Tab 8 EP-PS-1 30-8 PPL EMERGENCY PERSONNEL DOSE ASSESSMENT AND PROTECTIVE ACTION RECOMMENDATION (PAR) GUIDE CHECK 0 1.0 Limits for EMERGENCY doses.

3 1.1 An EMERGENCY DOSE AUTHORIZATION (see EMERGENCY EXPOSURE EXTENSIONS) may be granted in order to protect facilities, and or equipment to substantially limit the escape of radioactive effluents or control fires. The maximum planned doses are:

1.1.1 Whole body (TEDE)(') dose shall not exceed 10 rem.

1.1.2 Dose to any organ (CDE)(2), including the skin and extremity (SDE)(3), shall not exceed 100 rem.

1.1.3 Dose to the lens of the eye shall not exceed 30 rem (LDE)(4).

O 1.2 An EMERGENCY dose authorization may be granted for life-saving actions or protection of large populations. The maximum doses are:

1.2.1 Planned whole body (TEDE)(1 ) doses shall not exceed 25 rem.

1.2.2 Planned dose to any organ (CDE) 2 ), including skin and extremity doses, shall not exceed 250 rem.

1.2.3 Dose to the lens of the eye shall not exceed 75 rem (LDE)(4).

1.3 RARE situations may occur.in which a dose GREATER THAN those specified in SECTION 1.2 above for emergency dose would be unavoidable to carry out a lifesaving operation or to avoid extensive exposure of large populations. It is not possible to prejudge the risk that one should be allowed to take to save lives of others, therefore no upper limit has been established.

(1) The sum of the Effective Dose Equivalent resulting from the exposure to external sources and the Committed Effective Dose Equivalent incurred from all significant inhalation pathways during the early phase.

(2) The Committed Dose Equivalent to the thyroid from radiolodine.

(3) Shallow Dose Equivalent.

(4) Lens Dose Equivalent.

Tab 8 EP-PS-1 30-8 PPL EMERGENCY PERSONNEL DOSE ASSESSMENT AND PROTECTIVE ACTION RECOMMENDATION (PAR) GUIDE CHECK 0 2.0 For any EMERGENCY EXPOSURE OR ACCIDENTAL OVEREXPOSURE, the assessment actions in step 2 of the EMERGENCY EXPOSURE EXTENSIONS must be performed.

3.0 PROTECTIVE ACTIONS 3 3.1 Potassium Iodide 3.1.1 For thyroid doses that are strongly expected to exceed 10 rem (CDE) (2), ingestion of a KI dose of 130 mg (100mg - iodine) should be recommended, except as noted in paragraph 3.1.2, to personnel whose emergency assignment or qualifications do not allow other protective measures to be taken (e.g. respiratory protection, evacuation, relocation, etc.) to maintain the dose to the thyroid at less than 10 rem.

NOTE: HHSIFDA guidance is that adults over 40 years of age need take KI only in the case of a projected large internal radiation dose to the thyroid ( > 500 rem) to prevent hypothyroidism; the guidance is 10 rem for adults over age. 18 to age 40.

3.1.2 KI should not be administered to any emergency worker who:

a. does not concur with its use, or
b. has a known allergic reaction to iodine and/or foods containing iodine such as shellfish, or
c. has been directed by their Physician or Pharmacist to avoid ingestion of iodine and/or foods containing iodine such as shellfish.

(2) The Committed Dose Equivalent to the thyroid from radioiodine.

EP-AD-O00-125, Revision 9, Page 3 of 13

Tab 8 EP-PS-1 30-8 PPL EMERGENCY PERSONNEL DOSE ASSESSMENT AND PROTECTIVE ACTION RECOMMENDATION (PAR) GUIDE CHECK O 3.1.3 Onsite issuance of KI for iodine prophylaxis requires the approval of the EMERGENCY DIRECTOR. Issuance to EOF and FIELD EMERGENCY MONITORING/SAMPLING TEAM personnel requires the approval of the RECOVERY MANAGER when the EOF has relieved the TSC of emergency management activities.

The EMERGENCY DIRECTOR will approve issuance prior to that time. These approvals must be documented on the POTASSiUM IODIDE (KI) TRACKING FORM.

3.1.4 Unless the EMERGENCY DIRECTOR or RECOVERY MANAGER instructs personnel to do otherwise, the KI tablets should generally be taken as soon as possible after thyroid dose exceeding 10 rem CDE (2) is projected.

NOTE: Stable iodine (KI) is most effective when administered immediately prior to exposure to radioiodine. Significant blockage of the thyroid dose can be provided by administration within a few hours after uptake of radiolodine.

3.15 In the event a significant exposure to the thyroid is projected to continue over a period of several days the CONSULTING RADIOLOGICAL PHYSICIAN should be requested to provide a recommended KI dosage for subsequent KI usage. (See Emergency Telephone Directory for telephone number.)

3.16 Until input/advice from the CONSULTING RADIOLOGICAL PHYSICIAN is available, a quarter of a tablet should be taken on days of exposure that follow the day on which the initial full tablet dose (130 mg) was taken.

3.17 If a worker expresses concern with the use of KI and/or is unsure if it will interact with his/her current medication,

a. the CONSULTING RADIOLOGICAL PHYSICIAN should be requested to provide input/advice to the individual concerning the administration and cessation of KI use prior to its ingestion by the individual. (See Emergency Telephone Directory for telephone number.)

(2) The Committed Dose Equivalent to the thyroid from radioiodine.

Tab 8 EP-PS-1 30-8 PPL EMERGENCY PERSONNEL DOSE ASSESSMENT AND PROTECTIVE ACTION RECOMMENDATION (PAR) GUIDE CHECK D

b. control and track workers' dose, to limit their projected thyroid dose to 40 rem total organ dose. As warranted, ensure adjusted RWP controls and dose extensions are in place.

3.1.8 Should the projected dose to the thyroid not exceed 10 rem CDE (2) but the worker expresses the strong desire to use KI, the worker may do so at his/her own risk. In such case, the RPC or DASU as appropriate will inform the worker of the potential risks and benefits as described below and will recommend the person contact the CONSULTING RADIOLOGIC-AL PHYSICIAN for further guidance.

NOTE: Radiation exposure to the thyroid glands of adults does not appear to lead to cancer but has been shown to cause other deterministic effects (such as hypothyroidism resulting from thyroid ablation) from very high radiation doses to the thyroid.

For persons over 40 years of age, HHS/FDA recommends KI only for projected doses to the thyroid of above 500 rem, to prevent hypothyroidism.

The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP Report No. 55) concludes that the risk of adverse effects from use of KI is on the order of 5 in 10 million.

In some cases, hyperthyroidism (excessive functional activity of the thyroid gland) is possible.

Those most at risk are patients with thyroid pathologies. This is most common in patients with goiter. This complication can be serious when the person also has heart disease. The risk of adverse effects is higher in adults of age 45 years and older, due to the frequency of diagnosed and sub-clinical thyroid disease and the use of certain prescription pharmaceuticals that would lead to a drug interaction.

°2) The Committed Dose Equivalent to the thyroid from radioiodine.

EP-AD-000-125, Revision 9, Page 5 of 13

Tab 8 EP-PS-1 30-8 PPL EMERGENCY PERSONNEL DOSE ASSESSMENT AND PROTECTIVE ACTION RECOMMENDATION (PAR) GUIDE CHECK0 HHS/FDA observes that short-term administration of KI at thyroid blocking doses is safe. The risks of stable iodine administration include sialadenitis (an inflammation of the salivary gland), gastrointestinal disturbances, allergic reactions, and minor rashes.

Other risks may apply if repeated doses of KI are ingested.

3.1.9 If the individual states the intent to take KI absent a projected dose of 10 rem (CDE)(2) or more, the RPC or DASU will document in his/her logbook that individual's intent,ithat information on risks and benefits was described to the individual, and the statement that the individual was notified that ingestion was at the individual's own risk.

3.1.10 For an injured and/or contaminated worker sent to a hospital for treatment, the patient will be under the care of the attending physician. As such, plant procedures no longer apply and KI issuance will be at the discretion of the attending physician. The physician can rely on a senior Health Physics Technician Level II or Health Physics Management to provide the in-plant radiological data on which to base their decision.

o 3.2 Protective measures should be implemented for EOF personnel at the direction of the DOSE ASSESSMENT SUPERVISOR, within the bounds of RWPs #8001 and #8002. Consultation with and approval by the RPC is needed for RWP revisions.

o 3.3 Exposures to members of local offsite support groups, (ambulance workers, fire fighters) shall not exceed 500 mrem (TEDE)(1) for the performance of support duties on the site of the Susquehanna SES.

(2) The Committed Dose Equivalent to the thyroid from radioiodine.

(1) The sum of the Effective Dose Equivalent resulting from the exposure to external sources and the Committed Effective Dose Equivalent incurred from all significant inhalation pathways during the early phase.

EP-AD-000-1 12, Revision 21, Page 7 of 40

Tab 11 EP-PS-130-1 1 NOTE (1): MIDAS assumes the reactor must be shutdown before a release can occur. The TRIP DATE triggers the start of decay for the accident mix.

NOTE (2): Even during an ATWS, where a release is in progress and the reactor has not shut down, a TRIP DATE must be entered to run MIDAS. It is recommended the same date and time for the START OF RELEASE be used for the TRIP DATE. Entering a date and time for reactor trip has no impact on decay of the ATWS mix.

b. On Line 2, select START OF RELEASE. Using the calendar wheel, enter the appropriate date and time of the start of release. CONFIRM to close the calendar wheel.
1) If START NEW SCENARIO was selected,he START OF RELEASE date/time entered should be the current date/time at which you are starting the calculation.
2) If CURRENT SCENARIO EDIT was selected, the previously entered START OF RELEASE should still be used, if met/vent date have been entered for each 15-minute period since that START OF RELEASE. Otherwise, select RESET until START NEW SCENARIO is selected.

1. CALCULATION TYPE Menu option chosen for the calculation. Examples are Forward Calculation or Event Tree Calculation.
2. CURRENT TIME PERIOD Current meteorological time period used for dose projections provided on quarter hour increments to match met spreadsheet entries.
3. WEATHER CONDITIONS Meteorological data (wind speed, wind direction, affectedsector, stability class,.

and precipitation rate) used for the summary report dose projections.

4. REACTOR SHUTDOWN TIME Date and time of reactor shutdown.
5. RELEASE START TIME This is the date and time of first dose calculation as indicated by the first positive vent release rate value entered on the vent data spreadsheet or if the vent spreadsheet is not used, the date and time of the calculation..

NOTE: For MENU C: EVENT TREE NUREG-1228 CALCULATIONS, MENU D: DEFAULT CALCULATIONS, and MENU E-W: BACK CALCULATIONS, it is conservatively assumed that the date and time of reactor shutdown is concurrent with the start of release.

6. PROJECTION TIME This is the time X hours into the future, starting from the beginning of the current meteorological time period. WXis the number of hours the user chooses as the projection time (e.g., 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br />).

Tab 11 EP-PS-1 30-11 S. SOURCE TERM (for Forward and Back Calculations)

Identifies the source term used for the current dose projection summary report calculations. Choice of six options:

  • (LOCA) Coolant Activity Leak with Depressurization Spike-No Fuel Damage
  • (LOCA) Cladding Failure-Gap Release
  • (LOCA) Fuel Melt-Early In-Vessel Release
  • Fuel Handling Accident
9. RELEASE CONDITIONS This section lists the release rates used in the calculation. The values are taken from user input for Forward calculations, inferred from user input of event conditions (Event Tree, Default, and Blowout Panel calculations, or inferred from user input of measured data in the field (Back calculations).
10. Content of this section varies by Calculation Type. The objective is to provide information about the assumptions used to infer the Release Conditions for the calculation or to provide additional information about the Release Conditions.

For Forward Calculations, isotopic release ratios are provided. These may be compared to default ratios and used to infer plant conditions, for example, status of filtration.

For Event Tree, Default, and Blowout Panel Calculations-, event or default conditions are listed. From those conditions, Release Conditions are inferred.

For Back Calculations, measured field data are listed. From those data, Release Conditions are inferred.

11. DOSE RATE PROJECTIONS This table provides the TEDE, EDE, and THYROID CDE dose rates calculated at the OSCAR and EPB distances. These rate calculations are based on a variable projection/integration period for the current affected sector or peak sector (the usual user selection).

EP-AD-000-1 12, Revision 21, Page 30 of 40

Tab 11 EP-PS-1 30-11

12. INTEGRATED DOSE PROJECTIONS This table provides a TEDE and THYROID CDE dose projection calculated at the EPB, 2-mile, and 10-mile distances for varying projection times. The projection time will appear in the header line e.g., 4 HOUR INTEGRATED DOSE PROJECTION. The sector designation for this dose projection is based on the maximum calculated dose determined from all sixteen sectors for the given projection time (peak sector option, usually the user's choice) or the calculated dose for the current affected sector. Information for distances between 10 and 50 miles is available using the "More Reports" feature.
13. PERFORMEDIAPPROVED The sign-off for calculation results is done for documentation purposes. The intended "approval" does not necessarily mean an independent verification of each input to the calculation but more an interactive discussion between the RPC/HP Level II Dose Calculator and/or DASU/DAST (or dose calculator) to ensure the calculated results are reasonable based on current plant and environmental information.

This sign-off process should occur before the calculated results are used for any emergency classification determinations or protective action recommendations.

1. NORMAL REACTOR COOLANT ACTIVITY This accident scenario is defined as the release of reactor coolant system liquid and steam activity from the primary coolant system with no damage to the fuel and no activity spiking. The source term for this accident is normal reactor coolant system liquid and steam activity.
2. LOCA (RX DP-NO FD)

This accident scenario is defined as the release of reactor coolant system liquid and steam activity from the primary coolant system. Depressurization of the primary coolant system is assumed, resulting in an activity spike in the reactor coolant. The source term for this accident is normal reactor coolant liquid and steam activity plus the depressurization activity spike. There is no fuel damage.

3. LOCA (CLAD FAILURE)

This accident scenario is defined as a Loss-of-Coolant Accident which results in damage to the reactor fuel cladding. The source term for this accident is hornal reactor coolant liquid and steam activity and a percentage of the activity iri the fuel clad gap. For Menu D calculations, that percentage is entered as part of the calculation process. For Menu B calculations, the valid vent data entered define the severity of the event.

4. LOCA (FUEL MELT)

This accident scenario is defined as a Loss-of-Coolant Accident which results in damage to the reactor fuel. The source term for this accident is normal reactor coolant liquid and steam activity and a percentage of the activity in the reactor fuel. For Menu D calculations, that percentage is entered as part of the calculation process. For Menu B calculations, the valid vent data entered define the severity of the event.

5. FUEL HANDLING ACCIDENT This accident scenario is defined as a fuel handling accident which results in the release of spent fuel activity. The source term for this accident is spent fuel gap activity assuming a decay time after shutdown of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

Tab 11 EP-PS-1 30-11

6. ATWS This accident scenario is used for releases from a reactor unit continuing to operate at or greater than 10% power. The source term for this accident is normal reactor coolant system liquid and steam activity. The source term is undecayed; that is, no reactor trip is assumed to have occurred.

NOTE (1): For Menu D calculations, design basis assumptions are utilized.

For example, design basis leakage rates are assumed and iodine filtration efficiency of 99% is assumed in those pathways for which filters are in place.

NOTE (2): The source term for Menu D accident types is fixed. Release rate is calculated by MIDAS by dividing the total activity released by a predetermined release duration (6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> for all but fuel handling accidents, for which release duration is 2 heurs). -

NUREG 1228 EVENT TREE ACCIDENT TYPES (MENU C)

1. LOCA - DRYWELL RELEASE This accident is a Loss-of-Coolant Accident with an activity release into the drywell which bypasses the suppression pool for which filtration of activity by the Standby Gas Treatment System takes place before release to the environment
2. LOCA - WETWELL RELEASE This accident is a Loss-of-Coolant Accident with an activity release through the suppression pool for which filtration of activity by the Standby Gas Treatment System takes place before release to the environment.
3. LOCA - CONTAINMENT BYPASS RELEASE This accident is a Loss-of-Coolant Accident with an activity release to the environment that bypasses the containment and the Standby Gas Treatment System.
4. ZiRCALLOY FIRE IN ONE THREE MONTH OLD BATCH This accident is a zircalloy fire in spent fuel that results in an activity release similar to a core melt. It assumes that the activity is filtered by the Standby Gas Treatment System prior to release.

EP-AD-000-1 12, Revision 21, Page 35 of 40

Tab 11 EP-PS-1 30-11

5. SPENT FUEL GAP RELEASE This accident is a release of fuel gap activity from the spent fuel pool with treatment by the Standby Gas Treatment System prior to release.

NOTE: Menu C (from NUREG-1 228 Event Tree Analyses) is used to relatively quickly provide a bounding estimate of offsite dose, for situations where there are substantial uncertainties in prediction of source term and any resultant doses.
