Tritium results from two (2) of seventeen (17) wells were >2000 pCi/L, which are similar to results initially communicated in 2007. All gamma spectrometry analyses were <LLD.No adverse effect has been detected in offsite groundwater, drinking water and surface water.Onsite Spills: There were no onsite spills >100 gallons.Decommissioning File Update: There were no items added to the site decommissioning files in accordance with 10CFR50.75(g).

Abnormal Liquid Releases:

There were no abnormal liquid releases.Abnormal Gaseous Releases:

There were no abnormal gaseous releases.Liquid Radwaste Treatment System: The site operated via a shared Liquid Radwaste Treatment System, even though each Unit has its own ion-exchange vessels. Shared operation allowed either Unit to process liquid waste at the Unit of origin, or at the other Unit. Typically, when Unit 1 or 2 high level liquid waste was processed (e.g., coolant recovery waste) it was performed at. Unit 1, because it has a carbon pre-conditioning filter.Gaseous Radwaste Treatment System: The site operated via a shared Gaseous Radwaste Treatment System, even though each Unit has its own charcoal delay beds and storage/decay tanks. Shared operation allowed either Unit to process gaseous waste at the Unit of origin, or at the other Unit. Typically, when Unit 1 or 2 went to a shutdown condition, the gaseous waste was transferred for storage and decay at Unit 2, because Unit 2 has four (4) additional storage tanks.I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Form 1/2-ENV-01.05.FO1 (page 5 of 38), Rev 2 RTL# A9.690E Beaver Valley Power Station -Units 1 & 2 Enclosure 2, Page v Radioactive Effluent Release Report Calendar Year -2008 Executive Summary -Liquid and Gaseous Effluent Control (Part 2 of 2)Lower Limits of Detectability (LLD): All a-priori calculated LLD met the minimum requirements specified in the ODCM.Effluent Monitoring Channels Inoperable

>30 Days: There were two (2) Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation Channels not returned to Operable status within 30 days. They are described in table 6 ODCM Surveillance Deficiencies:

There were two ODCM Surveillance Deficiencies.

They are described intable 8.ODCM Changes: There were no changes made to the ODCM.Meteorological Data Recovery:

The Meteorological Data Recovery met the minimum requirement of at-least 90%, as specified in Section 5 of Revision I to Regulatory Guide 1.23, Meteorological Monitoring Programs for Nuclear Power Plants.Population Dose vs. Natural

Background:

The 0-50 mile total and average population doses were calculated using liquid and gaseous release quantities and real time meteorology.

The average population dose is based on four (4) million people within 0-50 miles of the BVPS site. The following comparison to natural background radiation demonstrates that BVPS operations did not adversely affect the surrounding environment.

564 man-morem

=BVPS Total Population Dose for the year 0.0,001365 mremn = BVPS Average Individual Dose for the year 296 mrem = Natural Background Individual Dose for the year. This dose'value is documented as natural background radiation exposure for an individual in a year from the 1990 BEIR V Report.

-Unit 1 Auxiliary Feed Pump Bay Drain Monitor On 11/16/08 this monitor was removed from service to perform the eighteen (18) month calibration.

The installed Model 843-32 detector failed calibration requirements, and several attempts to calibrate new detectors (that were located from old stock and other nuclear power plants) were also unsuccessful.

The thirty (30) day criteria was exceeded due to performance of model 843-32 detectors that are no longer manufactured.

An upgraded detector (Model 843-32R) was purchased (Which required an updated calibration geometry), and subsequent changes were made to applicable engineering documents, calculation packages and procedures.

The monitor was calibrated and returned to operable status on 02/05/09.

This condition and associated Corrective Actions are detailed in BVPS Condition Report No. CR08-50435, CR08-50765, CR08-50899, CR09-52947, CR09-52964 and BVPS-SAP Order Number 200197646-0700.

As required by ODCM procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03, "Controls for RETS and REMP Programs", (as referenced in procedure Attachment E, Control 3.3.3.9, Table 3.3-12, Action 24), effluent releases via this pathway may. continue provided grab samples are analyzed once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months . However, SINCE this liquid effluent pathway was diverted to the Tunnel Sump / Liquid Radwaste Treatment.

System on 11/16/08 (and remained diverted until the monitor was returned to operable status on 02/05/09), THEN there were no liquid releases through this effluent pathway. Therefore, grab sampling was not required.[2RMO-RO303]

-Unit 2 Waste Gas Storage Vault Vent Noble Gas Activity Monitor On 04/25/08 this monitor was removed from service due to a stuck check source. The thirty (30)day criteria was exceeded due to availability of rep5lacement solenoid, and an apparent misinterpretation of the required due date to return the monitor to Operable status. This condition and associated Corrective Actions are detailed in BVPS Condition Report No. CR09-56073, and BVPS-SAP Order Number 200197646-0800.

As required by ODCM procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03, "Controls for RETS and REMP Programs", (as referenced in procedure Attachment F, Control 3.3.3.10, Table 3.3-13, Action 29), effluent releases via this pathway may continue provided grab samples are taken at least once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months and analyzed for gross radioactivity within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days 0.00667 hours 3.968254e-5 weeks 9.132e-6 months . A total of 102 grab samples were obtained and analyzed until the monitor was returned to operable status on 05/29/08.

All gamma spectrometry analyses of these samples were less than LLD.

Evaluations have shown that exposure time for individuals not occupationally associated with the plant site is minimal in comparison to the exposure time considered for the dose calculation at or beyond the site boundary.

Therefore, a separate assessment of radiation doses from radioactive effluents to MEMBER(S)

Contrary to this requirement, the DRMS filter media (for all five of the continuous gaseous effluent pathways) ran for a 14-day period (04/02/08

-04/16/08) instead of the required 7-day period (04/02/08

-04/09/08).

SINCE this is a Surveillance Deficiency of ODCM procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03, Attachment K, Surveillance Requirement 4.11.2.1.2, Table 4.11-2, THEN annotation is required in the 2008 Radioactive Effluent Release Report per the reporting requirements of ODCM procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03, Attachment U, Control 6.9.3.The five continuous gaseous effluent pathways that were not changed-out per the ODCM requirement are as follows: 1) VV-2, Unit 2 SLCRS Unfiltered Pathway [2HVS-RQ1 01]2) CV-2, Unit 2 SLCRS Filtered Pathway [2HVS-RQ1 09]3) DV-2, Unit 2 Decontamination Building Vent Pathway [2RMQ-RQ301]

4) WV-2, Unit 2 Waste Gas storage Vault Vent Pathway [2RMQ-RQ303]

5) CB-2, Unit 2 Condensate Polishing Building Vent Pathway [2HVL-RQ1 12]There were no consequences to the health and safety of the public by failing to obtain the samples on the required date. Specifically, no samples were lost, and a follow-up review of the sample analyses provided assurance that the effluent activity of the short-lived radionuclide of interest (e.g.; 1-131 with half-life

= 8.04 days) was not underestimated as a result of exceeding the normal sample period. This condition and associated Corrective Actions are detailed in BVPS Condition Report No. CR08-38484, and BVPS-SAP Order Number 200197646-0500.

Failure to Obtain a Grab Sample From an Inoperable Gaseous Effluent Monitor ODCM procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03 "Controls for RETS and REMP Programs", Attachment F, Control 3.3.3.10, Table 3.3-13, Action 29 requires that effluent releases may continue via this pathway provided grab samples are taken at least once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months .Contrary to this requirement, a grab sample for the radiation monitor on Unit 2 Condensate Polishing Building Vent Pathway [2HVL-RQ1 12] was missed during the inoperable period. The timeline of the condition indicated that on 10/23/08 the monitor was declared inoperable and the required once per shift grab samples were initiated.

On 11/06/08 at 1610 hours0.0186 days 0.447 hours 0.00266 weeks 6.12605e-4 months the monitor was prematurely declared operable following repair, valve line-ups and set point verifications and the ODCM actions listed above were prematurely exited. On 11/07/08 at 0430 hours0.00498 days 0.119 hours 7.109788e-4 weeks 1.63615e-4 months it was noted that the operations surveillance associated with the monitor was overdue, and the monitor was again declared inoperable.

In summary, since the monitor had been prematurely declared operable, then there was a failure to obtain a grab sample during an inoperable period.Sampling resumed until the monitor was properly returned to operable status on 11/07/08.This condition and associated Corrective Actions are detailed in BVPS Condition Report No. CR08-49089, and BVPS-SAP Order Number 200197646-0680.

In summary the joint frequency distributions for 2008 are similar to recent years. During 2008 there was a slight shift towards more unstable and correspondingly less neutral hours than in recent years. This was probably caused by a combination of normal year-to-year variation and a change in the nature of the ground around the tower from weeds and grass in previous years to just dirt in 2008. It should be returned to a more natural state in 2009.fMet-e6`or66oi6Al,'Mfa Fr~6ez-mtd The Meteorological Data Recovery for the calendar year met the minimum requirement of at-least 90% (as specified in Section 5 of Revision 1 to Regulatory Guide 1.23, Meteorological Monitoring Programs for Nuclear Power Plants).

Radiation Fundamentals Radiation is the conveyance of energy through space. For example, heat emanating from a stove is a form of radiation, as are light rays, microwaves, and radio waves'. Ali~matter consists of atoms, which are comprised of positively charged particles (protons), negatively charged particles (electrons), and non-chargedlneutral particles (neutrons).

The relatively large particles (protons and neutrons) are packed tightly together in a cluster at the center of the atom called the nucleus, while the smaller particles (electrons) orbit around the nucleus. In an electrically neutral atom, the negative charges of the electrons are balanced by the positive charges of the protons. Due to their dissimilar charges, the protons and electrons have a strong attraction for each other. This holds the atom together.

Other attractive forces between the protons and neutrons keep the densely packed protons from repelling each other, and prevent the nucleus from breaking apart.B. Radiation and Radioactivity The following provides an alphabetical glossary of terms associated with radiation, radioactivity, and the radioactive decay process. The termis discussed include Alpha Particles, Beta Particles, Gamma Rays, Genetic Effects, Half-life, Ionization, Isotopes, Neutrons, Radiation, Radioactive Decay, Radionuclides and Somatic Effects.Alpha Particles:

Particulate and electromagnetic radiation each travel through matter differently because of their different properties.

Alpha particles contain , 2 protons and 2 neutrons, are relatively-large, and carry an electrical charge of +2. Alpha particles are ejected from the nucleus of a*radioactive atom at speeds ranging from 2,000 to 20,000 miles per second. However, due to its comparatively large size, an alpha particle usually does not travel very far before it loses most of its energy through collisions and interactions with other atoms. As a result, a sheet of paper or a few centimeters of air can easily stop alpha particles.

Beta Particles:

Beta particles are very small, and comparatively fast particles, traveling at speeds near the 'Speed of light (186,000 miles per second). Beta, particles have an electrical charge of either +1 or -1. Because they are so small and have a low charge, they do not collide and interact as often as alpha particles, so they can travel farther. Beta particles can usually, travel through several meters, of air, but may be stopped by a thin piece of metal or wood.Gamma Rays: Gamma rays are pure energy and travel at the speed of light. They have no measurable charge or mass, and generally travel much farther than alpha or beta particles before being absorbed.

After repeated interactions, the gamma ray loses its energy and vanishes.

The range: of a gamma ray in air varies, depending on the ray's energy and interactions.

Very high-energy gamma radiation can travel a considerable distance, where-as, low energy gamma radiation may travel only a few feet in air. Lead is used as shielding material for gamma radiation because of its density. Several inches of Lead or concrete may be needed to effectively shield gamma rays.Genetic Effects: The effects of ionizing radiation which are observed in the offspring of the exposed individual that could occur as a result of ionizing radiation interacting with the genes in the human cells.Half-life:

The length of time an atom remains radioactive is defined in terms of half-life, which is the amount of time required for a radioactive substance to lose half of its activity through the process of radioactive decay. Radionuclides that have infrequent emissions have a long half-life, where as, radionuclides that have more frequent emissions have a short half-life.

1-1I Beaver Valley Power Station RTh A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 1 -INTRODUCTION Ionization:

Through interactions with atoms, alpha, beta, and gamma radiation lose their energy.When these forms of radiation interact with any form of material, the energy they impart may cause atoms in that material to become ions, or charged particles.

Normally, an atom has the same number of protons as electrons, thus, the number of positive and negative charges cancel, in which the atom is, electrically neutral. When one or more electrons are removed, an ion is formed.Ionization is one of the processes that may result in damage to biological systems.Isotopes:

A group of identical atoms containing the same number of protons make up an element.In fact, the number of protons an atom contains determines its chemical identity.

For instance, all atoms with one proton are hydrogen atoms, and all atoms with eight protons are oxygen atoms.However, the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an element may vary. Atoms with the sameI number of protons but different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes.

Different isotopes of the same element have the same chemical properties, and many are stable or non-radioactive.

An unstable or radioactive isotope of an element is called a radioisotope, a radioactive atom, or aI radionuclide.

Radionuclides usually contain an excess amount of energy in the nucleus. The excess energy is usually due to a surplus or deficit in the number of neutrons in the nucleus. Radionuclides such as Uranium-238, Berylium-7 and Potassium-40 occur naturally.

Others are man-made, such as3 Iodine- 13 1, Cesium- 137, and Cobalt-60.

Neutrons:

Neutrons come from several sources, including the interactions of cosmic radiation with the earth's atmosphere and nuclear reactions within operating nuclear power reactors.

However, neutrons are not of envirounmental concern since the neutron source at nuclear power stations is sealed within the containment building.

Because neutrons have no charge, they are able to pass very close to the nuclei of the material.

through which they are traveling.

As a result, neutrons may beI captured by one of these nuclei or they may be deflected.

When deflected, the neutron loses some of its energy. After a series of these deflections, the neu 'tron has lost most of its energy. At this point, the neutron moves about as slowly as the atoms of the material through which it is traveling, and is called a thermal neutron. In comparison, fast neutrons are much more energetic than thermal neutrons and have greater potential for causing damage to the material through which they travel.Fast neutrons can have from 200 thousand to 200 million times the energy of thermal neutrons.Neutron shielding is designed to slow fast neutrons and absorb thermal neutrons.

Neutron shielding materials commonly used to slow neutrons down are water or polyethylene.

The shield is then completed with a material such as Cadmium, to absorb the now thermal neutrons.

Concrete is also used to form an effective neutron shield because- it contains water molecules, and can be easilyI Radiation:

This is the conveyance of energy through space. For instance, heat emanating from a stove is a form of radiation, as are light rays, microwaves, and radio waves. Ionizing radiation isI another type of radiation and has similar properties to those of the examples listed above. Ionizing radiation consists of both electromagnetic radiation and particulate radiation.

Electromagnetic radiation is energy with no measurable mass that travels with a wave-like motion through space.Included in this category are gamma rays and X-rays. Particulate radiation consists of tiny, fast moving particles which, if unhindered, travel in a straight line through space. The three types of particulate radiation of concern to us are alpha particles, which are made up of 2 protons and 2U neutrons; beta particles, which are essentially free electrons; and neutrons.

The properties of these types of radiation will be described more fully in the Range and Shielding section.1-2I Beaver Valley Power Station 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report RTL A9.690E Enclosure 3 SECTION 1 -INTRODUCTION Radioactive Decay: Radioactive atoms, over time, will reach a stable,.non-radioactive state through a process known as radioactive decay, which is the release of energy from an atom through the emission of ionizing radiation.

Radioactive atoms may decay directly to a stable state or may go through .a series of decay stages, called a radioactive decay series, andproduce several daughter products that eventually result in a stable atom. The loss of energy through radioactive decay may transform the atom into a chemically different element. For example, when Uranium-238 decays, it emits an alpha particle and, as a result, the atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons.

Since the number of protons in the nucleus Of an atom determines its chemical identity, then. when the Uranium-238 atom loses the 2 protons and-2 neutrons, it is transformed into an atom of Thoriumn-234.

Thorium-234 is one of the 14 successive daughter products of Uranium-238.

Radon is another daughter product, and the decay series ends with stable Lead-206.

The following example is part of a known.radioactive decay series, called the Uranium series, which begins with Uranium-238 and. ends with Lead-206.

Somatic Effects: The effects of ionizing radiation which develop in the directly exposed individual, including an unborn child. Somatic effects can be divided further into acute and chronic effects.Acute effects develop shortly after exposure to large amount of radiation.

Chronic effects are a result of exposure to radiation over an extended period of time.1-3 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E I 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 1- INTRODUCTION

]C. Units of Measurement Activity (Curie): This relates the number of atoms.in a sample that disintegrate (decay) per unit of time. Each time an atom disintegrates, radiation is emitted. The curie (Ci) is the unit used to describe the activity of a material and indicates the rate at which the atoms 'of a radioactive substance are decaying:

One curie indicates the disintegration of 37 billion atoms per second. A curie is a unit of activity, not a quantity of material.

Thus, the amount of material required to produce one curie varies. A smaller unit of the curie is used when discussing the low concentrations I of radioactivity detected in environmental samples. For instance, the picocurie (pCi) represents one trillionth of a' curie.Absorbed Dose (rad): This is a term used to describe the radiation energy absorbed by any material I exposed to ionizing radiation, and can be used for both particulate and electromagnetic radiation.

The rad is the unit used to measure the absorbed dose. It is defined as the energy of ionizing radiation deposited per. gram of absorbing material (1 rad = 100 erg/gm). The rate of absorbed dose I is usually given in rad/hr. The rad is not used to quantify biological damage caused by ionizing radiation.

Dose Equivalent (rem): Biological damage due to alpha, beta, gamma and neutron radiation may result from ionizing radiation.

Some types of radiation, especially alpha particles which cause dense local ionization, can result in up to 20 times the amount of biological damage for the same energy imparted as do gamma or X-rays. Therefore, a quality factor must be applied to account for the different ionizing capabilities of various types of ionizing radiation.

When the quality factor is multiplied by the absorbed dose (Rad), the result is the dose equivalent, which is an estimate of the possible biological damage resulting from exposure to a particular type of ionizing radiation.

The dose equivalent is measured in rem. An example of this conversion from absorbed dose (rad) to dose equivalent (rem) uses the quality factor for alpha radiation, which is equal to 20. Thus, 1 Rad of alpha radiation-20 rem. Since beta and gamma radiation each have a quality factor of 1, then 1I Rad of either beta or gamma radiation

= 1 rem. Neutrons have a quality factor ranging from 2 to 10.In terms of radiation, the rem is a relatively large unit. Therefore, a smaller unit, the millirem, is often used, where as, one millirem (mrem) is equal to 1/1000 of a rem.'D. Lower Limit of Detection The Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) for environmental samples is. a calculated value that represents an a-priori (before-the-fact) limit for the smallest concentration (i.e.; pCi per unit mass or volume) I of radioactive material in a sample that will be detected with 95% probability, and with 5%probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a real signal. A calculated LLD must consider such analytical variables as standard deviation of the background counting rate, the counting efficiency, the sample size, the fractional radiochemical yield, the radioactive decay constant, and the elapsed time between sample collection and time of counting.1 1-4 1 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 1 -INTRODUCTION E. Scope and Objectives of the REMP Program The environmental program consists of environmental monitoring for radioactivity in the vicinity of BVPS. Environmental sampling and analyses include air, water, milk, vegetation, river sediments, fish, and ambient radiation levels in areas surrounding the site. The results of these media are assessed to determine impacts of the plant operation on the environment.

The Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report (AREOR) for BVPS summarizes the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) conducted by the FirstEnergy Nuclear Operating Company during the report period.F. Description of the Beaver Valley Site BVPS is located on the south bank of the Ohio River in the Borough of Shippingport, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, on a 453 acre tract of land. The site is approximately one mile from Midland, Pennsylvania; five miles from East Liverpool, Ohio; and twenty-five miles from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.-

Figure 1-1 shows the site location in relation to the principal population centers.Population density in the immediate vicinity of the site is relatively low. The population within a five mile radius of the plant is approximately 15,493 and the only' area within the radius of concentrated population is the Borough of Midland, Pennsylvania, with a population of approximately 3,321.The site lies in a valley along the Ohio River. It extends from the river (elevation 665 feet above sea level) to a ridge along the border south of the Beaver Valley Power Station at an elevation of 1,078 feet. Plant grade level is approximately 735 feet above sea level.BVPS is on the Ohio River at river mile 34.8, at a location on the New Cumberland Pool that is 3.3.river miles downstream from Montgomery Lock and Dam, and 19.4 miles upstream from New Cumberland Lock and Dam. The Pennsylvania-Ohio-West Virginia border is located 5.2 river miles downstream from the site. The river flow is regulated by a series of dams and reservoirs on the Beaver, Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio Rivers and their tributaries.

During the report period, the Ohio River flow (as obtained from the Corps of Engineers

-Water Resources Engineering) at the Wheeling Dam ranged from 8,800 cubic feet per second (minimum monthly average) to 107,400 cubic feet per second (maximum monthly average).

The mean flow during the report period was 45,342 cubic feet per second.Water temperature of the Ohio River typically varies from 340 Fahrenheit to 75' Fahrenheit.

The minimum temperatures occur in January and/or February and maximum temperatures in July and/or August. Water quality in the Ohio River at the site location is affected primarily by the water quality of the Allegheny, Monongahela and Beaver rivers.The climate of the area may be classified as humid continental.

The predominant wind direction is typically from the southwest in summer and from the west southwest in winter. The National Climate Data Center (http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/research/cag3/v4.html) indicates the following data, for the Pittsburgh, PA area:* The total annual precipitation during the report period was 39.248 inches The average mean temperature during the report period was 50.90 Fahrenheit 1-5 Beaver Valley Power Station 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report RTL A9.690E Enclosure 3 SECTION 1 -INTRODUCTION The basic features of the Beaver Valley Power Station Units 1 and 2 are tabulated below: Beaver Valley Unit 1 2900 -megawatts thermal Beaver Valley Unit 2 2900 -megawatts thermal Licensed Power Level Type of Power No. of Reactor Coolant Loops No. of Steam Generators

& Type Steam Used by Main Turbine PWR PWR 3 3 3 -Vertical Saturated 3 -Vertical.Saturated The BVPS units utilize two separate systems (primary and secondary) for transferring heat from the source (the reactor) to the receiving component (turbine-generator).

Because the-two systems. are isolated from each other, primary and secondary waters do not mix; therefore, radioactivity in the primary system water is normally isolated from the secondary system. Reactor coolant in the primary system is pumped through the reactor core and steam generators by means of reactor coolant pumps. Heat is given up from the primary system to the secondary system in the steam generators, where steam is formed and delivered to the main unit turbine, which drives the electrical generator.

The steam is condensed after passing through the turbine, and returned to the steam generators tobegin another steam/water cycle.I I I I I I U I I I I I I I I I I I I 1-6 Beaver Valley Power Station 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report SECTION 1 -INTRODUCTION Figure 1-1 Geographical Map and Principal Communities in 50-mile Radius of the Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E Enclosure 3 0 20 40 MILES 1-7 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM A.

Comparisons of pre-operational data with operational data indicate the ranges of values are generally in good agreement for both periods of time.Activity detected was attributed to naturally occurring radionuclides, BVPS effluents, previous nuclear weapons tests or to the normal statistical fluctuation for activities near the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD).The conclusion from all program data is that the operation of BVPS has resulted in no significant changes to the environment.

3. Quality Control Program The Quality Control Program implemented by BVPS to assure reliable performance by the contractor and the supporting QC data are presented and discussed in Section 4 of this report.4. Program Changes There were no changes of significance to the sampling program during the report period.2-5 Beaver Valley Power Station 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM Table 2-2 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM

Air Monitoring

1. Characterization of Air and Meteorology The air in the vicinity of the site contains pollutants typical for an industrial area. Air flow is generally from the southwest in summer and from:the northwest in the winter.2. Air Sampling Program and Analytical Techniques

a. Program The air is sampled for gaseous radioiodine and radioactive particulates at each of ten (10)offsite air sampling stations.

The locations of these stations are listed in Table 2-1 and shown on a map in Figure 2-1.Samples are collected at each of these stations by continuously drawing two cubic feet per minute of atmosphere air through a glass fiber filter paper and a charcoal cartridge.

The glass fiber filter paper is used for collection of airborne particulates, while the charcoal cartridge is used for collection of radioiodine.

Samples are collected on a weekly basis.The charcoal cartridge is used in the weekly analysis of airborne Iodine-131.

The glass fiber filter papers are analyzed each week for gross beta, then composited by station each quarter for gamma spectrometry analysis.

In order to reduce interference from short-lived naturally occurring radioactivity (e.g.; radon and thorium), the glass fiber filter papers are decayed prior to performing beta analysis in a low background counting system.b. Procedures Gross Beta Analysis of Filter Paper: Analysis is performed by placing the glass fiber filter paper from the weekly air sample in a 2 inch planchet and analyzing it in a low background, gas flow proportional counter.Gamma Emitter Analysis of Filter Paper: Analysis is performed by stacking all of the glass fiber filter papers collected from each monitoring station 'during the quarter and scanning this composite on a high resolution germanium gamma spectrometer.

Iodine-131 Analysis of Charcoal Cartridge:

Analysis is performed by a gamma scan of each charcoal cartridge.

2-23 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM i 3. Results and Conclusions A summary of data is presented in Table 2-2.a. AirborneRadioactive Particulates Gross Beta: A total of five-hundred-ten (510) weekly samples from ten (10) locations were analyzed for gross beta. Results were comparable to previous years. Figure 2-2 indicates the i weekly average concentration of gross beta in air particulates.

During the period 05/19/08 -05/27/08, the Gross Beta Results were unusually low.Specifically, the Gross Beta results for the ten (10) air particulate sample stations ranged from i 0.0 11 -0.014 pCi/cubic meter, where as the cumulative average ranged from 0.022 to 0.025 pCi/cubic meter. As noted, this condition existed at all nine (9) indicator locations and at the 3 one (1) control location.

This issue was discussed with the REMP Administrators at the other two FENOC sites (i.e.; Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant and the Perry Nuclear Power Plant), and they alsonoted similar decreases in Gross Beta results during this period. There is no consequence to unusually low sample results at the indicator and control locations.

The cause I is most likely due to cosmic phenomenon.

This issue is documented in SAP Order 200197646-0640.

I During the period 11/02/08 -11/10/08, the Gross Beta Results were unusually high.Specifically, the Gross Beta results for all ten (10) air particulate sample stations ranged from 0.034 -0.051 pCi/cubic meter, where as the cumulative average ranged from 0.024 to 0.026 I pCi/cubic meter. As noted, this condition existed at all nine (9) indicator locations and at the one (1) control location.

This issue was discussed with the REMP Administrators at the other two FENOC sites (i.e.; Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Plant and the Perry Nuclear Power Plant), I and they also noted similar increases in Gross Beta results during this period. There is no consequence to unusually high sample results at the indicator and control locations.

The cause is most likely due to cosmic phenomenon.

This issue is documented in SAP Order i 200197646-0640.

Gamma Spectrometry:

The weekly air particulate samples were composited into forty (40) 3 quarterly samples which were analyzed by gamma spectrometry.

Naturally occurring Beryllium-7 was identified in thirty-six of thirty-six (36 of 36) indicator samples, and four of four (4 of 4) control samples. No other radionuclides were detected.

A summary of the analysis results during the report period are listed in Table 2-2. A trend graph of analyses (including the pre-operational period through the report period) is shown on Figure 2-2.Deviations from Required Sampling and Analysis Schedule:

There were some deviations from I the required airborne particulate sampling and analysis schedule during the report period.Specifically, during the sampling period of 02/25/08 -03/03/08, the Air Particulate and Iodine Sampling Station at the Shippingport, PA Cooks Ferry Substation (Site No. 30, 0.43 miles I ENE) was interrupted for 76 hours8.796296e-4 days 0.0211 hours 1.256614e-4 weeks 2.8918e-5 months due to an undeterminable power loss. During the sampling period of 03/24/08 -03/31/08, the Air Particulate and Iodine Sampling Station at East Liverpool, OH Water Department (Site No. 47, 4.88 miles WNW) was interrupted for 103 U hours due to shattered vanes in the sample pump. During the sampling periods of 06/02/08 -06/09/08, 06/16/08 -06/23/08, and 06/30/08 -07/05/08, the Air Particulate and Iodine Sampling Station at Hookstown, PA (Site No. 13, 1.49 miles SW) was interrupted for 23 I hours, 58 hours6.712963e-4 days 0.0161 hours 9.589947e-5 weeks 2.2069e-5 months and 45 hours5.208333e-4 days 0.0125 hours 7.440476e-5 weeks 1.71225e-5 months , respectively due to power losses from blown fuses. After each 2-24 i Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM of the power losses, the fuses were replaced and the sample pumps were successfully restarted.

The power loss condition was resolved on 07/07/08 by removing an extension cord not associated with BVPS-REMP air sampling equipment.

During the sampling period of 09/02/08 -09/08/08, the Air Particulate and Iodine Sampling Station at the Shippingport, PA Cooks Ferry Substation (Site No. 30, 0.43 miles ENE) was interrupted for 114 hours0.00132 days 0.0317 hours 1.884921e-4 weeks 4.3377e-5 months due to shattered vanes in the sample pump. All Air Particulate and Iodine Samples obtained for the sampling period of 09/02/08 -09/08/08 were discarded by the shipper, because they were damaged during shipment.

Although these are not missed samples (i.e., the samples were obtained), no sample analyses are available for this sample period. During the sampling periods 09/08/08 -09/15/08, and 09/15/08 -09/22/08, the nine (9) Air Particulate and Iodine Sampling Stations (Indicator Locations) were interrupted for various periods of time. The interruptions were all related to power outages caused by hurricane Ike thunderstorms that entered the area on 09/14/08.

During this period, sampling was interrupted for periods from 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months to 72 hours8.333333e-4 days 0.02 hours 1.190476e-4 weeks 2.7396e-5 months . During the sampling period of 11/17/08 -11/24/08, the Air Particulate and Iodine Sampling Station at the Midland, PA North Substation (Site No. 32, 0.75 miles NW) was interrupted for 93 hours0.00108 days 0.0258 hours 1.537698e-4 weeks 3.53865e-5 months due to shattered vanes in the sample pump. SINCE BVPS uses ten (10) airborne particulate sample stations versus five (5) required by the ODCM, THEN there was no consequence to interruption of sample collection during these periods.This condition is documented in SAP order 200197646-0490.

Summary: Based on the analytical results, the operation of BVPS did not contribute any measurable increase in air particulate radioactivity during the report period.b. Airborne Radioiodine Iodine-131:

A total of five-hundred-ten (510) weekly charcoal filter samples were analyzed for Iodine-131.

No detectable .concentrations were present at any locations.

Deviations from Required Sampling and Analysis Schedule:

The deviations are the same as described above for airborne particulates.

Summary: Based on analytical results, the operation of BVPS did not contribute any measurable increase in airborne radioiodine during the report period.2-25 Beaver Valley Power Station 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report RTL A9.690E Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM Figure 2-1 Environmental Monitoring Locations

Monitoring of Shoreline Stream Sediment and Soil 1. Characterization of Shoreline Stream Sediment and Soil The stream sediment (river bottoms) consists largely of sand and silt. Soil samples may vary from sand and silt to a heavy clay with variable amounts of organic material.2. Sampling Program and Analytical Techniques I a. Program Shoreline stream sediment were collected semi-annually above the Montgomery Dam, in I the vicinity of the BVPS outfall structure, and above the New Cumberland Dam. A Ponar or Eckman dredge is used to collect the sample. The sampling locations are also listed in Table 2-1 and are shown in Figure 2-3.Although not required by the ODCM, soil samples are collected every three years. They were collected at each of ten (10) locations during 2006 and are not due to be collected again until 2009. At each location, twelve (12) core samples (3" diameter by 2" deep) are gathered at prescribed points on a 10 foot radius circle. Each location is permanently' marked with reference pins. Each set of samples is systematically selected by moving along the radius in such a manner as to assure representative undisturbed samples.Sampling locations are listed in Table 2-1 and are shown in Figure 2-3.Shoreline stream sediment and soil. are analyzed for gamma-emitting radionuclides.

b. Analytical Procedures I Gamma Emitter Analysis of Stream Sediment:

Analysis is performed in a 300 ml plastic bottle, which is analyzed by gamma spectrometry.

Results and Conclusions A summary of the analysis results during the report period are listed in Table 2-2. A trend graph of analyses (including the pre-operational period through the report period) is shown on Figure 2-4 and Figure 2-5.a. Shoreline Stream Sediment Gamma Spectrometry:

A total of six (6) sediment samples were analyzed by gamma spectrometry during the report period. Naturally occurring Potassium-40, Thalium-208, Lead-212, Lead-214, Bismuth-214, Radium-226 and Actinum-228, were detected in four of four (4 of 4) indicator samples and two of two (2 of 2) control samples.Cesium-137:

This radionuclide was identified in two of four (2 of 4) indicator samples and two of two (2 of 2) control samples. The results were similar to previous years (current years range = 0.06 to 0.13 pico Curie / gram), and less than the pre-operational level of 0.4 pico Curie / gram. Also, SINCE Cesium-137 was identified at the control location (upstream), THEN it was not due to plant effluent releases and is most likely residual contamination due from previous nuclear weapons tests.Cobalt-58:

Radionuclide Cobalt-58 was identified in two of four (2 of 4) indicator samples and zero of two (0 of 2) control samples. The samples that indicated Cobalt-58 were obtained at the shore line of the main outfall facility.

The results were similar to previous years (current years range = 0.08 to 0.08 pico Curie / gram), and this data is currently less than the pre-operational level of 0.098 pico Curie / gram.Cobalt-60:

Radionuclide Cobalt-60 was identified in two of four (2 of 4) indicator samples and zero of two (0 of 2) control samples. The samples that indicated Cobalt-60 were obtained at the shore line of the main outfall facility.

The results were similar to previous years (current years range = 0.11 to 0.19 pico Curie / gram), and this data is currently less than the pre-operational level of 0.4 pico Curie / gram Deviations from Required Sampling and Analysis Schedule:

There were no deviations from the required sediment sampling and analysis schedule during the report period.Summary: The identification of Cobalt-58 and Cobalt-60 in the shoreline stream sediment near the main outfall facility is not unusual, because the plant discharges these radionuclides in liquid effluent releases.

The analyses are consistent with discharge data of authorized liquid effluent releases, and all liquid effluent releases during the report period did not exceed the release limits set forth in the ODCM.2-29 Beaver Valley Power Station 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report RTL A9.690E Enclosure 3 I I SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM b.

Sampling Program and Analytical Techniques

a. Program Feedstuff:

Although not required by the ODCM, representative samples of Feedstuff (cattle feed) are collected monthly from the nearest dairy farm (Searight Dairy). See Figure 2-6. Each sample is analyzed by gamma spectrometry.

Foodcrops (leafy vegetables):

Foodcrops are collected at garden locations during the growing season. Leafy vegetables, (e.g.; cabbage) are obtained from Shippingport, Georgetown, and Industry, Pennsylvania.

Samples are also obtained from the control location in'Weirton, West Virginia.

All samples are analyzed for gamma emitters by gamma spectrometry.

Samples are also analyzed by radiochemical analysis for Iodine-131.

b. Procedures Gamma Emitter Analysis of Foodcrops:

Analysis is performed by scanning a dried, homogenized sample with a gamma spectrometry system. A high resolution germanium detector is utilized with this system. Samples of feedstuff and foodcrops are loaded into tare weight 300 or 150 ml plastic bottles or 1-liter Marinelli containers, weighed and the net weight of the sample is determined prior to scanning for gamma emitters.Gamma Emitter Analysis of Feedstuff:

Samples of feedstuff and foodcrops are loaded into tare weight 300 or 150 ml plastic bottles or I-liter Marinelli containers, weighed and the net weight of the sample is determined prior to scanning for gamma emitters.Iodine-131 Analysis of Foodcrops:

Analysis is performed by radiochemistry.

A stable iodide carrier is added to a chopped sample, which is then leached with a sodium'hydroxide solution, evaporated to dryness and fused in amuffle furnace. The melt is dissolved in 'Water, filtered and treated with sodium hypochlorite.

The iodate is then reduced to iodine with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and is extracted into toluene. It is then back-extracted as iodide into sodium bisulfite solution and is precipitated as palladium iodide. The precipitate is weighed for chemical yield and is mounted on a nylon planchet for low level beta counting.2-35 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E I 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM I 3.

Monitoring of Local Cow and Goat Milk 1. Description

-Milch Animal Locations Samples of fresh milk are obtained from milch animals at locations and frequencies noted in Table 2-1. The milk is analyzed for its radioiodine content, gamma emitters, Strontium-89 and Strontium-90.

Detailed field surveys are performed during the grazing season to locate and enumerate milch animals within a five (5) mile radius of the site. Survey data for the most recent survey conducted is shown in Section 3, Land Use Census.2. Sampling Program and Analytical Techniques

a. Program Cow milk was collected from the two (2) reference dairy farms within a 10-mile radius of the BVPS. These milk samples were obtained at the Searight Dairy Farm (2.10 miles SSW) and the Brunton Dairy Farm (6.16 miles SE).Cow milk and goat milk were also collected from two (2) other dairy farms within a 10-mile radius of the BVPS site. The goat milk samples obtained at the Collins Dairy Farm (3.55 miles SE) and the cow milk samples obtainedat the Halstead Dairy Farm (5.08 miles SSW) were selected based on milch animal surveys and evaluations of meteorological data (i.e.; deposition parameters).

They were added to the sampling program to ensure the highest potential milk pathway for radioiodine uptake is evaluated.

The dairies are subject to change based upon availability of milk or when more recent data (milch animal census, and/or change in meteorological conditions) indicate other locations are more appropriate.

Cow milk was also collected from the one (1) control location dairy farm outside of the 10-mile radius. These milk samples were obtained at the Windsheimer Dairy Farm (10.48 miles SSW).The cow milk sample from the Searight Dairy Farm (2.10 miles SSW) is collected and analyzed weekly for Iodine-131 using a method that ensures a high sensitivity.

Samples from each ofthe other dairies are collected monthly when cows are indoors and bi-weekly when cows are grazing. The monthly and/or. bi-weekly sample is analyzed for principle gamma emitters (including Cesium-137 by high resolution germanium gamma spectrometry), and Iodine-131 high sensitivity analysis.

Although not required by the ODCM,'the monthly and/or bi-weekly sample is also analyzed for Strontium-89, Strontium-90.

During the 2008 Land Use Census, it was determined that a new heard of doe goats is located at the Sullivan Farm (4.285 miles ESE), and the Ferry Farm (3.32 miles SE) has again obtained a doe goat. No goat milk samples were available from either of these locations during 2008, because, the goats were already dry at time of the Land Use Census.However, both locations may provide goat milk samples during 2009.2-39 Beaver Valley Power Station 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM The location of each is shown in Figure 2-8 and described below.RTL A9.690E Enclosure 3 Approximate Distance and Direction Collection Number of Animals from Midpoint between Period being Milked' Unit 1 and Unit 2 Reactor 25 Searight Dairy 38 Cows 2.10 miles SSW January thru 948 McCleary Road December Hookstown, PA 27a Brunton Dairy 108 Cows 6.16 miles SE January thru 3681 Ridge Road December Aliquippa, PA 69* Collins Dairy 1 Goats 3.55 miles SE March thru 289 Calhoun Road August Aliquippa, PA 96 Windsheimer Dairy 75 Cows 10.48 miles SSW January thru RD#11 December Burgettstown, PA Halstead Dairy 60 Cows 5.08 miles SSW, January thru 113* 104 Tellish Drive December Hookstown, PA Ferry Farm 1 Goat 3.32 miles SE Not Applicable:

Procedure Iodine-131 Analysis of Milk: The milk samples are chemically prepared, and then analyzed with a low-level beta counting system.Gamma Emitter, Analysis of Milk: This is determined by gamma spectrometry analysis of a 1 liter Marinelli container of milk.Strontium-90 Analysis of Milk: Although not required by the ODCM, the milk samples are prepared by adding a stable strontium carrier and evaporating to dryness, then ashing in a muffle furnace, followed by precipitating phosphates.

Strontium is purified in all samples by the Argonne method using 3 grams of extraction material in a chromatographic column.Stable yttrium carrier is added and the sample is allowed to stand for a minimum of 5 days for the in-growth of Yttrium-90 (Y-90). Yttrium is then precipitated as hydroxide dissolved and re-precipitated as oxalate. The yttrium oxalate is mounted on a nylon planchetand is counted in a low-level beta counter to infer Strontium-90 activity.Strontium-89 Analysis of Milk: Although not required by the ODCM, the Strontium-89' activity is determined by precipitating strontium carbonate (SrCO 3) from the sample after yttrium separation.

This precipitate is mounted on~a nylon planchet and is covered with an 80 mg/cm 2 aluminum absorber for low level beta counting.

Chemical yields of strontium and yttrium are determined by gravimetric means.3. Results and Conclusions A summary of the analysis results during the report period are listed in Table 2-2. A trend graph of Iodine-131 and Strontium-90 analyses (including the pre-operational period through the report period) is shown on Figure 2-9.a. Strontium-89:

Although not required by the ODCM, a total of ninety-two (92) milk samples were analyzed for Strontium-89 during the report period. Strontium-89 was not detected in any of the seventy-two (72) indicator samples, nor was it detected in any of the twenty (20) control samples.b. Strontium-90:

Although not required by the ODCM, a total of ninety-two (92) milk samples were analyzed for Strontium-90 during the report period. Strontium-90 was detected in sixty-six of seventy-two (66 of 72) indicator samples and nineteen of twenty (19 of 20) control samples. The levels detected were attributable to previous nuclear weapons tests and are within the normally expected range.c. Gamma Spectrometry:

A total of ninety-two (92) milk samples were analyzed by gamma spectrometry during the report period. Naturally occurring Potassium-40 was present in seventy-two of seventy-two (72 of 72) indicator samples and twenty of twenty (20 of 20)control samples. No other gamma-emitting radionuclides were identified during analysis.2-41 I Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM d. Iodine-13 1: A total of one hundred twenty-four (124) milk samples were analyzed for I Iodine-131 during the report period. Iodine-131 was not detected in any of the one hundred four (104) indicator samples, nor was it detected in any of the twenty (20) control samples. All analyses were less than the 0.5 pico Curie / liter LLD value.e. Deviations from Required Sampling and Analysis:

The Bi-weekly Doe Goat milk sampling at the only Doe Goat Location (Site No. 69, 3.547 miles SE), as identified in the Land Use Census, were interrupted during 2008. Specifically, the Doe Goats at this location ceased production of milk in September 2008. Although the Doe Goats could not be sampled during that period, the minimum Bi-weekly milk sampling requirements of ODCM procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03, Attachment Q, Table 3.12-1 were still met. Specifically, SINCE only 4 Bi-Weekly Dairy Cow and/or Doe Goat locations are required to be sampled, THEN the minimum requirement was met with 4 Dairy Cow milk samples.Also, two (2) of the four (4) Bi-weekly milk samples obtained on 09/08/08 were discarded by the shipper, because they were damaged during shipment.

Although the samples were obtained, no sample analyses for the Brunton Dairy (Site No. 27a, 6.16 miles SE) and the Windsheimer Dairy (Site No. 96, 10.48 miles SSW) were available for this Bi-weekly.

Environmental Radiation Monitoring I. Description of Regional Background Radiation and Sources Historical information for regional background was obtained from Reuter-Stokes instruments that were previously located within a five (5) mile radius of the BVPS site. Data is no longer available from these instruments, but historical data indicated that the background exposure rates ranged from 6 jtR/hr to 12 gR/hr.The sources of background radiation are affected by the terrain in the vicinity of BVPS, where as, the local hills (i.e., with altitude variations of 300-400 feet) and densely wooded areas contribute to differences in.background radiation level. Other sources (e.g., Radon) are affected by the geological features of the region, which are characterized by nearly flat-laying sedimentary beds of the Pennsylvania Age. For information, the local sedimentary beds of limestone alternate with sandstone and shale with abundant interbedded coal layers. Pleistocene glacial deposits partially cover the older sedimentary deposits in the northwest.

Most of the region is underlain by shale, sandstone, and some coal beds of the Conemaugh Formation.

Outcrops of sandstone, shale, and limestone of the Allegheny Formation exist within the Ohio River Valley and along major tributary streams.2. Locations and Analytical Procedures Ambient external radiation levels around the site were measured using thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs).During the report period, there were a total of sixty-four (64) environmental TLD locations.

This is comprised of forty-four (44) offsite locations, along with twenty (20) fence perimeter locations.

The offsite TLD locations are plotted on Figurem2-10, but the fence perimeter locations are not plotted due to the large scale of the figure.The TLDs were annealed at the Contractor Central Laboratory shortly before placing the TLDs in their field locations.

The radiation dose accumulated in-transit between the Central Laboratory, the field location, and the Central Laboratory was corrected by transit controls maintained in lead shields at both the Central Laboratory and the field office. All dosimeters were exposed in the field for a calendar quarter, in a specific holder that contains two (2) TLDs at each location.3. Results and Conclusions A summary of the TLD results during the report period are listed in Table 2-2. A trend graph of analyses (including the pre-operational period through the report period) is shown on Figure 2-11.TLD Analysis:

During the report period, the average quarterly external exposure rate (as measured from TLD) was 18.4 mR at the sixty-four (64) indicator locations, and 20.5 mR at the Control location.

This external exposure rate is comparable to previous years. As expected, there was some variation in external exposure rate among locations and seasons.2-45 I Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM Adjustments to TLD Placement:

In regards to operating experience at Clinton Power Station I (OE26003), BVPS TLD sites were evaluated during 2008 against criteria established in ANSI N545-1975 (Performance, Testing, and Procedural Specifications for Thermoluminescence Dosimetry).

As a result of this evaluation, several of the TLD sites were lowered and/or relocated to adjacent/nearby sites. For TLD sites that were relocated; (1) no changes were necessary to the distances specified in this and previous reports, and (2) no changes were necessary to the distances specified in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. In summary, the I reported exposure results of all previous BVPS TLD data for the sixty-four (64) TLD sites are considered valid and do not require adjustment.

Results of the evaluation were documented in SAP Order 200197646-0610 and letter NPD3NRE:0538.

TLD Trend Evaluation:

As discussed inithe 2007 report, the trends of the environmental TLD data during the period 2001 thru 2007 showed a small increase for the indicator locations, and n a step (level) increase for the Control location.

The increase was traced to a change made in late 2001 with regards to the environmental TLD field holders, which resulted in an increased sensitivity to natural background beta radiation.

In summary, the increase in TLD data was consistent at all locations (including the control location), was most likely due to increased sensitivity to natural background beta radiation, and was not a consequence of BVPS gaseous effluent releases.

There were no deviations from the required sampling schedule (i.e.; TLD change out frequency) and analysis schedule (i.e.; TLD processing frequency) during the report period.Summary: The quarterly TLD external exposure rates are comparable to those of previous years, except for the increase described above in the TLD Trend Evaluation.

There was no I evidence of anomalies that could be attributed to the operation of BVPS. It should also be noted that the average external exposure rate at the indicator locations was less than average external exposure rate at the Control location.

Based on all the analytical results and the I comparison to pre-operational levels, the operation of BVPS did not contribute any measurable increase in external exposure in the vicinity of the site during the report period: The TLD exposure rates also confirm that changes from natural radiation levels, if any, are negligible.

Monitoring of Surface Water, Drinking Water, Groundwater and Precipitation

1. Description of Water Sources The Ohio River is the main body of water in the area. It is the main surface water supply for generation of drinking water in the area. The Beaver Valley Power Station obtains water from the Ohio River for plant make-up water and discharges water to the Ohio River via NPDES discharge points (e.g. cooling tower blowdown, liquid effluent releases, etc).The Ohio River is the main surface water supply source for towns, municipalities and industries both upstream and downstream of the BVPS site. The nearest user of the Ohio River as a potable water source is Midland Borough Municipal Water Authority.

The intake of the treatment plant is approximately

1.5 miles

downstream and on the opposite side of the river.The next downstream user is East Liverpool, Ohio which is approximately 6 miles downstream.

The heavy industries in Midland, as' well as others downstream, also use river water for cooling purposes.-

Groundwater occurs in large volumes in the gravel terraces which lie along the river, and diminishes considerably in the bedrock underlying the site. Normal well yields in the bedrock are less than 10 gallons per minute (gpm) with occasional wells yielding up to 60 gpm.In general, the BVPS site experiences cool winters and moderately warm summers with ample annual precipitation evenly distributed throughout the year. The National Climate Data Center (http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/research/cag3/v4.html) indicates the total annual'precipitation during the report period for the Pittsburgh, PA area was 39.24 inches.2-53 I Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM 2. Sampling and Analytical Techniques I a. Surface (Raw River) Water i The sampling program of river water includes three (3) sampling points along the Ohio River.Raw water samples are collected daily at the East Liverpool (Ohio) Water Treatment Plant, sample location 5, [River Mile 41.2], and the made into a weekly composite sample. One automatic river water sampler is located at the ATI-Allegheny Ludlam (formerly J&L 3 Steel) river water intake, sample location 2.1, [River Mile 36.2]. The automatic sampler takes a 20-40 ml sample every 15 minutes and samples are collected on a weekly basis.The weekly samples are then made into a monthly composite sample for each location.The monthly composite samples are analyzed for gamma emitters.

In addition, a quarterly composite sample is prepared for each sample point from the monthly composites.

Quarterly composites are analyzed for Hydrogen-3 (Tritium).

A weekly grab sample is taken upstream of the Montgomery Dam, sample location 49[River Mile 29.6]. This upstream sample at the Montgomery Dam is the control sample.The weekly grab samples upstream of the Montgomery Dam are analyzed for Iodine- 131.Weekly grab samples are then made into monthly composites are analyzed for gamma emitters.

Quarterly composite are prepared from each of the monthly composites.

The quarterly composites are analyzed for Tritium. I Locations of each sample point are shown in Figure 2-14.b.. Drinking Water (Public Supplies)Drinking water (i.e.; treated water) is collected at both the Midland, PA Water Treating Plant, sample location 4, and East Liverpool, OH Water Treating Plant, sample location 5. i An automatic sampler at each location collects 20-40 il every 20 minutes, which is then made into a weekly composite sample. The weekly composite sample from each location is analyzed for Iodine-131.

Monthly composites are made from the weekly samples and are analyzed by gamma spectrometry.

In addition, a quarterly composite sample is prepared for each sample point from the monthly composites.

Quarterly composites are analyzed for Tritium.A weekly grab sample is taken upstream of the Montgomery Dam, sample location 49[River Mile 29.6]. This upstream sample at the Montgomery Dam is the control sample.The weekly grab samples upstream of the Montgomery Dam are analyzed for Iodine-131.

Weekly grab samples are then made into monthly composites are analyzed by gamma spectrometry.

Quarterly composite are prepared from each of the monthly composites.

I The quarterly composites are analyzed for Tritium.Locations of each sample point are shown in Figure 2-14.2 2-54i Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM c. Groundwater Although not required by the ODCM, semi-annual grab samples were collected from three (3) locations within four (4) miles of the site (see Figure 2-14). These locations are: One (1) well in Shippingport, PA One (1) well in Hookstown, PA One (1) well in Georgetown, PA Each ground water sample is analyzed for tritium and is analyzed by gamma spectrometry.

d. Precipitation Although not required by the ODCM, precipitation is collected in Shippingport PA, East Liverpool OH, and Weirton WV. Precipitation, when available, is collected each week and then made into quarterly composite samples from the weekly samples. The quarterly composites are analyzed for Tritium and gamma emitters.

Locations of each of the sample points are shown in Figure 2-14.e. Procedures Gamma Analysis of Drinking Water and Surface Water: The analysis is performed on water samples by placing one liter of the sample into a Marinelli container and analyzing the sample on a high resolution germanium gamma spectrometry system. Although not required by the ODCM, this analysis is also performed on Groundwater and Precipitation.

Tritium Analysis of Drinking Water and Surface Water: The Tritium is determined in water samples by liquid scintillation analysis.

Although not required by the ODCM, this analysis is also performed on Surface Water, Groundwater and Precipitation.

Iodine-131 Analysis of Drinking Water: The sample is chemically prepared and analyzed with a low-level beta counting system. Although not required by the ODCM, this analysis is also performed on Surface Water.2-55 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM 3. Results and Conclusions S A summary of the analysis results of water samples (surface water, drinking water, ground water and precipitation) during the report period are listed in Table 2-2. A trend graph of I analyses (including the pre-operational period through the report period) is shown on Figures 2-15 through 2-18. 5 a. Surface Water Tritium: A total of twelve (12) surface water samples were analyzed for Tritium during the report period. Tritium was not detected in any of the eight (8) indicator samples, nor was I it detected in any of the four (4) control samples.Gamma Spectrometry:

A total of thirty-six (36) surface water samples were analyzed by I gamma spectrometry during the report period. Gamma emitting radionuclides were not detected in any of the twenty-four (24) indicator samples, nor were they detected in any of the twelve (12) control samples.Iodine-131:

Although not required by the ODCM, a total of fifty-two (52) surface water control samples were analyzed for Iodine-131 using radiochemical methods during the S report period. Iodinel31 was detected in forty-two of fifty-two (42 of 52) weekly control samples, of which three (3) analysis exceeded the reporting level of 2 pico Curie / liter.The results were similar to previous years, (current years range = 0.2 to 2.6 pico Curie / I liter). The positive results were detected at the Control location, which is five (5) miles upstream (not influenced by BVPS operation).

Identification of Iodine-131 during the report period was most likely due to medical diagnostic and treatment procedures from I upstream facilities.

This issue is documented in SAP Order 200197646-0440.

b. Drinking Water 5 Tritium: A total of twelve (12) drinking water samples were analyzed for Tritium during the report period. Tritium was not detected in any of the eight (8) indicator samples, nor was it detected in any of the four (4) control samples.Gamma Spectrometry:

A total of thirty-six (36) drinking water samples were analyzed by gamma spectrometry during the report period. Gamma emitting radionuclides were not I detected in any of the twenty-four (24) indicator samples, nor were they detected in any of the twelve (12) control samples.Iodine- 131: A total of one hundred-fifty-six (156) drinking water samples were analyzed for Iodine-131 (using radiochemical methods) during the report period. Iodine-131 was detected in fifty-eight of one hundred four (58 of 104) indicator samples and forty-two of I fifty-two (42 of 52) control samples. Some of the positive results at the downstream location exceeded the positive results from the upstream surface water Control location, but none of these analyses exceeded the reporting level of 2 pico Curie / liter. Also, I SINCE all of the liquid effluent discharges during the report period from BVPS did not have detectable Iodine-131, THEN the positive results were not influenced by BVPS operation, and were most likely due to medical diagnostic and treatment procedures from upstream facilities.

2-56 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM'c. Groundwater Tritium: Although not required by ODCM, a total of six (6) groundwater samples were analyzed for Tritium during the, report period. Tritium was not detected in any of the four (4) indicator samples, nor was it detected in any of the two (2) control samples.Gamma Spectrometry:

Although not required by ODCM, a total of six (6) groundwater samples were analyzed by gamma spectrometry during the report period. Gamma emitting radionuclides were not detected in any of the four (4) indicator samples, nor were they detected in any of the two (2) control samples.d. Precipitation Tritium: Although not required by ODCM, a total of twelve (12) precipitation samples were analyzed for Tritium during the report period. Tritium was detected in two of eight (2 of 8) indicator samples, but was not detected in any of the four (4) control samples.Some of the positive results at the Cooks Ferry Substation in Shippingport, PA (current range = 182 pico Curie / liter, with an LLD of 133 pico Curie / liter) and the East Liverpool Water Department, in East Liverpool, OH (current range = 790 pico Curie / liter, with an LLD of 143 pico Curie / liter), are greater than the pre-operational level of 300 pico Curie / liter, but is consistent with washout of tritium (from gaseous releases) during precipitation events. Specifically, identification of tritium at this location is not unusual, because the plant discharges tritium in gaseous waste effluents, and washout does occur during precipitation.

Also, the liquid tritium activity is less than the tritium discharge data of authorized gaseous effluent releases.

All. gaseous effluent releases during the report period did not exceed the release limits set forth in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual.Gamma Spectrometry:

Although not required by ODCM, a total of twelve (12)precipitation samples were analyzed by gamma spectrometry during the report period.Gamma emitting radionuclides were not detected in any of the eight (8) indicator samples, nor were they detected in any of the four (4) control samples.e. Deviations from Required Sampling and Analysis Schedule:

The weekly surface water sample at ATI-Allegheny Ludlam in Midland, PA (Site No. 2.1, 1.43 miles WNW) was not collected for the week of 4/22/08 to 04/29/08.

Although this weekly downstream surface water sample was missed, the minimum weekly surface water sampling requirements of ODCM procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03, Attachment Q, Table 3.12-1 were still met. Specifically, SINCE the ODCM only requires-one (1) upstream sample and one (1)downstream sample, THEN the minimum requirements were met with the upstream sample from Industry, PA (Site No. 49a, 4.93 miles NE), and the downstream sample from East Liverpool, OH (Site No. 5, 4.90 miles WNW). This condition is documented in SAP Order 200197646-0720.

f. Summary: Data from the water sample analyses demonstrate that BVPS did not contribute a significant increase of radioactivity in the local river, in the drinking water, in the well water, or in the precipitation.

The analytical results confirm that the station assessments, prior to authorizing radioactive discharges, are adequate and that the environmental monitoring program is sufficiently sensitive.

Estimates of Radiation Dose to Man 1. Pathways to Man -Calculational Models The radiation doses to man as a result of BVPS operations were calculated for both gaseous and liquid effluent pathways using computer codes for the ARERAS/MIDAS computer system.These computer codes are equivalent to NRC computer codes XOQDOQ2, GASPAR, and LADTAP. Dose factors listed in the ODCM are used to calculate doses from radioactive noble gases in discharge plumes. BVPS effluent data, based on sample analysis were used as the radionuclide activity input..All liquid and gaseous effluent radionuclides listed in the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report were input as source terms to the computer codes.All batch and continuous gaseous effluent releases were included in the dose assessment calculations.

The release activities are based on laboratory analysis.

Meteorological data collected by the BVPS Meteorology System was also used as input to the computer codes.Except when more recent or specific data was available, the usage factors were obtained from the BVPS Final Environmental Statements or Regulatory Guide 1.109.All radioactive liquid effluents are released by batch mode after analysis by gamma spectrometry.

Each batch is diluted by cooling tower blowdown water prior to'discharge into the Ohio River via the main outfall (River Mile 35.0). The actual data from these analyses are tabulated and used as the radionuclide source term input to the computer code. Except when more recent or specific data was available, the usage factors were obtained from the BVPS Final Environmental Statements or Regulatory Guide 1.109.The total population doses were evaluated for all liquid and gaseous effluent pathways out to 50 miles. For these evaluations, a total population of -4 million people was used. An estimate of the populations are listed in the BVPS-2 UFSAR Section 2.1.3.1 for 0-10 miles and Section 2.1.3.2 for '10-50 miles.2.1 Results of Calculated Population Dose to Man -Liquid Effluent Releases During the report period, the calculated dose to the entire population within 50 miles of the plant is presented in Table 2-4 for BVPS liquid effluent releases.

Also shown in this table is a comparison to natural radiation exposure.3. Results of Calculated Population Dose to Man -Gaseous Effluent Releases During the report period, the calculated dose to the entire population within 50 miles of the plant is presented in Table 2-5 for BVPS airborne effluent releases.

Also shown in this table is a comparison to natural radiation exposure.

The doses include the contribution of all pathways.2-63 I Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure.3 3 SECTION 2 -ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM 4. Conclusions U Based upon the estimated dose to individuals from the natural background radiation exposure in Tables 2-4 and 2-5, the incremental increase in total body dose to the 50-mile population from the operation of BVPS -Unit 1 and 2, is less than 0.00005% of the annual background dose. 3 The calculated doses to the public from the operation of BVPS -Unit 1 and 2, are below ODCM annual limits and resulted in only a small incremental dose to that which area residents already received as a result of natural background.

Nearest Garden >500 sqft: The current location has not changed since the previous census.The ctrrent location is at 238 State Route 168, Hookstown,.PA (0.760 miles SSW).D. Nearest Dairy Cow: The current location has not changed since the previous census., The current location is at the Searight Dairy, 948 McCleary Road, RD 1, Hookstown, PA (2.097 miles SSW).E. Nearest Doe Goat: The nearest location has changed since the previous census. However, SINCE the new location at 227 Calhoun Road, Aliquippa, PA (3.320 miles SE) cannot provide enough milk for sample analysis, THEN the location of the nearest Doe Goat milked will remain at 289 Calhoun Road, Aliquippa, PA (3.547 miles SE).F. Proiection for 2009 Dairy Cow Samplin2 Locations:

Using a linear regression analysis of deposition parameters (D/Q), Dairy Cow sampling locations were determined to remain at the same locations used in 2008:-Searight Dairy, 948 McCleary Road, RD1, Hookstown, PA (2.097 miles SSW)-Halstead Dairy, 104 Tellish Drive, Hookstown, PA (5.079 miles SSW)-Brunton Dairy, 3681 Ridge Road, Aliquippa, PA (6.158 miles SE)-Windsheimer Dairy, RD 1 Burgettstown, PA (10.476 miles SSW).3-1 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E I 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 3 -LAND USE CENSUS I G. Projection for 2009 Doe Goat Sampling Locations:

3 The linear regression analysis also indicated that there may be up to two (2) Doe Goat sampling location in 2009. The Doe Goat sampling location for 2009 may be as follows:-Collins Farm, 289 Calhoun Road, Aliquippa, PA (3.547 miles, SE).-Sullivan Farm, 198 Wilson Drive, Aliquippa, PA (4.285 miles ESE).H. D/O for Milch Animal Locations:

3 None of the 2008 milch animal sampling locations experienced a >20% increase in D/Q.Therefore, a Special Report per ODCM procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03, Attachment R, Control 3.12.2 Action "a" and/or Action "b" was not required.I. D/O for Offsite Dose Determination:

There was no adverse effect on the current ODCM methodology used for offsite dose determination from effluent releases.

Specifically, a linear regression analysis of D/Q did not yield any valid locations where the offsite dose could have increased

>20% more than the offsite dose previously calculated using current ODCM methodology.

Therefore, a Special Report per ODCM procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03, Attachment R, Control 3.12.2 Action "a" and/or Action "b" was not required.

3 J. D/O Historical Comparison:

There was no adverse trend in D/Q when comparing 1997 to 2008 data to the ODCM default D/Q values. This validates that there was no adverse effect on the current ODCM methodology used for offsite dose determination from effluent releases.

Specifically, the analysis of D/Q did not yield any valid locations where the offsite dose could have increased>20% more than the offsite dose previously calculated using current ODCM methodology.

Therefore, a change in ODCM Receptor location and/or a change to meteorology at the current ODCM Receptor location was not required.I IlI I I I 3-2 I Beaver Valley Power Station 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report SECTION 3 -LAND USE CENSUS RTh A9.690E Enclosure 3 Table 3-1 Location of Nearest Residences, Gardens, Dairy Cows and Doe Goats SECTOR RESIDENCES 0 to 5 miles (miles)N NNE NE ENE E ESE SE SSE S SSW SW WSW W WNW NW`NNW 1.584 1.661 0.406 (2)0.603 0.429 0.476 1.583 1.102 1.399 0.760 1.453 1.394 2.204 2.742 0.885 0.902 GARDENS 0 to 5 miles (miles)None None None 1.04:7 2.252 1.713 1.802 1.983 2.276 0.760 (2)1.453 2.832 None None 1.033 2.413 0 to 5 miles (miles)None None None None None None None (1)None 3.85 1 2.097 (2)None None None None None 2.442 DOE GOATS 0 -to 5 miles (miles)None None None None 3.402-4.285 3.320 (2)None None None None None None None None None (1) Although there are no Dairy Cows within 5 miles in this sector, a large local dairy located at 6.158 miles is included in the milk sampling program.(2) Distances shown in Bold print are the nearest location for that receptor.3-3 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 4- SPLIT SAMPLE PROGRAM and SPIKE SAMPLE INTER-LABORATORY COMPARISON PROGRAM A. Split Sample Program (Inter-Laboratory Comparison, Part 1 of 2): BVPS participates in a split sample program with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) in support of their nuclear power plant monitoring program.* BVPS provided split samples to PADEP throughout the report period. The shared media and number of locations were typically comprised of; milk (1), surface water (3), sediment (1), fish (1), and food crops (2).* PADEP has co-located continuous air particulate

& air iodine sample stations with four (4)of the BVPS locations.

PADEP has'co-located TLDs with twenty-four (24) of the BVPS TLDs.B. Spike Sample Program (Inter-Laboratory Comparison, Part 2 of 2): BVPS participates in a spike sample program with an Independent Laboratory.

This program is used to independently verify sample analyses performed by the BVPS Contractor Laboratory.

0 Acceptance Criteria 1: The NRC criteria listed in NRC Inspection Procedure 84750, 12/4/90, Inspection Guidance 84750-03 is used as acceptance criteria for comparisons of results of spiked samples between the Contractor Lab and the Independent Lab. These comparisons are performed by dividing the comparison standard (Independent Lab result)by its associated uncertainty to obtain the resolution.

The comparison standard value is multiplied by the ratio values obtained from the following table to find the acceptance band for the result to be compared.

However, in such cases where the counting precision of the standard yields a resolution of less than 4, a valid comparison is not practical, and therefore, not performed.

NRC Criteria Resolution Ratio<4 --4-7 0.50-2.00 8-15 0.60-1.66 16-50 0.75-1.33 51-200 0.80 -1.25> 200 0.85-1.18 Acceptance Criteria 2: BVPS also has self imposed acceptance criteria.

That criteria requires the percent difference between the Contractor Lab Activity and the Independent Lab Calculated Activity to agree by + 20%.4-1 Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 4 -SPLIT SAMPLE PROGRAM and SPIKE SAMPLE INTER-LABORATORY COMPARISON PROGRAM Participation in an Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program is required by BVPS Unit 1 and 2 m Offsite Dose Calculation Manual procedure 1/2-ODC-3.03 Attachment S Control 3.12.3. For the report period, the requirement was met by the Contractor Lab analyzing NIST traceable spiked samples supplied by an Independent Lab.7-During the report period, BVPS used (Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory

-Northbrook, IL) as the Contractor Laboratory, and (Analytics

-Atlanta, GA) as the Independent Laboratory.

The spiked samples included air particulate filter papers, charcoal cartridges, water samples, and milk samples. The samples were submitted by the Independent Laboratory to the Contractor Laboratory for analysis.

The ",spiked to" values were used for calculating comparison Acceptance Criteria.Spiked Milk & Water Samples: The spiked sample results (i.e.; the BVPS criteria) for each calendar quarter are reported in Table 4-1 through Table 4-4, respectively.

The following summary is provided:-A total of forty-eight (48) gamma spectrometry radionuclide analyses were performed by the Contractor Laboratory on four (4) milk samples.-A total of forty-eight (48) gamma spectrometry radionuclide analyses were performed by the Contractor Laboratory on four (4) water samples.-A total of four (4) chemical analyses for 1-131 were performed by the Contractor Laboratory on four (4) milk samples.-A total of four (4) chemical analyses for 1-131 analyses were performed by the Contractor Laboratory on four (4) water samples.-A total of four (4) tritium analyses were performed by the Contractor Laboratory on four (4) water samples.'-Comparison of results of the spiked milk and water samples showed acceptable agreement with the NRC acceptance criteria.

All one-hundred-eight (108) analyses met the NRC acceptance criteria.

3-Comparison of results of the spiked milk and water samples showed acceptable agreement with BVPS acceptance criteria.

All but two (2) of the one-hundred-eight 3 (108) analyses met the BVPS acceptance criteria.I 4-2 I Beaver Valley Power Station RTL A9.690E 2008 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Enclosure 3 SECTION 4 -SPLIT SAMPLE PROGRAM and SPIKE SAMPLE INTER-LABORATORY COMPARISON PROGRAM 0 Spiked Filter Paper and Charcoal Cartridge Samples: The spiked sample results for each calendar quarter are also reported in Table 4-1 through Table 4-4, respectively.

The following summary is provided: Gross Beta (Cesium-137) analyses were performed by the Contractor Laboratory on two (2) filter paper samples.Iodine-131 analyses were performed by the Contractor Laboratory on two (2)charcoal cartridge samples.Comparison of results of the, spiked filter paper and charcoal cartridge samples showed acceptable agreement with the NRC acceptance criteria.

All four (4)analyses performed by the Contractor Laboratory met the NRC acceptance criteria.Comparison of results of the spiked filter paper and charcoal cartridge samples showed acceptable agreement with the BVPS acceptance criteria.

All four (4)analyses performed by the Contractor Laboratory met the BVPS acceptance criteria C. Conclusions Results of Split Sample Program: The split sample program is coordinated by the state, and the results are not provided with this report.* Results of Spike Sample Program: Based on the Inter-Laboratory comparison data, BVPS considers all analyses provided throughout the report period by the Contractor Laboratory to be acceptable with respect to both accuracy and measurement.

A comparison of the data, to the BVPS Acceptance Criteria, is provided in the following tables. The two samples that are not within the BVPS Acceptance Criteria are in the same sample type and are for two different sample analyses.

Although these sample analyses are not within the BVPS Acceptance Criteria, they are. within the NRC Acceptance Criteria.

The BVPS acceptance criteria are self imposed and can be considered stringent compared to the NRC acceptance criteria.

The first of the two deviations occurred in the second quarter for milk for Sr-90 (-20.89%).

The second occurred in the third quarter, also for milk, but for Sr-89 (-21.79%).
