$} { ( DRAFT EWIRONMENTAL STATE"ENT THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR STATION, U'iIT 2 Docket No. 50-320 3.1 Resune' The licuid, gaseous and solid radioactive waste treatment systens have not been modified since the FES-CP (issued December 1972). These systers have been reassessed using revised parameters and rathenatical codels for calculating the releases of radioactive caterials in liquid and gasecus effluents. 3.2.3 Radioactive Naste Since the Final Environmental Statement (FES-CP) was issued (December 1972), the applicant has not modified the liquid, gaseous and solid radwaste treatment systens as described in the Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR). The staff has calculated new liquid and gaseous source terns based on core recent operating data applicable to the Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 2 and changes in our calculational codels. Cn April 30, 1975, the Nuclear Regulatory Cornission announced its decision in the rulemaking proceeding (RM 50-2) concerning nucerical guides for design objectives and limiting conditions for operation to meet the criterion "as Icw as practicable" for radioactive caterial in light-water-cooled nucicar power reactor effluents. This decision is i plemented in the form of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. To effectively implement the requircrents of Appendix I, the NRC ,,, T '. / u j le 6 ....-, - - -.----~ ---

j ^ ~') () l staff has reassessed the paramet:rs cond rathematical models used in j calculating releases of radicactive materials in licuid and gaseous I effluents in order to comply with the Commission's guidance. I This guidance directed that current operating data, applicable to proposed radwaste treatnent and effluent control systems for a i facility, be considered in the assessmant of the input parameters. i The staff has ccapleted its reassessment and these parancters, models and their bases are given in Rasulatory Guide 1.33, " Calculation of Releases of Radicactive 'daterials in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents froa Pressurized Water Reactors (PWR's)," Septenber 9, 1975. i i In compliance with appendix I regulations, for a plant for which application for a construction pernit was made prior to January 2, 1971, within a period of twelve months from June 4, 1975, the applicant must file with the Commission: (1) Such information as is necessary to evaluate the means employed for keeping levels of radicactivity in effluents to unrestricted areas as 1cw as prac-ticable, including all such information as is required by Section 50.34(a), (b) and (c) not already contained in his application; and (2) plans and propcsed Technical Specificaticns developed for the purpose of keeping releases of radioactive natorials to unrestricted areas during normal reactor operations, including expected operational occurrences, as Icw as practicable.

O O -s-staff has prepared upper bcund estimates of the potential effect on the estinated radiological environmental impact. The dose esticates discussed in Section (*) used these revised c -:imates of expected annual releases of radioactive naterials in liquid and gaseous effluents from Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, Unit 2. The parameters used in the staff's evaluation of the liquid and gaseous radioactive waste treatment systeas for Three Mile Island, Unit 2 are listed in Table 3.1, based on the guidelines of Regulatory Guide 1.BB (September 9, 1975). The staff estinates that the rsdio-nuclide composition set furth in Tables 3. 2 and 3.3 reasonably characterizes the annual average calculated releases of radioactive material in liquid and gaseous effluents for the Three Mile Island ':uclear Station, Unit 2. The capability of the liquid and gaseous radioactive waste treatment systems to meet the recuirements of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 will be discussed in a supplement to the SER-OL. 3.2.3.5 Evaluation The liquid source term calculated for each reactor using the parameters in Regulatory Guide 1.BB (September 9,1975), given in Table 3.1, is 0.24 Ci/yr excluding tritiua, and 550 Ci/yr of tritium. The gasecus source term for the NEPA upper bound dose assessment based on the parameters given in Tabic 3.1, is approximately 16,000 Ci/yr of noble gases, 0.01 Ci/yr of iodine-131, 560 Ci/yr of tritina, 25 Ci/yr of ar20n-41 and 0.06 Ci/yr of particulates.

- Tne licuid source term calculated for Unit 2 using the para:aeters in the FES-CP was 5 Ci/yr, excluding tritium, and 1000 Ci/yr of tritium.
Tne gascous source term calculated for Unit 2 using the paraneters in the FES-CP.eas 3900 Ci/yr of noble gases and 0.12 Ci/yr of iodine-131. Tne Technical Specifications u sued at the time of the c perating licenses will establish effluent re12ase limits which eill assure that the 1pplicant crerates the facilitias in ccnfor-cance with the recuirements of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. ix.sen
