3.9.3 The rate of release of radioactive materials in liquid waste from the station shall be controlled such that the instantaneous concentrations of radioactivity in liquid waste upon release from the Restricted Area, does not exceed the values listed in 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2.

3.9.4 The equipment installed in the liquid radioactive waste system shall be maintained and operated for the purposes of keeping releases with-in the objectives of these specifications and shall process all liquids prior to their discharge in order to limit the activity, excluding tritium and dissolved noble gases, released during any calendar quarter to 1.25 curies or less per unit.

3.9.5 As far as practicable, the releases of liquid waste shall be co-ordinated with the operation of the Keowee Hydro unit.

l 3.9.6 Liquid waste discharged from the liquid waste disposal system shall be continuously monitored during release.

The liquid effluent monitor reading shall be compared with the expected reading of each discharge batch.

The monitor shall be tested daily or prior to 7

releases and calibrated at refueling intervals.

The calibration procedure chall consist of exposing the detector to a referenced calibration source in a controlled, reproductible geometry.

The sources and geometry shall be referenced to the original monitor calibration which provides the applicable calibration curves.

l 3.9.7 The effluent control monitor shall be set to alarm and automatically close the waste discharge valve such that the appropriste require-ments of the specification are met.

In the event that the effluent control monitor is inoperable or cannot be calibrated to perform this function, the following will be performed to assure that prescribed release limits are not exceeded:

A redundant valve lineup check of the effluent pathway and redundant sample analyses will be performed prior to each liquid effluent release.

These additional actions will be applicable until December 1, 1976.

i 3.9.8 In addition to the continuous monitoring requirements, liquid radio-active waste sampling and activity analysis shall be performed in accordance with Table 4.1.3.

Records shall be maintained and reorts of the sampling and analysis shall'be submitted in accordance with Section 6.6 of these Technical Specifications.

Bases l

It is expected that the releases of radioactive materials and liquid wastes l

will be kept within the design objective icvels and will not exceed the con-l centration limitn npecified in 10CFR20.

These levels provide the reasonabic k

aneurance that the' resulting annual exposure to the whole body. or any in-

{

dividual body organ will not exceed 5 millirem per year. At the same time, the,licennee is permitted the ficxibility of' operation compatible with f

3.9-2 Amendments Nos. 31, 31 & 28 I

considerations of ticalth and safety to assure that the public is provided a dependable setrte of power under unusual operating conditions which may temporarily result in releases higher than design objective levels but still within the concentration limits specified in 10CFR20.

It is expected that when using this operational flexibility under unusual operating conditions, tbc. licensee shall exert every effort to keep the levels of radioactive

. : rials and liquid wastes as low as practicable and that annual releases m

r-[?. not exceed a small fraction of the annual average concentration limits epecified in 10CFR20.
