GENER AL C0hTEMIS OF THE DJ'i
Section 1 - Set Points Provice the enua tions ana rethoddlocy to be used at the sta ticr. ce cc.i t for ea:n alarx and tric set point on each ef fluent release poir. acccedi g to the Speci fications 3.3.3.6 and 3.3.3.9.
Provide the alarn and control location, the monitor description, location, ocwer source, scale, range and identification number, and the ef fluent isciation control device, its location, po..er source and identification nu,ber.
If the set point value is variable, provide the enuation to be used to predetermine the set coint value that will assure that the Specification is met at each release point, and the value to be used when reh.ses are not in progress.
If dilution or dispersion is used, describe the on-site equipment and measurement method used during release, the site related parameters and the set ooints used to assure that the Specification is met at each release point, in-cluding any admir.istrative controls applicable at the station or unit.
The fixed and predetermined set points should consider the radioactive ef fluent to have a radionuclide distribution represented by normal and anticipated operational occurrences. Other features, such as surveillance requirements and the calibration method, should be addressed.
Section 2 - Liquid Effluent Concentration Previde the equations and methodology to be used at the station or unit for each liquid release point according to the Specification 3.11.1.1.

-2 continuous and/or batch releases, the assumptions used for r.anual and autc-s natic terr.ination of releases should be provided.
For batch rel(ases, the calculational rethods, ecuations and assumptions'used, tocether with the pre-release ar.d post-release analyses should be provided.
Otner fea ures, such as surveillance requirenents, sanpling and analysis progran, detection limitations and representative sampling should be addressed.
Section 3 - Gaseous Ef fluent Dose Rate Provide the ecuations and methodology to be used at the station or unit for each gaseous release point according to Specification 3.11.2.1.
Consider the various pathways, release point elevations, site related parameters and radionuclide contr.ibution to the dose inpact limitation.
Provide the equa-tions and assumptions used, stipulating the'pa thway, receptor location and receptor age.
Provide the dose factors to'be used for the identified radio-nuclides released.
Provide the annual average dispersion values (X/0 and D/Q), the site specific parameters and rel' ease point elevations. Other features, such as surveilla ce requirements, sampling and analysis orogran, detection limitations and representative sampling should be addressed.
Section 4 - Liquid Effluent Dose Provide the equations and methodology to be Used at the station or unit for each liquid release point according to the dose cbjectives given in Speci-fications 3.11.1.2.
The section should describe how the dose contributions
'are to be calculated for the various pathways and release poikts, the equations and assumptions to be used, the site specific parameters to be
reasured and used, the receptor incation by direction and oist6nce,

The dese fictors, pathway transfer factors, rathstay usage factcrs, and dilution factors for the Doints of pathway oricin, etc., should be civen, as well as receptor age group, water and food consumption rate and other factors assumed or neasured.
Provide the nethod of detennining the dilu-tkon factor at the discharge during any liouid ef fluent release and any site specific paraneters used in these deterninations.
Other features such as surveillance requirements, sampling and analysis program, detection limitations and representative sampling should be addressed.
Section 5 - Gaseous Ef fluent Dose Provide the equations and methodology to be used at the station or unit for each gaseous release point according to the dose objectives given in Speci-fications 3.11.2.2 and 3.11.2.3.
The section should describe how the dose contributions are to be calculated for the various pathways and release points, the equations and assunptions to be used, the site specific para-meters to be measured and used, the receptor location by direction and dis-tance, and the method estinating and updating cumulative doses due to gaseous releases.
the location direction and distance to the nearest residence, cow, goat, meat animal, garden, etc., should be given, as well as receptor age group, crop yield, grazing time and other factors assumed or measured.
Provide the method of determining dispersion values (X/Q and D/Q) for short-term and long-term releases and any site specific parameters
