1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) provides guidance for making release rate and dose calculations for radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents from Arkansas Nuclear One - Units 1 and 2. The methodology is drawn from NUREG-0133, Rev. 0.

Parameters contained within this manual were taken from NUREG-0133 and Regulatory Guide 1.109 except as noted for site specific values. These numbers and the calculational method may be changed as provided for in the Technical Specifications.

The following references are utilized in conjunction with the limitations included in this manual concerning the indicated subjects:

Subject ANO-1 ANO-2 Process Control Program (PCP) NMM RW-105 NMM RW-105 Radioactive Effluent Controls Program TS 5.5.4 TS 6.5.4 Annual Radiological Environmental MonitDring Report TS 5.6.2 TS 6.6.2 Radioactive Effluent Release Report TS 5.6.3 T;S 6.6.3 Offsite Dose Calculation Manual TS 5.5.1 TS 6.5.1

2.0 LIQUID EFFLUENTS 2.1 Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitor Setpoint The Radioactive Liquid Effluent Instrumentation Limitation requires that the radioactive liquid effluents be monitored with the alarm/trip setpoints adjusted to ensure that the limits of the radioactive liquid effluent concentration limitations are not exceeded. These concentrations are for the site. The alarm/trip setpoint on the liquid effluent monitor is dependent upon the dilution water flowrate, radwaste tank flowrate, isotopic composition of the radioactive liquid to be discharged, a gross gamma count of the liquid to be discharged, background count rate of the monitor, and the efficiency of the monitor. Due to the fact that these are variables, an adjustable setpoint is used. The setpoint must be calculated and the monitor setpoint set prior to the release of each batch of radioactive liquid effluents. The following methodology is used for the setpoin: determination for the following monitors.

ANO-1: RE-4642 Liquid Radwaste Monitor ANO-2: 2RE-2330 Liquid Radwaste Monitor 2RE-4423 Liquid Radwaste Monitor

1) A sample from each tank (batch) to be discharged is obtained and counted for gross gamma (Cs-137 equivalent) and a gamma isotopic analysis is performed.

2) A dilution factor (DF) for the tank is calculated based upon the results of the gamma isotopic analysis and the Maximum Permissible Concentration (MPC) of each detected radionuclide.

DF is calculated as follows:

DF = Ii (Ci/MPCi) + CTNG /MPCTNG where:

DF = dilution factor; Ci = concentration of isotope "i", (pCi/ml);

MPC. = maximum permissible concentration of isotope "i",

(from 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, column .2in PCi/ml);

CTNG = total concentration of noble gases (pICi/ml); and MPCTNG = 2 x 10-4 (pCi/ml) per Appendix 1, Limitation L2.3.1.A and Appendix 2, Limitation L2.3.1.A.

3) The dilution water flowrate is normally the number of AND-1 circulating water pumps in operation at the time of release. Each circulating water pump has an approximate flowrate of 191,500 gpm (this flowrate may be reduced due to throttling of circ water pump flow and/or circ water bay configuration). However, under specific conditions and under strict controls, lower dilution water flowrates utilizing service water and cooling tower blowdown flowrates may be used.

4) The theoretical release rate, F , of the tank (batch) to be released is expressed in terms of the dilution water flowrate, such that for each volume of dilution water released, a given volume of liquid radwaste may be combined. This may be expressed as follows:

F = DV/DF m

where:

F = theoretical release rate (gpm);

m DV = Dilution volume (gpm). When ANO-l circulating water pumps are running, DV is the number of ANO-l circulating water pumps in operation mult:Lplied by the approximate flowrate of an ANO-l circulating water pump (normally 191,500 gpm) or an indicated flow rate. The minimum total flow rate shall be greater than or equal to 100,000 gpm. Otherwise DV is dilution volume provided by service water and cooling tower blowdown flowrate; and DF = dilution factor as calculated in Step 2 above.

1n t aNOTE 1 In the above equation, the theoretical release rate (F approaches zero as the dilution factor increases. The actual flowrate (FA ) will normally be equal to the theoretical release rate for high activity releases.

For low activity releases, the theoretical release rate becomes large and may exceed the capacity of the pump discharging the tank. In these cases, the actual release rate may be set to the maximum flowrate of the discharge pump.

5) The monitor setpoint is calculated by incorporating the monitor reading prior to starting the release (i.e., background countrate),

and a factor which is the amount of increase in the release concentration that would be needed to exceed the radioactive liquid concentration limitation. The monitor setpoint is expressed as follows:

ML = A*(K*FM/FA) + 3 where:

M = monitor setpoint (CPM);

L A = allocation fraction for the specific unit. (Typically, these values are set at 0.45, but may be adjus:ed up or down as needed. However, the total site allocation can not exceed 1.0.)

K = monitor countrate (CPM) expected based on the gross activity of thes release. (This value is obtained from a graph of activity (IiCi/ml) versus output count:fate for the monitor (CPM));

FM/FA = number of times the activity would have to inc:rease to exceed the radioactive liquid effluent-concent::ation limitation; and B = background countrate (CPM) prior to the release.

To permit the computer to calculate the setpoint, an equation for the expected countrate (K) is expressed as follows:

SA K = Slope

10 + Offset where:

Slope = Log of the detector response in CPM Log of activity concentration in pCi/ml SA = Gross gamma (CC-137 equivalent) activity for the tank (pCi/ml); and Offset = detector response (CPM) for the minimum detectable sample activity calculated from the calibration data.

NOTE I&C personnel use varying concentrations of Cs-137 to determine the response curve; therefore, a Cs-137 equivalent activity must be used to accurately predict the countrate.

Combining terms, the equation for determining the monitor setpoint may be expressed as follows:

SA ML = A * [(Slope

LO + Offset)* FM/FAI + B 2.2 Liquid Dose Calculation The "dose" or "dose commitment:" to an individual in the unrestricted area shall be less than or equal to the limits specified in Radioactive Liquid Effluents-Dose Appendix 1 and Appendix 2 Limitations. The dose limits are on a per reactor basis. This value is calculated using the Adult: as the maximum exposed individual via the aquatic foods (Sport Freshwater Fish) and the potable water pathways.

2.2.1 Dose Calculations for Aquatic Foods The concentrations of radionuclides in aquatic foods are assumed to be directly related to the concentrations in water.

The equilibrium rat:Los between the two concentrations are called "bioaccumulal:ion factors".

Two different pathways are calculated for aquatic foods: sport and commercial freshwater fish.

The internal dose "d" from the consumption of aquatic foods in pathway "p" to organ "j" of individuals of age group "a" from all nuclides "i" is computed as follows: (See Chapter 4 of NUREG-0133 and Regulatory Guide 1.109-12, equation A-3).

-p t 1 p d (r,O,a,j) = Li {L100*e *B )*M*U*F-1 *QtD i a 1 aij The total dose from both aquatic food pathways is then:

D (r,8,a,j) = v d (r,O,a,j) p where:

r = user-selected distance from the release point to the receptor location, in kilometers. It may be different from the controlling distance specified for the potable water pathway (0.4 km);

0 = user-selected sector (one of sixteen 22.5" sectors surrounding the reactor site, designated N, NNE, NE,

... etc). This sector may be different from the controlling sector specified for the potable water pathway (S);

a = user-selected age group: infant, child, zeen, adult.

It is the same controlling age group used in the potable water pathway (adult);

j = user-selected organ: bone, liver, total body, thyroid, kidney, lung, GI-LLI. It is the same controlling organ used in the potable water pathway (liver);

{ } = represents the concentration factor stored in the database; NOTE Only one concentration factor is needed to represent the two pathways since sport and commercial use the same bioaccumulation factor for a given pathway.

1100 = factor to convert from (Ci/yr)/(ft3/sec) to pCi/liter; LICENSE NO. TITLE: PAGE: 9 of 173 075 OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL REV: 014-03-0

decay constant of nuclide "il in hr-1; X. =

tp = environmental transit time, release to receptor; NOTE This value should be set to 0 hours0 days 0 hours 0 weeks 0 months (i.e., no decay correction) for the above equation in order to be consistent with the equation presented in Chapter 4 of NUREG-0133. For maximum individual dose calculations, this value is set to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months , which is the minimum transit time recommended by Regulatory Guide 1.109, Appendix A, 2.b.

B. = bioaccumulation factor for nuclide "i", in pCi/kg per 1

pCi/liter. Cesium has a site specific number based on carnivorous and bottom feeder sport fish of 400 pCi/kg per pCi/liter (OCAN048408, dated April 13, 1984); Niobium has a site specific number based upon freshwater fish of 300 pCi/kg per pCi/liter.

M = dimensionless mixing ratio (reciprocal of the dilution factor) at the point of exposure; U = annual usage factor that specifies the inzake rate for an individual of age group "a", in kilograms/year. The program selects this usage factor in accordance with the controlling age group "a" as specified previously by the user; F = average flow rate in ft3/sec. This value is based on total dilution volume for the quarter divided by time into the quarter; Qi = number of curies of nuclide "i" released; and Daij = ingestion dose factor for age group "a", nuclide "iI, and organ "j", in mrem per pCi ingested. The program selects the ingestion dose factor according to the user-specified controlling age group "a" and controlling organ "j".

2.2.2 Dose Calculations for Potable Water The dose "D" from ingestion of water to organ "j" oE individuals of age group "an due to all nuclides "i"' is calculated as follows (See Chapter 4 of NUREG-0133 and NRC Reg. Guide 1.109-12, equation A-2):

NOTE The potable water pathway is used only during the time that the Russe-lville Water System is using the Arkansas River as a water source. The Russellville Water Works will notify ANO when they are using the Arkansas River as a water source.

X-itp m D (r,O,a,j) = liI{1100*e }*M*U*F-l*Q*D l where:

r = user-selected distance (0.4 km) from the :release point to -:he receptor location, in kilometers. It may be different from the controlling distance selected for the aquatic food pathway; e = user-selected sector; (one of the sixteen 22.50 sectors surrounding the reactor site, designated N, NNE, NE, ... etc.). It may be different :from the controlling sector for the aquatic food pathway; a = user-selected age group (infant, child, teen, adult).

The same controlling age group is used fo:r all liquid pathways (adult);

j = user-selected organ (bone, liver, total body, thyroid, kidney, lung, GI-LLI). The same controlling organ is used for all liquid pathways (liver).

{} = the expression in brackets represents the concentration factor stored in the database; 1100 = factor to convert from (Ci/yr)/(ft3/sec) to pCi/liter; M = dimensionless mixing ratio (reciprocal of the dilution factor) at the point of exposure; i = decay constant of nuclide "in in hr'"; and tp = environmental transit time, release to receptor.

NOTE This value is set to 0 hours0 days 0 hours 0 weeks 0 months (i.e., no decay correction) for the above equation to be consistent with the equation presented in Chapter 4 of NUREG-0133.

U = annual usage factor that specifies the intake rate a

for an individual of age group "a", in liters/year.

The program selects this usage factor according to the user-specified controlling age group 'a";

F = average flow rate in ft3/sec; this value is based on total dilution volume for one quarter divided by time into the quarter; Qi = number of curies of nuclide "i" in the release; and D2..

Daij = ingestion dose factor, for age group "a", nuclide "il, and organ "j", in mrem per pCi ingested. The program selects the ingestion dose factor according to the user-specified controlling age group "a" and controlling organ "j".

2.3 Liquid Projected Dose Calculation The quarterly projected dose is based upon the methodology of Section 2.2 and is expressed as follows:

DQp = 92*(D + DRP )/T where:

DQP = quarterly projected dose (mrem);

92 = number of days per quarter;

= cumulative dose for the quarter (mrem);

DQC DRP = dose for current release (mrem); and T = current days into quarter; 3.0 GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 3.1 Gaseous Monitor Setpoints NOTE Sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 below detail two methods of calculating setpoints at ANO. These methods cover two different sets of monitors of which only one will be in-service at any one time.

3 .1.1 Batch Release Setpoint Calculations 3.1.1.a This section applies to the following gaseous radiation monitors (These releases are also monitored by the SPING monitors in Section 3.1.2):

ANO-1 RE-4830* Waste gas holdup system monitor RX-9820 Unit 1 Containment Purge SPING ANO-2 2RE-8233 Containment purge 2RX-9820 Unit 2 Containment Purge SPING 2RE-2429* Waste gas holdup system monitor

These monitors provide automatic isolation for the waste gas holdup systems.

The setpoints to be used during a batch type of release (i.e., reactor building [containment] purge, release from the waste gas holdup system or any other non-routine release) will be calculated for each release before it occurs.

3.1.1.b The basic methodology for determining a monitor setpoint is based upon the expected concentration at the monitor (CM). This is in turn based upon the fraction of an MPC assigned to this release point.

Batch releases are maintained below the assigned MPC fraction by controlling the release rate. The calculated value of S may not exceed the equivalent of 1 MPC at site boundary. If value of S for RX(2RX)-9820 is less than SPING channel 5 high alarm setpoint, then high alarm setpoint may be used as a default value. If value of S for RE-4830 and 2RE-2429 is less than 50,000 counts/min, then 50,000 counts/min may be used as a minimum setpoint. If value of S for 2RE-8233 is less than 1,000 counts/min, then 1,000 counts/min may be used as a minimum setpoint.

S = 1.2 * (C *K) + (2.0

B)

M where:

S = monitor setpoint (counts/min);

CM = Xe-133 equivalent concentration at the monitor (pCi/ml);

K = conversion factor determined from response curve of monitor (counts/min per pCi/ml). This value is 1.0 when calculating S for RX(2RX)-

9820.

2.0 = factor to accommodate random count rate fluctuations; B = background count rate at the monitor (counts/min).

1.2 = Safety Factor to correct for instrument uncertainties.

3 .1.2 Eberline SPING (Final Effluent) Monitor Setpoint Calculations 3.1.2 .a This section applies to the following gaseous radiation monitors:

ANO-1 RX-9820 Containment Purge RX-9835 Hydrogen Purge/Emerg. Pen. Room Vent.

RX-9830 Fuel Handling Area RX-9825 Radwaste Area ANO-2 2RX-9820 Containment Purge 2RX-9840 PASS Bldg.

2RX-9845 Aux. Bldg. Ventilation 2RX-9835 Hydrogen Purge/Emerg. Pen. Room Vent.

2RX-9830 Fuel Handling Area 2RX-9825 Radwaste Area 2RX-9850 Low-Level Radwaste Storage Building The determination of setpoints for the above monitors is based on an assigned fraction of the M)?C of noble gas activity at the site boundary, (Xe-133 equivalent) released from the above release points.

The total of these fractions is always less than 1.00. The assigned fractions are based on the vent flow rates, atmospheric dilution rate, and the ventilation system(s) in operation.

NOTE The fact that an effluent monitor is in alarm does no: necessarily mean that radioact:Lve gases are being released at such a rate that the MPC limit is being exceeded. The alarm would indicate that radioactive gases are being released at a rate that is exceeding the fractional allocation of an MPC allotted to that particular release point. Consideration must be given to the release rate of radioactive gases via all of the release pathways.

The initial fractions of an MPC allocated to the release points are given below. The allocations may be changed as needed, to allow for operational transients, but may not exceed a site total of 1.00.

Monitor Monitor Fractional Number Name Allocation RX-9820 Containment Purge 0.1000 RX-9835 Hydr. Purge/Emerg. Pen. 0.0001 Rm. Vent.

2RX-9830 Fuel Handling Area 0.1500 2RX-9825 Radwaste Area 0.2000 2RX-9850 Radwaste Storage Bldg. 0.0100 NOTE The setpoints to be used during a batch release (i.e., reactor building [containment] purge, release from the waste gas holdup system) will be calculated for each release before it occurs.

3.1.2.b SPING monitor setpoints may be calculated as follows:

Setpoint (pCi/cc) = A

Xe-133 eq (pCi/cc) where: L F*1.3215E-9*TMPC I A = allocation fraction (the fraction of an MPC at the site boundary (of noble gas Xe-133 eq activity) assigned to the particular release point);

Xe-133 eq = Xenon-133 equivalent concentration; F = discharge flow of the particular release point in CFM; 1.3215E-9 = 2.8317E-2(cm/cf)

E-6(sec/m3)

[6L0(sec I-in)

where:

2.8E-6 = the annual average gaseous dispersion factor (corrected for radioactive decay) as defined in Section 2.3 of the ANO-2 SAR; and TMPC = total MPCs at site boundary.

3.2 Airborne Release Dose Rate EfEects 3.2.1 Noble Gas Release Rate 3.2.I.a To calculate the noble gas release dose rate, the average ground-level concentration of radionuclide "i" at the receptor location must first be determined from the following equation. (See Regulatory Guide 1.109-20 equation B-4).

Xi (1) = 3.17 x 104

Qi

D1X/Q(0) where:

xi (0) = average ground level concentration in pCi/m3 of nuclide "in at the user-specified controlling distance in sector 13 (1.05 km);

(8) = one of the sixteen 22.50 sectors surrounding the reactor site, designated N, NNE, NE, ... etc. (WNW);

3.17xl0 4 = number of pCi per Ci divided by the number of seconds/year; Qi = release rate of nuclide "il in curies/yr and DlX/Q(O) - annual average gaseous dispersion factor (corrected for radioactive decay) in the sector at angle "1" at the receptor location in sec/m3. This value is 2.8E-6 sec/m3 for short term releases.

The annuaL dose to the total body and skin due to noble gas can be calculated according to sections 3.1.2.b and 3.2.1.c.

3.2.1.b Annual Total Body Dose Rate The annual average total body dose rate to the maximally exposed individual is calculated as follows:

DT(O) = REPF

S,

Xi [xi(8)

DFBiJ

where:

D (8) = total body dose rate due to immersion in a semi-infinite cloud of gas at the controlling distance in sector "0",

in mrem/yr. The program computes one total body dose rate value for each sector in which the user has specified a controlling distance and reports only the maximum value; 0 = one of sixteen 22.50 sectors surrounding the reactor site, designated N, NNE, NE, .... etc.;

(WNW);

RBPF = Reactor Building (Containment) Purge Factor -

This factor is used to calculate the length of time (fractional duty cycle) that the purge fans will be in operation.

It is calculated by comparing the highest dose rate (DOSER) to its applicable release limit, taking into account the allocation factor for the release point (RBPF = Allocation*

Limit/DOSER). This factor is calculated only for Unit One and Two Reactor Building (Containment) Purges.

For all other releases, this factor is set to 1.0; SF = dimensionless attenuation factor accounting for the dose reduction due to shielding by residential structures. The NRC recommended value is 0.7 (for maximum individual);

xi(8) = average ground-level concentration of nuclide "i" at the receptor location in the sector at angle "O" from the release point, as defined in Section 3.2.1.a; and DFB. = total body dose factor for a serai-infinite cloud of radionuclide Ili",

which includes the attenuation of 5 g/cm2 of tissue, in mrem-m3/pCi-yr 3.2.1.c Annual Skin Dose Rate The annual dose rate to the skin of the maximally exposed individual due to noble gases is calculated as follows. (See Regulatory Guide 1.109-20 equation 13-9)

I- _

DS() = R]3PF Il.i*S *Ti(x(0)*DFi) + i in L_ F i i where:

D (0) = skin dose due to immersion in a semi-infinite cloud of gas at the user-specified controlling distance in sector "O", in mrem; NOTE The program computes a skin dose value for each sector in which the user has specified a controlling distance, but prints out only the maximum value.

RBPF = Reactor Building (Containment) Purge Factor as defined in Section 3.2.1.b.

1.11 = average ratio of tissue to air energy absorption coefficient; SF = dimensionless attenuation factor accounting for the dose reduction due to shielding by residential structures. The value is 0.7 (for maximum individual);

x (0) = is the average ground-level concentration of nuclide "i" at the receptor location in the sector at angle "0" from the release point, as defined in Section 3.2.1; 0 = one of sixteen 22.50 sectors surrounding the reactor site, designated N, NNE, NE, ... etc.,

(WNW);

DFY = gamma air dose factor for a semi-infinite cloud of radionuclide "i",

in mrad-m3/pCi-yr; and DFS. = beta skin dose factor for a semi-infinite cloud of radionuclide "i", which includes the attenuation by the outer "dead" layer of skin, in mrem-m 3 /pCi-yr.

3 .2 .2 I-131, Tritium and Particulate Release Dose Rate Effects The annual dose rate to the maximally exposed individual for I-131, tritium and radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than eight days is calculated as follows:

DTOT = RBPF * + DR GR + DRY where:

RBPF = Reactor Building (Containment) Purge Factor as defined in Section 3.2.1.b; DR = dose rate to the controlling age group (infant) associated with the inhalation of radioiodines and particulates, as calculated in Section 3.4.l.b; DR = dose rate from direct exposure to activity deposited on the ground plane, as calculated in Secltion 3.4.1.a; and M

DR = dose rate to the controlling age group (infant) and the controlling organ for ingestion of food (milk),

as calculated in Section 3.4.1.d.

Calculation of the annual dose rate considers the infant as the most restrictive age group. The organs that are considered as contributing to the dose rate are: skin, bone, liver, total body, thyroid, kidney, lung, and GI-LLI. The food pathway for the infant is considered to be from milk only. All three pathways will contribute to the total body dose, while the skin will be affected by only the ground plane pathway. The other organs are affected only by the inhalation and food pathways.

3.3 Dose Due to Noble Gases The air dose in unrestricted areas due to noble gases released in gaseous effluents shall be less than or equal to 5 mrad for gamma radiation and 10 mrad for beta radiation for any calendar quarter for each lImit. The objective of less than or equal to 10 mrad of gamma radiation and 20 mrad of beta radiation for a calendar year per unit (2.5 mrad and 5 mrad respectively per quarter) should be used for planning releases.

NOTE The following equations have been simplified from equations in NUREG-0133, Rev. 0, in that there are no free-standing stacks at ANO.

The equations were further simplified in that there are no :Long term (i.e., continuous) releases. The individual stack vents are sampled weekly and are assigned a release period of 168 hours0.00194 days 0.0467 hours 2.777778e-4 weeks 6.3924e-5 months per sample (i.e., considered as short term (batch) releases). Individual samples are to be taken for each waste gas tank release and reactor building (containment) purge.

3.3.1 Beta and Gamma Air Doses from Noble Gas Releases Using the average ground level concentration of rad:Lonuclide "i" at the receptor location calculated in Section 3.2.l.a, the associated annual gamma or beta air dose may be calculated by the following equation. (See Regulatory Guide 1.109-20 equation B-5.)

The child is the controlling age group unless stated otherwise.

The inhalation and ground plane pathways are considered to exist at all locations. The grass-cow-milk, grass-cow-meat, and vegetation pathways are used where applicable.

It is assumed that iodines are in the elemental form.

A dispersion parameter of 2.8E-6 sec/m3 (per ANO-2 SAR, Section 2.3.4.4) is used for "w" in the inhalation pathway since the majority of gaseous activity released from the site is within the 8 to 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months time frame (i.e., reactor building [containment] purges and waste gas decay tanks).

First, the concentration factors (CF) are computed and stored in the database. The concentration factor includes all the parameters that are considered constant for each nuclide and agricultural activity, such as tae radioactive decay constant, removal rate constant, exposure time, etc.

3.4.1.c.1 Calculating Vegetation Concentration Factors NUREG-0133 calculations for radioiod:Lnes and particulate radionuclides (except tritium and carbon-14), the concentration factor of nuclide "i" in and on vegetation is estimated as follows:

ith v r CF. = CONST*(- )*e Yv*Xi where:

v CF. = concentration factor of radionuclide "i" in vegetation (forage, produce, or leafy vegetables), in m2-hr/kg; CONSr = 1.14 x 108 number of pCi per Ci (1012) divided by the number of hours per year (8760);

f = 0.76 for the fraction of produce ingested,. grown in garden of interest. (This is f in equation C-13 of Regulatory Guide 1.109)

f = 1.00 for the fraction of leafy vegetables grown in garden of interest. (This is f, in equation C-13 of Regulatory Guide 1.109) f = 1.00 for all other pathways 3.4.1.c.2 Concentration Factor for Carbon-14 For carbon-14, the concentration factor in and on vegetation is estimated as follows (see Regulatory Guide 1.109-26, equation C-8):

CFV 14 = 2.2 x 107

p where:

CFV14 = concentration factor of carbon-14 in and on vegetation, in m2-hr/kg; and p = is defined as the ratio of total annual release time (for C-14 atmospheric releases) to the total annual time during which photosynthesis occurs (taken to be 4400 hours0.0509 days 1.222 hours 0.00728 weeks 0.00167 months ), under the condition that the value of "p" should never exceed unity. For continuous C-14 releases, "p" is taken to be unity.

(Thus, the value of 2.2 x 107 is stored for CFvl4 in lieu of a site specific value for "p".)

3.4.1.c.3 Concentration Factor for Tritium The concentration factor for tritium in vegetation is calculated from the tr:itium concentration in air surrounding the vegetation (see Regulatory Guide 1.109-27, equal-ion C-9):

where:

v CFT = concentration factor for tritium in vegetation (in m2-hr/kg); and H = absolute humidity at the location of the vegetation, in g/m3. (The regulatory default value for "H" is 8.0 grams/m3.)

3.4.1.e Nuclide Concentration in Meat The radionuclide concentration in meat is dependent upon the quantity and contamination level of feed consumed :by the animal. The concentration is estimated (see Regulatory Guide 1.109-27, equations C-11 and C-12) as follows:

A value of 0 hours0 days 0 hours 0 weeks 0 months was chosen due to the proximity of the discharge canal to the plant; and tb = is the period of time for which sediment is exposed to the contaminated water in hours.

The mid-point of plant operating life, 15 years was chosen per Regulatory Guide 1.109.

3.6.2 Airborne Release 3.6.2.a Dose Due to Noble Gases Dose to fisherman at the discharge canal can be calculated by the ratio of dispersion factor for the discharge canal (1.6E-4 sec/m3 from Table 2-45 SAR, Unit 1, 100 meters downwind in a southerly direction) and the usage factor of 67 hours7.75463e-4 days 0.0186 hours 1.107804e-4 weeks 2.54935e-5 months of shoreline recreation to the values used in Section 3.3 of this manual.

Dose at discharge canal = 67 hr l.6E-4

~8670 hr where D (13)is the noble gas dose calculated by Section 3.3.

3.6.2.b Dose Due :o Iodine, Tritium and Particulales from Gaseous Effluents Section 3.4 calculates total dose for iodine, tritium and particulates as the sum of:

DTOT = D G + D I + D V + D L + D M + D F

where:

G D = ground plane deposition; D

I = inhalation; Dv = consumption of vegetation; D = consumption of fresh leafy vegetables; D = consumption of milk; and F

D = consumption of meat and poultry; The only contributions relevant to fishing activities at the discharge canal are ground plane deposition and inhalation. As D and D are not independently available, a conservative estimate can be obtained by using the same correction factor developed for noble gas dose to the total dose calculated in Section 3.4 for iodine, tritium and particulates. DeDletion of the plume as it travels downwind can be ignored since the fraction remaining in the plume at 100 meters (discharge canal) and 1046 meters (site boundary) are both greater than 90% according to Figure 3 of Regulatory Guide 1.111.

The only activity inside the plant site by members of the public that might contribute a significant dose is fishing along the banks of the discharge canal.

Travel along public roads would involve short exposure time and tours of the facility are conducted according to radiological control procedures enforced at the plant to control exposure. Fishing is the only uncontrolled activity.

APPENDIX 1 Radioactive Effluent Controls UNIT 1

1.0 DEFINITIONS OPERABLE - OPERABILITY 1.1 A system, subsystem, train, component or device shall be operable or have operability when it is capable of performing its specified function(s). Implicit in this definition shall be the assumption that all necessary attendant instrumentation, controls, normal and emergency electrical power 3ources, cooling or seal water, lubrication or other auxiliary equipment that are required for the system, subsystem, train, component or device to perform its function(s) are also capable of performing their related support function(s).

CHANNEL TEST 1.2 A channel test is the injection of an internal or external test signal into the channel to verify its proper response, including alarm and/or trip initiating action, where applicable.

INSTRUMENT CHANNEL CHECK 1.3 An instrument channel check is a verification of acceptable instrument performance by observation of its behavior and/or state; this verification includes comparison of output and/or state of independent channels measuring the same variable.

INSTRUMENT CHANNEL CALIBRATION 1.4 An instrument channel calibration is a test, and adjustment (if necessary),

to establish that the channel output responds with acceptable range and accuracy to known values of the parameter which the channel measures or an accurate simulation of these values. Calibration shall encompass the entire channel, including equipment actuation, alarm or trip and shall be deemed :o include the channel test.

SOURCE CHECK 1.5 A source check shall be the qualitative assessment of channel response when the channel sensor is exposed to a radioactive source.

LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM 1.6 A liquid radwaste treatment system is a system designed and used for holdup, filtration, and/or demineralization of radioactive liquid effluents prior to their release to the environment.

GASEOUS RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM 1.7 A gaseous radwaste treatment system is any system designed and installed to reduce radioactive gaseous effluents by collecting gases from radioactive systems and providing for decay or holdup for the purpose of reducing the total radioactivity prior to release to the environment.

DEFINITIONS VENTILATION EXHAUST TREATMENT SYSTEM 1.8 A ventilation exhaust treatment system is any system designed and installed to reduce gaseous radioiodine or radioactive material in particulate form in effluents by passing ventilation or vent exhaust gases through charcoal adsorbers and/or HEPA filters for the purpose of removing iodines or particilates from the gaseous exhaust stream prior to the release to the environment (such a system is not considered to have any effect on noble gas effluents). Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) atmospheric cleanup systems are not considered to be ventilation exhaust treatment systems.

PURGE - PURGING 1.9 Purge or purging is the controlled process of discharging air or gas from a confinement to reduce the airborne radioactivity concentration in such a manner that replacement air or gas is required to purify the confinement.

MEMBER(S) OF THE PUBLIC 1.10 Member(s) of the public shall include all persons who are not occupationally associated with the plant. This category does not include employees of the utility, its contractors or vendors. Also excluded from the category are persons who enter the site to service equipment or to make deliveries. This category does include persons who use portions of the site for recreational, occupational or other purposes not associated with the plant.

EXCLUSION AREA 1.11 The exclusion area is that area surrounding ANO within a minimum radius of 0.65 miles of the reactor buildings and controlled to the extent necessary by the licensee for purposes of protection of individuals from exposure to radiation and radioactive materials.

UNRESTRICTED AREA 1.12 An unrestricted area shall be any area beyond the exclusion area boundary.

FREQUENCY NOTATION 1.13 The frequency notation specified for the performance of Surveillance Limitations shall correspond to the following intervals:

BATCH RELEASE 1.14 A "Batch" release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for analysis, each batch shall be isolated and then thoroughly mixed to assure representative sampling.

CONTINUOUS RELEASE 1.15 A "Continuous" release is the discharge of liquid waste of a non-discrete volume, e.g. from a volume of a system that has an input flow during the continuous release.

2.0 RELEASE CONTROLS LIMITATION L2.0.1 The Limitation and Action requirements shall be applicable during the conditions specified for each limitation.

L2.0.2 Adherence to the requirements of the Limitation and/or associated Action within the specified time interval shall constitute compliance with the Limitation. In the event the Limitation is restored prior to the expiration of the specified time interval, completion of the action statement is not required.

BASES BL2.0.1 This limitation establishes the general requirements applicable to Limitations. Limitations are the lowest functional capability or performance levels of equipment required for safe operation of the facility. w4hen a Limitation is not met, the licensee shall follow any remedial Action permitted by the Limitation until the condition can be met. This limitation establishes the applicability statement within each individual limitation as the requirement for when (i.e., in which specified conditions) conformance to the Limitation is required for safe operation of the facility. The Action requirements establish those remedial measures that must be taken within specified time limits when the requirements of a Limitation are not met. The Action requirements specify the remedial measures that permit continued operation of the facility which is not further restricted by the time limits of the Action requirements. In this case, conformance to the Action requirements provides an acceptable level of safety for unlimited continued operations as long as the Action requirements continue to be met. The specified time limits of the Action requirements are applicable from the point in time it is identified that a Limitation is not met. The time limits of the Action requirements are also applicable when a system or component is removed from service for surveillance testing or investigation of operational problems. Individual limitations may include a specified time limit for completion of a Surveillance Limitation when equipment is removed from service.

In this case, the allowable outage time limits of the Action requirements are applicable when this limit expires if the surveillance has not been completed.

BL2.0.2 This limitation establishes the general requirements applicable to Limitations. Limitations are the lowest functional capability or performance levels of equipment required for safe operation of the facility. When a limitation is not met, the licensee shall follow any remedial Action permitted by the Limitation until the condition can be met. This limitation establishes that noncompliance with a limitation exists when the requirements of the Limitation are not met and the associated Action requirements have not been implemented within the specified time interval. The purpose of this limitation is to clarify that (1) implementation of the Action requirements constitutes compliance with a limitation and (2) completion of the remedial measures of the Action requirements is not required when compliance with a Limitation is restored within the time interval specified in the associated Action requirements.

SURVEILLANCE LIMITATION S2.0.1 Surveillance Limitations shall be applicable during the conditions specified for individual Limitations unless otherwise stated in an individual Surveillance Limitation.

S2.0.2 Each Surveillance Limitation shall be performed within the specified surveillance interval with a maximum allowable extension not to exceed 25% of the specified surveillance interval.

BASES BS2.0.1 This surveillance limitation establishes the general requirements applicable to Surveillance Limitations. Surveillance Limitations are requirements relating to test, calibration, or inspection to ensu:re that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained and that the limitations will be met. This surveillance limitation establishes the requirement that surveillances must be performed during the conditions for which the requirements of the Limitation apply unless otherwise stated :in an individual Surveillance Limitation. The purpose of this surveillance limitation is to ensure that the surveillances are performed to verify the operational status of systems and components and that parameters are within specified limits to ensure safe operation of the facility when the plant is an a specified condition for which the associated Limitations are applicable. Surveillance Limitations do not have to be performed when the facility is in a condition for which the requirements of the associated Limnitation do not apply unless otherwise specified.

BS2.0.2 This surveillance limitation establishes the general requirements applicable to Surveillance Limitations. Surveillance Limitations are requirements relating to test, calibration, or inspection to ensure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained and tha: the limitations will be met. This surveillance limitation establishes the limit for which the specified time interval for Surveillance Limitations may be extended.

It permits an allowable extension of the normal surveillance interval to facilitate surveillance scheduling and consideration of plant operating conditions that may not be suitable for conducting the surveillance (e.g.,

transient conditions or other ongoing surveillance or maintenance activities).

It also provides flexibility to accommodate the length of a fuel cycle for surveillances that are performed at a refueling frequency and are specified with an 18-month surveillance interval. It is not intended that this provision be used repeatedly as a convenience to extend surveillance intervals beyond that specified for surveillances. This surveillance limitation is based upon engineering judgement and the recognition that the most probable result of any particular surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with the Surveillance Limitations. This provision is sufficient to ensure that the reliability ensured through surveillance activities is not significantly degraded beyond that obtained from the specified surveillance intervals.

2.1 RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION LIMITATION L2.1.1 The radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation shown in Table 2.1-1 shall be operable with their alarm/trip setpoints set to ensure that the limits of Appendix 1, Limitation L2.3.1.A are not exceeded.

APPLICABILITY: During releases via this pathway.

b. For certain mixtures of gamma emitters, it may not be possible to measure radionuclides in concentrations near their sensit:Lvity limits when other nuclides are present in the sample in much greater concentrations. Under these circumstances, it wiLl be more appropriate to calculate -he concentration of such radionuclides using observed ratios with those radionuclides which are measurable.

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

d. A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling, each batch shall be isolated and mixed to ensure representative sampling.

e. A continuous release is the discharge of liquid waste of a non-discrete volume, e.g. from a volume of a system that has an input :-low during the continuous release.

f. If continuous samples cannot be obtained, then grab samples shall be collected and analyzed at least 1/24 hrs when the specific activity of the secondary coolant is *0.01 pCi/ml IDE (I-131) or at least 1/12 hrs when the specific activity of the secondary coolant is >0.01 pCi/ml IDE (I-131). Grab sample frequency may be increased due to plant conditions.

g. The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD limitation will apply are exclusively the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141, and Ce-144.

This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be detected and reported. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the above nuclides, shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses should not be reported as being present at the LLD level. When unusual circumstances result in LLD's higher than required, the reasons shall be documented in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

h. To be representative of the quantities and concentrations of radioactive materials in liquid effluents, samples shall be collected continuously in proportion to the rate of flow of the effluent stream. Prior to analysis, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite sample to be reperesentative of the effluent release.

RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS Total Dose BASES BL2.5.1.A This limitation is provided to meet the dose limits of 40 CFR 190 that have now been incorporated into 10) CFR Part 20. The limitation requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses from plant radioactive effluents exceed twice the design objective doses of Appendix I. For sites containing up to 4 reactors, it is highly unlikely that the resultant dose to a member of the public will exceed the dose lim:Lts of 40 CFR 190 if the individual reactors remain within the reporting requirement level.

The Special Report will describe a course of action that should result in limiting the annual dose to a member of the public to within the 40 CFR 190 limits. For the purposes of the Special Report, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the member of the public from other uranium fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contributions from other nuclear fuel cycle facilities within a radius of 8 km must be considered. If the dose to any member of the public is estimated to exceed the requirements of 40 CFR 190, the Special Report with a request for a variance (provided the release conditions resulting in violation of 40 CFR 190 have not already been corrected), in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR 190.11 and 10 CFR 20.405c, is considered to be a timely request and fulfills the requirements of 40 CFR 190 until NRC staff action is completed. The variance only relates to the limits of 40 CFR 190, and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose limits in 10 CFR 20, as addressed in Appendix 1, Section 2.3 & 2.4 Limitations. An individual is not considered to be a member of the public during any period in which he/she is engaged in carrying out any operation that is part of the nuclear fuel cycle.

RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program Description SURVEILLANCE LIMITATIONS S2.6.1.A The results of analyses performed on the radiological environmental monitoring samples shall be summarized in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

APPLICABILITY: Applies at all times.

OBJECTIVE: To provide information on the radiological effects of station operation on the environment.

BASES BL2.6.1.A & BS2.6.1.A The radiological monitoring program required by this limitation provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the s:ation operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements the radiological effluents monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways. The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least the first three years of commercial operation. Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The detection capabilities required by Table 2.6-2 are state of the art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories.

RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING 2.6.2 Land Use Census LIMITATION L2.6.2.A A land use census shall be conducted and shall identify the location of the nearest milk animal, the nearest residence, and the nearest garden* oE greater than 500 square feet producing fresh leafy vegetables in each of the 16 meteorological sectors within a distance of Eive miles from the ANO-1 reactor building.

APPLICABILITY: Applies at all times OBJECTIVES: This limitation will identify changes in use of the unrestricted areas.

ACTION:

1. With a land use census identifying a location(s) which yields a calculated dose commitment due to I-131, tritium, and radionuclides in particulate form greater than the values currently being calculated in Appendix 1, Limitation S2.5.1.A and Appendix 2, Limitation S2.4.3.A submit location description in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report per Appendix 1, Section 3.2 Limitations.

2. With a land use census identifying a location(s) which yields a calculated dose commitment (via the same exposure pathway) greater than at a location from which samples are currently being obtained in accordance with Appendix L, Limitation L2.6.1.A, identify the new location in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report per Appendix 1, Section 3.2 Limitations. The new location shall be added to the radiological environmental monitoring program within 30 days, if possible. The sampling location having the lowest calculated dose commitment (via the same exposure pathway) may be deleted from this monitoring program after October 31 of the year in which this land use census was conducted.

Broad leaf vegetation sampling may be performed at the site boundary in the direction sector with the highest D/Q in lieu of the garden census.

RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING Land Use Census SURVEILLANCE LIMITATION S2.6.2.A The land use census shall be conducted at least once per 24 months between the dates of June 1 and October 1, by door-to-door survey, aerial survey, or by consulting local agricultural authorities. The results of the land use census shall be included in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Repor:.

APPLICABILITY: Applies at all times OBJECTIVES: This limitation will identify changes in use of :he unrestricted areas.

BASES BL2.6.2.A & BS2.6.2.A This limitation is provided to ensure that changes in the use of unrestricted areas are identified and that modifications to the monitoring program are made if required by the results of this census. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part

50. Restricting the census to gardens of greater than 500 square feet provides assurance that significant exposure pathway via leafy vegetables will be identified and monitored since a garden of this size is the minimum required to produce the quantity (26 kg/year) of leafy vegetables assumed in Regulatory Guide 1.109 for consumption by a child. To determine -his minimum garden size, the following assumptions were used, 1) that 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegetation (i.e., similar to lettuce and cabbage), and 2) a vegetation yield of 2 kg/square me:er.

2.0 RELEASE CONTROLS LIMITATION L2.0.1 The Limitation and Action requirements shall be applicable during the conditions specified for each limitation.

L2.0.2 Adherence to the requirements of the Limitation and/or associated Action within the specified time interval shall constitute compliance with the Limitation. In the event the Limitation is restored prior to the expiration of the specified time interval, completion of the action statement is not required.

BASES BL2.0.1 This limitation establishes the general requirements applicable to Limitations. Limitations are the lowest functional capability or performance levels of equipment required for safe operation of the facility. When a Limitation is not met, the licensee shall follow any remedial Action permitted by the Limitation until the condition can be met. This limitation establishes the applicability statement within each individual limitation as the :requirement for when (i.e., in which specified conditions) conformance to the Limitation is required for safe operation of the facility. The Action requirements establish those remedial measures that must be taken within specified time :Limits when the requirements of a Limitation are not met. The Action requirements specify the remedial measures that permit continued operation of the facility which is not further restricted by the time limits of the Action requirements. In this case, conformance to the Action requirements provides an acceptable level of safety for unlimited continued operations as long as the Action requirements continue to be met. The specified time limits of the Action requirements are applicable from the point in time it is identified that a Limitation is not met. The time limits of the Action requirements are also applicable when a system or component is removed from service for surveillance testing or investigation of operational problems. Individual limitations may include a specified time limit for completion of a Surveillance Limization when equipment is removed from service.

In this case, the allowable outage time limits of the Action requirements are applicable when this limit expires if the surveillance has not been completed.

BL2.0.2 This limitation establishes the general requirements applicable to Limitations. Limitations are the lowest functional capability or performance levels of equipment required for safe operation of the facility. When a limitation is not met, the licensee shall follow any remedial Action permitted by the Limitation until the condition can be met. This limitation establishes that noncompliance with a limitation exists when the requirements of the Limitation are not met and the associated Action requirements have not been implemented within the specified time interval. The purpose of this limitation is to clarify that (1) implementation of the Action requirements constitutes compliance with a limitation and (2) completion of the remedial measures of the Action requirements is not required when compliance with a Limitation is restored within the time interval specified in the associated Action requirements.

SURVEILLANCE LIMITATION S2.0.l Surveillance Limitations shall be applicable during the conditions specified for individual Limitations unless otherwise stated in an individual Surveillance Limitation.

S2.0.2 Each Surveillance Limitation shall be performed within the specified surveillance interval with a maximum allowable extension not to exceed 25% of the specified surveillance interval.

BASES BS2.0.l This surveillance limitation establishes the general requ:Lrements applicable to Surveillance Limitat:ions. Surveillance Limitations are requirements relating to test, calibration, or inspection to ensure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained and that the limitations will be met. This surveillance limitation establishes the requirement that surveillances must be performed during the conditions for which the requirements of the Limitation apply unless otherwise stated :Ln an individual Surveillance Limitation. The purpose of this surveillance limital:ion is to ensure that the surveillances are performed to verify the operational status of systems and components and that parameters are within specified l:Lmits to ensure safe operation of the facility when the plant is an a specified condition for which the associated Limitations are applicable. Surveillance Limitations do not have to be performed when the facility is in a condition for which the requirements of the associated Limitation do not apply unless otherwise specified.

BS2.0.2 This surveillance limitation establishes the general requ:Lrements applicable to Surveillance Limitalions. Surveillance Limitations are requirements relating to test, caLibration, or inspection to ensure that the necessary quality of systems and components is maintained and that the limitations will be met. This surveillance limitation establishes the limit for which the specified time interval for Surveillance Limitations may be extended.

It permits an allowable extension of the normal surveillance interval to facilitate surveillance scheduling and consideration of plant operating conditions that may not be suitabLe for conducting the surveillance (e.g.,

transient conditions or other ongoing surveillance or maintenance activities).

It also provides flexibility to accommodate the length of a fuel cycle for surveillances that are performed at a refueling frequency and are specified with an 18-month surveillance interval. It is not intended that this provision be used repeatedly as a convenience to extend surveillance intervals beyond that specified for surveillances. This surveillance limitation is based upon engineering judgement and the recognition that the most probable result of any particular surveillance being performed is the verification of conformance with the Surveillance Limitations. This provision is sufficient to ensure that the reliability ensured through surveillance activities is not signif:Lcantly degraded beyond that obtained from the specified surveillance intervals.

RELEASE CONTROLS 2.1 RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION LIMITATION L2.1.1 The radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channels shown in Table 2.1-1 shall be operable with their alarm/trip setpoints set to ensure that the limits of Appendix 2, Limitation L2.3.1.A are not exceeded.

Unit 2 l RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION BASES BL2.1.1 & BS2.1.1 The radioactive liquid effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents during actual or potential releases of liquid effluents. The alarm/trip setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated in accordance with the procedures in this manual to ensure that the alarm/trip will occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.

For the radioactive liquid effluent instrumentation surveillance requirements, the channel test demonstrates that automatic isolat:Lon of this pathway and control room alarm annunciation occur if the instrument indicates measured levels above the trip setpoint. The channel test demonstrates that alarm annunciation occurs if any of the following conditions exist:

A. Power to the detector is lost.

B. The instrument indicates a downscale failure (local alarm only on 2RE-4423).

The initial channel calibration is performed using one or more of the reference standards certified by the National Institute of Standards and Technology or using standards that have been obtained from suppliers that participate in measurement assurance activities with NIST. These standards permit calibrating the system over its intended range of energy and measurement range. For subsequent channel calibration, sources that have been related to the initial calibration are used.

Unit 2 I RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE GASEOUS EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION BASES BL2.2.1 & BS2.2.1 The radioactive gaseous effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents during actual or potential releases of gaseous effluents. The alarm/trip setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated in accordance with the procedures in this manual to ensure that the alarm/trip will occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.

For the radioactive gaseous effluent instrumentation surveillance requirements, the channel functional test demonstrates that control room alarm annunciation occurs if any of the following conditions exist::

A. The instrument indicates measured levels above the alarn/trip setpoint.

B. Power to the detector is lost.

C. The instrument indicates a downscale failure.

For the containment purge and the waste gas holdup system noble gas activity monitors, the channel functional test also demonstrates the automatic isolation of the release pathway occurs if the instrument indicates above the trip setpoint.

The initial channel calibration is performed using one or more of the reference standards certified by the National Institute of Standards and Technology or using standards that have been obtained from suppliers that participate in measurement assurance activities with NIST. These standards permit calibrating the system over its intended range of energy and measurement range. For subsequent channel calibration, sources that have been related to the initial calibration are used.

Unit 2 RELEASE CONTROLS 2.3 RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENTS 2.3.1 Concentration LIMITATION L2.3.1.A The concentration of radioactive material released from the site in liquid effluents to the discharge canal shall be limited to the concentrations specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2 for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration released shall be limited to 2 x 10-4 1iCi/ml.

APPLICABILITY: At all times.

b. For certain mixtures of gamma emitters, it may not be possible to measure radionuclides in concentrations near their senshtivity limits when other nuclides are present in the sample in much greater concentrations. Under these circumstances, it will be rore appropriate to calculate the concentration of such radionuclides using observed ratios with those radionuclides which are measurable.

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

d. A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling, each batch shall be isolated and mixed to assure representative sampling.

e. A continuous release is the discharge of liquid waste of a non-discrete volume, e.g. from a volume of a system that has an input, flow during the continuous release.

f. If continuous samples cannot be obtained, then grab samples shall be collected and analyzed at least 1/24 hrs when the specific activity of the secondary coolant is <0.01 pCi/ml IDE (I-131) or at least 1/12 hrs when the specific activity of the secondary coolant is >0.01 pCi/ml IDE (I-131). Grab sample frequency may be increased due to plant conditions.

g. The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD limitation will apply are exclusively the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141, and Ce-144. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be detected and reported. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the above nuclides, shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses should not be reported as being present at the LLD level. When unusual circumstances result in LLD's higher than required, the reasons shall be documented in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

h. To be representative of the quantities and concentrations of radioactive materials in liquid effluents, samples shalL be collected continuously in proportion to the rate of flow of the e:fluent stream.

Prior to analysis, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite sample to be reperesentative of the effluent release.

Unit 2 RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENTS Concentration BASES BL2.3.1.A & BS2.3.1.A This limitation is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents in unrestricted areas will be less than the concentration levels specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2. This limit provides add:Ltional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water in unrestricted areas will result in exposures within (1) the Section II.A design objectives of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, to a member of the public, and (2) the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.106(e) to the population.

The concentration limit for dissolved or entrained noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xe-133 is the controlling radioisotope and its MPC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) Publication 2.

Unit 2 RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENTS 2.3.2 Dose LIMITATION L2.3.2.A The dose commitment to a member of the public from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released from ANO-2 to the discharge canal shall be limited:

APPLICABILITY: At all times.

ACTION:

1. With radioactive liquid waste being discharged without treatment and in excess of the above limits, in lieu of any other report, submit a Special Report pursuant to Appendix 2, Limitation L3.4.1.A within 30 days.

SURVEILLANCE LIMITATIONS S2.3.3.A Doses due to liquid releases shall be projected at least: once per 31 days in accordance with this manual.

BASES BL2.3.3.A & BS2.3.3.A The requirement that the appropriate portions of this system be used, when specified, provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the liquid radwaste treatment system were specified as a suitable fraction of the dose design objectives set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for liquid effluents.

The values of 0.18 mrem and 0.625 mrem are approximately 25% of the yearly design objectives on a quarterly basis. The yearly design objectives are given in 10 CFR 50, Appendix I, Section II.

The dose calculations established in this manual for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive noble gases in gaseous effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October L977, and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. The equations in this manual provided for determining the air doses at and beyond the site boundary are based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions.

Unit 2 l RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 2.4.3 Dose - Iodine-131, Tritium, And Radionuclides In Particulate Form LIMITATION L2.4.3.A The dose to a member of the public from iodine-131, from tritium, and from all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days in gaseous effluents released from ANO-2 to unrestricted areas (see Figure 4-2) shall be:

1. During any calendar quarter, less than or equal to 7.5 nrems to any organ, and

2. During any calendar year, less than or equal to 15 mrems to any organ.

APPLICABILITY: At all times.

ACTION:

1. With the calculated dose from the release of iodine-131, tritium, and radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days, in gaseous effluents exceeding any of the above limits, in lieu of any other report, submit a Special Report pursuant to Appendix 2, Limitation L3.4.1.A within 30 days.

SURVEILLANCE LIMITATIONS S2.4.3.A Cumulative dose contributions for the current calendar quarter and current calendar year for iodine-L31, tritium, and radionuclides :n particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days shall be determined in accordance with this manual at least once per 31 days.

Unit 2 I RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE GASEOUS EFFLUENTS Dose - Iodine-131, Tritium, And Radionuclides In Particulate Form BASES BL2.4.3.A & BS2.4.3.A This limitation is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.C, III.A, and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50.

The limiting conditions for operation are the guides set forth in Section II.C of Appendix I. The action statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable". The calculational methods in this manual specified in the Surveillance Limitations implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that the actual exposure of a member of the public through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The calculational methods in this manual for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of the subject materials are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide L.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I,"

Revision 1, October 1977, and Regulatory Guide 1.111., "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water-Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977 These equations also provide for determining the actual doses based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions. The release rate limitations for iodine-131, tritium, and radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days are dependent on the existing radionuclide pathways to man in the areas at or beyond the site boundary.

The pathways that were examined in the development of these calculations were: 1) individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, 2) deposition of radionuclides onto green leafy vegetation with subsequent consumption by man, 3) deposition onto grassy areas where milk animals and meat producing animals graze with consumption of the milk and meat by man, and

4) deposition on the ground with subsequent exposure of man.

Unit 2 RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 2.4.4 Gaseous Radwaste Treatment LIMITATION L2.4.4.A The ventilation exhaust treatment systems shall be used to reduce radioactive materials in gaseous waste prior to their discharge when the projected gaseous effluent doses Erom ANO-2 to unrestricted areas (see Figure 4-2) would exceed 0.625 mrad for gamma radiation and 1.25 mrad for beta radiation in any calendar quarter; or when the projected doses due to iodine-131, tritium, and radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days would exceed 1.0 mrem to any organ over a calendar quarter.

L2.4.4.B When degasifying the reactor coolant system, the gaseous radwaste treatment system shall be used to reduce radioactive material in gaseous waste prior to their discharge when the projected gaseous effluent doses for ANO-2 to unrestricted areas (see Figure 4-2) would exceed 0.625 mrad for gamma radiation and 1.25 mrad for beta radiation in any calendar quarter.

APPLICABILITY: At all times.

ACTION:

1. With gaseous waste being discharged without treatment and in excess of the L2.4.4.A limits, in lieu of any other report, submit a Special Report pursuant to Appendix 2, Limitation L3.4.1.A within 30 days.

2. With gaseous waste being discharged without treatment and in excess of the L2.4.4.B limits, in lieu of any other report, submit a Special Report pursuant to Appendix 2, Limitation L3.4.l.A within 30 days.

SURVEILLANCE LIMITATIONS S2.4.4.A/B Doses due to gaseous releases from the site shall be projected at least once per 31 days in accordance with this manual.

Unit 2 RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE GASEOUS EFFLUENTS Gaseous Radwaste Treatment BASES BL2.4.4.A/B & BS2.4.4.A/B The requirement that the appropriate portions of these systems be used, when specified, provides reasonable assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable". This limitation implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, and the design objectives given in Section II.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the systems were specified as a suitable fraction of the dose design objectives set forth in Sections II.B and II.C of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for gaseous effluents. This limitation applies to gaseous radwaste from ANO-2.

Unit 2 RELEASE CONTROLS 2.5 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS 2.5.1 Total Dose LIMITATION L2.5.1.A The calculated doses from the release of radioactive materials in liquid or gaseous effluents shall not exceed twice the limits of Appendix 2, Limitations L2.3.2.A.1, L2.3.2.A.2, L2.4.2.A.1, L2.4.A.2, L2.4.3.A.l, or L2.4.3.A.2.

APPLICABILITY : At all times.

ACTION:

1. With the calculated doses exceeding the above limits, prepare and submit a Special Report pursuant to 10 CFR Part 20.405c.

2. If the limits of 40 CFR 190 have been exceeded, obtain a variance from the Commission to permit further releases in excess of 40 CFR 190 limits. A variance is granted until staff action on the request is complete.

SURVEILLANCE LIMITATIONS S2.5.1.A Cumulative dose contributions from liquid and gaseous effluents shall be determined in accordance with Appendix 2, Limitations S2.3.2.A, S2.4.2.A, and S2.4.3.A, and in accordance with this manual.

Unit 2 RELEASE CONTROLS RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS Total Dose BASES BL2.5.1.A & BS2.5.1.A This limitation is provided to meet the dose limits of 40 CFR Part 190 that have now been incorporated into 10 CFR Part 20 by 46 FR 18525. The limitation requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses from plant radioactive effluents exceed twice the design objective doses of Appendix I. For sites containing up to four reactors, it is highly unlikely that :he resultant dose to a member of the public will exceed the dose limits of 40 CFR Part 190 if the individual reactors remain within the reporting requirement level. The Special Report will describe a course of action that should result in limiting the annual dose to a member of the public to within the 40 CFR Part 190 limits. For the purposes of the Special Report, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the member of the public from other uranium fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contributions from other nuclear fuel cycLe facilities at the same site or within a radius of 8 km must be considered.

If the dose to any member of the public is estimated to exceed the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190, the Special Report with a request for a variance (provided the release conditions resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 have not already been corrected), in accordance with the provision of 40 CFR Part 190.11 a:nd 10 CFR Part 20.405c, is considered to be a timely request and fulfills the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190 until NRC staff action is completed. The variance only relates to the limits of 40 CFR Part 190, and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose :Limits in 10 CFR Part 20, as addressed in Appendix 2, Section 2.3 and 2.4 Limitations. An individual is not considered a member of the public during any period in which he/she is engaged in carrying out any operation that is part of the nuclear fuel cycle.

Unit 2 RELEASE CONTROLS 2.6 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING 2.6.1 Monitoring Program LIMITATION L2.6.1.A The radiological environmental monitoring samples shall be collected pursuant to Table 2.6-1 and shall be analyzed pursuant to the requirements of Table 2.6-1 and 2.6-2.

BASES BL2.6.1.A & BS2.6.1.A The radiological monitoring program required by this limitation provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements the radiological effluents monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways. The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least the first three years of commercial operation. Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The detection capabilities required by Table 2.6-2 are state of the art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories.
