WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-1 2.3 METEOROLOGY 2.3.1 REGIONAL CLIMATOLOGY 2.3.1.1 General Climate The climate of southeastern Louisiana is classified as humid subtropical(1). It is influenced to a large degree by the many water surfaces, provided by lakes and streams and by proximity to the Gulf of Mexico.(2)
During mid-June to mid-September, the prevailing southeast to southwest winds carry inland warm, moist tropical air favorable for sporadic, often quite localized development of thunderstorms. Occasionally the pressure distribution of the atmosphere changes to bring in a flow of hotter and drier air.
The prevailing southeast to southwest winds in the summer months(3) are usually associated with the "Bermuda High" that often remains stationary in the Atlantic Ocean off the southeast coast of the United States; on some days, however, such winds merely reflect a localized sea breeze. The hotter drier conditions on the other hand are usually caused by the formation of a high pressure system over the Western Gulf of Mexico. Cool continental air rarely reaches the site region in summer. If a cold front does occur, the cold air behind the front has usually been greatly moderated by solar heating over the plains states to the north or northwest.
From late fall until early spring, bursts of cold air do reach southeastern Louisiana, but the cool temperatures which result seldom last more than a few days(2). Even during these seasons the weather is still usually dominated by maritime tropical air from the Gulf of Mexico.(4) The interaction between this moist air and the much colder, drier air to the north often generates or intensifies winter storms which then usually pass to the north of the site(2,4). Throughout the year, the many water surfaces in the site area modify the relative humidity and temperature by decreasing the range between extremes.(2) During periods of southerly wind flow, these effects are increased, imparting the characteristics of a marine climate. Relative humidities of less than 50 percent occur in each month of the year; however, they are less frequent in the summer than during the other seasons(2). Freezing temperatures are not common and are generally restricted to the period mid-December to mid-March. Some years have none(2).
Measureable snowfall in the region is rare. Only four times in the 100 years of data prior to 1975 has the snowfall depth exceeded two inches(2). A fairly definite rainy period exists from mid-December to mid-March. Rainy weather conditions in this period often persist for several days at a time.
Damaging hail and sleet are not frequently reported in the site area(2,4).
2.3.1.2 Regional Meteorological Conditions for Design and Operating Bases 2.3.1.2.1 Maximum Winds and Design Wind Speeds
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-2 High wind speeds in the area are associated with hurricanes, thunderstorms, frontal passage, and extratropical cyclones. The highest sustained wind speed officially measured at New Orleans was 98 mph from the north on September 19, 1947 during the passage of a hurricane.(2)
Thom(5) has computed the return period for extreme winds (fastest mile of wind exclusive of tornado winds at height 30 ft. above the ground). According to these statistics, an extreme wind of 100 mph (36 second mean wind) can be expected to occur on the average once every 100 years. Based on a gustiness factor developed by Huss(6), the highest instantaneous gust expected once in 100 years is 130 mph.
The fastest mile wind speeds for recurrence intervals from 2 to 100 years presented in Table 2.3-1. For comparison purposes, the observed fastest mile wind speeds and concurrent directions at Moisant International Airport for the 47 year period 1921-1967 are presented in Table 2.3-2.
Of concern to plant designers is the distribution of high wind speeds with height. Using the once in a hundred year fastest mile of wind discussed above (100 mph) and a standard vertical wind profile, the distribution of extreme winds with height at the site is as follows:
0-50 ft.
50-150 ft.
150-400 ft.
100 mph 119 mph 138 mph 2.3.1.2.2 Hurricanes During the period 1871-1977, 55 tropical storms or hurricanes passed within 100 nautical miles of the Waterford 3 site(7)(18). Beginning with 1886, the National Weather Bureau has differentiated between tropical storms (maximum wind <74 mph) and hurricanes (>74 mph). Since 1886, there have been 26 passages of hurricanes and 23 of tropical storms within 100 nautical miles of the site. Since 1900, the centers of three hurricanes have passed over New Orleans.
At 9:12 a.m. on September 19, 1947, during the passage of a hurricane, the highest wind of record at Moisant International Airport was measured as 98 mph. Afterwards, but shortly before the eye of the hurricane passed over the station, the velocity indicator became difficult to read; the wind was estimated to reach as high as 110 mph with gusts estimated to 125 mph.
In 1965, Hurricane "Betsy" brought destructive winds to the New Orleans Metropolitan area. On September 9, 1965, at 11:47 pm, the winds at New Orleans International Airport reached 85 mph from the east, with gusts to 112 mph. In New Orleans, an extreme wind of 125 mph from the east was estimated atop the Federal Building. Since 1963, five tropical cyclones with winds in excess of 50 mph, all hurricanes (including Betsy), have passed within 100 nautical miles of the Waterford Site. Of these, Betsy was by far the most severe in the New Orleans-Waterford site area. A summary of these five hurricanes is presented in Table 2.3-137.
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-3 2.3.1.2.3 Thunderstorms Thunderstorms with damaging winds and hail are relatively infrequent. The most damaging thunderstorms are those associated with the passage of a cold front or squall line.(2)
Based on 21 years of records of the US Weather Bureau at Moisant International Airport (1949-1969), the mean number of days with thunderstorms is:
Jan Feb Mar Apr May June July Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec Annual 2
2 3
5 6
9 16 13 7
2 1
2 68 The maximum thunderstorm occurrence during the months of July and August is also reflected in the monthly average precipitation.
During the period 1955-1967, hail 0.75 in. or greater in diameter was reported 13 times in the one-degree latitude-longitude square containing the site(8). These occurrences are relatively infrequent especially when compared to over 100 such hail reports at some locations in Oklahoma.
The site area experiences an annual average of 75 days with observable lightning or thunder. There are about 19 cloud to ground strikes per square mile per year(19). The most serious lightning displays will obviously occur in those thunderstorms associated with frontal passages.
The probability of the Waterford Reactor Building being struck by lightning in any year may be calculated using the procedures presented in Lightning Protection by J. L Marshal as 0.78 or approximately one lightning strike every 1.3 years.(19) All critical components and structures at the Waterford plant are protected against lightning damage by an extensive electrical grounding system.
2.3.1.2.4 Tornadoes A few of the more severe thunderstorms and hurricanes generate tornadoes. According to Thom(9), the total frequency of tornadoes for the 10 year period, 1953-1962, by one-degree latitude-longitude squares for southeastern Louisiana is:
89-90 W 90-91 W 29-30 N 9
9 30-31 N 12 11 The mean annual frequency of tornadoes per one degree square in the site area, therefore, is about one.
Thom(9) also gives the probability of a tornado striking a point based on the path width and length of all tornadoes reported in Iowa during 1953-1962. The average path area of these storms is given by Thom as 2.8209 square miles. Using this information, the tornado frequency presented above and the method suggested by Thom, the annual probability of a tornado striking the site is approximately 6.3 x 10-4 or about once every 1585 years.
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-4 Revision 11 (05/01)
An examination of tornado statistics for 1950-1977(20) showed that during this period a total of 112 tornadoes had been reported within 50 nautical miles (58 statute miles) of the Waterford site. The average path length and width of these 112 tornadoes is 3.36 miles and 318 ft. respectively; these values yield an average path area of 0.20 square miles.
Using the above, site specific, statistics and Thoms method the probability of a tornado striking the Waterford site is 7.68 x 10-5 or once in 13,029 years. See section 3.5.1.4.2 for the annual probability of tornado strike used in the TORMIS analysis.
The site specific tornado data described above shows that the two most severe tornadoes to occur in the site vicinity were classed F4 according to the Fujita Tornado intensity scale(21). This scale, which was developed by T.T. Fujita of the University of Chicago, classifies tornado intensity and maximum wind speed based upon the observed extent of damage attributable to the storm. The F4 classification is associated with wind speeds (rotational and translational combined) estimated to be between 207 and 260 mph.
Even though the probability of a tornado at the site is small, all structures and equipment necessary to initiate and maintain a safe plant shutdown have been designed to withstand short-term loadings resulting from a tornado funnel with a peripheral tangential velocity of 300 mph and a translational velocity of 60 mph with an external pressure drop of three psi in three seconds. Protection from the design basis tornado is provided by design margins and the judicious use of missile barriers such that the probability does not exceed acceptable value.
A TORMIS analysis was performed using tornado data for the years 1954-1995 to compute tornado strike probability at Waterford 3. The TORMIS analysis was them used to evaluate the protection requirements of certain components vulnerable to tornado generated missiles. The TORMIS analysis uses a NRC approved methodology developed by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). The methodology is implemented using the computer program TORMIS.
Should the Waterford 3 evaluations using the TORMIS methodology provide results indicating that the plant configuration exceed Waterford 3s 10-6 acceptance criteria, then missile protective barrier will be utilized to reduce the total cumulative probability value to below the acceptance criteria value of 10-6.
(DRN 00-1171) 2.3.1.2.5 Air Pollution Potential Qualitative estimates of the dispersion characteristics of a site can be made from tabulated summaries of meteorological data. Two types of summaries readily available to meteorologists consist of tabulations of mixing heights and tabulations of stagnating anticyclone (i.e., high pressure system) occurrences.
The mixing height of the atmosphere is defined as the height of that surface based layer through which pollutant material released to the atmosphere will be thoroughly mixed. The lower the mixing height, the more unfavorable dispersion conditions become. When low mixing heights are in turn combined with low wind speeds in the mixing layer air pollution problems can result. Using mixing height and wind speed data for the period 1960-1964, Holzworth(10) examined and generally summarized the relative potential for adverse dispersion conditions for urban areas throughout the contiguous United States. Although the Waterford 3 site is located in a rural area, Holzworth's analyses are reasonably applicable. Holzworth's results indicate that the site area can expect to experience between 10 and 15 days each year of "limited dispersion". This value is somewhat high in comparison to much of the eastern US where 5-10 such days generally occur each year but is quite low in comparison to those parts of the U.S. west of the Rocky Mountains.
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-5 Revision 11 (05/01)
As indicated earlier, the occurrence frequency of stagnating anticyclones represents another easily obtainable index of high air pollution potential. Stagnating anticyclones are in fact a cause of low mixing heights, so the two sets of data are interrelated. Using pres-sure gradient and low wind speed criteria, Korshover(11) has determined that from 1936 through 1965, approximately 30 stagnation incidents covering a total of 110 days occurred in the site area. Such statistics are higher than those for the northeastern U.S. and the mid-west but considerably lower than those for the southeast, especially the inland Carolinas and northern Georgia. Korshover also has concluded that only two stagnation incidents lasting for seven days or longer occurred in the site area in the entire 30-year period examined.
In summary it is apparent that both the mixing height and anticyclone data indicate similar conclusions regarding air pollution potential in the site area. Limited dispersion days occur with greater frequency in the New Orleans area than much of the eastern U.S., but this frequency is far below that experienced west of the Rocky Mountains.
Terrain features can also have an unfavorable impact upon the atmospheric dispersion of pollutant material. The terrain in the vicinity of the Waterford site, however, is relatively flat and thus no terrain induced dispersion problems are likely.
2.3.1.2.6 Snow, Glaze Snow or freezing precipitation is not a serious concern for a power plant in the New Orleans area.
Snowfall amounts in excess of two inches have only been recorded four times in the 100 years of data available prior to 1975 (five in. in January 1881, 8.2 in. in February 1895, three in. in February 1899, and 2.7 in. in December 1963(23)(24)).
Similarly, only one glaze storm was reported in the region by the U.S. Weather Bureau in the 28 year period of record (1925-1953).(12) However, the Weather Bureau data contains only limited information on glaze occurrences in the New Orleans area. Through conversations with the Lead Forecaster at the National Weather Service New Orleans Office(22), who has been a resident of the area for over 60 years, it was learned that since the early 1920s there have been only three significant glaze occurrences in the site vicinity. The most severe occurred in the early 1920s when approximately 1/4 in. of glaze ice accumulated on vegetation in the area. The accumulated glaze completely melted within less than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />. The other two glaze storms occurred on January 22 and 23, 1940 and in the mid to late 1950s.
Each of these storms deposited less than 1/4 in. of glaze on vegetation, automobiles, etc. and in both cases the glaze accumulations melted within several hours. In view of the absence of extreme phenomena of this type in the site region, no attempt was made to estimate the weight of a maximum 100-year snowpack in conjunction with the weight of 100-year, 48-hour maximum winter precipitation value.
2.3.1.2.7 Dry Bulb and Wet Bulb Temperatures Dry bulb and wet bulb data from a 17 year period of record (1948-1964) for Moisant International Airport were examined to obtain the design basis conditions for the ultimate heat sink. Where necessary, statistical extrapolations of observed results to longer return periods were accomplished.
The results of the analyses are presented in Table 2.3-2(a).
2.3.2 LOCAL METEOROLOGY 2.3.2.1 Normal and Extreme Values of Meteorological Parameters
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-6 2.3.2.1.1 Winds Surface wind data for New Orleans (Moisant International Airport) for the 10 year period 1951-1960(3) were used to define long-term wind conditions for the New Orleans area. The annual wind rose shows a south wind to be the predominant direction (nine percent of the total hours) although eight of the remaining 15 directions have a percentage frequency of six to eight percent. This feature strongly suggests a wide variation in wind direction. Calms occur 12 percent of the total hours. Figures 2.3-1 through 2.3-13 show annual and monthly wind roses for Moisant International Airport. This data is reproduced in tabular form in Tables 2.3-3 through 2.3-15.
Joint frequencies of three-hourly wind speed and direction recorded at New Orleans International Airport during the period July 1972 through June 1975 and February 1977 to February 1978 are presented in Table 2.3-15a. During this four year period southerly winds predominated (approximately 11 percent of the total hours) although several other directions occurred more than six percent of the time. During this period the average wind speed was 8.2 mph and calms occurred during 10.5 percent of the hours.
Tabulated wind rose data and actual wind roses for the onsite meteorological station (30 foot level) for the periods July 1973 through June 1975 and February 1977 to February 1978 are presented in Tables 2.3-16 through 28 and Figures 2.3-14 through 2.3-26. As the onsite data indicate, the site experiences fewer calms and more frequent south-easterly winds than does the airport. The decrease in calm conditions recorded at the site as opposed to the airport may be due to the low wind speed threshold for the anemometer and a longer averaging period of the observation (60 minute) at the site. The directional differences are most likely due to the effects of Lake Pontchartrain and the different relative location of the lake with respect to the airport and the Waterford site.
The onsite wind data were used in all of the diffusion analyses performed in conjunction with this report.
Since a substantial base of onsite data now exists, no attempts were made to account for any differences between the onsite and offsite data.
2.3.2.1.2 Temperature On the average there are only about seven days a year in the New Orleans area when the temperature rises to 95°F or higher(2) and 102°F is the highest temperature of record occurring most recently on June 30, 1954 in Orleans Parish. The longest period in New Orleans with temperatures of 90°F or higher on successive days was 64 days, June 21 - August 23, 1917, but the temperature did not exceed 96°F. The warmest summer was 1951, when the temperature for June, July and August averaged 84.7°F.
From about mid-November to mid-March, the area is subjected alternately to tropical air and cold continental air in periods of varying length. About 80 percent of the December-February hourly temperatures range from 41 to 69°F. The mean date of the first occurrence of 32°F or lower is about December 12, while the mean date of the last occurrence is about February 13. Between these dates, temperatures are above freezing more than six days out of seven entirely with some afternoons having temperatures in the seventies and eighties. The mean length of the freeze-free period is about 302 days.
The latest freeze date in spring was March 27, 1955, with 30°F reported. The earliest freeze date in the fall was November 11, 1894 when a reading of 32°F was recorded. The usual track of winter storms is to the
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-7 Revision 11-A (02/02) north of New Orleans, but occasionally one moves into the area, bringing large and rather sudden drops in temperature. However, the cold spells seldom last more than three or four days. In about two-thirds of the years, the annual lowest temperature is 24°F or warmer, with some years entirely above freezing. The all-time record low temperature recorded in New Orleans was 7°F on February 13, 1899. The coldest winter on record was 1885-1886, when the temperature for December, January and February averaged 50.9°F.
¨(DRN 01-464)
The long-term temperature records of the area show the typical annual cycle. The monthly average temperature varies from a minimum of 54.6°F in January to a maximum of 81.9°F in August at Moisant International Airport. Temperature records for New Orleans (Audubon Park) and Reserve show similar annual cycles (Table 2.3-29) The average diurnal temperature distribution at Moisant International Airport is presented in Table 2.3-30. Extremes in temperature range from 7° F recorded in February, 1899 to 102°F in June, 1954 (Table 2.3-31). Mean numbers of days when maximum and minimum temperatures exceed threshold values of 0°F, 32°F, and 90°F are listed in Table 2.3-32.
For comparison purposes onsite temperature data for the period July, 1972-June, 1975, and the period from mid-February 1977 to mid-February 1978 were tabulated and are presented in Table 2.3-33. The onsite temperature data show the same tendencies as the New Orleans data. Although the diurnal temperature range is several degrees lower at the site, the annual mean temperature for New Orleans and the site are within 0.7° F.
2.3.2.1.3 Relative Humidity and Fog From December to May, the waters of the Mississippi River are usually colder than the air temperature favoring the formation of river fog, particularly with light southerly winds. Nearby lakes also serve to modify the extremes of temperature and to increase the incidence of fog over narrow strips along the shores.
January is the month with the greatest frequency of fog occurrences.
Mean relative humidity at midnight, 6 AM, noon, and 6 PM Central Standard Time and mean number of days with heavy fog are listed in Table 2.3-34. In about half of the winter hours, however, the relative humidity is under 80 percent, and values less than 50 percent are about twice as frequent in winter as in the summer.
2.3.2.1.4 Precipitation A fairly definite rainy period occurs from mid-December to mid-March. Measurable precipitation occurs on about one-third of the days in conjunction with a warm front or a cold front which has stalled over the northern Gulf of Mexico. Rain is generally continuous and may last for several days. Snowfall amounts are generally light, with the snow usually melting as it lands. Snowfalls of two inches or more occurred in December, 1963, January, 1881, and February, 1899 and 1895.
¨(DRN 02-217)
April, May, October and November are generally dry, but there have been some extremely heavy showers in those months. The greatest 24-hour amount of precipitation since 1871 was 14.01 inches which fell on April 15-16, 1927, while 13.68 inches fell October 1-2, 1937. The heaviest recorded rate of rainfall in the New Orleans area was one inch in five minutes measured during a thunderstorm on February 5, 1955; however, such a rate is never long sustained. In contrast, one can expect a period of three consecutive weeks without measurable rainfall about once in 10 years. The longest period was 53 days from September 29 to November 20, 1924.
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-8 Revision 301 (09/07)
(DRN 02-217, R11-A)
(DRN 02-217, R11-A)
Average monthly and annual precipitation values representative of the area are shown in Table 2.3-35.
Extreme monthly and daily precipitation data and the mean number of days per month when precipitation equaled or exceeded 0.01 inch are listed in Table 2.3-36. Maximum short period precipitation(13) data are shown in Table 2.3-37.
Table 2.3-38 shows monthly frequencies of occurrence of precipitation by time of day at Moisant International Airport for the period 1951 through 1960.
Annual and seasonal precipitation wind rose data were obtained from the 17 year period of record 1949-1965 for the U.S Naval Air Station at New Orleans located about 26 miles ESE of the site(14). Table 2.3-39 presents the percentage frequency of wind direction during precipitation at this station. The data show that the highest annual frequency (13.6 percent) of precipitation occurs when the wind is calm ( < 2 mph) and the lowest annual frequency (1.9 percent) of precipitation occurs with wind directions of WSW and WNW.
2.3.2.1.5 Atmospheric Stability
(EC-1837, R301)
Onsite temperature difference data recorded during the periods July, 1972 through June, 1975 and February 1977 until February 1978 indicate that stable atmospheric conditions (stability classes E, F, and G) occurred about 56 percent of the time and unstable conditions (A, B, and C) occurred about 19 percent of the time. The remaining observations (about 25 percent) fell into the neutral (D) category. The average monthly and annual frequency of the various stability categories (defined in accordance with Safety Guide 23, 2/17/72) for the same period of record are presented in Table 2.3-40. Persistence of certain stable conditions was analyzed for the four years of data gathered. Stable conditions (E, F or G) persisted for up to 47 hours5.439815e-4 days <br />0.0131 hours <br />7.771164e-5 weeks <br />1.78835e-5 months <br /> with longest period occurring in September 1974. Extremely stable conditions (Class G) persisted for 15 hours1.736111e-4 days <br />0.00417 hours <br />2.480159e-5 weeks <br />5.7075e-6 months <br /> on six different occasions - all during the first three years of data in the months October through January.
(EC-1837, R301) 2.3.2.1.6 Mixing Height Data Seasonal morning and afternoon mixing heights as obtained by Holzworth(10) are shown in Table 2.3-41.
As expected, mixing heights are higher in summer than winter; the fall values on the average are slightly higher than spring values. Strong, low inversions are a common phenomenon in the area on winter mornings when the colder Mississippi Delta is surrounded by warmer water.
2.3.2.2 Potential Influence of The Plant and Its Facilities on Local Meteorology The Circulating Water System for the Waterford 3 plant is a once-through system. Although the discharge of warm water from the plant into the receiving water body will result in some small changes in evaporation rates, temperature and relative humidity, the atmospheric effects of plant operation should not be noticeable by the local populace.
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-9 Figure 2.3-27(a) through (d) show profiles of the highest terrain for each directional segment in 16 directions at mile intervals out to 10 miles from the proposed plant. It can be seen from these profiles that the terrain is quite flat in the surrounding area, as it is on all the Mississippi Delta.
Figure 2.3-28 presents a map of the general topographic features that exist within a five mile radius of the proposed plant.
2.3.2.3 Local Meteorological Conditions For Design and Operating Bases The meteorological parameters used as input for the design and operation of the plant (exclusive of radiological considerations) are discussed in Subsection 2.3.1.2.
2.3.3 ONSITE METEOROLOGICAL MEASUREMENTS PROGRAM 2.3.3.1 Preoperational Monitoring Program An onsite preoperational meteorological monitoring program was initiated at the Waterford 3 site on June 11, 1971 in order to evaluate the effects of topography on the diffusion climatology of the site. Data were collected continuously at this site through June of 1975. At that time the tower monitoring program was temporarily discontinued. In February of 1977, the meteorological monitoring program was reactivated and operated until February of 1978 in order that an additional year of site meteorological data would be available to support this Report.
The system consisted of a 130 ft. instrument tower and a temperature controlled shelter at the base of the tower housing the instrument signal conditioning equipment and the digital and analog recording equipment. The installation was located approximately 1760 ft. east of the Reactor Building in a sugar cane field in an essentially flat area ranging in elevation from 12 to 15 ft. MSL. During most of the year the field was clear of vegetation. However, during the late summer and early fall, the canes have stood as high as 8-10 ft. During all seasons, an area of approximately 30 ft. in diameter around the tower was kept clear of all vegetation (see Figure 2.3-29).
2.3.3.1.1 Equipment The Onsite Preoperational Monitoring System consisted of the following equipment:
a)
Meteorological Tower The instruments were mounted on a 130 foot guyed and grounded open lattice triangular tower measuring approximately 12 inches on a side. The tower was a Tri-Ex Model 15 modified by the installation of motorized instrument carriage assemblies. The movable carriage assemblies greatly facilitated instrument inspection, servicing and calibration.
During the period 1971-1975, the wind instruments at each level were mounted on a three foot crossarm at the end of a five foot long boom which was oriented so that it pointed slightly south of west. The aspirated radiation shields were counted on 2 1/2 foot long booms which pointed towards the northwest. With the addition of several meteorological sensors in 1977 a second five foot boom was added to each carriage assembly in place of the 2 1/2 foot boom.
During the 1977-1978 period all
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-10 wind sensors at each level were mounted on three foot crossarms at the end of each boom and each of the four motor aspirated radiation shields were mounted on the same booms roughly 2 1/2 feet from the tower.
b)
Wind Sensors The Waterford 3 Onsite Preoperational Monitoring System was equipped with three wind measurement sensors during the period 1971 through 1975; one at the 30 foot level and two at the 130 foot level. A fourth sensor was added at 30 ft. in 1977.
1)
Thirty Foot Wind Sensors A Weather Measure Corporation W1034 Low Threshold Recording Wind System was installed at the 30 foot level. This system is especially suited for atmospheric diffusion studies and offers a low threshold, high response record of wind direction and windspeed. The system was composed of the following components:
W103/6L low torque, high frequency tachometer, six-cup anemometer with a threshold response of 0.6 mph (0.26 m/s) and a distance constant of five feet.
W104 lightweight vane. Response characteristics for the two-wiper vane are a zero degree dead band, 0.4 percent damping ratio, approximately 3.5 ft.
distance constant, and a 0.75 mph (0.34 m/s) threshold, and W1034/540 degree translator. Signal conditioning, power stabilization, and ranging of the sensor outputs were provided by a 0 to 540 degree translator.
Specifications and a photograph of the W1034 wind system are shown on Figures 2.3-30 through 2.3-32.
In 1977, a Gill Bivane was installed at the 30 foot level to record vertical and horizontal wind directional fluctuations. A description of this bivane is included under part (b) below. Only the directional vane portion was installed.
2)
One Hundred Thirty Foot Primary Wind Sensors A Gill Anemometer Bivane was located at the 130 foot level to record wind direction and speed.
The anemometer bivane is a further development of the well known Gill Bivane. While the wind direction sensitivity characteristics of the bivane have been retained, a windspeed sensor of comparable sensitivity was incorporated as an internal part of the basic instrument for the period 1971 through 1975 only. The vane portion alone was used starting in 1977.
The windspeed sensor was a four-bladed polystyrene foam propeller molded in the form of a true helix providing one revolution for each foot of passing wind. Due to the extreme light weight of the propeller, it had almost negligible inertia thus providing excellent dynamic response both accelerating and decelerating. Threshold sensitivity was 0.3-0.5 mph yet the propeller was rugged enough to withstand winds in excess of 60 mph.
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-11 The propeller drove a miniature dc tachometer generator mounted in the counter-weight section of the vane. The signal was fed through two tiny wires in the vertical shaft to a precision slip ring assembly in the lower section. The signal was then coupled through suitable calibrating and damping circuitry in the power supply translator to the digital data logger. Tachometer life expectancy was in excess of a billion revolutions or three to four years of normal operation.
A synchronous 110 volt, 60 hz external drive motor was supplied with the instrument for calibration of windspeed after installation of the system.
Complete specifications and a photograph of the Gill Anemometer Bivane are shown on Figures 2.3-33 and 2.3-34.
When the reactivation of the meteorological tower took place in February of 1977, a Weather Measure Low Threshold Wind System was installed at the 130 foot level as the primary wind sensor. This sensor is identical to the one discussed above for the 30 ft. wind measurements, except that it has a three-cup anemometer with a distance constant of 7.3 ft.
3)
One Hundred Thirty Foot Backup Wind Sensor A four bladed Weather Measure Corporation W101-P Skyvane 1 Wind Sensor was installed at the 130 foot level as a backup instrument to record windspeed and direction. The starting speed of this instrument is approximately 1 mph (0.45 m/s) with complete tracking beginning at approximately 3 mph (1.35 m/s). The distance constant at a windspeed of 30 mph (13.5 m/s) was 6.2 feet with a time constant of 0.145 second. The accuracy was +/-1 mph below 25 mph and +/-
5 percent above 25 mph. A 540 degree translator was used for signal conditioning. Complete specifications and a photograph of the W101-P Skyvane 1 System are shown on Figures 2.3-35 and 2.3-36.
When the meteorological program was reactivated in February of 1977, the skyvane sensor was deleted from meteorological system.
2.3.3.1.2 Temperature Sensors Temperature difference between the 30 and 130 foot levels was measured by four Weather Measure Corporation TMT-1 temperature probes. Two probes were housed at each level in stainless steel tubes.
A Weather Measure Corporation IS6 Motor Aspirated Radiation Shield provided continuous aspiration of the temperature sensors. This solar radiation shield is constructed of aluminum and painted with white epoxy enamel for maximum reflection of radiant energy.
For the first few years of operation, two of the temperature probes were linked in an electrical bridge to yield direct temperature difference (T) measurements. The other two probes measured temperature directly and were used for backup T measurements. When the system was reestablished in February of 1977, two complete, bridged T621-TP20 T systems were installed and ambient temperature data was extracted electronically at the 30 foot level.
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-12 Revision 303 (06/09)
(EC-1837, R301)
The TMT-1 temperature probe consisted of a thermistor composite and a resistance composite of known resistance value. The TMT-1 sensor had an absolute accuracy of +0.055F and when bridged satisfied the T accuracy requirements of NRC Safety Guide 23 (2/17/72).
(EC-8688, R303)
The T621-TP20 probe was a three-thermistor composite element. The element provided a large change in resistance in response to a relatively small change in temperature. The probe had an accuracy and interchangeability of +/-O.1C (+/-O.18F) and when bridged satisfied the T requirements for Safety Guide 23.
(EC-1837, R301; EC-8688, R303) 2.3.3.1.3 Data Acquisition System A Weather Measure M731 Digital Data Logger was originally used to scan, digitize and record the input data. The data logger checked all sensors once every five minutes and recorded the instantaneous data on punched paper tape.
Complete specifications and a photograph of the M731 appear on Figures 2.3-37 and 2.3-38, respectively.
In February 1973 an Analog Data Acquisition System was installed at the site as a backup for the Digital System. The Analog System consisted of two Weather Measure REW-2P-12V Potentiometric Recorders and one Weather Measure REW-12-3 Potentiometric Recorder. The Analog Data Acquisition System continuously recorded windspeed, wind direction and temperature at the 30 and 130 foot levels and differential temperature between the levels.
In February of 1977, when the system was reactivated, two important data acquisition changes were made. First, the paper tape recorder was replaced with a magnetic tape recorder. Second, the scanning rate of the data logger was changed from once every five minutes to once per minute. Additionally, averaging cards were added to the W1034 wind circuitry to yield 60 second average, rather than one minute instantaneous values for the wind speed and direction data measured by these sensors.
These changes allowed the monitored data to provide a better representation of hourly conditions since the more rapid scanning rate of the data logger more closely approaches true integration of all the data.
This effect was further enhanced by the averaging cards used with the wind direction and windspeed sensors since averages generated by these circuits were based upon a sampling (scanning) rate of several times per second. Overall equipment accuracies are presented in Table 2.3-138.
2.3.3.1.4 Overall System Accuracies The overall system accuracies associated with the meteorological parameters recorded at the Waterford 3 site are presented in Table 2.3-138. These overall accuracies included the accuracies associated with the instrumentation i.e., sensor probes, signal conditioners, electronic averaging circuitry (as applicable),
digital data logger and potentiometric chart recorder (as applicable), and data processing procedures (specifically, chart trace reading errors). The overall accuracy of each one hour average in Table 2.3-138 is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the component accuracies described above, divided by the square root of the number of samples used to define the one hour average. It should be noted that a slight decrease in the overall system accuracies of the W103 and W104 wind sensors occurred with the 1977-1978 data because electronic averaging circuits (with their
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-13 Revision 301 (09/07) intrinsic accuracies) were retrofitted to these sensors only.
2.3.3.1.5 Quality Control and System Maintenance
(EC-1837, R301)
In order to assure the necessary data recovery of greater than 90 percent as specified by NRC Safety Guide 23 the monitoring system was inspected each workday by an employee of the Louisiana Power &
Light Company. Additionally, a more thorough check of all instruments was made at each magnetic tape and strip chart change, and the entire system was checked and calibrated on a regular 90 day schedule by a qualified vendor representative.
(EC-1837, R301) 2.3.3.1.6 Data Processing The meteorological data acquired at the site was placed on disc file in the Ebasco Services Incorporated computer center. After a quality control check hourly averages were generated from valid instantaneous or averaged data points taken during the hour. During the period 1971-1975 only those hours with a minimum of six instantaneous observations (taken at five minute intervals) of lower level windspeed, wind direction and temperature difference were considered as "valid" hours of data. After 1977, when the meteorological system was upgraded, 60 data points taken once per minute were averaged to form hourly values. Only hours with a minimum of 15 consecutive minutes of temperature difference, and lower level windspeed and direction data were considered "valid" during this period.
One exception to this procedure occurred during several relatively brief periods of data logger malfunction when data were taken at ten minute intervals. Data from these periods were considered valid provided that all six of the observations taken during the hour were present. This procedure was considered acceptable since the observations were evenly distributed throughout the hour and since it was consistent with the practice followed during the 1971-1975 monitoring period of using a minimum of six observations to represent an hour of valid data. These valid hourly values were used to prepare the monthly and annual joint frequency distributions of wind direction and speed by stability class.
Occasionally, a failure in the digital data acquisition system would require reliance upon the backup data acquisition system for short periods of data. These data were subjected to the same rigorous quality control inspection as the digital data and then were digitized to hourly average values which were inserted into the hourly average data base in place of the missing or erroneous data from the data logger.
(Data for which no backup was available were replaced by 999 in the database.)
During the 1972-1975 monitoring period, strip chart data were digitized manually by a professional meteorologist. Digitizing of strip chart data during the 1977-1978 monitoring period was performed by Envirodata Corporation of Burlington, Massachusetts using electronic digitizing equipment. The hourly values were returned on computer punch cards for merging with the hourly database.
Less than 10 percent of the data collected during the 1972-1975 monitoring period was acquired by digitizing of strip charts. During the 1977-1978 monitoring period approximately two months (17 percent) of the hourly data were obtained from the analog data acquisition system.
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-14 Revision 301 (09/07) 2.3.3.1.7 Joint Wind/Stability Data
(EC-1837, R301)
Tables 2.3-42 through 2.3-132 are monthly average and annual average joint frequency tables (windspeed/wind direction/stability class) for the four years of record July 1972 through June 1975 and February 1977 to February 1978. The tables are based upon wind data collected at the 30 foot level of the Waterford 3 meteorological tower and upon data for the temperature difference between 130 ft. and 30 ft. The temperature difference data were converted to stability class summaries using the procedures outlined in Safety Guide 23. Data recovery percentages for the onsite program on a monthly basis are summarized in Table 2.3-133.
(EC-1837, R301)
As indicated earlier, onsite meteorological data is available for four full annual cycles, three from July of 1972 through June of 1975 and one from mid-February of 1977 to mid-February of 1978. Sufficient data thus exists to determine the diffusion characteristics of the Waterford 3 site without the need for consideration of offsite data sources or data representativeness.
2.3.3.2 Operational Monitoring Program This section describes the monitoring program that is currently established and will be utilized by Louisiana Power & Light Company during the operation of Waterford 3. The operational monitoring program will be a continuation, for the most part of the monitoring program conducted prior to the operation of Waterford 3. The preoperational monitoring program has been described in detail in Subsection 2.3.3.1.
(DRN 01-156, R11-A;02-217, R11-A; EC-1837, R301)
The operational phase Meteorological Monitoring Program is designed to comply with the NRC requirements presented in Regulatory Guide 1.23 proposed Revision 1 (September 1980) concerning meteorological monitoring systems at nuclear power plants and NUREG-0654 Revision 1 (November 1980) concerning emergency response plans and preparedness. The Onsite Meteorological Monitoring Program is comprised of two completely independent monitoring systems, designated as the Primary and Backup Meteorological Monitoring Systems. A generalized plot plan of the Meteorological Monitoring System compound and the site specific location of the primary and backup system compounds are presented on Figures 2.3-46 and 2.3-47 respectively. Each system consists of an equipment shelter and a meteorological tower with associated instrumentation. The Primary and Backup Meteorological Monitoring Systems are also equipped with an independent power supply, lightning protection equipment, electronic signal conditioning and communication cables which link the equipment at the shelters with the Plant Monitoring Computer (PMC). Values of meteorological parameters are simultaneously recorded on Data Loggers located in each of the equipment shelters and by the PMC. The redundancy between these independent monitoring systems as well as the distance separating the two compounds, (1200 ft.
approximately 4 times the mean path width of a site specific tornado), is provided to ensure that basic meteorological information will be available to the plant operators during and immediately following any potential accidental airborne radiological release. The Meteorological Monitoring System will provide updated meteorological data to the Plant Monitoring Computer (PMC). The software on the PMC will quality assure and store the data. The PMC software will provide the data to the Control Room, Technical Support Center, Emergency Operations Facility, and the Backup Emergency Operations Facility. In the event of an emergency situation at the Waterford 3 plant, real time 15 minute average meteorological data on the PMC will be used by an atmospheric transport and diffusion model to calculate offsite

¨(DRN 02-217) radiological dose estimates. (See the Waterford 3 Emergency Plan for more detailed information).
(DRN 02-217) 2.3.3.2.1 Objectives The important objectives of the operational Meteorological Monitoring Program include provision of the following:
a)
Real time data to be used as input for radiological diffusion estimates in the event of an accidental release of radioactive material into the atmosphere; b)
Data to be combined with previously collected data in order to continually update and archive the onsite meteorological record used for long-term (normal release) radiological diffusion estimates; and c)
Correlation between atmospheric diffusion conditions and the Environmental Surveillance Program.
2.3.3.2.2 Equipment The onsite monitoring system consists of the following equipment:
a)
Meteorological Towers
¨(DRN 01-156)
The monitoring system utilizes a 200 ft. (61 m) tower at the primary system compound and a 200 ft.
(61 m) tower at the backup system. Both towers are open lattice, guyed and grounded structures equipped with pulley elevator systems for raising and lowering sensors during maintenance, calibration and servicing. Standard boom arms, approximately 8 feet in length (and oriented into the prevailing wind directions are located at 33 ft.(10 m), 199 ft. (61.6 m) on the primary and backup towers. The prevailing wind direction is not readily apparent on the annual wind rose for Waterford 3 (Figure 2.3-26), however it shows equal predominance of SE and NE winds as well as minimal frequency of WSW through WNW winds. Therefore the boom arms are pointed on the east direction from the tower to minimize the frequency of wind blowing through the tower lattice toward the sensors. A summary of the meteorological parameters measured at each compound (primary and backup) is presented in Table 2.3-139.
b)
Wind Sensors The monitoring system is equipped with Wind Sensors. The wind speed sensors meet the RG 1.23 performance requirements summarized in Table 2.3-141.
Wind Direction The monitoring system is equipped with Wind Direction Sensors. The wind direction sensors meet the RG 1.23 performance requirements summarized in Table 2.3-141.
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-16 Revision 11-A (02/02)
¨(DRN 01-156) c)
Temperature Sensors Measurements of temperature difference between the 33 and 199 ft. (10 and 61.6 m) levels and of ambient temperature at 33 ft. (10 m) are made within performance requirements specified in Table 2.3-141.
d)
Precipitation Precipitation is measured by a recording rain gauge. The performance of this gauge meets requirements summarized in Table 2.3-141.
e)
Data Acquisition System The acquisition of the meteorological data from the Primary and Backup Meteorological Monitoring Systems is accomplished via a data link to the Plant Monitoring Computer System (PMC). The program averages data from the Environmental Monitoring System. The incoming data undergoes quality assurance checks for validity and are flagged if obvious errors are detected. The flag which is assigned to each data point indicates whether the data are valid, invalid, or suspicious. In the event of an accidental release of high levels of radiation at the plant, the quality assured 15 minute averages of meteorological parameters which are used to calculate offsite radiological dose estimates in compliance with NUREG-0654. (See the Waterford 3 Emergency Plan for more detailed information.)
(DRN 01-156) f)
Overall System Accuracies The overall system accuracies associated with the meteorological parameters at the Waterford 3 site are compared to NRC requirements and are presented in Table 2.3-141. These overall accuracies include the accuracies associated with the instrumentation
WSES-FSAR-UNIT-3 2.3-17 Revision 14 (12/05) and electronic signal conditioning. The overall accuracy is equal to the root of the sum of the squares of the individual errors associated with the components described above.
(DRN 03-2055, R14) 2.3.4 SHORT-TERM (ACCIDENT) DIFFUSION ESTIMATES 2.3.4.1 Objective Five years of onsite meteorological data from the WSES facility, 1997 through 2001, was used to evaluate the accident meteorology for the Waterford area. Accidents are postulated to characterize upper limit concentrations and dosages that might occur in the event of an inadvertent release. Among the basic inputs to the accident analysis are the meteorological conditions that determine the dilution capacity of the atmosphere.
2.3.4.2 Calculations - Offsite Diffusion Estimates Dilution factors (X/Qs) for ground level releases were determined using the methodology presented in Regulatory Guide 1.145 (Reference 25). The X/Q values applicable for accident releases were calculated at the exclusion area boundary (EAB) and at the outer boundary of the low population zone (LPZ) using the joint frequency distributions of wind speed and wind direction by atmospheric stability class. The EAB and LPZ distances are 914 meters and 3,200 meters, respectively. Winds were determined at the 10-meter level and the stability class was based on the vertical temperature gradient between 10 meters and 60 meters.
Atmospheric dispersion values (X/Q values) as functions of direction for various time periods at the exclusion area boundary (EAB) and the outer boundary of the low population zone (LPZ), were determined by the use of the computer code PAVAN. The X/Q calculations are based on the theory that material released to the atmosphere will be normally distributed (Gaussian) about the plume centerline.
A straight-line trajectory is assumed between the point of release and all distances for which X/Q values are calculated (References 25, 26). Using joint frequency distributions of wind direction and wind speed by atmospheric stability, the PAVAN code provides the X/Q values as functions of direction for various time periods at the EAB and LPZ.
The PAVAN code manual (Reference 26) divides release configurations into two modes, ground release and stack release. A ground release includes all release points that are effectively lower than two and one-half times the height of the adjacent solid structures. The identified release point to be evaluated at Waterford 3 is effectively lower than two and one-half times the height of the reactor building (61.0 meters). Therefore, the Waterford 3 release mode is classified as a ground release.
Within the ground level release class, two sets of meteorological conditions are treated differently. During neutral (D) or stable (E, F, or G) atmospheric stability conditions when the wind speed at the 10-meter level is less than 6 meters per second (m/s), horizontal plume meander is considered. X/Q values are determined through the selective use of the following set of equations for ground-level relative concentrations at the plume centerline.

is the smallest vertical-plane cross-sectional area of the reactor building, in meters 2
PAVAN calculates X/Q values using Equations 1, 2, and 3. The values from Equations 1 and 2 are compared and the higher value is selected. This value is then compared with the value from Equation 3, and the lower value of these two is selected as the appropriate X/Q value.
During all other meteorological conditions, unstable (A, B, or C) atmospheric stability and/or 10-meter level wind speeds of 6 m/s or more, plume meander is not considered. The higher value calculated from equation 1 or 2 is used as the appropriate X/Q value.
From these results, PAVAN constructs a cumulative probability distribution of X/Q values for each of the 16 directional sectors. This distribution is the probability of the given X/Q values being exceeded in that sector during the total time. The sector X/Q values and the maximum sector X/Q value is determined by effectively plotting the X/Q versus probability of being exceeded and selecting the X/Q value that is exceeded 0.5% of the total time. This same method is used to determine the 5% overall site X/Q value.
Table 2.3-136 presents the 0.5% maximum and five percent atmospheric dispersion coefficients calculated for the plant exclusion area boundary and the outer boundary of the low population zone.
2.3.4.3 Calculations - Onsite Diffusion Estimates The atmospheric dispersion estimates for the Waterford 3 control room were calculated based on the guidance provided in draft Regulatory Guide 1111 (Reference 28). The control room X/Qs were calculated for all probable release points (e.g., east and west side ADVs and main steam safety valves (MSSVs) to both control room emergency air intakes using the ARCON96 computer code (Reference 27) using the hourly meteorological data for the years 1997 through 2001. The approximate locations of the assumed release points and approximate locations of the control room intakes are shown on Figure 2.3-48. In all cases, the intervening structures between the release point and the control room intake were ignored for calculational simplicity, thereby underestimating the true distance to the control room intakes. Atmospheric stability was determined by the vertical temperature difference (T) measured over the difference in measurement height and the stability classes given in Regulatory Guide 1.23 (Ref. 29). All releases were assumed to be point ground-level releases. For each of the source-to-receptor combinations, the X/Q value that is not exceeded more than 5.0 percent of the total hours in the meteorological data set (e.g., 95-percentile X/Q) was determined. The X/Q values for source-receptor pairs are shown in Table 2.3-136. Historical graphically frequency distributions are presented in Figures 2.3-41 through 2.3-45.

These Parameters were used as input to a computerized Gaussian diffusion model which calculates annual average X/Q values for distances out to 80.5 kilometers from Waterford 3. The basic equation used in this diffusion model is:

N/A = Not Applicable Since the method used to define each average depended on the specific parameter and the structure of the chart trace, the overall system accuracy presented here conservatively assumes one sample reading defines the one hour average.
Since the method used to define each average utilized six to ten sample readings, the overall system accuracy presented here conservatively assumes six sample readings defines each one hour average.
