3 1.0 Introduction This report has been prepared in compliance with Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), specifically 10 CFR 50.36a(a)(2), and Columbia Generating Station (CGS) Technical Specification 5.6.2. It includes a summary of the quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents and solid radioactive waste released from CGS during calendar year 2017. Effluent data is summarized on a quarterly and annual basis.
Throughout this report, units of activity and dose are as defined in 10 CFR 20.1004, 20.1005, and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Regulatory Guide 1.109-1977.
The United States National Council on Radiation Protection published Report #160 in 2009 which can serve to put radiation dose into perspective for the reader of this report.
It was determined that the average yearly dose to a person living in the United States is 620 mrem from all sources. Of this, ~50% is attributed to natural sources (radiation from gaseous radon, cosmic or space radiation, natural radioactive material in the ground, and natural radioactive materials in our bodies). About 48% is attributed to diagnostic and therapeutic medical exposure. Radiation dose from nuclear power was grouped into a category comprising <0.1% of the total.
2.0 Liquid Effluents No planned releases of contaminated liquids from the liquid radwaste processing system were discharged to the Columbia River from CGS during calendar year 2017.
The last discharge to the river from liquid processing took place in 1998.
According to ground water monitoring, spills of greater than 100 gallons, and the leak detection system of the lined evaporation ponds, there is no indication of a leak or spill of radioactive liquids to ground water in 2017.
3.0 Gaseous Effluents Routine Releases Gaseous effluents from CGS are released from three (3) principal release points:
Main Plant Vent -- mixed mode release Turbine Building - mixed mode release Radwaste Building -- ground level release The gaseous source terms from each release point are listed in Tables 3-1, 3-2, and 3-
- 3. The activation gas argon-41 is included in these tables under fission gases to allow a match with the fission and activation gas totals of Table 3-4. Table 3-4 provides a summation of the total activity released, the average release rate, gross alpha radioactivity, and the estimated total error associated with the measurements of radioactivity in the gaseous effluents.
4 Radioactivity measurements for gaseous effluent releases are performed for fission and activation gases by collecting the samples in a Marinelli beaker and analyzing them using gamma spectroscopy. Air is analyzed for tritium by collection of water vapor on a desiccant with subsequent distillation and liquid scintillation counting. Particulates and iodines are sampled continuously and the sample media (particulate filters and charcoal cartridges) are analyzed weekly using gamma spectroscopy. Each quarter a chemical separation process is used to isolate strontium from the composite particulate filters and quantification is accomplished with liquid scintillation detection. The average energy per disintegration of fission and activation gases is not included in this report as it is not required by Technical Specifications and is not used for gaseous effluent release rate limit calculations.
When a radionuclide is not positively identified at levels greater than the Minimum Detectable Activity (MDA) or Minimum Detectable Concentration (MDC), a value of zero is used for release concentrations and offsite dose assessments. The MDA is an a posteriori value that is determined during analysis of a sample. Table 3-6 contains the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD - which is an a priori value determined before a sample is analyzed) values corresponding to the sampling methods and analytical instruments used for each principal radionuclide. Carbon-14 (C-14 or 14C) releases are calculated using an Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) methodology that is discussed in more detail later in this chapter.
The presence of fuel defects were identified in 2015, and continued into 2017, until fuel bundles could be inspected and removed during a refueling outage. The resulting dose contribution from elevated Noble Gas concentrations remains a small fraction of the10 CFR 50 Appendix I numerical guides. These doses are reported in Table 3-0 and Section 6.0.
Dose calculations were performed for releases using the NRC XOQDOQ and NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109 methodology (manually or with the GASPAR II computer program) and parameter values as described in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). This methodology was based on Publication 2 of the International Commission on Radiation Protection released in 1959.
Quarterly and annual doses to the potentially highest-exposed Member of the Public (MOP) at and beyond the site boundary were calculated. In addition, quarterly and annual doses were calculated at actual resident locations identified in the annual land use census. ODCM limits are based on 10 CFR 20 and Appendix I to 10 CFR 50. The threshold for air dose applies to fission and activation gases and is ten (10) mrad for beta and five (5) mrad for gamma quarterly and twenty (20) mrad for beta and ten (10) mrad for gamma annually. The threshold for organ dose applies to iodine, tritium, and particulates with half-lives greater than eight days and is seven and a half (7.5) mrem quarterly and fifteen (15) mrem annually.
The ODCM includes another set of release rate limits to provide operational flexibility and assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in exposure to a MOP in excess of the design objectives of Appendix I to 10 CFR 50.
For fission and activation gases the dose rate limits are less than or equal to 500 mrem per year to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem per year to the skin.
5 For iodines, particulates, and tritium the dose rate limit is less than or equal to 1500 mrem/year to any organ.
Dose calculations were also conducted for Members of the Public within the site boundary. The results are discussed and tabulated in Section 6.0.
There are release points around CGS that have been identified as unmonitored and evaluated for significance. Samples were taken in 2017 of the sources of these unmonitored releases.
Some of these release points include; Heating Steam Vents Cooling System Sediment Disposal Cell Lined Evaporation Ponds Condensate Storage Tanks The radionuclides released from these four points were evaluated and determined to be less than one percent of the total Curies released from all release points for the respective type of radionuclide in 2017. The radionuclides detected were Tritium (3H),
Cobalt-60 and Cesium-137, and the calculated activity discharged was 1.32E-01 Ci, 1.10E-08 Ci and 2.00E-08 Ci respectively. The evaluation was completed by either verifying the assumptions of previous bounding calculations, or by evaluating activity released based on sample data. Table 3-4 below was updated to include the activity from these three radionuclides.
Abnormal Release On December 9, 2017 at 00:30 in the morning, a relief valve on the shell side of Seal Steam Evaporator 1A lifted. This valve was reported closed at 01:30 that same morning. The steam released through this valve is exhausted through the Turbine building roof at a point that is not monitored for radiation. The make-up water to this evaporator is feedwater from the Main Condenser that has been filtered through the Condensate filter demineralizers. 3H is the suspected radionuclide of concern in this water, and a sample taken from the Turbine Building Roof confirmed that 3H was the only detectable radionuclide present. The flow rate through this discharge pipe is assumed to be 2.71E+05 cubic centimeters per minute; based on a previous event when the system pressure and relief valve setting were similar. The concentration of 3H in the feedwater was measured to be 2.42E-03 uCi/cc on December 4, 2017. This equates to 3.94E-02 Ci of 3H released while the relief valve was open.
The meteorological data before, during and after the time that the relief valve was open showed that a North Northeast wind was blowing. There are no residents within 5-miles of CGS in the South Southwest sector, and this amount of activity is less than one percent of the total 3H discharged from all release points in 2017. Therefore, the activity of 3.94E-02 has been added to the Curies of 3H reported in 4th quarter of Table 3-4 below and included in the dose calculations for the 4th quarter performed using the GASPAR II computer code.
6 Carbon-14 14C, with a half-life of 5,730 years, is a naturally occurring isotope of carbon produced by cosmic ray interactions in the atmosphere. When 14C decays it emits a beta particle of varying energies up to 0.156 MeV with an average energy of 0.049 MeV. As a result of this low energy, the air and inhalation doses are insignificant. Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount of 14C in the atmosphere. 14C is also produced in commercial nuclear reactors, but the amounts produced are much less than those produced naturally or from weapons testing.
Although 10 CFR 50.36a has always required reporting the principal nuclides released, 14C had been exempted because of the large quantity that existed naturally in the environment. However, following release of Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 1.21 (Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste), the NRC recommended that U.S. nuclear power plants evaluate whether 14C is a "principal radionuclide", and if so, report the amount of 14C released.
A radionuclide is considered a principal radionuclide if it contributes either (1) greater than 1 percent of the 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I, design objective dose, or (2) greater than 1 percent of the activity of all radionuclides in the type of effluent being considered.
This implementation of primary radionuclides ensures both (1) radionuclides that are present in relatively large amounts but that contribute very little to dose, and (2) radionuclides that are present in very small amounts but that have a relatively high contribution to dose are appropriately included in the annual effluent report.
At CGS, improvements over the years have resulted in a significant decrease in radioactive gaseous emissions. As a result, 14C has become a "principal radionuclide" for the gaseous effluent pathway at CGS. The quantity of gaseous 14C released to the environment is estimated using a 14C source term scaling factor based on EPRI Technical Report 1021106 and power generation. The EPRI report estimates the production of 14C at approximately 5 Ci/GWth - yr for a plant like CGS. This would result in a potential release of 18.1 Ci/yr based on the rated power for CGS. The EPRI report also describes the chemical form of the 14C released as being 95% Carbon Dioxide, which could be incorporated into growing plants during photosynthesis. The remainder is assumed to be methane (CH4).
Table 3a contains estimates of 14C radioactivity released in 2017. Based on 95%
Carbon Dioxide, and assuming that all 14C generated is released in gaseous effluent, then the total 14C emission shown in Table 3a is 16.0 Ci. Estimates of public dose resulting from the 14C effluent are included in the doses reported in Section 6 of this report.
7 Table 3a - Carbon-14 Releases Out-of-Service Effluent Monitors The noble gas detector to the Main Plant Vent (Stack Monitor) was out-of-service from May 17th, 2017 to June 27th, 2017. This out-of-service time started due to planned maintenance on electrical switchgear (SM-7) during a refueling outage. The power outage itself did not last 30 days, but the detector did not cool down appropriately once power was restored. Work began to improve the cooling system required to support operation of this noble gas detector, but this work typically takes anywhere from several days to weeks to complete because of the nature of the cooling system. The detector was restored to functional status on 6/27/17.

- Calculated quarterly doses cannot be directly compared to the annual doses. Each above listed quarterly dose is the highest calculated dose based on a number of variables. Variables that make comparison difficult include location, seasonal changes in meteorological data (quarterly joint frequency distribution (JFD) tables vs. annual JFD tables), receptor age, target organ, and characteristics of the emitted radionuclides.
This table shows the highest air dose or organ dose for either a hypothetical resident at the site boundary or an actual resident within a 5-mile radius.
The pathways of exposure considered at the site boundary are the plume exposure, ground exposure, and inhalation pathways only. The potentially highest-exposed MOP from all gaseous effluent releases (including C-14) for 2017, was for a resident (child) at 4.64 miles E. The highest organ dose for the plume exposure, ground exposure, garden produce ingestion, and inhalation pathways was 2.43E-1 mrem which is 1.62% of the 15 mrem 10 CFR 50 Appendix I guideline. This location and assumed exposure pathways were based on the 2017 Land Use Census.

- Measurement errors are sample-specific. The values reported represent an approximate overall error. Some of the contributors of this error are measurements associated with estimating the sample volume, the exhaust duct flow rates, plateout factors, charcoal cartridge efficiencies, sample line vacuum, run time estimates, anisokinetic correction factors, and gravimetric, gamma spectroscopy, and liquid scintillation analysis errors.
ODCM release rate limits are based on dose rate, and the percent of ODCM limit shown in Table 3-4 is for the following limits. For fission and activation gases the dose rate limits are less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin. For I-131, particulates, and tritium the dose rate limit is less than or equal to 1500 mrem/year to any organ.

24 5.0 Meteorological Data The meteorological data contained in Tables 5-1 through 5-5 was obtained from a meteorological tower located 762 meters (2500 feet) west of Columbia Generating Station. Data was recovered from two sets of redundant instruments on the tower at the 10 meter (33-foot) and 75 meter (245-foot) levels. The meteorological data is a composite file generated from the automated data recovery systems for the calendar year 2017. Data is archived on the Energy Northwest Local Area Network.
Meteorological data recovery for 2017 was 91.7% at the 10 meter (33-foot) level.
Redundant wind and temperature sensors are installed at both levels of the meteorological tower. Data from the two systems can be combined to permit maximum data recovery for defined date ranges.
The data in Tables 5-1 through 5-4 provide joint frequency distributions (JFD) at the 10-meter level by quarter for 2017. These tables show the total hours at various wind speeds for each sector and stability class. The NRC stability classes A through G and eleven wind speed categories along with the 16 wind direction sectors were used to prepare each joint frequency table. Tables 5-5 provide the annual joint frequency distributions.
Wind speed is measured in miles per hour in the tables and speeds below 1.0 MPH were recorded as calms.
There are a number of atmospheric factors which affect dispersivity but which are not modeled in the CGS estimates of dispersion and deposition. Those conditions which were measured or documented at the Hanford Meteorological Station during 2017 were snow (30 inches), total precipitation (8.6 inches), dust or blowing dust (0 days), fog (79 days), thunderstorms (10 days), and smoke (17 day).

35 6.0 Dose Assessment -- IMPACT ON MAN Liquid Effluents - There were no liquid discharges from the radwaste processing system to the Columbia River during calendar year 2017. As such, the liquid dose reporting tables (Tables 6-1 through 6-4) described in the implementing procedure have been excluded from this report.
Gaseous Effluents - The NRC GASPAR II computer code was used to calculate doses at and beyond the site boundary using quarterly and annual meteorological data and site-specific variables as required and defined in the ODCM. Table 6-5 shows the highest calculated doses at and beyond the site boundary for Beta and Gamma air dose, skin dose, total body dose, and maximum organ dose. Table 6-6 provides the population collective dose within a 50-mile radius, and was obtained from the As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) annual integrated population dose summary (in person-rem) of the GASPAR computer code output file. Table 6-6 also provides the annual average individual doses associated with each pathway based on the population within 50 miles. These values were obtained by dividing the ALARA integrated dose (person-rem) by the 2010 US Census 50-mile population (448,383) and converting to mrem.
During the growing season, Columbia Generating Station conducts a five-mile land use census to determine the locations of nearest residents, gardens, and milk animals or other livestock out to five miles in each sector. The 2017 Land Use Census identified two broad leaf vegetable gardens but no milking animals within the 5-mile radius.
Cattle and horses were observed within 5-miles. As substantial commercial fruit orchards and corn crops were observed in all eastern sectors with residents, it was assumed that these crops were being consumed by the residents. The GASPAR code consumption rates were revised to reflect these differences.
Dose to Onsite Members of the Public The term Member of the Public includes all persons who are not occupationally associated with the plant. This category does not include employees of the utility, its contractors or vendors. This category does include persons who use portions of the site for recreational, occupational or other purposes not associated with the plant.
Dose was evaluated to Members of the Public that were not identified per the criteria of the 2017 Land Use Census. This includes non-Energy Northwest employees that work East of the site, in building associated with sites 1 and 4. The maximum dose from gaseous effluents to these individuals was estimated assuming exposure to the plume, inhalation, and ground deposition pathways and an occupancy factor consistent with ODCM section 3 as a bounding condition.
The following table (6.0) shows estimated dose to Members of the Public from gaseous effluents within the site boundary of Columbia Generating Station for a fraction of a year spent at each location.

the highest calculated annual dose at the 4.64 mile location in the E direction was 2.43E-01 mrem to the bone. The highest dose to the thyroid was 5.24E-02 mrem. The highest dose to the total body was 5.03E-02 mrem. The highest dose to the skin was 5.17E-02 mrem.
For environmental thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) stations at or beyond the site boundary, no significant increase in the average ambient exposure (control) was observed in 2017.
For a Boiling Water Reactor, demonstrating conformance with Appendix I of 10 CFR 50 is generally adequate for demonstrating compliance with 40 CFR 190 when the sources of direct radiation from various sources, including the ISFSI, are indistinguishable from background.
The information contained in Table 6-5 is consistent with previous effluent release reports from Columbia Generating Station. C-14 does not contribute to air dose; inhalation dose from C-14 is so small that it is not calculated by the NRC GASPAR computer code. There are no ingestion pathways for a hypothetical MOP at the site boundary. Quarterly and annual dose estimates in this table are made with joint frequency distribution and dispersion and deposition values derived from meteorological data specific to each time period.
The six sub-tables in Table 6-5 show maximum estimated exposure and dose at and beyond the site boundary. No residents were observed at the site boundary. The maximum exposure and dose beyond the site boundary is estimated for locations with actual residents.

- Rather than the sum of the quarters, the annual cumulative dose values are based on annual meteorological data and total annual effluents. For each time period, the dose
38 estimate uses the radionuclide mix and release rate for that period along with an estimate of the dispersion in air and deposition on ground and vegetation calculated by the NRC computer code XOQDOQ using actual meteorological conditions during the respective quarters. The dose estimate of the NRC computer code GASPAR uses, as base methodology, NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109 (1977) which includes the prospective dose component arising from retention in the body beyond the period of environmental exposure.

- These values are derived by dividing the 50-mile population collective doses by the population within 50 miles of Columbia Generating Station (448,383). The population estimate is based on the 2010 census conducted by the United States Census Bureau tabulated/compiled by the Washington State Office of Financial Management, Small Area Estimate Program. The Maximum Organ was the skin.
39 7.0 REVISIONS TO THE ODCM There was one change to the ODCM approved by the Plant Operations Committee during 2017.This change was to remove the word isokinetic from the description of the Main Plant Vent (Reactor Building Stack) monitoring system.
In January of 2018 the new Main Plant Vent Monitoring system was placed into service and the change to the ODCM was implemented as Amendment number 57.
The ODCM is included as an enclosure to the letter transmitting this "Radioactive Effluent Release Report in compliance with Columbia Technical Specification 5.5.1.
8.0 REVISIONS TO THE PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP)
The PCP is maintained as a Plant Operations Committee approved procedure, SWP-RMP-02. There were no changes to the PCP in 2017.
9.0 NEW OR DELETED LOCATIONS FOR DOSE ASSESSMENTS AND/OR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING LOCATIONS The 2017 5-Mile Land Use Census (LUC) did not identify any necessary changes to locations for dose assessments or environmental monitoring locations.
10.0 MAJOR CHANGES TO RADIOACTIVE LIQUID, GASEOUS, AND SOLID WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS No major changes (as defined by ODCM Section 6.4.3) were made to the radioactive waste systems (liquid, gaseous, or solid) during 2017.
11.0 Errata The Curies of Tritium reported as disposed of in the Dry Active Waste (DAW) category of the Solid Radwaste section of the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report for calendar year 2016 was over reported. The corrected annual cumulative Curies of DAW disposed of in 2016 is 4.77E-01. Section 4 of the 2016 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Report (ARERR) is included as an attachment to this report with revision bars indicating where the changes occurred.
40.0 - Correction to 2016 CGS ARERR The errata are only within section 4.0 of the 2016 CGS ARERR, so the pages of section 4.0 are included in their entirety in this attachment with revision bars.
41 4.0 Solid Radwaste This section of the annual effluent report provides information required by the Columbia Generating Station Offsite Dose Calculation Manual and recommended by Nuclear Regulatory Commission Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 1 (1974).

3 1.0 Introduction This report has been prepared in compliance with Part 50 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), specifically 10 CFR 50.36a(a)(2), and Columbia Generating Station (CGS) Technical Specification 5.6.2. It includes a summary of the quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents and solid radioactive waste released from CGS during calendar year 2017. Effluent data is summarized on a quarterly and annual basis.
Throughout this report, units of activity and dose are as defined in 10 CFR 20.1004, 20.1005, and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Regulatory Guide 1.109-1977.
The United States National Council on Radiation Protection published Report #160 in 2009 which can serve to put radiation dose into perspective for the reader of this report.
It was determined that the average yearly dose to a person living in the United States is 620 mrem from all sources. Of this, ~50% is attributed to natural sources (radiation from gaseous radon, cosmic or space radiation, natural radioactive material in the ground, and natural radioactive materials in our bodies). About 48% is attributed to diagnostic and therapeutic medical exposure. Radiation dose from nuclear power was grouped into a category comprising <0.1% of the total.
2.0 Liquid Effluents No planned releases of contaminated liquids from the liquid radwaste processing system were discharged to the Columbia River from CGS during calendar year 2017.
The last discharge to the river from liquid processing took place in 1998.
According to ground water monitoring, spills of greater than 100 gallons, and the leak detection system of the lined evaporation ponds, there is no indication of a leak or spill of radioactive liquids to ground water in 2017.
3.0 Gaseous Effluents Routine Releases Gaseous effluents from CGS are released from three (3) principal release points:
Main Plant Vent -- mixed mode release Turbine Building - mixed mode release Radwaste Building -- ground level release The gaseous source terms from each release point are listed in Tables 3-1, 3-2, and 3-
- 3. The activation gas argon-41 is included in these tables under fission gases to allow a match with the fission and activation gas totals of Table 3-4. Table 3-4 provides a summation of the total activity released, the average release rate, gross alpha radioactivity, and the estimated total error associated with the measurements of radioactivity in the gaseous effluents.
4 Radioactivity measurements for gaseous effluent releases are performed for fission and activation gases by collecting the samples in a Marinelli beaker and analyzing them using gamma spectroscopy. Air is analyzed for tritium by collection of water vapor on a desiccant with subsequent distillation and liquid scintillation counting. Particulates and iodines are sampled continuously and the sample media (particulate filters and charcoal cartridges) are analyzed weekly using gamma spectroscopy. Each quarter a chemical separation process is used to isolate strontium from the composite particulate filters and quantification is accomplished with liquid scintillation detection. The average energy per disintegration of fission and activation gases is not included in this report as it is not required by Technical Specifications and is not used for gaseous effluent release rate limit calculations.
When a radionuclide is not positively identified at levels greater than the Minimum Detectable Activity (MDA) or Minimum Detectable Concentration (MDC), a value of zero is used for release concentrations and offsite dose assessments. The MDA is an a posteriori value that is determined during analysis of a sample. Table 3-6 contains the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD - which is an a priori value determined before a sample is analyzed) values corresponding to the sampling methods and analytical instruments used for each principal radionuclide. Carbon-14 (C-14 or 14C) releases are calculated using an Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) methodology that is discussed in more detail later in this chapter.
The presence of fuel defects were identified in 2015, and continued into 2017, until fuel bundles could be inspected and removed during a refueling outage. The resulting dose contribution from elevated Noble Gas concentrations remains a small fraction of the10 CFR 50 Appendix I numerical guides. These doses are reported in Table 3-0 and Section 6.0.
Dose calculations were performed for releases using the NRC XOQDOQ and NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109 methodology (manually or with the GASPAR II computer program) and parameter values as described in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). This methodology was based on Publication 2 of the International Commission on Radiation Protection released in 1959.
Quarterly and annual doses to the potentially highest-exposed Member of the Public (MOP) at and beyond the site boundary were calculated. In addition, quarterly and annual doses were calculated at actual resident locations identified in the annual land use census. ODCM limits are based on 10 CFR 20 and Appendix I to 10 CFR 50. The threshold for air dose applies to fission and activation gases and is ten (10) mrad for beta and five (5) mrad for gamma quarterly and twenty (20) mrad for beta and ten (10) mrad for gamma annually. The threshold for organ dose applies to iodine, tritium, and particulates with half-lives greater than eight days and is seven and a half (7.5) mrem quarterly and fifteen (15) mrem annually.
The ODCM includes another set of release rate limits to provide operational flexibility and assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in exposure to a MOP in excess of the design objectives of Appendix I to 10 CFR 50.
For fission and activation gases the dose rate limits are less than or equal to 500 mrem per year to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem per year to the skin.
5 For iodines, particulates, and tritium the dose rate limit is less than or equal to 1500 mrem/year to any organ.
Dose calculations were also conducted for Members of the Public within the site boundary. The results are discussed and tabulated in Section 6.0.
There are release points around CGS that have been identified as unmonitored and evaluated for significance. Samples were taken in 2017 of the sources of these unmonitored releases.
Some of these release points include; Heating Steam Vents Cooling System Sediment Disposal Cell Lined Evaporation Ponds Condensate Storage Tanks The radionuclides released from these four points were evaluated and determined to be less than one percent of the total Curies released from all release points for the respective type of radionuclide in 2017. The radionuclides detected were Tritium (3H),
Cobalt-60 and Cesium-137, and the calculated activity discharged was 1.32E-01 Ci, 1.10E-08 Ci and 2.00E-08 Ci respectively. The evaluation was completed by either verifying the assumptions of previous bounding calculations, or by evaluating activity released based on sample data. Table 3-4 below was updated to include the activity from these three radionuclides.
Abnormal Release On December 9, 2017 at 00:30 in the morning, a relief valve on the shell side of Seal Steam Evaporator 1A lifted. This valve was reported closed at 01:30 that same morning. The steam released through this valve is exhausted through the Turbine building roof at a point that is not monitored for radiation. The make-up water to this evaporator is feedwater from the Main Condenser that has been filtered through the Condensate filter demineralizers. 3H is the suspected radionuclide of concern in this water, and a sample taken from the Turbine Building Roof confirmed that 3H was the only detectable radionuclide present. The flow rate through this discharge pipe is assumed to be 2.71E+05 cubic centimeters per minute; based on a previous event when the system pressure and relief valve setting were similar. The concentration of 3H in the feedwater was measured to be 2.42E-03 uCi/cc on December 4, 2017. This equates to 3.94E-02 Ci of 3H released while the relief valve was open.
The meteorological data before, during and after the time that the relief valve was open showed that a North Northeast wind was blowing. There are no residents within 5-miles of CGS in the South Southwest sector, and this amount of activity is less than one percent of the total 3H discharged from all release points in 2017. Therefore, the activity of 3.94E-02 has been added to the Curies of 3H reported in 4th quarter of Table 3-4 below and included in the dose calculations for the 4th quarter performed using the GASPAR II computer code.
6 Carbon-14 14C, with a half-life of 5,730 years, is a naturally occurring isotope of carbon produced by cosmic ray interactions in the atmosphere. When 14C decays it emits a beta particle of varying energies up to 0.156 MeV with an average energy of 0.049 MeV. As a result of this low energy, the air and inhalation doses are insignificant. Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount of 14C in the atmosphere. 14C is also produced in commercial nuclear reactors, but the amounts produced are much less than those produced naturally or from weapons testing.
Although 10 CFR 50.36a has always required reporting the principal nuclides released, 14C had been exempted because of the large quantity that existed naturally in the environment. However, following release of Revision 2 of Regulatory Guide 1.21 (Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste), the NRC recommended that U.S. nuclear power plants evaluate whether 14C is a "principal radionuclide", and if so, report the amount of 14C released.
A radionuclide is considered a principal radionuclide if it contributes either (1) greater than 1 percent of the 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I, design objective dose, or (2) greater than 1 percent of the activity of all radionuclides in the type of effluent being considered.
This implementation of primary radionuclides ensures both (1) radionuclides that are present in relatively large amounts but that contribute very little to dose, and (2) radionuclides that are present in very small amounts but that have a relatively high contribution to dose are appropriately included in the annual effluent report.
At CGS, improvements over the years have resulted in a significant decrease in radioactive gaseous emissions. As a result, 14C has become a "principal radionuclide" for the gaseous effluent pathway at CGS. The quantity of gaseous 14C released to the environment is estimated using a 14C source term scaling factor based on EPRI Technical Report 1021106 and power generation. The EPRI report estimates the production of 14C at approximately 5 Ci/GWth - yr for a plant like CGS. This would result in a potential release of 18.1 Ci/yr based on the rated power for CGS. The EPRI report also describes the chemical form of the 14C released as being 95% Carbon Dioxide, which could be incorporated into growing plants during photosynthesis. The remainder is assumed to be methane (CH4).
Table 3a contains estimates of 14C radioactivity released in 2017. Based on 95%
Carbon Dioxide, and assuming that all 14C generated is released in gaseous effluent, then the total 14C emission shown in Table 3a is 16.0 Ci. Estimates of public dose resulting from the 14C effluent are included in the doses reported in Section 6 of this report.
7 Table 3a - Carbon-14 Releases Out-of-Service Effluent Monitors The noble gas detector to the Main Plant Vent (Stack Monitor) was out-of-service from May 17th, 2017 to June 27th, 2017. This out-of-service time started due to planned maintenance on electrical switchgear (SM-7) during a refueling outage. The power outage itself did not last 30 days, but the detector did not cool down appropriately once power was restored. Work began to improve the cooling system required to support operation of this noble gas detector, but this work typically takes anywhere from several days to weeks to complete because of the nature of the cooling system. The detector was restored to functional status on 6/27/17.

- Calculated quarterly doses cannot be directly compared to the annual doses. Each above listed quarterly dose is the highest calculated dose based on a number of variables. Variables that make comparison difficult include location, seasonal changes in meteorological data (quarterly joint frequency distribution (JFD) tables vs. annual JFD tables), receptor age, target organ, and characteristics of the emitted radionuclides.
This table shows the highest air dose or organ dose for either a hypothetical resident at the site boundary or an actual resident within a 5-mile radius.
The pathways of exposure considered at the site boundary are the plume exposure, ground exposure, and inhalation pathways only. The potentially highest-exposed MOP from all gaseous effluent releases (including C-14) for 2017, was for a resident (child) at 4.64 miles E. The highest organ dose for the plume exposure, ground exposure, garden produce ingestion, and inhalation pathways was 2.43E-1 mrem which is 1.62% of the 15 mrem 10 CFR 50 Appendix I guideline. This location and assumed exposure pathways were based on the 2017 Land Use Census.

- Measurement errors are sample-specific. The values reported represent an approximate overall error. Some of the contributors of this error are measurements associated with estimating the sample volume, the exhaust duct flow rates, plateout factors, charcoal cartridge efficiencies, sample line vacuum, run time estimates, anisokinetic correction factors, and gravimetric, gamma spectroscopy, and liquid scintillation analysis errors.
ODCM release rate limits are based on dose rate, and the percent of ODCM limit shown in Table 3-4 is for the following limits. For fission and activation gases the dose rate limits are less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin. For I-131, particulates, and tritium the dose rate limit is less than or equal to 1500 mrem/year to any organ.

24 5.0 Meteorological Data The meteorological data contained in Tables 5-1 through 5-5 was obtained from a meteorological tower located 762 meters (2500 feet) west of Columbia Generating Station. Data was recovered from two sets of redundant instruments on the tower at the 10 meter (33-foot) and 75 meter (245-foot) levels. The meteorological data is a composite file generated from the automated data recovery systems for the calendar year 2017. Data is archived on the Energy Northwest Local Area Network.
Meteorological data recovery for 2017 was 91.7% at the 10 meter (33-foot) level.
Redundant wind and temperature sensors are installed at both levels of the meteorological tower. Data from the two systems can be combined to permit maximum data recovery for defined date ranges.
The data in Tables 5-1 through 5-4 provide joint frequency distributions (JFD) at the 10-meter level by quarter for 2017. These tables show the total hours at various wind speeds for each sector and stability class. The NRC stability classes A through G and eleven wind speed categories along with the 16 wind direction sectors were used to prepare each joint frequency table. Tables 5-5 provide the annual joint frequency distributions.
Wind speed is measured in miles per hour in the tables and speeds below 1.0 MPH were recorded as calms.
There are a number of atmospheric factors which affect dispersivity but which are not modeled in the CGS estimates of dispersion and deposition. Those conditions which were measured or documented at the Hanford Meteorological Station during 2017 were snow (30 inches), total precipitation (8.6 inches), dust or blowing dust (0 days), fog (79 days), thunderstorms (10 days), and smoke (17 day).

35 6.0 Dose Assessment -- IMPACT ON MAN Liquid Effluents - There were no liquid discharges from the radwaste processing system to the Columbia River during calendar year 2017. As such, the liquid dose reporting tables (Tables 6-1 through 6-4) described in the implementing procedure have been excluded from this report.
Gaseous Effluents - The NRC GASPAR II computer code was used to calculate doses at and beyond the site boundary using quarterly and annual meteorological data and site-specific variables as required and defined in the ODCM. Table 6-5 shows the highest calculated doses at and beyond the site boundary for Beta and Gamma air dose, skin dose, total body dose, and maximum organ dose. Table 6-6 provides the population collective dose within a 50-mile radius, and was obtained from the As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) annual integrated population dose summary (in person-rem) of the GASPAR computer code output file. Table 6-6 also provides the annual average individual doses associated with each pathway based on the population within 50 miles. These values were obtained by dividing the ALARA integrated dose (person-rem) by the 2010 US Census 50-mile population (448,383) and converting to mrem.
During the growing season, Columbia Generating Station conducts a five-mile land use census to determine the locations of nearest residents, gardens, and milk animals or other livestock out to five miles in each sector. The 2017 Land Use Census identified two broad leaf vegetable gardens but no milking animals within the 5-mile radius.
Cattle and horses were observed within 5-miles. As substantial commercial fruit orchards and corn crops were observed in all eastern sectors with residents, it was assumed that these crops were being consumed by the residents. The GASPAR code consumption rates were revised to reflect these differences.
Dose to Onsite Members of the Public The term Member of the Public includes all persons who are not occupationally associated with the plant. This category does not include employees of the utility, its contractors or vendors. This category does include persons who use portions of the site for recreational, occupational or other purposes not associated with the plant.
Dose was evaluated to Members of the Public that were not identified per the criteria of the 2017 Land Use Census. This includes non-Energy Northwest employees that work East of the site, in building associated with sites 1 and 4. The maximum dose from gaseous effluents to these individuals was estimated assuming exposure to the plume, inhalation, and ground deposition pathways and an occupancy factor consistent with ODCM section 3 as a bounding condition.
The following table (6.0) shows estimated dose to Members of the Public from gaseous effluents within the site boundary of Columbia Generating Station for a fraction of a year spent at each location.

the highest calculated annual dose at the 4.64 mile location in the E direction was 2.43E-01 mrem to the bone. The highest dose to the thyroid was 5.24E-02 mrem. The highest dose to the total body was 5.03E-02 mrem. The highest dose to the skin was 5.17E-02 mrem.
For environmental thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) stations at or beyond the site boundary, no significant increase in the average ambient exposure (control) was observed in 2017.
For a Boiling Water Reactor, demonstrating conformance with Appendix I of 10 CFR 50 is generally adequate for demonstrating compliance with 40 CFR 190 when the sources of direct radiation from various sources, including the ISFSI, are indistinguishable from background.
The information contained in Table 6-5 is consistent with previous effluent release reports from Columbia Generating Station. C-14 does not contribute to air dose; inhalation dose from C-14 is so small that it is not calculated by the NRC GASPAR computer code. There are no ingestion pathways for a hypothetical MOP at the site boundary. Quarterly and annual dose estimates in this table are made with joint frequency distribution and dispersion and deposition values derived from meteorological data specific to each time period.
The six sub-tables in Table 6-5 show maximum estimated exposure and dose at and beyond the site boundary. No residents were observed at the site boundary. The maximum exposure and dose beyond the site boundary is estimated for locations with actual residents.

- Rather than the sum of the quarters, the annual cumulative dose values are based on annual meteorological data and total annual effluents. For each time period, the dose
38 estimate uses the radionuclide mix and release rate for that period along with an estimate of the dispersion in air and deposition on ground and vegetation calculated by the NRC computer code XOQDOQ using actual meteorological conditions during the respective quarters. The dose estimate of the NRC computer code GASPAR uses, as base methodology, NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109 (1977) which includes the prospective dose component arising from retention in the body beyond the period of environmental exposure.

- These values are derived by dividing the 50-mile population collective doses by the population within 50 miles of Columbia Generating Station (448,383). The population estimate is based on the 2010 census conducted by the United States Census Bureau tabulated/compiled by the Washington State Office of Financial Management, Small Area Estimate Program. The Maximum Organ was the skin.
39 7.0 REVISIONS TO THE ODCM There was one change to the ODCM approved by the Plant Operations Committee during 2017.This change was to remove the word isokinetic from the description of the Main Plant Vent (Reactor Building Stack) monitoring system.
In January of 2018 the new Main Plant Vent Monitoring system was placed into service and the change to the ODCM was implemented as Amendment number 57.
The ODCM is included as an enclosure to the letter transmitting this "Radioactive Effluent Release Report in compliance with Columbia Technical Specification 5.5.1.
8.0 REVISIONS TO THE PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP)
The PCP is maintained as a Plant Operations Committee approved procedure, SWP-RMP-02. There were no changes to the PCP in 2017.
9.0 NEW OR DELETED LOCATIONS FOR DOSE ASSESSMENTS AND/OR ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING LOCATIONS The 2017 5-Mile Land Use Census (LUC) did not identify any necessary changes to locations for dose assessments or environmental monitoring locations.
10.0 MAJOR CHANGES TO RADIOACTIVE LIQUID, GASEOUS, AND SOLID WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS No major changes (as defined by ODCM Section 6.4.3) were made to the radioactive waste systems (liquid, gaseous, or solid) during 2017.
11.0 Errata The Curies of Tritium reported as disposed of in the Dry Active Waste (DAW) category of the Solid Radwaste section of the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report for calendar year 2016 was over reported. The corrected annual cumulative Curies of DAW disposed of in 2016 is 4.77E-01. Section 4 of the 2016 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Report (ARERR) is included as an attachment to this report with revision bars indicating where the changes occurred.
40.0 - Correction to 2016 CGS ARERR The errata are only within section 4.0 of the 2016 CGS ARERR, so the pages of section 4.0 are included in their entirety in this attachment with revision bars.
41 4.0 Solid Radwaste This section of the annual effluent report provides information required by the Columbia Generating Station Offsite Dose Calculation Manual and recommended by Nuclear Regulatory Commission Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 1 (1974).
