Your Technical Specifications require reporting of off-site doses for 1982.

Inquiries received from some licens'ees indicate there is a need for additional guidance on liow you should report doses to members of the public.

Accordingly, the enclosed guidance has been prepared for your use in order to achieve both simplicity and consistency in reporting.

If you have any questions on this matter, please contact the NRC Project Manager for your facility.

Sincerely, Original signed by:

~Pur ose ENCLOSURE GUIDAHCE OH REPORTING OFF-SITE RADIATIOH DOSES FROf I NORllAL OPERATION OF NUCLEAR POWE PLANTS s

Off-site radiation doses from normal operation of some nuclear power plants must be reported'nnually to satisfy the requirements of the technical specifications.

The reports are intended to demonstrate compliance with (1) the dose design objectives of 10CFR50 Appendix I, and (2) the requirements of 40CFR190.

The purpose of this document is to provide guidance on the repor'ts to simplify reporting, assure that minimum reouirements are met, and provide consistency in reports from different licensees.

The purpose of the annual report is to summarize the calculations performed during the year to show compliance with Appendix I and with 40CFR190 related tech specs.

Consequently, only the maximum calculated doses to individuals need to be reported.

Appendix I dose design objectives are stated both for calendar quarters and for years;

thus, both should be reported.

Appendix I states criteria for 3 cateoories of effluents (liquid, airborne iodines and particulates, and airborne noble gases);

the doses should be reported accordingly.

The information should be presented as indicated in Table 1

Where doses reported in Table 1 exceed the Appendix I criteria, an:

explanation should be provided.

Compliance with the 40CFR190 dose limits must be addressed explicitly.

If the doses reported in Table 1 clearly are below the 40CFR190 limits, all that needs to be added are statements addressing doses from other fuel cyclei sacilities.

In most cases, this requirement is satisfied by statements that there are no other fuel cycle facilities within 8 km.

• "Haximum" means the largest fraction of the 'corresponding Appendix I dose de'sign objective.

• • "Haximum" dose for the year may not equal the sum of the quarterly maximum doses because the doses may be to different organs or may occur at different places.

• • • The numbered footnotes briefly explain how each maximum dose was calculated, including the organ and the predominant pathway(s).

Example of Numbered Footnote:

1. Total body dose, primarily by fish path~ay.
