ATTACHMENT TO AEP:NRC:0678B ITEM III.A.2,2.
(EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS-METEOROLOGICAL DATA)
This item is concerned with three subjects'.
(1) Meteorological
.Measurements
- Program, (2) Class A Dose Assessment Capability, and (3)
Class B Dose Assessment Capability.
METEOROLOGICAL HEASUREMENTS PROGRAM We have been informed that the NRC has recently conducted a series of tests along Lake Michigan at the Kewaunee Nuclear Plant between May 28 and June 8, 1982.
It is our understanding that the purpose of these studies was to evaluate different meteorological dispersion models and to determine the optimum number of meteorological stations that would provide usable data for these models.
Currently, the NRC requirements for supplementary meteorological information are not clearly defined.
NUREG-0654 and Regulatory Guide 1.23 discuss the subject but do not give direct guidelines to be followed.
We plan to review the report on the NRC Kewaunee study when we receive it, We plan to await further clarification and NRC guidance, on this matter prior to considering the desirability of system modifications for the Cook Plant.
CLASS A DOSE ASSESSMENT CAPABILITY Class A dose assessment capability exists through the use of
- Pickard, Lowe and Garrick's (PL&G) ACRISO program to the extent described in AEP:NRC:0678A.
The application of the Class A model to the Cook Plant is limited in'hat it does not account for complex flow patterns that may occur during a lake breeze situation and it does not account for Plant-specific radiation monitor and accident default information.
In order to model complex flow patterns, PL&G is proposing a
modified Gaussian plume segment model called MIDRAC which they classify as an enhanced Class A model.
We have this proposal under evaluation.
The HIDRAC subroutine would utilize a real-time site-specific algorithm for use in turbulent internal boundary layer and lake breeze calculations (see discussion under Class B Dose Assessment Capability).
We are also evaluating PL&G's proposal to augment our Class A
capability by updating the ACRISO program file to contain in-Plant radiation monitor and accident default information.
When we have completed the upgrading of our model, we will provide you with a description of our Class A dose assessment capability.
CLASS B DOSE ASSESSMENT CAPABILITY We are presently evaluating proposals from two consultants to provide us with Class B emergency diffusion and dose calculations.
Both consultants have indicated that they do not have a Class B model that fully meets the NRC requirements as defined in Revision 1 of NUREG-0654;
- however, an enhanced Class A model is available'hich will consider site specific phenomena that affect plume transport.
We expect that operational implementation of this dose assessment capability at the Cook Plant will take place by the June 1983 date given in NUREG-0737, and prior to this date we will provide you with a description of our plans for a Class B dose assessment capability.
