EFFLUENT AND WASTE DISPOSAL SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
- 1. Regulatory Limits For Liquid Waste Effluents A. The concentration of radioactive material released from the site shall be limited to the concentrations specified in 10 CFR Part 20 Appendix B, Table II, Column 2 for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 2E-4 micro-Curies/ml total activity.
B The dose or dose commitment to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from radioactive material in liquid effluents released, from each reactor unit, to UNRESTRICTED AREAS shall be limited to:
During any calendar quarter to <= 1.5 mrems to the Total Body and to <= 5 mrems to any organ, and During any calendar year to <= 3 mrems to'the Total Body and to <= 10 mrems to any organ.
1.'2 For Gaseous Waste Effluents:
A. The dose rate in UNRESTRICTED AREAS due to radioactive materials released in gaseous effluents from the site shall be limited to:
For Noble Gases: <= 500 mrems/yr to the total body and
<= 3000 mrems/yr to the skin, and For Iodine-131, Iodine-133, Tritium, and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days:
1500 mrems/yr to any organ.
- BE The air dose due to noble gases released in gaseous effluents from each reactor unit, to areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY shall be limited to the following:
During any calendar quarter, to <= 5 mrads for gamma radiation,and
<= 10 mrads for beta radiation and, during any calendar year to
<= 10 mrads for gamma radiation and <= 20 mrads for beta radiation.
- CD The dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from Iodine-131, Iodine-133, Tritium, and all radionuclides in particulate form, with half lives > 8 Days in gaseous effluents released, from each reactor unit to areas at and beyond the site boundary, shall be limited to the following:
During any calendar quarter to <= 7.5 mrem to any organ, and During any calendar year to <= 15 mrem to any organ. 'I
- The calculated doses contained in a semi-annual report shall not apply to any STS LCO. The reported values are based on actual release conditions instead of historical conditions that the STS LCO dose calculations are based on. The STS LCO dose limits are therefore included in Item 1 of the report, for information only
EFFLUENT AND WASTE DISPOSAL SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (Continued)
- 2. Maximum Permissible Concentrations Water: As per 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, except for entrained or dissolved noble gases as described in 1.1.A of this report.
Air: Release concentrations are limited to dose rate limits described in 1.2.A. of this report.,
- 3. Average Energy of fission and activation gases in gaseous effluents is not applicable.
- 4. Measurements and approximations of total radioactivity Where alpha, tritium, and listed nuclides are shown as zero Curies released, this should be interpreted as "no activity was detected on the samples using the Plant Technical Specification analyses techniques to achieve required Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) sensitivity for radioactive effluents".
A summary of liquid effluent accounting methods is described in Table 3.1.
A summary of gaseous effluent accounting methods is described in Table 3.2.
- 4. 1 Estimate of Errors LIQUID GASEOUS Error Topic Avg o ~o Max.% Avg.o Max.o Release Point Mzxxng 5 NA NA Sampling 5 2 5 Sample Preparation 5 1 5 Sample Analysis 10 3 10 Release Volume 5 4 15 Total 0 9 30 10 35 The predictability of error for radioactive releases can only be applied'o nuclides that are predominant in sample spectrums.
Nuclides that are near background relative to the predominant nuclides in a given sample could easily have errors greater than the above listed maximums.

SOLID WASTE SUPPLEMENT Note 1: The total curie quantity and radionuclide composition of solid waste shipped from the St. Lucie Plant, Units 1 and 2 are determined using a combination of qualitative and quantitative techniques. In general, the St. Lucie Plant follows the quidelines outlined in the Low Level Waste
.Licensing Branch Technical Position (BTP) on Radioactive Waste Classification (5/11/83) for these determinations.
The most frequently used techniques for determining the total curie quantity in a package are the dose to curie methods and the (concentration) x (volume or mass) calculations. Where appropriate, engineering type activation analyses may be applied. Since each of the above methodologies involves to some extent qualitative parameters, the total curie quantity is considered to be an estimate.
The composition of radionuclides in* the waste is determined by both on-site analyses for principal gamma emitters and periodic off-site analyses for other radionuclides. The on-site analyses are performed either on a batch basis or on a routine basis using reasonably representative samples as appropriate for the waste type.
Off-site analyses are used to establish scaling factors or other estimates for radionuclides such as 3H, 14C, 99TC, 129I, TRU, 241Pu, 242Cm, 63Ni, 55Fe, and 90Sr.
Note 2: "Principal Radionuclides" refer to those radionuclides contained in the waste in concentrations greater than .01 times the concentration of the nuclides listed in Table 1 or .01 times the smallest concentration of the nuclides listed in Table 2 of 10 CFR 61.
Note 3: "Type of Waste" is generally specified as described in NUREG 0782, Draft Environment Impact Statement on 10 CFR 61, "Licensing Requirements for Land Disposal of Radioactive Waste".
Note 4: "Type of Container" refers to the transport package.
Note 5: The volume and activity listed for Dry Compressible Waste and Soil/Grit represent the quantity of material that during the reporting period was sent to the Barnwell, South Carolina burial facility. This material was shipped to a contracted vendor for volume reduction prior to final disposal at the Barnwell, South Carolina burial facility. During the reporting period, four shipments of
e (
d
Dry Compressible Waste (3,680 cubic feet, 9.377E-1 curies) and contaminated soil (276 cubic feet, 9.050E-5 curies) were made from the St. Lucie Plant to the volume reduction facility. This material was shipped via "Sole Use Truck" in non-specification strong tight packages.
The volume and activity listed for non-compressible metal and soil/grit represent the quantity of material that during the reporting period could not be recycled by the contracted vendor and required disposal at the Barnwell, South Carolina burial facility. During the reporting period, seven shipments of non-compressible metal waste (1,740 cubic feet, 5.772E-2 curies), secondary bead resin (1,241 cubic feet, 7.695E-4 curies) and soil/grit (1,288 cubic feet, 1.162E-3 curies) were made from the St. Lucie Plant to the volume reduction facility. This material was shipped via "Sole Use Truck" in non-specification strong tight packages.

(Reguired by Technical Specification 6.13)
~d During the reporting period changes were made to the St. Lucie Plant Process Control Program, Administrative Procedure No.
0520025. These changes were reviewed by the Facility Review Group (FRG) on June 9, 1992, and approved by the St. Lucie Plant General Manager on June 12, 1992.
The procedure was changed to authorize the use of the Pacific Waste System Group's Resin Drying (dewatering) system. The rationale for the changes was as follows:
1~ This change would allow the use of an alternative resin transfer/drying/dewatering system that produces a waste form that meets the criteria of 10 CFR 61 and the Barnwell, South Carolina disposal facility.
- 2. By having an alternative method of drying/dewatering spent resins, the licensee would not be tied to one vendor for disposal liners and/or transport packaging.
3 ~ The time needed to dewater/dry resins could be reduced.
This, in turn, would minimize the time that a transport packaging would be held on-site. This would effectively reduce the cost associated with the transportation of radioactive waste. Also, it would make that transport packaging available for the licensee and other users on a more timely basis.
4 Finally, with the potential loss of the Barnwell, South Carolina disposal facility imminent, the licensee wanted to secure an alternative method of drying spent resins that would produce a waste form that could be recovered and/or reprocessed as necessary to meet the future disposal site waste form criteria.
To ensure conformance to existing disposal waste form criteria, the licensee did the following:
Received and reviewed the Nuclear Packaging Proprietary Topical Report "TP-02-P-A for Resin Drying" as submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
2 ~ Had the dewatering system vendor come to the St. Lucie Plant to evaluate the various spent resin waste streams and plant resin samples. These evaluations were performed by an engineering representative of the vendor to determine the suitability of the resin drying system for use at the St. Lucie Plant, and where applicable, to determine appropriate processing times and relative humidity end points for each of the resin waste streams as evaluated.
- 3. Had the vendor provide the services of a Field Project Manager to the St. Lucie Plant Health Physics/Radwaste staff to train them on the proper operation of the resin
transfer/drying/dewatering system.
