1.0 EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
The Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report describes the radioactive effluent control program conducted at the North Anna Power Station and Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) during the 2008 calendar year. This document summarizes the quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents and solid waste released from the North Anna Power Station and ISFSI in accordance with R.G.
1.21 during the period January 1 through December 31, 2008, and includes an assessment of radiation doses to the maximum exposed member of the public due to radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents.
There were no releases from the ISFSI during 2008.
There were no unplanned releases, meeting the reporting criteria of section 6.7.2.a.3 of the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual during this reporting period. Neither were there any spills or leaks meeting the reporting criteria of the NEI Ground Water Protection Initiative.
Based on the 2008 effluent release data, 10 CFR 50, Appendix I dose calculations were performed in accordance with the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The results of these pathway dose calculations indicate the following:
- a.
The total body dose due to liquid effluents was 3.82E-1 mrem, which is 6.37% of the dose limit and the critical organ dose due to liquid effluents was 5.09E-1 mrem, which is 2.55% of the dose limit.
- b.
The air dose due to noble gases was 2.80E-5 mrad gamma, which is 1.40E-4% of the annual gamma dose limit, and 1.08E-4 mrad beta, which is 2.70E-4% of the annual beta dose limit.
- c.
The critical organ dose for 1-131,1-133, H-3, and Particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days was 1.33E-2 mrem, which is 4.43E-2% of the annual dose limit.
There was one major change to radioactive liquid waste treatment system, but no major changes to the gaseous, and solid waste treatment systems during this reporting period.
There was one revision to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual during this reporting period.

1.0 EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
(cont.)
Based on the levels of radioactivity observed during this reporting period and the dose calculations performed, the operations of the North Anna Nuclear Power Station Units 1, 2, and ISFSI have resulted in negligible dose consequences to the maximum exposed member of-,the public in unrestricted areas.
2.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE The Radioactive Effluent Release Report includes, in Attachment 1, a summary of the quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents and solid waste as outlined in Regulatory Guide 1.21, "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactivity in Solid Wastes and Releases of Radioactive Materials in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents from Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants", Revision 1, June 1974, with data summarized on a quarterly basis for Table 1 and 2 and on an annual basis on Table 3. The report submitted before May 1 st of each year includes an assessment of radiation doses to the maximum exposed member of the public due to radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents released from the site during the previous calendar year. The report also includes a list of unplanned releases during the reporting period, in.
As required byTechnical Specification, any changes to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM)for the time period covered by this report are included in Attachment 3.
Major changes to radioactive liquid, gaseous and solid waste treatment systems are reported in Attachment 4, as required by the ODCM, section 6.7.2.a.4. Information to support the reason(s) for the change(s) and a summary of the 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation are included. In lieu of reporting major changes in this report, major changes to the radioactive waste treatment systems may be submitted as part of FSAR updates.
As required by the ODCM, sections 6.2.2.b.2 and 6.3.2.b.3, a list and explanation for the inoperability of radioactive liquid and/or gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation is provided in Attachment 5 of this report.
2
3.0 DISCUSSION The basis for the calculation of the percent of Technical Specification for the critical organ in Table 1 A of is the ODCM, section 6.3.1, which requires that the dose rate for iodine-i 31 & iodine-1 33, for tritium, and for all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days shall be less than or equal to 1500 mrem/yr to the critical organ at or beyond the site boundary. The critical organ is the child's thyroid via the inhalation pathway.
The basis for the calculation of percent of Technical Specification for the total body and skin in Table 1 A of is the ODCM, section 6.3.1, which requires that the dose rate for noble gases to areas at or beyond the site boundary shall be less than or equal to 500 mrem/yr to the total body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/yr to the skin.
The basis for the calculation of the percent of Technical Specification in Table 2A in Attachment 1 is the ODCM, section 6.2.1, which states that the concentrations of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to unrestricted areas shall be limited to 10 times the concentrations specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 2.OE-4 gCi/ml.
Percent of Technical Specification calculations are based on the total gaseous or liquid effluents released for that respective quarter.
The annual and quarterly doses, as reported in Attachment 2, were calculated according to the methodology presented in the ODCM. The beta and gamma air doses due to noble gases released from the site were calculated at site boundary. The maximum exposed member of the public from the releases of airborne iodine-1 31 & iodine-i 33, tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days, is defined as a child, exposed through the vegetation pathway, with the critical organ being the thyroid gland. The maximum exposed member of the public for calculation of total body dose from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released to unrestricted areas is defined as an adult, and as a child for the calculation of critical organ dose, which was determined to be the liver. Both age groups are exposed via the drinking water and fish ingestion pathways.
As shown in Attachment 6 there were no unplanned releases meeting the requirements of 6.7.2.a.3 of the ODCM.

3.0 DISCUSSION (cont.)
The typical Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) capabilities of the radioactive effluent analysis instrumentation are presented in Attachment 7. These LLD values are based upon conservative conditions (i.e., minimum sample volume and maximum delay time prior to analysis). Actual LLD values may be lower.
If a radioisotope was not detected when effluent samples were analyzed, then the activity of that radioisotope was reported as Not Detectable (N/D) on Attachment 1 of this report. If an analysis for an isotope was not performed, then the activity was reported as Not Applicable (N/A).
4.0 SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION As required by the ODCM, section 6.6.2, evaluation of the Land Use Census is made to determine if new location(s) have been identified for the radiological environmental monitoring program pursuant to the ODCM.
The Land Use Census identified that the owner of the garden at location 14 would cease gardening in October. As a result of dose calculations performed based on Land Use Census data, a new vegetation sampling location, 14a, replaced 14 in October 2008. Its location is shown below. No other changes were made.
Name Designator Distance Direction Degrees Moody Lane 14a 1.70 ESE 1030 Section 6.6.1.b.4 of the ODCM requires identification of the cause(s) for the unavailability of milk or leafy vegetation samples, and the identification of new locations for obtaining replacement samples.
Milk samples, as required by the ODCM, section 6.6.1, were collected from two stations during the period covered by this report. Vegetation samples were not collected from stations 14, 15, 16, 21 and 23 from January through April and from 14a, 15, 16, 21 and 23 during November and December due to seasonal unavailability. All other vegetation samples were obtained. Contains the results of samples associated with ground water protection sampling undertaken at North Anna to voluntarily comply with the Nuclear Energy Institute, NEI, Ground Water Protection Initiative. In addition to the well, river, and surface water samples included as part of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program, North Anna obtained subsurface water samples and soil samples from various locations on the site. contains corrected information for the 2007 annual report. The error was reported in CR 100683. The error involved the amount of Cs-1 37 released on Table 1 B, Mixed Mode Continuous Releases for the First Quarter of 2007. The reported value should have been 1.03E-08 Ci, vice 1.03E-02 Ci. This also affected related information on Table 1A.

DOMINION VPAP-2103N REVISION 14 PAGE 5 OF 88 1.0 PURPOSE The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) establishes requirements for the Radioactive Effluent and Radiological Enviromnental Monitoring Programs. Methodology and parameters are provided to calculate offsite doses resulting from radioactive gaseous and liquid effluents, to calculate gaseous and liquid effluent monitoring alarm/trip setpoints, and to conduct the Environmental Monitoring Program. Requirements are established for the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report and the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report required by Station Technical Specifications. Calculation of offsite doses due to radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents are performed to assure that:
" Concentration of radioactive liquid effluents to the unrestricted area will be limited to ten times the effluent concentration values of 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases and 2E-4.tCi/ml for dissolved or entrained noble gases.
" Exposure to the maximum exposed member of the public in the unrestricted area from radioactive liquid effluents will not result in doses greater than the liquid dose limits of 10 CFR 50, Appendix I
" Dose rate at and beyond the site boundary from radioactive gaseous effluents will be limited to:
Noble gases - less than or equal to a dose rate of 500 mrem/yr to the total body and less than or equal to a dose rate of 3000 mrem/yr to the skin 1131, 1133, and H3, and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days - less than or equal to a dose rate of 1500 mrem/yr to any organ
- Exposure from radioactive gaseous effluents to the maximum exposed member of the public in the unrestricted area will not result in doses greater than the gaseous dose limits of 10 CFR 50, Appendix I, and
" Exposure to a real individual will not exceed 40 CFR 190 dose limits 2.0 SCOPE This procedure applies to the Radioactive Effluent and Environmental Monitoring Programs at North Anna Power Station.

V
= the sample size (in units of mass or volume) 2.22E+06 = the number of disintegrations per minute (dpm) per microcurie Y
= the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable)
= the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide At
= the elapsed time between the midpoint of sample collection and time of counting Typical values of E, V, Y and At should be used in the calculation.
The LLD is an "a priori" (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not a "posteriori" (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.
NOTE 2: A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Before sampling for analyses, each batch shall be isolated, and then thoroughly mixed as the situation permits, to assure representative sampling.

NOTE 4: A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is proportional to the quantity of liquid waste discharged and for which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen that is representative of the liquids released.
NOTE 5: A continuous release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a non-discrete volume, e.g., from a volume of a system that has an input flow during the continuous release.
NOTE 6: To be representative of the quantities and concentrations of radioactive materials in liquid effluents, samples shall be collected continuously in proportion to the rate of flow of the effluent stream. Prior to analyses, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite sample to be representative of the effluent releases.
NOTE 7: Whenever the secondary coolant activity exceeds 10-5 jCi/ml, the turbine building sump pumps shall be placed in manual operation and samples shall be taken and analyzed prior to release. Secondary coolant activity samples shall be collected and analyzed on a weekly basis. These samples are analyzed for gross activity or gamma isotopic activity within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program NOTE 1: The number, media, frequency, and location of samples may'vary from site to site. This table presents an acceptable minimum program for a site at which each entry is applicable.
Local site characteristics must be examined to determine if pathways not covered by this table may significantly contribute to an individual's dose and be included in the sampling program.
NOTE 2: For each and every sample location in Environmental Sampling Locations (Attachment 10),
specific parameters of distance and direction sector from the centerline of the reactor, and additional description where pertinent, shall be provided in Attachment 10. Refer to Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Positions and to NUREG-0133, Preparation of Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications. for Nuclear Power Plant. Deviations are permitted from the required sampling schedule if specimens are unattainable due to hazardous conditions, seasonal unavailability, malfunction of automatic sampling equipment and other legitimate reasons. If specimens are unattainable due to sampling equipment malfunction, every effort shall be made to complete corrective action before the end of the next sampling period. All deviations from the sampling schedule shall be documented in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report pursuant to Step 6.7.1. It is recognized that, at times, it may not be possible or practicable to continue to obtain samples of the media of choice at the most desired location or time. In these instances, suitable alternative media and locations may be chosen for the particular pathway in question and appropriate substitutions made within 30 days in the radiological environmental monitoring program. In lieu of a Licensee Event Report and pursuant to Step 6.7.2, identify the cause of the unavailability of samples for that pathway and identify the new locations for obtaining replacement samples in the next Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report, and include revised figures and tables from the ODCM reflecting the new locations in the report.
DOMINION VPAP-2103N REVISION 14 PAGE 73 OF 88 ATTACHMENT 9 (Page 5 of 5)
Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program NOTE 3: One or more instruments, such as a pressurized ion chamber, for measuring and recording dose rate continuously may be used in place of, or in addition to, integrating dosimeters.
For the purposes of this table, a thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) is considered to be one phosphor; two or more phosphors in a packet are considered as two or more dosimeters.
Film badges shall not be used as dosimeters for measuring direct radiation. The 36 stations are not an absolute number. The number of direct radiation monitoring stations may be reduced according to geographical limitations, e.g., at an ocean site, some sectors will be over water so that the number of dosimeters may be reduced accordingly. The frequency of analysis or readout for TLD systems will depend upon the characteristics of the specific system used and should be selected to obtain optimum dose information with minimal fading.
NOTE 4: Airborne particulate sample filters shall be analyzed for gross beta radioactivity 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or more after sampling to allow for radon and thoron daughter decay. If gross beta activity in air particulate samples is greater than ten times the yearly mean of control samples, gamma isotopic analysis shall be performed on the individual samples.
NOTE 5: Gamma isotopic analysis is the identification and quantification of gamma-emitting radionuclides that may be attributable to effluents from the facility.
NOTE 6: The dose shall be calculated for the maximum organ and age group, using the methodology and parameters in the ODCM.
NOTE 7: If milk sampling cannot be performed, Use item 4.c (Page 3 of 5, Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (Attachment 9)).

Meteorological, Liquid, and Gaseous Pathway Analysis 1.0 METEOROLOGICAL ANALYSIS 1.1 Purpose The purpose of the meteorological analysis was to determine the annual average X/Q and D/Q values at critical locations around the Station for ventilation vent (ground level) and process vent (mixed mode) releases. The annual average X/Q and D/Q values were used to perform a dose pathway analysis to determine both the maximum exposed individual at site boundary and member of the public. The X/Q and D/Q values resulting in the maximum exposures were incorporated into the dose factors in Gaseous Effluent Dose Factors (Attachment 5) and Critical Organ Dose Factors (Attachment 8).
1.2 Meteorological Data, Parameters, and Methodology Onsite meteorological data for the period January 1, 1981, through December 3 1, 1981, were used in calculations. These data included wind speed, wind direction, and differential temperature for the purpose of determining joint frequency distributions for those releases characterized as ground level (e.g., ventilation vent), and those characterized as mixed mode (i.e., process vent). The portions of release characterized as ground level were based on AT158.9ft-28.2ft and 28.2 foot wind data, and the portions characterized as mixed mode were based on AT158.9ft-28.2ft and 158.9 ft wind data.
X/Q's and D/Q's were calculated using the NRC computer code "XOQDOQ - Program for the Meteorological Evaluation of Routine Effluent Releases at Nuclear Power Stations,"
September, 1977. The code is based upon a straight line airflow model implementing the assumptions outlined in Section C (excluding C I a and C I b) of Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water-Cooled Reactors."
The open terrain adjustment factors were applied to the V/Q values as recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.111. The site region is characterized by gentlyrolling terrain so open terrain correction factors were considered appropriate. The ground level ventilation vent release calculations inciuded a building wake correction based on a 15 16 m 2 containment minimum cross-sectional area.
DOMINION VPAP-2103N REVISION 14 PAGE 82 OF 88 ATTACHMENT 13 (Page 2 of 8)
Meteorological, Liquid, and Gaseous Pathway Analysis The effective release height used in mixed mode release calculations was based on a process vent release height of 157.5 ft, and plume rise due to momentum for a vent diameter of 3 in.
with plume exit velocity of 100 ft/sec. Ventilation vent, and vent releases other than from the process vent, are considered ground level as specified in Regulatory Guide 1.111 for release points less than the height of adjacent solid structures. Terrain elevations were obtained from North Anna Power Station Units 1 and 2, Virginia Electric.and Power Company Final Safety Analysis Report Table 11C.2-8.
X/Q and D/Q values were calculated for the nearest site boundary, resident, milk cow, and vegetable garden by sector for process vent and ventilation vent releases at distances specified from North Anna Power Station Annual Environmental Survey Data for 1981. X/Q values were also calculated for the nearest lake shoreline by sector for the process vent and ventilation vent releases.
According to the definition for short term in NUREG-0 133, "Preparation of Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for Nuclear Power Stations," October, 1978, some gaseous releases may fit this category, primarily waste gas decay tank releases and containment purges.
However, these releases are considered long term for dose calculations as past releases were both random in time of day and duration as evidenced by reviewing past release reports.
Therefore, the use of annual average concentrations is appropriate according to NUREG-0 133.
The X/Q and D/Q values calculated from 1981 meteorological data are comparable to the values presented in the North Anna Power Station UFSAR.
1.3 Results The X/Q value that resulted in the maximum total body, skin and inhalation exposure for ventilation vent releases was 9.3E-06 sec/m 3 at a site boundary location 1416 meters SE sector. For process vent'releases, the site boundary X/Q value was 1.2E-06 sec/in 3 at a location 1513 meters S sector. The shoreline X/Q value that resulted in the maximum inhalation exposure for ventilation vent releases was 1.OE-04 sec/m 3 at a location 274 meters NNE sector.
The shoreline X!Q value for process vent was 2.7E-06 sec/m 3 at a location 274 meters NNE sector.
DOMINION VPAP-2103N REVISION 14 PAGE 83 OF 88 ATTACHMENT 13 (Page 3 of 8)
Meteorological, Liquid, and Gaseous Pathway Analysis The original pathway analysis indicated that the maximum exposure from 1131, 1133, and from all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days was through the grass-cow-milk pathway. The D/Q value from ventilation vent releases resulting in the maximum exposure was 2.4E-09 per m 2 at a location 3250 meters N sector. For process vent releases, the D/Q value was 1. 1E-09 per m2 at a location 3250 meters N sector. For tritium, the X/Q value from ventilation vent releases resulting in the maximum exposure for the milk pathway was 7.2E-07 sec/m 3, and 3.9E-07 sec/m 3 for process vent releases at a location 3250 meters N sector.
Analysis using 2003 release data indicates that the most limiting critical organ is the child's thyroid. The location is 1432 meters NE sector. For process vent releases, the D/Q is 1.9E-8.
For tritium releases, the X/Q values at this location are 9.5E-7 for the process vent and 3.9E-6 for the ventilation vents.
2.0 LIQUID PATHWAY ANALYSIS 2.1 Purpose The purpose of the liquid pathway analysis was to determine the maximum exposed member of the public in unrestricted areas as a result of radioactive liquid effluent releases. The analysis includes a determination of most restrictive liquid pathway, most restrictive age group, and critical organ. This analysis is required for Subsection 6.2.
2.2 Data, Parameters, and Methodology Initially, radioactive liquid effluent release data for the years 1979, 1980, and 1981 were compiled from the North Anna Power Station semi-annual effluent release reports. The data for each year, along with appropriate site specific parameters and default selected parameters, were entered into the NRC computer code LADTAP as described in NUREG-0133.

Applicant's. Environmental Report Supplement, North Anna Power Station, Units I and 2,.
March 15, 1972. Dilution factors for aquatic foods, shoreline, and drinking water were set to one. Transit time.calculations were based on average flow rates. All other parameters were defaults selected by the LADTAP computer code.
Beginning in 1997, the activity by nuclide released in the previous year is entered. into the North Anna Power Station liquid pathway critical organ calculations spreadsheet, which calculates the most limiting age group total body and critical organ, This Process is repeated annually.
2.3.
Results Initially, the fish pathway resulted in the largest dose. The critical organ each year was the liver, and the adult and teenage age groups received the same organ dose. However, since the adult.
total body dose was greater than the teen total body dose for each year, the adult-was selected as the most restrictive age group. Beginning in 1997, the most limiting age group forboth total body and critical organ is calculated from the spreadsheet for North Anna Power Station liquid pathway critical organ calculations.

Meteorological, Liquid, and Gaseous Pathway Analysis A
3.0 GASEOUS PATHWAY ANALYSIS 3.1 Purpose A gaseous effluent pathway analysis was performed to determine the location that would result in the maximum doses due to noble gases for use in demonstrating compliance with Steps 6.3.1.a. and 6.3.3.a. The analysis also included a determination of the critical pathway, location of maximum exposed member of the public, and the critical organ for the maximum dose due to 1131, 1133, tritium, and for all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days for use in demonstrating compliancewith requirements in Step 6.3.4.a. 1. In addition, the analysis included a determination of the critical pathway, maximum age group, and sector location of an exposed individual through the inhalation pathway from 1131, 1133, tritium, and particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days to demonstrate compliance with Step 6.3.1.a.
3.2 Data, Parameters, and Methodology Annual average X/Q values were calculated, as described in Section I of this attachment, for the nearest site boundary in each directional sector and at other critical locations beyond the site boundary. The largest X/Q value was determined to be 9.3E-06 sec/mI at site boundary for ventilation vent releases at a location 1416 meters SE direction, and 1.2E-06 sec/m 3 at site boundary for process vent releases at a location 1513 meters S direction. The maximum doses to total body and skin, and air doses for gamma and beta radiation due to noble gases, would be at these site boundary locations. The doses from both release points'are summed in calculations to calculate total maximum dose.
Step 6.3.1.a.2 dose limits apply specifically to the inhalation pathway. Therefore, thelocations and X/Q values determined for maximum noble gas doses can be used to determine the maximum dose from 113 1, 1133, tritium, and for all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days for the inhalation pathway.

Meteorological, Liquid, and Gaseous Pathway Analysis The NRC computer code GASPAR, "Evaluation of Atmospheric Releases," Revised 8/19/77, was run using 1979, 1980 and 1981 North Anna Power Station Gaseous Effluent Release Report data. Doses from 1131, 1133, tritium, and particulates for the inhalation pathway were calculated using the 9.3E-06 sec/m 3 site boundary X/Q. Except for the source term data and the X/Q value, computer code default parameters were used. Results for each year indicated that the critical age group was the child and the critical organ was the thyroid for the inhalation pathway.
The gamma and beta dose factors Kivv, Livv, Mivv, and Nivv in Gaseous Effluent Dose Factors (Attachment 5) were obtained by performing a units conversion of the appropriate dose factors from Table B-1, Regulatory Guide 1.109, Rev. 1, to mrem/yr per Ci/m 3 or mrad/yr per Ci/m 3, and multiplying by the ventilation vent site boundary X/Q value of 9.3E-06 sec/m 3. The same approach was used in calculating the gamma and beta dose factors Kipv, Lipv, Mipv, and Nipv in Gaseous Effluent Dose Factors (Attachment 5) using the process vent site boundary X/Q value of 1.2E-06 sec/in 3.
The inhalation pathway dose factors Pivv and Pipv in Gaseous Effluent Dose Factors (Attachment 5). were calculated using the following equation:
Pi = K'(BR) DFAi(x/Q) (mrem/yr per Curie/sec)
(29-1) where:

DOMINION VPAP-2103N REVISION 14 PAGE 87 OF 88 ATTACHMENT 13 (Page 7 of 8)
Meteorological, Liquid, and Gaseous Pathway Analysis Step 6.3.4.a., requires that the dose to the maximum exposed member of the public from 1131, 1133, tritium, and from all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days be less than or equal to the specified limits. Dose calculations were perfomned for an exposed member of the public within site boundary unrestricted areas, and to an exposed member of the public beyond site boundary at locations identified in the North Anna Power Station Annual Environmental Survey Data for 1981.
It was determined that the member of the public within site boundary would be using Lake Anna for recreational purposes a maximum of 2232 hours0.0258 days <br />0.62 hours <br />0.00369 weeks <br />8.49276e-4 months <br /> per year. It is assumed that this member of the public would be located the entire 2232 hours0.0258 days <br />0.62 hours <br />0.00369 weeks <br />8.49276e-4 months <br /> at the lake shoreline with the largest annual X/Q of 1.OE-04 at a location 274 meters NNE sector. The NRC computer code GASPAR was run to calculate the inhalation dose to this individual. The GASPAR results were corrected for the fractional year the member of the public would be using the lake.
Using the NRC computer code GASPAR and annual average X/Q and D/Q values obtained as described in Section 1 of this attachment, the member of the public receiving the largest dose beyond site boundary was determined to be located 1432 meters N sector. The critical pathway was vegetation, the maximum exposed age group was the child, and the critical organ was the thyroid.
Pathway analysis results indicate that existing pathways, including ground and inhalation, within five miles of North Anna Power Station, yield Ri dose factors less than those determined for the vegetation. [Commitment 3.2.2]
The RMivv and RMipv dose factors, except for tritium, in Critical Organ Dose Factors (Attachment 8) were calculated by multiplying the appropriate D/Q value with the following equation:

Parameters used in the above equation were obtained from NUREG-0 133 and Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1 Since the concentration of tritium in vegetation is based on the airborne concentration rather than the deposition, the Critical Organ Dose Factors (Attachment 8)for tritium were calculated by multiplying the following equation by the appropriate X/Q:

ATTACHMENT 4 MAJOR CHANGES TO RADIOACTIVE LIQUID, GASEOUS. AND SOLID WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS (01/08 - 12/08)
As required by the ODCM, Section 6.7.2.a.4, major changes to radioactive liquid, gaseous and solid waste treatment systems for the time period covered by this report are synopsized in this attachment. Supporting information as to the reason(s) for the change(s) and a summary of the 10 CFR 50.59 evaluations are included, as applicable.
There were no major changes to radioactive gaseous, and solid waste treatment systems for 2008, however, DCP 07-160 resulted in a major change to the radioactive liquid waste treatment system in 2008. The system was replaced in order to reduce particulate effluents in liquid waste. The liquid waste treatment system was replaced under this DCP with a six vessel system consisting of two vessels containing charcoal and four vessels containing resin. The six vessels are 30 ft3 each for a total volume of 180 ft3 with a designed flow rate of 35 gpm. The two charcoal vessels are loaded with Granulated Activated Charcoal, GAC, to remove dirt, turbidity, oil, and colloidal particulate via deep bed filtration. Prior to entering the deep bed filtration vessels a polymer, Nalcolyte 7134 coagulant, is injected into the feed stream to agglomerate colloidal particles for removal. The effluent from these vessels is directed to the vessels containing resin. The four resin vessels are loaded with ion exchange resin to remove radioactive ions from the liquid waste. A portion of the new system was placed in operation in mid 2008, and the entire six vessel system began operation in August 2008. Since the system is designed to perform an enhanced version of the same function as the system it is replacing, the 10CFR50.59 screening determined that no evaluation was required, but a change to the UFSAR describing the new system was required.

INOPERABILITY OF RADIOACTIVE LIQUID AND GASEOUS EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION (01/08-12/08)
As required by the ODCM, Sections 6.2.2.b.2 and 6.3.2.b.3, a list and explanation for extended inoperability of radioactive liquid and/or gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation is provided in this attachment.
1-BR-LT-112B, level transmitter for "B" Boron Recovery Test Tank was out-of-service from 01 January 2008 through 31 December 2008 due to failure of the transmitter. Engineering recommended replacement of the transmitter. DCP-07-118 has been issued to accomplish this work but has not been completed at this time.
The original transmitter for 1-BR-LT-112B is a Foxboro model E17DM-1SM31A and is obsolete. The replacement is a Foxboro model IDP10-AF1601 F/PSFLT-63S0151. There were neither additions to nor discharges from the tank during this period.
