RADIOACTIVE LIQUID RELEASZS Radioactive liquid releases via the circulating water discharge are summarized for total release and by individual source on a monthly basis in Table 1-1.

An isotopic breakdown of the total radioactive liquid release is presented in Table 1-2.

The total radioactive' liquid release excluding tritium for this re-porting period was 8.06E-01 Curies which included 5.69E-02 Curies of i

processed radioactive waste and primary coolant. system letdown,.

~

2.42E-01 Curies of Unit 1 steam generator blowdown, and 5.07E-01 Curies of Unit 2 steam. generator blowdown.

There was no detectable activity in retention pond' effluent (other than tritium).

The total tritium release for this reporting period was 336 Curies, which' included 331 Curies of pr w ed radioactive waste and primary coolant system,

'2.0 RADIOACTIVE AIRBORNE RELEASES Radioactive airborne releases during normal plant operation are reported by total release in Table 2-1, and sumarized by isotope in Table 2-2.

The release paths contributing to radioactive airborne releases during this reporting period were the auxiliary building vent stack, Unit 1 containment purge stack, Unit 2 containment purge stack, drumming area vent stack, gas stripper building ventilation exhaust, combined air ejector decay exhaust-and turbine building ventilation exhaust.

There were 10 gas decay tank releases during this report period.

,e 5.0 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING s

Radiological environmental monitoring conducted by Point Beach Nuclear Plant

' for the period from July 1,1981 through December 31, 1981, consisted of air filters, gama do,e, vegetation, lake water, well water, milk, shoreline silt, soil, algae, and lish samples collected and analyzed in accordance with Tech-nical Specification 15.4.10.

Fallout from the Chinese nuclear detonation of October 16, 1980 continued to appear in the airborne particulate and vegetation samples. All of the other measurements obtained during this period are well within the normal ranges.

As a result, the semiannual report-specified by Item 16.6.2.a of the Technical Specification is not applicable..

7.0 NON-RADIOACTIVE CHEMICAL RELEASES 7.1 Scheduled Chemical Waste Releases Scheduled chemical waste releases to the circulating water system for the period of July 1,1981 to December 31, 1981, included 3,114,530 gallons of neutralized clear water waste. The waste water contained 434 pounds of suspended solids and 172,560 pounds of dissolved solids.* When averaged over the reporting period, these discharges represented 46.17% of the Technical Specification limit for dissolved solids and 0.22% of the Technical Specification j

limit for suspended solids.**

l The concentration increases of chemical waste in the circulating water system during the period of chemical releases ranged from i

0.362 to 9.012 ppm dissolved solids and from 0.000 to 0.038 ppm suspended solids.**

Plant chemical records indicated that the following amounts of chemicals were released in the form of neutralized waste:

Sodium 56,406 pounds Sulfate-113,933 pounds

Chemical releases calculated are based upon neutralized tank analysis prior to discharge.

Based on calculations during times of actual discharges.

7.2 Miscellaneous Chemical Waste Releases Niscellaneous chemical waste releases to the circulating water system from the retention pond for the period of July 1, 1981 to December 31, 1981 included 10,200,000 gallons of clear water waste.

The waste water contained 833 pounds of suspended solids and 46,500 pounds of dissolved solids.* When averaged over the reporting period, these discharges were 0.61% of the Technical Specification limit for dissolved solids and 0.019% of the limit for suspended solids.

Retention pond analysis and plant chemical records indicate that the following chemicals were released in the form of clear water waste - from the retention pond.

Sodium 7,004.0 pounds Chloride 10,807.0 pounds Phosphate 72.3 pounds The balance of the dissolved solids were in the form of-soluble calcium and magnesium compounds resulting from the plant makeup _

water cold lime softening process.

Chemical release calculations'at based on retention pond analyses during the period July i 1981 to December 31, 1981.

f 8.0 CIRCULATING WATER SYSTEM OPERATIONS The circulating water system operation during this reporting period for periods of plant operation is described in Table 8-1.

9.0 LEAK TESTING OF RADIOACTIVE SOURCES During the reporting period, all applicable sealed radioactive sources -

were leak tested according to Technical Specification requirement 15.4.12.

Leak test results were all <0.003 1;C1.
