Summary and Conclusions In 2010, the Limerick Generating Station released to the environment through the radioactive effluent liquid and gaseous pathways approximately 73 curies of noble gas, fission and activation products and approximately 51curies of tritium.

The dose from both liquid and gaseous effluents was conservatively calculated for the Maximum Exposed Member of the Public. The results of those calculations and their comparison to the allowable limits were as follows:

mrem Liquid Liver 1.77E-02 Child Aqua PA 8.90E-02 20 mrem The calculated doses, as a result of the radiological effluents released from Limerick, were a very small percentage of the allowable limits.

This report on the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program conducted for the Limerick Generating Station (LGS) by Exelon covers the period 1 January 2010 through 31 December 2010. During that time period, 1133 analyses were performed on 926 samples.

Surface and drinking water samples were analyzed for concentrations of tritium and gamma emitting nuclides. Drinking water samples were also analyzed for concentrations of total gross beta. No fission or activation products were detected. Gross beta activities detected were consistent with those detected in previous years.

Fish (predator and bottom feeder) and sediment samples were analyzed for concentrations of gamma emitting nuclides. No fission or activation products were detected in fish.

Sediment samples collected below the discharge had Cesium-1 37 concentrations that were consistent to those from previous years. No other station produced fission or activation products were found in sediment. The calculated dose to a teenager's skin and whole body was 4.36E-04 mrem and 3.74E-04 mrem, respectively. This dose represents 2.18E-03% and 6.23E-03%, respectively of the 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I dose limits.

1

Air particulate samples were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta and gamma emitting nuclides. Cosmogenic Be-7 was detected at levels consistent with those detected in previous years. No fission or activation products were detected.

High sensitivity 1-131 analyses were performed on weekly air samples. All results were less than the minimum detectable concentration.

Cow milk samples were analyzed for concentrations of 1-131 and gamma emitting nuclides. All 1-131 results were below the minimum detectable concentration. Concentrations of naturally occurring K-40 were consistent with those detected in previous years. No fission or activation products were found.

Broad leaf vegetation samples were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides.

Concentrations of naturally occurring Be-7 and K-40 were detected. Radium-226 was found in eight of 33 samples. Thorium-228 and Th-232 were detected in low concentration just above the MDC (minimum detectable concentration). No activation or fission products were detected.

Environmental gamma radiation measurements were performed quarterly using thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD). Levels detected were consistent with those observed in previous years.

Review of the gamma spectroscopy results from the surface water samples located at the Limerick intake (24S1) and downstream of the 10CFR20.2002 permitted storage area showed no evidence of offsite radionuclide transport from the 2002 permitted storage area.

A review of the TLD data for the nearest residence to the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) indicates no direct dose was received.

A radiological groundwater protection program (RGPP) was established in 2006 as part of an Exelon Nuclear fleetwide assessment of potential groundwater intrusion from the operation of the Station. Well water samples were analyzed for tritium, Sr-90 and gamma emitters. Additionally, a select group of wells had hard-to-detect nuclides and gross alpha and gross beta analyses performed.

Most tritium values were less than the lower limit of detection of 200 pCi/L.

In assessing the data gathered for this report and comparing these results with preoperational data, it was concluded that the operation of LGS had no adverse radiological impact on the environment.

II.

Introduction The Limerick Generating Station (LGS), consisting of two 3,458 MWt boiling water reactors owned and operated by Exelon Corporation, is located adjacent to the Schuylkill River in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. Unit No. 1 went critical on 22 December 1984. Unit No. 2 went critical on 11 August 1989. The site is located in Piedmont countryside, transversed by numerous valleys containing small tributaries that feed into the Schuylkill River. On the eastern river bank elevation rises from approximately 110 to 300 feet mean sea level (MSL). On the western river bank elevation rises to approximately 50 feet MSL to the western site boundary.

A Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) for LGS was initiated in 1971. Review of the 1971 through 1977 REMP data resulted in the modification of the program to comply with changes in the Environmental Report Operating License Stage (EROL) and the Branch Technical Position Paper (Rev.

1, 1979). The preoperational period for most media covers the periods 1 January 1982 through 21 December 1984 and was summarized in a separate report.

This report covers those analyses performed by Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE), Mirion Technologies (Dosimetry Services Division), and Environmental Inc. (Midwest Labs) on samples collected during the period 1 January 2010 through 31 December 2010.

On 6 July 1996 a 10CFR20.2002 permit was issued to Limerick for storage of slightly contaminated soils, sediments and sludges obtained from the holding pond, cooling tower and spray pond systems. These materials will decay to background while in storage. Final disposition will be determined at Station decommissioning.

On 21 July 2008 an ISFSI pad was put into service. The ISFSI is dry cask storage, where spent nuclear fuel is stored.

A.

Objective of the REMP The objectives of the REMP are to:

1.

Provide data on measurable levels of radiation and radioactive materials in the site environs.

2.

Evaluate the relationship between quantities of radioactive material released from the plant and resultant radiation doses to individuals from principal pathways of exposure.

3

B.

Implementation of the Objectives The implementation of the objectives is accomplished by:

1.

Identifying significant exposure pathways.

2.

Establishing baseline radiological data of media within those pathways.

3.

Continuously monitoring those media before and during station operation to assess station radiological effects (if any) on man and the environment.

II1.

Program Description A.

Sample Collection Samples for the LGS REMP were collected for Exelon Nuclear by Normandeau Associates, Inc. (NAI). This section describes the general collection methods used by NAI to obtain environmental samples for the LGS REMP in 2010. Sample locations and descriptions can be found in Tables B-1 and B-2, and Figures B-1 through B-3, Appendix B. The collection procedures used by NAI are listed in Table B-3.

Aquatic Environment The aquatic environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on samples of surface water, drinking water, fish, and sediment.

Two-gallon water samples were collected monthly from continuous samplers located at two surface water locations (1381 and 24S1) and four drinking water locations (15F4, 15F7, 16C2, and 28F3). Control locations were 24S1, and 28F3. All samples were collected in new unused plastic bottles, which were rinsed at least twice with source water prior to collection. Fish samples comprising of the flesh of two groups, catfish/bullhead (bottom feeder) and sunfish (predator), were collected semiannually at two locations, 16C5 and 29C1 (control). Sediment samples composed of recently deposited substrate were collected at three locations semiannually, 1682, 16C4 and 33A2 (control).

Atmospheric Environment The atmospheric environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on samples of air particulate, airborne iodine, and milk. Airborne iodine and particulate samples were collected and analyzed weekly at six locations (6C1, 10S3, 11S1, 13C1, 14S1, and 22G). The control location was 22G1. Airborne iodine and particulate samples were obtained at each location, using a vacuum pump with charcoal and glass fiber filters attached. The pumps were run continuously and sampled air at the rate of approximately one cubic foot per minute. The filters were replaced weekly 4

and sent to the laboratory for analysis.

Milk samples were collected biweekly at five locations (1 0F4, 18E1, 19B1, 23F1, and 25C1) from April through November, and monthly from December through March. One additional location (36E1) was sampled quarterly. Locations 36E1 and 23F1 were controls. All samples were collected in new unused two gallon plastic bottles from the bulk tank at each location, preserved with sodium bisulfite, and shipped promptly to the laboratory.

Broad leaf vegetation was collected monthly at three locations (11S3, 13S3 and 31G1). The control location was 31G1. Ten different kinds of vegetation samples were collected and placed in new unused plastic bags, and sent to the laboratory for analysis.

Ambient Gamma Radiation Direct radiation measurements were made using Panasonic 814 calcium sulfate (CaSO4) thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD). The TLD locations were placed on and around the LGS site as follows:

A site boundary rinq consisting of 16 locations (36S2, 3S1, 5S1, 7S1, 10S3, 11S1, 13S2, 14S1, 18S2, 21S2, 23S2, 25S2, 26S3, 29S1, 31S1 and 34S2) near and within the site perimeter representing fence post doses (i.e., at locations where the doses will be potentially greater than maximum annual off-site doses) from LGS releases.

An intermediate distance rinq consisting of 16 locations (36D1, 2E1, 4E1, 7E1, 1OE1, 10F3, 13E1, 16F1, 19D1, 20F1, 24D1, 25D1, 28D2, 29E1, 31D2, and 34E1) extending to approximately 5 miles from the site designed to measure possible exposures to close-in population.

The balance of eight locations (5H1, 6C1,9C1, 13C1, 15D1, 17B1, 20D1 and 31D1) representing control and special interests areas such as population centers, schools, etc.

The specific TLD locations were determined by the following criteria:

1.

The presence of relatively dense population;

2.

Site meteorological data taking into account distance and elevation for each of the sixteen-22 1/2 degree sectors around the site, where estimated annual dose from LGS, if any, would be most significant;

3.

On hills free from local obstructions and within sight of the vents (where practical);

4.

And near the closest dwelling to the vents in the prevailing downwind direction.

5

Two TLDs - each comprised of three CaSO4 thermoluminescent phosphors enclosed in plastic - were placed at each location in a PVC conduit located approximately three feet above ground level. The TLDs were exchanged quarterly and sent to Mirion Technologies for analysis.

10CFR20.2002 Permit Storagqe Area The results of the surface water sampling program were used to determine if radioactive nuclide transport from the storage area into the Schuylkill River had occurred.

Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSl)

The results from the TLD location 36S2 were used to determine the direct radiation exposure to the nearest residence from the ISFSI pad.

B.

Sample Analysis This section describes the general analytical methodologies used by TBE and Midwest Labs to analyze the environmental samples for radioactivity for the LGS REMP in 2010. The analytical procedures used by the laboratories are listed in Appendix B Table B-3.

In order to achieve the stated objectives, the current program includes the following analyses:

1.

Concentrations of beta emitters in drinking water and air particulates.

2.

Concentrations of gamma emitters in surface and drinking water, air particulates, milk, fish, broad leaf vegetation and sediment.

3.

Concentrations of tritium in surface and drinking water.

4.

Concentrations of 1-131 in air and milk.

5.

Ambient gamma radiation levels at various site environs.

C.

Data Interpretation The radiological and direct radiation data collected prior to LGS becoming operational was used as a baseline with which these operational data were compared. For the purpose of this report, LGS was considered operational at initial criticality. In addition, data were compared to previous years' operational data for consistency and trending. Several factors were important in the interpretation of the data:

1.

Lower Limit of Detection and Minimum Detectable Concentration The lower limit of detection (LLD) was defined as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that would yield a net count (above background) that would be detected with only a 6

5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal. The LLD was intended as a before the fact estimate of a system (including instrumentation, procedure and sample type) and not as an after the fact criteria for the presence of activity. All analyses were designed to achieve the required LGS detection limits for environmental sample analysis.

The minimum detectable concentration (MDC) was defined as above with the exception that the measurement is an after the fact estimate of the presence of activity.

2.

Net Activity Calculation and Reporting of Results Net activity for a sample was calculated by subtracting background activity from the sample activity. Since the REMP measures extremely small changes in radioactivity in the environment, background variations may result in sample activity being lower than the background activity affecting a negative number. An MDC was reported in all cases where positive activity was not detected.

If no positive activity was detected, then gamma spectroscopy MDC results for each type of sample were grouped as follows:

For surface and drinking water twelve nuclides, Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Zr-95, Nb-95, 1-131, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ba-140, and La-140 were reported.

For broad leaf vegetation eleven nuclides, Be-7, K-40, Mn-54, Co-58, Co-60, 1-131, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ra-226, Th-228, and Th-232 were reported.

For fish nine nuclides, K-40, Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, 1-131, Cs-134, and Cs-137 were reported.

For sediment eight nuclides, Be-7, K-40, Mn-54, Co-58, Co-60, 1-131, Cs-134, and Cs-137 were reported.

For air particulate six nuclides, Be-7, Mn-54, Co-58, Co-60, Cs-134, and Cs-137 were reported.

For milk five nuclides, K-40, Cs-1 34, Cs-1 37, Ba-140, and La-140 were reported.

Means and standard deviations of positive results were calculated.

The standard deviations represent the variability of measured results for different samples rather than single analysis uncertainty.

D.

Program Exceptions For 2010 the LGS REMP had a sample recovery rate in excess of 99%.

Exceptions are listed below:

1.

Air sample from location 14S1 for the week 3/22/10 - 3/29/10 was not available due to equipment malfunction (IR 01087252 01).

2.

TLD data from station 29E1 was not available for the 2nd quarter due to the station being vandalized (IR 01087252 04).

3.

Only two vegetation samples were available at station 11S3 and 13S3 for the month of June (IR 01087252 02).

4.

Only two vegetation samples were available at station 13S3 for the month of September (IR 01087252 05).

5.

Weekly grab samples were taken for the composite surface water sampler at location 13B1 during the following periods due to equipment malfunction or frozen sample line (IR 01087252 06):

01/05/10 - 01/12/10 06/28/10 - 07/05/10 07/20/10 - 07/27/10 09/28/10 - 10/05/10 12/07/10 - 12/27/10

6.

8.

A grab sample was taken for the composite drinking water sampler at location 28F3 during the week of 12/29/09 - 01/05/10 due to equipment malfunction (IR 01087252 06).

Each program exception was reviewed to understand the causes of the program exception. Sampling and maintenance errors were reviewed with the personnel involved to prevent recurrence. Occasional equipment breakdowns and power outages were unavoidable.

8

The overall sample recovery rate indicates that the appropriate procedures and equipment are in place to assure reliable program implementation.

E.

Program Changes

1.

Air sampling station 6C1 was added to the REMP program on December 13, 2010 due to the increased population of the nearby shopping center (IR 1074042).

IV.

Results and Discussion A.

Aquatic Environment

1.

Surface Water Samples were taken from a continuous sampler at two locations (13B1 and 24S1) on a monthly schedule. Of these locations only 13B1 located downstream, could be affected by Limerick's effluent releases. The following analyses were performed:

Tritium Monthly samples from all locations were composited quarterly and analyzed for tritium activity (Table C-1.1, Appendix C). All results were less than the MDC.

Gamma Spectrometry Samples from all locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-1.2, Appendix C). All nuclides were less than the MDC.

2.

Drinking Water Monthly samples were collected from continuous water samplers at four locations (15F4, 15F7, 16C2, and 28F3). Three locations (15F4, 15F7, and 16C2) could be affected by Limerick's effluent releases. The following analyses were performed:

Gross Beta Samples from all locations were analyzed for concentrations of total gross beta (Tables C-I1.1, Appendix C). The values ranged from 2.5 to 6.7 pCi/L. Concentrations detected were consistent with those detected in previous years (Figure C-1, Appendix C).

9

Tritium Monthly samples from all locations were composited quarterly and analyzed for tritium activity (Table C-11.2, Appendix C). All results were less than the MDC.

Gamma Spectrometry Samples from all locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-11.3, Appendix C). All nuclides were less than the MDC.

3.

Fish Fish samples comprised of catfish/bullhead (bottom feeder) and sunfish (predator) were collected at two locations (16C5 and 29C1) in the spring and fall season. Location 16C5 could be affected by Limerick's effluent releases. The following analysis was performed:

Gamma Spectrometry The edible portion of fish samples from both locations was analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-111.1, Appendix C).

Naturally occurring K-40 was found at all stations and ranged from 2,640 to 3,920 pCi/kg wet and was consistent with levels detected in previous years. No other gamma emitting nuclides were found.

Historical levels of Cs-1 37 are shown in Figure C-2, Appendix C.

4.

Sediment Aquatic sediment samples were collected at three locations (16B2, 16C4 and 33A2) semiannually. Of these locations two, 16B2 and 16C4, located downstream, could be affected by Limerick's effluent releases. The following analysis was performed:

Gamma Spectrometry Sediment samples from all three locations were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-IV.l, Appendix C). Nuclides detected were naturally occurring Be-7, K-40 and the fission product Cs-137.

Beryllium-7 was found at locations 16B2 and 16C4 and ranged from 1,630 to 3,740 pCi/kg dry. Potassium-40 was found at all locations and ranged from 10,800 to 16,100 pCi/kg dry. The fission product Cs-137 was found at 16B2 and 16C4 locations and ranged from 164 to 166 pCi/kg dry. The Cs-137 activity found at 1682 and 10

16C4 is attributed to LGS radioactive effluent releases. The dose to a teenager's skin and whole body was conservatively calculated at 4.36E-04 mrem and 3.74E-04 mrem, respectively. This dose represents 2.18E-03% and 6.23E-03%, of the Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 dose limits, respectively. The activity detected was consistent with those detected in the pre-operational years.

(Figure C-4, Appendix C). No other Limerick fission or activation products were found.

B.

Atmospheric Environment 1.

Airborne

a.

Air Particulates Continuous air particulate samples were collected from six locations on a weekly basis. The six locations were separated into three groups: Group I represents locations within the LGS site boundary (10S3, 11S1, and 14S1),

Group II represents the locations at an intermediate distance from the LGS site (6C1 and 13C1), and Group III represents the control location at a remote distance from LGS (22G1).

The following analyses were performed:

Gross Beta Weekly samples were analyzed for concentrations of beta emitters (Table C-V.1 and C-V.2, Appendix C).

Detectable gross beta activity was observed at all locations.

The results from the on-site locations (Group I) ranged from 6 E-3 to 35 E-3 pCi/m 3 with a mean of 16.5 E-3 pCi/m 3.

The results from the intermediate distance location (Group II) ranged from 6 E-3 to 31 E-3 pCi/m 3 with a mean of 16 E-3 pCi/m 3. The results from the Distant locations (Group Ill) ranged from 7 E-3 to 32 E-3 pCi/m 3 with a mean of 16 E-3 pCi/m 3. Comparison of the 2010 air particulate data with previous year's data indicate no effects from the operation of LGS (Figure C-4, Appendix C). In addition, a comparison of the weekly mean values for 2010 indicate no notable differences among the three groups (Figure C-5, Appendix C).

Gamma Spectrometry Weekly samples were composited quarterly and analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-V.3, Appendix C).

Naturally occurring Be-7 due to cosmic ray activity was 11

detected in all samples. These values ranged from 47 E-3 to 135 E-3 pCi/m 3. All other nuclides were less than the MDC.

b.

Airborne Iodine Continuous air samples were collected from six locations (6C1, 10S3, 11S1, 14S1, 13C1, and 22G1) and analyzed weekly for 1-131 (Table C-VI.1, Appendix C). All results were less than the MDC.

a.

Milk Samples were collected from five locations (10F4, 18E1, 119B1, 23F1, and 25C1) biweekly April through November and monthly December through March. Samples from one additional location (36E1) were taken quarterly. The following analyses were performed:

Iodine-131 Milk samples from all locations were analyzed for concentrations of 1-131 (Table C-VII.1, Appendix C). All results were less than the MDC.

Gamma Spectrometry Each milk sample was analyzed for concentrations of gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-VII.2, Appendix C).

Naturally occurring K-40 activity was found in all samples and ranged from 1,050 to 1,500 pCi/L. All other nuclides were less than the MDC.

b.

Broad Leaf Vegetation Three types of broad leaf vegetation samples were collected from three locations (11S3, 13S3 and 31 G1) monthly from June through September. The following analysis was performed:

Gamma Spectrometry Each broad leaf vegetation sample was analyzed for concentrations of gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-VIII.1, Appendix C).

12

Cosmogenic Be-7 was found in 17 of 33 samples and ranged from 124 to 2,150 pCi/kg wet. Naturally occurring K-40 was found in all samples and ranged from 3,420 to 9,930 pCi/kg wet. All other nuclides were less than the MDC.

C.

Ambient Gamma Radiation Ambient gamma radiation levels were measured utilizing Panasonic 814 (CaSO4) thermoluminescent dosimeters. Forty TLD locations were established around the site. Results of TLD measurements are listed in Tables C-IX.1 to C-IX.3, Appendix C.

All TLD measurements were below 10 mR/standard month, with a range of 4.9 to 9.8 mR/standard month. A comparison of the Site Boundary and Intermediate Distance data to the Control Location data, indicate that the ambient gamma radiation levels from the Control Location 5H1 were consistently higher than all other locations except 13S2. Location 13S2 historically shows higher ambient gamma radiation, which is assumed due to the rock substrate. The area that this TLD is located in has been determined to emanate radon prodingy.

The historical ambient gamma radiation data from Location 5H1 were plotted along with similar data from the Site, Intermediate Distance and Outer Ring Locations (Figure C-6, Appendix C). Location 5H1 has a historical high bias, but tracked with the data from all three groups. This bias is most likely due to radon emanating from the ground.

D.

10 CFR 20.2002 Permit Storage Area The results of the surface water aquatic monitoring program from Location 24S1 were used to determine if radioactivity from the permit storage area had made it to the Schuylkill River. The data obtained from the gamma analysis program did not detect any migration of radioactivity from the permit storage area.

E.

Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation The result of the ambient gamma radiation level at TLD location 36S2 was used to determine the direct radiation exposure to the nearest residence from the ISFSI pad. The data, after subtracting background, shows the net direct radiation exposure to the nearest residence was zero mrem.

F.

Land Use Survey A Land Use Survey conducted in September 2010 around Limerick Generating Station (LGS) was performed by Normandeau Associates, Inc.

for Exelon Nuclear to comply with Bases 3.3.2 of the Limerick's Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The purpose of the survey was to document 13

the nearest resident, milk producing animal and garden of greater than 500 ft2 in each of the sixteen 22 1/2 degree sectors around the site. The gardens in the N, ENE, E, and SW sectors are closer than in 2009. The distance and direction of all locations from the LGS reactor buildings were positioned using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology. There were no changes required to the LGS REMP, as a result of this survey.

The results of this survey are summarized below.

Summary of Results - Inter-laboratory Comparison Program The primary and secondary laboratories analyzed Performance Evaluation (PE) samples of air particulate, air iodine, milk, soil, vegetation and water matrices for 18 and 14 analytes, respectively (Appendix E). The PE samples, supplied by Analytics Inc., Environmental Resource Associates (ERA) and DOE's MAPEP, were evaluated against the following pre-set acceptance criteria:

1.

Analytics Evaluation Criteria Analytics' evaluation report provides a ratio of TBE's result and Analytics' known value. Since flag values are not assigned by Analytics, TBE-ES evaluates the reported ratios based on internal QC requirements, which are based on the DOE MAPEP criteria.

2.

ERA Evaluation Criteria ERA's evaluation report provides an acceptance range for control and warning limits with associated flag values. ERA's acceptance limits are established per the USEPA, NELAC, state specific PT program requirements or ERA's SOP for the Generation of Performance Acceptance Limits, as applicable. The acceptance 14

limits are either determined by a regression equation specific to each analyte or a fixed percentage limit promulgated under the appropriate regulatory document.

3.

DOE Evaluation Criteria MAPEP's evaluation report provides an acceptance range with associated flag values.

The MAPEP defines three levels of performance: Acceptable (flag =

"A"), Acceptable with Warning (flag = "W"), and Not Acceptable (flag = "N"). Performance is considered acceptable when a mean result for the specified analyte is +/- 20% of the reference value.

Performance is acceptable with warning when a mean result falls in the range from +/- 20% to +/- 30% of the reference value (i.e., 20% <

bias < 30%). If the bias is greater than 30%, the results are deemed not acceptable.

For the primary laboratory, 16 out of 18 analytes met the specified acceptance criteria. Two analytes did not meet the specified acceptance criteria for the following reason:

1. Teledyne Brown Engineering's ERA November 2010 Sr-89 in water result of 77.8 pCi/L was higher than the known value of 68.5 pCi/L, resulting in a found to known ratio of 1.14. NCR 10-09 was initiated to investigate this failure. Since the ratio of 1.14 fell within an acceptance range of 20%, Teledyne considers this an acceptable result.
2. Teledyne Brown Engineering's ERA November 2010 Zn-65 in water result of 11.0 pCi/L was lower than the known value of 102 pCi/L.

NCR 10-09 was initiated to investigate this failure. The Zn-65 result of 111 was incorrectly reported as 11.0.

For the secondary laboratory, Environmental, Inc., all analytes met the specified acceptance criteria.

The Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program provides evidence of "in control" counting systems and methods, and that the laboratories are producing accurate and reliable data.

During that time period, 481 analyses were performed on 76 samples from 15 groundwater and 7 surface water locations collected from the environment, both on and off station property in 2010.

There were no spills that could affect the ground water monitoring program in 2010.

Tritium was not detected in any of the groundwater or surface water samples at concentrations greater than the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) drinking water standard (and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Reporting Limit) of 20,000 pCi/L. Low levels of tritium were detected at two of the 15 groundwater monitoring locations. The tritium concentrations ranged from 238 to 1,320 pCi/L.

Strontium-90 was not detected in either the groundwater or surface water samples.

Gross Alpha and Gross Beta analyses in the dissolved and suspended fractions performed on groundwater surface water samples during the second sampling in 2010. Gross Alpha (dissolved) was detected at 5 of 15 groundwater locations.

The concentrations ranged from 2.9 to 6.2 pCi/L. Gross Alpha (suspended) was detected at 8 of 15 groundwater and 2 of 7 surface water locations. The concentrations ranged from 1.1 to 60.0 pCi/L. Gross Beta (dissolved) was detected at 14 of 15 groundwater and all 7 surface water locations. The concentrations ranged from 2.1 to 38.5 pCi/L. Gross Beta (suspended) was detected at 11 of 15 groundwater and 5 of 7 locations. The concentrations ranged from 1.7 to 124.0 pCi/L.

Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected in either groundwater or surface water samples.

Hard-To-Detect analyses were performed on a select group of groundwater locations to establish background levels. The analyses included Fe-55, Ni-63, Am-241, Cm-242, Cm-243/244, Pu-238, Pu-239/240, U-233/234, U-235 and U-238. The isotopes of U-233/234, and U-238 were detected at four of six groundwater monitoring locations. The U-233/234 concentrations ranged from 1.4 to 2.7 pCi/L and the U-238 concentrations ranged from 0.8 to 1.2 pCi/L. The levels detected are considered background.

All other hard-to-detect nuclides were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective MDCs.

Although no drinking water pathway is available from groundwater, the dose via the drinking water pathway was calculated at 0.08 mrem to a child (total body),

which was 1.30% of the 10 CFR 50, Appendix I dose limit.

In assessing all the data gathered for this report, it was concluded that the operation of Limerick Generating Station had no adverse radiological impact on the environment offsite of LGS.

II.

Introduction The Limerick Generating Station (LGS), consisting of two 3458 MWt boiling water reactors owned and operated by Exelon Corporation, is located adjacent to the Schuylkill River in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. Unit No. 1 went critical on 22 December 1984. Unit No. 2 went critical on 11 August 1989. The site is located in Piedmont countryside, transversed by numerous valleys containing small tributaries that feed into the Schuylkill River. On the eastern river bank elevation rises from approximately 110 to 300 feet mean sea level (MSL). On the western river bank elevation rises to approximately 50 feet MSL.

This report covers those analyses performed by Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE) on samples collected in 2010.

In 2006, Exelon instituted a comprehensive program to evaluate the impact of station operations on groundwater and surface water in the vicinity of Limerick Generating Station. This evaluation involved numerous station personnel and contractor support personnel.

A.

Objective of the RGPP The long-term objectives of the RGPP are as follows:

1. Identify suitable locations to monitor and evaluate potential impacts from station operations before significant radiological impact to the environment and potential drinking water sources.
2. Understand the local hydrogeologic regime in the vicinity of the station and maintain up-to-date knowledge of flow patterns on the surface and shallow subsurface.
3. Perform routine water sampling and radiological analysis of water from selected locations.
4. Report new leaks, spills, or other detections with potential radiological significance to stakeholders in a timely manner.
5. Regularly assess analytical results to identify adverse trends.
6. Take necessary corrective actions to protect groundwater resources.

B.

Implementation of the Objectives The objectives identified have been implemented at Limerick Generating Station as discussed below:

1.

Exelon and its consultant identified locations as described in the 2006 Phase 1 study. The Phase 1 study results and conclusions 3

were made available to state and federal regulators in station specific reports.

2.

The Limerick Generating Station reports describe the local hydrogeologic regime. Periodically, the flow patterns on the surface and shallow subsurface are updated based on ongoing measurements.

3.

Limerick Generating Station will continue to perform routine sampling and radiological analysis of water from selected locations.

4.

Limerick Generating Station has implemented new procedures to identify and report new leaks, spills, or other detections with potential radiological significance in a timely manner.

5.

Limerick Generating Station staff and consulting hydrogeologist assess analytical results on an ongoing basis to identify adverse trends.

C.

Program Description Samples for the ongoing ground water monitoring program were collected for Exelon Nuclear by Normandeau Associates, Inc. (NAI). This section describes the general collection methods used to obtain environmental samples for the LGS RGPP in 2010. Sample locations can be found in Table A-i, Appendix A.

1.

Sample Collection Groundwater and Surface Water Samples of both groundwater and surface water were collected, managed, transported and analyzed in accordance with approved procedures following EPA methods. Sample locations, sample collection frequencies and analytical frequencies were controlled in accordance with approved station procedures. Contractor and/or station personnel were trained in the collection, preservation A

management, and shipment of samples, as well as in documentation of sampling events. Analytical laboratories were subject to internal quality assurance programs, industry cross-check programs, as well as nuclear industry audits. Station personnel reviewed and evaluated all analytical data deliverables as data were received.

4

Both station personnel and an independent hydrogeologist reviewed analytical data results for adverse trends or changes to hydrogeologic conditions.

D.

Characteristics of Tritium (H-3)

Tritium (chemical symbol H-3) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. The most common form of tritium is tritium oxide, which is also called "tritiated water." The chemical properties of tritium are essentially those of ordinary hydrogen.

Tritiated water behaves the same as ordinary water in both the environment and the body. Tritium can be taken into the body by drinking water, breathing air, eating food, or absorption through skin. Once tritium enters the body, it disperses quickly and is uniformly distributed throughout the body. Tritium is excreted primarily through urine with a clearance rate characterized by an effective biological half-life of about 14 days. Within one month or so after ingestion, essentially all tritium is cleared. Organically bound tritium (tritium that is incorporated in organic compounds) can remain in the body for a longer period.

Tritium is produced naturally in the upper atmosphere when cosmic rays strike air molecules. Tritium is also produced during nuclear weapons explosions, as a by-product in reactors producing electricity, and in special production reactors, where the isotopes lithium-7 and/or boron-10 are activated to produce tritium.

Like normal water, tritiated water is colorless and odorless. Tritiated water behaves chemically and physically like non-tritiated water in the subsurface, and therefore tritiated water will travel at the same velocity as the average groundwater velocity.

Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12.3 years. It decays spontaneously to helium-3 (3He). This radioactive decay releases a beta particle (low-energy electron). The radioactive decay of tritium is the source of the health risk from exposure to tritium. Tritium is one of the least dangerous radionuclides because it emits very weak radiation and leaves the body relatively quickly. Since tritium is almost always found as water, it goes directly into soft tissues and organs. The associated dose to these tissues is generally uniform and is dependent on the water content of the specific tissue.

Program Description A.

Sample Analysis This section describes the general analytical methodologies used by TBE to analyze the environmental samples for radioactivity for the Limerick Generating Station RGPP in 2010.

In order to achieve the stated objectives, the current program includes the following analyses:

1.

Concentrations of tritium in groundwater and surface water.

2.

Concentrations of Gross Alpha, Dissolved and Suspended and Gross Beta, Dissolved and Suspended in groundwater and surface water.

3.

Concentrations of gamma emitters in groundwater and surface water.

4.

Concentrations of strontium in groundwater and surface water.

5.

Concentrations of Am-241 in groundwater.

6.

Concentrations of Cm-242 and Cm-243/244 in groundwater.

7.

Concentrations of Pu-238 and PU-239/240 in groundwater.

8.

Concentrations of U-233/234, U-235 and U-238 in groundwater.

9.

Concentrations of Fe-55 in groundwater.

10.

Concentrations of Ni-63 in groundwater.

B.

Data Interpretation The radiological data collected prior to Limerick Generating Station becoming operational were used as a baseline with which these operational data were compared. For the purpose of this report, Limerick Generating Station was considered operational at initial criticality. Several factors were important in the interpretation of the data:

1.

Lower Limit of Detection and Minimum Detectable Concentration The lower limit of detection (LLD) is defined as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that would yield a net count (above background) that would be detected with only a 6

5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal. The LLD is intended as a before the fact estimate of a system (including instrumentation, procedure and sample type) and not as an after the fact criterion for the presence of activity. All analyses were designed to achieve the required LGS detection capabilities for environmental sample analysis.

The minimum detectable concentration (MDC) is defined above with the exception that the measurement is an after the fact estimate of the presence of activity.

2.

Laboratory Measurements Uncertainty The estimated uncertainty in measurement of tritium in environmental samples is frequently on the order of 50% of the measurement value.

Statistically, the exact value of a measurement is expressed as a range with a stated level of confidence. The convention is to report results with a 95% level of confidence. The uncertainty comes from calibration standards, sample volume or weight measurements, sampling uncertainty and other factors. Exelon reports the uncertainty of a measurement created by statistical process (counting error) as well as all sources of error (Total Propagated Uncertainty or TPU). Each result has two values calculated.

Exelon reports the TPU by following the result with plus or minus +

the estimated sample standard deviation, as TPU, that is obtained by propagating all sources of analytical uncertainty in measurements.

Analytical uncertainties are reported at the 95% confidence level in this report for reporting consistency with the AREOR.

C.

Background Analysis A pre-operational radiological environmental monitoring program (pre-operational REMP) was conducted to establish background radioactivity levels prior to operation of the Station. The environmental media sampled and analyzed during the pre-operational REMP were atmospheric radiation, fall-out, domestic water, surface water, aquatic life, and foodstuffs. The results of the monitoring were detailed in the report entitled, Pre-operational Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program Report, Limerick Generating Station Units 1 and 2, 1 January 1982 through 21 December 1984, Teledyne Isotopes and Radiation Management Corporation.

7

The pre-operational REMP contained analytical results from samples collected from both surface water and groundwater.

Monthly surface water sampling began in 1982, and the samples were analyzed for tritium as well as other radioactive analytes. During the preoperational program tritium was detected at a maximum concentration of 420 pCi/L, indicating that these preoperational results were from nuclear weapons testing and is radioactively decaying as predicted.

Gamma isotopic results from the preoperational program were all less than or at the minimum detectable concentration (MDC) level.

1.

Background Concentrations of Tritium The purpose of the following discussion is to summarize background measurements of tritium in various media performed by others. Additional detail may be found by consulting references.

a.

Tritium Production Tritium is created in the environment from naturally occurring processes both cosmic and subterranean, as well as from anthropogenic (i.e., man-made) sources. In the upper atmosphere, "Cosmogenic" tritium is produced from the bombardment of stable nuclides and combines with oxygen to form tritiated water, which will then enter the hydrologic cycle. Below ground, "lithogenic" tritium is produced by the bombardment of natural lithium present in crystalline rocks by neutrons produced by the radioactive decay of naturally abundant uranium and thorium. Lithogenic production of tritium is usually negligible compared to other sources due to the limited abundance of lithium in rock. The lithogenic tritium is introduced directly to groundwater.

A major anthropogenic source of tritium and strontium-90 comes from the former atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Levels of tritium in precipitation increased significantly during the 1950s and early 1960s, and later with additional testing, resulting in the release of significant amounts of tritium to the atmosphere. The Canadian heavy water nuclear power reactors, other commercial power reactors, nuclear research and weapons production continue to influence tritium concentrations in the environment.

b.

Precipitation Data Precipitation samples are routinely collected at stations 8

around the world for the analysis of tritium and other radionuclides. Two publicly available databases that provide tritium concentrations in precipitation are Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP) and USEPA's RadNet database. GNIP provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected world wide since 1960. RadNet provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected at stations through out the U.S. Based on GNIP data for sample stations located in the U.S. Midwest, tritium concentrations peaked around 1963. This peak, which approached 10,000 pCi/L for some stations, coincided with the atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Tritium concentrations in surface water showed a sharp decline up until 1975 followed by a gradual decline since that time.

Tritium concentrations have typically been below 100 pCi/L since approximately 1980. Tritium concentrations in wells may still be above the 200 pCi/L detection limit from the external causes described above. Water from previous years was naturally captured in groundwater. As a result, some well water sources today are affected by the surface water from the 1960s that contained elevated tritium activity.

c.

Surface Water Data Tritium concentrations are routinely measured in the Schuylkill and Delaware Rivers. Pennsylvania surface water data are typically less than 100 pCi/L.

The USEPA RadNet surface water data typically has a reported 'Combined Standard Uncertainty' of 35 to 50 pCi/L.

According to USEPA, this corresponds to a +/-70 to 100 pCi/L 95% confidence bound on each given measurement.

Therefore, the typical background data provided may be subject to measurement uncertainty of approximately +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L.

The radioanalytical laboratory is counting tritium results to an Exelon specified LLD of 200 pCi/L. Typically, the lowest positive measurement will be reported within a range of 40 -

240 pCi/L or 140 +/- 100 pCi/L. Clearly, these sample results cannot be distinguished as different from background at this concentration.

IV.

Results and Discussion Gamma spectroscopy results for groundwater and surface water sample were reported for twelve nuclides (Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Nb-95, Zr-95, I-131, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ba-140 and La-140).

A.

Groundwater Results Samples were collected from onsite wells throughout the year in accordance with the station radiological groundwater protection program.

Analytical results and anomalies are discussed below.

Tritium Samples from fifteen locations were analyzed for tritium activity (Table B-1.1, Appendix B). Tritium values ranged from non detectable to 1,320 pCi/L. Well MW-LR-9 had the highest value of 1,320 pCi/L. Although no drinking water pathway is available from groundwater, the theoretical dose via the drinking water pathway was calculated at 0.08 mrem to a child (total body), which represents 1.30% of the 10 CFR 50, Appendix I dose limit of 6 mrem.

Strontium No Sr-90 activity was detected in any of the ground water samples analyzed (Table B-1.1, Appendix B).

Gross Alpha and Gross Beta (dissolved and suspended)

Gross Alpha and Gross Beta analyses in the dissolved and suspended fractions were performed on groundwater surface water samples during the second sampling in 2010. Gross Alpha (dissolved) was detected in 5 of 15 groundwater locations. The concentrations ranged from 2.9 to 6.2 pCi/L. Gross Alpha (suspended) was detected in 8 of 15 groundwater locations. The concentrations ranged from 1.1 to 60.0 pCi/L. Gross Beta (dissolved) was detected in 14 of 15 groundwater locations. The concentrations ranged from 2.1 to 38.5 pCi/L. Gross Beta (suspended) was detected in 11 of 15 groundwater locations. The concentrations ranged from 1.7 to 124.0 pCi/L (Table B-1.1, Appendix B).

Gamma Emitters Potassium-40 was detected at four of 15 groundwater locations with a range of 77 to 136 pCi/L. No other gamma emitting nuclides were detected (Table B-1.2, Appendix B).

10

Hard-To-Detect Hard-To-Detect analyses were performed on a select group of groundwater locations to establish background levels. The analyses included Fe-55, Ni-63, Am-241, Cm-242, Cm-243/244, Pu-238, Pu-239/240, U-233/234, U-235 and U-238. The isotopes of U-233/234 and U-238 were detected at four of six groundwater monitoring locations. The U-233/234 concentrations ranged from 1.4 to 2.7 pCi/L and the U-238 concentrations ranged from 0.8 to 1.2 pCi/L (Table B-1.3, Appendix B).

The concentrations detected are considered background.

All other hard-to-detect nuclides were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective MDCs.

B.

Surface Water Results In accordance with the Station's radiological groundwater protection program surface water samples were collected from streams that transverses the site, as well as, from other water bodies that could influence the tritium concentration at Limerick. Analytical results and anomalies are discussed below.

Tritium Samples from nine locations were analyzed for tritium activity. Tritium activity was detected in station SW-LR-8 at a concentration of 196 pCi/Liter (Table B-11.1, Appendix B).

Strontium No Sr-90 activity was detected in any of surface water samples analyzed (Table B-11.1, Appendix B).

Gross Alpha and Gross Beta (dissolved and suspended)

Gross Alpha and Gross Beta analyses in the dissolved and suspended fractions were performed on surface water samples during the second sampling in 2010. Gross Alpha (dissolved) was not detected in any surface water locations. Gross Alpha (suspended) was detected at 2 of 7 surface water locations. The concentration ranged from 1.3 to 1.9 pCi/L.

Gross Beta (dissolved) was detected at all surface water locations. The concentrations ranged from 2.6 to 25.7 pCi/L. Gross Beta (suspended) was detected at 5 of 7 surface water location. The concentration ranged from 1.8 to 6.5 pCi/L (Table B-11.1, Appendix B).

11

Gamma Emitters No gamma emitting nuclides were detected (Table B-I1.2, Appendix B).

C.

Drinking Water Well Survey A drinking water well survey was conducted during the summer 2006 by CRA (CRA 2006) around the Limerick Generating Station. CRA reviewed the Pennsylvania Groundwater Information System database to identify wells within a 1-mile radius from the center of the Station. Forty-six domestic withdrawal wells, two industrial wells, two commercial wells, and one institutional well were identified within the specified radius. The well depths range from 78 to 345 feet blow ground surface (bgs), and they yield between 8 and 100 gallons per minute (gpm). All wells are completed in the Brunswick Formation.

The Station has one potable supply well and one fire water well. The potable supply well is constructed as an open-rock borehole. Groundwater was measured at a depth 102 feet bgs during a well pump replacement in 2004 (personal communication with Station, 2006). The pump was placed at a depth of approximately 294 feet bgs. The total well depth and the depth of the steel casing are unknown. The well is located approximately 175 feet east of the Reactor Building. The Station estimates that the well is pumped at approximately 2 gpm. The fire water well is constructed as an open-rock borehole. Groundwater was encountered at 121 feet bgs during a well pump replacement in 2004. The well pump was placed at a depth of approximately 399 feet bgs. The total well depth and the depth of the steel casing are unknown. The well is located approximately 500 feet east of the cooling towers. The well is used only in an emergency fire situation; therefore, water use is estimated to be zero.
