble gases are biologically and chemically inert.
82
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report They do not concentrate in humans or other organisms. They contribute to human radiation dose by being an external source of radiation exposure to the body. Xenon-133 and xenon-135, with half-lives of approximately five days and nine hours, respectively, are the major radioactive no-ble gases released. They are readily dispersed in the atmosphere.
Iodine and Particulates Annual releases of radioisotopes of iodine, and those particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days, in gaseous and liquid effluents are small. Factors such as their high chemical reactivity and solubility in water, combined with the high efficiency of gaseous and liquid processing sys-tems, minimize their discharge. The predominant radioiodine released is iodine-131 with a half-life of approximately eight days. The main contribution of radioactive iodine to human dose is to the thyroid gland, where the body concentrates iodine.
The principal radioactive particulates released are fission products (e.g., cesium-134 and cesium-137) and activation products (e.g., cobalt-58 and cobalt-60). Radioactive cesium and cobalt con-tribute to intemal radiation exposure of tissues such as the muscle, liver, and intestines. These particulates are also a source of external radiation exposure if deposited on the ground.
Tritium Tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen, is the predominant radionuclide in liquid effluents. It is also present in gaseous effluents. Tritium is produced in the reactor coolant as a result of neu-tron interaction with deuterium (also a hydrogen isotope) present in the water and with the boron in the primary coolant. When tritium, in the form of water or water vapor, is ingested or inhaled it is dispersed throughout the body until eliminated.
Processing and Monitoring Effluents are strictly controlled to ensure radioactivity released to the environment is minimal and does not exceed regulatory limits. Effluent control includes the operation of monitoring systems, in-plant and environmental sampling and analyses programs, quality assurance pro-grams for effluent and environmental programs, and procedures covering all aspects of effluent and environmental monitoring.
The radioactive waste treatment systems at Davis-Besse are designed to collect and process the liquid and gaseous wastes that contain radioactivity. For example, the Waste Gas Decay Tanks allow radioactivity in gases to decay prior to release via the station vent.
Radioactivity monitoring systems are used to ensure that all releases are below regulatory limits.
These instruments provide a continuous indication of the radioactivity present. Each instrument is equipped with alarns and indicators in the control room. The alarm setpoints are low enough to ensure the limits will not be exceeded. If a monitor alarms, a release from a tank is automati-cally stopped.
83
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environnental Operating Report All wastes are sampled prior to release and analyzed in a laboratory to identify the specific con-centrations of radionuclides being released. Sampling and analysis provide a more sensitive and precise method of determining effluent composition than with monitoring instruments alone.
A meteorological tower is located in the southwest sector of the Station. It is linked to computers that record the meteorological data.- Coupled with the effluent release data, the'meteorological data are used to calculate the dose to the public.
Beyond the plant, devices' maintained in conjunction with the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program continuously sample the air in the surrounding environment. Frequent sam-ples of other environmental media, such as water and vegetation, are also taken to determine if buildup of deposited radioactive material has occurred in the area.
Exposure Pathways Radiological exposure pathways define the methods by which people may become exposed to ra-dioactive material. The major pathways of concern are those which could cause the highest cal-culated radiation dose. These projected pathways are determined from the type and amount of radioactive material released, the environmental transport mechanism, and the use of the envi-ronment. The environmental transport mechanism includes consideration of physical factors, such as the hydrological (water) and meteorological (weather) characteristics of the area. An An-nual average on the water flow, wind speed, and wind direction are used to evaluate how the ra-dionuclides will be distributed in an area for gaseous or liquid releases. An important factor in evaluating the exposure pathways is the use of the environment. Many factors are considered such as dietary intake of residents, recreational use of the area, and the locations of homes and farms in the area.
The extemal and internal exposure pathways considered are shown in Figure 29. The release of radioactive gaseous effluents involves pathways such as extemal wh'ole body exposure, deposi-tion of radioactive material on plants, deposition on soil, inhalation by animals destined for hu-man consumption, and inhalation by humans. The release of radioactive material in liquid efflu-ents involves pathways such as drinking water, fish consumption, and direct exposure from the lake at the shoreline while swimming.
84
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Figure 29: The exposure pathways shown here are monitored through the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) and are considered when calculating doses to the public.
Although radionuclides can reach humans by many different pathways, some result in more dose than others. The critical pathway is the exposure route that will provide, for a specific radionu-clide, the greatest dose to a population, or to a specific group of the population called the critical group. The critical group may vary depending on the radionuclides involved, the age and diet of the group, or other cultural factors. The dose may be delivered to the whole body or to a specific organ. The organ receiving the greatest fraction of the dose is called the critical organ.
Dose Assessment Dose is the energy deposited by.radiation in an exposed individual. Whole body exposure to ra-diation involves the exposure of all organs. Most background exposures are of this form. Both non-radioactive and radioactive elements can enter the body through inhalation or ingestion.
When they do, they are usually not distributed evenly. For example, iodine concentrates in the thyroid gland, cesium collects in muscle and liver tissue, and strontium collects in bone tissue.
The total dose to organs from a given radionuclide depends on the amount of radioactive material present in the organ and the amount of time that the radionuclide remains in the organ. Some ra-dionuclides remain for very short times due to their rapid radioactive decay and/or elimination rate from the body, while other radionuclides may remain in the body for longer periods of time.
The dose to the general public in the area surrounding Davis-Besse is calculated for each liquid or gaseous release. The dose due to radioactive material released in gaseous effluents is calcu-85
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report lated using factors such as the amount of radioactive material released, the concentration beyond the site boundary, the average weather conditions at the time of the release, the locations of expo-sure pathways (cow milk, goat milk, vegetable gardens and residences), and usage factors (inha-lation, food consumption). The dose due to radioactive material released in liquid effluents is calculated using factors such as the total volume of liquid, the total volume of dilution water, near field dilution, and usage factors (water and fish consumption, shoreline and swimming fac-tors). These calculations produce a conservative estimation of the dose.
Results The Radioactive Effluent Release Report is a detailed listing of radioactivity released from the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station during the period from January 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002.

- Summation of the quantities of radioactive material contained in solid waste packaged and shipped for offsite disposal at federally approved sites (Table 22)
- A listing of all radioactive effluent monitoring instrumentation required by the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, but which were inoperable for more than 30 days During this reporting period, the estimated maximum individual offsite dose due to radioactivity released in effluent was:
Liquid Effluents:
- 1.00E-02 mrem, whole body
- 2.17E-01 mrem, gastro-intestinalAower large intestine Gaseous Effluents:
Noble Gas:
- 9.04E-06 mrad, whole body

- 5.70E-04 mrem, lung These doses are an extremely small fraction of the limits set by the NRC in the Davis-Besse ODCM.
86
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Additional normal release pathways from the secondary system exist. For gaseous effluents, these pathways include the auxiliary feed pump turbine exhausts, the main steam safety valve system and the atmospheric vent valve system, steam packing exhaust and main feed water. For liquid effluents, the additional pathways include the Turbine Building drains via the settling ba-sins. Releases via these pathways are included in the normal release tables in this report.
Regulatory Limits Gaseous Effluents In accordance with Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, dose rates due to radioactivity released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at and beyond the site boundary shall be limited to the following:
Noble gases:
- Released at a rate equal to or less than 500 mrem TEDE per year. (Note: the total dose due to these releases is also limited to 50 mrem in any calendar year.)
- Released at a rate such that the total dose to the skin will be less than or equal to 3000 mrem in a year.
Iodine-131, tritium, and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days:
o Released at a rate such that the total dose to any organ will be less than or equal to 1500 mrem in a year.
In accordance with OCFR50, Appendix I, Sec. IIB. 1, air dose due to radioactivity released in gaseous effluents to areas at and beyond the site boundary shall be limited to the following:
- Less than or equal to 10 mrad total for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 20 mrad total for beta radiation in any calendar year.
In accordance with IOCFR50, Appendix I, Sec. IC, dose to a member of the public from Iodine-131, tritium, and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days in gase-ous effluents released to areas at and beyond the site boundary shall be limited to the following:
- Less than or equal to 15 total mrem to any organ in any calendar year.
Liquid Effluents In accordance with IOCFR50, Appendix I, Sec IIA, the dose or dose commitment to a member of the public from radioactivity in liquid effluents released to unrestricted areas shall be limited to accumulated doses of:
o Less than or equal to 3 mrem to the total body and less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ in any calendar year.
87
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Effluent Concentration Limits The Effluent Concentration Limits (ECs) for liquid and gaseous effluents at and beyond the site boundary are listed in 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, with the most restrictive EC being used in all cases. For dissolved and entrained gases the EC of 2.OE-04 uCi/ml is applied.
This EC is based on the Xe-135 DAC of E-05 uCi/ml of air (submersion dose) converted to an equivalent concentration in water as discussed in the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), Publication 2.
Average Energy The Davis-Besse ODCM limits the dose equivalent rates due to the release of fission and activa-tion products to less than or equal to 500 mrem per year to the total body and less than-or equal to 3000 mrem per year to the skin. Therefore, the average beta and gamma energies (E) for gaseous effluents as described in Regulatory Guide 1.21, "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radio-activity in Solid Wastes and Releases of Radioactive Materials in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents from Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants" are not applicable.
Measurements of Total Activity Fission and Activation Gases:
These gases, excluding tritium, are collected in a marinelli beaker specially -modified for gas sampling, steel flasks, or glass vials, and are counted on a germanium detector for principal gamma emitters. Radionuclides that are detected are quantified via gamma spectroscopy.
Tritium gas is collected using a bubbler apparatus and counted by liquid scintillation.
Iodine Iodine is collected on a charcoal cartridge filter and counted on a germanium detector. Specific quantification of each iodine radionuclide is via gamma spectroscopy.
Particulates Particulates are collected on filter paper and counted on a germanium detector. Specific quantifi-cation of each radionuclide present on the filter paper is via gamma spectroscopy.
Liquid Effluents Liquid effluents are collected in a marinelli beaker and counted on a germanium detector. Quan-tification of each gamma-emitting radionuclide present in liquid samples is via gamma spectros-copy. Tritium in the liquid effluent is quantified by counting an aliquot of a composite sample in a liquid scintillation counting system.

- Water Usage: Survey of Water Treatment Plants (DSR-95-00347)
- 0-50 mile meat, milk, vegetable production, and population data was taken from 1982 Annual Environmental Operating Report entitled, "Evaluation of Compliance with Appendix I to 10CFR50: Updated Population, Agricultural, Meat - Animal, and Milk Production Data Tables for 1982". This evaluation was based on the 1980 Census, the Agricultural Ministry of Ontario 1980 report entitled "Agricul-tural Statistics and Livestock Marketing Account", the Agricultural Ministry of Ontario report entitled "Agricultural Statistics for Ontario, Publication 21, 1980",
the Michigan Department of Agriculture report entitled "Michigan Agricultural Statistics, 1981", and the Ohio Crop Reporting Service report entitled "Ohio Agri-cultural Statistics, 1981".
- Gaseous and liquid source terms: Tables 17 through 21 of this report.
- Location of the nearest individuals and pathways by sector within 5 miles, see Land Use Census Section of the report.
- Population of the 50-mile Radius of Davis-Besse (DSR-95-00398).
Dose to Public Due to Activities Inside the Site Boundary In accordance with ODCM Section 7.2, the Radioactive Effluent Release Report includes an as-sessment of radiation doses from radioactivity released in liquid and gaseous effluents to mem-bers of the public due to activities inside the site boundary.
In special instances, members of the public are permitted access to the Radiologically Restricted Area within the Davis-Besse Station. Tours for the public are conducted with the assurance that no individual will receive any appreciable dose due to radioactivity released in gaseous or liquid effluents (i.e., not more than a small fraction of the 40 CFR190 standards.)
The Wellness Center, Pavilion, Training Center pond and the forebay/canal area located inside DBNPS Owner Controlled Area are accessible to members of the public. The Pavilion is acces-sible to the public for social activities. The Training Center pond, forebay/canal area allows the member of the public to fish on site under a "catch-an-release" program; therefore the fish path-way is not considered applicable. Considering the frequency and duration of the visits, the re-sultant dose would be a small fraction of the calculated maximum site boundary dose. For pur-poses of assessing the dose to members of the public in accordance with ODCM Section 7.2, the following exposure assumptions are used:
- Exposure time for maximally-exposed visitors is 250 hours0.00289 days <br />0.0694 hours <br />4.133598e-4 weeks <br />9.5125e-5 months <br /> (1 hr/day, 5 day/ week, 50 wk/yr)
- Annual average meteorological dispersion (conservative, default use of maximum site boundary dispersion).
- For direct "shine" from the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI),
default use of the maximum dose rate for a completed (full) ISFSI, and a distance of 950 feet.
90
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report The equations in the ODCM may be used for calculating the potential dose to a member of the public for activities inside the site boundary. Based on these assumptions, this dose would be at least a factor of 35 less than the maximum site boundary air dose, as calculated in the ODCM.
Nowhere onsite are areas accessible to the public where exposure to liquid effluents could occur.
Therefore, the modeling of the ODCM conservatively estimates the maximum potential dose to members of the public.
Inoperable Radioactive Effluent Monitoring Equipment There were no radioactive effluent monitoring equipment required to be operable that was in operable for greater than 30 days during the reporting period.
Changes to the ODCM and PCP There was one alteration to the OCDM, Revision 16.0. There were no changes to the Process Control Program (PCP) during this reporting period.
Borated Water Storage Tank Radionuclide Concentrations During the Reporting Period of 2002, the BWST tank concentration did not exceed the ODCM Section 2.2.4 sum of the limiting fraction of nuclides. This is a unitless number between 0 and 1, and the BWST did not exceed the limit of 1.

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Land Use Census Program Design Each year a Land Use Census is conducted by Davis-Besse in order to update information neces-sary to estimate radiation dose to the general public and to determine if any modifications are necessary to the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP). The Land Use Cen-sus is required by Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 50, Appendix I and Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, Section , Assessment of Land Use Census Data. The Land Use Census identifies gaseous pathways by which radioactive mate-rial may reach the general population around Davis-Besse. The information gathered during the Land Use Census for dose assessment and input into the REMP ensure these programs are as cur-rent as possible. The pathways of concern are listed below:
- Inhalation Pathway - Intemal exposure as a result of breathing radionuclides car-ried in the air.
- Ground Exposure Pathway - Extemal exposure from radionuclides deposited on the ground
- Plume Exposure Pathway - External exposure directly from a plume or cloud of radioactive material.
- Vegetation Pathway - Intemal exposure as a result of eating vegetables, fruit, etc.
which have a build up of deposited radioactive material or which have absorbed ra-dionuclides through the soil.
- Milk Pathway - Internal exposure as a result of drinking milk, which may contain radioactive material as a result of a cow or goat grazing on a pasture contaminated by radionuclides.
Methodology The Land Use Census consists of recording and mapping the locations of the closest residences, dairy cattle and goats, and broad leaf vegetable gardens (greater than 500 square feet) in each meteorological sector within a five mile radius of Davis-Besse.
The surveillance portion of the 2002 Land Use Census was performed during the month of August. In order to gather as much information as possible, the locations of residences, dairy cows, dairy goats, and vegetable gardens were recorded. The residences, vegetable gardens, and milk animals are used in the dose assessment program. The gardens must be at least 500 square feet in size, with at least 20% of the vegetables being broadleaf plants (such as lettuce and cab-bage).
Each residence is tabulated as being an inhalation pathway, as well as ground and plume expo-sure pathways. Each garden is tabulated as a vegetation pathway.
110
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report All of the locations identified are plotted on a map (based on the U.S. Geological Survey 7.5 mi-nute series of the relevant quadrangles) which has been divided into 16 equal sectors corre-sponding to the 16 cardinal compass points (Figure 31). The closest residence, milk animal, and vegetable garden in each sector are determined by measuring the distance from each to the Sta-tion Vent at Davis-Besse.
Results The following changes in the pathways were recorded in the 2002 census:
- S Sector - A garden at 4960 meters replaced a garden at 4230 meters
- SW Sector - No gardens were reported in this sector in 2002
- WSW Sector - The garden at 7430 meters was replaced with a garden at 7770 meters.
- NW Sector - No gardens were reported in this sector in 2002.
The critical receptor identified by the 2002 Land Use Census is a garden in the W sector at 1610 meters from Davis-Besse.
The detailed list in Table 26 was used to update the database of the effluent dispersion model used in dose calculations. Table 26 is divided by sectors and lists the distance (in meters) of the closest pathway in each meteorological sector.
Table 27 provided information on pathways, critical age group, atmospheric dispersion (X/Q) and deposition (D/Q) parameters for each sector. This information is used to update the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). The ODCM describes the methodology and parameters used in calculating offsite doses from radioactivity released in liquid and gaseous effluents and in cal-culating liquid and gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation alarm/trip setpoints.

Non-Radiological Environmental Programs
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Non-Radiological Environmental Programs Meteorological Monitoring The Meteorological Monitoring Program at Davis-Besse is required by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) as part of the program for evaluating the effects of routine operation of nu-clear power stations on the surrounding environment. Both NRC regulations and the Davis-Besse Technical Requirements Manual provide guidelines for'the Meteorological Monitoring Program. These guidelines ensure that Davis-Besse has the proper equipment, in good working order, to support the many programs utilizing meteorological data.
Meteorological observations at Davis-Besse began in October 1968. The Meteorological Moni-toring Program at Davis-Besse has an extensive record of data with which to perform clima-tological studies which are used to determine whether Davis-Besse has had any impact upon the local climate. After extensive statistical comparative research the meteorological personnel have found no impact upon local climate or short-term weather patterns.
The Meteorological Monitoring Program also provides data that can be used by many other groups and programs: Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program, The Emergency Prepar-edness Program, The Chemistry Unit, and groups such as Plant Operations, Plant Security, Mate-rials Management, Industial Safety Program, plant personnel and members of the surrounding community.
The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program uses meteorological data to aid in evalu-ating the radiological impact, if any, of radioactivity released in Station effluents. The meteoro-logical data is used to evaluate radiological environmental monitoring sites to assure the program is as current as possible. The Emergency Preparedness Program uses meteorological data to cal-culate emergency dose scenarios for emergency drills and exercises and uses weather data to plan' evacuations or station isolation during adverse weather. The Chemistry Unit uses meteorological data for chemical spill response activities, marsh management studies, and wastewater discharge flow calculations. Plant Operations uses meteorological data for cooling tower efficiency calcu-lations, forebay water level availability and plant work which needs certain environmental con-ditions to be met before work begins. Plant Security utilizes weather data in their routine plan-ning and activities. Materials Management plans certain plant shipments around adverse weather conditions to avoid high winds and precipitation, which would cause delays in material deliveries and safety concerns. Industrial Safety uses weather and climatological data to advise personnel of unsafe working conditions due to environmental conditions, providing a safer place to work.
Legal Affairs uses climatological data for their investigation into adverse weather accidents to the plant and personnel.

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report On-site Meteorological Monitoring
System Description
At Davis-Besse there are two meteorological systems, a primary and a backup. They are both housed in separate environmentally controlled buildings with independent power supplies. Both primary and backup systems have been analyzed to be "statistically identical" to the other so if one system fails the other can take its place. The instrumentation of each system follows:
PRIMARY BACKUP 100 Meter Wind Speed 100 Meter Wind Speed 75 Meter Wind Speed 75 Meter Wind Speed 10 Meter Wind Speed 10 Meter Wind Speed 100 Meter Wind Direction 100 Meter Wind Direction 75 Meter Wind Direction 75 Meter Wind Direction 10 Meter Wind Direction 10 Meter Wind Direction 100 Meter Delta Temperature 100 Meter Delta Temperature 75 Meter Delta Temperature 75 Meter Delta Temperature 10 Meter Ambient Temperature 10 Meter Ambient Temperature 10 Meter Dew Point 10 Meter Solar Incidence Precipitation Meteorological Instrumentation The meteorological system consists of one monitoring site located at an elevation of 577 feet above mean sea level (IGLD 1955)*, a 100m free-standing tower located about 3,000 feet SSW of the cooling tower, and an auxiliary lOm foot tower located 100 feet west of the 100 m tower, are used to gather the meteorological data. The lOOm tower has primary and backup instruments for wind speed and wind direction at lOOm and 75m. The lOOm tower also measures differential temperature (delta Ts): 100-lOm and 75-lOm. The lOm tower has instruments for wind speed and wind direction. Precipitation is measured by a tipping bucket rain gauge located near the base of the lOm tower.
According to the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station Technical Requirements Manual, a mini-mum of five instruments are required to be operable at the two lower levels (75m and lOm) to measure temperature, wind speed, and wind direction. During 2002, annual data recoveries for all required instruments were 98.9 percent. Minor losses of data occurred during routine instru-ment maintenance, calibration, and data validation.
Personnel at Davis-Besse inspect the meteorological site and instrumentation regularly. Data is reviewed daily to ensure that all communication pathways, data availability and data reliability are working as required. Tower instrumentation maintenance and semiannual calibrations are performed by in-house facilities and by an outside consulting firm. These instruments are wind tunnel tested to assure compliance with applicable regulations and plant specifications.

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report .
Meteorological Data Handling and Reduction Each meteorological system, primary and backup, have two Campbell Scientific Dataloggers (model 21XL) assigned to them. The primary system has a first datalogger to communicate 900 second averages to the control room via a Digital Alpha computer system. This is a dedicated line. If a failure occurs at any point between the primary meteorological system and the control room the control room can utilize the second data logger in the primary shelter. Each datalogger has its own dedicated communication link with battery backup. The backup meteorological sys-tem is designed the same as the primary; so to lose all meteorological data the primary and backup meteorological systems would have to lose all four dataloggers. However, this would be difficult since each is powered by a different power supply and equipped with lightning and surge protection, plus four independent communication lines and datalogger battery backup.
The data from the primary and backup meteorological systems are stored in a 30-day circular storage module with permanent storage held by the Digital Alpha computer. Data goes back to 1988 in this format and to 1968 in both digital and hardcopy formats. All data points are scruti-nized every 900 seconds by meteorological statistics programs running continuously. These are then reviewed by meteorological personnel daily for validity based on actual weather conditions.
A monthly review is performed using 21 NRC computer codes, which statistically analyze all data points for their availability and validity. -Ifquestionable data on the primary system can not be corroborated by the backup system, the data in question is eliminated and not incorporated into the final database. All validated data is then documented and stored on hard copy and in digital format for a permanent record of meteorological conditions.
Meteorological Data Summaries This section contains Tables 28-30, which summarize meteorological data collected from the on-site monitoring program in 2002.
Wind Speed and Wind Direction Wind sector graphics represent the frequency of wind direction by sector and the wind speed in mph by sector. This data is used by the NRC to better understand local wind pattems as they relate to defined past climatological wind pattems reported in Davis-Besse's Updated Safety Analysis Report. The maximum measured sustained wind speeds for 2002 occurred on March 9, when they were measured at 55.98 mph at the 100m level, 52.27 mph at the 75m level, and 39.02mph at the lOm level.
Figures 32-34 give an annual sector graphic of average wind speed and percent frequency by di-rection measured at the three monitoring levels.- Each wind sector graphic has two radial bars.
The darker bar represents the percent of time the wind blew from that direction. The hatched bar represents the average wind speed from that direction. 'Wind direction sectors are classified us-ing Pasquill Stabilities. Percent calms (less than or equal to 1.0 mph) are shown in the middle of the wind sector graphic.

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Ambient and Differential Temperatures Monthly average, minimum and maximum ambient temperatures for 2002 are given in Table 29.
These data are measured at the 10m level; with differential temperatures taken from 100m and 75m levels. The yearly average ambient temperature was 51.29°F. The maximum temperature was 92.67°F on July 2 with a minimum temperature of 6.74°F on March 4. Yearly average differential temperatures were -0.21°F (lOOm), and 0.08°F (75m). Maximum differen-tial temperatures for 100m and 75m levels were 7.99°F on Octoberber 10, (lOOm), and 7.99°F on October 10, (75m). Minimum differential temperatures for 100m and 75m levels were -3.31°F on October 19, (lOOm) and -2.47°F on April 26, (75m). Differential temperatures are a meas-urement of atmospheric stability and used to calculate radioactive plume dispersions based on Gaussian Plume Models of continuous effluent releases.
Dew Point Temperatures and Relative Humidity Monthly average and extreme dew point and humidity temperatures for 2002 are provided in Table 29. These data are measured at the 10 meter level. The average dew point temperature was 42.08°F with a maximum dew point temperature of 75.20TF on July 28. Please note that dew point temperatures above 75°F are highly suspect. and are possibly due to calm winds and high solar heating allowing the aspirated dew point processor to retain heat. The minimum dew point (dew point under 32°F is frost point) temperature was 3.40°F on March 4. Average relative humidity is 73.52 percent for the year. The maximum relative humidity was 100.00 percent on August 23. The minimum relative humidity was 14.52 on April 16. It is possible to have rela-tive humidity above 100 percent, which is known as supersaturation. Conditions for supersatu-ration have been met a few times at Davis-Besse due to its close proximity to Lake Erie, and the evaporative pool of moisture available from such a large body of water.
Precipitation Monthly totals and extremes of precipitation at Davis-Besse for 2002 are given in Table 29. To-tal precipitation for the year was 29.26 inches. The maximum daily precipitation total was 1.61 inches in January. The minimum was 0.36 inches recorded in December. It is likely that pre-cipitation totals recorded in colder months are somewhat less than actual due to snow/sleet blowing across the collection unit rather than accumulating in the gauge.
Lake Breeze and Lake Level Monitoring Lake Breeze is monitored at Davis-Besse because of its potential to cause major atmospheric/
dispersion problems during an unlikely radioactive release. A lake breeze event occurs during the daytime, usually during the summer, where the land surface heats up faster than the water, and therefore reaches higher temperatures than the water. The warmer air above the land rises faster because it is less dense than the cooler air over the lake. This leads to rising air currents over the land with descending denser air over the lake. This starts a wind circulation, which draws air from the water to the land during the daytime, creating a "Lake Breeze" effect. This event could be problematic if a release were to occur because diffusion would be slow thus cre-ating an adverse atmosphere to the surrounding site.

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Lake and forebay levels are monitored at Davis-Besse to observe, evaluate, predict and dissemi-nate high or low lake level information. This data is critical in the running of the plant due to the large amounts of water needed to cool plant components. If water levels get too low the plant operators can take measures for the safe shutdown of the plant. Since Lake Erie is the shallowest of the Great Lakes, it is not uncommon for a plus or minus five feet lake level fluctuation to oc-cur within an eight to ten hour period. High water levels also effect the plant due to emergency transportation and evacuation pathways.

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Enviromnental Operating Report Land and Wetlands Management The Navarre Marsh, which is part of the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge, makes up 733 acres of wetlands on the southwestem shore of Lake Erie and surrounds the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. The marsh is owned by FirstEnergy and jointly managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and FirstEnergy. Navarre Marsh is divided into three pools. The pools are separated from Lake Erie and each other by a series of dikes and revetments. Davis-Besse is responsible for the maintenance and repair of the dikes and controlling the water levels in each of the pools.
A revetment is a retaining structure designed to hold water back for the purposes of erosion con-trol and beach formation. Revetments are built with a gradual slope, which causes waves to dis-sipate their energy when they strike their large surface area. Beach formation is encouraged through the passive deposition of sediment. A dike is a retaining structure designed to hold wa-ter for the purpose of flood control and to aid in the management of wetland habitat. When used as a marsh management tool, dikes help in controlling water levels in order to maintain desired vegetation and animal species. Manipulating water levels is one of the most important marsh management techniques used in the Navarre Marsh. Three major types of wetland communities exist in Navarre Marsh, the freshwater marsh, the swamp forest, and the wet meadow. Also, there exists a narrow dry beach ridge along the lakefront, with a sandbar extending out into Lake Erie. All these areas provide essential food, shelter and nesting habitat, as well as a resting area for migratory birds.
Davis-Besse personnel combine their efforts with a number of conservation agencies and organi-zations. The Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR), and the Black Swamp Bird Observatory work to preserve and enhance existing habitat.
Knowledge is gained through research and is used to help educate the public about the impor-tance of preserving wetlands.
With its location along two major migratory flyways, the Navarre Marsh serves as a refuge for a variety of birds in the spring and fall, giving them an area to rest and restore energy reserves be-fore continuing their migration. The Black Swamp Bird Observatory, a volunteer research group, captures, bands, catalogues, and releases songbirds in the marsh during these periods.
Navarre Marsh is also home to wildlife that is typical of much of the marshland in this area, in-cluding deer, fox, coyote, muskrats, mink, rabbits, groundhogs, hawks, owls, ducks, geese, her-ons, snakes and turtles. For the first time in recent history, a pair of mature American Bald Ea-gles chose the Navarre Marsh as their nesting site in late 1994, and fledged a healthy eaglet in July 1995. The young eagle was one of record 38 fledged in Ohio in 1995. A new nest was built in 1999-2000, and fledged a pair of eaglets in the summer of 2000. Three more eaglets were fledged at Davis-Besse in 2001, and again in 2002, bringing the site total to nine since 1995.
Ohio has gone from a low of 4 nests in 1978 to a record of 79 nests in 2002.
Ohio's eighth Federal Junior Duck Stamp Art Contest was held at Davis-Besse. Young Ohio artists in grades K-12 submit entries in four age brackets. The contest is designed to teach con-servation through the arts and give students a chance to experience the beauty and diversity of wildlife. A total of 101 ribbons are awarded to young Ohio artists, with the state Best-of-Show 132
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report entry submitted to Washington, D.C. to compete in the national contest with other state Best-of-Show entries. The winner of this competition is used to make this year's Junior Duck Stamp.
The 1996 Ohio Junior Duck Stamp Art Contest winner of Best-of-Show, Adam Grimm, became the youngest artist ever to win the adult Federal Duck Stamp contest, at age 21. His artwork was displayed on the 2000 federal duck stamp.
Davis-Besse also hosted a Volunteer Eagle Watchers Workshop. Training was given to over 80 volunteers, who observed Ohio's expanding eagle population during 2002.
Water Treatment Plant Operation Description The Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station draws water from Lake Erie for its water treatment plant. The lake water is treated with chlorine, lime, sodium aluminate and coagulant aid to pro-duce high purity water, which is used by many of the Station's cooling systems.
Treatment System Raw water from Lake Erie enters an intake structure, then passes through traveling screens which will remove debris greater than one-half inch in size. The water is then pumped to chlorine de-tention tanks. Next, the water passes through one of two clarifiers. Davis-Besse uses upflow clarifiers, or precipitators, to remove sediment, organic debris, and dissolved agents from the raw water prior to filtration. Upflow clarifiers combine the conventional treatment steps of coagula-tion, flocculation, and sedimentation into a single unit. Coagulation is the process by which a chemical, called a coagulant, is added, causing the small particles in the water to adhere to each other and form larger particles. During flocculation, the water is gently circulated, allowing these conglomerate particles to mass together further. Finally, during sedimentation, large conglomer-ate particles settle to the bottom of the clarifier. These processes normally require large separate tanks. However, the use of clarifiers saves both space and the manpower needed to operate the treatment plant.

After the clarifier, the water goes through a flow-splitting box, which equally divides the water flow to the Automatic Valveless Gravity Filters (AVGFs). The AVGFs contain a 50:50 ratio of anthracite to filter sand. During this filtration process, suspended matter is removed from the water and turbidity is reduced.
After filtration, the water goes to a 32,000-gallon clearwell. The clearwell acts as a reservoir from which water can be drawn as needed for all systems, including firewater and demineralized water.
Domestic Water When Davis-Besse began operation over 20 years ago, all site domestic water was produced in the Water Treatment Facility. Operation of the domestic water treatment and distribution system, including the collection and analysis of daily samples, was reportable to the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency.
Since December of 1998, domestic water needs at Davis-Besse have been met by the Carroll Township Water District. Since the Station no longer produces its own domestic water, these regulatory requirements no longer apply.
Zebra Mussel Control Introduction The plant receives all of its water from an intake system from Lake Erie. Zebra mussels can se-134
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report verely impact the availability of water for plant processes. Dreissena polymorpha, commonly known as the zebra mussel, is a native European bivalve that was introduced into the Great Lakes in 1986 and was discovered in Lake Erie in 1989. Zebra mussels are prolific breeders that rap-idly colonize an area by forming byssal threads that enable them to attach to solid surfaces and to each other. Because of their ability to attach in this manner, they may form layers several inches deep. This poses a problem to facilities that rely on water intakes from Lake Erie because mus-sels may attach to the intake structures and restrict water flow.
Zebra mussels have not caused any significant problems at Davis-Besse, but mussels have been found attached to the intake crib (the structure that allows water to be pulled in from the lake) and the first section of the intake conduit (the pipe that connects the crib to the intake canal).
Mussels have also been found on the trash racks, and the intake bay #3 walls prior to the travel-ing screens. These mussels are periodically cleaned using high-pressure water. Davis-Besse uses continuous low level chlorination of the intake bays to control the mussels.
The mussel population appears to be leveling off or declining. This is likely due to the increas-ing clarity of Lake Erie. As the food source for the zebra mussel declines, mussel populations decline correspondingly.
Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Operation The WWTP operation is supervised by an Ohio licensed Wastewater Operator. Wastewater gen-erated by site personnel is treated in an onsite extended aeration package treatment facility de-signed to accommodate up to 38,000 gallons per day. In the treatment process, wastewater from the various collection points around the site enters the facility through a grinder, from where it is distributed to the surge tanks of one or both of the treatment plants.
The wastewater is then pumped into aeration tanks, where it is digested by microorganisms.
Oxygen is necessary for good sewage treatment, and is provided to the microbes by blowers and diffusers. The mixture of organics, microorganisms, and decomposed wastes is called activated sludge. The treated wastewater settles in a clarifier, and the clear liquid leaves the clarifier over a weir and exits the plant through an effluent trough. The activated sludge contains the organisms necessary for continued treatment, and is pumped back to the aeration tank to digest incoming wastewater. The effluent leaving the plant is pumped to the wastewater basin (NPDES Outfall 601) where further treatment takes place.
Summary of 2002 Wastewater Treatment Plant Operations All wastewater parameters were within specifications during the year 2002.

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Reporting The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) has established limits on the amount of pollutants that Davis-Besse may discharge to the environment. These limits are regulated through the Station's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit, number 21B00011. Parameters such as chlorine, suspended solids and pH are monitored under the NPDES permit. Davis-Besse personnel prepare the NPDES Reports and submit them to the OEPA each month.
Davis-Besse has eight sampling points described in the NPDES permit. Seven of these locations are discharge points, or outfalls, and one is a temperature monitoring location. Descriptions of these sampling points follow:
Outfall 001 Collection Box: a point representative of discharge to Lake Erie Source of Wastes: Low volume wastes (Outfalls 601 and 602), Circulating Water system blowdown and service water Outfall 002 Area Runoff: Discharge to Toussaint River Source of Wastes: Storm water runoff, Circulating Water pump house sumps Outfall 003 Screenwash Catch Basin: Outfall to Navarre Marsh Source of Wastes: Backwash water and debris from water intake screens Outfall 004 Cooling Tower Basin Ponds: Outfall to State Route 2 Ditch Source of Wastes: Circulating Water System drain (only during system outages)
Outfall 588 Sludge Monitoring Source of Wastes: Wastewater Plant sludge shipped for offsite processing Outfall 601 Wastewater Plant Tertiary Treatment Basin: Discharge from Wastewater Treatment Plant Sources of Wastes: Wastewater Treatment Plant 136
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Outfall 602 Low volume wastes: Discharge from settling basins Sources of wastes: Water treatment residues, Condensate Polishing Holdup Tank decanta-tion and Condensate Pit sumps Sampling Point 801 Intake Temperature: Intake water prior to cooling operation 2002 NPDES Summary During 2002, the NPDES permit was renewed by the Ohio EPA, and it will be effective for five years. A new sampling requirement with Outfall designation 004 was added to the permit, and will be used to monitor water drained from the Circulating Water System during outages. Three violations of the NPDES permit occurred during 2002. Two exceedances were measured at Out-fall 001. Total Residual Oxidant and Total Residual Chlorine were each detected above the per-mit limit once during the year. An instrument error resulted in a 9.1 pH being recorded at Outfall 002, exceeding the limit of 9.0 pH units. Corrective actions were taken to prevent reoccurrence of these exceedances.
Chemical Waste Management The Chemical Waste Management Program for hazardous and nonhazardous chemical wastes generated at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station was developed to ensure wastes are man-aged and disposed of in accordance with all applicable state and federal regulations.
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) is the statute which regulates solid haz-ardous waste. Solid waste is defined as a solid, liquid, semi-solid, or contained gaseous material.
The major goals of RCRA are to establish a hazardous waste regulatory program to protect hu-man health and the environment and to encourage the establishment of solid waste management, resource recovery, and resource conservation systems. The intent of the hazardous waste man-agement program is to control hazardous wastes from the time they are generated until they are properly disposed of, commonly referred to as "cradle to grave" management. Anyone who gen-erates, transports, stores, treats, or disposes of hazardous waste are subject to regulation under RCRA.
Under RCRA, there are essentially three categories of waste generators:
- Large quantity Generators - A facility which generates 1000 kilograms/month 137
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report (2200 lbs./month) or more.
- Small quantity Generators - A facility which generates less than 1000 kilograms/
month (2200 lbs./month).
- Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity Generators - A facility which generates 100 kilo-grams/month (220 lbs./month).
In 2002, the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station qualified as a small quantity generator, generat-ing 2,100 pounds of hazardous waste. Davis-Besse personnel continuously strive to identify ways of reducing hazardous waste.
Non-hazardous waste disposed of in 2002 included 18,500 gallons of used oil, 800 gallons of oil filters and solid oily debris. Other non-hazardous regulated waste generated included 560 gallons of other chemicals such as microfilm process chemicals, polystyrene resins and sandblasting de-bris.
RCRA mandates other requirements such as the use of proper storage and shipping containers, labels, manifests, reports, personnel training, a spill control plan and an accident contingency plan. These are part of the Chemical Management Program at Davis-Besse. The following are completed as part of the hazardous waste management program and RCRA regulations:
- Weekly Inspections of the Chemical Waste Accumulation Areas are designated through-out the site to ensure proper handling and disposal of chemical waste. These, along with the Chemical Waste Storage Area, are routinely patrolled by security personnel and in-spected weekly by Environmental and Chemistry personnel. All areas used for storage or accumulation of hazardous waste are posted with warning signs and drums are color-coded for easy identification of waste categories.
- Waste Inventory Forms are placed on waste accumulation drums or provided in the ac-cumulation area for employees to record the waste type :and amount when chemicals are added to the drum. This ensures that incompatible wastes are not mixed and also identi-fies the drum contents for proper disposal.
Other Environmental Regulating Acts Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA, or Superfund) established a federal authority and source of -funding for responding to spills and other releases of hazardous materials, pollutants and contaminants into the environment. Super-fund establishes "reportable quantities" for several hundred hazardous' materials and regulates the cleanup of abandoned hazardous waste disposal sites.
Superfund Amendment and Reauthorization Act (SARA)
Superfund was amended in October 1986 to establish new reporting programs dealing with emergency preparedness and community right-to-know laws. As part of this program, CERCLA 138
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report is enhanced by ensuring that the potential for release of hazardous substances is minimized, and that adequate and timely responses are made to protect surrounding populations.
Davis-Besse conducts site-wide inspections to identify and record all hazardous products and chemicals onsite as required by SARA. Determinations are made as to which products and chemicals are present in reportable quantities.
Annual SARA reports are submitted to local fire departments and state and local planning com-missions by March 1 for the preceding calendar year.
Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA)
The Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) was enacted to provide the USEPA with the authority to require testing of new chemical substances for potential health effects before they are intro-duced into the environment, and to regulate them where necessary. This law would have little impact on utilities except for the fact that one family of chemicals, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), has been singled out by TSCA. This has resulted in an extensive PCB management system, very similar to the hazardous waste management system established under RCRA.
In 1992, Davis-Besse completed an aggressive program that eliminated PCB transformers onsite.
PCB transformers were either changed out with non-PCB fluid transformers or retrofilled with non-PCB liquid.
Retro-filling PCB transformers involves flushing the PCB fluid out of a transformer, refilling it with PCB-leaching solvents and allowing the solvent to circulate in the transformer during op-eration. The entire retro-fill process takes several years and will extract almost all of the PCB.
In all, Davis-Besse performed retro-fill activities on eleven PCB transformers between 1987 and 1992. The only remaining PCB containing equipment onsite are a limited number of capacitors.
These capacitors are being replaced and disposed of during scheduled maintenance activities.
Clean Air Act The Clean Air Act identifies substances that are considered air pollutants. Davis-Besse holds an OEPA permit to operate an Air Contaminant Source for the station Auxiliary Boiler. This boiler is used to heat the station and provide steam to plant systems when the reactor is not operating.
A report detailing the Auxiliary Boiler operation is submitted annually.
The Ohio EPA has granted an exemption from permitting our six emergency diesel engines, in-cluding the Station Blackout Diesel Generator, the 2 Emergency Diesel Generators, the Emer-gency Response Facility Diesel Generator, the Miscellaneous Diesel, and the Fire Pump Diesel.
These sources are operated infrequently to verify their reliability, and would only be used in the event of an emergency.
In response to recent "Clean Air Act Title V" legislation, an independent study identifying and quantifying all of the air pollution sources onsite was performed. Of particular significance is asbestos removal from renovation and demolition projects for which USEPA has outlined spe-139
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report cific regulations concerning handling, removal, environmental protection, and disposal. Also, the Occupational Safety and Health Protection Administration (OSHA) strictly regulates asbestos with a concem for worker protection. Removal teams must meet medical surveillance, respirator fit tests, and training requirements prior to removing asbestos-containing material. Asbestos is not considered a hazardous waste by RCRA, but the EPA does require special handling and dis-posal of this waste under the Clean Air Act.
Transportation Safety Act The transportation of hazardous chemicals, including chemical waste, is regulated by the Trans-portation Safety Act of 1976. These regulations are enforced by the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) and cover all aspects of transporting hazardous materials, including pack-ing, handling, labeling, marking, and placarding. Before any wastes are transported off site, Davis-Besse must ensure that the wastes are identified, labeled and marked according to DOT regulations, including verification that the vehicle has appropriate placards and it is in good oper-ating condition.
Other Environmental Programs Underground Storage Tanks According to RCRA, facilities with Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) are required to notify the State. This regulation was implemented in order to provided protection from tank contents leaking and causing damage to the environment. Additional standards require leak detection systems and performance standards for new tanks. At Davis-Besse two 40,000 gallon and one 8,000 gallon diesel fuel storage tanks are registered USTs.
Spill Kits Spill control equipment is maintained throughout the Station at chemical storage areas and haz-ardous chemical and oil use areas. Equipment in the kits may include chemical-resistant cover-alls, gloves, boots, decontamination agents, absorbent cloth, goggles and warning signs.
Waste Minimization and Recycling Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is normal trash produced by individuals at home and by indus-tries. In some communities, MSW is bumed in specially designed incinerators to produce power or is separated into waste types (such as aluminum, glass, and paper) and recycled. The vast majority of MSW is sent to landfills for disposal. As the population increases and older landfills reach their capacity, MSW disposal becomes an important economic, health, and resource issue.
The State of Ohio has addressed the issue with the State Solid Waste Management Plan, other-wise known as Ohio House Bill 592. The intent of the bill is to extend the life of existing land-fills by reducing the amount of MSW produced, by reusing certain waste material, and by recy-cling other wastes. This is frequently referred to as "Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle."
140
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Davis-Besse has implemented and participated in company wide programs that emphasize the reduction, reuse, recycle approach to MSW management. An active Investment Recovery Pro-gram has greatly contributed to the reduction of both hazardous and municipal waste generated by evaluating options for uses of surplus materials prior to the materials entering Davis-Besse's waste streams. Such programs include paper, cardboard, aluminum cans, used tires, and metals recycling or recovery. Paper and cardboard recycling is typically in excess of 50 tons annually.
This represents a large volume of recyclable resources, which would have otherwise been placed in a landfill. Aluminum soft drink cans are collected for the Boy Scouts of America to recycle.
Additionally, lead-acid batteries are recycled and tires are returned to the seller for proper dis-posal.
Although scrap metal is not usually considered part of the MSW stream, Davis-Besse does col-lect and recycle scrap metals, which are sold at current market price to a scrap dealer for resource recovery. These programs are continuously being expanded and reinforced as other components of MSW stream are targeted for reduction.

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report APPENDIX A Interlaboratory Comparison Program Results Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory, formerly Teledyne Brown Engineering Environmental Services Midwest Laboratory has participated in interlaboratory comparison (crosscheck) programs since the formulation of it's quality control program in December 1971. These programs are operated by agencies which supply environmental type samples (e.g., mile or water) containing concentrations of radionuclides known to the issuing agency but not to participant laboratories. The purpose of such a program is to provide an independent check on a laboratory's analytical procedures and to alert it of any possible problems.
Participant laboratories measure the concentration of specified radionuclides and report them to the issuing agency. Several months later, the agency reports the known values to the participant laboratories and specifies control limits. Results consistently higher or lower than the known values or outside the control limits indicate a need to check the instruments or procedures used.
Results in Table A-1 were obtained through participation in the environmental sample crosscheck program administered by Environmental Resources Associates, serving as a replacement for studies conducted previously by the U.S. EPA Environmental Monitoring Systems Laboratory, Las Vegas, Nevada.
The results in Table A-2 were obtained for Thermoluminescent Dosimeters (TLDs), via International Intercomparison of Environmental Dosimeters under the sponsorships listed in Table A-2. Results of intemal laboratory testing is also listed.
Table A-3 lists results of the analyses on in-house "spiked" samples for the past twelve months. All samples are prepared using NIST traceable sources. Data foar previous years available upon request.

Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Enviromnental Operating Report APPENDIX B DATA REPORTING CONVENTIONS 162
Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station 2002 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Data Reporting Conventions 1.0. All activities, except gross alpha and gross beta, are decay corrected to collection time or the end of the collection period.
2.0. Sinale Measurements Each single measurement is reported as follows: x*s where: x = value of the measurement; s = 2s counting uncertainty (corresponding to the 95% confidence level).
In cases where the activity is less than the lower limit of detection L, it is reported as: cL, where L = the lower limit of detection based on 4.66s uncertainty for a background sample.
3.0. DuDlicate analyses 3.1 Individual results: For two analysis results; xl *s1 and X2 +s2 Renorted result: x
- s; where x = (1/2) (xl + x2) and s = (1/2)JS2 3.2. Individual results: <LI, L2 ReDorted result: <L, where L = lower of L1 and L2 3.3. Individual results: x +/- s, <L Reported result: x t s if x L; <L otherwise.
4.0. Comr,utation of Averaaes and Standard Deviations 4.1 Averages and standard deviations listed in the tables are computed from all of the individual measurements over the period averaged; for example, an annual standard deviation would not be the average of quarterly standard deviations. The average x and standard deviation s of a set of n numbers x1, x2 . . xn are defined as follows:
_ 1 ID X X)2 x=-Zx s= 1 n n-l 4.2 Values below the highest lower limit of detection are not included in the average.
4.3 If all values in the averaging group are less than the highest LLD, the highest LLD is reported.
4.4 If all but one of the values are less than the highest LLD, the single value x and associated two sigma error is reported.
4.5 In rounding off, the following rules are followed:
4.5.1. If the number following those to be retained is less than 5, the number is dropped, and the retained number s are kept unchanged. As an example, 11.443 is rounded off to 11.44.
4.5.2. If the number following those to be retained is equal to or greater than 5, the number is dropped and the last retained number is raised by 1. As an example, 11.445 is rounded off to 11.45.

b LLD = nominal lower limit of detection based on a 4.66 sigma counting error for background sample.
Mean and range are based on detectable measurements only (i.e., >LLD) Fraction of detectable measurements at specfied locations Is indicated In parentheses SF).
Locations are specified by station code (Table 4.1) and distance (miles) and direction relative to reactor site..
Non-routine results are those which exceed ten times the control station value.
