ENCLOSURE KEWAUNEE POWER STATION (KPS)
LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Regulatory Basis:
Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50, Numerical Guides For Design Objectives and Limiting Conditions For Operation to Meet the Criterion As Low As Reasonably Achievable For Radioactive Material in Light-Water Cooled Nuclear Power Reactor Effluents, which contains dose criteria for radioactive gaseous effluents.
Issue:
The applicants Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report for 2008 contains Table 2.4, Annual Radioactive Effluent Report - 2008 Dose from Gaseous Effulents. Table 2.4 contains dose information for gaseous effluents that classifies the dose as being to the whole body and the skin. This is inconsistent with Section II.B.1 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50, which specifies the dose from gaseous effluents is an Air Dose.
Please clarify what the dose values apply to in Table 2.4.
