This attachment is a revision to attachment of our letter dated October 13, 2006. It contains a list of the final status survey release records expected to be submitted in support of our FSS report. This FSS report is expected to be submitted on or around the fifteenth of November. Also attached, are the following survey release records:

CLASS 1 FINAL STATUS SURVEY RELEASE RECORDS

  • North West Protected Area (Attachment 2)
  • Central Protected Area (Attachment 3)
  • South Central Protected Area (Attachment 4)

CLASS 1 RELOCATED SOIL SUPPORTING SURVEY RECORD

  • Relocated Soils from Turbine Building/Containment Demolition (Attachment 5)

These records are being provided to facilitate U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission review, as discussed in our April 12, 2006 meeting. Attachments 2,Lnd 3 to this letter comprise those portions of survey packages which may be of use for final review and will be summarized in our FSS report.

The phased release approach is described in Sections 1.4.2 and 5.1.2 of the BRP License Termination Plan (LTP). BRP intends to release site land from the 10 CFR Part 50 license using this phased approach. The first phase includes the majority of the site land scheduled for release after all demolition, remediation and FSS activities associated with plant operation are complete.

BRP LTP Chapter 5 commits BRP to producing FSS package(s) for each survey area and outlines the contents of each supporting survey package.

The intended partial site release supports the process of license termination by demonstrating that an additional portion of the remaining site lands can be released from the Site license. This letter, along with completed and future on-site inspections and letters, provides documentation that demolition activities have been performed in accordance with the LTP.

Your timely review of FSS information and approval of our request to release the associated land is particularly important to the project and smooth transition to an Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI)-only operation.

If you have any questions or comments on these reports, please contact Ken Pallagi, Radiation Protection and Environmental Services Manager at 231-547-8416.

Survey Area Requirements Final Status Survey, Release Record 03C 1 1 North West Protected Area Survey Description Final Status Survey 03C 11 encompasses 1956 m2 at or below the grade elevation present during plant power operations in the north west section of the Protected Area. No materials of plant origin remain in the survey area.

History During power operations the Protected Area supported the components and systems necessary for electrical generation. The location of Survey Unit 03 is adjacent to the transport route used to move spent resin and filter media for radiological survey and offsite removal. Structures and enclosures formerly located in this area were once used for the storage of contaminated materials. A detailed review of the history and radiological characterization of Survey Unit 3 is provided in Appendix 2B and 2E of the LTP (License Termination Plan).

Current Radiological Status Scoping measurements and supporting surveys performed in the Protected Area following removal of subsurface components and demolition debris do not indicate the presence of elevated levels of residual radioactivity in this survey area. Based on operational history and former locations of radioactive systems and material transport pathways the radiological status of this survey unit is Class 1.

Post-Construction Expectations Final Status Survey 03C11 will be performed in the following activity sequence:

1. Walkdown: Environmental Services Survey Group (ESSG) personnel will perform a walkdown assessment to ensure survey area preparations are complete and confirm that the following post-construction expectations have been satisfied as applicable:

" Groundwater and Surface water control is adequate

  • All construction debris has been removed from the survey area

" The survey location status meets all applicable safety requirements

2. Survey Area Isolation and Control: Control measures will be established to ensure that any potential ongoing decommissioning activities in adjacent locations do not impact the current survey area status. Isolation and control measures include postings, barriers, access points, and the evaluation of ongoing work activities in adjacent areas.

Survey Area Requirements FSS 3C 11 Page 1 of 2

3. Survey Design and Execution: Survey design and execution will follow the Data Quality Objectives for 03Cl1 in accordance with the survey requirements established in procedures RM-76, Final Status Survey Design and RM-77, FinalStatus Survey Implementation, and LTP, Chapter 5. Survey size will be based on the statistical requirements of the Sign Test for Class 1 areas with soil samples collected in random start, systematic data point locations. Surface scanning will be performed with 100%

survey area coverage. This survey will be conducted in accordance with approved BRP procedures and follow the guidance of NUREG 1575.

4. Data Quality Assessment: Isolation and control of the survey area will be maintained until the survey Data Quality Assessment demonstrates that the regulatory requirements for unrestricted site release have been satisfied.

Survey Area Requirements FSS O3C1 Page 2 of 2

DATA QUALITY OBJECTIVES Final Status Survey, Release Record 03C11 North West Protected Area STATE THE PROBLEM The Problem:

To demonstrate that the level of residual radioactivity in Class 1 Survey Unit 03 does not exceed the release criteria of 25 mrem/year Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) as specified in the License Termination Plan (LTP).

Stakeholders:

The primary stakeholders interested in the answer to this problem are Consumers Energy Co., and the general public as represented by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ), and the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC).

The Planning Team:

The planning team consists of members of the BRP Environmental Services Survey Group (ESSG). The primary decision maker will be the Final Status Survey Supervisor.

The Final Status Survey Supervisor will obtain input from the site Construction Group and Scheduling Group for issues relating to schedule and costs.

Schedule:

Approximately five (5) working days are projected to implement the survey and to collect and analyze field data.

Resources:

The primary resources needed to determine the answer to the problem are two (2) technicians to perform fieldwork, one (1) technician to prepare the samples and conduct laboratory analyses, and two (2) survey team members to prepare and review the design, generate maps, coordinate field activities and evaluate data.

2. IDENTIFY THE DECISION Several decisions need to be defined to address the stated problem.

PrincipalStudy Question (1):

Does the mean concentration of residual radioactivity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria stated above?

Decision (1):

Determine whether the mean concentration of residual radioactivity in the survey exceeds the release criteria stated in the problem.

Actions (1):

Alternative actions include failure of the survey unit, remediation, or no action required.

Data Quality Objectives FSS 03C 1 1 Page 1 of 5

PrincipalStudy Question (2):

Do any areas of elevated activity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria?

The Decision (2):

Determine if any areas of elevated activity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria.

Actions (2):

Alternative actions include confirmation and investigation, performing the elevated measurement comparison (EMC), remediation, or no action required.

PrincipalStudy Question (3):

Is the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit ALARA as stated?

The Decision (3):

Determine if the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is ALARA.

ALARA requirements for soil remediation are defined in Chapter 4 of the LTP.

Actions (3):

Alternative actions include remediation or no action required.

3. IDENTIFY INPUTS TO THE DECISION Information Needed:

Characterization measurements are required to define the radionuclides present and determine the extent and variability of residual radioactivity in the survey area for design and implementation of the survey. Survey area classification, ALARA analysis, potential radionuclides of interest, and site-specific DCGL values are also required inputs to the decision process. The primary information required for evaluation is the analytical results of survey measurements.

Source of the Information:

The soil sample data to be used for survey development are the radionuclide-specific measurements of representative soil samples collected for radiological characterization and excavated soil surveys conducted to determine suitability for transport of excavated soil to the SVA. The soil samples obtained were judgmentally selected as a result of multiple surveys conducted during the excavation and transport process. The ALARA analysis for potential soil remediation is provided in LTP, Section 4.4.. Site-specific DCGL values and BRP radionuclides of interest are defined in LTP Chapter 5, Table 5-1 and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design.

The survey will be conducted in accordance with applicable regulatory guidance as established in LTP Chapter 5 for Class 1 areas. Soil samples will be utilized for radionuclide-specific measurements in this evaluation.

4. BOUNDARIES OF THE STUDY Boundariesof the Survey:

The target population for this survey is the total thickness of prepared soil in the survey area of 1956 M2 .

Data Quality Objectives FSS 03Cll Page 2 of 5

Temporal Boundaries:

Scanning and sampling in this survey unit will only be performed during daylight hours under dry weather conditions. Surface soils must be free of significant snow cover and standing water prior to surface scanning. Soils must be in a non-frozen state or fragmented for collection to satisfy BRP procedural sampling requirements. The anticipated start date for the survey is September 19, 2006.

Constraints:

Cold weather or rainy conditions may effect the operation of electronic equipment.

Adverse weather conditions that include accumulations of rain or snow may limit area access and delay survey efforts.

5. DEVELOP A DECISION RULE The following decision rules have been developed to define a logical process for choosing among alternative actions for the principal study questions associated with this survey area.

Decision Rule (1):

If all reported concentrations for residual radioactivity are less than the site-specific DCGL's and the unity rule has been satisfied for each sample, then the survey unit meets release criteria. No further action is required.

Decision Rule (2):

If the mean value of activity in the survey unit is greater than the DCGL, then the survey unit fails to meet the release criteria. 1 Remediate, resurvey, and evaluate the results relative to the decision rule.

Decision Rule (3):

If the mean activity in the survey unit is less than the DCGL and any individual sample measurement exceeds this value, conduct the Sign Test and the elevated measurement comparison (EMC) per LTP, Chapter 5 and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design. If the EMC and the Sign Test have been satisfied then the survey unit meets the release Criteria and no further action is required. If the EMC or the Sign Test has not been satisfied then remediate the area(s) of elevated activity, resurvey as appropriate, and evaluate the results relative to the decision rule.

Decision Rule (4):

If the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is ALARA, then no further action is necessary. If the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is not ALARA, then remediate and resurvey.

6. SPECIFY TOLERABLE LIMITS ON DECISION ERRORS The Null Hypothesis:

It is assumed that residual radioactivity in the survey unit exceeds the release criterion.

1 When multiple radionuclides are present the mean activity value is determined as the average of the weighted sum. The DCGL of the weighted sum is 1.

Data Quality Objectives FSS 03C1 1 Page 3 of 5

Type I Error(a ):

The a error is the maximum probability of rejecting the null hypotheses when it is true.

Thea error is defined in the LTP at a value of 0.05 (5%) and cannot be changed to a less restrictive value unless prior approval is granted by the USNRC. The a error value of 0.05 will be used for survey planning and data assessment for this survey area.

Type ilError(,8)6 The ,8 error is the probability of accepting the null hypothesis when it is false. A value of 0.05 (5%) will be used for survey planning and data assessment for this survey area.

The Lower Bound of the Gray Region (LBGR):

The LBGR is initially set at one-half the DCGLw for this survey unit. The LBGR may be adjusted during survey design to achieve an optimum relative shift between 1.0 and 3.0.

Relative Shift (A/c):

The relative shift will be maintained within the range of 1.0 and 3.0 by adjusting the LBGR as appropriate.

7. OPTIMIZE DESIGN FOR OBTAINING DATA Statistical Test Sign Test:

Radionuclides of potential plant origin also present in soil as background activity resulting from fallout constitute only a small fraction of the DCGL. Therefore, the Sign Test will be used where applicable in the survey evaluation to determine if the survey area meets the requirements for unrestricted release.

Number of Samples Determined:

The number of samples required for this survey will be determined based on the relative shift as defined by the requirements of the Sign Test (LTP, Chapter 5.) and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design. The LBGR is initially set at one-half the DCGL, and may be adjusted as necessary for optimizing the survey design to achieve a relative shift between 1.0 and 3.0. Sample point locations are to be determined using a random start, systematic square grid spacing.

Judgmental Sampling:

Co-60 is the most limiting radionuclide for identification by surface scanning; judgmental surface and subsurface core samples will be collected in any location that exceeds the scan investigation level.

Scan Coverage:

Scanning for this survey area will provide 100% coverage.

Number of Samples for Quality Control:

A minimum of 5% of the sample population will be collected for quality evaluation.

These samples may include sample splits, sample recounts, or third party sample Data Quality Objectives FSS 03C11 Page 4 of 5

analysis. Quality analyses will be conducted as defined in LTP, Chapter 5 and Procedure RM-79, Final Status Survey Quality Control.

Additional Sample Analysis Requirements:

The area of soil excavation intersects the identified waterborne pathway for Tritium migration and shall require Tritium in soil analyses for a minimum of 10% of the sample population. Soil samples will be collected in the same random locations as those selected for QA/QC evaluation and sent to an independent laboratory for Tritium analysis. Data results will be provided in the survey package.

Investigation Levels:

Investigation levels defined in LTP, Chapter 5 and BRP Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design, shall be conservatively established for this survey as shown below:

Investigation Levels for Survey 03C1 1 Scan Measurement Soil Sample Analysis

> DCGL > DCGLw The investigation levels for soil sample measurements are meant to include any individual radionuclide result greater than the site-specific DCGL or where the combined radionuclide values exceed the unity rule. Co-60 is the most limiting radionuclide for identification by surface scanning; further investigation will be initiated at any location that exceeds the Co-60 Scan DCGL of 1818 CPM above background as detailed in the survey design.

FINAL STATUS SURVEY DESIGN Release Record 03C 11 North West Protected Area Survey Unit Description Survey 03C,1 encompasses an area of 1956 m2 in the north west section of the Protected Area.

No materials of plant origin exist in this survey unit.

Soil Sample Design Scopina Data Scoping measurements and supporting surveys performed in the Protected Area following removal of subsurface components and demolition debris do not indicate the presence of elevated levels of residual radioactivity in this survey area. Input data for survey design were conservatively estimated based on supporting surveys of excavated soils resulting from subsurface structure and component removal within the Protected Area.

Sample Locations Sample locations are selected in a random start, systematic square grid pattern with the southwest corner of the survey unit as origin (X=0, Y=0). Two numbers between 0 and 1 have been randomly selected and then applied to the survey unit maximum X and Y dimensions to determine the random start location as shown below:

Table 2 Random Numbers Random #, X Axis Random #, Y Axis 0.353393 0.688176 Survey Unit Dimensions: X = 40.0 meters Y = 48.9meters Random Start Location X = (0.353393)(40.0) = 14.1 meters With SW Corner Origin: Y = (0.688176)(48.9) = 33.7 meters Sample Spacing As a conservative measure sample spacing will be calculated based on 18 samples for this survey. Samples are located in a systematic square grid pattern with sample spacing determined by the following:

A nA Where: A= area of survey unit, and n = number of samples.

1956 L 95-6 10.4 meters 18 With sample spacing established at 10.4 meters, 20 data points are available for this survey.

Data point locations are identified in Attachment 2.

QA/QC Sampling A minimum of 5% of the sample population and 5% of the scan survey area are required to be selected for QA/QC verification in accordance with BRP Procedure RM-79, FinalStatus Survey Quality Control. As a conservative measure, three (3) soil samples and 10% of the scan survey area will be selected for QA/QC evaluation. Data point locations for soil samples will be determined by random number selection.

The QA/QC scan starting point and track direction are also determined by random number selection. The first random data point selected will identify the scanning start point and the second random data point will determine the direction in which the scan will track. QA/QC location results are provided in Table 3 below:

The Scan MDC has been established at fractional values of the DCGLwfor typical background activity levels at Big Rock Point. Scan MDC values for varying backgrounds are provided in Attachment 3. The investigation level for identification of potential areas of elevated activity in this survey area will be the Scan DCGL as defined by the following:

Scan DCGL = Detector Rating CPM

  • Exposure Model uR/hr
  • DCGLw uR/hr pCi/g Scan DCGL for Co-60 = 1818 CPM Scan DCGL for Cs-137 = 3518 CPM Where: 1 Detector Rating = 1200 CPM Cs- 137 and 565 CPM Co -60 uR/hr uR/hr Exposure Model = 1.229uR/hr Cs- 13 7 and 5.029 uR/hr Co-60 5pCi/g 5 pCi/g DCGLw = 11.93 pCi/g Cs-137 and 3.21 pCi/g Co-60 The DCGLw for Co-60 is the most limiting value for scanning measurements performed to identify areas of potentially elevated activity. Scanning conducted for this survey will assume all residual radioactivity to originate from Co-60 and the instrument response at the Co-60 DCGLw (1818 cpm) will be used as the scanning investigation level for FSS 03C1 1.

Survey Area Requirements Final Status Survey, Release Record 05C 1 1 Central Protected Area Survey Description Final Status Survey 05C 11 encompasses 1924 m2 at or below the grade elevation present during plant power operations in the central section of the Protected Area. No materials of plant origin remain in the survey area.

History During power operations the Protected Area supported the components and systems necessary for electrical generation. The location of Survey Unit 05 is adjacent to the transport route used to move spent resin and filter media for radiological survey and offsite removal. Structures and enclosures formerly located in this area were once used for the storage of contaminated materials. A detailed review of the history and radiological characterization of Survey Unit 5 is provided in Appendix 2B and 2E of the LTP (License Termination Plan).

Current Radiological Status Scoping measurements and supporting surveys performed in the Protected Area following removal of subsurface components and demolition debris do not indicate the presence of elevated levels of residual radioactivity in this survey area. Based on operational history and former locations of radioactive systems and material transport pathways the radiological status of this survey unit is Class 1.

Post-Construction Expectations Final Status Survey 05C 1 1 will be performed in the following activity sequence:

1. Walkdown: Environmental Services Survey Group (ESSG) personnel will perform a walkdown assessment to ensure survey area preparations are complete and confirm that the following post-construction expectations have been satisfied as applicable:
  • Groundwater and Surface water control is adequate
  • All construction debris has been removed from the survey area
  • The survey location status meets all applicable safety requirements
2. Survey Area Isolation and Control: Control measures will be established to ensure that any potential ongoing decommissioning activities in adjacent locations do not impact the current survey area status. Isolation and control measures include postings, barriers, access points, and the evaluation of ongoing work activities in adjacent areas.

Survey Area Requirements FSS 05C1 1 Page 1 of 2

3. Survey Design and Execution: Survey design and execution will follow the Data Quality Objectives for 05C,1 in accordance with the survey requirements established in procedures RM-76, Final Status Survey Design and RM-77, Final Status Survey Implementation, and LTP, Chapter 5. Survey size will be based on the statistical requirements of the Sign Test for Class 1 areas with soil samples collected in random start, systematic data point locations. Surface scanning will be performed with 100%

survey area coverage. This survey will be conducted in accordance with approved BRP procedures and follow the guidance of NUREG 1575.

4. Data Quality Assessment: Isolation and control of the survey area will be maintained until the survey Data Quality Assessment demonstrates that the regulatory requirements for unrestricted site release have been satisfied.

Survey Area Requirements FSS 05C 11 Page 2 of 2

DATA QUALITY OBJECTIVES Final Status Survey, Release Record 05C11 Central Protected Area STATE THE PROBLEM The Problem:

To demonstrate that the level of residual radioactivity in Class 1 Survey Unit 05 does not exceed the release criteria of 25 mrem/year Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) as specified in the License Termination Plan (LTP).

Stakeholders:

The primary stakeholders interested in the answer to this problem are Consumers Energy Co., and the general public as represented by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ), and the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC).

The Planning Team:

The planning team consists of members of the BRP Environmental Services Survey Group (ESSG). The primary decision maker will be the Final Status Survey Supervisor.

The Final Status Survey Supervisor will obtain input from the site Construction Group and Scheduling Group for issues relating to schedule and costs.

Schedule:

Approximately five (5) working days are projected to implement the survey and to collect and analyze field data.

Resources:

The primary resources needed to determine the answer to the problem are two (2) technicians to perform fieldwork, one (1) technician to prepare the samples and conduct laboratory analyses, and two (2) survey team members to prepare and review the design, generate maps, coordinate field activities and evaluate data.

2. IDENTIFY THE DECISION Several decisions need to be defined to address the stated problem.

PrincipalStudy Question (1):

Does the mean concentration of residual radioactivity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria stated above?

Decision (1):

Determine whether the mean concentration of residual radioactivity in the survey exceeds the release criteria stated in the problem.

Actions (1):

Alternative actions include failure of the survey unit, remediation, or no action required.

Data Quality Objectives FSS 05C 11 Page 1 of 5

PrincipalStudy Question (2):

Do any areas of elevated activity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria?

The Decision (2):

Determine if any areas of elevated activity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria.

Actions (2):

Alternative actions include confirmation and investigation, performing the elevated measurement comparison (EMC), remediation, or no action required.

PrincipalStudy Question (3):

Is the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit ALARA as stated?

The Decision (3):

Determine if the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is ALARA.

ALARA requirements for soil remediation are defined in Chapter 4 of the LTP.

Actions (3):

Alternative actions include remediation or no action required.

3. IDENTIFY INPUTS TO THE DECISION Information Needed:

Characterization measurements are required to define the radionuclides present and determine the extent and variability of residual radioactivity in the survey area for design and implementation of the survey. Survey area classification, ALARA analysis, potential radionuclides of interest, and site-specific DCGL values are also required inputs to the decision process. The primary information required for evaluation is the analytical results of survey measurements.

Source of the Information:

The soil sample data to be used for survey development are the radionuclide-specific measurements of representative soil samples collected for radiological characterization and excavated soil surveys conducted to determine suitability for transport of excavated soil to the SVA. The soil samples obtained were judgmentally selected as a result of multiple surveys conducted during the excavation and transport process. The ALARA analysis for potential soil remediation is provided in LTP, Section 4.4. Site-specific DCGL values and BRP radionuclides of interest are defined in LTP Chapter 5, Table 5-1 and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design.

The survey will be conducted in accordance with applicable regulatory guidance as established in LTP Chapter 5 for Class 1 areas. Soil samples will be utilized for radionuclide-specific measurements in this evaluation.

4. BOUNDARIES OF THE STUDY Boundaries of the Survey:

The target population for this survey is the total thickness of prepared soil in the survey area of 1924 M2 .

Data Quality Objectives FSS 05C 11 Page 2 of 5

Temporal Boundaries:

Scanning and sampling in this survey unit will only be performed during daylight hours under dry weather conditions. Surface soils must be free of significant snow cover and standing water prior to surface scanning. Soils must be in a non-frozen state or fragmented for collection to satisfy BRP procedural sampling requirements. The anticipated start date for the survey is September 18, 2006.

Constraints:

Cold weather or rainy conditions may effect the operation of electronic equipment.

Adverse weather conditions that include accumulations of rain or snow may limit area access and delay survey efforts.

5. DEVELOP A DECISION RULE The following decision rules have been developed to define a logical process for choosing among alternative actions for the principal study questions associated with this survey area.

Decision Rule (1):

If all reported concentrations for residual radioactivity are less than the site-specific DCGL's and the unity rule has been satisfied for each sample, then the survey unit meets release criteria. No further action is required.

Decision Rule (2):

If the mean value of activity in the survey unit is greater than the DCGL, then the survey unit fails to meet the release criteria. 1 Remediate, resurvey, and evaluate the results relative to the decision rule.

Decision Rule (3):

If the mean activity in the survey unit is less than the DCGL and any individual sample measurement exceeds this value, conduct the Sign Test and the elevated measurement comparison (EMC) per LTP, Chapter 5 and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design. If the EMC and the Sign Test have been satisfied then the survey unit meets the release criteria and no further action is required. If the EMC or the Sign Test has not been satisfied then remediate the area(s) of elevated activity, resurvey as appropriate, and evaluate the results relative to the decision rule.

Decision Rule (4):

If the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is ALARA, then no further action is necessary. If the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is not ALARA, then remediate and resurvey.

6. SPECIFY TOLERABLE LIMITS ON DECISION ERRORS The Null Hypothesis:

It is assumed that residual radioactivity in the survey unit exceeds the release criterion.

'When multiple radionuclides are present the mean activity value is determined as the average of the weighted sum. The DCGL of the weighted sum is 1.

Data Quality Objectives FSS 05CO 1 Page 3 of 5

Type I Error(a):

The a error is the maximum probability of rejecting the null hypotheses when it is true.

Thea error is defined in the LTP at a value of 0.05 (5%) and cannot be changed to a less restrictive value unless prior approval is granted by the USNRC. The a error value of 0.05 will be used for survey planning and data assessment for this survey area.

Type I/ Error(,6).

The /6 error is the probability of accepting the null hypothesis when it is false. A value of 0.05 (5%) will be used for survey planning and data assessment for this survey area.

The Lower Bound of the Gray Region (LBGR):

The LBGR is initially set at one-half the DCGLW for this survey unit. The LBGR may be adjusted during survey design to achieve an optimum relative shift between 1.0 and 3.0.

Relative Shift (A/cy):

The relative shift will be maintained within the range of 1.0 and 3.0 by adjusting the LBGR as appropriate.

7. OPTIMIZE DESIGN FOR OBTAINING DATA Statistical Test Sign Test:

Radionuclides of potential plant origin also present in soil as background activity resulting from fallout constitute only a small fraction of the DCGL. Therefore, the Sign Test will be used where applicable in the survey evaluation to determine if the survey area meets the requirements for unrestricted release.

Number of Samples Determined:

The number of samples required for this survey will be determined based on the relative shift as defined by the requirements of the Sign Test (LTP, Chapter 5.) and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design. The LBGR is initially set at one-half the DCGL, and may be adjusted as necessary for optimizing the survey design to achieve a relative shift between 1.0 and 3.0. Sample point locations are to be determined using a random start, systematic square grid spacing.

Judgmental Sampling:

Co-60 is the most limiting radionuclide for identification by surface scanning; judgmental surface and subsurface core samples will be collected in any location that exceeds the scan investigation level.

Scan Coverage:

Scanning for this survey area will provide 100% coverage.

Number of Samples for Quality Control:

A minimum of 5% of the sample population will be collected for quality evaluation.

These samples may include sample splits, sample recounts, or third party sample Data Quality Objectives FSS 05C11 Page 4 of 5

analysis. Quality analyses will be conducted as defined in LTP, Chapter 5 and Procedure RM-79, Final Status Survey Quality Control.

Additional Sample Analysis Requirements:

The area of soil excavation intersects the identified waterborne pathway for Tritium migration and shall require Tritium in soil analyses for a minimum of 10% of the sample population. Soil samples will be collected in the same random locations as those selected for QA/QC evaluation and sent to an independent laboratory for Tritium analysis. Data results will be provided in the survey package.

Investigation Levels:

Investigation levels defined in LTP, Chapter 5 and BRP Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design, shall be conservatively established for this survey as shown below:

Investigation Levels for Survey 05C 11 Scan Measurement Soil Sample Analysis

>DCGL > DCGLw The investigation levels for soil sample measurements are meant to include any individual radionuclide result greater than the site-specific DCGL or where the combined radionuclide values exceed the unity rule. Co-60 is the most limiting radionuclide for identification by surface scanning; further investigation will be initiated at any location that exceeds the Co-60 Scan DCGL of 1818 CPM above background as detailed in the survey design.

Sample Locations Sample locations are selected in a random start, systematic square grid pattern with the southwest corner of the survey unit as origin (X=0, Y=0). Two numbers between 0 and 1 have been randomly selected and then applied to the survey unit maximum X and Y dimensions to determine the random start location as shown below:

Table 2 Random Numbers I Random #, X Axis Random #, Y Axis 0.091956 0.994458 Survey Unit Dimensions: X = 30.3 meters Y = 70.0 meters Random Start Location X = (0.091956)(30.3) = 2.8 meters With SW Corner Origin: Y = (0.994458)(70.0) = 69.6 meters Sample Spacing As a conservative measure sample spacing will be calculated based on 18 samples for this survey. Samples are located in a systematic square grid pattern with sample spacing determined by the following:

L=A n

Where: A= area of survey unit, and n = number of samples.

1924 L= 91-2 10.3 meters 18 With sample spacing established at 10.3 meters, 19 data points are available for this survey.

Data point locations are identified in Attachment 2.

QAIQC Sampling A minimum of 5% of the sample population and 5% of the scan survey area are required to be selected for QA/QC verification in accordance with BRP Procedure RM-79, Final Status Survey Quality Control. As a conservative measure, three (3) soil samples and 10% of the scan survey area will be selected for QA/QC evaluation. Data point locations for soil samples will be determined by random number selection.

The QA/QC scan starting point and track direction are also determined by random number selection. The first random data point selected will identify the scanning start point and the second random data point will determine the direction in which the scan will track. QA/QC location results are provided in Table 3 below:

The Scan MDC has been established at fractional values of the DCGLw for typical background activity levels at Big Rock Point. Scan MDC values for varying backgrounds are provided in Attachment 3. The investigation level for identification of potential areas of elevated activity in this survey area will be the Scan DCGL as defined by the following:

Scan DCGL = Detector Rating CPM . Exposure Model uR/hr . DCGLw uR/hr pCi/g Scan DCGL for Co-60 = 1818 CPM Scan DCGL for Cs-137 = 3518 CPM Where:'

Detector Rating = 1200 CPM Cs- 137 and 565 CPM Co - 60 uR/hr uR/hr Exposure Model = 1.229 uR/hr Cs-137 and 5.029 uR/hr Co -60 5pCi/g 5 pCi/g DCGLw = 11.93 pCi/g Cs-137 and 3.21 pCi/g Co-60 The DCGLw for Co-60 is the most limiting value for scanning measurements performed to identify areas of potentially elevated activity. Scanning conducted for this survey will assume all residual radioactivity to originate from Co-60 and the instrument response at the Co-60 DCGLw (1818 cpm) will be used as the scanning investigation level for FSS 05C11.

Survey Area Requirements Final Status Survey, Release Record 06C11 South Central Protected Area Survey Description Final Status Survey 06C 1 1 encompasses 1977 m 2 at or below the grade elevation present during plant power operations in the south central section of the Protected Area. No materials of plant origin remain in the survey area.

History During power operations the Protected Area supported the components and systems necessary for electrical generation. The location of Survey Unit 06 is adjacent to the transport route used to move spent resin and filter media for radiological survey and offsite removal. Structures and enclosures formerly located in this area were once used for the storage of contaminated materials. A detailed review of the history and radiological characterization of Survey Unit 06 is provided in Appendix 2B and 2E of the LTP (License Termination Plan).

Current Radiological Status Scoping measurements and supporting surveys performed in the Protected Area following removal of subsurface components and demolition debris do not indicate the presence of elevated levels of residual radioactivity in this survey area. Based on operational history and former locations of radioactive systems and material transport pathways the radiological status of this survey unit is Class 1.

Post-Construction Expectations Final Status Survey 06C, 1 will be performed in the following activity sequence:

1. Walkdown: Environmental Services Survey Group (ESSG) personnel will perform a walkdown assessment to ensure survey area preparations are complete and confirm that the following post-construction expectations have been satisfied as applicable:
  • Groundwater and Surface water control is adequate 0 All construction debris has been removed from the survey area 0 The survey location status meets all applicable safety requirements
2. Survey Area Isolation and Control: Control measures will be established to ensure that any potential ongoing decommissioning activities in adjacent locations do not impact the current survey area status. Isolation and control measures include postings, barriers, access points, and the evaluation of ongoing work activities in adjacent areas.

Survey Area Requirements FSS O6C 1 Page 1 of 2

3. Survey Design and Execution: Survey design and execution will follow the Data Quality Objectives for 06C1 1 in accordance with the survey requirements established in procedures RM-76, Final Status Survey Design and RM-77, Final Status Survey Implementation, and LTP, Chapter 5. Survey size will be based on the statistical requirements of the Sign Test for Class 1 areas with soil samples collected in random start, systematic data point locations. Surface scanning will be performed with 100%

survey area coverage. This survey will be conducted in accordance with approved BRP procedures and follow the guidance of NUREG 1575.

4. Data Quality Assessment: Isolation and control of the survey area will be maintained until the survey Data Quality Assessment demonstrates that the regulatory requirements for unrestricted site release have been satisfied.

Survey Area Requirements FSS O6C 1 Page 2 of 2

J DATA QUALITY OBJECTIVES Final Status Survey, Release Record 06C11 South Central Protected Area STATE THE PROBLEM The Problem:

To demonstrate that the level of residual radioactivity in Class 1 Survey Unit 06 does not exceed the release criteria of 25 mrem/year Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) as specified in the License Termination Plan (LTP).

Stakeholders:

The primary stakeholders interested in the answer to this problem are Consumers Energy Co., and the general public as represented by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ), and the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC).

The Planning Team:

The planning team consists of members of the BRP Environmental Services Survey Group (ESSG). The primary decision maker will be the Final Status Survey Supervisor.

The Final Status Survey Supervisor will obtain input from the site Construction Group and Scheduling Group for issues relating to schedule and costs.

Schedule:

Approximately five (5) working days are projected to implement the survey and to collect and analyze field data.

Resources:

The primary resources needed to determine the answer to the problem are two (2) technicians to perform fieldwork, one (1) technician to prepare the samples and conduct laboratory analyses, and two (2) survey team members to prepare and review the design, generate maps, coordinate field activities and evaluate data.

2. IDENTIFY THE DECISION Several decisions need to be defined to address the stated problem.

PrincipalStudy Question (1):

Does the mean concentration of residual radioactivity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria stated above?

Decision (1):

Determine whether the mean concentration of residual radioactivity in the survey exceeds the release criteria stated in the problem.

Actions (1):

Alternative actions include failure of the survey unit, remediation, or no action required.

Data Quality Objectives FSS 06C 1I Page 1 of 5

PrincipalStudy Question (2):

Do any areas of elevated activity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria?

The Decision (2):

Determine if any areas of elevated activity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria.

Actions (2):

Alternative actions include confirmation and investigation, performing the elevated measurement comparison (EMC), remediation, or no action required.

PrincipalStudy Question (3):

Is the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit ALARA as stated?

The Decision (3):

Determine if the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is ALARA.

ALARA requirements for soil remediation are defined in Chapter 4 of the LTP.

Actions (3):

Alternative actions include remediation or no action required.

3. IDENTIFY INPUTS TO THE DECISION Information Needed:

Characterization measurements are required to define the radionuclides present and determine the extent and variability of residual radioactivity in the survey area for design and implementation of the survey. Survey area classification, ALARA analysis, potential radionuclides of interest, and site-specific DCGL values are also required inputs to the decision process. The primary information required for evaluation is the analytical results of survey measurements.

Source of the Information:

The soil sample data to be used for survey development are the radionuclide-specific measurements of representative soil samples collected for radiological characterization and excavated soil surveys conducted to determine suitability for transport of excavated soil to the SVA. The soil samples obtained were judgmentally selected as a result of multiple surveys conducted during the excavation and transport process. The ALARA analysis for potential soil remediation is provided in LTP, Section 4.4. Site-specific DCGL values and BRP radionuclides of interest are defined in LTP Chapter 5, Table 5-1 and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design.

The survey will be conducted in accordance with applicable regulatory guidance as established in LTP Chapter 5 for Class 1 areas. Soil samples will be utilized for radionuclide-specific measurements in this evaluation.

4. BOUNDARIES OF THE STUDY Boundariesof the Survey:

The target population for this survey is the total thickness of prepared soil in the survey area of 1977 M2 .

Data Quality Objectives FSS 06C,1 Page 2 of 5

Temporal Boundaries:

Scanning and sampling in this survey unit will only be performed during daylight hours under dry weather conditions. Surface soils must be free of significant snow cover and standing water prior to surface scanning. Soils must be in a non-frozen state or fragmented for collection to satisfy BRP procedural sampling requirements. The anticipated start date for the survey is September 14, 2006.

Constraints:

Cold weather or rainy conditions may effect the operation of electronic equipment.

Adverse weather conditions that include accumulations of rain or snow may limit area access and delay survey efforts.

5. DEVELOP A DECISION RULE The following decision rules have been developed to define a logical process for choosing among alternative actions for the principal study questions associated with this survey area.

Decision Rule (1):

If all reported concentrations for residual radioactivity are less than the site-specific DCGL's and the unity rule has been satisfied for each sample, then the survey unit meets release criteria. No further action is required.

Decision Rule (2):

If the mean value of activity in the survey unit is greater than the DCGL, then the survey unit fails to meet the release criteria. 1 Remediate, resurvey, and evaluate the results relative to the decision rule.

Decision Rule (3):

If the mean activity in the survey unit is less than the DCGL and any individual sample measurement exceeds this value, conduct the Sign Test and the elevated measurement comparison (EMC) per LTP, Chapter 5 and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design. If the EMC and the Sign Test have been satisfied then the survey unit meets the release criteria and no further action is required. If the EMC or the Sign Test has not been satisfied then remediate the area(s) of elevated activity, resurvey as appropriate, and evaluate the results relative to the decision rule.

Decision Rule (4):

If the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is ALARA, then no further action is necessary. If the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is not ALARA, then remediate and resurvey.

6. SPECIFY TOLERABLE LIMITS ON DECISION ERRORS The Null Hypothesis:

It is assumed that residual radioactivity in the survey unit exceeds the release criterion.

When multiple radionuclides are present the mean activity value is determined as the average of the weighted sum. The DCGL of the weighted sum is 1.

Data Quality Objectives FSS 06C 11 Page 3 of 5

Type I Error(a):

The a error is the maximum probability of rejecting the null hypotheses when it is true.

Thea error is defined in the LTP at a value of 0.05 (5%) and cannot be changed to a less restrictive value unless prior approval is granted by the USNRC. The a error value of 0.05 will be used for survey planning and data assessment for this survey area.

Type II Error(,B):

The f8 error is the probability of accepting the null hypothesis when it is false. A value of 0.05 (5%) will be used for survey planning and data assessment for this survey area.

The Lower Bound of the Gray Region (LBGR):

The LBGR is initially set at one-half the DCGLW for this survey unit. The LBGR may be adjusted during survey design to achieve an optimum relative shift between 1.0 and 3.0.

Relative Shift (A/a):

The relative shift will be maintained within the range of 1.0 and 3.0 by adjusting the LBGR as appropriate.

7. OPTIMIZE DESIGN FOR OBTAINING DATA Statistical Test Sign Test:

Radionuclides of potential plant origin also present in soil as background activity resulting from fallout constitute only a small fraction of the DCGL. Therefore, the Sign Test will be used where applicable in the survey evaluation to determine if the survey area meets the requirements for unrestricted release.

Number of Samples Determined:

The number of samples required for this survey will be determined based on the relative shift as defined by the requirements of the Sign Test (LTP, Chapter 5.) and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design. The LBGR is initially set at one-half the DCGL and may be adjusted as necessary for optimizing the survey design to achieve a relative shift between 1.0 and 3.0. Sample point locations are to be determined using a random start, systematic square grid spacing.

Judgmental Sampling:

Co-60 is the most limiting radionuclide for identification by surface scanning; judgmental surface and subsurface core samples will be collected in any location that exceeds the scan investigation level.

Scan Coverage:

Scanning for this survey area will provide 100% coverage.

Number of Samples for Quality Control:

A minimum of 5% of the sample population will be collected for quality evaluation.

These samples may include sample splits, sample recounts, or third party sample Data Quality Objectives FSS 06C1 1 Page 4 of 5

analysis. Quality analyses will be conducted as defined in LTP, Chapter 5 and Procedure RM-79, Final Status Survey Quality Control.

Additional Sample Analysis Requirements:

The area of soil excavation intersects the identified waterborne pathway for Tritium migration and shall require Tritium in soil analyses for a minimum of 10% of the sample population. Soil samples will be collected in the same random locations as those selected for QA/QC evaluation and sent to an independent laboratory for Tritium analysis. Data results will be provided in the survey package.

Investigation Levels:

Investigation levels defined in LTP, Chapter 5 and BRP Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design, shall be conservatively established for this survey as shown below:

Investigation Levels for Survey 06C1 1 Classification Scan Measurement Soil Sample Analysis Class 1 > DCGL > DCGLw The investigation levels for soil sample measurements are meant to include any individual radionuclide result greater than the site-specific DCGL or where the combined radionuclide values exceed the unity rule. Co-60 is the most limiting radionuclide for identification by surface scanning; further investigation will be initiated at any location that exceeds the Co-60 Scan DCGL of 1818 CPM above background as detailed in the survey design.

Sample Locations Sample locations are selected in a random start, systematic square grid pattern with the southwest corner of the survey unit as origin (X=0, Y=0). Two numbers between 0 and 1 have been randomly selected and then applied to the survey unit maximum X and Y dimensions to determine the random start location as shown below:

Table 2 Random Numbers Random #, X Axis Random #, Y Axis 0.803882 0.025830 Survey Unit Dimensions: X = 60.0 meters Y = 39.3 meters Random Start Location X = (0.803882)(60.0) = 48.2 meters With SW Corner Origin: Y = (0.025830)(39.3) = 1.0 meters Sample Spacing As a conservative measure sample spacing will be calculated based on 18 samples for this survey. Samples are located in a systematic square grid pattern with sample spacing determined by the following:

L=A n

Where: A= area of survey unit, and n = number of samples.

L 1977 1- 10.4 meters 18 With sample spacing established at 10.4 meters, 20 data points are available for this survey.

Data point locations are identified in Attachment 2.

QAIQC Sampling A minimum of 5% of the sample population and 5% of the scan survey area are required to be selected for QA/QC verification in accordance with BRP Procedure RM-79, Final Status Survey Quality Control. As a conservative measure, three (3) soil samples and 10% of the scan survey area will be selected for QA/QC evaluation. Data point locations for soil samples will be determined by random number selection.

The QA/QC scan starting point and track direction are also determined by random number selection. The first random data point selected will identify the scanning start point and the second random data point will determine the direction in which the scan will track. QA/QC location results are provided in Table 3 below:

The Scan MDC has been established at fractional values of the DCGLwfor typical background activity levels at Big Rock Point. Scan MDC values for varying backgrounds are provided in Attachment 3. The investigation level for identification of potential areas of elevated activity in this survey area will be the Scan DCGL as defined by the following:

Scan DCGL = Detector Rating CPM . Exposure Model uR/hr . DCGLw uR/hr pCi/g Scan DCGL for Co-60 = 1818 CPM Scan DCGL for Cs-137 = 3518 CPM Where:1 Detector Rating = 1200 CPMCs -137 and 565 CPM Co -60 uR/hr uR/hr Exposure Model = 1.229uR/hr Cs- 137 and 5.029uR/hr Co-60 5pCi/g 5 pCi/g DCGLw = 11.93 pCi/g Cs-137 and 3.21 pCi/g Co-60 The DCGLw for Co-60 is the most limiting value for scanning measurements performed to identify areas of potentially elevated activity. Scanning conducted for this survey will assume all residual radioactivity to originate from Co-60 and the instrument response at the Co-60 DCGLw (1818 cpm) will be used as the scanning investigation level for FSS 06C, 1.

Survey Requirements Release Record TBCx51 l Relocated Soils From Turbine Building/Containment Demolition Area Survey Description Supporting survey TBCX15 1 consists of soils excavated during Turbine/Containment demolition and the removal of subsurface piping components. The excavated soil was transported to the soil verification area (SVA) and graded to maximum depth of 1.0 meter. The physical size of the survey area is 1800 square meters.

The evaluation of excavated soil will be performed in accordance with procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design. Sample locations will be established by random start, systematic square grid pattern over the graded area. Each soil sample will be a full core homogenized composite that is representative of total soil thickness. Surface scanning will be conducted over 100% of the survey area.

History The soil for survey evaluation originated from a Class 1 area that was excavated to remove concrete and piping components in the Turbine Building/Containment demolition area. Soil remediation efforts were required for some areas associated with subsurface component removal.

Current Radiological Status Based on post remediation analyses and supporting surveys the residual radioactivity in this excavated soil is not expected to exceed DCGL concentration values. Survey documentation is maintained in the 10 CFR 50.75(g) files. Input for this evaluation includes the following survey data:

Turbine Building Demolition Supporting Surveys for Soil Transport and Evaluation TB051005 SB040405 SB042905 TB062805 HH060705 TB052405 SB040605 SB050205 HH050505 TB060905 TB052505 SB040705 SB051705 HH051705 TB080805 TB052605 SB041205 SB051805 HH051905 TB080905 TB060105 SB041905 HH042705 HH041905 Survey Requirements TBC.isI Page 1 of 2

40ý i Post-Construction Expectations Survey TBCx151 will be performed in the following activity sequence:

1. Walkdown: Environmental Services Survey Group (ESSG) personnel will perform a walkdown assessment to ensure survey area preparations are complete and confirm that the following post-construction expectations have been satisfied as applicable:

0 Groundwater and Surface water control is adequate 0 All construction debris has been removed from the survey area 0 The survey location status meets all applicable safety requirements

2. Survey Area Isolation and Control: Control measures will be established to ensure that any potential ongoing decommissioning activities in adjacent locations do not impact the current survey area status. Isolation and control measures include postings, barriers, access points, and the evaluation of ongoing work activities in adjacent areas.
3. Survey Design and Execution: Survey design and execution will follow the Data Quality Objectives for TBCxl 51 in accordance with the survey requirements established in procedures RM-76, Final Status Survey Design and RM-77, Final Status Survey Implementation, and LTP, Chapter 5. Survey size will be based on the statistical requirements of the Sign Test for Class 1 areas with soil samples collected in random start, systematic data point locations. Surface scanning will be performed with 100%

survey area coverage. This survey will be conducted in accordance with approved BRP procedures and follow the guidance of NUREG 1575.

4. Data Quality Assessment: Isolation and control of the survey area will be maintained until the survey Data Quality Assessment demonstrates that the regulatory requirements for unrestricted site release have been satisfied.

Survey Requirements TBCX1 51 Page 2 of 2

DATA QUALITY OBJECTIVES Survey TBCx15 1 Relocated Soils From Turbine Building/Containment Demolition Area STATE THE PROBLEM The Problem:

To demonstrate that the level of residual radioactivity in soils excavated from the Turbine Building/Containment demolition area does not exceed the release criteria of 25 mrem/year Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) as specified in the License Termination Plan (LTP). This soil has been relocated to the soil verification area (SVA) and is to be prepared for survey by grading out to a depth of one (1) meter or less. The excavated soil for evaluation is to be designated as a Class 1 survey area. It must be demonstrated that soils in this survey area satisfy the criteria established for unrestricted release prior to disposition as fill material for onsite usage.

Stakeholders:

The primary stakeholders interested in the answer to this problem are Consumers Energy Co., and the general public as represented by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ), and the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC).

The Planning Team:

The planning team consists of members of the BRP Environmental Services Survey Group (ESSG). The primary decision maker will be the Final Status Survey Supervisor.

The Final Status Survey Supervisor will obtain input from the site Construction Group and Scheduling Group for issues relating to schedule and costs.

Schedule:

Approximately five (5) working days are projected to implement the survey and to collect and analyze field data.

Resources:

The primary resources needed to determine the answer to the problem are two (2) technicians to perform fieldwork, one (1) technician to prepare the samples and conduct laboratory analyses, and two (2) survey team members to prepare and review the design, generate maps, coordinate field activities and evaluate data.

2. IDENTIFY THE DECISION Several decisions need to be defined to address the stated problem.

PrincipalStudy Question (1):

Does the mean concentration of residual radioactivity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria stated above?

Data Quality Objectives TBC,15 1 Page 1 of 5

Decision (1):

Determine whether the mean concentration of residual radioactivity in the survey exceeds the release criteria stated in the problem.

Actions (1):

Alternative actions include failure of the survey unit, remediation, or no action required.

PrincipalStudy Question (2):

Do any areas of elevated activity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria?

The Decision (2):

Determine if any areas of elevated activity in the survey unit exceed the release criteria.

Actions (2):

Alternative actions include confirmation and investigation, performing the elevated measurement comparison (EMC), remediation, or no action required.

PrincipalStudy Question (3):

Is the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit ALARA as stated?

The Decision (3):

Determine if the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is ALARA.

ALARA requirements for soil remediation are defined in Chapter 4 of the LTP.

Actions (3):

Alternative actions include remediation or no action required.

3. IDENTIFY INPUTS TO THE DECISION Information Needed:

Characterization measurements are required to define the radionuclides present and determine the extent and variability of residual radioactivity in the survey area for design and implementation of the survey. Survey area classification, ALARA analysis, potential radionuclides of interest, and site-specific DCGL values are also required inputs to the decision process. The primary information required for evaluation is the analytical results of survey measurements.

Source of the Information:

The soil sample data to be used for survey development are the radionuclide-specific measurements of representative soil samples collected for characterization to determine suitability for transport to the SVA. The soil samples obtained were judgmentally selected as a result of multiple surveys conducted during the excavation and transport process. The ALARA analysis for potential soil remediation is provided in LTP, Section 4.4. Site-specific DCGL values and BRP radionuclides of interest are defined in LTP Chapter 5, Table 5-1 and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design.

The survey will be conducted in accordance with applicable regulatory guidance as established in LTP Chapter 5 for Class 1 areas. Soil samples will be utilized for radionuclide-specific measurements in this evaluation.

Data Quality Objectives TBC, 15 1 Page 2 of 5

5. DEVELOP A DECISION RULE The following decision rules have been developed to define a logical process for choosing among alternative actions for the principal study questions associated with this survey area.

Decision Rule (1):

If all reported concentrations for residual radioactivity are less than the site-specific DCGL's and the unity rule has been satisfied for each sample, then the survey unit meets release criteria. No further action is required.

Decision Rule (2):

If the mean value of activity in the survey unit is greater than the DCGL, then the survey unit fails to meet the release criteria.' Remediate, resurvey, and evaluate the results relative to the decision rule.

Decision Rule (3):

If the mean activity in the survey unit is less than the DCGL and any individual sample measurement exceeds this value, conduct the Sign Test and the elevated measurement comparison (EMC) per LTP, Chapter 5 and Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design. If the EMC and the Sign Test have been satisfied then the survey unit meets the release criteria and no further action is required. If the EMC or the Sign Test has not been satisfied then remediate the area(s) of elevated activity, resurvey as appropriate, and evaluate the results relative to the decision rule.

When multiple radionuclides are present the mean activity value is determined as the average of the weighted sum. The DCGL of the weighted sum is 1.

Data Quality Objectives TBCx151 Page 3 of 5

Decision Rule (4):

If the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is ALARA, then no further action is necessary. If the potential dose from residual radioactivity in the survey unit is not ALARA, then remediate and resurvey.

6. SPECIFY TOLERABLE LIMITS ON DECISION ERRORS The Null Hypothesis:

It is assumed that residual radioactivity in the survey unit exceeds the release criterion.

Type I Error(a ):

The a error is the maximum probability of rejecting the null hypotheses when it is true.

Thea error is defined in the LTP at a value of 0.05 (5%) and cannot be changed to a less restrictive value unless prior approval is granted by the USNRC. The a error value of 0.05 will be used for survey planning and data assessment for this survey area.

Type II Error(/3):

The ,8 error is the probability of accepting the null hypothesis when it is false. A value of 0.05 (5%) will be used for survey planning and data assessment for this survey area.

The Lower Bound of the Gray Region (LBGR):

The LBGR is initially set at one-half the DCGLw for this survey unit. The LBGR may be adjusted during survey design to achieve an optimum relative shift between 1.0 and 3.0.

Relative Shift (A/a):

The relative shift will be maintained within the range of 1.0 and 3.0 by adjusting the LBGR as appropriate.

7. OPTIMIZE DESIGN FOR OBTAINING DATA Statistical Test Sign Test:

Radionuclides of potential plant origin also present in soil as background activity resulting from fallout constitute only a small fraction of the DCGL. Therefore, the Sign Test will be used where applicable in the survey evaluation to determine if the survey area meets the requirements for unrestricted release.

Number of Samples Determined:

The number of samples required for this survey will be determined based on the relative shift as defined by the requirements of the Sign Test (LTP, Chapter 5.) and Procedure RM-76, FinalStatus Survey Design. The LBGR is initially set at one-half the DCGLw and may be adjusted as necessary for optimizing the survey design to achieve a relative shift between 1.0 and 3.0. Sample point locations are to be determined using a random start, systematic square grid spacing.

Data Quality Objectives TBC 1 51 Page 4 of 5

Judgmental Sampling:

Co-60 is the most limiting radionuclide for identification by surface scanning; judgmental surface and subsurface core samples will be collected in any location that exceeds the scan investigation level.

Scan Coverage:

Scanning for this survey area will provide 100% coverage.

Number of Samples for Quality Control:

A minimum of 5% of the sample population will be collected for quality evaluation.

These samples may include sample splits, sample recounts, or third party sample analysis. Quality analyses will be conducted as defined in LTP, Chapter 5 and Procedure RM-79, Final Status Survey Quality Control.

Additional Sample Analysis Requirements:

The area of soil excavation intersects the identified waterborne pathway for Tritium migration and shall require Tritium in soil analyses for a minimum of 10% of the sample population. Soil samples will be collected in the same random locations as those selected for QA/QC evaluation and sent to an independent laboratory for Tritium analysis. Data results will be provided in the survey package.

Investigation Levels:

Investigation levels defined in LTP, Chapter 5 and BRP Procedure RM-76, Final Status Survey Design, shall be conservatively established for this survey as shown below:

Investigation Levels for Survey TBCx1 51 Scan Measurement Soil Sample Analysis

> DCGL > DCGLW The investigation levels for soil sample measurements are meant to include any individual radionuclide result greater than the site-specific DCGL or where the combined radionuclide values exceed the unity rule. Co-60 is the most limiting radionuclide for identification by surface scanning; further investigation will be initiated at any location that exceeds the Co-60 Scan DCGL of 1818 CPM above background as detailed in the survey design.

SURVEY DESIGN Survey TBCx 5sl Survey Design Relocated Soils from Turbine Building/Containment Demolition Area Survey Unit Description Survey TBCx15 1 consists of excavated soils that have been removed from the Turbine Building/Containment demolition area for subsurface structure and component removal. Areas of excavation include the Containment foundation and the following subsurface piping and components:

  • Underground diesel storage tank (heating boiler),
  • Condenser cooling water piping,
  • East side storm drain, and
  • Radwaste effluent piping in Survey Units 8, 9, and 10.

The soil has been graded out to a maximum thickness of one (1) meter over a total area of 1800 M2. Soil sample locations for this survey will be determined using a random start, systematic, square-grid pattern over the graded area. Each soil sample will be a homogenized composite representative of the total thickness of soil. Surface scanning will be conducted over 100% of the graded area.

Soil Sample Design Scoping Data Sample measurements obtained to determine suitability for soil transport to the designated survey area have not identified residual radioactivity above fractional concentrations of the DCGL value. Input data for survey design were conservatively estimated based on supporting surveys for transport suitability obtained in the Turbine Building demolition area.

Relative Shift = 1-0.818 0.091 Relative Shift = 2.0 With cc and P3 error levels set at 0.05 and the relative shift of 2.0, the Sign Test requires 15 sample data points (Table 5.5 NUREG 1575).

Sample Locations Sample locations are selected in a random start, systematic square grid pattern with the southwest corner of the survey unit as origin (X=0, Y=0). Two numbers between 0 and 1 have been randomly selected and then applied to the survey unit maximum X and Y dimensions to determine the random start location as shown below:

Samples are located in a systematic square grid pattern with sample spacing determined by the following:

L=A!n where A= area of survey unit, and n = number of samples.

L, 18 = 10 meters

= 180 Survey Design TBCý15 1 Page 2 of 8

With sample spacing established at 10 meters, 15 data points are available for this survey.

Data point locations are identified in Attachment 2.

QAJQC Sampling A minimum of 5% of the sample population and 5% of the scan survey area are required to be selected for QA/QC verification in accordance with BRP Procedure RM-79, FinalStatus Survey Quality Control. As a conservative measure, three (3) soil samples and 10% of the scan survey area will be selected for QA/QC evaluation. Data point locations for soil samples will be determined by random number selection.

The QA/QC scan starting point and track direction are also determined by random number selection. The first random data point selected will identify the scanning start point and the second random data point will determine the direction in which the scan will track. QA/QC location results are provided in Table 3 below:

The Scan MDc has been established at fractional values of the DCGLwfor typical background activity levels at Big Rock Point. Scan MDc values for varying backgrounds are provided in Attachment 3. The investigation level for identification of potential areas of elevated activity in this survey area will be the Scan DCGL as defined by the following:

Scan DCGL = Detector Rating CPM

  • Exposure Model uR/hr , DCGLw uR/hr pCi/g Scan DCGL for Co-60 = 1818 CPM Scan DCGL for Cs-137 = 3518 CPM Where:1 Detector Rating = 1200 CPM Cs-137 and 565 CPM Co- 60 uR/hr uR/hr Exposure Model = 1.229uR/hr Cs-1 37 and 5.029 uR/hr Co_-60 5pCi/g 5 pCi/g DCGLw = 11.93 pCi/g Cs-137 and 3.21 pCi/g Co-60 These values established in EA-BRP-SC-0201, Nal Scanning Sensitivity for Open Land Survey.

Survey Design TBC 15 1 Page 3 of 8

The DCGLw for Co-60 is the most limiting value for scanning measurements performed to identify areas of potentially elevated activity. Scanning conducted for this survey will assume all residual radioactivity to originate from Co-60 and the instrument response at the Co-60 DCGLw (1818 cpm) will be used as the scanning investigation level for Survey TBCx15 1.

X1 Confirm that all inputs to the decision have been reviewed and are complete.

Z1* Verify that boundaries or constraints identified in the survey area have not affected the quality of the data.

Review the Statement of Hypothesis and confirm that it remains relevant.

__ Confirm that Type I and Type IIerror limits are consistent with DQOs.

J Confirm that the survey design is consistent with DQOs and that the appropriate number of data points were obtained.

3.2 Preliminary Review:

3.2.1 Preliminary Evaluation:

Quality Assessment (QA) reports consistent with procedure RM-79, Final Status Survey Quality Control.

v/ Survey is of sufficient intensity to satisfy classification requirement.

__ Potential trends of radioactivity levels in the survey area do not impact a decision for unrestricted release.

a. Number of qualified data points
b. Calculation of the Mean O2ocOV
c. Calculation of the Median
d. Calculation Standard Deviation Attach graphic representation of the data if any radionuclide-specific measurements exceed 50% of the DCGL.

Sample QA/QC measurements consistent with FSS data 3.3 Statistical Evaluation:

NOTE: If all measurement data are less than the DCGLw, statistical testing in not required and the survey unit meets the regulatory requirement for unrestricted release.

.wj" All survey measurements are below the DCGLw.

3.3.1 Verify Assumptions of the Survey Design

-__ Review the posting plot to verify that the data exhibits spatial independence. Spatial trends must be investigated and resolved prior to further assessment.

_ Review to verify dispersion symmetry. The appearance of skewed data must be investigated for cause and documented prior to further assessment.

RM-78 Revision 2 FINAL STATUS SURVEY ASSESSMENT Page 25 of 26 RM-78-3 DATA ASSESSMENT REPORT Page 7 of 8 X/ Review the dataset standard deviation and range for data variance.

Questionable data must be investigated for cause and documented prior to further assessment.

_ Verify that the data exhibits adequate power and confirm that the sample size is sufficient to satisfy the DQOs.

3.4 Draw Conclusions from the Data:

3.4.1 Investigation Levels and Response Actions Determine if data results have exceeded any inyestiation level.

Document findings.

3.4.2 Evaluation for Unrestricted Release Select applicable conclusion:

Survey area acceptance criteria met and survey area satisfies the requirements for unrestricted release:

___ All concentrations are less than the DCGLw. The Null Hypothesis is rejected.

The mean concentration of the survey area is below the DCGLw but individual measurements in the survey unit exceed the DCGLw. The Sign Test and EMC evaluation are successful and the Null Hypothesis is rejected.
