4.2 Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) - A plant-specific document that contains the methodology and parameters used in the calculation of offsite doses resulting from radioactive gaseous and liquid effluents, in the calculation of gaseous and liquid effluent monitoring Alarm/Trip set points, and in the conduct of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. This document also contains the Radioactive Effluent Controls and Radiological Environmental Monitoring Programs required by TS 5.5.4. Also contained in this document are descriptions of the information that should be included in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report and the Radioactive Effluent Release Report required by TS 5.6.2 and 5.6.3.
5.0 Responsibilities 5.1 Radioactive Effluent Release Report 5.1.1 Plant Chemistry Department The plant Chemistry department is responsible for data collection and assimilation and for generation of the report including any required attachments.
In addition to the generation of the report, the department will review site meteorological data, confirming accuracy and completeness. The department will then submit the report and the annual meteorological data summary to Environmental Affairs 5.1.2 Environmental Affairs Environmental Affairs is responsible for reviewing the Radioactive Effluent Release Report and the site meteorological data summary, working with site personnel to resolve any problems that are identified, and submitting the Radioactive Effluent Release Report to Nuclear Licensing.
5.1.3 Nuclear Licensing Nuclear Licensing is responsible for obtaining executive review and approval and for distribution of the Radioactive Effluent Release Report including submission to the NRC.
5.2 ODCM 5.2.1 Plant Chemistry Department The plant Chemistry department is responsible for initiating changes as required to the ODCM and coordinating review or workup of the changes through Environmental Affairs prior to obtaining the necessary plant management review
including PRB approval. In emergency or urgent situations, ODCM changes may be completed and approved on site prior to review by Environmental Affairs.
These changes will then be sent to Environmental Affairs for consistency review and processing.
5.2.2 Environmental Affairs Environmental Affairs is responsible for initiating, reviewing, processing changes, and coordinating plant Chemistry department review or workup to the ODCM as requested by the plant or corporate plant support or other initiating event.
5.2.3 Nuclear Licensing Nuclear Licensing is responsible for the submission of the revised ODCM to the NRC as an attachment to the plant's Radioactive Effluent Release Report.
5.2.4 Document Services After receiving an approved ODCM change from Environmental Affairs, Document Services is responsible for making electronic changes, posting to SyncPower, and for distribution of the ODCM change to copy holders of the ODCM as required.
6.0 Procedure 6.1 Radioactive Effluent Release Report Processing and Review This section is to provide general guidelines for processing, review, approval, and submittal of the Radioactive Effluent Release Report.
6.1.1 Plant Chemistry Department 6.1.1.1 Collect and assimilate the data and tables for insertion into the report, including the solid radioactive waste data from the Health Physics department.
6.1.1.2 Perform the initial report review.
6.1.1.3 Transmit to Environmental Affairs for comments and/or corrections.
6.1.1.4 Incorporate resolution comments/corrections and redistribute.
6.1.1.5 Obtain plant management approval.
6.1.1.6 Transmit the final report to Environmental Affairs by April 15 (Note: the final version of the report will be clearly and uniquely identified as the final version).
6.1.1.7 If the ODCM was revised during the year, a copy of the revised ODCM must accompany the final report.
