5 HP 1608 Revision 2 01/19/76 THREE MILE ISLAND NUCLEAR STATION STATION HEALTH PHYSICS PROCEDURE 1608 - Air Sampling for Tritium 1.0 PUR'0SE The purpose of this procedure is to describe in detail the procedure for Air Sampling for Tritium.

2.0 DISCUSSION Tritium is a radioactive form of hydrogen which exists in nature in very small amounts; but can be produced artificially by a nuclear reaction. Tritium has a half life of 12.26 years. Since Tritium emits a soft Beta (18 kev) and it can be a potential internal hazard, monitoring is difficult ar.d counting must be done by internal liquid scintillation counting.
