e l.0 ' INTRODUCTION This report describes the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) for the Waterford 3 Steam Electric Station and discusses the results obtained during the calendar year 1993. The.results discussed in this report were used to evaluate the radiological environmental impact resulting ? rum the operation of Waterford 3. The . submission of this report to the duciaar Regulatory Commission (NRC) fulfills the requirements pursuant to Waterford 3 Technical Specification 6.9.L7.

1.1 Proaram and Report Ob.iectives The objective of the monitoring program is to evaluate the radiological environmental impact of the plant. In order to conduct this evaluation, the data analyses and interpretations contained it, this report fulfill the following specific objectives:

a. to iientify any radioactive materials or radiation. in the environment associated with plant operation,
b. to compare the results obtained during the reporting period with past operational and pre-operational data and identify any trends associated with accumulation of radioactivity in the environment; and
c. to verify compliance with federal regulatory requirements.

1.2 E13nt and Site Descriotion Waterford 3 employs a pressurized water reactor for the production of approximately 1153 gross (1104 net) megawatts of electricity.

The station uses a flow of water obtained from and discharged to the Mississippi River for condenser cooling. On March 4, 1985, the unit achieved initial criticality.

1

The plant is located on the west bank of the Mississippi River at River Mile 129.6 between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana.

The site is in the northwestern section of St. Charles Parish approximately 3 miles southeast of the St. John the Baptist Parish boundary between the towns of Killona and Taft. The Mississippi River is the closest prominent natural feature; other features include Lac des Allemands, about 5.5 miles southwest of the site, and Lake Ponchartrain, about 7 miles northeast of the site.

Most of the man-made features are located on the narrow strip of land between the Mississippi River and the wetlands. Specifically, several industrial facilities including Waterford I and 2 Steam Electric Stations (0.4 miles northwest), Little Gypsy Steam Electric Station (0.8 miles northeast), IMC Agrico, a fertilizer manufacturer (0.6 miles east southeast), Occidental Chemical Company (0.8 miles east southeast), and Union Carbide, a chemical manufacturer (1.2 miles east southeast) are operating in the area.

Major urban centers in the region include New Orleans (approximately 25 miles east) and Baton Rouge (approximately 50 miles west northwest). Communities near the site in-St. Charles Parish include Killona (0.9 miles west northwest), Montz (1.0 miles north), Norco (2.5 miles east), Hahnville (3.7 miles east southeast), and Destrehan (6.3 miles east southeast). Laplace (4.7 miles north) is located in St. John the Baptist Parish.

2.0 PROGRAM lESCRIPTION A general swomary of the REMP is given in Table 2.1; brief descriptions and locations of the sampling stations are presented in Table 2.2. In addition, station locations are illustrated in Figures 2.1 through 2.3.

A more detailed description of the REMP is provided below.

i2.1 History and Development The Waterford 3 REMP evolved from the Pre-operational Environmental Radiological Surveillance (PERS) program (1978-1982) and was initiated in April of 1983. Equipment, procedures, techniques, and

. sampling locations used during the pre-operational survey were incorporated into the operational program. Further, the environmental data collected during the first two years of the REMP (1983 and 1984), prior to initial criticality, were used to supplement the baseline established during the PERS Program. .

2.2 Responsibilities ,

Waterford 3 personnel are responsible for implementing and insuring - _

that the REMP complies with federal regulatory, Technical Specification, and Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (0DCM)- ,

requirements. Responsibilities'of Waterford 3 personnel include collecting (with the exception of fish samples), preparing, and shipping of environmental samples; conducting environmental dosimetry measurements; reviewing analytical results reports; and preparing and submitting the ;nnual Radiological Environmental-

~

Monitoring and other relevant reports to the Nuclear Regulatury Commission.

The primary contractor, Entergy Services, Inc. (ESI) System Chemistry located in Little Rock, Arkansas, is responsible for performing radiological analyses; conducting initial data review; preparing results reports; and overseeing laboratory quality assurance and control. Additionally, a separate contractor the Fisheries Co-operative Extension Service of Louisiana State.

University, is responsible for the collection of fish samples.

-2.3 Samole Collection and Handlina Procedures Sample types, location, collection frequency, and the analyses performed are summarized in Tables 2.1 and 2.2. The information contained in these tables is based on requirements specified in Table 5.8-1 of the Waterford 3 ODCM. Location maps of the sampling are illustrated in Figures 2.1 through 2.3. Any stations deviations (i.e., unavailable samples and missed lower limits of detection) or changes made to the REMP during 1993 are discussed in Section 3.6.

The environmental samples collected are classified into four general categories according to exposure pathways: direct radiation, airborne, waterborne, and ingestion. Sample collection and handling procedures are described in the following sections.

The descriptions are intended to provide a concise procedural overview rather than a step-by-step description.

2.3.1 Direct Radiation Exposure Pathway Samoles Integrated external gamma exposure, determined using Panasonic Multi-element thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs),

was measured at thirty-one locations as follows:

a. an inner ring of stations, one in each of the sixteen meteorological sectors, in the general area of the site boundary;
b. an outer ring of stations, one in ten of the sixteen meteorological sectors, in the six to eight kilometer range from the site; and
c. the balance placed in areas-of special interest (e.g.,

population centers, schools, etc.) with one area serving as a control.

The TLDs were exchanged and analyzed quarterly by Waterford -

3 personnel.

4

2.3.2 Airborne Exoosure Pathway Samoles Samples of airborne particulates and radiolodines were collected at four indicator stations (APP-1, APQ-1, APG-1, APC-1) and one control station (APE-30). Low-volume air pumps and flow totalizers in weather proof shelters provided continuous air sampling.

Using the sampling device described above, airborne particulate samples were obtained on a lilter and collected weekly by Waterford 3 personnel for shipment to the contract laboratory for gross beta analysis. The filters were composited quarterly by the contract laboratory for isotopic analysis by gamma spectroscopy.

Airborne iodine sampling was done in conjunction with air particulate sampling using a charcoal cartridge to collect iodine. The cartridges were collected weekly by Waterford 3 personnel and sent to the contract laboratory for-iodine-131 rinalysis by gamma spectroscopy.

2.3.3 llaterborne Exposure Pathway Samoles Because the plant discharges into the Mississippi River, the major source of drinking water in the vicinity of Waterford 3, water samples taken from the Mississippi River were designated as both drinking and surface water samples.

Composite drinking / surface water samples were obtained biweekly from the Mississippi River using automatic composite samplers placed at one upstream (DWP-7/SWP-7) and two downstream (DWG-2/SWG-2, DWE-5/SWE-5) locatir - .

Hydrochloric acid was added to each sample prior to shipment. The contract laboratory analyzed the biweekly samples for iodine-131, compositeo them monthly for gross beta and gamma spectroscopy, and composited them quarterly for tritium analysis.

5 l

Due to the high water table resulting from shallow aquifers in the vicinity of the site, drainage canal sampling represents groundwater discharge. Groundwater was obtained quarterly by grab sampling from one sampling location (GWK-1). Again, hydrochloric acid was added to the sample. prior to shipment to the contract laboratory for tritium and gamma spectroscopy analyses.

Shoreline sediment samples were obtained semi-annually from a sampling station at each plant discharge point. Station SHWE-3 is located downstream on the shoreline of the Mississippi River; station SHWK-1 is on the shoreline of the 40-Arpent canal. The samples were shipped without further processing.

2.3.4 Inaestion Exoosure Pathway Samolqi Milk samples were collected semi-monthly from one indicator location (MKQ-5) and one control location (MKQ-45).

Sampling of the control station was performed by Louisiana Radiation Protection Division personnel. Although one additional indicator location was identified (MKQ-1), no samples were available from this location during 1993 (see Section3.6). Finally, formaldehyde was added as a preservative to all samples prior to shipment. Upon arrival at the laboratory, iodine-131 and gamma spectroscopy analyses were performed.

Fish samples were collected bi-annually from the Mississippi River upstream (FH-1) and downstream (FH-2) from the plant.

A contractor performed the sampling by netting.

Subsequently, the fish were segregated by specier and location prior to delivery to Waterford 3. The samples were shipped frozen for analysis by gamma spectroscopy.

6

The Waterford 3 ODCM, Section 5.8.1, requires broad leaf vegetation to be sampled from 3 locations within 5 miles of the plant in the event milk samples are unavailable. Since milk samples were collected from only one sampling location within five miles of Waterford 3, broad leaf vegetation was sampled monthly at two indicator locations (BLQ-1 and BLB-1) and one control location (BLK-15). The samples were shipped without further processing.

Food product sampling was not required because no areas surrounding the plant were irrigated with water in which plant wastes are discharged. However, food products grown within the site boundary were collected to demonstrate the absence of radionuclide accumulation.

These food product samples (sugarcane) were collected at the time of harvest from two locations (FPP-1 and FPP-1) by normal harvesting techniques and shipped without further processing. Iodine-131 and gamma spectroscopy analyses were performed.

2.4 Analytical Procedures A brief synopsis of the analytical procedures used by ESI System Chemistry and Waterford 3 are given in Appendix 0 to provide an overview of the program.

The minimum sensitivities for the analytical procedures are reflected by the Lower Limits of Detection (LLD)t values presented in Table 2.3 from Table 5.8-3 of Waterford 3 00CM. The LLD's are a oriori estimates based on assumed sample volumes, counting times, detector efficiencies, etc. Analyses that could not achieve these lower limits of detection are discussed in Section 3.6.

7

2.5 Laboratory Ouality Assurance During 199', the ESI System Chemistry laboratory performed between 5% and 10% of all analyses for quality assurance purposes. Spiked and blank samples were prepared in-house. In addition, the laboratory participated in the EPA Radiological Interlaboratory Comparison (cross-check) Program.

This quality assurance program satisfies the requirements of the Waterford 3 ODCM, Section 5.8.2, for participation in an interlaboratory comparison program. The program involved analyses on various sample media typically found in the REMP. As a result of participation in the program, an objective measure of analytical precision and accuracy was obtained. In the event that results obtained by ESI System Chemistry were not within control limits (3 standard deviations), an investigation was conducted to determine the cause, and corrective action was taken to prevent a recurrence.

Appendix C lists the 1993 results of the laboratory's participation in the cross-check program, i

3.0 DISCUSSION OF RESULTS Analytical results for the year 1993 are discussed in this section by exposure pathway, sample type, and analysis performed. Further, analytical results focusing only on man-made radioactivity are summarized in Appendix A; data for the individual analyses are presented in the tables of Appendix B.

3.1 Direct Radiation Exoosure Pathway The average exposure rates measured by thermoluminscent dosimeters (TLDs) at both control and indicator stations were 12, 12, 11, and 16 mrem / standard quarter for the first, second, third, and fourth quarters of 1993 respectively. The average exposure rate of the 123 indicator TLD locations was 13 mrem / standard quarter compared to 11 mrem / standard quarter werage exposure rate at the control location. The lowest and nighest individual exposure rates were 8 mrem / standard quarter (D-2, 2nd quarter; C-1 and E-15, 3rd quarter) and 23 mrem / standard qaarter (R-6, 4th quarter), respectively, for all locations. Table 3.1 compares the indicator TLD results by directional sector and distance from the facility. A comparison of directional sectors indicates the highest average exposure rate in 1993 to be 14 mrem / standard quarter in Sectors A,B,.N, and P.

The average exposure rates during 1993 are consistent with those from the pre-operational program and the previous five years of operation (Figure 3.1). In particular, the pre-operational survey indicates that exposure rates ranged between 11 and 33 mrem /

standard quarter with an average of 20 mrem / standard quarter.

Similarly, the range indicated during the previous five years of operation was from 7 to 24 mrem / standard quarter with an average exposure rate of 13 mrem / standard quarter.

3.2 Airborne Exoosure Pathway 3.2.1 Airboine Partic11ates Gross m a activity ranged from 0.004 pCi/m3 (APG-1, 8/2-8/10 and apt-30, 8/31-9/7) to 0.032 pCi/m3 (APQ-1, 7/20-7/27) with-3 an average of 0.014 pC1/m for 257 measurem?ats from all five locations. The average groes beta activity for the indicator (APG-1, APQ-1, APP-I APC-1) locations was 0.014 f

pCi/m3 compared to 0.015 pCi/m at the control (APE-30) location.

26

w ,

l The gross beta activity results obtained during 1993 are

. consistent with those from the pre-operational program and the previous five years of operation (Figure 3.2). ,

Specifically, the pre-operational survey indicates that in '

periods not significantly influenced by nuclear weapons testing the gross beta activity ianged between 0.007 and 0.48 pCi/m3 with an average of .08 pCi/m 3 Similarly, the range indicated during the previous five years of operation 3

was from 0.003 to 0.046 pCi/m with an average activity of 0.016 pCi/m3 .

3.2.2 Airborne Iodine All of the 257 airborne iodine-131 results were below the calculated lower limit of detection (LLD). The sample LLD variability (0.010 to 0.035 pCi/m 3) was due primarily to the difference in air sample volumes.

3.2.3 Gamma Isotopic Analysis Gamma spectroscopy results of the twenty air sample quarterly composites ir.'icate that no man-made radionuclides were detected above the P respective lower limits of detection.

3.3 Waterborne Exposure Pathway 3.3.1 Drinkina/ Surface Water As mentioned previously, drinking water samples also serve as surface water samples for Waterford 3. Therefore, monthly and quarterly gamma spectroscopy analyses of drinking water and quarterly tritium analyses also satisfy the surface water sampling requirement.

Seventy-seven composite drinking / surface water samples were analyzed by a radiochemical procedure for iodine-131 (Table B-4). Iodine was detected in one indicator sample (DWG-2,

, 6/15-6/29) and in one control sample (DWP-7,11/2-11/16) at an average concentration of 0.2 pCi/1. Iodine-131 was detected in several preoperational samples at an average concentration of 0.4 pCi/1, The levels detected in the 1993 samples were well below reporting levels and the LLD required by the Waterford 3 ODCM and has a high degree of uncertainty associated with it.

27

Gross beta activity was detected in twenty-seven of the thirty-nine composites with a range of 2.2 (DWE-5, 6/29-7/27) to 11.7 (DWG-2, 9/21-10/19) pCi/1 and an average activity of 5.8 pCi/1. The average activity for the control location, DWP-7, was 4.9 pCi/1 compared to the averages of 6.3 and 5.8 pCi/l for indicator stations DWG-2 and DWE-5 respectively.

Analyses for gross beta in drinking / surface water were not performed during the pre-operational survey. However, in order to fulfill comparison requirements,1993 data will be compared to data from the 1983 report and the previous five years of operation.

The grose, beta activity results obtained during 1993 are consiste:nt with those from the 1983 reporting period and the previor.s five years of operation (Figure 3.3). In particular, the 1983 survey indicates that in periods not significantly influenced by nuclear weapons testing the gross beta activity ranged between 2.9 and 14.0 pCi/l with an aserage of 7.0 pCi/1. Similarly, the range indicated during the previous five years of operation was from 1.1 to 11 pCi/l with an average activity of 4.3 pCi/1.

Tritium analysis of drinking / surface water samples indicate that all of the twelve measurements were.below the calculated LLD.

3.3.2 Groundwater Four groundwater samples were collected / rom one sampling location, GWK-1, and analyzed for tritium and gamma emitters. Gamma emitters were not detected; however, tritium was detected in two of the four samples at concentrations of 270 +/- 260 and 440 +/-260 pCi/1.

The tritium concentrations detected in 1993 are consistent with those from the pre-operational program and the previous five years of operation. In particular, .the pre-operational survey indicates that tritium concentrations in groundwater samples ranged between 50 and 180 pCi/l with an average o'?

121 pCi/1. Similarly, the range indicated in 'the previous five years of operation was from 270 to 650 pCi/1. Tritium-levels detected in 1993 are well below the reporting levels and the LLD required by the Waterfora 3 ODCM, and have a high degree of uncertainty associated with it.

28

3.3.3 Shoreline Sediment Four shoreline soil samples were collected f *he following sampling locations: two samples ft'. the Mississippi River shoreline downriver of the plant (SHWE-3) and two samples from the shoreline of a drainage canal (SHWK-1).

Naturally occurring radionucli.ts including potassium-40, radium-226, and actinium-228 were detected in all of the samples. Cesium-137, a man-made nuclide was detected in samples from station SHWK-1 at concentrations of 37 and 35 pCi/kg(dry). No other man-made radionuclides were detected in any of the samples.

.: The cesium-137 results obtained during 1993 are consiste:it h with those from the pre-operational program and the prcvious five years of operation. In particular, the pre-operational survey indicates that cesium-137 was c'etected in 9 of 14 soil samples at concentrations ranging between 30 and 890 pCi/kg(dry) with an average concentration of 164 pCi/kg (dry). Similarly, the range indicated during the previous five years of operation was from 18 to 142 pCi/kg (dry) with an average activity of 53 pCi/kg (dry) respectively.

Further, studies in Louisiana indicate that cesium-137 is commonly found in soils and sediments as a result of atmospheric weapon testing. Because the cesium-137 levels are consistent with pre-operational values and cesium-137 has been shown to be present in most Louisiana soils, these cesium-137 levels are more than likely attributable to weapon testing fallout.

3.4 Incestion Exoosure Pathway 3.4.1 tillh Forty-eight milk samples were collected from two sampling locations and analyzed by gamma spectroscopy and a radiochemical procedure for iodine-131. Naturally occurring potassium-40 was detected in all samples. Additional results from these analyses indicate that iodine-131 was detected in one indicator (MKQ-5, 11/17) and one control (MKQ-45,11/30) location at concentrations of 0.3 +/- 0.2.

and 0.2 +/- 0.2 pCi/ liter, respectively. Iodine-131 was detected in preoperational samples at an average concentration of 1.3 pCi/ liter and a range of 0.7 to 2.5 pCi/ liter. The levels detected in 1993 are below both reporting levels and the LLD required by the Waterford 3 ODCM and have a high degree of uncertainty associated with l them.

3.5 Statistical Analyses 3.5.1 -Calculation of the Mean and Standard Deviation 1

The mean and standard deviation for different groups of analyses are calculated using the following: equations:

x = mean of sample' population, s - standard deviation of. sample population,y n . number of samples Lin sample population, and p - value of the i'th sample.

x 30

3,5.2 Comparing Two Sample Population Means The means of two sample populations are compared for-statistical difference using the standard "t" test. The use 4 of the test requires the assumption that the data within the populations are normally distributed and that the true standard deviations of the mean are equal for both populations. The standard "t" test tests the hypothesis that the true means of both populations are equal. The "t" value can be calculated from the equation below (obtained from the CRC Standard Mathematical Tables, 26th Edition (1981)):

(F-3)

where:

If the data from both sample populations are treated as correlated pairs, the difference between individual measurements can be examined using the statistical "t" test.

In this case, if the true means and true standard deviations for the sample populations are equal, the difference between the correlated data points should be normally distributed about a mean of zero. The "t" value can be calculated from the following equation (obtained from the CRC Standard Mathematical Tables, 26th Edition (1981)):

The calculated "t" value in both cases is used to test the hypothesis that the true mean of the first population (# ,)

=/2), and degrees of freedom n (n-n ,+n y -2 for Equation F-3 and n N-1 for F-4, respectively).

Tabular values of the "t" were obtained from the CRC Standard Mathematical Tables, 26th Edition (1981).

3.5.3 TLD Measurements TLD stations were categorized by distance into three groups:

0-2 miles, 2-5 miles, and >5 miles from the plant. A statistical analysis using the standard "t" test (described above) was performed comparing the averaga ep osure rates from 0-2 miles and 2-5 miles to the average exposure rate at

>5 miles. In short, the results of the analyces indicate that the average exposure rate at 0-2 miles and 2-5 miles to be statistically the same as at >5 miles. Table 3.2 summarizes the results of this analysis.

3.5.4 Gross Beta Activity on Ai Particulate Filters Additionally, the standarJ "t" test was used to compare average gross beta activ'.ty from each indicator station to the average gross beta .ctivity at the control station.

While the results from this test show average activity detected at indicator stations APG-1, APQ-1, and APC-1 to be statistically the same as the activity detected at the control station, activity at indicator station APP-1 was statistically lower than activity detected at the control station. Table 3.3 summarizes the result of this analysis.

3.5.5 Gross Beta Activity in Monthly Drinking Water Composites Finally, the standard "t" test was used to compare average gross beta activity from the two indicator stations to the average gross beta activity from the control station. The results from this test show average activity at indicator stations (DWG-2 and DWE-5) to be statistically the same as the average activity detected at the control station. Table 3.4 summarizes the result of this analysis.

3.6 Deviations from the REMP 3.6.1 Unavailable Samoles Deviations from the REMP associated with missing TLDs resulted from theft of the dosimeters and were beyond the control of Waterford 3. One TLD was discovered missing from location G-4 during dosimeter change-out at the end of the third quarter. Consequently, the missing TLD was replaced and the deviation recorded.

Three air samples were unavailable for analysis during the 1993 reporting period. At indicator location APP-1, a sample pump malfunctioned during the week of 2/16-2/24.

Upon discovery, the pump was replaced with a new pump and the calibration was tested. At locations APP-1 during the week of 3/23-3/30 and APE-30 during the week of 7/27-8/3, the technician failed to restart the pump when collecting the previous week's sample. All deviations were recorded and a new sample collection method was implemented which allows sample collection while the sample pump is running to prevent recurrence.

Additionally, seven air samples failed to meet the requirement for sample continuity. While two failures were due to a electrical malfunction at the sample locations, the other five continuity failures were the result of intentional shut downs to accomodate electrical enhancements of the sample equipment.

a Milk samples were not available during 1993 from the animal-

- owners at-station MKQ-1'since the cows are not currently producing milk for human consumption. With the absence of milk samples at these stations, broad leaf vegetation sampling was performed.

A list of deviations and associated' explanations is provided in Table 3.5.

3.6.2 Missed Lower Limits of Detection All lower limit of detection. requirements were met for 1993.

3.7 Annual Land lise Census in compliance with Waterford 3 ODCM, the annual land use census was conducted on October 19, 20, 21, and 22, 1993. The nearest residence, garden, and milking animal in each sector within a .five-mile radius of the plant were located by visual inspection.and verbal inquiry.

New residence locations and minor changes in garden locations were observed as recorded on Table 3.6. Additionally, large tracts of sugar cane tire still being cultivated near the plant and remain-classified as food products.

Several new milking animals were identified as a result of this census; however, none of the animals are currently producing milk for human consumption. This information was ascertained by verbal inquiry with the owners of the. animals. In addition, the owners at all locations i.tve agreed.to sell milk samples to Waterford 3 in the event of a radiological emergency to provide additional data for analysis of environmental impact.

4.0 CONCLUSION

S The radiological environmental data collected during 1993 are consistent with the data obtained during the previous five years of plant operation (1988-92), the first two years of the REMP prior to Waterford 3 initial criticality (1983-84), and the Pre-operational Environmental Radiological Surveillance (PERS) Program (1978-82). The only man-made radionuclides detected in the environmental samples analyzed during 1993 were cesium-137, iodine-131, and tritium.

Cesium-137 was detected in two shoreline soil samples. Studies in Louisiana indicate that cesium-137 is commonly found in soils and sediments as a result of fallout from nuclear weapons testing. In addition, the detected concentrations were consistent with pre-operational levels and the levels detected in the previous five years of operation. Further, the concentrations detected in both instances were lower than the required LLD and well below levels requiring notification.

Iodine-131 was detected in drinking / surface water at one indicator and one control location in June and November, respectively. In addition, iodine-131 was detected in milk at one indicator and one control location in November. The activity detected in all instances was at levels below the required LLD and well below reporting levels defined in the Waterford 3 ODCM. In addition, iodine-131 concentrations detected in 1993 are consistent with the levels indicated in the pre-operational program and the previous five years of operation. Further, levels detected had a high level of uncertainty associated with them and may be artifacts of counting statistics.

Tritlum activity detected in two groundwater samples was consistent with pre-operational levels and the concentrations recorded in the previous five years of operation. Additionally, the concentrations detected in the analyses are below both the required LLD and reporting levels defined in the Waterford 3 ODCM. Further, statistical errors associated with the indicated concentrations are higher than would be expected with true activity.

In conclusion, based on the evaluation of the REMP data collected during 1993 the operation of Waterford 3 had no discernable radiological impact on the environment.

l D-1.0 ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FOR GROSS BETA ACTIVITY D-1,1 Air Particulates After allowing for the radon-222 and radon-220 daughter

products to decay, the particulate filters were counted in a gas-flow proportional counter.

0-1.2 Water A known volume of water, usually 200 milliliters, was reduced by evaporation, transferred to a two inch diameter planchet, and evaporated to dryness. The planchet was counted for 100 minutes in an automatic alpha-beta counter.

D-2.0 ANALYSIS OF WATER SAMPLES FOR TRITIUM A known volume of water, 5 milliliters, was added to 15 milliliters of liquid scintillation solution in a 25 milliliter vial. The sample was counted for 500 minutes in a

. liquid scintillation counter.

D-3.0 ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FOR 10 DINE-131 D-3.1 Milk and Water Up to four liters of sample were mixed with a stable iodine carrier solution and eluded through an anion exchange resin .

column to remove iodine from the sample. The iodine was stripped from the resin with sodium hypochlorite solution, reduced with hydroxylamine hydrochloride, and extracted into carbon tetrachioride as free iodine. It was back-extracted as iodide into sodium bisulfite solution and precipitated as palladium iodide. The precipitate, palladium iodide, was weighed for chemical yield and mounted on a nylon planchet level beta analysis. The chemical yield was corrected by measuring the stable iodide content of the milk or water with a specific ion electrode.

D-3.2 Broad Leaf Veaetation Iodine analysis was performed using gamma spectroscopy. The time between sample receipt and analysis, the sample size and

,- count times were adjusted in order to attain the required lower limit of detection. Refer to Section E-4.2 for a description of gamma spectroscopy procedure.

4 D-4.0 GAMMA SPECTROSCOPY ANALYSIS Air particulate filters and iodine cartridges, water, milk, broadleaf vegetation, sediment, food products and fish samples are analyzed by gamma spectroscopy. Initially, the samples are prepared in containers, using the appropriate geometry for its sample type.

Secondly, the sample is counted in a shielded high purity germanium (HPGE) or germanium lithium (GeLi) detector coupled to a computer based data acquisition system that performs pulse height analysis.

The computer software program defines peaks by changes in the slope of the spectrum. Additionally, after comparing each specific peak energy with a library of peaks for isotopic identification the program performs the radioactivity calculation using the appropriate fractional gamma ray abundance, half life, detector efficiency, and net counts in the peak region.

D-5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL DOSIMETRY Thermoluminescent Dosimeters (T'.Ds) manufactured by Panasonic (model U0-814) were used for environmental dosimetry. Although the Panasonic TLDs contain one lithium borate and three calcium sulfate phosphor elements, only the calcium sulfate phosphor elements were used. For placement in field, two annealed dosimeters are placed inside a plastic bag and mounted in an aluminum frame. The dosimeters are checked monthly and exchanged for analysis each quarter using an automatic TLD reader manufactured by Panasonic (Model UD-710).
