SUBJECT:
THREE MILE ISLAND MORIII:3 BURP OF RADIOACTIVITY If the release of 63 Ci/sec of radioactive gas lagted for one hour, the total activity released is 2.3 x 10 Ci.
This is 240 times the release rate calculated for the first 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> of the LOCA ~ accident in the FSAR, so that the dose rate should be about 240 times'th'e LOCA projection of (15'.R/h r ) at 2000 febt from~the plant, or about'14 mR/hr at two miles.
What was measured at the river shore, about tuo miles off site,-uhs ~ 1/10~-~o f' th is, about 14 mR/hr.-
This difference is reasonable conuidering the_ lack of-
