- 1. Summary and Conclusions This report on the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program conducted for the Byron Nuclear Generating Station (BNGS) by Exelon covers the period 1 January 2008 through 31 December 2008. During that time period, 1,432 analyses were performed on 1,290 samples. In assessing all the data gathered for this report and comparing these results with preoperational data, it was concluded that the operation of BNGS had no adverse radiological impact on the environment.
Surface water samples were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta, tritium and gamma emitting nuclides. Ground water samples were analyzed for concentrations of tritium and gamma emitting nuclides. Gross beta activities detected were consistent with those detected in previous years.
Fish (commercially and/or recreationally important species) and sediment samples were analyzed for concentrations of gamma emitting nuclides.
Cesium-1 37 activity was found at both sediment locations and was consistent with data from previous years. No plant produced fission or activation products were found in fish or sediment.
Air particulate samples were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta and gamma emitting nuclides. No fission or activation products were detected.
High sensitivity 1-131 analyses were performed on weekly air samples. All results were less than the minimum detectable activity.
Cow milk samples were analyzed for concentrations of 1-131 and gamma emitting nuclides. All 1-131 results were below the minimum detectable activity.
No fission or activation products were found.
Food Product samples were analyzed for concentrations of gamma emitting nuclides. No fission or activation products were detected.
Environmental gamma radiation measurements were performed quarterly using thermoluminescent dosimeters. Levels detected were consistent with those observed in previous years.

II. Introduction Byron Station, a two-unit PWR station, is located about two miles east of the Rock River and approximately three miles southwest of Byron in Ogle County, Illinois. The reactors are designed to have capacities of 1280 and 1254 MW gross, respectively. Unit One loaded fuel in November 1984 and went on line February 2, 1985. Unit Two went on line January 9, 1987. The station has been designed to keep releases to the environment at levels below those specified in the regulations.
This report covers those analyses performed by Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE) and Global Dosimetry on samples collected during the period 1 January 2008 through 31 December 2008.
A. Objective of the REMP The objectives of the REMP are to:
- 1. Provide data on measurable levels of radiation and radioactive materials in the site environs.
- 2. Evaluate the relationship between quantities of radioactive material released from the plant and resultant radiation doses to individuals from principal pathways of exposure.
B. Implementation of the Objectives The implementation of the objectives is accomplished by:
- 1. Identifying significant exposure pathways.
- 2. Establishing baseline radiological data of media within those pathways.
- 3. Continuously monitoring those media before and during Station operation to assess Station radiological effects (if any) on man and the environment.
Ill. Program Description A. Sample Collection Samples for the BNGS REMP were collected for Exelon Nuclear by Environmental Inc. (Midwest Labs). This section describes the general 10 of 206
collection methods used by Environmental Inc. to obtain environmental samples for the BNGS REMP in 2008. Sample locations and descriptions can be found in Table B-1 and Figures B-1 through B-4, Appendix B.
Aquatic Environment The aquatic environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on samples of surface water, well water, fish, and sediment.
Two gallon water samples were collected weekly from two surface water locations (BY-12 and BY-29 [Control location]) and quarterly from six well water locations (BY-14-1, BY-18, BY-32, BY-35, BY-36 and BY-37). All samples were collected in new unused plastic bottles, which were rinsed with source water prior to collection. Fish samples comprising the flesh of channel catfish, river carpsucker, smallmouth bass and common carp were collected semiannually at two locations, BY-29 (control) and BY-31.
Sediment samples composed of recently deposited substrate were collected at two locations semiannually, BY-12 and BY-34.
Atmospheric Environment The atmospheric environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on samples of air particulate, airborne iodine, and milk. Airborne iodine and particulate samples were collected and analyzed weekly at eight locations (BY-01, BY-04, BY-06, BY-08, BY-21, BY-22, BY-23, and BY-24). The control location was BY-08. Airborne iodine and particulate samples were obtained at each location, using a vacuum pump with charcoal and glass fiber filters attached. The pumps were run continuously and sampled air at the rate of approximately one cubic foot per minute. The air filters and air iodine samples were replaced weekly and sent to the laboratory for analysis.
Milk samples were collected biweekly at three locations (BY-20-1, BY-26-1 and BY-30-1) from May through October, and monthly from November through April. The control location was BY-26-1. All samples were collected in new unused two gallon plastic bottles from the bulk tank at each location, preserved with sodium bisulfite, and shipped promptly to the laboratory.
Food products were collected annually in September at five locations (BY-Control, BY-Quad 1, BY-Quad 2, BY-Quad 3, and BY-Quad 4).
Various types of samples were collected and placed in new unused plastic bags, and sent to the laboratory for analysis.

Ambient Gamma Radiation Direct radiation measurements were made using CaF 2 thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD). The TLD locations were placed on and around the BNGS site as follows:
An inner ring consisting of 16 locations (BY-101, BY-102, BY-103, BY-104, BY-105, BY-106, BY-107, BY-108, BY-109, BY-110, BY-111, BY-112, BY-113, BY-114, BY-115, and BY-116) near and within the site perimeter representing fence post doses (i.e., at locations where the doses will be potentially greater than maximum annual off-site doses) from BNGS release.
An outer ring consisting of 16 locations (BY-201, BY-202, BY-203, BY-204, BY-205, BY-206, BY-207, BY-208, BY-209, BY-210, BY-21 1, BY-212, BY-213, BY-214, BY-215 and BY-216) extending to approximately 5 miles from the site designed to measure possible exposures to close-in population.
A special interest set consisting of three locations (BY-301-1, BY-302-1 and BY-314-1).
An other set consisting of seven locations (BY-01, BY-04, BY-06, BY-21, BY-22, BY-23 and BY-24).
The balance of one location (BY-08) representing the control area.
The specific TLD locations were determined by the following criteria:
- 1. The presence of relatively dense population;
- 2. Site meteorological data taking into account distance and elevation for each of the sixteen-22 1/2 degree sectors around the site, where estimated annual dose from BNGS, if any, would be most significant;
- 3. On hills free from local obstructions and within sight of the vents (where practical);
- 4. And near the closest dwelling to the vents in the prevailing downwind direction.
Two TLDs - each comprised of two CaF 2 thermoluminescent phosphors enclosed in plastic - were placed at each location located at a minimum of five feet above ground level. The TLDs were exchanged quarterly and 12 of 206
sent to Global Dosimetry for analysis.
B. Sample Analysis This section describes the general analytical methodologies used by TBE and Environmental Inc. (Midwest Labs) to analyze the environmental samples for radioactivity for the BNGS REMP in 2008. The analytical procedures used by the laboratories are listed in Table B-2.
In order to achieve the stated objectives, the current program includes the following analyses:
- 1. Concentrations of beta emitters in surface water and air particulates.
- 2. Concentrations of gamma emitters in ground and surface water, air particulates, milk, fish, sediment and vegetation.
- 3. Concentrations of tritium in ground and surface water.
- 4. Concentrations of 1-131 in air and milk.
- 5. Ambient gamma radiation levels at various site environs.
C. Data Interpretation The radiological and direct radiation data collected prior to Byron Nuclear Generating Station becoming operational were used as a baseline with which these operational data were compared. For the purpose of this report, Byron Nuclear Generating Station was considered operational at initial criticality. In addition, data were compared to previous years' operational data for consistency and trending. Several factors were important in the interpretation of the data:
- 1. Lower Limit of Detection and Minimum Detectable Concentration The lower limit of detection (LLD) was defined as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that would yield a net count (above background) that would be detected with only a 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal. The LLD was intended as a before-the-fact estimate of a system (including instrumentation, procedure and sample type) and not as an after-the-fact criteria for the presence of activity. All analyses were designed to achieve the required BNGS detection capabilities for environmental sample analysis.
13 of 206
The minimum detectable concentration (MDC) is defined above with the exception that the measurement is an after-the-fact estimate of the presence of activity.
- 2. Net Activity Calculation and Reporting of Results Net activity for a sample was calculated by subtracting background activity from the sample activity. Since the REMP measures extremely small changes in radioactivity in the environment, background variations may result in sample activity being lower than the background activity effecting a negative number. An MDC was reported in all cases where positive activity was not detected.
Gamma spectroscopy results for each type of sample were grouped as follows:
For surface water, ground water and vegetation twelve nuclides, Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Nb-95, Zr-95, 1-131, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ba-140, and La-140 were reported.
For fish, sediment, air particulate, milk and vegetation eleven nuclides, Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Nb-95, Zr-95, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ba-140 and La-140 were reported.
Means and standard deviations of the results were calculated. The standard deviations represent the variability of measured results for different samples rather than single analysis uncertainty.
D. Program Exceptions For 2008 the BNGS REMP had a sample recovery rate in excess of 99%.

IV. Results and Discussion A. Aquatic Environment
- 1. Surface Water Samples were taken weekly and composited monthly at two locations (BY-12 and BY-29). Of these locations only BY-12 located downstream, could be affected by Byron Nuclear Generating Station's effluent releases. The following analyses were performed.
Gross Beta Samples from both locations were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta (Table C-1.1, Appendix C). The values ranged from 3.5 to 6.4 pCi/I. Concentrations detected were consistent with those detected in previous years (Figure C-1, Appendix C).
Tritium Quarterly composites of weekly collections were analyzed for tritium activity (Table C-1.2, Appendix C). No tritium was detected, and the required LLD was met. (Figure C-2, Appendix C).
18 of 206
Gamma Spectrometrv Samples from both locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-1.3, Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.
- 2. Ground Water Quarterly grab samples were collected at six locations (BY-14-1, BY-18, BY-32, BY-35, BY-36 and BY-37). These locations could be affected by Byron Nuclear Generating Station's effluent releases. The following analyses were performed:
Tritium Quarterly grab samples from the locations were analyzed for tritium activity (Table C-11.1, Appendix C). No tritium was detected, and the required LLD was met (Figures C-3 and C-6, Appendix C).
Gamma Spectrometry Samples from all locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-11.2 Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.
- 3. Fish Fish samples comprised of smallmouth bass, channel catfish, river carpsucker and common carp were collected at two locations (BY-29 and BY-31) semiannually. Location BY-31 could be affected by Byron Nuclear Generating Station's effluent releases. The following analysis was performed:
Gamma Spectrometry The edible portion of fish samples from both locations was analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-111.1, Appendix C).
No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.
- 4. Sediment Aquatic sediment samples were collected at two locations (BY-12 and BY-34) semiannually. Both locations, located downstream, 19 of 206
could be affected by Byron Nuclear Generating Station's effluent releases. The following analysis was performed:
Gamma Spectrometry Sediment samples from both locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-IV.1, Appendix C). Cesium-137 was detected in both locations. The values ranged from 60 to 320 pCi/kg dry. Concentrations detected were consistent with those detected in previous years. No other nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.
B. Atmospheric Environment
- 1. Airborne
- a. Air Particulates Continuous air particulate samples were collected from eight locations on a weekly basis. The eight locations were separated into three groups: Nearsite samplers (BY-21, BY-22, BY-23 and BY-24), Far Field samplers within 4 km of the site (BY-01, BY-04, and BY-06) and the Control sampler between 10 and 30 km from the site (BY-08). The following analyses were performed:
Gross Beta Weekly samples were analyzed for concentrations of beta emitters (Table C-V.1 and C-V.2, Appendix C).
Detectable gross beta activity was observed at all locations.
Comparison of results among the three groups aid in determining the effects, if any, resulting from the operation of BNGS. The results from the Nearsite locations (Group I) ranged from 5 to 38 E-3 pCi/m 3 with a mean of 19 E-3 pCi/m 3 . The results from the Far Field locations (Group II) ranged from 7 to 42 E-3 pCi/m 3 with a mean of 20 E-3 pCi/m 3 . The results from the Control location (Group Ill) ranged from 8 to 37 E-3 pCi/m 3 with a mean of 20 E-3 pCi/m 3 . Comparison of the 2008 air particulate data with previous years data indicate no effects from the operation of BNGS. In addition a comparison of the weekly mean values for 2008 indicate no notable differences among the three groups (Figures C-7 through C-1 1, Appendix C).
20 of 206
Gamma Spectrometry Weekly samples were composited quarterly and analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-V.3, Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.

Gamma Spectrometry Samples from all locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-VIII.1, Appendix C). No nuclides were detected, and all required LLDs were met.
C. Ambient Gamma Radiation Ambient gamma radiation levels were measured utilizing Panasonic 814 (CaF 2 ) thermoluminescent dosimeters. Eighty-seven TLD locations were established around the site. Results of TLD measurements are listed in Tables C-IX.1 to C-IX.3, Appendix C.
Most TLD measurements were below 30 mR/standard month, with a range of 16 to 30 mR/standard month. A comparison of the Inner Ring, Outer Ring, Special Interest, Other and Control Location data indicate that the ambient gamma radiation levels were comparable among the groups.
D. Land Use Survey A Land Use Survey conducted during August 2008 around the Byron Nuclear Generating Station (BNGS) was performed by Environmental Inc.
(Midwest Labs) for Exelon Nuclear to comply with the Byron Nuclear Generating Station's Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The purpose of the survey was to document the nearest resident, milk producing animal and garden of greater than 500 ft2 in each of the sixteen 22 1/2 degree sectors around the site. There were no changes required to the BNGS REMP, as a result of this survey. The results of this survey are summarized below.

F. Summary of Results - Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program The primary laboratories analyzed Performance Evaluation (PE) samples of air particulate, air iodine, milk, soil, vegetation and water matrices (Appendix D). The PE samples, supplied by Analytics Inc., Environmental Resource Associates (ERA) and DOE's Mixed Analyte Performance Evaluation Program (MAPEP), were evaluated against the following pre-set acceptance criteria:
- 1. Analytics Evaluation Criteria Analytics' evaluation report provides a ratio of laboratory results and Analytics' known value. Since flag values are not assigned by Analytics, TBE-ES evaluates the reported ratios based on internal QC requirements, which are based on the DOE MAPEP criteria.
- 2. ERA Evaluation Criteria ERA's evaluation report provides an acceptance range for control and warning limits with associated flag values. ERA's acceptance limits are established per the USEPA, NELAC, state specific PT 23 of 206
program requirements or ERA's SOP for the Generation of Performance Acceptance Limits, as applicable. The acceptance limits are either determined by a regression equation specific to each analyte or a fixed percentage limit promulgated under the appropriate regulatory document.
- 3. DOE Evaluation Criteria MAPEP's evaluation report provides an acceptance range with associated flag values.
The MAPEP defines three-levels of performance: Acceptable (flag =
"A"), Acceptable with Warning (flag = "W"), and Not Acceptable (flag = "N"). Performance is considered acceptable when a mean result for the specified analyte is +/- 20% of the reference value.
Performance is acceptable with warning when a mean result falls in the range from +/-20% to +/-30% of the reference value (i.e., 20% <
bias < 30%). Ifthe bias is greater than 30%, the results are deemed not acceptable.
For the primary laboratory, 16 out of 18 analytes met the specified acceptance criteria. Two samples did not meet the specified acceptance criteria for the following reasons:
- 1. Teledyne Brown Engineering's Analytics December 2008 Sr-89 in milk result of 18.0 pCi/L was higher than the known value of 12.6 pCi/L, resulting in a found to known ratio of 1.43. NCR 09-02 was initiated to investigate this failure.
- 2. Teledyne Brown Engineering's Analytics' ERA Quik Response water sample January 2008 Sr-89 result of 37.33 pCi/L exceeded the upper acceptance limit of 25.2 pCi/L. No cause could be found for the failure. Studies bracketing these results, RAD 71 and RAD 72 had acceptable Sr-89 results. NCR 08-03 24 of 206

INTRODUCTION Liquid effluents from Byron Station are released to the Rock River in controlled batches after radioassay of each batch. Gaseous effluents are released to the atmosphere and are calculated on the basis of analyses of weekly grab samples and grab samples of batch releases prior to the release of noble gases as well as continuously collected composite samples of iodine and particulate radioactivity sampled during the course of the year. The results of effluent analyses are summarized on a monthly basis. Airborne concentrations of noble gases, 1-131, and particulate radioactivity in offsite areas are calculated using isotopic composition of effluents and meteorological data.
Environmental monitoring is conducted by sampling at indicator and control (background) locations in the vicinity of Byron Station to measure changes in radiation or radioactivity levels that may be attributable to station operation. If significant changes attributable to Byron Station are measured, these changes are correlated with effluent releases. External gamma radiation exposure from noble gases and internal dose from 1-131 in milk are the critical pathways at this site; however, an environmental monitoring program is conducted which also includes other pathways.

SUMMARY
Calculations based on gaseous and liquid effluents, Rock River flow and meteorological data indicate that public dose due to radioactive material attributable to Byron Station during the period does not exceed regulatory or Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) limits.
The Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) due to licensed activities at Byron Station calculated for the maximum-exposed individual for the period is 3.12E-01 mrem. The annual limit on TEDE is 100 mrem.
The assessment of radiation doses to the public is performed in accordance with the ODCM. The results of these analyses confirm that the station is operating in compliance with 10CFR50 Appendix I, 10CFR20 and 40CFR190.
There were no additional operational controls implemented which affected the areas of radiological effluents in 2008.
There were no measurements which exceeded the reporting levels, including any which would not have been attributable to station effluents.
The results of the current radiological environmental monitoring program are approximately the same as those found during the pre-operational studies conducted at Byron Station.

1.0 EFFLUENTS 1.1 Gaseous Effluents to the Atmosphere Measured concentrations and isotopic composition of noble gases, radioiodine, tritium and particulate radioactivity released to the atmosphere during the year, are listed in Table 1.1-1.
A total of 1.15E+01 curies of fission and activation gases were released with a maximum average quarterly release rate of 9.32E-01 pCi/sec.
A total of 1.21 E-04 curies of 1-131 were released during the year with a maximum average quarterly release rate of 9.35E-06 pCi/sec.
A total of 7.35E-06 curies were released as airborne particulate matter with a maximum average quarterly release rate of 3.82E-07 pCi/sec. Alpha-emitting radionuclides were below detectable limits.
A total of O.OOE+00 curies of other radioisotopes were released with a maximum average quarterly release rate of 0.OOE+00 pCi/sec.
A total of 8.25E+01 curies of tritium were released with a maximum average quarterly release rate of 2.03E+00 pCi/sec.
1.2 Liquids Released to Rock River A total of 2.80E+10 liters of radioactive liquid wastes (prior to dilution) containing 1.87E-02 curies (excluding tritium, noble gases and alpha) were discharged from the station. These wastes were released at a maximum quarterly average concentration of 1.25E-09 pCi/ml. A total of 3.OOE+03 curies of tritium were released. Quarterly release totals of principal radionuclides in liquid effluents are given in Table 1.2-1.
2.0 SOLID RADIOACTIVE WASTE Solid radioactive wastes were shipped by truck. For detail, refer to Byron Station 2008 Effluent Report.

3.0 DOSE TO MAN 3.1 Gaseous Effluent Pathways Table 3.1-1 summarizes the doses resulting from releases of airborne radioactivity via the different exposure pathways.
3.1.1 Noble Gases 3.1.1.1 Gamma Dose Rates Offsite Gamma air and whole body dose rates are shown in Table 3.1-1 and were calculated based on measured release rates, isotopic composition of the noble gases, and average meteorological data for the period. Dose rates based on concurrent meteorological data are shown in Table 3.4-1. Based on measured effluents and average meteorological data, the maximum total body dose to an individual would be 1.37E-02 mrem for the year (Table 3.1-1), with an occupancy or shielding factor of 0.7 included. The maximum total body dose based on measured effluents and concurrent meteorological data would be 1.98E-03 mrem (Table 3.4-1). The maximum gamma air dose was 3.94E-02 mrad (Table 3.1-1) based on measured effluents and average meteorological data, and 3.64E-03 mrad based on concurrent meteorological data (Table 3.4-1).
3.1.1.2 Beta Air and Skin Dose Rates The range of beta particles in air is relatively small (on the order of a few meters or less);
consequently, plumes of gaseous effluents may be considered "semi-infinite" for purpose of calculating the dose from beta radiation incident on the skin. However, the actual dose to sensitive skin tissues is difficult to calculate due to the effect of the beta particle energies, thickness of inert skin and clothing covering sensitive tissues. For purposes of this report the skin is taken to have a thickness of 7.0 mg/cm 2 and an occupancy factor of 1.0 is used. The skin dose based on concurrent meteorological data for the year was 4.19E-03 106 of 206
mrem (Table 3.4-1)
The maximum offsite beta air dose for the year, based on measured effluents and average meteorological data, was 2.26E-03 mrad (Table 3.1-1). The beta air dose based on concurrent meteorological data was 2.33E-03 mrad (Table 3.4-1).
3.1.2 Radioactive Iodine The human thyroid exhibits a significant capacity to concentrate ingested or inhaled iodine. The minimal levels of radioiodine, 1-131, released during routine operation of the station, may be made available to man resulting in a dose to the thyroid. The principal pathway of interest for this radionuclide is ingestion of radioiodine in milk. Calculations made for 2008 and previous years indicate that contributions to doses from inhalation of 1-131 and 1-133 and ingestion of 1-133 in milk are negligible.
3.1.2.1 Dose to Thyroid The hypothetical thyroid dose to the maximum exposed individual living near the station via ingestion of milk was calculated. The radionuclide considered was 1-131 and the source of milk was taken to be the nearest dairy farm with the cows pastured from May through October. The maximum thyroid dose was less than 7.80E-02 mrem during the year (Table 3.1-1 [infant]).
3.2 Liquid Effluent Pathways The three principal pathways through the aquatic environment for potential doses to man from liquid waste are ingestion of potable water, eating aquatic foods, and exposure while on the shoreline.
Not all of these pathways are significant or applicable at a given time or station but a reasonable approximation of the dose can be made by adjusting the dose formula for season of the year or type and degree of use of the aquatic environment. NRC developed equations* were used to calculate the doses to the whole body, lower GI tracts, thyroid, bone and skin; specific parameters for use in the equations are given in the Exelon Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The maximum whole body dose for the year was 2.98E-01 mrem (adult) and no organ dose exceeded 3.34E-01 mrem (Table 107 of 206
3.2-1 [adult]).
3.3 Assessment of Dose to Member of Public During the period January to December 2008, Byron Station did not exceed the limits below as shown in Table 3.1-1 and Table 3.2-1 (based on yearly average meteorological data), and Table 3.4-1 (based on concurrent meteorological data):
The RETS limits on dose or dose commitment to a member of the public due to radioactive materials in liquid effluents from each reactor unit (1.5 mrem to the whole body or 5 mrem to any organ during any calendar quarter; 3 mrem to the whole body or 10 mrem to any organ during the calendar year).
- The RETS limits on air dose in noble gases released in gaseous effluents to a member of the public from each reactor unit (5 mrads for gamma radiation or 10 mrad for beta radiation during any calendar quarter; 10 mrad for gamma radiation or 20 mrad for beta radiation during a calendar year).
The RETS limits on dose to a member of the public due to iodine-131, iodine-133, tritium, and radionuclides in particulate form 'with half-lives greater than eight days in gaseous effluents released from each reactor unit (7.5 mrem to any organ during any calendar quarter; 15 mrem to any organ during any calendar year).
The 10CFR20 limit on Total Effective Dose Equivalent to individual members of the public (100 mrem).
4.0 SITE METEOROLOGY A summary of the site meteorological measurements taken during each calendar quarter of the year is given in Appendix E. The data are presented as cumulative joint frequency distributions of the wind direction for the 250' level and wind speed class by atmospheric stability class determined from the temperature difference between the 250' and 30' levels. Data recovery for all measurements on the tower as 99.4% during 2008 (Table 3.4-1).

I. Summary and Conclusions In 2006, Exelon instituted a comprehensive monitoring program to evaluate the impact of station operations on groundwater in the vicinity of Byron Nuclear Generating Station. The monitoring was conducted in two phases. Phase 1 of the monitoring was part of a comprehensive study initiated by Exelon to determine whether groundwater or surface water at and in the vicinity of Byron Nuclear Generating Station had been adversely impacted by any releases of radionuclides. Phase 1 was conducted by Conestoga Rovers and Associates (CRA) and the conclusions were made available to state and federal regulators as well as the public on an Exelon web site http://www.exeloncorp.com/ourcompanies/powercqen/nuclear/Tritium.html. Phase 2 of the RGPP was conducted by Exelon corporate and station personnel to initiate follow up of Phase 1 and begin long-term monitoring at groundwater locations selected during Phase 1.This is the third in a series of annual reports on the status of the Radiological Groundwater Protection Program (RGPP) conducted at Byron Nuclear Generating Station. This report covers groundwater samples, collected from the environment, both on and off station property in 2008.
During that time period, 68 analyses were performed on 49 samples from 22 locations.
Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective Lower Limits of Detection (LLDs) as specified in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) in any of the groundwater samples tested. In the case of tritium, Exelon specified that its laboratories achieve a lower limit of detection 10 times lower than that required by federal regulation.
Strontium-90 was not detected at a concentration greater than the LLD of 2.0 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L) in any of the groundwater samples tested in 2008.
Tritium was not detected in any of the groundwater samples at concentrations greater than the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) drinking water standard (and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Reporting Limit) of 20,000 pCi/L. Low levels of tritium were detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in three of 22 groundwater sample locations.
The tritium concentrations in these three monitoring wells ranged from 207 +/- 118 pCi/L to 2,150 +/- 278 pCi/L. Two of these monitoring wells (AR-4 & AR-11) are located near Circ Water Blowdown vaults (3 & 4) along the blowdown line located west of the station. The third well (AR-7) is located west of U2 Containment.
This well was resampled after a positive result (207 pCi/L) with the results being
<LLD. The initial result was suspected to be due to rainwater intrusion into the well borehole that has since been corrected. Well AR-4 has shown an overall decrease in tritium concentration since first sampled in 2006. Well AR-1 1 has 187 of 206
been relatively unchanged from previous results. Wells AR-2 & AR-3 tritium concentrations decreased below the LLD value for the first time since sampling began in 2006.
In assessing all the data gathered for this report, it was concluded that the operation of Byron Nuclear Generating Station had no adverse radiological impact on the environment, and there are no known active releases into the groundwater at Byron Nuclear Generating Station.

II. Introduction The Byron Station, a two-unit PWR station, is located about two miles east of the Rock River and approximately three miles southwest of Byron in Ogle County, Illinois. The reactors are designed to have capacities of 1280 and 1254 MW gross, respectively. Unit One loaded fuel in November 1984 and went on line February 2, 1985. Unit Two went on line January 9, 1987.
This report covers those analyses performed by Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE) on samples collected in 2008.
A. Objectives of the RGPP The long-term objectives of the RGPP are as follows:
- 1. Identify suitable locations to monitor and evaluate potential impacts from station operations before significant radiological impact to the environment and potential drinking water sources.
- 2. Understand the local hydrogeologic regime in the vicinity of the station and maintain up-to-date knowledge of flow patterns on the surface and shallow subsurface.
- 3. Perform routine water sampling and radiological analysis of water from selected locations.
- 4. Report new leaks, spills, or other detections with potential radiological significance to stakeholders in a timely manner.
- 5. Regularly assess analytical results to identify adverse trends.
- 6. Take necessary corrective actions to protect groundwater resources.
B. Implementation of the Objectives The objectives identified have been implemented at Byron Nuclear Generating Station as discussed below:
- 1. Exelon and its consultant identified locations as described in the Phase 1 study. Phase 1 studies were conducted by Conestoga Rovers and Associates (CRA) and the results and conclusions were made available to state and federal regulators as well as the public on an Exelon web site in station specific reports.

- 2. The Byron Nuclear Generating Station reports describe the local hydrogeologic regime. Periodically, the flow patterns on the surface and shallow subsurface are updated based on ongoing measurements.
- 3. Byron Nuclear Generating Station will continue to perform routine sampling and radiological analysis of water from selected locations.
.4. Byron Nuclear Generating Station has implemented new procedures to identify and report new leaks, spills, or other detections with potential radiological significance in a timely manner.
- 5. Byron Nuclear Generating Station staff and consulting hydrogeologist assess analytical results on an ongoing basis to identify adverse trends.
C. Program Description
- 1. Sample Collection Sample locations can be found in Table A--1 and Figure A-I, Appendix A.
Groundwater Samples of water are collected, managed, transported and analyzed in accordance with approved procedures following EPA methods.
Only groundwater is collected. Sample locations, sample collection frequencies and analytical frequencies are controlled in accordance with approved station procedures. Contractor and/or station personnel are trained in the collection, preservation management, and shipment of samples, as well as in documentation of sampling events. Analytical laboratories are subject to internal quality assurance programs, industry cross-check programs, as well as nuclear industry audits. Station personnel review and evaluate all analytical data deliverables as data are received.
Analytical data results are reviewed by both station personnel and an independent hydrogeologist for adverse trends or changes to hydrogeologic conditions.

D. Characteristics of Tritium (H-3)
Tritium (chemical symbol H-3) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. The most common form of tritium is tritium oxide, which is also called "tritiated water." The chemical properties of tritium are essentially those of ordinary hydrogen.
Tritiated water behaves the same as ordinary water in both the environment and the body. Tritium can be taken into the body by drinking water, breathing air, eating food, or absorption through skin. Once tritium enters the body, it disperses quickly and is uniformly distributed throughout the body. Tritium is excreted primarily through urine with a clearance rate characterized by an effective biological half-life of about 14 days. Within one month or so after ingestion, essentially all tritium is cleared.
Organically bound tritium (tritium that is incorporated in organic compounds) can remain in the body for a longer period.
Tritium is produced naturally in the upper atmosphere when cosmic rays weapons strike air molecules. Tritium is also produced during nuclear explosions, as a by-product in reactors producing electricity, and in special production reactors, where the isotopes lithium-7 and/or boron-1 0 are activated to produce tritium. Like normal water, tritiated water is colorless and odorless. Tritiated water behaves chemically and physically like non-tritiated water in the subsurface, and therefore tritiated water will travel at the same velocity as the average groundwater velocity.
Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12.3 years. It decays spontaneously to helium-3 (3He). This radioactive decay releases a beta particle (low-energy electron). The radioactive decay of tritium is the source of the health risk from exposure to tritium. Tritium is one of the least dangerous radionuclides because it emits very weak radiation and leaves the body relatively quickly. Since tritium is almost always found as water, it goes directly into soft tissues and organs. The associated dose to these tissues is generally uniform and is dependent on the water content of the specific tissue.
Ill. Program Description A. Sample Analysis This section describes the general analytical methodologies used by TBE to analyze the environmental samples for radioactivity for the Byron Nuclear Generating Station RGPP in 2008.
192 of 206
In order to achieve the stated objectives, the current program includes the following analyses:
- 1. Concentrations of gamma emitters in groundwater (as required by procedure).
- 2. Concentrations of strontium in groundwater (as required by procedure).
- 3. Concentrations of tritium in groundwater.
B. Data Interpretation The radiological data collected prior to Byron Nuclear Generating Station becoming operational were used as a baseline with which these operational data were compared. For the purpose of this report, Byron Nuclear Generating Station was considered operational at initial criticality.
Several factors were important in the interpretation of the data:
- 1. Lower Limit of Detection and Minimum Detectable Concentration The lower limit of detection (LLD) is specified by federal regulation as a minimum sensitivity value that must be achieved routinely by the analytical parameter.
- 2. Laboratory Measurements Uncertainty The estimated uncertainty in measurement of tritium in environmental samples is frequently on the order of 50% of the measurement value.
Statistically, the exact value of a measurement is expressed as a range with a stated level of confidence. The convention is to report results with a 95% level of confidence. The uncertainty comes from calibration standards, sample volume or weight measurements, sampling uncertainty and other factors. Exelon reports the uncertainty of a measurement created by statistical process (counting error) as well as all sources of error (Total Propagated Uncertainty or TPU). Each result has two values calculated. Exelon reports the TPU by following the result with plus or minus +/- the estimated sample standard deviation, as TPU, that is obtained by propagating all sources of analytical uncertainty in measurements.
Analytical uncertainties are reported at the 95% confidence level in 193 of 206
this report for reporting consistency with the AREOR.
C. Background Analysis A pre-operational radiological environmental monitoring program (pre-operational REMP) was conducted to establish background radioactivity levels prior to operation of the Station. The environmental media sampled and analyzed during the pre-operational REMP were atmospheric radiation, fall-out, domestic water, surface water, marine life, and foodstuffs. The results of the monitoring were detailed in the report entitled, Environmental Radiological Monitoring for Byron Nuclear Generating Nuclear Power Station, Commonwealth Edison Company, Annual Report 1984, April 1985.
The pre-operational REMP contained analytical results from samples collected from the surface water and groundwater. All groundwater samples listed in the pre-Operational REMP report were <200 pCi/L.
- 1. Background Concentrations of Tritium The purpose of the following discussion is to summarize background measurements of tritium in various media performed by others. Additional detail may be found by consulting references (CRA 2006).
- a. Tritium Production Tritium is created in the environment from naturally occurring processes both cosmic and subterranean, as well as from anthropogenic (i.e., man-made) sources. In the upper atmosphere, "Cosmogenic" tritium is produced from the bombardment of stable nuclides and combines with oxygen to form tritiated water, which will then enter the hydrologic cycle. Below ground, "lithogenic" tritium is produced by the bombardment of natural lithium present in crystalline rocks by neutrons produced by the radioactive decay of naturally abundant uranium and thorium. Lithogenic production of tritium is usually negligible compared to other sources due to the limited abundance of lithium in rock. The lithogenic tritium is introduced directly to groundwater.
A major anthropogenic source of tritium and strontium-90 comes from the former atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Levels of tritium in precipitation increased significantly during the 1950s and early 1960s, and later with 194 of 206
additional testing, resulting in the release of significant amounts of tritium to the atmosphere. The Canadian heavy water nuclear power reactors, other commercial power reactors, nuclear research and weapons production continue to influence tritium concentrations in the environment.
- b. Precipitation Data Precipitation samples are routinely collected at stations around the world for the analysis of tritium and other radionuclides. Two publicly available databases that provide tritium concentrations in precipitation are Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP) and USEPA's RadNet database. GNIP provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected world wide from 1960 to 2006.
RadNet provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected at stations through out the U.S. from 1960 up to and including 2006. Based on GNIP data for sample stations located in the U.S. Midwest, tritium concentrations peaked around 1963. This peak, which approached 10,000 pCi/L for some stations, coincided with the atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Tritium concentrations in surface water showed a sharp decline up until 1975 followed by a gradual decline since that time. Tritium concentrations in Midwest precipitation have typically been below 100 pCi/L since around 1980. Tritium concentrations in wells may still be above the 200 pCi/L detection limit from the external causes described above. Water from previous years and decades is naturally captured in groundwater, so some well water sources today are affected by the surface water from the 1960s that was elevated in tritium.
- c. Surface Water Data Tritium concentrations are routinely measured in large surface water bodies, including Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River. Illinois surface water data were typically less than 100 pCi/L.
The USEPA RadNet surface water data typically has a reported 'Combined Standard Uncertainty' of 35 to 50 pCi/L.
According to USEPA, this corresponds to a +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L 95% confidence bound on each given measurement.
Therefore, the typical background data provided may be subject to measurement uncertainty of approximately +/- 70 to 195 of 206
100 pCi/L.
The radio-analytical laboratory is counting tritium results to an Exelon specified LLD of 200 pCi/L. Typically, the lowest positive measurement will be reported within a range of 40 -
240 pCi/L or 140 +/- 100 pCi/L. Clearly, these sample results cannot be distinguished as different from background at this concentration.
IV. Results and Discussion A. Groundwater Results Groundwater Samples were collected from on and off-site wells throughout the year in accordance with the station radiological groundwater protection program.
Analytical results and anomalies are discussed below.
Tritium Samples from all locations were analyzed for tritium activity (Table B-1.1, Appendix B). Tritium values ranged from less than the detection limit to 2,150 pCi/I. Within the station boundary, concentrations of tritium at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer ranged from 207-2150 pCi/L.
Outside of the station boundary, tritium concentrations were all less than detection limit (<200 pCi/L). This is based on evaluation of groundwater sample results obtained as part of the Byron Station REMP. Of the twenty-two wells sampled in 2008, three contained levels of tritium above the lower limit of detection (LLD) of 200 pCi/L. They were: AR-4 (2150 and 1910 pCi/L), AR-11 (1220 & 1280 pCi/L), and AR-7 (207 pCi/L). Well AR-7 was resampled after the initial positive result and found to be <LLD. The suspected cause of the initial result was rainwater intrusion into the well borehole that has since seen corrected. Well AR-4 has shown an overall decrease in tritium concentration since first sampled in 2006. Well AR-i 1 has been relatively unchanged from previous results. The tritium detected in groundwater samples has been isolated to the Galena-Platteville aquifer, which is isolated from the deeper regional groundwater aquifer by the semi-confining Glenwood Formation. Groundwater quality data from production wells and monitoring wells at the station located below this aquifer do not indicate concentrations of tritium greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L. As such, the tritium impact is limited to the Galena-Platteville aquifer.

Strontium Strontium-90 was not detected in the any of the samples tested in 2008.
Gamma Emitters Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective Lower Limits of Detection (LLDs) in any of the samples during 2008.
B. Drinking Water Well Survey No drinking water well surveys were conducted in 2008.

There have been no new leaks, spills or releases at Byron Station in 2008.
E. Trends Well AR-4 has shown an overall decrease in tritium concentration since first sampled in 2006. In 2008, Wells AR-2 &AR-3 tritium concentrations decreased below the LLD value for the first time since sampling began in 2006.
F. Investigations No investigations were initiated in 2008 due to anomalous sample results.
