RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM TABLE NOTATIONS (1) Specific parameters of distance and direction from the centerline of the midpoint of the two units and additional description where pertinent, shall be provided for each and every sample location in Table R12.5.1-1, except for vegetation.
For vegetation (both food product and vegetation exposure pathways), due to location variability year to year, the parameters of distance and direction shall be provided in the Annual Environmental Operating Report. (2) Far field samples are analyzed when the respective near field sample results are inconsistent with previous measurements and radioactivity is confirmed as having its origin in airborne effluents from the station, or at the discretion of the ODCM Specialist.
(3) Airborne particulate sample filters shall be analyzed for gross beta radioactivity 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or more after sampling to allow for radon and thoron daughter decay. If gross beta activity in air particulate samples is greater than 10 times the yearly mean of control samples, gamma isotopic analysis shall be performed on the individual samples. (4) Gamma isotopic analysis means the identification and quantification of gamma emitting radionuclides that may be attributable to the effluents from the station. (5) One or more instruments, such as a pressurized ion chamber, for measuring and recording dose rate continuously may be used in place of, or in addition to, integrating dosimeters.
Film badges shall not be used as dosimeters for measuring direct radiation.
The 40 locations is not an absolute number. The number of direct radiation monitoring stations may be reduced according to geographical limitations; e.g., if a station is adjacent to a lake, some sectors may be over water thereby reducing the number of dosimeters that could be placed at the indicated distances.
The frequency of analysis or readout for Field Dosimeter systems will depend upon the of the specific system used and should be selected to obtain optimum dose information with minimal fading. (6) Groundwater samples shall be taken when this source is tapped for drinking or irrigation purposes in areas where the hydraulic gradient or recharge properties are suitable for contamination.
(7) The "downstream" sample shall be taken in an area beyond but near the mixing zone. The "upstream sample" shall be taken at a distance beyond significant influence of the discharge.
Upstream samples in an estuary must be taken far enough upstream to be beyond the station influence.
(8) If milking animals are not found in the designated indicator locations, or if the owners decline to participate in the REMP, all milk sampling may be discontinued.
See the vegetation exposure pathway for additional sampling requirements.
(9) 1-131 analysis means the analytical separation and counting procedure are specific for this radionuclide.
(10) One sample shall consist of a volume/weight of sample large enough to fill contractor specified container.
(11) The provisions of RSR 12.0.2 and RSR 12.0.3 are not applicable to the REMP.
