Subject:

Northern States Power, Prairie Island Liquid Effluent Release Abnormal Release during 4th Quarter 1992.

i i

l I

On Dec 6, 1992 two liquid waste tanks were placed on recirculation for release.

One of the tanks were sampled and processed for release prior to the second tank.

The release authorization papers and operations procedures became mixed up and the tank that was not yet sampled and authorized was released.

The mistake was realized later in the day when the sample and release authorization papers were being prepared for the i

second tank to be released.

Follow-up samples were taken and compared to projected and actual observed radiation monitor readings.

The two tanks were very similar in concentration and it was determined that the original pre-release dose calculatio.is were reasonably accurate.

The tank was released at a rate that was 0.22% of the maximum release rate limit based on MPCs as per the ODCM.

Operations and Effluent Release procedures have been altered to prevent re-occurance.

This event has been investigated and the corrective actions determined adequate.

Further information concerning this event can be found in Prairie Island LER for Unit #1 92-16.

4 NORTHERN STATES POWER COMPANY PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR GENERATING PLANT OFF-SITE RADIATION DOSE ASSESSMENT FOR January 1-December 31, 1992 4

An assessment of radiation dose due to release from the Prairie i

Island Nuclear Generating Plant during 1992 was performed in accordance with the Technical Specifications. Computed doses were i

well below the 40 CFR Part 190 Standards and 10 CFR Part 50 Appendix I Guidelines.

Off-site dose calculation formulas and meteorological data from the off-site Dose Calculation Manual were used in making this assessment. Source terms were obtained from the two Effluent and Waste Disposal Semiannual Reports prepared for NRC review during I

the year of 1992.

Off-site Doses from Gaseous Release Computed doses due to gaseous releases are reported in Table 1.

Critical receptor location and pathways for organ doses are reported in Table 2. Doses, both whole body and organ, are a small percentage of Appendix I Guidelines.

j off-site Doses from Licuid Release Computed doses due to liquid releases are reported in Table 1.

Receptor information is reported in Table 2. Both whole body dose l

and organ dose are a small percentage of Appendix I Guidelines.

Doses to Individuals Due to Activities Inside the Site Boundarv Occasionally sportsmen enter the Prairie Island site for recreational activities. These individuals are not expected to spend more than a few hours per year within the site boundary.

Commercial and recreational river traffic exists through this area.

For purposes of estimating the dose due to recreational and river water transportation activities within the site boundary, it is assumed that the limiting dose within the site boundary would be 4

received by an individual who spends a total of seven days per year on the river just off shore from the main plant buildings (ESE at 0.2 miles). Whole body and inhalation organ doses were calculated for this location and occupancy time. These doses were reported in Table 1.

Doses to Most Exposed Member of the General Public from Reactor Beleases and Other Uranium Fuel Cycle Sources i

There are no other uranium fuel facilities in the vicinity of the Prairie Island site. The only other artificial source of exposure to the general public in addition to the plant effluent releases is j

from direct radiation of the reactors. This direct radiation from pressurized water reactors has been shown to be negligible. An I

array of TLD monitoring stations around the perimeter of the site boundary has consistently indicated that plant operation in the l

past years has no effect on ambient gamma radiation.

Therefore, the most exposed member of the general public will not receive an annual radiation dose from reactor effluent releases and all other fuel cycle activities in excess of the sum of the liquid and gaseous whole body and organ doses reported in Table 1 for the site boundary and critical receptor, respectively. These doses are well below 40 CFR Part 190 standards of 25 mrem to the whole body, l

75 mrem to the thyroid, and 25 mrem to any other organ.

Radiation Environmental Monitorina Procram Samplina Deviations There were no milk or vegetable sampling deviations during this reporting period.
