The LLD is defined, for purposes of these commitments, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample with 95% probability of detection and 'with 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

LLD 4.66 Sb E x V x 2.22 x Y x exp (-XA t)
Where:
LLD is the lower limit of detection as defined above (as pCi per unit mass or volume)
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) 16.11.6-6 05/31/12 1
Radiological Environmental Monitoring 16.11.6 Table 16.11.6-2 Maximum Values for the Lower Limits of Detection (LLD) (a) (c)
E is the counting efficiency (as counts per disintegration)
V is the sample size (in units of mass or volume) 2.22 is the number of disintegrations per minute per picocurie Y is the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable)
X is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide A t is the elapsed time between sample collection (or end of the sample collection period) and time of counting Typical values of E, V, Y and A t should be used in the calculation.
The LLD is defined as an a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as a posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement.
Analyses shall be performed in such a manner that the stated LLDs will be achieved under routine conditions. Occasionally background fluctuations, unavoidably small sample sizes, the presence of interfering nuclides, or other uncontrollable circumstances, may render these LLDs unachievable. In such cases, the contributing factors will be identified and described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.
(b)
LLD for gamma isotopic analysis for 1-131 in drinking water samples. Low level 1-131 analysis on drinking water will not be routinely performed because the calculated dose from 1-131 in drinking water at all locations is less than 1 mrem per year. Low level 1-131 analyses will be performed if abnormal releases occur which could reasonably result in > 1 pCi/liter of 1-131 in drinking water. For low level analyses of 1-131 an LLD of 1 pCi/liter will be achieved.
(c)
Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the radionuclides in Table 16.11.6-2, shall be identified and reported.

16.11.6-8 05/31/12 I
Radiological Environmental Monitoring 16.11.6 BASES The environmental monitoring program required by this commitment provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program 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 modeling of exposure pathways. 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 detection capabilities required by Table 16.11.6-2 are considered optimum for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories. The specified lower limits of detection correspond to less than the 10 CFR 50. Appendix I, design objective dose-equivalent of 45 mrem/year for atmospheric releases to the most sensitive organ and individual. The land use census commitment is provided to assure that changes in the use of unrestricted areas are identified and that modifications to the monitoring program are provided if required by the results of this census.
The requirements for participation in an Interlaboratory Comparison Program is provided to assure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental sample matrices are performed as part of a quality assurance program for environmental monitoring in order to demonstrate that the results are reasonably valid.
With the level of radioactivity in an environmental sampling medium at a specified location exceeding the reporting levels of Table 16.11.6-3 when averaged over any calendar quarter, in lieu of a Licensee Event Report, prepare and submit to the Commission within 30 days a Special Report that defines the corrective action to be taken to reduce radioactive effluents so that the potential annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is less than the calendar year limits of SLC 16.11.1 or SLC 16.11.2. When more than one of the radionuclides in Table 16.11.6-3 are detected in the sampling medium, this report shall be submitted if concentration (1) + concentration (2) +... > 1.0 reporting level (1) reporting level (2)
When radionuclides other than those in Table 16.11.6-3 are detected and are the result of plant effluents, this report shall be submitted if the potential annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from all radionuclides is equal to or greater than the calendar year limits of SLC 16.11.1 or SLC 16.11.2. This report is not required if the measured level of radioactivity was not the result of plant effluents; however, in such an event, the condition shall be reported and described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report required by Technical Specification 5.6.2. The methodology and parameters used to estimate the potential annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC shall be indicated in the 30-day Special Report.
