Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 HOPE CREEK NUCLEAR GENERATING STATION OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL INTRODUCTION The Hope Creek Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) is a supporting document to the Hope Creek Technical Specifications. The previous Limiting Conditions for Operations that were contained in the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (RETS) are now included in the ODCM as Radiological Effluent Controls (REC). The ODCM contains two parts: Part I - Radiological Effluent Controls, and Part II - Calculational Methodologies.

Part I includes the following:

The Radiological Effluent Controls and the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Programs required by Technical Specifications 6.8.4 Descriptions of the information that should be included in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report and the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report required by Technical Specifications 6.9.1.6 and 6.9.1.7, respectively.

Part II describes methodologies and parameters used for:

the calculation of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluent monitoring instmmentation alarm/trip setpoints; and the calculation of radioactive liquid and gaseous concentrations, dose rates, cumulative quarterly and yearly doses, and projected doses.

Part II also contains a list and graphical description of the specific sample locations for the radiological environmental monitoring program (REMP), and the liquid and gaseous waste treatment systems.

The cutTent licensing basis applies Maximum Permissible Concentrations (MPCs) for radioactive liquid effluent concentration limits. Since the MPC values were removed from 10CFR20 effective 111194, the MPC values are provided as Appendix F to the ODCM. As discussed in the Safety Evaluation By The Office Of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Related to Amendment No.I2l, letters between the Nuclear Management and Resources Council (NUMARC) concerning the differences between the "old" IOCFR20 and the "new" 10CFR20 allowed continued use of the instantaneous release limits (MPCs). The NUMARC letter of April 28, 1993, concluded that the RETS that reference the "old" Part 20 are generally more restrictive than the comparable requirements of the "new" Part 20, and therefore, in accordance with 10 CFR 20.1008, the existing RETS could remain in force after the licensee implements the "new" Part

20. The letter stated that the existing RETS which reference the "old" Part 20 would maintain the level of required protection of public health and safety, and would be consistent with the requirements of the "new" Part 20.

SECTION 1.0 DEFINITIONS Page 8 of 151 Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 1.0 DEFINITIONS The following tenns are defined so that unifonn interpretation of these CONTROLS may be achieved.

The defined tenns appear in capitalized type and are applicable throughout these CONTROLS.

ACTION 1.1 ACTION shall be that part of a CONTROL which prescribes remedial measures required under designated conditions.

CHANNEL CALIBRATION 1.4 A CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall be the adjustment, as necessary, of the channel output such that it responds with the necessary range and accuracy to known values of the parameter that the channel monitors. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall encompass the entire channel, including the required sensor, alann, display, and trip functions, and shall include the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST.

Calibration of instrument channels with resistance temperature detector (RTD) or thennocouple sensors may consist of an in place qualitative assessment of sensor behavior and nonnal calibration of the remaining adjustable devices in the channel. Whenever an RTD or thennocouple sensing element is replaced, the next required CHANNEL CALIBRATION shall include an in place cross calibration that compares the other sensing elements with the recently installed sensing monitor. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION may be perfonned by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps so that the entire channel is calibrated.

CHANNEL CHECK 1.5 A CHANNEL CHECK shall be the qualitative assessment of channel behavior during operation by observation. This detennination shall include, where possible, comparison of the channel indication and/or status with other indications and/or status derived from independent instrument channels measuring the same parameter.

CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST 1.6 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST shall be:

a. Analog channels - the injection of a simulated signal into the channel as close to the sensor as practicable to verify OPERABILITY including alann and/or trip functions and channel failure trips.
b. Bistable channels - the injection of a simulated signal into the sensor to verify OPERABILITY including alann and/or trip functions.

The CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST may be perfonned by any series of sequential, overlapping or total channel steps such that the entire channel is tested.

CONTROL 1.10 The Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCOs) that were contained in the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications were transferred to the OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL (ODCM) and were renamed CONTROLS. This is to distinguish between those LCOs that were retained in the Technical Specifications and those LCOs or CONTROLS that were transferred to the ODCM.

TABLE NOTATION ACTION 110 - With the number of channels OPERABLE less than required by the Minimum Channels OPERABLE requirement, effluent releases via this pathway may continue provided that prior to initiating a release:

a.

At least two independent samples are analyzed in accordance with CONTROL 4.1l.l.l.2, and

b.

At least two technically qualified members of the Facility Staff independently verify the release rate calculations and discharge line valving; Otherwise, suspend release of radioactive effluents via this pathway.

ACTION III - With the number of channels OPERABLE less than required by the Minimum Channels OPERABLE requirement, effluent releases via this pathway may continue provided that, at least once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, grab samples are collected and analyzed for principal gamma emitters, 1-131, and dissolved and entrained noble gases at the lower limits of detection required in ODCM CONTROL Table 4.11.1.1.1-1.B, and the Surveillance Requirement 4.11.1.1.2 is performed. Otherwise, suspend the release of radioactive eft1uents via this pathway.

ACTION 112 - With the number of channels OPERABLE less than required by the Minimum Channels OPERABLE requirement, effluent releases via this pathway may continue provided the flow rate is estimated at least once per 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> during actual releases. Pump performance curves generated in place may be used to estimate flow.

See Appendix A for setpoint dctemlination for the Turbine Building Circulating Water Dewatering Sump (TBCWDWS). Different setpoints are established for this monitor based on its use for batch release or continuous release. Automatic termination of releases from the TBCWDWS is by trip of the sump pump(s). ACTION 110 only applies to batch releases for the TBCWDWS. Continuous releases are not authorized with the TBCWDWS radiation monitor inoperable.

There are no discharge process flow rate measurement devices for this pathway. Conservative assumptions are made for release rates. The maximum release rate from the sump is 100 gpm.

This value should be used for setpoint calculations to determine compliance with CONTROL 3.11.1.1. More realistic values may be used to calculate total activity released and dose consequences. Actual values should be used if process flow measurement devices are installed.

E eVe 2.22E6 eYe exp( -A~t)

LLD is the "a priori" lower limit of detection as defined above, as microcuries per unit mass or volume, 4.66 is the statistical factor from NUREG 1302 Sb is the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate, as counts per minute, E is the counting efficiency, as counts per disintegration, V is the sample size in units of mass or volume, 2.22E6 is the number of disintegrations per minute per microcurie, Y is the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, A is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec-I), and

.M for plant effluents is the elapsed time between midpoint of sample collection and time of counting ( sec).

Typical values ofE, V, Y, and ~t should be used in the calculation.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an f! priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an f! posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 TABLE4.11.1.1.1-1 (Continued)

TABLE NOTATION A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for analyses, each batch shall be isolated, and then thoroughly mixed by a method described in the ODCM to assure representative sampling.

The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD CONTROL applies exclusively are: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, and Ce-141. Ce-144 shall also be measured, but with an LLD of 5 x 10-6. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be considered. Other peaks that are identifiable, together with the above nuclides, shall also be analyzed and reported in the Radioactive Eff1uent Release Report pursuant to CONTROL 6.9.1.7.

A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is proportional to the quantity ofliquid waste discharged and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen that is representative of the liquids released.

A continuous release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a nondiscrete volume; e.g., from a volume of a system that has an input flow during the continuous release.

  • The Turbine Building Circulating Water Dewatering Sump is a normal radwaste discharge pathway and is monitored as such because of possible contamination from the Turbine Building Ventilation drains. Securing the sump pump provides discharge termination. Siphoning does not occur do to the differential height between the sump and the discharge point. Releases from the TBCWDS below the setpoint of 2X background are considered continuous releases. Sampling of continuous releases is performed using a continuous composite sampler. Samples for analyses required in Table 4.11.1.1.1-1 for continuous releases are obtained from the composite sampler.

Releases from the sump at levels at or above 2x background may be performed as batch releases.

Samples for analyses required in Table 4.11.1.1.1-1 for batch releases are obtained from the sump.

    • The grab sample from the Turbine Building Circulating Water Dewatering Sump for dissolved and entrained noble gases is required Monthly from the composite sampler.

Refer to NUREG-0133, "Preparation of Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for Nuclear Power Plants," October 1978, and to Reg. Guide 4.8 as amended by Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position, Revision 1, November 1979. Deviations are permitted from the required sampling schedule if specimens are unobtainable due to circumstances such as hazardous conditions, seasonal unavailability, malfunction of automatic sampling equipment, and other legitimate reasons. If specimens are unobtainable due to sampling equipment malfunction, effort shall be made to complete corrective action prior to 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 CONTROL 6.9.1.6. 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 specific 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 given in the ODCM. Pursuant to CONTROL 6.9.1.7, submit in the next Radioactive Effluent Release Report documentation for a change in the ODCM including revised figure(s) and table for the ODCM reflecting the new location(s) with supporting information identifying the cause of the unavailability of samples for the pathway and justifying the selection of the new location(s) for obtaining samples.

(2) One or more instruments, such as 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 Dosimeter of Legal Record (DLR) 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 for measuring direct radiation. The frequency of analysis or readout for dosimetry systems will depend upon the characteristics of the specific system used and should be selected to obtain optimum dose information with minimal fading. No direct radiation monitoring stations are located in the inner ring sectors 8, 9, 12, 13 and 14 and the outer ring sector 8 as originally determined during plant licensing and as permitted by Reg. Guide 4.8 as amended by The Branch Technical Position Revision 1, November 1979. Sector 7 does not have a direct radiation monitoring station in the outer ring due to inaccessibility.

(3) 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 is greater than ten times the yearly mean of control samples, gamma isotopic analysis shall be performed on the individual samples.

(4) Gamma isotopic analysis means the identification and quantification of gamma-emitting radio nuclides that may be attributable to the effluents from the facility.

TABLE NOTATIONS (5) The "upstream sample" shall be taken at a distance beyond significant influence of the discharge. The "downstream" sample shall be taken in an area beyond but near the mixing zone. "Upstream" samples in an estuary must be taken far enough upstream to be beyond the plant influence. Saltwater shall be sampled only when the receiving water is utilized for recreational activities.

(6) A composite sample is one in which the quantity (aliquot) ofliquid sampled is proportional to the quantity of flowing liquid and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen that is representative of the liquid flow. In this program composite sample aliquots shall be collected at time intervals that are very short relative to the compositing period in order to assure obtaining a representative sample.

(7) Groundwater samples shall be taken when this source is tapped for drinking or irrigation purposes in areas where the hydraulic gradient or recharge properties are suitable for contamination.

(8) The dose shall be calculated for the maximum organ and age group, using the methodology and parameters in the ODCM. Additionally, 2 sample locations are monitored as management audit. Broad leaf vegetation may be obtained in lieu of milk collections.

(9) If harvest occurs more than once a year, sampling shall be performed during each discrete harvest. If harvest occurs continuously, sampling shall be monthly. Attention shall be paid to including samples of tuberous and root food products. The Delaware River at the location of Salem and Hope Creek Nuclear Power Plants is a brackish water source. No irrigation of food products is performed using water in the vicinity from which liquid plant wastes have been discharged. However, 12 management audit food samples are collected from various locations.

(10) No groundwater samples are required as liquid effluents discharged from Salem and Hope Creek Generating Stations do not directly affect this pathway. However for management audit, one raw and one treated ground water sample from the nearest unaffected water supply is required.

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 3/4.3 INSTRUMENTATION BASES 3/4.3.7.10 RADIOACTIVE LIQUID EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION The radioactive liquid effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents during actual or potential releases of liquid effluents.

The alarm/trip setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated and adjusted in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM to ensure that the alarm/trip will occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20. The OPERABILITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60, 63, and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3/4.3.7.11 RADIOACTIVE GASEOUS EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION The radioactive gaseous effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents during actual or potential releases of gaseous effluents. The alarm/trip setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated and adjusted in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM. This will ensure the alarm/trip will occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR Part 20. The OPERABILITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60,63, and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 3/4.11 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES 3/4.11.1 LIQUID EFFLUENTS 3/4.11.1.1 CONCENTRATION This CONTROL is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be less than the concentration levels specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2. This limitation provides additional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water in UNRESTRICTED AREAS will result in exposures within (1) the Section ILA design objectives of Appendix 1,10 CFR Part 50, to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC and (2) the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.1 06(a) to the population. The concentration limit for dissolved or entrained noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radioisotope and its MPC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in International Commission on Radiological Protection (lCRP) Publication 2.

The required detection capabilities for radioactive materials in liquid waste samples are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLDs). Detailed discussion ofthe LLD, and other detection limits can be found in Currie, L. A., "Lower Limit of Detection: Definition and Elaboration of a Proposed Position for Radiological Effluent and Environmental Measurements," NUREG/CR-4007 (September 1984), and the HASL Procedures Manual, HASL-300 (revised annually).

3/4.11.1.2 DOSE This CONTROL is provided to implement the requirements of Sections ILA, liLA, and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The CONTROL implements the guides set forth in Section ILA of Appendix 1. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in liquid effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." Also, for freshwater sites with drinking water supplies that can be potentially affected by plant operations, there is reasonable assurance that the operation of the facility will not result in radionuc1ide concentrations in the finished drinking water that are in excess of the requirements of 40 CFR Part 141. The dose calculation methodology and parameters in the ODCM implement the requirements in Section lILA of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The equations specified in the ODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive materials in liquid effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.113, "Estimating Aquatic Dispersion of Effluents from Accidental and Routine Reactor Releases for the Purposes of Implementing Appendix I," April 1977.

3/4.11.1.3 LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT The OPERABILITY of the liquid Radwaste treatment system ensures that this system will be available for use whenever liquid effluents require treatment prior to their release to the environment. The requirement that the appropriate portions of this system be used, when specified, provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable".

This CONTROL implements the requirements of General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and the design objective given in Section ILD of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the liquid radwaste treatment system were specified as a suitable fraction of the dose design objectives set forth the Section II.A of Appendix 1,10 CFR Part 50, for liquid eft1uents.

3/4.11.2 GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 3/4.11.2.1 DOSE RATE This CONTROL is provided to ensure that the dose at any time at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY from gaseous eft1uents from all units on the site will be within the annual dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20 to UNRESTRICTED AREAS. The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Pati 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 1. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC in an UNRESTRICTED AREA either within or outside the SITE BOUNDARY, to annual average concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table II of 10 CFR Part 20 [10 CFR Part 20.106(b)]. For MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC who may at times be within the SITE BOUNDARY, the occupancy of the individual will usually be sufficiently low to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the SITE BOUNDARY. Examples of calculations for such MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC with the appropriate occupancy factors shall be given in the ODCM. The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY to less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the total body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrem/yr to the skin. These release rate limits also restrict, at all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background to a child via the inhalation pathway to less than or equal to 1500 mrem/year.

The required detection capabilities for radioactive materials in liquid waste samples are tabulated in terms ofthe lower limits of detection (LLDs). Detailed discussion of the LLD, and other detection limits can be found in Currie, L. A., "Lower Limit of Detection: Definition and Elaboration of a Proposed Position for Radiological Eft1uent and Environmental Measurements," NUREG/CR-4007 (September 1984), and the HASL Procedures Manual, HASL-300 (revised annually).

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES 3/4.11.2.2 DOSE - NOBLE GASES This CONTROL is provided to implement the requirements of Section II.B, lILA and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The CONTROL implements the guides set forth in Section II.B of Appendix L The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." The Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in Section lILA of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The dose calculation methodology and parameters established in the ODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive noble gases in gaseous effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. The ODCM equations provided for determining the air doses at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY are based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions.

3/4.11.2.3 DOSE - IODINE-13l, IODINE-133, TRITIUM, AND RADIONUCLIDES IN PARTICULATE FORM This CONTROL is provided to implement the requirements of Section II.C, IILA and IV.A of Appendix 1, 10 CFR Part 50. The CONTROLS are the guides set forth in Section ILC of Appendix L The ACTION statemmts provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in gaseous effluents to UNRERSTRICTED AREAS will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." The ODCM calculational methods specified in Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in Section IILA of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The ODCM calculational methodology and parameters for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of the subject materials are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR 50, Appendix I,"

Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. These equations also provide for determining the actual doses based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions. The release rate controls for iodine-131, iodine-133, tritium, and radionuclides in particulate form with half-life greater than 8 days are dependent on the existing radionuclide pathways to man, in the areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY. The pathways that were examined in the development of these calculations were: 1) individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, 2) deposition of radionuc1ides onto green leafy vegetation with subsequent consumption by man, 3) deposition onto grassy areas where milk animals and meat producing animals graze with consumption of the milk and meat by man, and 4) deposition on the ground with subsequent exposure of man.

3/4.11.2.4 AND 3/4.11.2.5 GASEOUS RADW ASTE TREATMENT AND VENTILATION EXHAUST TREATMENT The OPERABILITY of the GASEOUS RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM and the VENTILATION EXHAUST TREAMENT SYSTEM ensures that the system will be available for use whenever gaseous effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment. The requirement that the appropriate portions of these systems be used, when specified, provides reasonable assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." This CONTROL implements the requirements of General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, and the design objectives given in Section II.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the systems were specified as a suitable fraction of the dose design objectives set forth in Section ILB and II.C of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for gaseous effluents.

3/4.11.2.8 VENTING OR PURGING This CONTROL provides reasonable assurance that releases from drywell venting or purging operations will not exceed the annual dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20 for UNRESTRICTED AREAS.

3/4.11.4 TOTAL DOSE This CONTROL is provided to meet the dose limitations of 40 CFR Part 190 that have now been incorporated into 10 CFR Part 20 by 46 FR 18525 as well as the dose limitations specific to Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) operations in accordance with 10 CFR 72.104. Over the long term, as more storage casks are placed on the ISFSI pads, it is expected that ISFSI operations will become the prominent contributor to the dose limits in this section. ISFSI dose contribution is in the form of direct radiation as no liquid or gas releases are expected to occur. The PSEG 10 CFR 72.212 Report prepared in accordance with 10 CFR 72 requirements assumes a certain array of casks exists on the pads. The dose contribution from this array of casks in combination with historical uranium fuel cycle operations prior to ISFSI operations was analyzed to be within the 40 CFR 190 and 10 CFR 72.104 limits. The CONTROL requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses from plant including the ISFSI radioactive effluents exceed 25 mrem to the total body or any organ, except the thyroid, which shall be limited to less than or equal to 75 mrem. For sites containing up to 4 reactors, it is highly unlikely that the resultant dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC will exceed the dose limits of 40 CFR Part 190 if the individual reactors remain within twice the dose design objectives of Appendix I, and if direct radiation doses from the reactor units including outside storage tanks, etc. are kept small. The Special Report will describe a course of action that should result in the limitation of the annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC to within the 40 CFR Part 190 or 10 CFR 72.104 limits. For purposes of the Special Report, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from other uranium fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contributions from other nuclear fuel cycle facilities at the same site or within a radius of 8 km must be considered. If the dose to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is estimated to exceed the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190 or 10 CFR 72.104, the Special Report with a request for a variance (provided the release conditions resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 or 10 CFR 72.104 have not already been corrected), in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR Part 190 or 10 CFR 72.104 and 10 CFR Part 20.405c, is considered to be a timely request and fulfills the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190 or 10 CFR 72.104 until NRC staff action is completed. The variance only relates to the limits of 40 CFR Part 190 or 10 CFR 72.104, and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose limitation of 10 CFR Part 20, as addressed in CONTROLS 3.11.1.1 and 3.11.2.1. An individual is not considered a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC during any period in which he/she is engaged in carrying out any operation that is pm1 of the nuclear fuel cycle.

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 3/4.12 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING BASES 3/4.12.1 MONITORING PROGRAM The radiological environmental monitoring program required by this CONTROL provides representative measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides that lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program implementsSection IV.B.2 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 and thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and the modeling of the environmental exposure pathways.

Guidance for this monitoring program is provided by the Reg. Guide 4.8 as amended by Radiological Assessment Branch Position on Environmental Monitoring, Revision 1, and November 1979. The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least the first three years of commercial operation. Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The required detection capabilities for environmental sample analyses are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLDs). The LLDs required by Table 4.12.1-1 are considered optimum for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories. It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as an ~ priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an ~

posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.

Detailed discussion of the LLD, and other detection limits can be found in Currie, L. A., "Lower Limit of Detection: Definition and Elaboration of a Proposed Position for Radiological Effluent and Environmental Measurements," NUREG/CR-4007 (September 1984), and the HASL Procedures Manual, HASL-300 (revised annually).

3/4.12.2 LAND USE CENSUS This CONTROL is provided to ensure that changes in the use of areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY are identified and that modifications to the radiological environmental monitoring program are made if required by the results of this census. The best information from the door-to-door survey, from aerial survey, from visual surveyor consulting with local agricultural authorities shall be used. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. Restricting the census to gardens of greater than 50m2 provides assurance that significant exposure pathways via leafy vegetables will be identified and monitored since a garden of this size is the minimum required to produce the quantity (26 kg/year) of leafy vegetables assumed in Regulatory Guide 1.109 for consumption by a child. To determine this minimum garden size, the following assumptions were made: 1) 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegetation (i.e., similar to lettuce and cabbage), and 2) a vegetation yield of 2 kg/m2*

Alarm (and Automatic Termination) - Liquid Radwaste Discharge Line Monitor provides the alarm and automatic tennination of liquid (RE4861) radioactive material releases from the liquid waste management system as required by CONTROL 3.3.7.10.

(2)

Circulating Water Dewatering Sump Discharge Monitor (RE4557) provides alarm and automatic telmination of liquid radioactive releases from the circulating dewatering sump as required by CONTROL 3.3.7.10. Condensation drains from certain supply ventilation units and liquids from the fill and venting of the circulating water side of the condenser waterboxes are directed to this sump. Automatic termination is performed by trip of the sump pumps on high gamma radiation signal.

Alarm (Only) - The Cooling-Tower Blowdown Effluent Monitor (RE8817) provides an Alann function only for releases into the environment as required by CONTROL 3.3.7.10.

Liquid radioactive waste flow diagrams with the applicable, associated radiation monitoring instrumentation and controls are presented in Figure 1-1.

1.2 Liquid Effluent Monitor Setpoint Determination Per the requirements of CONTROL 3.3.7.10, alarm setpoints shall be established for the liquid monitoring instrumentation to ensure that the release concentration limits of CONTRO L 3.11.1.1 are met (i.e., the concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS shall be limited to the concentrations specified in 10 CFR 20 Appendix B. Table II, Column 2, (Appendix F) for radionuclides and 2.0E-04

~Ci/ml for dissolved or entrained noble gases).

The following equation (adopted from NUREG-0133) must be satisfied to meet the liquid effluent restrictions:

C (F + t) c~

(1.1) f where:

C =

the effluent concentration limit of CONTROL 3.11.1.1 implementing the 10 CFR 20 MPC (Appendix F) for the site, in ~lCi/m1.

c =

the setpoint, in ~Ci/ml, of the radioactivity monitor measuring the radioactivity concentration in the effluent line prior to dilution and subsequent release; the setpoint, represents a value which, if exceeded, would result in concentrations exceeding the limits of 10 CFR 20 in the UNRESTRICTED AREA.

the dilution water flow rate as measured prior to the release point, in volume per unit time.

[Note that ifno dilution is provided, c ~ C. Also, note that when (F) is large compared to (f),

then (F + f) = F.]

1.2.1 Liquid Effluent Monitors The setpoints for the liquid effluent monitors at the Hope Creek Generating Station are determined by the following equation:

the background of the monitor (~lCi/ml).

Correction factor to account for non-gamma emitting nuclides and radiation monitor inaccuracies.

The radioactivity monitor setpoint equation (1.2) remains valid during outages when the Cooling-Tower Blowdown discharge is potentially at its lowest value. Reduction of the waste stream flow (RR) may be necessary during these periods to meet the discharge criteria.

Procedural restrictions prevent simultaneous batch liquid releases. The setpoints should be reduced to allow for potential or actual concurrent continuous releases such that the limits of ODCM CONTROL 3.11.1.1 are not exceeded.

Page 76 of 151

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 1.2.2 Conservative Default Values Conservative alarm setpoints for liquid radwaste radiation monitors may be determined through the use of default parameters. Table 1-1 summarizes all current default values in use for Hope Creek. They are based upon the following:

(a) substitution of the effective MPC value with a default value of 4.09E-05 ~lCi/ml for radwaste releases (Refer to Appendix A for justification);

(b) substitutions of the Cooling-Tower Blowdown discharge rate with the minimum average flow, in gal/min; and, (c) substitutions of the effluent release rate with the highest allowed rate, in gal/min.

(d) substitution of a 0.8 correction factor (CF) to account for monitor inaccuracies and non-gamma emitting radionuclides.

The use of the conservative alarm setpoint, or a setpoint below the conservative value, is acceptable provided that the value used is at least as conservative as the release specific setpoint calculated in accordance with Equation 1.2 above. Procedural controls exist to verify the setpoint utilized is at or below what is required.

1.3 Liquid Effluent Concentration Limits - 10 CFR 20 CONTROL 3.11.1.1 limits the concentration of radioactive material in liquid effluents (after dilution in the Cooling-Tower Blowdown Discharge System) to less than the concentrations as specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2 (Appendix F) for radionuclides other than noble gases. Noble gases are limited to a diluted concentration of 2.0E-04 ~lCi/ml.

Release rates are controlled and radiation monitor alarm setpoints are established as addressed above to ensure that these concentration limits are not exceeded. However, in the event any liquid release results in an alarm setpoint being exceeded, an evaluation of compliance with the concentration limits of CONTROL 3.11.1.1 may be performed using the following equation:

where:

RR CTBD =

The radionuclides included in the periodic dose assessment per the requirements of CONTROL 3/4.11.1.2 are those as identified by gamma spectral analysis of the liquid waste samples collected and analyzed per the requirements of CONTROL 3/4.11.1.1, Table 4.11.1.1.1-1.

Radionuclides requiring radiochemical analysis (e.g., Sr-89 and Sr-90) will be added to the dose analysis at a frequency consistent with the required minimum analysis frequency of CONTROL Table 4.11.1.1.1-1.

1.4.2 Simplified Liquid Effluent Dose Calculation In lieu of the individual radionuclide dose assessment as presented in Section 1.4.1, the following simplified dose calculation equation may be used for demonstrating compliance with the dose limits of CONTROL 3.11.1.2.

1.5 Liquid Effluent Dose Projections CONTROL 3.11.1.3 requires that the liquid radioactive waste processing system be used to reduce the radioactive material levels in the liquid waste prior to release when the 31-day projected doses exceed:

- 0.06 mrem to the total body, or

- 0.2 mrem to any organ.

The applicable liquid waste processing system for maintaining radioactive material releases ALARA are the drain filters and demineralizers as delineated in Figure 1-1.

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 1.6 Representative Samples A sample should be representative of the bulk stream or volume of effluent from which it is taken. Prior to sampling, large volumes of liquid waste should be mixed in as short a time interval as practicable to assure that any sediments or particulate solids are distributed uniformly in the waste mixture. Recirculation pumps for liquid waste tanks (collection or sample test tanks) should be capable of recirculating at a rate of not less than two tank volumes in eight hours. Minimum recirculation times and methods of recirculation are controlled by specific plant procedures.

2.0 GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 2.1 Radiation Monitoring Instrumentation and Controls The gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation and controls at Hope Creek for controlling and monitoring normal radioactive material releases in accordance with the Radiological Effluent CONTROLS are summarized as follows:

(1)

(2)

Filtration, Recirculation, and Ventilation System -

The FRVS is maintained in a standby condition. Upon reactor building isolation, the FRVS recirculation system recirculates the reactor building air through HEP A and charcoal filters. Releases are made to the atmosphere via a reactor building vent or the South Plant Vent depending on mode of operation. Noble gas monitoring is provided by RE-4811 A.

South Plant Vent -

The SPV receives discharge from the radwaste evaporator, reactor building purge, auxiliary building radwaste area, condensate demineralizer, pipe chase, feedwater heater, and untreated ventilation sources. Effluents are monitored (for noble gas) by the RE-4875B monitor.

(3)

North Plant Vent-The NPV receives discharge from the gaseous radwaste treatment system (Offgas system) and untreated ventilation air sources. Effluents are monitored (for noble gases) by the RE-4573B monitor.

Gaseous radioactive waste flow diagrams with the applicable, associated radiation monitoring instrumentation controls are presented in Figures 2-1 and 2-2.

Page 81 of 151

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 2.2 Gaseous Effluent Monitor Setpoint Determination 2.2.1 Plant Vent, FRVS Per the requirements of CONTROL 3.3.7.11, alarm setpoints shall be established for the gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation to ensure that the release rate of noble gases does not exceed the limits of CONTROL 3.11.2.1, which corresponds to a dose rate at the SITE BOUNDARY of 500 mrem/year to the total body or 3000 mrem/year to the skin.

Based on a grab sample analysis of the applicable release (i.e., of FRVS, pipe chase, gaseous radwaste treatment system air, etc.), the radiation monitoring alann setpoints may be established by the following calculation method. The measured radionuclide concentrations and release rate are used to calculate the fraction of the allowable release rate, as limited by CONTROL 3.11.2.1, by the equation:

FRAC ~[4.72E +02*% *VF*~(C* K;)]/SOO (2.1)

(2.2) where:

FRAC = fraction of the allowable release rate based on the identified radionuclide XJQ 1.1 4.72E+02 500 3000 concentrations and the release flow rate.

= annual average meteorological dispersion to the controlling site boundary location (sec/m3).

= beta skin dose conversion factor for noble gas radionuclide i (mrem/yr per

~lCi/m3), from Table 2-1

= gamma air dose conversion factor for noble gas radionuclide i (mrad/yr per

~lCi/m3), from Table 2-1

= mrem skin dose per mrad gamma air dose (mrem/mrad)

= conversion factor (cm3/ft3

  • min/sec)

= total body dose rate limit (mrem/yr)

= skin dose rate limit (mrem/yr)

Based on the more limiting FRAC (i.e., higher value) as determined above, the alarm setpoints for the applicable monitors may be calculated by the equation:

SP :::; [ AF * ~ Ci / FRAC ] + bkg (2.3)

Page 82 of 151

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 where:

SP

= alarm setpoint corresponding to the maximum allowable release rate (~tCi/cc).

FRAC = highest fraction of the allowable release rate as determined in equation (2.2).

bkg

= background of the monitor (~tCi/cc).

AF

= administrative allocation factor for the specific monitor (0.2 NPV, 0.2 SPY, 0.1 FRVS).

The allocation factor (AF) is an administrative control imposed to ensure that combined releases from Salem Units 1 and 2 and Hope Creek will not exceed the regulatory limits on release rate from the site (i.e., the release rate limits of CONTROL 3.11.2.1). Normally, the combined AF value for Salem Units 1 and 2 is 0.5 (0.25 per unit), with the remainder 0.5 allocated to Hope Creek. Any increase in AF above 0.5 for the Hope Creek Generating Station will be coordinated with the Salem Generating Station to ensure that the combined allocation factors for all units do not exceed 1.0.

2.2.2 Conservative Default Values A conservative alarm setpoint can be established, in lieu of the individual radionuclide evaluation based on the grab sample analysis, to eliminate the potential of periodically having to adjust the setpoint to reflect minor changes in radionuclide distribution and variations in release flow rate. The alarm setpoint may be conservatively detelmined by the default values presented in Table 2-2.

These values are based upon:

- the maximum ventilation (or purge) flow rate;

- a radionuclide distribution adopted from ANSI N237-1976/ANS 18.1 "Source Term Specifications", Table 5 and;

- an administrative allocation factor of 0.5 to conservatively ensure that any releases from Hope Creek do not exceed the maximum allowable release rate.

For the noble gas radionuclide distribution from ANSI N237-1976/ANS 18.1 (Note Table C-1), the alarm setpoint based on the total body dose rate is more restrictive than the corresponding setpoint based on the skin dose rate.

The resulting conservative, default setpoints are presented in Table 2-2.

2.3 Gaseous Effluent Instantaneous Dose Rate Calculations - 10 CFR 20 2.3.1 Site Boundary Dose Rate - Noble Gases CONTROL 3.11.2.la limits the dose rate at the SITE BOUNDARY due to noble gas releases to:S 500 mrem/yr, total body and :S 3000 mrem/yr, skin. Radiation monitor alarm setpoints are established to ensure that these release limits are not exceeded. In the event any gaseous releases from the station results in an alarm setpoint (as determined in Section 2.2.1) being exceeded, an evaluation of the SITE BOUNDARY dose rate resulting from the release shall be performed using the following equations:

).lCi/m3, from Table 2-1.

mrem skin dose per mrad gamma air dose (mrem/mrad)

As appropriate, simultaneous releases from Salem Units 1 and 2 and Hope Creek will be considered in evaluating compliance with the release rate limits of CONTROL 3.11.2.1 a, following any releases exceeding the above prescribed alarm setpoints. Monitor indications (readings) may be averaged over a time period not to exceed 15 minutes when determining noble gas release rate based on correlation of the monitor reading and monitor sensitivity.

The IS-minute averaging is needed to allow for reasonable monitor response to potentially changing radioactive material concentrations and to exclude potential electronic spikes in monitor readings that may be unrelated to radioactive material releases. As identified, any electronic spiking monitor responses may be excluded from the analysis.

NOTE:

For administrative purposes, more conservative alarm setpoints than those as prescribed above may be imposed. However, conditions exceeding these more limiting alarm setpoints do not necessarily indicate radioactive material release rates exceeding the dose limits of CONTROL 3.11.2.1 a. Provided actual releases do not result in radiation monitor indications exceeding alarm setpoint values based on the above criteria, no further analyses are required for demonstrating compliance with the limits of CONTROL 3.11.2.1 a.

Actual meteorological conditions concurrent with the release period or the default, annual average dispersion parameters as presented in Table 2-3 may be used for evaluating the gaseous effluent dose rate.

Page 84 of 151

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 2.3.2 Site Boundary Dose Rate - Radioiodine and Particulates CONTROL 3.11.2.1b limits the dose rate to:: 1500 mrem/yr to any organ for 1-131,1-133, tritium and particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days. To demonstrate compliance with this limit, an evaluation is performed at a frequency no greater than that corresponding to the sampling and analysis time period (e.g., nominally once per 7 days). The following equation shall be used for the dose rate evaluation:

Do = %

  • L (R io
  • Q i)

Do average organ dose rate over the sampling time period (mrem/yr).

XlQ atmospheric dispersion to the controlling SITE BOUNDARY location for the inhalation pathway (sec/m3).

Rio dose parameter for radionuclide i (mrem/yr per !lCi/m3) and organ 0 for the child inhalation pathway from Table 2-4.

Qi average release rate over the appropriate sampling period and analysis frequency for radio nuclide i - 131, 1-133, tritium or other radionuclide in particulate form with half-life greater than 8 days (!lCi/sec).

By substituting 1500 mrem/yr for Do and solving for Q, an allowable release rate for 1-131 can be detennined. Based on the annual average meteorological dispersion (See Table 2-3) and the most limiting potential pathway, age group and organ (inhalation, child, thyroid -- Ri

= 1.62E+07 mrem/yr per !lCi/m3), the allowable release rate for 1-131 is 34.7 ~lCi/sec.

Reducing this release rate by a factor of 2 to account for potential dose contributions from other radioactive particulate material and other release points (e.g., Salem), the corresponding release rate allocated to Hope Creek is 17.4 ~lCi/sec. For a 7-day period, which is the nominal sampling and analysis frequency for 1-131, the cumulative release is 10.5 Ci.

Therefore, as long as the 1-131 release in any 7-day period do not exceed 10.5 Ci, no additional analyses are needed for verifying compliance with the CONTROL 3.11.2.l.b limits on allowable release rate.

2.4 Noble Gas Effluent Dose Calculations - 10 CFR 50 2.4.1 UNRESTRICTED AREA Dose - Noble Gases CONTROL 3.11.2.2 requires a periodic assessment of releases of noble gases to evaluate compliance with the quarterly dose limits of:: 5 mrad, gamma-air and:: 10 mrad, beta-air and the calendar year limits:: lO mrad, gamma-air and.s 20 mrad, beta-air.

The limits are applicable separately to each generating station and are not combined site limits. The following equations shall be used to calculate the gamma-air and beta-air doses:

Otherwise, the dose will be evaluated based on the predetermined controlling pathways as identified in Table 2-3.

2.6 Gaseous Effluent Dose Projection CONTROL 3.11.2.4 requires that the VENTILATION EXHAUST TREATMENT SYSTEM be used to reduce radioactive material levels prior to discharge when projected doses in 31-days exceed:

- 0.2 mrad to air from gamma radiation, or

- 0.4 mrad to air from beta radiation, or

- 0.3 mrad to any organ of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC The applicable gaseous processing systems for maintaining radioactive material releases ALARA are the Gaseous Radwaste Treatment System and Exhaust Treatment System as delineated in Figures 2-1 and 2-2.

= maximum organ dose to date for current calendar quarter as determined by equation (2.11) or (2.12) (mrem).

d

= number of days in current calendar quarter at the end of the release.

31 d

= the number of days of concern.

3.0 SPECIAL DOSE ANALYSIS 3.1 Doses Due to Activities Inside the SITE BOUNDARY In accordance with Technical Specification 6.9.1.7, the Radioactive Effluent Release Report (RERR) submitted by May 1 st of each year shall include an assessment of radiation doses from radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents to MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC due to their activities inside the SITE BOUNDARY.

The calculation methods as presented in Sections 2.4 and 2.5 may be used for determining the maximum potential dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC located inside the site boundary. For the purpose ofthis calculation, a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is an adult individual who is not subject to occupational exposure (i.e., an un-monitored site worker) performing duties within the site boundary, and who is exposed to radioactive material in gaseous effluent for 2,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> per year via the inhalation and ground plane exposure pathways. The values for the atmospheric dispersion coefficients at the point of interest inside the site boundary (e.g., 0.25 mile) shall be developed from the current year meteorological data.

3.2 Total Dose to MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC - 40 CFR 190 and 10 CFR 72.104 The Radioactive Effluent Release Report (RERR) submitted by May 1 st of each year shall also include an assessment ofthe radiation dose to the likely most exposed MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC for reactor releases and other nearby uranium fuel cycle courses (including dose contributions from effluents and direct radiation from on-site sources). For the likely most exposed MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC in the vicinity of Artificial Island, the sources of exposure need only consider the Salem Generating station and the Hope Creek Generating Station which includes the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI): No other fuel cycle facilities contribute to the MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC dose for the Artificial Island vicinity.

The dose contribution from the operation of Salem Generating Stations will be estimated based on the methods as presented in the Salem Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (SGS ODCM).

As appropriate for demonstrating/evaluating compliance with the limits of CONTROL 3.11.4 (40 CFR 190), the results of the environmental monitoring program may be used for providing data on actual measured levels of radioactive material in the actual pathways of exposure.

3.2.1 Effluent Dose Calculations For purposes of implementing the surveillance requirements of CONTROL 3/4.11.4 and the reporting requirements of6.9.1.7 (RERR), dose calculations for the Hope Creek Generating Station may be performed using the calculation methods contained within the ODCM; the conservation controlling pathways and locations of Table 2-4 or the actual pathways and locations as identified by the land use census (CONTROL 3/4.12.1) may be used. Average annual meteorological Page 89 of lSI

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 dispersion parameters or meteorological conditions concurrent with the release period under evaluation may be used.

3.2.2 Direct Exposure Dose Determination Any potentially significant direct exposure contribution to off-site individual doses may be evaluated based on the results of the environmental measurements (e.g., dosimetry, ion chamber measurements) andlor by the use of a radiation transport and shielding calculation method.

Only during a non-typical condition will there exist any potential for significant on-site sources at Hope Creek that would yield potentially significant off-site doses (i.e., in excess of 1 mrem per year to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC), that would require detailed evaluation for demonstrating compliance with 40 CFR 190 or 10 CFR 72.104. However, should a situation exist whereby the direct exposure contribution is potentially significant, on-site measurements, off*site measurements and/or calculational techniques will be used for determination of dose for assessing 40 CPR 190 or 10 CPR 72.104 compliance.

4.0 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM 4.1 Sampling Program The operational phase of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) is conducted in accordance with the requirements of CONTROL 3.12. The objectives of the program are:

- To determine whether any significant increases occur in the concentration of radio nuclides in the critical pathways of exposure in the vicinity of Artificial Island;

- To determine if the operation of the Hope Creek Generating Station has resulted in any increase in the inventOlY of long lived radio nuclides in the environment;

- To detect any changes in the ambient gamma radiation levels; and

- To verify that HCGS operations have no detrimental effects on the health and safety ofthe public or on the environment.

The sampling requirements (type of samples, collection frequency and analysis) and sample locations are presented in Appendix E.

NOTE: No public drinking water samples or irrigation water samples are taken as these pathways are not directly effected by liquid effluents discharged from Hope Creek Generating Station.

4.2 5.0 Interlaboratory Comparison Program CONTROL 3.12.3 requires analyses be performed on radioactive material supplied as part of an Interlaboratory Comparison. Participation in an approved Interlaboratory Comparison Program provides a check on the preciseness of measurements of radioactive materials in environmental samples. A summary of the Interlaboratory Comparison Program results will be provided in the Annual Radiological Enviromnental Operating Report pursuant to CONTROLS 6.9.1.7.

HCGS EXPLOSIVE GAS MONITORING PROGRAM The Hope Creek Explosive Gas Monitoring program was moved within the Hope Creek Technical Specifications to section 6.8.4.d. This was performed in Technical Specification Amendment 91.

Details of the Hope Creek Explosive Gas Monitoring program are maintained in station Page 90 of 151

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 implementing procedures and are controlled by the 50.59 safety evaluation and procedure processes.

Hope Creek ODCM Rev. 25 APPENDIX A EVALUATION OF DEFAULT MPC VALUES FOR LIQUID EFFLUENTS Page 114 of 151

Hope Creek ODeM Rev. 25 APPENDIX A: Evaluation of Default MPC Value for Liquid Effluent Monitors In accordance with the requirements of CONTROL 3.3.7.l0 the radioactive effluent monitors shall be operable with alarm setpoints established to ensure that the concentration of radioactive material at the discharge point does not exceed the MPC value of 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2 (Appendix F). The determination of allowable radionuclide concentration and corresponding alann setpoint is a function of the individual monitor.

In order to limit the need for routinely having to re-establish the alarm setpoints as a function of changing radionuclide distributions, a default alarm setpoint can be established.

This default setpoint can be based on an evaluation of the radionuclide distribution from the 1997 to 1999 release data of the liquid effluents from Hope Creek and the effective MPC value for this distribution.

The efIective MPC value for a radionuclide distribution is calculated by the equation:

where:

IC(gamma)

MPG=--~i-C-'------

I -~- (gamma) i MPC

= an effective MPC value for a mixture of radionuclides (!lCi/ml)

= concentration of radionuclide i in the mixture (A.I)

= the 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column II MPC value for radionuclide i

(!lCi/ml) Appendix F Considering the average effective MPC values from 1997 thru 1999 releases it is reasonable to select an MPC value of 4.09E-5 ~lCi/ml as typical ofliquid radwaste discharges. This value will be reviewed and adjusted as necessary based on the distribution history of effluents from Hope Creek.

Using the value of 4.09E-5 !lCi/ml to calculate the default alarm setpoint, results in a setpoint that:

(1) Will not require frequent re-adjustment due to minor variations in the nuclide distribution which are typical of routine plant operations, and; (2) Will provide for a liquid radwaste discharge rate (as evaluated for each batch release) that is compatible with plant operations (Refer to Table 1-1).

(1.2)

A correction factor must be applied to the default setpoint calculation in order to account for radiation monitor uncertainties and the contribution of non-gamma emitting radionuclides such as H-3, Sr, and Fe.

a. Radiation Monitor Inaccuracies:

Hope Creek PSBP 311649 lists a total loop accuracy of 30% for the liquid radwaste radiation monitors. A factor of 0.30 is applied to the default setpoint to ensure the trip setpoint is reached before the analytical limit is obtained.

Reactor coolant values were chosen to represent the maximum concentration of non-gamma emitting radionuclides that could be released from Hope Creek station in liquid effluent. The activity values in the table are further diluted by a minimum factor of 68 prior to release to the Delaware River. The minimum dilution factor is obtained by using the minimum cooling tower blowdown flowrate of 12,000 gpm and the maximum release rate of 176 gpm.

A conservative correction factor for non-gamma emitting radionuclides can be obtained by using the highest Activity / MPC fraction and the minimum dilution factor as follows:

Correction Factor (non-gamma) = 34.5 /68 = 0.5 An overall correction factor can be obtained by adding the correction factor for radiation monitor inaccuracies and non-gamma emitting radionuclides as follows:

Overall Correction factor = 0.3 + 0.5 = 0.8 B. Cooling Tower Blowdown Radiation Monitor (RE8817)

The cooling tower blowdown radiation monitor provides an Alarm only function for releases into the environment. The cooling tower blowdown is the final release point for liquid effluents from Hope Creek station to the Delaware River.

Hope Creek aDCM Rev. 25 C. Turbine Building Circulating Water Dewatering Sump Radiation Monitor (RE4557)

The Turbine Building Circulating Water Dewatering Sump Radiation Monitor (RE4557) provides automatic termination ofliquid radioactive releases from the Circulating Water Dewatering Sump.

The sump pumps discharge to the circulating water system to the cooling tower. Plant design and procedures maintain the setpoint at <2 times background radiation levels. Releases from the sump at gamma activity concentrations less than the monitor setpoint are considered continuous releases since inputs to the sump would occur during discharge. Releases of activity above the established continuous release setpoint may be performed on a batch basis following sampling and analysis of the sump contents. Hope Creek calculation SP-0004 established a setpoint for the monitor at l.4E-02 ~lCi/ml based on a postulated release of reactor steam into the sump. Using the MPCe determined for Liquid Radwaste and Cooling Tower Blowdown monitors, a more conservative maximum default value for batch releases can be determined:

Hope Creek ODCM Rev 25 APPENDIX B: Technical Basis for Effective Dose Factors - Liquid Effluent The radioactive liquid effluents from Hope Creek from 1997 through 1999 were evaluated to determine the dose contribution of the radionuclide distribution. This analysis was performed to evaluate the use of a limited dose analysis for determining environmental doses, providing a simplified method of determining compliance with the dose limits of CONTROL 3.11.1.2. For the expected radionuclide distribution of effluent from Hope Creek during 1997 to 1999, the controlling organ is the GI-LLI (Bone dose was controlling in 1997 due to relatively high percentage of Fe-55).

The calculated GI-LLI dose is predominately a function of the Zn-65, Fe-55, and Fe-59 releases.

These radionuclides also contribute the large majority of the calculated total body dose. The results of this evaluation are presented in Table B-1.

For purposes of simplifying the details of the dose calculation process, it is conservative to identify a controlling, dose significant radionuclide and limit the calculation process to the use of the dose conversion factor for this nuclide.

Multiplication of the total release (i.e.,

cumulative activity for all radionuclides) by this dose conversion factor provides for a dose calculation method that is simplified while also being conservative.

For the evaluation of the maximum organ dose, it is conservative to use the Fe-59 dose conversion factor (6.32E5 mremlhr per ~lCi/ml). By this approach, the maximum organ dose will be overestimated since this nuclide has the highest organ dose fraction of all the radionuclides evaluated. For the total body calculation, the Zn-65 dose factor (2.32E5 mremlhr per ~Ci/ml, total body) is the highest among the identified dominant nuclides.

For evaluating compliance with the dose limits of CONTROL 3.11.1.2, the following simplified equations may be used:

Total Body where:

Dtb= 8.35E-04*VOL* Aio*G CTBD Dtb

CTBD Tritium is not included in the limited analysis dose assessment for liquid releases, because the potential dose resulting from normal reactor releases is relatively negligible.

Near Field Dilution Factor The near field dilution factor stems from NUREG-0133, Section 4.3. For plants with cooling towers, such as Hope Creek, a dilution factor is allowed so that the product of the average blowdown flow (in CFS) and the dilution factor is 1000 cfs or less. UFSAR Section 2.2.12 states that the dilution by river flow ranges from 14-to 40-fold in the mixing zone of effluent discharges and that existing cross currents tend to improve this overall dilution. The average minimum cooling tower blowdown for Hope Creek is 1.90E4 GPM (from FSAR 11.2). This converts to 42 CFS. Selecting a dilution factor of 20 (between 14 and 40 from the UFSAR) yields a product of 880 CFS, which is less than the 1000 cfs allowed by NUREG-0133. This near field dilution factor of 20 is inverted to a multiple of 0.05, which is used in the liquid effluent dose calculations.

Hope Creek ODCM Rev 25 APPENDIXC TECHNICAL BASIS FOR EFFECTIVE DOSE FACTORS GASEOUS RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS Page 125 of 151

Hope Creek aDCM Rev 25 APPENDIX C: Technical Basis for Effective Dose Factors - Gaseous Effluents Overview The evaluation of doses due to releases of radioactive material to the atmosphere can be simplified by the use of effective dose transfer factors instead of using dose factors which are radionuclide specific. These effective factors, which are based on typical radionuclide distributions of releases, can be applied to the total radioactivity releases to approximate the dose in the environment. Instead of having to perform individual radionuclide dose analysis only a single multiplication (i.e., Keff, Meff, or Neff times the total quantity of radioactive material releases) would be needed. The approach provides a reasonable estimate of the actual dose while eliminating the need for a detailed calculation technique.

Determination of Effective Dose Factors Effective dose transfer factors are calculated by the following equations:

(C.l)

Where:

Keff

= the effective total body factor due to gamma emissions from all noble gases released.

Ki

= the total body dose factor due to gamma emissions from each noble gas radionuclide i released.

~

= the fractional abundance of noble gas radionuclide i relative to the total noble gas activity.

(L+ 1. 1M!!) = L((L + 1.lMi)* fi)

(C.2) where:

(L + 1.1 Meff) = the effective skin dose factor due to beta and gamma emissions from all noble gases released.

(Li + 1.1 Mi) = the skin dose factor due to beta and gamma emissions from each noble gas radionuclide i released.

Mel! = L(Mi* fi)

Meff Mi released.

= the air dose factor due to gamma emissions from each noble gas radionuclide i Neff = IjNi* fi)

(C.4) where:

Neff

= the effective air dose factor due to beta emissions from all noble gases released.

Ni

= the air dose factor due to beta emissions from each noble gas radionuclide i released.

Nonnally, it would be expected that past radioactive effluent data would be used for the determination of the effective dose factors. However, the noble gas releases from Hope Creek have a short history and with continued excellent fuel performance, has hampered efforts in collecting and detecting appreciable noble gas mixes of radionuclides. So, to provide a reasonable basis for the derivation of the effective noble gas dose factors, the source terms from ANSI N237-1976/ANS-18.1, "Source Term Specifications", Table 5 has been used as representing a typical distribution. The effective dose factors as derived are presented in Table C-1.

Application To provide an additional degree of conservatism, a factor of 0.50 is introduced into the dose calculation process when the effective dose transfer factor is used. This conservatism provides additional assurance that the evaluation of doses by the use of a single effective factor will not significantly underestimate any actual doses in the environment.

For evaluating compliance with the dose limits of CONTROL 3.l1.2.2, the following simplified equations may be used:

Hope Creek ODCM Rev 25 APPENDIX D: Technical Basis for Effective Dose Parameters - Gaseous Effluent The pathway dose factors for the controlling infant age group were evaluated to determine the controlling pathway, organ and radionuclide. This analysis was perfonned to provide a simplified method for determining compliance with CONTROL 3.11.2.3. For the infant age group, the controlling pathway is the grass - cow - milk (glc/m) pathway. An infant receives a greater radiation dose from the glc/m pathway than any other pathway. Of this glc/m pathway, the maximum exposed organ including the total body, is the thyroid, and the highest dose contributor is radionuclide 1-131. The results of this evaluation are presented in Table D-I.

For purposes of simplifying the details of the dose calculation process, it is conservative to identify a controlling, dose significant organ and radionuclide and limit the calculation process to the use of the dose conversion factor for the organ and radionuclide. Multiplication of the total release (i.e., cumulative activity for all radionuclides) by this dose conversion factor provides for a dose calculation method that is simplified while also being conservative.

For the evaluation of the dose commitment via a controlling pathway and age group, it is conservative to use the infant, glc/m, thyroid, 1-131 pathway dose factor (1.67EI2 m2*mrem/yr per /lCi/sec). By this approach, the maximum dose commitment will be overestimated since 1-131 has the highest pathway dose factor of all radionuclides evaluated.

For evaluating compliance with the dose limits of CONTROL 3.11.2.3, the following simplified equation may be used:

Dmax=3.17E -8*W* RI -131*IQi (D.I)

Where:

W X/Q DIQ 3.17E-8 R1-l3l

= 1-131 dose parameter for the thyroid for the identified controlling pathway.

= I.05E12, infant thyroid dose parameter with the grass - cow - milk pathway controlling (m2mrem/yr per ~lCi/sec)

The !,'Tound plane exposure and inhalation pathways need not be considered when the above simplified calculational method is used because of the overall negligible contribution of these PageI3Iof151

Hope Creek ODCM Rev 25 pathways to the total thyroid dose. It is recognized that for some particulate radionuclides (e.g.,

Co-60 and Cs-137), the ground exposure pathway may represent a higher dose contribution than either the vegetation or milk pathway. However, use of the 1-131 thyroid dose parameter for all radionuclides will maximize the organ dose calculation, especially considering that no other radionuclides has a higher dose parameter for any organ via any pathway than 1-131 for the thyroid via the milk pathway.

The location of exposure pathways and the maximum organ dose calculation may be based on the available pathways in the surrounding environment of Hope Creek as identified by the annual land-use census (CONTROL 3.12.2).

Otherwise, the dose will be evaluated based on the predetermined controlling pathways as identified in Table 2-3.

The last four symbols are a location code based on direction and distance from the site center point. The midpoint of a line between Salem Units 1 & 2 containment domes was used as the site center point. Of these, the first two represent each of the sixteen angular sectors of22.5 degrees centered about the reactor site. Sector one is divided evenly by the north axis and other sectors are numbered in a clockwise direction; i.e., 2=NNE, 3=NE, 4=ENE, 5=E, 6=ESE, 7=SE, 8=SSE, 9=S, 10=SSW, 11 =SW, 12=WSW, 13=W, 14=WNW, 15=NW and 16=NNW. The next digit is a letter which represents the radial distance from the plant:

For example; the designation SA-WWA-5Dl would indicate a sample in the SGS and HCGS program (SA),

consisting of well water (WWA), which had been collected in sector number 5, centered at 90' (due east) with respect to the reactor site at a radial distance of3 to 4 miles off-site, (therefore, radial distance D).

The number 1 indicated that this is sampling station # 1 in that particular sector.
