Aquatic Environment Surface water and drinking water samples were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta, tritium, iodine- 131, and gamma emitting nuclides. Drinking water samples were also analyzed for concentrations of gross alpha. Gross alpha and beta activities detected were consistent with those reported in previous years.

Iodine- 131 activity was detected in 10 of 36 surface water samples. The activity was slightly above the MDC.

Evidence indicates that it is there only as the result of the discharge of medical waste to the Susquehanna or Lackawanna Rivers through sewage treatment plants upstream of the SSES.

Iodine-1 31 was not reported to have been discharged with water released from the SSES to the Susquehanna River during 2004.

Summary and Conclusions Relative Radionuclide Activity TERRESTRIAL PATHWAY Levels in Selected Media Some media monitored in the PERCENT TOTAL environment are significant for the GAMMA ACTIVITY numbers of gamma-emitting radionuclides routinely measured at SO5 levels exceeding analysis MDCs.

Sediment in the aquatic pathway and soil in the terrestrial pathway are two such media.

The following graphs show the relative activity contributions for the types of gamma-emitting radionuclides reported at levels above the analysis MDCs in ss wyode sm sediment and soil at indicator locations during 2004.

AQUATIC PATHWAY Naturally occurring radionuclides PERCENT TOTAL accounted for 99.8 % of the gamma-GAMMA ACTIVITY emitting activity in both sediment and soil in 2004.

Summant and Conclusions Radionuclides Contributingto Dosefrom SSES Operation Of the three man-made radionuclides reported in the environment by the SSES REMP (i.e. H-3, 1-131 and Cs-137), tritium is the only radionuclide attributable to SSES operation.

The whole body and organ dose to members of the public attributable to tritium identified in REMP blowdown samples was 0.0015 mrem.

Tritium was included in the dose calculation because it was identified in the REMP samples of water being discharged to the river. The concentration of tritium in the water and the volume of water discharged were used to determine the amount of tritium released. The presumed exposure pathways to the public from this radionuclide were drinking water taken from the Susquehanna River at Danville, PA, and eating fish caught near the SSES discharge to the river.

This assumption is based on the fact that tritium does not emit gamma radiation and the beta radiation emitted by tritium is not sufficiently penetrating to reach an individual on the shore.

. , X Introduction Radioactivity levels in environmental media are usually so low that their measurements, even with state-of-the-art measurement methods, typically have significant degrees of uncertainty associated with them.(Reference 5) As a result, expressions are often used when referring to these measurements that convey information about the levels being measured relative to the measurement sensitivities. Terms such as "minimum detectable concentration" (MDC) are used for this purpose. The formulas used to calculate MDCs may be found in procedures referenced in Appendix A.

The methods of measurement for sample radioactivity levels used by PPL's contracted REMP radioanalytical laboratories are capable of meeting the analysis sensitivity requirements found in the SSES Technical Requirements.

The upstream monitoring following media in the aquatic pathway: locations serve as controls to provide surface water, drinking water, fish, and data for comparison with downstream sediment. Some of the media (e.g., monitoring results. The potential exists drinking water and fish) provide for radioactive material that might be information that can be especially useful present in SSES airborne releases to to the estimation of possible dose to the enter the Susquehanna River upstream public from potentially ingested of the plant through either direct radioactivity, if detected. Other media, deposition (e.g., settling or washout) or such as sediment, can be useful for. by way of runoff from deposition on trending radioactivity levels in the land adjacent to the river. However, aquatic pathway, primarily because of direct deposition and runoff are their tendency to assimilate certain considered to be insignificant as means materials that might enter the surface of entry for SSES radioactivity into the water to which they are exposed. The Susquehanna River when compared to results from monitoring all of these liquid discharges under normal media provide a picture of the aquatic conditions.

The preoperational years 1976, 1978, and 1980 were exceptional years in the sense that iodine-131 activity was observed in excess of MDCs due to fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons testing. Iodine-131 activity was also measured at levels exceeding MDCs in milk samples in 1986 in the vicinity of the SSES as a result of the Chernobyl incident.

With the exception of the naturally occurring potassium-40, no gamma-emitting radionuclides were measured in excess of analysis MDCs in 2004.

The 2004 means for indicator and control location sample potassium-40 activity were 1,401 pCi/liter and 1,455 pCi/liter, respectively. The potassium-40 activity in milk is not attributable to SSES operation because it is naturally occurring.

Potassium-40 was reported in 1979, 1981, 1985, 1991, 1992, 1993, and 1997. Thorium-228 was found in 1985 and 1986. The man-made radionuclide cesium-137 has been detected only occasionally since 1979. Its presence has always been attributed to residual fallout from previous atmospheric nuclear weapons tests.

Results for the 2004 specific ground water sample analyses may be found in Table 1-7 of Appendix I. A summary of the 2004 ground water monitoring data may be located in Appendix G.

Comparisons of 2004 monitoring results for tritium with those of past years may be found in Table H 20 of Appendix H.

During 2004, tritium was measured above MDC in one sample at control location 12F3 at a concentration of 128 pCi/l. The activity was slightly above the detection limit. The 2004 indicator values ranged from -44.3 to 123 pC/l, compared to -67.4 to 193 pC/I for 2003.

Direct Radiation Monitoring

~,j -,

Eighty-four TLD monitoring locations were utilized for direct radiation measurements; during 2003. A reduction of twenty-six TLDs in the field was implemented in 2004. As a result fifty-eight TLDs were utilized in the field for direct radiation monitoring in 2004.

The elimination of TLDs was due to the proximiity of other TLD monitoring locations to the deleted sites and the range of distances from the SSES at which some of thedTLDs are located. The extra 26 TLD locations did not provide additional benefit and were deleted.

from the monitoring program in 2004.

Air Monitorin2 There were no changes to the air monitoring program during 2004.

Surface Water and Drinking Water Monitoring In 2004 the frequency of 1-131 analysis for surface and drinking water samples was revised from bi-weekly to monthly (on a two week composite sample). The monitoring locations affected by this change are as follows:

  • 08/02/2004 - Location lOG1 due to curdled milk unable to be analyzed
  • 09/01/2004 - Location lODI and 10D2 due to curdled milk unable to be analyzed
  • The affected milk analyses were not incorporated into Appendix I or G.
5. TLD measurement results for locations 15A3, 12D2, and 16A2 could not be analyzed for the following reasons:

2 nd Quarter 2004 - 15A3 and 12D2 were lost in the field, no data.

3 rd Quarter 2004 - 16A2 lost in the field, no data.

4th Quarter 2004 - ID5 and I lEI were water damaged, not able to process.

In 2004 the SSES REMP overall performance was as follows:

Sample Collection 850 of 850 samples were collected.

Sample Analysis 1388 of 1395 analyses were performed on 850 samples.

TLD Direct Radiation Measurements 253 of 258 TLD measurements were analyzed.

Each discrepancy was reviewed to understand the causes of the program exception.

Sampling analysis deficiencies were reviewed with the responsible individuals to prevent recurrence. Occasional equipment breakdowns were unavoidable. For 2004 the surface water automatic composite samples (2S7 and 6S6) each operated 358 of 365 days of the year at 98% operability. All other sampling equipment operated without any breakdowns for 100% of the year.

TLD Locations for the SSES Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program - 2004 a) All distances from the SSES to monitoring locations are measured from the standby gas treatment vent at 44200/N34117 (Pa. Grid System). The location codes are based on both distance and direction from the SSES. The letters in the location codes indicate if the monitoring locations are on site (within the site boundary) or, if they are not on site, the approximate distances of the locations from the SSES as described below:

S - on site E- 4-5 miles A - <1 mile F- 5-10 miles B 2 miles G 20 miles C 3 miles H- >20 miles D 4 miles * - Special interest areas

    • - Control TLDs The numbers preceding the letters in the location codes provide the directions of the monitoring locations from the SSES by indicating the sectors in which they are located. A total of 16 sectors (numbered I through 16) equally divide an imaginary circle on a map of the SSES and its vicinity, with the SSES at the center of the circle. The middle of sector 1 is directed due north (N). Moving clockwise from sector 1,the sector immediately adjacent to sector 1 is sector 2, the middle of which is directed due north, northeast (YNE). Continuing to move clockwise, the sector numbers increase to 16, which'is the north, northwest sector.

The numbers following the letters'in the location codes are used to differentiate-sampling locations found in the same sectors at approximately the same distances from the SSES.

APpendix D 2004 LAND USE CENSUS RESULTS The SSES Technical Requirements require that a census be'conducted annually during the growing season to determine the' location of the nearest milk animal, residence'and garden greater than 50 m2 (approx. 500 ft2 ) producing broad leaf -vegetation' within a distance of 8 km (approx. 5 miles) in each of the 16 meteorological sectors surrounding the SSES. To comply with this requirement, a land-use census was conducted for the SSES during 2004.

SUMMARY

OF CHANGES FROM 2003 TO 2004 Residence Census:

The residence census was conducted from 11 IAugust through 15 September 2004.

Distances of the nearest residences from the'Suscjuehanna'SES in the 16 different sectors ranged from 0.5 (J.Futoma, sector 7) to 2.1 miles (R. Barberi, sector 4), with an average of approximately 1.0 miles.

Changes from the 2003 census are as follows:

1) F. Michael (Sector 12)@ 1.3 mile replaced W. Kisner (deceased) @ 1.1 mile.
2) H. Long (Sector 15) @ 0.8 mile replaced.L. Hidlay (residence unoccupied) @

0.8 mile.

Garden Census:

The garden census was conducted fr6m 11 August through 15 September 2004.

Distances of the nearest gardens from the Susquehanna SES in the 16 different sectors ranged from 0.6 miles (T. Scholl, sector 7) to 4.0 miles (P. Culver, sector 16), with an average of 1.9 miles. Changes from the 2003 census in gardens had no impact on the intended sampling of fruits and vegetables during 2004. Because of the milk monitoring that is performed, there is no requirement to sample from gardens that have a potential for the deposition of activity by way of the airborne pathway.

Changes from the 2003 census are as follows:

1) M. Zaletko (Sector 8) @ 1.6 mile replaced D. Dawson (no garden this year) @

1.5 mile.

2) F. Michael (Sector 12 ) @ 1.3 mile replaced W. Kisner (deceased) @ 1.1 mile.
3) P. Moskaluk (Sector 14) @ 1.3 mile had a garden in 2004,;but not in 2003.

Dairy Animal Census: i Ten dairy animal sites were identified in the census conducted from 12 through 18 August 2004. The number of sites were the same as in 2003. Cows were present at all, sites; no dairy goats were found. ;

Appendix D Irrigation Irigated fruits and vegetables were monitored at one indicator location during 2004. No other fields within 10 miles down river of Susquehanna SES were irrigated in 2004, including the Lupini Farm "Route 93 Nescopeck Field" (11D2), Chapin Farm "Drake Field" (11F2), and Zehner Farm (1 IDI) because wet weather prevailed much of the spring and summer. The Lupini Farm (12F7) in Mifflinville briefly irrigated potatoes in June 2004 using the Susquehanna River water.

Appendix G The averages for indicator and control locations reported in the Summary of Data Table, which summarizes the entire year's results for the SSES REMP, were calculated using all measured values, when available, whether or not they were reported in Appendix I tables. Values below the MDCs, even zeroes and negatives, were part of the averaging process for these analysis results. When no measured results are available in these cases, "LLD" is reported.

Preferably, the averages reported in the Summary of Data table for sample media that are normally collected continuously are determined using only results from continuously collected samples. Occasionally, grab samples are taken for these media when equipment malfunctions or other anomalies preclude or otherwise perturb routine continuous sampling. These grab samples are taken to minimize the time periods when no sampling is being performed, or, in some instances, when continuous sampling is considered to be nonrepresentative.

Because grab samples are snapshots of the media over brief periods, it is preferiable not to average the analysis results of these samples with those for continuously collected composite samples. However, when equipment malfunctions are protracted, relatively large periods of time could be entirely unrepresented by averages if the results from grab sample analyses are not considered.

Allowing analysis results for grab samples to be weighted equally with those representing relatively large periods of time would tend to bias the resulting averages unjustifiably towards the conditions at the times that the grabs are obtained. Averages obtained in this way might less accurately reflect the conditions for the combined period of continuous sampling and grab sampling than if only the results from continuous sampling were used. On the other hand, using weighting factors for the analysis results of grab samples derived from the actual time it takes to collect those samples would lead to the grab sample analysis results having a negligible effect on the overall average and not justifying the effort involved.

Grab samples collected in lieu of normal continuous sampling are typically obtained at regular intervals corresponding to the intervals (weekly) at which the continuously collected samples would usually be retrieved for eventual compositing. For example, grab samples are collected once a week but may be composited monthly in place of continuously collected samples that would normally be retrieved weekly and composited monthly. Since each grab sample is used to represent an entire week, albeit imperfect, it is reasonable to weight the analysis results the same. Thus, the results of one weekly grab are given approximately one-fourth the weight of the results for a monthly composite sample collected continuously for each of the four weeks in a month. Similarly, the analysis results of a composite of four weekly grab samples would carry the same weight as the analysis results for a composite of four weeks of continuously collected sample.

Appendir G The last three (3) pages of Appendix G are corrections to the 2000, 2002 and 2003 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Reports Appendix G.

The corrections to the 2002 and 2003 Appendix G are: 1) under the LOCATION WITH THE HIGHEST MEAN column for air particulates - Gross Beta, the range of data has been revised. The previously reported range was calculated incorrectly due to a spreadsheet error; 2) the air iodine results previously reported were not in the correct units (E-03 pCi/M3 ), thus the values were reported 1,000 times lower than the correct values. Air iodine results from the analysis laboratory are reported in pCi/M3 . The analysis laboratory results for air iodine were not multiplied by 1,000 to correspond with the units reported in the Appendix G table.

The corrections to the 2000 Appendix G are: 1) under the ALL INDICATOR LOCATIONS MEAN column for air particulates - Gross Beta, the mean value and corresponding range have been revised; 2) under the LOCATION WITH THE HIGHEST MEAN column for air particulates - Gross Beta, the location, mean and corresponding range have been revised; 3) the air iodine results previously reported were not in the correct units (E-03 pCi/M3 ), thus the values were reported 1,000 times lower than the correct values. Air iodine results from the analysis laboratory are reported in pCi/M3 . The analysis laboratory results for air iodine were not multiplied by 1,000 to correspond with the units reported in the Appendix G table. All air iodine sample results for 2000, 2002, and 2003 were less than LLD. After correction the results are consistent with previous SSES operational history.

The corrections outlined above do not impact any conclusions documented in the referenced reports.

I Appendix H The data presented in the following tables were included if specific analysis results routinely exceeded the applicable MDCs in 2004 and/or routinely may have done so in previous years. The comparisons may be useful for observing any step changes that may occur in the environment over a wide area. However, the importance attached to these comparisons should be tempered by the understanding that changes in methods of analysis, typical MDCs achieved by the analyses, and averaging methods over the years may tend to blur the picture in some cases.

Appendix I Results of analyses are generally reported in the following tables to two significant figures. Random uncertainties of counting are reported to the same decimal place as the result.

Calculated values for analysis results are reported with the random uncertainty of counting at two standard deviations (2S), determined by considering both the sample and background count rates. The uncertainty of an activity is influenced by the volume or mass of the sample, the background count rate, the count times, the method used to round off the value obtained to reflect its degree of significance, and other factors. The uncertainties of activities determined by gamma spectrometric analyses are also influenced by the relative concentrations of the radionuclides in the sample, the energies and intensities of the gammas emitted by those radionuclides, and the assumptions used in selecting the radionuclides to be quantitatively determined.

Results reported as less than (<) in these tables are below the minimum detectable concentrations (MDCs). The MDC is an estimate of the detection capabilities of the overall measurement method, taking into account not only the counting system, but also the characteristics of the sample being counted. When the MDC is used as the level to decide whether or not to enter a measured value into a table, there is a 50% chance that the value will be entered when the actual sample activity is equivalent to the MDC.

There is only a five percent chance that a value representing a fluctuation in background activity will be entered as sample activity in such an instance.

Measured values for the activities of specific radionuclides, such as the man-made gamma-emitting radionuclides beryllium-7 and cesium-137, only appear in the following tables for each specific medium when the levels that are measured exceed the MDC values for those measurements and those radionuclides are actually identified as present in the samples. Measured values for the analyses that are not radionuclide specific, such as gross alpha and beta analyses, also are presented in the tables for specific media only when the levels that are measured actually exceed the MDCs.

(2) A standard (std.) quarter (qtr.) is considered to be 91.25 days. Results obtained for monitoring periods of other durations are normalized by multiplying them by 91.25/x, where x is the actual duration in days of the period.

(3) Uncertainties for individual monitoring location results are two standard deviations of the elemental doses of six calcium elements from the two TLDs assigned to each monitorin glocation, representing the variability between the elemental doses of each of the six TLD elements.

(4) TLDs were not in the field at this monitoring location during this quarter. Refer to Appendix A of this report for an explanation of program changes to the REMP.

(5) No measurement could be made because the TLDs were lost, stolen or damaged.

(6) Uncertainties associated with quarterly indicator and control averages are two standard deviations, representing the variability between the results of the individual monitoring locations.

(7) Data were invalidated for this period because of an unacceptably high coefficient of variation among element readings (not applicable for 2004 data).

(8) Extra TLDs, not required by TRMIODCM (i.e. do not provide additional benefit) and were deleted from the monitoring program.

Appendx J The data in the tables that follow show how well Framatome ANP Environmental Laboratory and Teledyne Brown Engineering Environmental Services'(TBE) performed in the analysis of radioactively spiked media. Tables J-1 through J-5 provide the performance results for Framatome ANP. 'Tables J-6 through J-10'provide the performance results for TBE. In addition to' the Analytics' spikes analyzed as part of PPL's REMP Laboratory Spike Program (Tables J-3 and J-8),;Framatome ANP and TBE analyzed spikes procured independently from Analytics as part of their respective Quality Control Spike Programs (Tables J-2 and J-7), as well as spikes prepared as part of the following programs:-

1. The Proficiency Testing Program of Environmental Resource Associates (Tables J-1 and J-6)
2. The Quality Assessment Program of DOE's Environmental Measurements Laboratory (EML)

(Tables J4 and J-9)

3. The Mixed Analyte Performance Evaluation Program (MAPEP) of the DOE (Tables J-5 and J-10)

It should be noted that program #1 above only provides spiked water for analyses. No other.

media are included in the spikes provided by this program. Also, it should be noted that the levels of activity in spikes of different media prepared for progiam'i #2 tend to be relatively high.

They are relatively high compared to the levels of activity in the spikes prepared by Analytics as part of its Environmental Cross Check Program and for PPL's REMP Laboratory Spike Program.

The following characteristics are important for the spiked environmental media:

1. When practical, the level of activity in, at least, some of the spiked environmental media should be within the range between required analysis sensitivities for the SSES REMP and the Reporting Levels, if applicable, of the NRC.
2. The spikes should be preserved in a manner as similar as possible to the way that actual samples of those media are prepared.
3. The variety of radionuclides with which environmental media are spiked should be as extensive as practical, including as many as of the activation and fission products that could be detected in the vicinity of the SSES as reasonable.

The spiked environmental media prepared by Analytics according to the requirements of PPL's REMP Laboratory Spike Program are intended to incorporate characteristics #1, #2, and #3 to the greatest degree that is practical.

2004 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Report J-J-2

Appendix J The criteria for the acceptability of the analyses results for the spikes prepared as part of the PPL REMP Laboratory Spike Program (Tables J-3 & J-8) have been established by PPL. They are based on criteria that were originally developed by the NRC. The NRC bases these criteria on an empirical relationship that combines prior experience and accuracy needs. As the resolution of the measurement process improves (relative measurement uncertainty becomes smaller), the criteria for determining acceptability become tighter. Conversely, as the resolution of the process becomes poorer (relative measurement uncertainty becomes bigger), the criteria are widened.

The criteria for acceptability of DOE programs (EML's and MAPEP's programs - Tables J-4, J-5, J-9 and J-10) are based on control limits based on percentiles of historic data distributions.

Note that comment numbers at the extreme right side of the tables denote unacceptable results in Tables J-1 through J-10. Discussions relevant to these comment numbers follow the presentations of the data, as applicable.

Radionuclide concentration results not available (due to curdled milk sample, not acceptable for gamma and 1-131 low level analysis) and therefore not included in Table J-8 for the following:

COMMENTS 1 Analytics evaluation based on TBE internal QC limits: A= Acceptable. Reported result falls within ratio limits of 0.80-1.20.

W-Acceptable with warning. Reported result falls within 0.70-0.80 or 1.20-1.30. N= Not Acceptable. Reported result falls outside the ratio limits of < 0.70 and > 1.30.

2 The Analytics filter had very low activity and was counted longer than two days. This resulted Inpoor accuracy as demonstrated by the very large error term. Dan Montgomery of Analytics concurred that, with the low counts and large error, the results were reasonably accurate and would not be considered a failed cross check at 1.31 for an environmental level sample.

COMMENTS 1 Ni-63 result determined to be an anomaly, specific only to this sample. NCR 04-11 generated by Teledyne to document condition.

2 All raw data looked normal for the sample. Evaluating the results based on the + 541 pCi/l uncertainty, the result easily overlaps the known value at the 95% confidence level. The sample was rerun with a larger aliquot to improve accuracy and lower the uncertainty.

The rerun result of 2,605 +/- 209 pCiA agrees with the known value of 2,240 pCi/A. NCR 04-19 generated by Teledyne to document condition.

3 The rerun result of 2,700 pCi/A agrees well with the known value of 2,702 pCi/i. NCR 04-18 generated by Teledyne to document condition.

4 DOE/MAPEP evaluation: A=acceptable, W=acceptable with warning, N=not acceptable.

5 Non-leachable U and Pu were present in the soil. The sample was rerun and the results agreed with the known values. NCR 04-20 generated by Teledyne to document condition.

6 Special rinses for samples with high Uranium and Co-60 was used on these samples. Reran without these rinses yielded Tc-99 results of 2,757, 2,311, and 2,651 pCI/Kg which were within the acceptance criteria. NCR 04-21 generated by Teledyne to document condition.
