SUBJECT:

JANUARY JUNE 1991 SEMI-ANNUAL RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENT RELEASE REPORT In conformance with the Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station Unit 2 (NMP2)

Technical Specifications, we are enclosing the Semi-Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Re ort for the period January 1, 1991 through June 30, 1991.

Included in this report is a summary of liquid, gaseous and solid effluents released from the station during the reporting period (Tables 1-3) and an explanation as to the cause and corrective actions regarding the inoperability of any station liquid and gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation (Attachment 1). During the reporting period there were no revisions to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (Attachment 2) or the Process Control Program Procedure (Attachment 3).

The format used for the effluent data is outlined in Appendix B of Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 1. Dose assessments were made in accordance with the NMP2 Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. Distribution is in accordance with Regulatory Guide 10.1, 10 CFR 50.4 (b) (1) and the Technical Specifications.

If you have any questions concerning the attached report, please contact Beth Thomas, Chemistry and Radiation Protection Support, Syracuse Corporate Office, Salina Meadows (315) 428-7188.

1. Technical Specification Limits:

A) Fission and activation gases:

1. The dose rate limit of noble gases from the site to areas at or beyond the site boundary shall be less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin.
2. The air dose from noble gases released in gaseous effluents from the Nine Mile Point 2 Station to areas at or beyond the site boundary shall be limited during any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 5 mr for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 10 mrad for beta radiation and, during any calendar year to less than or equal to 10 mr for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 20 mrad for beta radiation.

B&C) Tritium, Iodines and Particulates, half lives > 8 days:

1. The dose rate limit of Iodine-131, Iodine-133, Tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than eight days, released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at or beyond the site boundary, shall be less than or equal to 1500 mrem/year to any organ.
2. The dose to a member of the public from Iodine-131, Iodine-133, Tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half lives greater than eight days as part of gaseous effluents released from the Nine Mile Point 2 Station to areas at or beyond the site boundary shall be limited during any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 7.5 mrem to any organ and, during any calendar year to less than or equal to 15 mrem to any organ.

D) Liquid Effluents:

1. The concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to unrestricted areas 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 28-04 microcuries/ml total activity.

001371LL

2. The dose or dose commitment to a member of the public from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released from Nine Mile Point Unit 2 to unrestricted areas shall be limited during any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the whole body and to less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ, and during any calendar year to less than or equal to 3 mrem to the whole body and to less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ.
2. Maximum Permissible Concentrations:

A) Fission and activation gases:

None specified B&C) Iodines and particulates, half lives > 8 days:

None specified D) Liquid Effluents:

10CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2.

Avg MPC (Jan. March) = 1.27E-03 uCi/ml Avg MPC (April June) = 1.87E-03 uCi/ml

3. Average Energy (Fission and Activation gases Mev):

Jan. March: Eg = 1.26; Ep 4.69E-01 Apr. June: Eg = 1.44; Ep 5.96E-01

4. Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity:

Described below are the normal methods used to measure or approximate the total radioactivity and radionuclide composition in effluents.

A) Fission and Activation Gases: Noble gas effluent activity is determined by on-line gamma spectroscopic monitoring (intrinsic germanium crystal) of an isokinetic sample stream.

B) Iodines: Iodine effluent activity is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis of charcoal cartridges sampled from an isokinetic sample stream.

C) Particulates: Activity released is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis of particulate filters sampled from an isokinetic sample stream.

D) Tritium: Tritium effluent activity is measured by liquid scintillation or gas proportional counting of monthly samples taken with an air sparging/water trap apparatus.

E) Liquid Effluents: Isotopic Analysis of a representative sample of each batch.

001371LL

4. Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity: (Continued)

P) Solid Effluents: Isotopic contents of waste shipments are determined by gamma spectroscopy analyses and water content estimates of a representative sample of each batch. Scaling factors established from primary composite sample analyses conducted off-site are applied, where appropriate, to find estimated concentration of non-gamma emitters. For low activity trash shipments, curie content is estimated by plant smears.

Section A of Table 3A) since (a) waste classification and burial was performed by the vendors and (b) NMP-2 Technical Specification 6.9.1 requires reporting of "information for each class of solid waste (as defined by 10CFR61) shipped offsite during the reporting period." The information provided in this section, therefore, is in addition to that required by the NMP-2 Technical Specifications.
