C C C AIR SAMPLES 2002 All Air Samples for the Year.2002 are within the expected historical range.

The historical range for alpha is from less than the detection limit to 0.007 1 p Ci/r 3 . The samples for 2002 range from 0.0007 to 0.0053 pCi/r 3 .

The historical range for beta is from less than the detection limit to 0.0251 pCi/mn 3 . The samples for 2002 range from 0.0010 to 0.0220 pCi/M 3 .

Air samples are taken at various fixed locations using a line liowered piston type compressor operating at a rate of 1 cubic foot per minute nominal. The sample is collected on a fiberglass 2" diameter filter. Collection time is continuous With a nominal sampling period of four weeks.

The air filters are analyzed for gross alpha and'gross beta-using an alpha/beta proportional counter. Results are reported in picoCuries per cubic meter of air with 2 sigma (standard deviation) value.

BIOTA 2002 All Biota for the Year 2002 are within the expected historical range.

The historical ranges for plant material:

Cesium-137* is less than the detection limit; Potassium-40** is-from 2,000 to 13,000 pCi/kg, Beryllium-7*** is from less than the detection limit to 1,500 pCi/kg.

The plant sample for 2002 lies within these historical ranges. See table below.

The historical ranges for fungi:

Cesium-137 is 50 to 9,000 pCi/kg, Potassium-40 is from 1,000 to 12,000 pCi/kg, Beryllium-7 is less than the detection limit, Cesium-134**** is from less than the detection limit to 45 pCi/kg.

The fungi sample for 2002 lies within these historical ranges. See table below.

The historical ranges for ferns:

Cesium-137 is from less than the detection limit to 540 pCi/kg, P'tassium-40 is from 4,000 to 11,000 pCi/kg, Beryllium-7 is from 100 to 4,000 pCi/kg.

There was no fern sample for 2002.

The historical ranges for honey:

Cesium-137 is from less than the detection limit to 200 pCi/kg, Potassium-40 is from 300 to 2,000 pCi/kg, Beryllium-7 is.less than the detection limit.

Honey is no longer sampled.

Occasional sampling, most often once a year, is done on forage or wild foods as available or needed.

Samples are collected (usually in the Northwest q~uadrant) within a mile or two from the facility. These normally consist of ferns (fiddleheads), edible fungi (Clavaria sp., Boleti sp., Russlae sp., grapes, etc.) and grass. Sample sizes range from 250 to 1,000 grams. The samples are weighed, placed wet in reentrant beakers and analyzed in the Gamma Spectrometer System using a reverse germanium detector. Usual spectra include primordial radionuclides, archival Cesuim-137 and occasional cosmogenic Beryllium-7.

Reporting units are picoCuries per kilogram with 2 sigma (standard deviation) value.

FISH 2002 All Fish Samples for the Year 2002 are within the expected historical range.

The historical range for Cesium-137* is from less than the detection limit to 100 pCi/kg. The samples for 2002 range are less than the detection limit.

The historical range for Potassium-40** is from1,000 to 5,000 pCi/kg. The samples for 2002 range from 2,230 to 2,400 pCi/kg.

Two locations (3-4 Vernon Pond and 3-8 Route 9 Highway bridge) provide fish samples in the Spring and

-Fall "ofabout one kilogram foi each sample. Fish are capttired via an electroshock method. The fish are frozen whole, weighed, and chopped or blended (entire) for loading into a reentrant beaker. It is subsequently analyzed with a Gamma Spectrometer System using 'a reverse germanium detector.

Radionuclides detected usually. include naturally occurring ..Potassium-40, Thorium and Uranium with daughters, archival Cs-137 due to former open atmospheric nuclear tests, and occasional traces of cosmogenic Beryllium-7. Reporting units are picoCuries per kilogram with 2 sigma (standard deviation) value.

IODINE CARTRIDGES 2002 All Iodine Cartridges for the Year 2002 are within the expected historical range.

The historical range for iodine-131 in air cartridges is less than the detection limit. The samples for 2002 were less than the detection limit.-

Air samples are taken at various fixed locations using a line powered piston type compressor operating at a rate of 1 cubic foot per minute nominal. The sample is collected on a charcoal cartridge loaded with TEDA for iodine collection. The charcoal cartridge follows the filtration of air by a glass fiber filter in the air sampling train at all air sampling stations. Collection time is continuous with a nominal sampling period of four weeks. Response to Chernobyl iodine release was marked, proving the sensitivity to environmental trace levels of iodine of this'system. The air cartridges are analyzed for Iodine-131 .with the Gamma Spectrometer System using a reverse germanium detector. The nominal lower limit of detection is 2 x 10-5 pCi/l of air.

The historical range for Iodine-131 is less than the detection limit. The samples for 2002 are all less than the detection limit.

The historical range for Potassium-40* is from 1,200 to 2,000 pCi/L. The samples for 2002 range from 1,300 to 1,830 pCi/L.

Milk sampling is performed at a frequency of once per month. The samples are measured, placed into reentrant beakers and analyzed in the Gamma Spectrometer System using a reverse germanium detector.

Usual spectra include terrestrial Potassium-40. The nominal detection limit for 'Iodine-131 is 10 picoCuries/liter. Significant indications of the presence of any other radionuclides are investigated and reported if found. Reporting units are.picoCuries per liter with 2 sigma (standard deviation) value.

C ." C C THERMOLUMINESCENT DOSIMETRY (TLD) DATA 2002 All TLDs for the Year 2002 are within the expected historical range.

The historical range for TLDs ranges from 10 to 45 mR/quarter. The samples for 2002 range from 17.0 to 32.5 mR/quarter.

Thermoluminescent detectors are provided to the State of Vermont by Proxtonics, Inc. and are deployed for a quarterly sampling interval.

This method samples direct gamma radiation in the environment. Detectors utilize crystals which store energy from gamma and x-rays until analyzed for their cumulative energy exposure experience. Vermont has forty selected locations where direct radiation levels are measured for.

Some of these sites are located where other types of samples are taken (e.g. air, milk, water, etc.).. Levels of direct radiation from the natural environment are routinely detected at each site. Reporting units are milliRoentgens/quarter with 2 sigma (standard deviation) value.

TRITIUM IN WATER 2002 VERMONT YANKEE (CONNECTICUT RIVER)

All Tritium in Water Samples for the Year 2002 are within the expected historical range.

The historical range for tritium in water is less than the detection limit. The samples for 2002 are less than the detection limit.

As part of the water sampling effort, an aliquot of the monthly grab samples is analyzed for Hydrogen-3.

Two locations are reported monthly fdr Hydrogen-3 content from the Connecticut River (upstream and downstream of the power station). The samples are analyzed by liquid scintillation counting. The detection limit for tritium is 0.5 nCi/l. Reporting units are nanoCuries/liter with 2 sigma (standard deviation) value.

WATER SAMPLES 2002 All Water Samples for the Year 2002 are within the expected histroical range.

The historical range for alpha is from less than the detection limit to 15 pCi/l. The samples for 2002 range from less than the detection limit to 7.4 pCi/l.

The historical range for beta is from less than the detection limit to 15 pCi/1. The samples for 2002 range from less than the detection limit to 5.2 pCi/l.

Water samples are collected monthly from 8 sites. One gallon of water is placed in a reentrant beaker and analyzed on the Gamma spectrometer system using a reverse germanium detector. Usual spectra include primordial radionuclides. Reporting units are picoCuries per liter with 2 sigma (standard deviation) value.
