9 I Nuclear Power Generation SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 Humboldt Bay REVISION 25 EFFEC DATE 4-1-14 Power Plant PAGE i TITLE APPROVED BY SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONI[NG ORIGINAL SIGNED 3-28-14 OFFSITE DOSE, CALCULATION MANUAL DIRECTOR/PLANT MANAGER / DATE C CUHB NUCLEAR (Procedure Classification - Quality Related)

INTRODUCTION The SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING Off-site Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) is provided to support implementation of the Humboldt Bay Power Plant (HBPP) Unit 3 radiological effluent controls and radiological environmental monitoring. The ODCM is divided into two parts, Part I -

Specifications and Part II - Calculational Methods and Parameters.

Part I contains the specifications for liquid and gaseous radiological effluents (RETS) developed in accordance with NUREG-0473, Draft RadiologicalEffluent Technical Specifications - B WR, by License Amendment Request (LAR) 96-02 and the radiological environmental monitoring program (REMP). Both the RETS and the REMP were relocated from the Technical Specifications by LAR 96-02 in accordance with the provisions of Generic Letter 89-01, Inplementation of Programmatic Controlsfor RadiologicalEffluent Technical Specifications in the Admninistrative Controls Section of the Technical Specifications and the Relocation of ProceduralDetailsof RETS to the Offsite Dose CalculationManual or to the Process Control Program,issued by the NRC in January, 1989.

Implementation of the LAR revised the instantaneous liquid concentration limits based on "old" 10 CFR 20 maximum permissible concentrations (MPCs) to 10 times the "new" 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Colunm 2 effluent concentration limits (ECLs) and replaced the gaseous effluent instantaneous concentration limits at the site boundary with annual dose rate limits equating to the doses associated with the annual average concentrations of "old" 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 1. The LAR also established limits for doses to members of the public from radiological effluents based on the as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) design objectives of 10 CFR 50, Appendix I as applicable to a nuclear power plant which has been shut down in excess of 20 years and is in Decommnissioning. These dose limits were established following the guidance of NUREG-0133, Preparationof RadiologicalEffluent Technical Specificationsfor Nuclear Power Plants, and NUREG-0473. This guidance was modified, as appropriate, to reflect the decommissioning licensing basis contained in the HBPP SAFSTOR Decomnmissioning Plan, the Environmental Report submitted as Attachment 6 to the HBPP SAFSTOR licensing amendment request and NUREG- 1166, HBPPFinal EnvironmentalStatement.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTORIDECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE ii The ODCM contains the requirements for the REMP. This program consists of monitoring stations and sampling programs based on the SAFSTOR Decommissioning Plan and the Envirornental 14 Report which established baseline conditions for soil, biota and sediments. The REMP also includes requirements to participate in an interlaboratory comparison program. As of December 31, 2013, HBPP ceased liquid radioactive effluent discharges via the discharge canal to Humboldt Bay. The scope of the REMP and interlaboratory comparison program are the dosimeters and air samples required to evaluate the direct radiation and gaseous effluents from HBPP.

Part II of the ODCM contains the calculational methods developed, following the above guidance, to be used in determining the dose to members of the public resulting from routine radioactive effluents 414 eleased from HBPP during the decommissioning period. Part II also contains the methodology used to determine gaseous effluent monitor alarm/trip setpoints which assure that releases of radioactive materials remain within specified concentrations. Part II of the ODCM contains the calculational methods for liquid effluents to preserve site specific data although that discharge pathway has been terminated.

The ODCM also contains the Process Control Program (PCP) for solid radioactive wastes, administrative controls regarding the content of the Annual Radiological Enviromnental Monitoring Program Report, administrative controls regarding the content of the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report, and administrative controls regarding major changes to radioactive waste treatment systems.

The ODCM shall become effective after review by the Plant Staff Review Committee and approval by the Plant Manager. Changes to the ODCM shall be documented and records of reviews performed shall be retained. This documentation shall contain sufficient information to support the change (including analyses or evaluations), and a determination that the change will maintain the required level of radioactive effluent control and not adversely impact the accuracy or reliability of effluent, dose, or setpoint calculations.

Changes shall be submitted to the NRC in the form of a complete and legible copy of the entire ODCM as part of, or concurrent with, the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report for the period of the report in which any change to the ODCM was made. Each change shall be identified by markings in the margin of the affected pages, clearly indicating the area of the page that was changed.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 1-9 2.2 RADIOACTIVE GASEOUS EFFLUENT MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION' LIMITING CONDITIONS 2.2.1 The radioactive gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation channels shown in Table 2-3 shall be OPERABLE with their alarm/trip setpoints set to ensure that the limits of specification 2.6 are not exceeded for gaseous releases through the plant stack.

APPLICABILITY: Whenever the ventilation system is in operation.

ACTION:

a. With a radioactive gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation channel alarm/trip setpoint less conservative than required above, suspend work that could result in the release of radioactive gaseous effluents monitored by the affected channel, or change the setpoint so that it is acceptably conservative, or declare the channel inoperable.
b. With one or more radioactive gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation channels inoperable, take the ACTION shown in Table 2-3. For the instrumentation covered, exert best efforts to return the inoperable instrument(s) to OPERABLE status within 30 days. If the affected instrument(s) cannot be returned to OPERABLE status within 30 days, provide information on the reasons for inoperability and lack of timely colrective action in the next Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

The Continuous Alpha Monitor may be secured to replace the filter paper cassette without declaring the Stack Particulate Airborne Monitoring System inoperable.

The Particulate Sampler may be secured to replace the filter without declaring the Stack Particulate Airborne Monitoring System inoperable.

4/14 Performing the Semiannual SPAM Calibration procedures RCP-1 9 and RCP- 19A require declaring the Stack Particulate Airborne Monitoring System INOPERABLE.

The NRC classifies effluent monitoring as either liquid or gaseous. With the removal of the spent fuel to the ISFSI, the remaining significant radioactive source at Humboldt Bay Power Plant is particulate carrying alpha contamination, potentially released to the environment through the "gaseous" air flow of the ventilation system, in unlikely events including the failure of the HEPA filters. There is no significant gaseous activity, per se. Thus PG&E's "gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation" is actually particulate alpha monitoring, and is commonly referred to as the Stack Particulate Alpha Monitor or Stack Particulate Alpha Monitoring System or SPAMS in most PG&E documentation.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTORIDECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 1-10 SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS 2.2.2 Each radioactive gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation channel shall be demonstrated OPERABLE by performance of the CHANNEL CHECK, SOURCE CHECK, CHANNEL CALIBRATION and CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST operations at the frequencies shown in Table 2-4 when gaseous effluent releases are occurring through the plant stack.

Table Notation ACTION A The continuous alpha monitor may be taken out of service for calibration or maintenance, but shall be returned to service as soon as practicable within the 30 day period allowed by ACTION 2.2.1 .b. If the continuous alpha monitor becomes inoperable, place any current work in a safe condition, then suspend work that could result in the release of radioactive gaseous effluents monitored by the affected channel.

ACTION B The particulate sampler may be taken out of service for calibration or maintenance, but shall be returned to service as soon as practicable within the 30 day period allowed by ACTION 2.2.1 .b. If the particulate sampler becomes inoperable, secure ventilation, place any current work in a safe condition, then suspend work that could result in the release of radioactive gaseous effluents monitored by the affected channel.

ACTION C With the number of channels OPERABLE less than that required by the Minimum Channels OPERABLE requirement, effluent releases via this pathway may continue for up to 30 days provided samples are continuously collected as required in Table 2-6.

ACTION D With the number of channels OPERABLE less than that required by the Minimum Channels OPERABLE requirement, the effluent system default flow rate may be used for effluent calculations.

2 The Humboldt Bay Power Plant's SPAMS consists of a shrouded sample nozzle assembly and sample line designed to meet ANSI N13.1-1999, requirements, feeding an MGP ABPM201S skid, where the sample stream is split, and feeds both a continuous near real time particulate alpha monitor, referred to as the Continuous Alpha Monitor, and a Particulate Sampler, referred to as such.

a. Tritium and radioactive particulates with half-lives of greater than 8 days:

less than or equal to 1500 mrem/year to any organ.

APPLICABILITY: At all times.

ACTION:

With dose rate(s) exceeding the above limit, without delay decrease the dose rate to within the above limit(s).

SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS 2.6.2 Stack monitoring and modular ventilation monitoring is not required for noble gases because the spent fuel (noble gas source term) has been transferred to the ISFSI.

2.6.3 The dose rate limit for Tritium in gaseous effluents is not likely to be exceeded, as explained in BASES section 3.5. Tritium monitoring is not required in gaseous effluents.

2.6.4 Radioactive particulates, with half-lives of greater than 8 days, in gaseous effluents released to the environment shall be sampled and analyzed in accordance with the sampling and analysis program of Table 2-6, and their concentrations shall be compared with the limits of 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 1. IF their concentrations exceed those limits, the calculational methods in Part II of the ODCM shall be used to determine whether or not the limits of Specification 2.6.1 have been exceeded. The actual sample period shall be used to determine the dose rate during the sample period.

, = the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide At = the elapsed time between sample collection (or end of the sample collection period) and time of counting The value of Sb used in the calculation of the LLD for a detection system will be based on the actual observed variance of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of the blank samples (as appropriate) rather than on an unverified theoretically predicted variance. In calculating the LLD for a radionuclide detennined by gamma ray spectrometry, the background will include the typical contributions of other radionuclides normally present in the samples.

Analyses will 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 Monitoring Program Report.

Typical values of E, V, Y and t should be used in the calculation. It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as 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.

The alarm setpoints for these instruments are calculated in accordance with Part II of the ODCM to ensure that the alarm will occur prior to exceeding a radioactive material concentration corresponding to garmna and beta dose rates above background to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY of less than or equal to 500 mrero/year to the total body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin. 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.

3.2 Liquid Effluent Concentration Basis

((4-141 Deleted - Liquid effluents are no longer discharged to Humboldt Bay.

3.3 Liquid Effluent Dose Basis discharged to Humboldt Bay.

4/1i4 Deleted - Liquid effluents are no longer 3.4 Liquid Effluent Treatment Basis 14/-14 Deleted - Liquid effluents are no longer discharged to Humboldt Bay.

3.5 Gaseous Effluents Dose Rate Basis This specification provides 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 in excess of the design objectives of Appendix I to 10 CFR 50. The annual dose rate limits are the doses associated with the annual average concentrations of "old" 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Colunm 1. The specification provides operational flexibility for releasing gaseous effluents to satisfy the Section II.A and II.C design objectives of Appendix I to 10 CFR 50.

For a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC who may at times be within the SITE BOUNDARY, the period of occupancy (which is bounded by the maximum occupational period while working in Units 1 or 2) will be sufficiently low to compensate for the reduced atmospheric dispersion of gaseous effluents relative to that for the SITE BOUNDARY. 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 mreml/year

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 1-34 to the skin. This specification does not affect the requirement to comply with the annual limitations of 10 CFR 20.1301 (a).

The only tritium source term is the spent fuel pool water, which evaporates and is released from the stack as moisture in the air. The spent fuel pool water has a Tritium concentration below lx 10- 4 micro-Curies/ml, and air at 100 'F, saturated with moisture, can not hold more than 5x10- 5 grams of moisture per cc. Therefore, it is unlikely that the Tritium concentration in the gaseous effluent could exceed 5x I0-9 micro-Curies/cc. This is well below the 10CFR20 Effluent Concentration Limit of 1x10 7 micro-Curies/cc, which corresponds to a dose of 50 mnrern/year, so it is not necessary to monitor for Tritium in the plant stack effluent stream.

3.6 Deleted Stack monitoring is not required for noble gases because the spent fuel (noble gas source term) has been transferred to the iSFSI.

3.7 Deleted 3.8 Gaseous Effluents: Tritium and Radionuclides in Particulate Form Dose Basis This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.C, III.A, and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The Limiting Conditions for Operation are the guides set forth in Section II.C of Appendix I. 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 materials in gaseous effluent will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable" (ALARA). The calculational methods specified in the Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in Section III.A 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.

4/14 The basis for the dose calculation threshold of 0.1 uCi alpha emission or Sr-90 in a week assumes a continuous ground level release of 1.65E-13 uCi/sec and a X/Q of 6.59E-3 sec/m 3 . The limiting inhalation dose is to a teen age member of the public at the site boundary at approximately 0.3 mreln/wk (15 mrem/yr) to the bone from alpha emitters.

Compliance with this Specification has been established on a licensing basis by the SAFSTOR Environmental Report and NUREG- 1166, "Final Environmental Statement for Decommissioning Humboldt Bay Power Plant." These reports have demonstrated that routine release of Tritium and radioactive materials in particulate form (with half-lives greater than 8 days) in gaseous effluents during decommissioning will not cause the Specification to be exceeded. As long as routine releases do not exceed the baseline

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 1-35 quantities evaluated in these reports, no further dose calculation is necessary. Also, the ventilation system has since been modified to provide a full flow HEPA filtration system, significantly reducing routine particulate stack releases.

The only tritium source term is the spent fuel pool water, which evaporates and is released from the stack as moisture in the air. The spent fuel pool water has a Tritium concentration below lx10"4 micro-Curies/ml, and an evaporation rate less than 50 gallons per day, so the routine Tritium release rate is below 7 milli-Curies/year. Using this value, the equations in section 4.3.9 through 4.3.13 calculate a maximum annual dose of 1.08 x 10- milli-rem/year, so it is not necessary to calculate doses for Tritium in the plant stack effluent stream.

3.9 Solid Radioactive Waste Basis This Specification ensures that radioactive wastes that are transported from the site shall meet the solidification requirements specified by the burial ground licensee of the respective states to which the radioactive material will be shipped. It also implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a and General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3.10 Total Dose Basis This specification 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. The specification requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses from plant radioactive effluents exceed twice the design objective doses of Appendix I. 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 limits. For the 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, the Special Report with a request for a variance (provided the release conditions resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 have not already been corrected), in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR part 190.11 and 10 CFR Part 20.2203a4, is considered to be a timely request and fulfills the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190 until NRC staff action is completed. The variance only relates to the limits of 40 CFR Part 190 and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose limitation of 10 CFR Part 20, as addressed in Specifications 2.3, 2.4, 2.6, 2.7 and 2.8. 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 part of the nuclear fuel cycle.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 1-36 3.11 REMP Monitoring Program Basis The quality-related portion of the REMP satisfies the requirements in 10 CFR Parts 20, 50, and 72.44(d) that radiological environmental monitoring programs be established to provide data on measurable levels of radiation and radioactive materials in the site environs. It is required to provide assurance that the baseline conditions established by the Environmental Report are not deteriorating and it supplements the SAFSTOR Environmental Report baseline environmental conditions by conducting onsite and offsite environmental monitoring to evaluate routine conditions during decommissioning and to document any increased nuclide concentrations and/or radiation levels resulting from accidents during decommissioning.

The SAFSTOR Environmental Report, submitted to the NRC as Attachment 6 to the SAFSTOR license amendment request, established baseline conditions for soil, biota and sediments.

The LLD's required by Table 2-9 are considered optimum for routine environmental 4/14 measurements in industrial laboratories. HBPP no longer includes water, milk, fish, food products, or sediment in its routine REMP sampling program. Sampling and analysis in support of the License Termination Plan is independent of the ODCM requirements.

3.12 REMP Interlaboratory Comparison Program Basis The requirement for participation in an Interlaboratory Comparison Program is provided to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental sample matrices are performed as part of the quality assurance program for environmental monitoring in order to demonstrate that the results are reasonably valid.

3.13 Radioactive Waste Inventory Basis The requirements for limits on the accumulation of liquid radioactive waste in outdoor tanks were transferred from the license Technical Specifications.

RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING REPORT ANNUAL

SUMMARY

a The LLD is defined as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95 percent probability with only 5 percent probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

LLD is defined as the a priori lower limit of detection (as pCi per unit mass or volume) representing the capability of a measurement system and not as the a posteriori (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement. (Current literature defines the LLD as the detection capability for the instrumentation only, and the MDA, minimum detectable concentration, as the detection capability for a given instrument, procedure and type of sample.) The actual MDA for these analyses was at or below the LLD.

b The mean and the range are based on detectable measurements only. The fraction of detectable measurements at specified locations is indicated in parentheses; e.g., (10/12) means that 10 out of 12 samples contained detectable activity. The range of detected results is indicated in brackets; e.g., [23-34].

C Tritium samples taken 10/24/97 and 11/18/97 were analyzed to a lower than normal LLD of 200 pCi/I.

Not Required - not required by the HBPP Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. Baseline environmental conditions for this parameter were established in the Environmental Report as referenced by the SAFSTOR Decommissioning Plan.

N/A - Not applicable Note: The example data are based on the 1997 monitoring results and are provided for illustrative purposes only.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-2 1.2 UNRESTRICTED AREA GASEOUS EFFLUENT CONCENTRATIONS AND STACK MONITOR SETPOINTS 1.2.1 Equation C-4 of Regulatory Guide 1.109 demonstrates how to calculate dose from inhalation:

The annualdose associatedwith inhalation Qf all radionuclides,to organj of an individual in age group a, is then:

Dja(r,O) = Ra Yxi(r,0)DFAija where Dja is the annual dose rate to organj of an individualin age group a Ra is the breathing ratefor age group a xi(r,O) is the annual average ground-level concentrationof nuclide i in air in 3

sector 0 at distance r, in pCi/mi DFAija is the dosefactorfor nuclide i to organj of age group a To calculate xi(r,)) the annual average ground-level concentration of nuclide i in air in sector 0 at distance r, in pCi/m 3 the equation must be rearranged to:

Dja(r,0)/( DFAijaRa)= xi(r,0)

Assuming that:

Americium-241 is the primary nuclide The maximally exposed group is the Teen based on breathing rates and DFAija The DFAija to the bone of a Teen from Am-241 is 1.77 mrem/pCi The DFAija are taken from: NRC NUREG/CR-4013, "LADTAP-JI Technical Reference and User Guide" The Teen breathing rate is 8000 m 3/year

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-3 Therefore the ground-level concentration of Am-241 in air in sector 0 at distance r, in pCi/mr3 that will produce a dose rate of 1500 mrem/year to the bone of a Teen is:

3 3 (1500 mreem/year) / (1.77 mrem/pCi) / (8000 in /year) = 1.06E-1 pCi/ m 3

1.06E- 1pCi/ n (1.06E-1 pCi/m 3 ) / (1E6 pCi /[tCi) / (1E6 ml/rn 3) = 1.06E-13 jaCi/ml 1.2.2 Quantity of radioactive material released Equation C-3 of Regulatory Guide 1.109 demonstrates how to calculate the quantity of material that must be released to produce a given airborne concentration:

The annual average airborneconcentration of radionuclidei at the location (r, 6) with respect to the releasepoint may be determined as xi(r,0) = 3.17 x 10 4 Qi(X/Q)D(rO) where xi(r,e) is the annual average ground-level3 concentration of nuclide i in air in sector 0 at distance r, in pCi/mi 3.17 x 104 is the number ofpCi/Ci divided by the number of sec/yr (x/Q)D (r,0) is the annual average atmosphere dispersionfactor, in sec/hn3.

Qi is the release rate of nuclide Ito the atmosphere, in Ci/yr A value of 1E-5 sec/mr3 was used for the annual average atmosphere dispersion factor at the site boundary (X/Q)D(rO) for releases from the plant stack. This is based on a release rate of 25,000 cfin. (Ref: Safstor ODCM, Appendix B, 1.2) This value is obtained from Calculation N-23 8C, Rev. 0, "DeterminingEffect of HBPP Unit 3 Stack Reconfiguration on Downwind Effluent Concentrations".

To determine the release rate that will result in an average ground-level concentration the above equation must be rearranged to:

Qi = xi(r,0) / (3.17 x 104 (X/Q)D(r,0))

Therefore the plant stack release rate of Am-241 required to equal the annual average ground-level concentration at the site boundary calculated above is:

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 425 REVISION TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-4 1.06E-1 pCi/m3 / ((3.17E4 (pCi/Ci)/ (sec/yr)) * (1E-5 sec/m 3))

3.34E-1 Ci/yr or 3.34E5 uCi/yr 1.2.3 Transmission Fraction Particulate depositional losses will occur in the external transport sample lines that connect the MGP ABPM201 S alpha beta particulate monitor to the stack. These depositional losses have been calculated to determine a conservative correction factor.

Based on this calculation the transmission fraction at 30,000 scfmn is 80.4%. The inverse of the transmission fraction, 1.24, defines a correction coefficient which can be applied to the release rate and public dose rate calculations of the stack monitor.

No change in the transmission fraction or correction coefficient is assumed at the reduced effluent flow rate of 25,000 scfm.

1.2.4 Stack Concentration The stack concentration that would result in a release rate of 3.34E-1 Ci/yr is equal to:

Total release (Curies/year) / Release rate (cc/year)

The average annual stack flow rate is 25,000 cfm This results in a total volume of 3.72E14 cc/yr This is based on (25,000 ft3 /min

  • 525,600 minutes/yr
  • 28,317 cc/ft3).

(3.34E-1 Ci

  • lE6 jiCi/Ci) / (3.72E14 cc/yr) = 8.98E-10 [tCi/cc Correcting for the transmission fraction this is equal to:

8.98E-10 p.Ci/cc

  • 0.804 = 7.22E-10 [tCi/cc Therefore an indicated stack concentration of 7.22E-10 ltCi/cc at 25,000 cfin for one calendar year would result in a dose of 1500 mrem to a member of the public at the site boundary.

Two times the indicated release rate is equal to 1.44E-9 [tCi/cc.

Two hundred times the indicated release rate is equal to 1.44E-7 iCi/cc.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-5 1.2.5 Relationship to EPA PAG To compare the release rates calculated above the following assumptions were made:

Am-241 dose conversion factor in rem / cm-3 [tCi hri, from EPA 400 = 5.3E8 A value of 6.52E-4 sec/mr3 was used for the instantaneous atmospheric dispersion factor (X/Q)Dl(r,0). This value is obtained from Safstor ODCM Appendix B, 1.1 "Basesfor Atmospheric Dispersionand Deposition Values".

Assuming that an unplanned release occurs at two times the ODCM release rate for one hour the total activity released is equal to:

8.98E-10 gCi/cc

  • 2 = 1.8E-9 [tCi/cc 1.8E-9 [tCi/cc
  • 25,000 ft3/min
  • 28,317 cc/ft3
  • 60 min = 7.65E1 tCi (7.65E1 ptCi) * (5.3E8 rem / cm-3 uCi hr) * (6.52E-4 sec/m 3) / (1E6 cm 3/m3) /

(3600 sec/hour) = 7.34E-3 rem This is much less than the EPA PAG of 1 Rem Assuming that an unplanned release occurs at two hundred times the ODCM release rate for 15 minutes the total activity released is equal to:

8.98E-10 jiCi/cc

  • 200 = 1.8E-7 ýLCi/cc 1.8E-7 [tCi/cc
  • 25,000 ft3/min
  • 28,317 cc/ft3
  • 15 min = 1.91E3 [iCi This results in a dose of:

(1.91E3 XCi) * (5.3E8 rem / cm"3 uCi hr) * (6.52E-4 sec/mr3) / (1E6 cm 3/m 3) /

(3600 sec/hour) =

1.83E-1 rem This is much less than the EPA PAG of 1 Rem

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-6 1.2.6 Relationship to 10CFR20 Appendix B Table 2 Effluent Concentration limits The 10CFR20 Appendix B Table 2 Effluent Concentration limit for Arn-241 is 2E-14 [tCi/ml.

The average annual ground-level concentration in air (xi) in pCi/m3 is equal to:

xi = (3.17E4 (pCi/Ci)/ (sec/year))

  • Q * (V/Q)

Where Q is equal to the quantity of radioactive material released in a year in Curies/year 3

ODCM average annual stack release X/Q = 1E-5 see/ m If xj= 2E-14 p.Ci/ml then:

Q = (2E-14 [tCi/ml

  • 1E6 ml/m 3
  • 1E6 pCi/jiCi) / ((3.17E4 (pCi/Ci)/

(sec/yr)*(1E-5 sec/ in 3 ))

Q = 6.31E-2 Ci/yr The average annual stack volume based on the ODCM is 3.72E14 cc/yr.

This is based on (25,000 cftr

  • 525,600 minutes/yr
  • 28,317 cc/cfmn).

Therefore, the stack concentration required to result in a fence-line concentration of 2E-14 [tCi/ml is:

(6.31-2 Ci/yr

  • 1E6 ýtCi/Ci) / (3.72E14 cc/yr

  • Release Rate The Conversion Factor is equal to (1.77E6 mrem/IgCi) * (1E-5 sec/ m3) * (8000 mr3/year) / (8.64E4 sec/day)

This is equal tol.64 mren~iyear per gICi/day 1.2.9 Results The 10CFR20 Appendix B Table 2 Effluent Concentration limit for Arm-241 is 2E-14 1 iCi/ml. The SPAM indication that would result in a fence-line concentration of 2E-14 iiCi/ml is 1.36E-10 jtCi/ml. This is approximately equal to 10% of an NUE.

This value is used as the high alarm setpoint for the SPAM.

A NUE is equal to two times the ODCM release rate limit and this is equal to a SPAM indication of 1.44E-9 pCi/cc. This value is used as the high high alarm setpoint for the SPAM.

Two hundred times the ODCM release rate is equal to a SPAM indication of 1.44E-7 [tCi/cc.

Assuming that an unplanned release occurs at two times the ODCM release rate for one hour the offsite dose corresponding to an NUE would be 7.34E-3 rem (7.34 mrem) which is much less than the EPA PAG.

Assuming that an unplanned release occurs at two hundred times the ODCM release rate for fifteen minutes the offsite dose corresponding to an Alert would be 1.83E-1 rem (183 mrem) which is much less than the EPA PAG.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-8 2.0 LIQUID EFFLUENT DOSE CALCULATIONS F4/14 - 2.1 MONTH (31 DAY PERIOD) Deleted 2.2 CALENDAR QUARTER - Deleted 2.3 CALENDAR YEAR - Deleted 2.4 LIQUID EFFLUENT DOSE CALCULATION METHODOLOGY As of December 31, 2013, HBPP has ceased liquid radioactive effluent discharges via the discharge canal to Humboldt Bay. Any remaining processed liquid radioactive waste is transported offsite for land disposal at an authorized disposal facility. The following calculation methodology is preserved as a part of the ODCM for ease of reference to site specific parameters in the event of an accidental release of liquid radioactive effluent. No recurring liquid effluent dose calculations are expected for the remainder of decommissioning.

The equations specified in this section 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 Purpose of Implementing Appendix I," April 1977.

Equation (2) of Regulatory Guide 1.109 provides for the use of a site specific mixing ratio (i.e.

reciprocal of the dilution factor) that describes the near term and near field mixing of the tidal flow from the Discharge Canal into Humboldt Bay. A two-dimensional numerical analysis, depth-averaged, finite element hydrodynamic model (reference 12.1) was developed by CH2MHILL and used to estimate the dispersion of the canal discharge in the Bay. The analysis indicated that an additional dilution factor of 80 for batch release applications or a dilution factor of 20 for continuous release applications can conservatively be used to describe the Bay dilution. A factor of 20 will be applied in this calculation to address any combination of release modes.

Since the intake canal contains a larger volume of water, use of the above dilution factors for effluent releases to the intake canal provides a simplified, conservative methodology for calculating annual dose from effluent releases to the intake canal.

The dose contribution to the total body and each individual organ (bone, liver, kidney, hlng and GI-LLI) of the maximum and average exposed individual (adult, teen, child, and infant) will be calculated for the nuclides detected in effluents. The dose to an organ of an individual from the release of a mixture of radionuclides will be calculated as follows:

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-9 n

D= [Ci - BaydilutedX DF x {(BFish.i x UFish)"+(B+/-,, i x Uiv)}] (2-1) i=1 where:

D The dose commitment, mrnem per year, to an organ (or to the whole body) due to consumption of aquatic foods.

Ci-Bay diluted = The average diluted Bay concentration, pico-Curie/liter, for radionuclide, i. If the outfall to the canal is at the furthest most portion of the canal from the entrance to the Bay, this will be estimated by calculating the total activity released (e.g. effluent concentration Ci effluent in pCi/L times the discharge volume VD in Liters) then dividing the total activity of the nuclide discharged during the period, pico-Curies, by the dilution volume (e.g. total discharged volume VD plus total tidal flow VTD during the period in liters), and by the Bay dilution factor of 20. The total annual tidal flow for the outfall canal is 2.47E+9 Liters/year (e.g.,

6.77E+6 Liters/day). If Gross Alpha radioactivity is detennined to be in the effluent , Pu-241 will be considered to be present at 3.25 times the amount of detected Gross Alpha radioactivity. Note that the resulting dose commitment is the annual dose rate (mrem per year) for a time frame with this average concentration. Doses (NOT dose rates) for periods shorter than a year must be proportionately reduced.

C- EffluentX VD Ci- Baydiluted -

If the outfall is not located in the furthest most portion of the canal from the entrance to the Bay, no credit for tidal dilution of the canal will be taken and the diluted Bay concentration will be calculated using the following equation.

Ci - Effluent Ci - Baydiluted - (2-3) 20 DF The dose conversion factor, mrem/pico-Curie for the nuclide, organ, and age group being calculated. This factor is taken from Tables 2-1, 2-2, and 2-3.

BFish, i = The bioaccumulation factor, pico-Curie/kilogram per pico-Curie/liter, in fish for the radionuclide in question. This value is taken from Table 2-4.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-10 BInv, i The bioaccumulation factor, pico-Curie/kilogram per pico-Curie/liter, in invertebrates for the radionuclide in question. This value is taken from Table 2-4.

UFish Usage factor (consumption) of fish, kilogramr/year, for the age group and individual (average or maximum) in question. This factor is derived from Table 2-5 or 2-6.

UInv Usage factor of invertebrates, kilogram/year, for the applicable age group and individual (average or maximum). This factor is from Table 2-5 or 2-6.

The total exposure to an organ (or whole body) is found from the summnation of the contributions of each of the individual nuclides calculated. Note that the infant age group is not considered to consume either fish or other seafood, and exposure to this age group need therefore not be calculated.

Dose calculations can be performed using the above methodology for the current month, quarter, or year.

4.1.2 Tritium and Radioactive Particulates There are no short-lived radioactive particulates in the effluent, so radioactive decay can be neglected. Meteorological parameters are assumed to be constant, and applied for the most conservative location. Therefore, the radioactive particulates dose rate calculation methodology is the same as the radioactive particulates dose calculation methodology. Refer to sections 4.3.3 through 4.3.8 for the appropriate equations.

As explained in Specification Bases 3.5, Tritium is not required to be monitored, and the corresponding dose rate need not be calculated. Nevertheless, if such a calculation is required, refer to sections 4.3.9 through 4.3.13 for the appropriate equations.

4.3.2 Calendar Year The methods for calculating the dose due to 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 Part 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.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-15 The equations provided for determining the doses at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY are based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions.

4.3.3 Particulate Organ Dose Calculation Sunimnation Methodology The release rate specifications for radioactive particulates with half-life greater than eight days are dependent on the existing radionuclide pathways to man, in areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY. The pathways which were examined in the development of these calculations were: 1) Individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, 2) deposition of radionuclides onto green leaf 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.

The releases of radioactive materials in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days in gaseous effluents will be essentially limited to Cs-137, Co-60, and Sr-90.

Radioactive decay may result in the dose from Transuranic radionuclides becoming significant. If Gross Alpha radioactivity is determined to be released, Pu-241 will be considered to be present at 3.25 times the amount of detected Gross Alpha radioactivity. The annual dose commitment will be calculated for any organ of an individual age group as follows:

n D= Z[Q, X (Rinh,i + RGP,i + RMeati + RMilk,i + Rveg,i)] (4-3) i=1 where:

D Annual dose commitment, mrem/year.

Qi The average release rate of the nuclide in question, pico-Curies/second.

RInh, i = The dose factor for the inhalation pathway for the radionuclide, i, in units of mrem/year per pico-Curie/sec.

RGP, i = The dose factor for the ground plane (direct exposure from deposition) pathway for the radionuclide, i, in units of mrem/year per pico-Curie/sec.

RMeat, i = The dose factor for the grass-cow-meat pathway for the radionuclide, i, in units of mremlyear per pico-Curie/sec.

RMilk, i = The dose factor for the grass-cow-milk pathway for the radionuclide, i, in units of nmrem/year per pico-Curie/sec.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-16 Rveg, i = The dose factor for the pathway of deposition on vegetation for the radionuclide, i, in units of mrem/year per pico-Curie/sec.

In general, the calculations for these pathways give results that represent trivial radiation exposure. The values calculated for typical anticipated Decommissioning releases range from about 0.002 rnremlyear (fruit/vegetable consumption pathway) to less than 1 x 10-6 mrerneyear (for direct radiation exposure from material deposited on the ground).

Note: this equation probably overestimates exposures, since it assumes that all of the deposition on a plant remains on the plant, while the Regulatory Guide allows a factor of 0.25. Also, the quantities assumed consumed include grain (none is grown in the vicinity of the plant), as well as vegetables and fruit grown in other areas (imported to Humboldt county).

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-21 4.3.9 Tritium Organ Dose Calculation Methodology The annual dose commitment may be calculated for any organ of an individual age group as follows:

D =QA3 x (Rini, fu+/- RGP,H +/-u Rmet,H +/-- Rrvw,ý + Rveg- FB) (4-4) where:

D = Annual dose commitment, mrero/year.

QH3 = The average release rate of H-3, pico-Curies/second.

RInh, H3 = The dose factor for the inhalation pathway for H-3, mrem/year per pico-Curie/sec.

Rveg, H3 = The dose factor for the vegetation consumption pathway, mrem/year per pico-Curie/sec.

This pathway results in trivial offsite calculated radiation exposures. A very conservative assumption of Tritium release is that Spent Fuel Pool water at 1 x 10-2 micro-Curies/ml H-3 is lost to the stack at a rate of 50 gallons/day. With this assumption, the calculated maximum offsite exposure is 0.0013 mrem/year.

The whole body dose is determined by summing the calculated doses from the following:

a. Deleted
b. Stack or Modular HEPA Ventilation Particulate releases, using equation (4-3).
c. Stack or Modular HEPA Ventilation Tritium releases, using equation (4-4). (See Specification Bases 3.5)

/14/14 d. Liquid releases, No longer applicable.

To this calculated exposure is added potential direct radiation exposure to an individual at the site boundary. The only portion of the site boundary where there is significant direct radiation is near the radwaste facilities at the [PG&E] North edge of the site. Due to the possibility that an individual at the shoreline (fishing, bird watching, etc.) may use the path at the brow of the cliff for access, the TLD stations along the path are used to estimate an annual radiation exposure. The time period used for this estimate is 67 hour7.75463e-4 days <br />0.0186 hours <br />1.107804e-4 weeks <br />2.54935e-5 months <br />s/year, given by Table E-5 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, as the maximum time for shoreline recreation for the Teen age group.

5.2 SKIN DOSE Specification 2.10 limits the dose to any organ (thyroid excepted) to less than or equal to 25 mrem/year. The dose to the skin is determined by summing the calculated doses from the following:

a. Deleted
b. Stack or Modular HEPA Ventilation releases, using equation (4-3). (For H-3, the exposure to all organs is essentially equal, so the whole body value may be used for skin.)

F4/14 c. Liquid releases, No longer applicable.

d. The potential direct radiation exposure to an individual at the site boundary based on TLD stations, as determined in Section 5.1 above.

5.4 DOSE TO THE THYROID Specification 2.10 limits the dose to the thyroid to less than or equal to 75 marem/year.

Since Unit 3 has not operated since July 2, 1976, there is an insufficient radioactive iodine source term remaining onsite to approach this limit. Therefore, calculation of dose to the thyroid is not required.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-34 6.0 PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM FOR RADIOACTIVE WASTE REQUIRING SOLIDIFICATION 6.1 SCOPE This section pertains to radioactive waste containing a total specific activity which exceeds the burial ground criteria for solidification, or which exceeds the concentration limits for Class A waste as defined in 10 CFR 61. These wastes must be stabilized by solidification and contain no freestanding liquids prior to shipment offsite for land burial, or else be packaged in a high integrity container in accordance with Section 7.0.

6.2 PROGRAM ELEMENTS For the land burial disposal of radioactive waste requiring solidification, HBPP shall implement the following steps:

6.2.1 Contract vendor solidification service may be utilized. The contract vendor solidification service may consist of solidification by the contractor or supply of materials, procedures and process control program (PCP) for HBPP solidification.

6.2.2 This vendor service shall include transmittal to HBPP of copies of their solidification procedure and PCP prior to performing the solidification.

6.2.3 The process parameters included in the PCP may include, but are not limited to, waste type, waste pH, waste/liquid/solidification agent/catalyst ratios, waste oil content, waste principal chemical constituents and mixing and curing times.

6.2.4 The vendor solidification procedure and PCP shall be incorporated into a Plant Manual procedure that will be effective during the solidification process. This procedure will identify all Plant interfaces with the vendor's equipment (e.g., flush water, fire protection, shielding requirements, etc.), as well as identify the actions to be taken if excess free standing liquids are observed. This procedure shall require at least one representative test specimen from at least every tenth batch of waste processed to ensure solidification. The procedure should also include the actions to be taken if the test specimen fails to solidify.

6.2.5 This procedure shall be reviewed per plant procedures for adequacy in meeting applicable State, Federal, Department of Transportation and burial ground regulatory requirements and approved by the Plant Manager or designee prior to its implementation. This review shall ensure that the stability requirements of 10 CFR 61.56(b) for wastes exceeding Class A concentrations are met by the vendor solidification program.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-35 7.0 PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM FOR RADIOACTIVE WASTE PACKAGED IN HIGH INTEGRITY CONTAINERS 7.1 SCOPE This section pertains to radioactive waste containing specific activity which exceeds the burial ground criteria for solidification, or which exceeds the concentration limits for Class A waste as defined in 10 CFR 61. These wastes must be stabilized by packaging in dewatered form in a high-integrity container which meets burial ground and regulatory requirements, or else be solidified in accordance with Section 6.0.

7.2 PROGRAM ELEMENTS For land burial disposal of radioactive waste requiring a high-integrity container, HBPP shall implement the following steps:

7.2.1 A contract vendor high-integrity container shall be used.

7.2.2 The container shall be demonstrated to have been approved or have a current Certificate of Compliance prior to acceptance for use by HBPP. This shall include provision by the vendor to HBPP of documentation reflecting this authorization.

7.2.3 The material placed in the high-integrity container shall meet all applicable burial ground and regulatory waste form requirements for waste which is packaged in this manner.

7.2.4 The above criteria shall be met by following Plant Manual procedures which will be reviewed and approved by the Plant Manager or designee in accordance with Plant Manual administrative procedures prior to implementation at the time of packaging and disposal.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-36 8.0 PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM FOR LOW ACTIVITY DEWATERED RESINS AND OTHER WET WASTES 8.1 SCOPE This section pertains to bead-type spent radioactive demineralizer resin and other wet wastes shipped for land burial which contain a total specific activity less than the burial ground criteria for solidification, and which does not exceed the concentration limits for Class A waste as defined in 10 CFR 61.

8.2 PROGRAM ELEMENTS 8.2.1 The dewatered resin or wet wastes must meet the requirements of 10 CFR 61.56 or those of the burial ground (whichever is more restrictive) for freestanding, noncorrosive liquid.

8.2.2 For bead resins, the preceding criterion will be met by following approved Plant Manual procedures for dewatering resin.

8.2.3 Liquid waste, that will not be thermal treated to remove freestanding liquid, must be solidified.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION DEPARTMENT SECTION ODCM VOLUME 4 TITLE SAFSTOR/DECOMMISSIONING OFFSITE REVISION 25 DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11-37 9.0 PROGRAM CHANGES 9.1 PURPOSE OF THE OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual was developed to support the implementation of the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications required by 10 CFR 50, Appendix I, and 10 CFR 50.36. The purpose of the manual is to provide the NRC with sufficient information relative to effluent monitor setpoint calculations, effluent related dose calculations, and environmental monitoring to demonstrate compliance with radiological effluent controls.

9.2 CHANGES TO THE OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL It is recognized that changes to the ODCM may be required during the Decommissioning period. All changes shall be reviewed and approved by the PSRC and the Plant Manager prior to implementation. The NRC shall be informed of all changes to the ODCM by providing a description of the change(s) in the first Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report following the date the change became effective. Records of the reviews performed on change to the ODCM should be documented and retained for the duration of the possession only license.

9.3 HBPP is allowed to modify or reduce environmental requirements in the ODCM provided HBPP considers the modification or reduction from a technical and decommissioning perspective. [CTS-29 1]

ODCM APPENDIX A Revision 25 Page A-2 1.0 LIQUID AND GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 1.1 LIQUID EFFLUENTS Baseline levels of radioactive materials contained in liquid effluents during the SAFSTOR period were established in the Environmental Report submitted as Attachment 6 to the SAFSTOR license amendment request. These values are presented for cumulative annual release and average monthly discharge in Table A-1. Use of the Liquid Radioactive Waste Treatment System will be discontinued, these liquids will treated and released with the Filtered Ion Exchange System (FIXS) or shipped for treatment off-site when the Liquid F4/14 Radioactive Waste System is no longer available. As of December 31, 2013, HBPP ceased processed liquid effluent to the discharge canal and processed liquid effluent will be transported for disposal at a regulated landfill. Storm water and groundwater associated with excavations and groundwater inleakage to structures during decommissioning will be treated and released using the Ground Water Treatment System in accordance with the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPP) and the associated NPDES permit. The GWTS is an Active Treatment System (ATS) is designed to remove suspended solids in order to meet release criteria of the SWPP. The system will be limited to treating water containing soluble radionuclides less than 10 times the "new" 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 effluent concentration limits (ECLs) in order to ensure concentrations at the Site Boundary are maintained less than limiting condition 2.3.1.

1.2 GASEOUS EFFLUENTS Baseline levels of radioactive materials contained in gaseous effluents established in the Enviromnental Report are presented for cumulative annual and average monthly release in Table A-2.

ODCM APPENDIX B Revision 25 Page B-I APPENDIX B BASES FOR ATMOSPHERIC DISPERSION AND DEPOSITION VALUES

ODCM APPENDIX B Revision 25 Page B-2 1.0 BASIS FOR DISPERSION/DEPOSITION VALUES - 50' STACK 1.1 The instantaneous atmospheric dispersion factor (X/Q) is taken from meteorological parameter calculations performed to evaluate reducing the height of the Unit 3 stack. The calculation report is number N238C, Revision 0, titled "Determine Effect of Humboldt Bay Power Plant Unit 3 Stack Reconfiguration on Downwind Effluent Concentrations".

This calculation is microfilmed (with calculations N238A & N238B), at microfilm reel/frame location (RLOC) 07175-4939 thru 5359. Table 1 (frame number 5140) of the calculation (N238C) provides "1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />" values for the instantaneous X/Q for the 50' stack for various stack flow rates, based on an EPA model named "ISCST". The instantaneous X/Q value used in the ODCM (6.52 x 10-4) is based on a stack flow of 25,000 cfm.

1.2 The annual average atmospheric dispersion factor (X/Q) is taken from meteorological parameter calculations performed to evaluate reducing the height of the Unit 3 stack.

Table 1 (frame number 5140) of the calculation (N238C) provides annual maximum values for X/Q for the 50' stack for various stack flow rates, based on an NRC model named "XOQDOQ". The annual average X/Q value used in the ODCM (1.00 x 105) is based on a stack flow of 25,000 cfm.

1.3 The annual average atmospheric deposition factor (D/Q) is taken from meteorological parameter calculations performed to evaluate reducing the height of the Unit 3 stack. The calculation report is number N23 8C, Revision 0, titled "Determine Effect of Humboldt Bay Power Plant Unit 3 Stack Reconfiguration on Downwind Effluent Concentrations".

This calculation is microfilmed (with calculations N238A & N23 8B), at microfilm reel/frame location (RLOC) 07175-4939 thru 5359. Table 1 (frame number 5140) of the calculation (N238C) provides annual maximum values for D/Q for the 50' stack for various stack flow rates, based on an NRC model named "XOQDOQ". The annual average D/Q value used in the ODCM (3.00 x 108) is based on a stack flow of 25,000 cfm.

2.0 BASIS FOR DISPERSION/DEPOSITION VALUES - INCIDENTAL RELEASE PATHS 2.1 The atmospheric dispersion factor (X/Q) for incidental releases is 6.59 x 10 -3 seconds/cubic meter, calculated as described below 2.1.1 This factor is based on the atmospheric models of Regulatory Guide 1.145, Atmospheric DispersionModels for PotentialAccident Consequence Assessments at Nuclear Power Plants. These models are intended to estimate meteorological dispersion for "real time" conditions (i.e., hourly), rather than "annual average" conditions. The applicable guidance is section 1.3.1 (Releases Through Vents or Other Building Penetrations), as it applies to all releases from points lower than 2.5 times the height of adjacent structures. This calculation generally follows the guidance for the use of equations 1, 2 and 3 of Regulatory Guide 1.145.

ODCM APPENDIX B Revision 25 Page B-3 2.1.2 The assumed distance from the emission point to the potential receptor for this calculation is 150 meters. This is the approximate distance to publicly accessible areas from the structure with the most significant potential for airborne radioactivity (i.e. from the center of the Refueling Building to the trail at the edge of the bluff).

2.1.3 The meteorological conditions assumed for this calculation are for stable "fumigation" conditions (Pasquill stability class G), with a wind speed of 1 meters/second.

2.1.4 The applicable equations from Reg. Guide 1.145 are as follows:

X/Q = 1 (1) 1 X/Q = 1 (2) 1 X/Q =(3)

U 1071ty (7z where:

Ui0 = wind speed at 10 meters above grade, equal to 1 meter/second.

Cy = lateral plume spread, equal to 4.33 meters for Pasquill Class G at a distance of 150 meters.

  • = vertical plume spread, equal to 1.86 meters for Pasquill Class G at a distance of 150 meters.

A vertical cross-sectional area of structures, equal to 375 meters2 , based on the Refueling Building dimensions (about 36 feet high, about 112 feet long).

y lateral plume spread (including meander and building wake), meters, equal to 6ay (for distances less than 800 meters, wind speeds below 2 meters/second, and stability class G).

2.1.5 With these values, the results for equations 1, 2, and 3 are as follows:

X/Q = 4.70 x 10-3 seconds/meter 3 (1)

ODCM APPENDIX B Revision 25 Page B-4 Xi/Q = 1.32 x 10-2 seconds/meter 3 (2)

X/Q = 6.59 x 10-3 seconds/meter 3 (3)

Per the Reg. Guide, the higher value of equations 1 and 2 is to be compared with the value for equation 3, and the lower value of that comparison should be used.

with this logic, the resulting value for X/Q is 6.59 x 10-3 seconds/meter3.

2.2 The atmospheric deposition factor (D/Q) for incidental releases is 5.39 x 10-6 meter"2 for the Particulate Ground Plane Pathway, and is 3.29 x 10-6 meter-2 for all other deposition related pathways. The factors are calculated as described below 2.2.1 These factors are based on the atmospheric models of Regulatory Guide 1.111, Methodsfor EstimatingAtmospheric Transportand Dispersionof Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releasesfiom Light-water-cooledReactors. The applicable guidance is section C.3.b (Dry Deposition), and Figure 6 (Relative Deposition for Ground-level Releases). To determine the atmospheric deposition across a downwind sector, the value from Figure 6 is to be multiplied by the fraction of the release transported into the sector, and divided by the sector cross-wind arc length at the distance being considered. For this calculation, the deposited contamination will be assumed to be evenly distributed across the width of the plume, rather than across an arbitrary angular sector.

2.2.2 Two factors are necessary because the nearest location (along the bay) is not a credible location for farming. For the purposes of estimating offsite doses from incidental releases, the nearest "farn" will be assumed to be beyond the railroad tracks, Southeast of the plant.

2.2.3 For the Particulate Ground Plane Pathway, the assumed distance from the emission point to the potential receptor for this calculation is 150 meters. This is the approximate distance to publicly accessible areas from the structure with the most significant potential for airborne radioactivity (i.e. from the center of the Refueling Building to the trail at the edge of the bluff). At this distance, Figure 6 provides a Relative Deposition Rate value of 1.4 x 10-4 meter-'. The plume width assumed for this calculation is the same as was used in equation 3 of section 2.1.4 (above), so that the plume width is approximately 6oy. For ay equal to 4.33 meters (Pasquill Class G at a distance of 150 meters), D/Q is (1.4 x 10-4 meter-')/

(6 x 4.33 meter) = 5.39 x 10-6 meter-2.

2.2.4 For the pathways involving farming or ranching, the assumed distance from the emission point to the potential receptor for this calculation is 220 meters. This is the approximate distance to publicly accessible "grazing" areas from the structure with the most significant potential for airborne radioactivity (i.e. from the center of the Refueling Building to the other side of the railroad). At this distance,

ODCM APPENDIX B Revision 25 Page B-5 Figure 6 provides a Relative Deposition Rate value of 1.2 x 10-4 meter-1. The plume width assumed for this calculation is the same as was used in equation 3 of section 2.1.4 (above), with the plume width of approximately 6oy,., but at a greater distance. For oay equal to 6.07 meters (Pasquill Class G at a distance of 220 meters), D/Q is (1.2 x 10-4 meter-')/ (6 x 6.07 meter) = 3.29 x 10-6 meter-2.
