SUMMARY

OF CHANGES TO THE OFF-SITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL JANUARY-JUNE In accordance with Section 6.9.1 of Amendment 66 to the Nine Mile Point 1

Technical Specifications, the Table below (a) describes and provides justification for recent changes to the Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual and (b) explains why these changes will not adversely affect the accuracy or reliability of off-site dose calculations or monitor alarm setpoint determinations.

Attachment 1 to this document provides copies of pertinent pages of Revision 0

and Revision 1

to Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual showing "before" and "after" changes.

All revisions to the Off-Site Dose Calculations were reviewed and accepted by authorized station personnel in accordance with applicable administrative procedures.

Introduction, Paragraph 2,

page 1

Paragraph was deleted since sections 3.2.1.1 and 3.2.1.2 of Revision 1 to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual now define calculations (ie., the basis) used to establish offsite release limits.

This change will improve the accuracy and reliability of release rate limit and dose rate limit calculations since both meteorological information and dose to curie conversion factors are now considered.

2.

Section 2.1.1 Paragraph 1,

page 2

A quarterly monitor setpoint calculation requirement was established in Revision 1 to ensure 10CFR20 MPC concentra-tions are not exceeded for gamma emitters even with periodic changes in isotopic composition of probable release sources.

The efficiency of the service water monitor is dependent on the gamma emission energy of the isotopes released.

Thus, the monitor accuracy is improved if the setpoint calculation is periodically performed using an isotopic composition which most closely resembles the probable isotopic composition of the source of release

Section 2.2.1, Paragraph 6,

page 10 An explanatory sentence was added to Revision 1 which states that if a factor of conservatism (ie.,l.05) is applied to the dose calcula-tion equation, dose contribu-tion from the drinking water pathway need not be con-sidered.

This assumption was applied to liquid dose calculation equations in both Revision 0 and 1 of the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual

since, based on historical data, the fish ingestion pathway contributes

>98X of the maximum doses to the total body and critical organ received from liquid released Accuracy and reliability of dose calculation is unaffected.-

Section 3.1.1 Paragraph 1,

page 12 Paragraph 2 was added to Revision 1 which changed the frequency of monitor alarm setpoint determination from monthly to quarterly under normal release rate conditions.

This change was made so that frequency and performance of alarm setpoint readjustment (if required) would correspond to the time of detector calibration.

Station procedures require stack monitor alarm points be set conservatively during periods of normal release rate.

This fact increases the likelihood that that monitor alarms will sound if Technical Specification release limits are approached.

Thus, overall reliability is improved.

Paragraph 3 was added which requires more frequent alarm

,setpoint determinations under conditions of abnormal release rate.

Paragraph 4 was added (and the last paragraph of ODCM, Revision 0 deleted) since the isotopic composition of gaseous effluents cannot be determined during prolonged outages (when noble gases have decayed to less than detectable activities).

9.

Section 3.1.2, pages 12-14 The entire section was revised to require alarm setpoint determination using meteorol-ogical information and dose-to curie conversion factors rather than obsolete limits listed in the Environmental Technical Specifications for Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit

$31 dated March 1, 1979.

This change will improve the accuracy and reliability of alarm setpoint determinations since both meteorological conditions and dose-to-curie conversion factors are now considered.

10. Section 3.1.3, page 14 Two effective changes were made to this section:

(a) factors of conservatism were removed from the set-point calculation and (b) allowable upper limits on hi hi and hi alarm set-points were increased to correspond to 1X and 1/2X the technical specification limit respectively. It was felt that the frequency of plant off gas sampling and analysis required by station procedures (generally five times per week) )ustified setting the off gas monitor alarms higher than originally intended by Revision 0

of the OCDM.

Accuracy and reliability of alarm setpoint determinations remains unchanged since, in both Revision 0 and Revision 1 to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, the alarm setpoint is a function of monitor efficiency which is in turn a function of the isotopic composition and concentration of the offgas.

By station procedure, alarm setpoint calculation is performed monthly to ensure isotopic composition and concen-tration do not appreciably change the monitor efficiency factor.

ll. Section 3.2, page 14 A description of the overall approach and assumptions used in dose and dose rate determina-tions for gaseous releases at Nine Mile Point Unit One was added.

Dose and dose rate calculation.methodology described in Revision 1 to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual will improve the accuracy reliability of dose/dose rate estimates since real time meteorological data may (when available) be applied.

14. Section 3 ~ 2 ~ 2 ~ 3 pages 18-19 The requirement to calcul-ate/sum doses due to tritium, iodine and particulates from each pathway separately was deleted from Revision 0.
Instead, doses due to tritium, iodines, partic-ulates are calculated/summed monthly for the "moving" critical receptor location (defined on page 18, Revision 1 to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual-See Attachment 1) unless Technical Specification limits are approached.

This change was made in order to more rapidly calculate doses and to provide a degree of conservatism in the dose calculation.

Reliability (ie, the likelihood of identifying dose problems) of dose calculation is improved with this revision since meth'odology now effectively considers dose contri-butions from all critical receptor locations and pathways simultaneously.

Accuracy of dose calculation is unaffected under high release rate conditions since doses at all critical receptor locations are calculated separately.

Under low (normal) release rate conditions, doses may be conservatively over-estimated However, the relative error is negligible when compared to other assumptions made in the dose calculation (eg., meteorological assumptions.

~

The requirement to estimate infant thyroid doses monthly prior to receipt of all analysis data was added to Revision 1 to provide rapid identification of potential dose problems.

Paragraph 2 of Section 3.2.2.3, Revision 0 was deleted and applicable information about critical receptors was incorporated into Section 3.3.

15. Section 3.3, pages 19-20 The critical receptor loca-tion for noble gas doses was changed from the great-est X/Q residence location to the maximum X/Q land sector site boundary loca-tion (when 5 year average meteorological conditions are

'assumed) since calculated doses are higher at the latter location, and, since Technical Specifications requires dose rate calcula-tion at the site boundary.

This change provides an accurate means of assessing site boundary dose rates due to noble gases.

16. Section 4.4, page 24 This section was added to Revision 1 of the Offsite Dose Manual in order to determine doses to members of the public within the Site Boundary.

Doses as a

. result of gaseous effluents are evaluated via inhalation and direct radiation compon-ents.

The direct radiation component is evaluated by environmental TLDs.

The in-halation component is eval-uated by a simple lung dose equation taken from Regulatory Guide 1.109.

This change provides an accurate means of assessing doses within the site boundary.

17. Section 5.2, last paragraph, page 26 The Interlaboratory Comparison Program required by the Technical Specifi-cations was detailed further by including the types of samples obtained from the EPA's Cross Check Program.

This change has no effect on accuracy or reliability of dose/alarm setpoint determinations and was, included for clarity only.

22. Table 5.1, pages 54-56 Table 5.1 was revised to change some of the descrip-tions of the environmental sampling locations.

The direction in degrees and distance in miles was revised as a result of using a new Environmental Geological Survey Map to describe the sample locations.

Environmental air station (ODCM Location t/2 of Revision 0 or Location f/1 of Revision 1) as, located on Nine Mile Point Road instead of the site boundary as originally indicated.

The station could not be located at the site boundary area as originally indicated, because the area was inaccessible.

Same as t/19.

Environmental air station (ODCM location 84 of Revision 0 or Location 83 of Revision

1) was located on Co. Rt.

29 instead of the NE shoreline because the most recent meteorological study for X/Q and D/Q values showed the Co. Route 29 location had greater X/Q and D/Q values than the NE shoreline area, as originally proposed.

Environmental air stations (map locations 1-4) were assigned new map numbers.

Location 1 became.4; 2 became 1;

3 became 2; and 4 became 3.

TABLE 6 SEMI-ANNUAL RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENT RELEASE REPORT (1985)

NINE MILE POINT NUCLEAR STATION 81 CAUSE AND CORRECTIVE ACTIONS REGARDING SERVICE WATER EFFLUENT MONITOR INOPERABILITY Amendment 66, Section 3.6.14a of the Nine Mile Point Station Unit 81 Technical Specifications requires ad)ustment of radioactive liquid effluent monitor alarm setpoints to ensure that 10 CFR 20, Appendix B,

Table II, Column 2 limits are not exceeded.

Inability to meet this criteria in the case of the service water effluent monitor requires (a) declaration of monitor inoperability (or cessation of the release) and (b) sampling and analysis of the affected effluent water at 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> intervals.

Furthermore, the cause of the monitor inoperability and a

description as to how the instrument will be restored to operable status must be reported in the next Semi-Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

Prior to implementation of Amendment 66 of the Technical Specifications, it was determined that the sensitivity (ie, the capability of the monitor to respond to concentrations equal to 10 CFR 20 Appendix B, Table II, Column 2 limits) of Nine Mile Point 81 Service Water effluent monitor was questionable.

Therefore, the monitor was considered inoperable on January 1,

1985 and a

12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> service water sampling and analysis program was implemented.

Current plans call for re-establishment of service water monitor operability in 1986.

A new monitoring system has been purchased and is already on-site.

Required electrical modifications and

-procedure development/implementation should take place during the 1986 refuel outage.

In the interim

period, additional Technical Specific'ation surveillances required to maintain service water monitor operability, including periodic sensor checks, 'ource
checks, channel tests and calibrations are still being performed on the existing monitoring system despite its sensitivity limitations.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) provides the methodology to be used for demonstrating compliance with the Radiological Effluent Technical N

I Specifications (RETS),

10 CFR 20, 10 CFR 50, and 40 CFR 190.

The contents of the ODCM are based on Draft NUREG-0472, Revision 3, "Standard Radiological Effluent, Technical Specifications for Pressurized Water Reactors,"

September 1982; Draft NUREG-0473, Revision 2, "Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for BWR's," July 1979; NUREG 0133, "Preparation of Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for Nuclear Power Plants," October 1978; the several-Regulatory Guides referenced in these documents;

and, communication with the NRC staff.

Section 5 contains a detailed description of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring (REM) samplin~ locations.

Should it be necessary to revise the ODCM, these revisions will be made in accordance with Technical Specifications.

Setpoints for the Service Vater System Effluent Line will be calculated quarterly based on the radionuclides identified during the previous year's releases from the liquid radwaste system or the isotopes identified in t'e most recent radwaste release or identified probable source.

Setpoints for the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line will be based on the radionuclides ident1fied in each batch of liquid waste prior to its release.

After release, the Liquid Radwaste monitor setpoiat may remain as set, or revert back to a setpoint based on a previous Semi-Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report, or install blank flange in the discharge line and declare 1noperable in accordance with the technical specification.

2.2 Dose Determination 2.2.1 Maximum Dose Equivalent Pathway A dose assessment report was prepared for the Nine Mile Poin t Unit 1 facility by Charles T. Main, Inc., of Boston, MA.

This report presented the calculated dose equivalent rates to individuals as well as the population within a 5g-mile radius of the facility based on the radionuclides released in liquid and gaseous effluents during the time periods of 1 July 1980 through 31 December 1980 and from 1 Januar'y 19S1 through 31 December 19S1.

Prior to each radioactive liquid discharge, each liquid waste tank to be discharged will be analyzed for isotope content utilizing a GeLi detector.

On the basis of this analysis, projected doses to an adult whole body and a teen liver will be calculated using the following relationships:

As long as the 1.05 factor is used, doses received via the drinking water pathway (eg, tritium) neea not be accounted for separately.

All projected doses calculated in this manner for each batch of liquid effluent will be summed for comparison with quarterly and annual limits, added to the doses accumulated from other releases in the quarter and year of interest.

The setpoints will be activated if the instantaneous dose rate at or beyond the (land) site boundary would exceed 500 mrem/yr to the whole body or 3000 mrem/yr to the skin from the continuous release of radioactive noble gas in the gaseous effluent.

Monitor setpoints will be determined once per quarter under normal release rate conditions and will be based on the isotopic composition of the release and/or a more conservative default composition specified in the pertinent procedure. If the calculated setpoint is higher than the existing setpoint, it is not mandatory that'he setpoint be changed Under abnormal site release rate conditions, monitor setpoints will be recalculated and, if necessary, reset at more frequent intervals as deemed necessary by CHIRP Supervision.

In particular, the JAP contribution shall be assessed During outages and until steady state power operation is again

realized, the last operating setpoint shall be used.

The skin dose rate limit is not used in setpoint calculations because it is never limiting.

Total body dose rates and gamma air doses at the maximum X/Q land sector site boundary interface and beyond.

Either maximum fiv~aa~nnual-average-or real time meteorologica'1'ata shall be utilized for dose and dose rate calculations.

Vihere maximum five year average annual meteorological data is assumed, dose and dose rates due to noble gases at locations beyond ahe site'oundary will be lower than equivalent site boundary dose and dose rates.

Therefore, under these conditions, calculation of noble gas dose and dose rates beyond the maximum X/Q land sector site boundary locations can be neglected.

The frequency of dose rate calculations will be upgraded when elevated release rate conditions specified in subsequent sections 3.2.1.1 and 3.2.1.2 are realized.

1 Critical organ doses and dose rates may be conservatively calculated by assuming the existence of a so-called "moving" critical receptor.

At this "moving" critical receptor location, it is assumed that all pathways are applicable and the highest X/A and/or D/Q value for actual pathways as noted in Table 3-1 are in effect.

A person's dose at the "moving" critical receptor location is equal to the same dose that person would receive if they were simultaneously subjected to the highest pathway dose at each critical receptor identified for each pathway.

If dose or dose rates calculated, using the assumptions noted above, reach Technical Specification limits, actual pathways will be evaluated, and doses/dose rates shall be calculated at separate critical receptor locations and compared with applicable limits.

Not all pathways need be considered in dose and dose rate calculations at each critical receptor location.

For example, when calculating land sector site boundary doses and dose rates for particulates, iodines'and tritium, only the ground deposition and inhalation pathways apply.

1 3.3 Critical Receptors In accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 20 and 10 CFR 50, Appendix I, the critical receptors have been identified and are contained in Table 3-1.

For noble gas doses, one of two critical receptor locations will be assumed.

When maximum five year average annual X/Q values are used, the critical receptor is the maximum X/Q land sector site boundary interface.

When real time meteorological X/Q values are used, the critical receptor may either be the maximum X/Q land sector site boundary location, or the downwind location of greatest X/Q residence (e.g.,

1.5 miles east),

whichever is higher.

For I-133, I-131, tritium and particulate radionuclides with a half life of greater than eight days, the critical pathways are milk (cow and goat)',

meat, vegetation, inhalation and direct radiation (ground I

pathway, the critical receptor is the greatest D/Q meat animal location.

This location has been determined in conjunction with the land use census (technical specification 3.6.22) and is subject to change.

The vegetation (food crop) dose is based on the greatest D/Q garden location from which samples are taken.

This location also may be modified as a result of vegetation sampling surveys.

4.0 40 CFR 190 REQUIREMENTS The "Uranium Fuel Cycle" is defined in 40 CFR Part 190.02 (b) as follows:

"Uranium fuel cycle means the operations of milling of uranium ore, chemical conversion of uranium, isotopic enrichment of uranium, fabrication of uranium-fuel

, generatian-of electricity by a light-water-cooled nuclear power plant using uranium fuel, and reprocessing of spent uranium fuel, to the extent that these directly support the production of electrical power for public use utilizing nuclear energy, but excludes mining operations, operations at waste disposal sites, transportation of any radioactive material in support of these operations, and the reuse of recovered non-uranium special nuclear and-by-product materials from the cycle."

Section 3.6.15.d of the Technical Specifications requires than when the v'alculated doses associated with the effluent releases exceed twice the limits of sections 3.6.15.a.(2)(b),

3.6.15.b.(2)(b) and 3.6.15.b.(3)(b),

then calculations shall be made including direct radiation contributions from the reactor units and outside storage tanks (as applicable) to determine whether the above 40 CFR 190 dose limits have been exceeded.

'Doses to Members of the Public Within the Site Boundary.

Section 6.9.1.e of the Nine Mile Point Unit 1 Technical Specifications requires that the Semiannual Effluent Release Report include an assessment of the radiation doses from radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents to members of the public due to their activities inside the site boundary as defined by Figure 5.1-1 of the specifications.

A member of the public, as defined by the Technical Specifications, would be represented by an individual who visits the sites'nergy Information Center for the purpose of observing the educational displays or for picnicing and associated activities. lt is assumed that an individual would spend four hours per week for twelve weeks at the Energy Information Center.

The time spent at the facility is assumed to occur from approximately July 1 to September 30 of each year."

Thus, the first Semiannual Effluent Release Report will not address this particular dose because the summer season is the period of concern.

The second report will address this dose based on forty eight ho~rs occupancy The pathways considered for the evaluation include the inhalation pathway with the resultant lung dose and the direct radiation dose pathway with the associated total body dose.

The direct radiation dose pathway, in actuality, include several pathways.

These include:

the direct radiation gamma dose to an individual froa. on overhead

plume, a submersion gamma plume dose, and a ground plane dose (deposition).

pther pathways, such as the ingestion pathway, are not applicable.

In addition, pathways associated with water related recreational activities are not applicable here.

This general pathway will be evaluated by average environmental TLD readings.

At least two environmental TLD locations will be utilized and located in the approximate area. of the Energy Information Center (EXC) and the facility picnic area.

These TLDs will be placed in the field on approximately July 1 and removed on approximately September 30 of each year (this time interval is composed of one quarterly TLD collection period).

The average TLD readings will be adjusted by the average control TLD readings-This is accomplished by subtracting the average quarterly control TLD value from the average EIC TLD value.

The applicable quarterly control TLD values will be utilized after adjusting for the appropriate time period (as applicable).

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) provides the methodology to be used for demonstrating compliance with the Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (RETS),

10 CFR 20, 10 CFR 50, and 40 CFR 190.

The contents of the ODCM are based on Draft NUREG-0472, Revision 3, "Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for Pressurized Water Reactors,"

September 1982; Draft NUREG-0473, Revision 2, "Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for BWR's," July 1979; NUREG 0133,

~IPreparation of Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for Nuclear Power Plants,"

October 1978; the several Regulatory Guides referenced in these documents;

and, communication with the NRC staff.

Notwithstanding the above, rather than redefine the basis for an offsite dose limit or release limit, the limits listed in the Etocixaamn Technical Specifications for Nine Mile Point Nuclear Stati'on Unit 1 dated Harch 1

1979 have been utilized whenever possible.

In this manner a

minimum number of changes to the current implementing procedures are I

needed.

One of the major differences between the RETS and OIKM and the Environmental Technical Specification is that release limits and offsite dose limits in the latter are based on site releases while they are based on unit releases in the former.

This difference is compensated for in the ODCM b setting the releases from other units at the site equal to zero.

Section 5 contains a detailed description of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring (REH) sampling locations.

These locations are subject to change based on the results of the annual Land Use Census.

Should it be necessary to revise the ODCM, these revisions will be made in accordance with Technical Specifications.

Setpoints for the Service Water System Effluent Line will be calculated basi-! on the radionuclides identified during the previous year's releases from the liquid radwaste system or the isotopes identified in the most recent radwaste release.

Setpoints for the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line will be based on, the radionuclides identified in each batch of liquid waste prior to its release.

0 Critical receptor locations have been identified for the purposes of evaluating each pathway.

These receptor locations are contained in Table 3-2.

For the noble gas plume dose and inhalation dose the critical X/Q residence is applicable.

For the milk, meat and vegetation

dose, the critical receptor locations are the critical D/Q milk cow location, milk goat location, meat animal location and critical D/Q garden location.

The quarterly and annual results shall be compared to I

the limits listed in paragraph 3.2.2.

If the limits are exceeded, special reports as required by Section 6.9.3 of the Technical Specification must be submitted.

3.3 Critical Receptors In accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR 20 and 10 CFR 50, Appendix I, the critical receptors will be identified.

For noble

gases, only the external noble gas plume dose pathway will be considered and the location of concern will be the greatest X/Q residence as determined in specification 3.6.22 of the Technical Specifications.

For I-133, I-131, tritium and particulate radionuclides with a half life of greater than eight days, the critical pathways are milk (cow and goat),

meat, vegetation, inhalation and direct radiation (ground plane) as a result of ground deposition.

ocation would have the greatest potential residence time.

This critical receptor location is the same as the location used for the noble as lume g

p ume dose pathway.

The ground plane dose pathway vill be calculated as ht e greatest D/Q residence because of the greatest sidence time.

For the meat consumption dose pathvay, the potential reside critical receptor is the greatest D/Q meat animal location.

This location is determined in conjunction with the land use census (specification 3.6.22).

The vegetation (food crop) dose is based on the greatest D/Q garden location.

This location, as the critical meat animal locat 'n, will be determined in conjunction with the land use.census.

0 dosimeters, only one determination is required to evaluate the above capabilities per type of TLD.

Furthermore, the above capabilities may be determined by the vendor who supplies the TLDs.

Uniformity shall be determined by giving TLDs from the same batch an exposure equal to that resulting from an exposure rate of 10 uR/hr during the field cycle.

The responses obtained shall have a relative standard deviation of less than 7.5Z.

A total of at least 5 TLDs shall be evaluated.
