Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity Described below are the methods used to measure or approximate the total radioactivity and radionuclide composition in effluents.

A)

Fission and Activation Gases:

Noble gas effluent activity is determined by on-line gamma spectroscopic monitoring

<intrinsic germanium crystal) or gross activity monitoring (calibrated against gamma isotopic analysis of a 4.0L Harinelli sample) of an isokinetic stack sample stream.

B)

Iodines:

Iodine effluent activity is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis

<at least weekly) of charcoal cartridges manually or automatically sampled from an isokinetic stack sample stream.

(Cont'd)

C)

Particulates:

Activity released from main stack is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis (at least weekly) of particulate filters manually or automatically sampled Erom an isokinetic sample stream.

For emergency condenser vent batch

releases, efEluent curie quantities are estimated by subtracting activity remaining in the shell side of the emergency condenser after batch release from activity delivered to the shell from Make-Up sources.

Actual isotopic concentrations are found via gamma spectroscopy.

Batch release activities of Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55 are estimated by applying scaling factors to activity concentrations of gamma emitters.

The activity of tritium released during normal operation or during batch releases is conservatively estimated by multiplying recent condensate storage tank H-3 activity by assumed steaming rates out the vents.

D)

Tritium:

Tritium effluent activity is estimated by liquid scintillation or gas proportional counting oE monthly samples taken with an air sparging/water trap apparatus, E)

Liquid Effluents:

Isotopic analysis of a representative sample of each batch and composite analysis of non-gamma emitters.

F)

Solid Effluents:

Isotopic contents of waste shipments are determined by gamma spectroscopy, gross alpha and water content analyses of a

representative sample of each batch.

Scaling factors established from primary composite sample analyses conducted off-site are

applied, where appropriate, to find estimated concentration of non-gamma emitters.

For low activity trash shipments, curie content is estimated by dose rate measurement and application of appropriate scaling factors.

SUMMARY

OF CHANGES TO THE OFF-SITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL JANUARY JUNE In accordance with Section 6.9.l.e of the Nine Mile Point 1

Technical Specifications, this Table (a) describes and provides justification for recent changes to the Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual (Revisions 5

and 6) and (b) explains why these changes will not adversely affect the accuracy or reliability of off-site dose calculations or monitor alarm setpoint determinations.

Attachment 2 to this document provides copies of Revisions 4 and 6 to the Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual.

The Revision 6 copy also shows changes made in Revision 5.

All revisions to the Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual were reviewed and accepted by authorized station personnel in accordance with applicable Administrative Procedures and Section 6.5.2 of the Technical Specifications.

Review and approval documentation is affixed to the front side of Attachment 2.

Most of the changes made to the ODCM were in response to an independent SRAB audit conducted on the Unit 1 ODCM by KLM Engineering in 1987.

4 SECTION CHANGED DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE JUSTIFICATION AFFECT ON ACCURACY/

Typographical corrections were made in the Alarm setpoint calculation formula and in the Required Dilution Factor definition.

None 2.1.4.3, page 7

Independent audit conducted by KLM Engineering for NMPC discovered that references made to a sparger spray ring assembly were in error.

The section was therefore deleted.

Actual arrange-ment involves two eductors and one pump providing a total recirculation flow of 300 gpm.

There is no affect since adequate recirculation of the tank volume prior to sampling is provided using the eductors.

2.1.4.5, page 10 The general approach used to estimate H-3, Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55 concen-trations in the event the service water system is contaminated was specified.

Supervisory discretion was applied since, depending on the source of contami-nation, projected concen-trations may vary.

Accuracy/reliability of dose calculations and alarm setpoint determina-tions is improved since the most accurate pro-jected concentrations of non-gamma emitters are applied to the calculations.

4 SECTION CHANGED DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE JUSTIFICATION AFFECT ON ACCURACY/

REf IABILITYOF DOSE CALCULATIONS/ALARMSETPOXNT DETERMINATIONS 3.1.1, page 19 Revision 4 did not specify which monitor alarm set-points would remain fixed during outage periods.

In Revision 5, stack and offgas monitors were specified.

This change was a clarifica-tion only, therefore, dose calculations and alarm set-point methodologies were unaffected.

3.1.2, page 20 Highest land sector, site boundary X/Q value in Revision 4 was incorrect and inconsistent with the X/Q value provided in Table 3.1.

Therefore, the section was changed to simply reference Table 3.1.

The change had no bearing, on dose calculations or alarm setpoints since proper X/Q values were used in calculations.

3.1.3, page 22 3.1.3, page 23 "R.KR" was typographi-cally corrected to

"(R)(KR)"

Per NRC recommendation of R. Struckmeyer (NRC Inspection 87-06) the relationship between the offgas monitor setpoint determination and the consequent offsite dose needed explanation.

A statement describing the relationship between these two terms was therefore added (and is consistent with NMP-1 Technical Specification Bases).

None This statement provided serves to clarify the relationship between offgas monitor setpoints and off-site doses only.

There is no affect on accuracy or reliability of either alarm setpoints or offsite doses.

Typographical corrections were made to include proper dose rate units and summation signs.

None Accuracy of dose calcula-tions/alarm setpoints is improved by this change since iodine data used in the calculation should be more accurate.

None 3.2.12, pages 33 and 34 The target particulate and iodine release rate value used to trigger dose rate calculations was r'aised from 1E-02 to 3E-01 yCi/sec since the previous value was overly conservative.

Dose/alarm setpoint calcula-tions remain unchanged.

Reliability of dose rate calculations should not be affected since the new target release rate value will still trigger dose calculations prior to exceeding Technical Spec-ification limits.

SUMMARY

OF CHANGES TO THE METEOROLOGICAL MONITORING SYSTEM JANUARY JUNE The Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station (including the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant) has improved its processing of wind direction data this reporting period.

This was accomplished by the replacement of 360 degree wind direction processors with 540 degree wind direction processors.

The 540 degree processing of wind direction is state of the art and affords improved readability of north winds on analog wind direction recorders.

All other aspects of the system remain the same.

PROBLEMS WITH THE NMPl STACK EPPLUENT MONITORXNG SYSTEM:

CAUSES AND CORRECTIVE ACTIONS JANUARY JUNE The causes and corrective actions for several design deficiencies existing in NMPl's high range stack monitoring

system, RAGEMS, were identiFied and outlined in the July-December 1987 Semi-Annual Report.

Although progress has been made in correcting these design deficiencies, additional modiFications are still necessary to upgrade the system to a

more reliable condition oF operation.

It should be

noted, however, that the stack monitoring requirements, as defined in Section 3.6.14.b of the Radiological Environmental Technical Specifications (RETS),

were met using the Old General Electric Stack Monitoring System (OGESMS).

Furthermore, RAGEMS was available for meeting TMI IX.F.l.l monitoring requirements from January through May in the 1988 reporting period.

Subsequent to May 1988, the system was rendered inoperable to perform modifications during the outage.

Current plans are to continue with these modifications through 1988 and 1989.

Although (a)

OGESMS, (b) an interim high range stack telector monitor, and (c) environmental sample survey team data are available to supplement monitoring when RAGEMS is inoperable, the OGESMS does not have a sufficient range to satisFy TMI IX.F.l.l monitoring requirements during post-LOCA drywell venting.

Therefore, it is our intent to maintain RAGEMS availability during most periods of commercial operation to meet monitoring requirements.

STACK MONITORING SYSTEM ModiFication U date The following is an update of recent modifications and design changes made to date on

RAGEMS, and a

summary of modiFications needed to complete the entire system upgrade:

1.

Developed a

new PSID to convey more detailed information on a

complex system to enhance system operation.

2.

Completely revised the system's radiation alarming logic to include both the Radiological Gas Effluent Monitoring System (RAGEMS) and the OGESMS to Facilitate operator response.

This design package is complete and awaiting site approval for installation.

Installation is expected by the end of 1988.

Designed flow alarming capabilities from the RAGEMS unit to the plant's main Control Room.

Installation is expected prior to plant restart.

4.

Replacement of RAGEMS'ennelec Count Rate Meter to eliminate the periodic spiking signals.

Installation of a new count rate meter is expected prior to plant restart.

5.

Improved operator interface with the system's parameters by increasing the ability to chart/record the system's operation.

This design package will be issued for construction by the end of 1988 and includes:

A.

Placing the existing OGESMS radiation signals (counts per second) on new recorders.

6.

B.

Addition of new parameters to be recorded (e.g.,

the RAGEMS radiation release

rate, OGESMS system flow, RAGEMS system flow and total stack flow).

Installation of a

permanent power supply for the air conditioner in cabinet t4 of RAGEMS.

This design package was issued for construction in late February 1988 and is awaiting installation by the Site Electrical Department in September 1988.

7.

Installation of cables for future expansion of the system.

This design package was issued for construction in late June 1988 and should be installed in September 1988.

8.

Installation of remote manual switches to the RAGFMS dilution system to manually override the RAGEMS process computer.

The design of this work is currently being worked on with a projected completion date by the end of 1988.

Installation is expected in 1989.

9 Provide RAGEMS with the capability to isolate the plant's containment vent and purge valves.

OGESMS currently has this isolation capability.

The design of this modification is in progress with a

projected completion date in 1988.

Installation is expected in 1989.

10.

Replacement of the flow control valves with RAGEMS.

The design of this work is in progress with an anticipated completion date by the end of 1988.

Installation is expected prior to restart.
