For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall not exceed 2.0 E-04 microcuries per milliliter.

b) The dose or dose commitment per reactor to a member of the public from any radioactive materials in liquid effluent released to unrestricted areas shall be limited as follows:

During any calendar quarter, to less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the total body and to less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ.

During any calendar year, to less than or equal to 3 mrem to the total body and less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ.

1.2 Gaseous Effluents a) The dose rate due to radioactive materials released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at and beyond the site boundary shall be limited to the following:

Less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the total body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin due to noble gases'ess than or equal to 1500 mrem/year to any organ due to I-131, I-133, tri tium and for all radioactive materials in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days.

b) The air dose per reactor to areas at and beyond the site boundary due to noble gases released in gaseous effluents shall be limited:

During any calendar quarter, to less than or equal to 5 mrad for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 10 mrad for beta radiation.

During any calendar year, to less than or equal to 10 mrad for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 20 mrad for beta radiation.

c) The dose per reactor to a member of the public, due to I-131, I-133, tritium and to particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days in airborne effluents released to areas at and beyond the site boundary shall not exceed 7.5 mrem to any organ during any calendar quarter and shall not exceed 15 mrem to any organ during any calendar year.

2.0 MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE CONCENTRATIONS Water: As per 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, 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.

3.0 AVERAGE ENERGY The average energy of fission and activation gases in effluents is not applicable.

4.0 MEASUREMENTS AND APPROXIMATIONS OF TOTAL RADIOACTIVITY All liquid and airborne discharges to the environment during this period were analyzed in accordance with Technical Specification requirements. The minimum frequency of analysis as required by Regulatory Guide 1.21 was met or exceeded.

When alpha, tritium and named nuclides are shown as curies on the following tables, this should be interpreted as "no activity was detected on the samples using the Plant Technical Specification analyses techniques to achieve required Lower Level of Detection (LLD) sensitivity for radioactive effluents".

4.1 Li uid Effluents Aliquots of representative pre-release samples, from the waste disposal system, were isotopically analyzed for gamma emitting isotopes on a multichannel analyzer.

Frequent periodic sampling and analysis were used to conservatively determine if any radioactivity was being released via the steam generator blowdown system and the storm drain system.

Monthly and quarterly composite samples for the waste disposal system were prepared to give proportional weight to each liquid release made during the designated period of accumulation. The monthly composite was analyzed for tritium and gross alpha radioactivity. Tritium was determined by use of liquid scintillation techniques and gross alpha radioactivity was determined by use of a solid state scintillation system. The quarterly composite was analyzed for Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55 by chemical separation.

All radioactivity concentrations determined from analysis of a pre-release composite were multiplied by the total represented volume of the liquid waste released to determine the total quantity of each isotope and of gross alpha activity released during the report period.

Aliquots of representative pre-release samples from the waste disposal system were analyzed on a per release basis for dissolved fission and activation gases by use of gamma spectrum analysis. The resulting isotope concentrations were multiplied by the total volume released in order to estimate the total dissolved gases released.

The liquid waste treatment system is shared by both units at the site and generally all liquid releases are allocated on a 50/50 basis to each unit.

4.2 Gaseous Effluents Airborne releases to the atmosphere occurred from:

release of gas decay tanks, the instrument bleedline, containment purges, and releases incidental to operation of the plant. The techniques employed in determining the radioactivity in airborne releases are:

a) Gamma spectrum analysis for fission and activation gases, b) Removal of particulate material by filtration and subsequent gamma spectrum analysis, Sr-89, Sr-90 determination and gross alpha analysis, c) Absorption of halogen radionuclides on a charcoal filter and subsequent gamma spectrum analysis, and d) Analysis of water vapor in a gas sample for tritium using liquid scintillation techniques.

All gas releases from the plant which were not accounted for by the above methods were conservatively estimated as curies of Ze-133 by use of the SPING-4 radiation monitor and the plant vent process monitor recorder chart and the current calibration curve for the monitor.

Portions of the gas waste treatment system are shared by both units and generally all gas releases from the shared system are allocated on a 50/50 basis to each unit.

Meteorological data for the period January 1993 through June 1993, in the form of Joint Frequency Distribution Tables, is maintained on-site.

4.3 Estimate of Errors a) Sampling Error The error associated with volume measurement devices, flow measuring devices, etc., based on calibration data and design tolerances has been conservatively estimated to be collectively less than + 10%.

b) Analytical Error Our quarterly Q.C. cross-check program involves counting unknown samples provided by an independent external lab. The errors associated with our analysis of these unknown samples, and reported to us by the independent lab, were used as the basis for deriving the following analytical error terms.

NUCLIDE TYPE AVERAGE ERROR MAXIMUM ERROR Liquid +6. 1% +17.0%

SOLID WASTE SHIPMENT OFFSITE FOR BURIAL OR DISPOSAL Note 1: Spent resin, filters, sludge, and evaporator bottoms volume indicates volume shipped directly to burial site.

Note 2: Dry compressible waste volume indicates volume shipped to burial site following reduction .by a waste processing facility. Volume shipped to the waste processing facility was 652. 4 m Note 3: Material transported to Oak Ridge, Tennessee, was consigned to licensed processing facilities for volume reduction and decontamination activities. The material remaining after processing was transported by the processor to Barnwell, South Carolina, for burial.

Note 4: The total curie quantity and radionuclide composition of solid waste shipped from the Turkey Point Plant Units 3 and 4 are determined using a combination of qualitative and quantitive techniques. The Turkey Point Plant follows the guidelines in the Low Level Waste Licensing Branch Technical Position on Radioactive Waste Classification (5/ll/83) for these determinations.

The most frequently used techniques for determining the total activity in a package are the dose to curie method and inference from specific activity and mass or activity concentration and volume. Activation analysis may be applied when it is appropriate. The total activity determination by any of these methods is considered to be an estimate.

FLORIDA POWER AND LIGHT COMPANY TURKEY POINT PLANT SEMIANNUAL REPORT JANUARY 1993 THROUGH JUNE 1993 UNITS 3 AND 4 TABLE 6 The composition of radionuclides in the waste is determined by both on-site analysis for principle gamma emitters and periodic off-site analyses for difficult to measure isotopes. The on-site analyses are performed either on a batch basis or on a routine basis using representative samples appropriate for the waste type.

Off-site analyses are used to establish scaling factors or other estimates for difficult to measure isotopes.

Principle radionuclide refers .to those radionuclides contained in the waste in concentrations greater than 0.01 times the concentration of the nuclide listed in Table 1 or 0.01 times the smallest concentration of the nuclide listed in Table 2 of 10 CFR 61.

Type of waste is specified as described in NUREG 0782, Draft Environment Impact Statement on 10 CFR 61 "Licensing Requirements for Land Disposal of Radioactive Waste".

Type of container refers to the transport package.
