EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

Yankee Nuclear Power Station was permanently shutdown in 1991. All fuel has been transferred into dry storage casks and placed at the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Facility. The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) for the Yankee Nuclear Power Station (YNPS) Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) located in Rowe, MA was continued for the period January through December 2009 in compliance with the YNPS Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM).

No changes were made to the ODCM during 2009. By design, there are no liquid or gaseous effluents associated with the operation of the ISFSI. Therefore, the ODCM only requires monitoring of direct exposure from the facility. TLDs were used to measure direct gamma exposure at six locations in the vicinity of the ISFSI and one control location 7.6 kilometers away.

The results of these measurements showed no significant change in exposure rates and potential doses to members of the public during the monitoring period. The results of the monitoring performed in 2009 also show that operating the YNPS ISFSI results in only a small fraction of the 40 CFR Part 190 direct radiation dose limit of 25 mrem/year to members of the public.

2.0 GENERAL ISFSI AND SITE INFORMATION The Yankee Nuclear Power Station site is located on over 1800 acres in a predominantly rural area of northwestern Massachusetts, three-quarters of a mile south of the Vermont border. The site resides in the town of Rowe, Massachusetts, approximately 9 air miles east-northeast of North Adams, Massachusetts, The surrounding area is heavily forested and lightly populated. Hills bounding the river valley rise 500 to 1000 feet above the site, reaching elevations of 2100 feet.

The Deerfield River is used extensively for hydroelectric power generation both upstream and downstream of YNPS. The Sherman Dam, immediately adjacent to the site, operates as a hydroelectric generating station. Sherman Pond, the impoundment behind this dam, had been used as a source of cooling water for the former power plant.

The former nuclear power plant was voluntarily shut down on October 1,1991 after 31 years of operation. The site was involved in the process of decommissioning over the years which involved the disassembly and removal of the plant components and structures and was completed in.2006. This process took place in strict conformance with USNRC regulations. Oversight of the site closure process also took place from the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection, and Massachusetts Department of Public Health.

3.0 PROGRAM DESIGN The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) for the Yankee Nuclear Power Station ISFSI was designed to provide assurance to regulatory agencies and the public that the station's environmental impact is known and within anticipated limits. The direct dose limit for members of the public from operation of the ISFSI is 25 mrem per year (Reference 3).

The detailed sampling requirements of the REMP are given in the ODCM. The sampling requirements specified in the ODCM are summarized in Table 3.1 of this report. Details of the monitored locations are shown in Table 3.2, as well as Figures 3.1 through 3.3 of this report.

3.1 Monitoring Zones The REMP is designed to allow comparison of levels of radioactivity in samples from the Page 7 of 27

area possibly influenced by the ISFSI to levels found in areas not influenced by the ISFSI.

The first area is called "indicator stations". The second area is called "control stations".

The distinction between the two is based on relative direction from the facility and distance.

Analysis of survey data from the two zones aids in determining if there is a significant difference between the two areas. It can also help in differentiating between radioactivity or radiation due to releases and that due to other fluctuations in the environment, such as seasonal variations in the natural background.

3.2 Pathways Monitored Based on the design of the ISFSI, only the direct radiation exposure pathway is monitored by the REMP. This pathway is monitored by the collection of thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) which are described in more detail below.

3.3 Description of Monitoring Program 3.3.1 Direct Radiation Direct gamma radiation exposure was continuously monitored during 2009 with the use of thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs). At each monitoring location, these TLDs are sealed in plastic bags and attached to an object such as atree, fence or utility pole. The TLDs are posted and retrieved on a quarterly basis. All TLDs are provided and processed by a National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP) certified vendor. The T[Ds.re p*Ia--ed avarious l6c-atio ns around-th-If-dpend--tfSpenf FStF-iStorage Insulation (ISFSI). Table 3.2 lists the Station IDCodes, distances and direction of the TLDs from the ISFSI.

3.3.2 Special Monitoring Special samples can be taken that are not required in the ODCM.*The sample locations do not appear in Table 3.1 or 3.2 of this report. For the monitoring period, no special samples were collected as part of the YNPS ISFSI Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program.

5.0 ANALYSIS OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESULTS 5.1 Sampling Program Deviations A sampling program deviation is defined as samples that are unobtainable due to hazardous conditions or to malfunction of sampling equipment. Such deviations do not compromise the program's effectiveness and in fact are considered insignificant with respect to what is normally anticipated for this Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program.

No deviations of the sampling requirements occurred during this monitoring period.

5.2 Direct Radiation Pathway 5.2.1 -Exposure Rates Direct radiation is continuously measured at 6 indicator locations surrounding the YNPS ISFSI, along with 1 control location at Number Nine Road using thermoluminescent

-dosimeters (TLDs). These dosimeters are collected semi-annually for readout at the NVLAP certified dosimetry services vendor.

Review of the data in Tables 4.2 and 4.3 shows that all indicator locations were slightly elevated in comparison to the control location exposure rates. Figures 4.1 through 4.7 provide exposure rate trends of the monitoring locations since 2003. Review of Figures 4.1 through 4.7 shows no significant difference in exposure rates overtime at either the indicator or control locations. The data listed under each of the trend graphs show values for the result errors and discrimination levels. Note that these values are estimated and are shown only for information.

5.2.2 Direct Doses from ISFSI Operations The ODCM specifies that a cumulative dose estimate from direct radiation is required to be determined semi-annually. This dose estimate is the potential dose to any real member of the public that could use portions of the site or be present adjacent to the site for recreational activities throughout the year. The ODCM states that direct exposure above background can be estimated by subtracting-the average TLD value of the control station from the indicator location measurements. As in previous years, the 2009 dose estimate assumes a total of 500 hours0.00579 days <br />0.139 hours <br />8.267196e-4 weeks <br />1.9025e-4 months <br /> occupancy for the dose calculation; of which 250 hours0.00289 days <br />0.0694 hours <br />4.133598e-4 weeks <br />9.5125e-5 months <br /> are Page 26 of 27

used in both the first and second half-years. The most likely location for exposure to a member of the public from the ISFSI is in Sherman Reservoir for boating and fishing; however, the time estimates are conservatively applied to all monitoring locations.

Table 4.4 -presents the results of the dose calculations. The highest calculated dose is at Station IDnumber GM-1 5. The maximum calculated annual dose at that location is 1.9 mrem. This value is only 8 percent of the 25 mrem per year limit. For reference, this location is less than 800 feet from the ISFSI. This represents a very conservative dose estimate because a member of the public would normally be situated further away in the reservoir.
