SUBJECT:

INTERIM REPORT FOR COMPLETED ANALYSES FOR SAMPLES FROM SET TWENTY-ONE, FROM T H E INDIAN POINT POWER STATION, BUCHANAN, NEW YORK

[INSPECTION REPORT NO. 050-247/2006-007) [RFTA NO. 06-0011

Dear Mr. Kottan:

The Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education (ORISE) received set 21, consisting of one water sample, associated with the Indian Point Power Station on February 7,2007. Sample analysis was initiated based on your previous direction for handling samples from this licensee. Sample identification and collection data for the samples addressed in this report are presented k Table 1. Gamma spectroscopy, the hard-to-detect betas (iron-55, nickel-63, and tritium), tecbnetiun-99, total radiostrontium, alpha spectroscopy, plutonium-241, and carbon-14 data are provided in Tables 2 through 8, respectively. The pertinent procedure references are provided in each specific table.

ORISE's Quality Control (QC) requirements were met for these analyses. The QC files are avadable for your review upon request. Additional reports will follow after the completion of the requested analyses.

ORISE has removed the Ni-59 data due to problems with the calculation associated with the concentration of this radionuclide. ORISE is discontinuing the reporting of Ni-59 data until this problem can be resolved.

My contact information is listed below, You may also contact Wade h e y at 865576.9184 with any questions or comments.
