SUMMARY

This Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report describes the Oconee Nuclear Station Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP), and the program results for 0*the calendar year 2007.

  • Included are the identification of sampling locations, descriptions of environmental sampling and analysis procedures, comparisons of present environmental radioactivity levels and pre-operational environmental data, comparisons of doses calculated from environmental measurements and effluent data, analysis of trends in environmental radiological data as Spotentially affected by station operations, and a summary of environmental radiological sampling results. Quality assurance practices and program changes are also discussed.

Sampling activities were conducted as prescribed by Selected Licensee Commitments 0(SLC's). Required analyses were performed and detection capabilities were met for all 0collected samples as required by SLC's. Nine-hundred seventy samples were analyzed

  • comprising 1,348 test results in order to compile data for the 2007 report. Based on the annual land use census, the current number of sampling sites for Oconee Nuclear Station is sufficient.

SConcentrations observed in the environment in 2007 for station related radionuclides were 5within the ranges of concentrations observed in the past. Inspection of data showed that radioactivity concentrations in surface water, shoreline sediment, and fish are higher than the activities reported for samples collected prior to the operation of the station. All positively

  • identified measurements were within limits as specified in SLC's.

0

- ,Additionally, environmental radiological

  • - . monitoring data is consistent with effluents introduced into the environment by plant 0""operations. The total body dose estimated to
  • the maximum exposed member of the public as
  • calculated by environmental sampling data, excluding TLD results, was 8.34E-02 mrem for 2007. It is therefore concluded that station 0operations has had no significant radiological
  • impact on the health and safety of the public or
  • the environment.

2.0 INTRODUCTION

  • 2.1 SITE DESCRIPTION AND SAMPLE LOCATIONS
  • formed by damming the Keowee and Little Rivers in that location. Immediately to the south
  • is the U.S. Government Hartwell Project. The Keowee Hydroelectric Plant near the station joins Lake Keowee and the upper reaches of Lake Hartwell. To the north, the Jocassee 0Hydroelectric Plant joins Lake Jocassee and Lake Keowee. Jocassee is a pumped storage
  • plant.

0 ONS consists of three pressurized water reactors. Each unit has an output of 846 megawatts net. Unit I license for operation was issued 2/6/1973. Unit 2 license for operation was issued

  • 10/6/1973. Unit 3 license for operation was issued 7/19/1974. An independent spent fuel
  • storage installation is also located at the site.

S

  • Figures 2.1-1 and 2.1-2 are maps depicting the Thermoluminescent Dosimeter (TLD) monitoring locations and the sampling locations. The location numbers shown on these maps
  • correspond to those listed in Tables 2.1-A and 2.1-B. Figure 2.1-1 comprises all sample
  • locations within a one mile radius of ONS. Figure 2.1-2 comprises all sample locations
  • within a ten mile radius of ONS.

0 2.2 SCOPE AND REQUIREMENTS OF THE REMP SAn environmental monitoring program has been in effect at Oconee Nuclear Station since

  • 1969, four years prior to operation of Unit 1 in 1973. The preoperational program provides data on the existing environmental radioactivity levels for the site and vicinity which may be used to determine whether increases in environmental levels are attributable to the station.
  • The operational program provides surveillance and backup support of detailed effluent 0monitoring which is necessary to evaluate the significance, if any, of the contributions to the existing environmental radioactivity levels that result from station operation.

This monitoring program is based on NRC guidance as reflected in the Selected Licensee 0Commitments Manual, with regard to sample media, sampling locations, sampling frequency, Sand analytical sensitivity requirements. Indicator and control locations were established for comparison purposes to distinguish radioactivity of station origin from natural or other "man-made" environmental radioactivity. The environmental monitoring program also verifies projected and anticipated radionuclide concentrations in the environment and related 0exposures from releases of radionuclides from Oconee Nuclear Station. This program satisfies

  • the requirements of Section IV.B.2 of Appendix I to 10CFR50 and 10CFR72.44(d)(2) and provides surveillance of all appropriate critical exposure pathways to man and protects vital interests of the company, public, and state and federal agencies concerned with the 0

environment. Reporting levels for radioactivity found in environmental samples are listed in Table 2.2-A. Table 2.2-B lists the REMP analysis and frequency schedule.

The Annual Land Use Census, required by Selected Licensee Commitments, is performed to 0 ensure that changes in the use of areas at or beyond the site boundary are identified and that modifications to the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program are made if required by changes in land use. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appendix I to 10CFR50. Results are shown in Table 3.9.

S Participation in an interlaboratory comparison program as required by Selected Licensee Commitments provides for independent checks on the precision and accuracy of measurements of radioactive material in REMP sample matrices. Such checks are performed as part of the quality assurance program for environmental monitoring in order to demonstrate 0 that the results are valid for the purposes of Section LV.B.2 of Appendix I to IOCFR50. A summary of the results obtained as part of this comparison program are in Section 5 of this annual report.

2.3 STATISTICAL AND CALCULATIONAL METHODOLOGY 2.3.1 ESTIMATION OF THE MEAN VALUE 0

There was one (1) basic statistical calculation performed on the raw data resulting 0 from the environmental sample analysis program. The calculation involved the 5 determination of the mean value for the indicator and the control samples for each sample medium. The mean is a widely used statistic. This value was used in the reduction of the data generated by the sampling and analysis of the various media in the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. The following equation was 0 used to estimate the mean (reference 6.8): 0 N 0 x -

Ixi

  • N Where: 0 x =estimate of the mean, 0 i = individual sample, N = total number of samples with a net activity (or concentration), 0 Xi = net activity (or concentration) for sample i. 0 0

NOTE: "Net activity (or concentration)" is the activity (or concentration) determined 0 to be present in the sample. No "Minimum Detectable Activity", "Lower Limit of Detection", "Less Than Level", or negative activities or concentrations are included in the calculation of the mean. 0 0

  • 2.3.2 LOWER LEVEL OF DETECTION AND MINIMUM DETECTABLE ACTIVITY
  • The Lower Level of Detection (LLD) and Minimum Detectable Activity (MDA) are
  • used throughout the Environmental Monitoring Program.

LLD - The LLD, as defined in the Selected Licensee Commitments Manual is the Ssmallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count,

  • above the system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5%

probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

The LLD is an a priori lower limit of detection. The actual LLD is dependent upon the standard deviation of the background counting rate, the counting efficiency, the 0sample size (mass or volume), the radiochemical yield, and the radioactive decay of the sample between sample collection and counting. The "required" LLD's for each sample medium and selected radionuclides are given in the Selected Licensee Commitments and are listed in Table 2.2-C.

  • MDA - The MDA may be thought of as an "actual" LLD for a particular sample measurement remembering that the MDA is calculated using a sample background instead of a system background.

2.3.3 TREND IDENTIFICATION

  • One of the purposes of an environmental monitoring program is to determine if there is a buildup of radionuclides in the environment due to the operation of the nuclear station. Visual inspection of tabular or graphical presentations of data (including preoperational) is used to determine if a trend exists. A decrease in a particular 0radionuclide's concentration in an environmental medium does not indicate that reactor 0operations are removing radioactivity from the environment but that reactor operations
  • are not adding that radionuclide to the environment in quantities exceeding the preoperational level and that the normal removal processes (radioactive decay, deposition, resuspension, etc.) are influencing the concentration.

Substantial increases or decreases in the amount of a particular radionuclide's release from the nuclear plant will greatly affect the resulting environmental levels; therefore, a knowledge of the release of a radionuclide from the nuclear plant is necessary to 0completely interpret the trends, or lack of trends, determined from the environmental 0data. Some factors that may affect environmental levels of radionuclides include prevailing weather conditions (periods of drought, solar cycles or heavier than normal

  • precipitation), construction in or around either the nuclear plant or the sampling location, and addition or deletion of other sources of radioactive materials (such as the Chernobyl accident). Some of these factors may be obvious while others are 0sometimes unknown. Therefore, how trends are identified will include some judgment
  • by plant personnel.

  • 3.0 INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS 0

Review of 2007 REMP analysis results was performed to identify changes in environmental levels as a result of station operations. The review is summarized in this section. Data from 2007 was compared to preoperational and historical data. Sample data for some media is not 0directly comparable to preoperational and earlier operational sample results because of either

  • significant changes in the analysis methods or changes in the reporting of the results.

0 Evaluation for significant trends was performed for the radionuclides that have required LLDs listed in Selected Licensee Commitment 16.11.6. These radionuclides are collectively referred to Sas "Selected Licensee Commitments radionuclides" and include H-3, Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Zr-95, Nb-95, 1-131, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ba-140, and La-140. Drinking water gross beta results are routinely trended. Trending of air particulate gross beta results was initiated in 1996 when the analysis was resumed. Trending is also performed for other radionuclides that are detected and could have been the result of station effluents. Only Selected Licensee Commitment

  • radionuclides were detected in 2007.

0

  • Trending was performed by comparing annual mean concentrations of any effluent related detected radionuclide to historical results. Factors evaluated include the frequency of detection and the concentration in terms of the percent of the radionuclide's SLC reporting level (Table
  • O 2.2-A). All maximum percent of reporting level values were well below the 100% action level.
  • The highest value reached during 2007 was 3.73% for Cs-137 in a fish sample collected at
  • D Location 067.

Changes in sample location, analytical technique, and presentation of results must be considered 0when reviewing for trends. Calculation of the annual mean concentrations has been performed

  • differently over the history of the REMP. During 1979-1986, all net results (sample minus background), positive and negative, were included in the calculation of the mean. Only positive net activity results were used to calculate the mean for the other years. A change in gamma spectroscopy analysis systems in 1987 ended a period when many measurements yielded
  • detectable low-level activity for both indicator and control location samples. It is thought that the method the previous system used to estimate net activity may have been vulnerable to false-
  • positive results.
  • Data presented in Sections 3.1 - 3.8 support the conclusion that there were no significant 0increases in radionuclides in the environment around ONS due to station operations in 2007.

0Similarly, there was no significant increase in ambient background radiation levels in the surrounding areas.

3.1 AIRBORNE RADIOIODINE AND PARTICULATES 0 In 2007, 312 radioiodine and particulate samples were analyzed, 260 from five indicator 0

locations and 52 from the control location. Particulate samples were analyzed weekly for gamma 0 and gross beta. Radioiodine samples received a weekly gamma analysis.

0 There was no detectable 1-131 in air 0 samples in 2007. Table 3.1-A gives the 0 highest indicator location annual mean 0 and control location annual mean for 1-131 since the preoperational period. 0 The table shows similar concentrations for both the indicator and control 0

locations and the activities decreasing 0 from early in the operational history of 0 the plant. No 1-131 has been detected 0 since 1994.

-Z 0 Cs-137 was not detected in air radioi Aine samples in 2007. Cs-137 has been detected in 0 cartridges in previous years. A study performed in 1990 determined Cs-137 to be an active 0 constituent of the charcoal. A similkar study was performed in 2001 again yielding this 0 conclusion.

0 There were no detectable gamma emitting radionuclides detected in air particulate samples in 0 2007. No gamma emitting particulates have been detected in indicator location samples since the change in gamma spectroscopy analysis systems in 1987. 0 Beta analysis of particulate filters was initiated in March of 1996 and became required by 0 Selected Licensee Commitments in 1998. Gross beta analysis was performed on particulate filters during the preoperational and early operational history of the plant but had not been 0

required since 1984. Figure 3.1 summarizes gross beta results for the indicator location with the 0 highest annual mean and the control location samples. Both the indicator and control location 0 results are similar in concentration and are near the lower range of preoperational gross beta results. 0 K-40 and Be-7 are the naturally occurring radionuclides that were observed in air samples. 0 0

0 3.2 DRINKING WATER 0

0 Gross beta analysis and gamma spectroscopy were performed on 39 monthly drinking water 0 samples. These samples were composited to form 12 quarterly period samples for Tritium 0 analysis. Two indicator locations and a control location were sampled; however, only one of the indicator locations is downstream of the effluent release point.

Table 3.2 lists the highest indicator location annual mean and control location annual mean for 0 gross beta results since the preoperational period. The indicator location had an average S concentration of 1.58 pCi/liter in 2007, and the control location had a concentration of 1.08 pCi/liter. The 2006 indicator mean was 1.54 pCi/liter. The table shows that 2007 gross beta levels in drinking water are slightly lower than preoperational concentrations. The dose for consumption of water was less than one mrem per year, historically and for 2007; therefore low-level iodine analysis is not required.

Tritium was detected in four of the twelve composite samples during 2007. The 2007 mean 0 indicator location 066 concentration was 402 pCi/liter, which is 2.01% of the reporting level.

Table 3.2 and Figure 3.2 show the highest indicator and control location annual means for Tritium since analysis was initiated early in the operational period. Tritium concentrations have decreased at both the indicator and control locations. The closure of the Clemson water plant in 1989 is one reason for the decrease shown in the table and graph. The Clemson site was typically the high mean location when the plant was in operation.

0 There were no gamma emitting radionuclides identified in drinking water samples in 2007.

S Gamma spectroscopy analysis has not detected any activity in the water supplies since 1988.

K-40 is the naturally occurring radionuclide that was observed in drinking water samples.

3.5 BROADLEAF VEGETATION S

Gamma spectroscopy was performed on 48 broadleaf vegetation samples during 2007. Three indicator locations and one control location were sampled. There were no gamma emitting radionuclides identified in vegetation samples in 2007. Table 3.5 shows control location 0 samples have historically contained measurable concentrations of Cs-137 but none was reported in 2007. 0 0

Cs-137 is the only radionuclide, other than naturally occurring, reported in indicator location 0 vegetation samples since the change in gamma spectroscopy analysis systems in 1987.

It is not unusual for Cs- 137 to be present in vegetation. It is a constituent of nuclear weapons test fallout and has been observed in samples from indicator and control locations in previous 0 years. Table 3.5 lists the highest indicator location annual mean and control location annual 0 mean for Cs-137 since early in the station's operational history. Visual inspection of the tabular data did not reveal any increasing trends.

In 2007, gamma spectroscopy was performed on 12 fish samples. Two downstream indicator and one control location were sampled. Cs-137 was identified in seven of the eight indicator location samples. Cs-137 was detected in two of the four control location samples at a mean concentration of 19.1 pCi/kg.

0 The highest average concentration for Cs-137 was 41.0 pCi/kg (2.05% of reporting level).

The highest individual sample concentration for Cs-137 was 74.6 pCi/kg (3.73% of reporting level).

Figures 3.6-1 and 3.6-2 are graphs displaying the annual means for Cs-137 and Cs-134.

Historically, both are contributors to the calculated dose from liquid effluents from ingestion of fish. Radioactivity concentrations in downstream fish samples are higher than those reported in preoperational fish samples, however, concentrations in fish have decreased over time with decreases in radioactive material releases from the plant.

0 One factor affecting the trend analysis is a change in sampling locations. In 1984, a second downstream fish location was added. Location 063 is closer to the liquid effluent discharge point and has been the highest mean indicator since it was added.

0 K-40 was observed in fish samples in addition to the radionuclides discussed above.

Table 3.6 lists the highest indicator location annual means since the preoperational period for radionuclides detected in 2007. Also included in the table are radionuclides that have been identified in this media since the change in analysis systems in 1987.

- Comparison of data to previous years does not indicate any increases in concentrations.

S 3.7 SHORELINE SEDIMENT Gamma spectroscopy was performed on six sediment samples. Two downstream indicator locations and one control location were sampled. Four samples were taken from indicator S locations and two from the control location.

Cs-137 was identified in three of the four indicator location samples. Cs-137 was not 0 observed in any control location samples. The highest 2007 indicator location annual mean 0 was 297 pCi/kg. The highest individual sample concentration of 472 pCi/kg was confirmed through resampling (PIP G-07-00400). Table 3.7 lists the highest indicator location annual means since shoreline sediment was initiated in 1984. Included in the table are radionuclides 0 that have been identified in this media since the change in analysis systems in 1987.

Visual inspection of the tabular data did not reveal any trends. Figure 3.7-1 is a graph of the Cs-137 annual means. Figure 3.7-2 is a graph of the Co-60 annual means. Historically, both are contributors to the calculated dose from liquid effluents from shoreline sediment. No trends are apparent.

0 0 K-40 and Be-7 are naturally occurring radionuclides observed in shoreline sediment samples in 2007.

In 2007, 168 Thermoluminescent Dosimeters (TLD) were analyzed, 160 at indicator S locations, 8 at the two control locations. TLDs are collected and analyzed quarterly. The 0 highest annual mean exposure for an indicator location was 110 milliroentgen. This TLD is located at indicator location 036, 4.32 miles from the station. The annual mean exposure for S the control locations was 108 milliroentgen. 0 Figure 3.8 and Table 3.8 show TLD inner ring (site boundary), outer ring (4-5 miles), and 6 control location annual averages in milliroentgen per year. Data is provided from 1984 when TLD locations were added and arranged in an inner ring and outer ring configuration. 0 Preoperational data is also provided in the table. As shown in the graph, inner and outer ring averages historically compare closely, with control data somewhat higher. Inner and outer 0

ring averages comprise a number of data points with control averages representing only two 6 locations.

The calculated total body dose (from gaseous effluents) for 2007 was 1.91 E-2 mrem, which is 0 0.02% of the average inner ring TLD values. Therefore, it can be concluded that discharges 0 from the plant had very little impact upon the measured TLD values. 6I The maximum measurement from TLDs at the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation 6I (ISFSI) was 750 milliroentgen per standard quarter. This is consistent with previous 6I measurements. TLD measurements in the inner ring (site boundary) have remained relatively 0I constant.

00 4.0 EVALUATION OF DOSE

  • 4.1 DOSE FROM ENVIRONMENTAL MEASUREMENTS 0

Annual doses to maximum exposed individuals were estimated based on measured concentrations of radionuclides in 2007 ONS REMP samples. The primary purpose of 0estimating doses based on sample results is to allow comparison to effluent program dose estimates. Doses based on sample results were conservatively calculated in a manner as equivalent as possible to effluent-based dose estimates.

0Doses based on REMP sample results were calculated using the methodology and data 0presented in NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109. Measured radionuclide concentrations, averaged 0over the entire year for a specific radionuclide, indicator location, and sample type, were used

  • to calculate REMP-based doses, after subtracting the applicable average background concentration (as measured at the corresponding control location). Regulatory Guide 1.109 consumption rates for the maximum exposed individual were used in the calculations. A dose factor of zero was assumed when the guide listed "NO DATA" as the dose factor for a given 0radionuclide and organ.

0 Maximum dose estimates calculated using drinking water, fish and shoreline sediment results are reported in Table 4.1-A. The individual critical population and pathway dose calculations

  • are contained in Table 4.1-B.

0 No radionuclides were detected in broadleaf vegetation, milk, airborne radioiodine or airborne particulate samples other than naturally-occurring K-40 and Be-7. Dose estimates were not calculated for surface water samples because surface water is not considered a potable 0drinking water source although surface water tritium concentrations are used in calculating doses from fish. REMP TLD exposure results are discussed in Section 3.8.

The maximum environmental organ dose estimate for any single sample type (other than

  • direct radiation from gaseous effluents) collected during 2007 was l.O1E-1 mrem to the child 0liver from consuming fish.

0

  • 4.2 ESTIMATED DOSE FROM RELEASES 0

Throughout the year, dose estimates were calculated based on actual 2007 liquid and gaseous effluent release data. Effluent-based dose estimates were calculated using the RETDAS

  • computer program which employs methodology and data presented in NRC Regulatory Guide

0The effluent-based liquid release doses are summations of the dose contributions of the drinking water, fish and shoreline pathways. The effluent-based gaseous release doses report 0 Section 4 - Page I 0

0

0 noble gas exposure separately from iodine, particulate, and tritium exposure. For noble gas exposure there is no critical age group; as the maximum exposed individuals are assumed to receive the same doses, regardless of their age group. For iodine, particulate, and tritium exposure the effluent-based gaseous release doses are summations of the dose contributors from ground/plane, milk, inhalation and vegetation pathways.

4.3 COMPARISON OF DOSES 0 S

The liquid environmental and release data doses given in Table 4.1-A agree reasonably well. The similarity of the doses indicate that the radioactivity levels in the environment do not differ significantly from those expected based on effluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways. This indicates that effluent program dose estimates are both valid and reasonably conservative.

In addition, there are some differences in how effluent and environmental doses are calculated that affect the comparison. Doses calculated from environmental data are conservative because they are based on a mean that includes only samples with a net positive activity versus a mean that includes all sample results (i.e. zero results are not included in the mean).

Also, airborne tritium is not measured in environmental samples but is used to calculate effluent doses.

In calculations based on liquid release effluent pathways, fish and drinking water were the predominant dose pathways based on environmental and effluent samples. The maximum total organ dose based on 2007 environmental sample results was 1.01E-I mrem to the child liver. The maximum total organ dose of 8.59E-2 mrem for liquid effluent-based estimates was to the child liver.

0 In calculations based on gaseous release pathways, vegetation was the predominant dose 0 pathway for effluent samples. The gaseous effluent dose is due to tritium on broadleaf vegetation. The maximum total organ dose for gaseous effluent estimates was 7.06E-2 mrem to the child thyroid. No radioactivity was detected from gaseous pathways in environmental samples; therefore, there is no calculated dose. 0 0

Noble gas samples are not collected as part of the REMP, preventing an analogous

  • comparison of effluent-based noble gas exposure estimates.

The doses calculated do not exceed the 40CFR190 dose commitment limits for members of 0 the public. Doses to members of the public attributable to the operation of ONS are being 0 maintained well within regulatory limits.

0 ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLING AND 0 ANALYSIS PROCEDURES Adherence to established procedures for sampling and analysis of all environmental media at Oconee Nuclear Station is required to ensure compliance with Station Selected Licensee Commitments. Analytical procedures were employed to ensure that Selected Licensee Conmmitments detection capabilities were achieved.

0 Environmental sampling and analyses were performed by EnRad Laboratories, Dosimetry and Records, and Fisheries and Aquatic Ecology.

Section IV of this appendix describes the environmental sampling frequencies and analysis procedures by media type.

0 I. CHANGE OF SAMPLING PROCEDURES Location 084 (Air Radioiodine, Air Particulate, Vegetation) was added as a replacement for indicator location 060 (Air Radioiodine, Air Particulate, Vegetation), which was removed from the program. Movement of the indicator air radioiodine, air particulate, and vegetation location is described in PIP G-06-00180.

II. DESCRIPTION OF ANALYSIS PROCEDURES Gamma spectroscopy analyses are performed using high purity germanium gamma detectors and Canberra analytical software. Designated sample volumes are transferred to appropriate counting geometries and analyzed by gamma spectroscopy.

Perishable samples such as fish and broadleaf vegetation are ground to achieve a homogeneous mixture. Soils and sediments are dried, sifted to remove foreign objects (rocks, clams, glass, etc.) then transferred to appropriate counting geometry.

0 Low-level iodine analyses are performed by passing a designated sample aliquot through a pre-weighed amount of ion exchange resin to remove and concentrate any iodine in the aqueous sample (milk). The resin is then dried, mixed thoroughly, and a net resin weight determined before being transferred to appropriate counting geometry and analyzed by gamma spectroscopy.

Tritium analyses are performed quarterly by using low-level environmental liquid scintillation analysis technique on a Packard 2550 liquid scintillation system or Perkin-Elmer 2900TR liquid scintillation system. Tritium samples are distilled and A

batch processed with a tritium spike and blank to verify instrument performance and 0 sample preparation technique are acceptable.

Gross beta analysis is performed by concentrating a designated aliquot of sample precipitate and analyzing by Tennelec XLB Series 5 gas-flow proportional counters.

0 Samples are batch processed with a blank to ensure sample contamination has not occurred.

0 III. CHANGE OF ANALYSIS PROCEDURES No analysis procedures were changed during 2007.

0 S IV. SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROCEDURES A.1 AIRBORNE PARTICULATE AND RADIOIODINE 0

Airborne particulate and radioiodine samples at each of six locations were 0 composited continuously by means of continuous air samplers. Air particulates 0 were collected on a particulate filter and radioiodines were collected in a 0 charcoal cartridge positioned behind the filter in the sampler. The samplers are 0 designed to operate at a constant flow rate (in order to compensate for any filter loading) and are set to sample approximately 2 cubic feet per minute. Filters 0 and cartridges were collected weekly. A separate weekly gamma analysis was 0 performed on each charcoal cartridge and air particulate. A weekly gross beta analysis was performed on each filter. The continuous composite samples were collected from the locations listed below.

Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD) were collected quarterly at forty-two

  • locations. A gamma exposure rate was determined for each TLD. The TLDs
    • were placed as indicated below.
  • An inner ring of 17 TLDs, one in each meteorological sector in the general area of the site boundary.
  • An outer ring of 16 TLDs, one in each meteorological sector in the 6 to 8
  • kilometer range.

0The remaining TLDs were placed in special interest areas such Sas population centers, residential areas, schools, and control

  • locations.

0

  • TLD Locations are listed in Table 2.1-B.

A.9 ANNUAL LAND USE CENSUS 0

  • An annual Land Use Census was conducted to identify within a distance of 8 kilometers (5.0 miles) from the station, the following locations in each of the sixteen meteorological sectors:

S* The Nearest Residence S* The Nearest Milk-giving Animal (cow, goat, etc.) where milk is used for human consumption

    • The census was conducted during the growing season from 6/5 to 6/6/2007.
    • Results are shown in Table 3.9. No changes were made to the sampling
  • procedures during 2007 as a result of the 2007 census.

V. GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS) ANALYSIS

  • The Oconee site centerline used for GPS measurements was referenced from the
  • Oconee Nuclear Station Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), section 2.1.1.1, Specification of Location. Waypoint coordinates used for ONS GPS measurements were latitude 34°-47'-38.2"N and longitude 82°-53'-55.4"W. Maps
  • and tables were generated using North American Datum (NAD) 27. Data normally 0* reflect accuracy to within 2 to 5 meters from point of measurement. GPS field measurements were taken as close as possible to the item of interest. Distances for
  • the locations are displayed using three significant figures.
