4. Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity a., b. & c. Fission and Activation Gases Iodines. and Particulates:

Airborne effluent gaseous activity is conti..uously monitored and recorded; additionally, grab samples are taken and analyzed monthly to determine specific radionuclide activity concentrations. Stack and building vent effluent flow rates are calculated once a shirt based on the configuration of ooerating exhaust fans. The flow rate data is consolidated weekly to determine the volume of airborne effluents released from the plant..

Charcoal and particulate samples are taken and analyzed at least weekly to determine speci ic activity concentrations. The total activity released from the plant is then calculated by taking weeklv activity concentration values and multiplying them by the weekly airborne effluent volume.

Allowance is made for a plus or minus one sigma counting error associated with8 isotopic analyses.

4. Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity (Continued)
d. Liouid Effluents Gross beta, gamma and total g isotopic. activity concentrations

/

are determined on each batch of liquid effluent prior to release. The total curie content of a released batch is determined by multiplying the highest of the above three activity concentrat'ons by the total volume discharged. The total activity released during a month is then determined by summing the activity content of each batch dis-charged during the month.

Allowance is made for plus or minus one sigma counting error associated with the total 5 isotopic ana'yses.
