j 2.4 Radioactive Effluents 2.4.1 Liquid Waste Effluents 2.4.1.1 Objective To define the limits of conditions for the controlled release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents to the environs to ensure that these releases are as low as practicable.

2.4.1.2 Specification A.

The concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents from all reactors at the site shall not exceed the values specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B. Table II, Column 2, for unrestricted areas.

If this limit cannot be met, radioactive effluents shall not be released.

.w B.

The equipment installed in a particular liquid radio-active waste stream shall be maintained and shall be operated to process radioactive liquid wastes prior to their discharge when the projected quarterly in-dividual dose due to liquid effluent releases from that particular waste stream would exceed 0.1 MREM to the whole body or 0.3 MREM to any organ.

C.

If the quarterly dose to an individual from a unit's liquid effluents exceeds 1.0 MREM to the whole body or 3.0 MREM to any organ, the licensee shall make an investigation to identify the causes of such releases, define and initiate a program of action to reduce such releases to design objective levels and report these actions to the Commission within 30 days from the end of the quarter during which the release occurred.

D.

The dose to an individual from a unit's liquid effluents shall not exceed 1.5 MREM to the whole body or 5 MREM to any organ during a calendar quarter.

E.

The dose to an individual from a unit's liquid effluent shall not' exceed 3.0 MREM to the whole body or 10 MREM to any organ in any 12 consecutive months.

F.

Except as specified in 2.4.1.3.C. during release of radioactive wastes, the effluent control radiation monitor shall be set to alarm and to initiate the automatic closure of each waste isolation valve prior to exceeding the limits specified in 2.4.1.2.A.

-G.

The maximum radioactivity that may be contained in any of the following tanks shall not exceed 10 Ci, excluding tritium and dissolved gases:

Unit 1 2.4-1

. Amendment No. 84 Unit 2 Amendment No. 77

F.

The radioactivity in the steam generator blowdown and condensate polishing evaporator distillate from Unit 2 shall be monitored and recorded. Whenever the blowdown or distillate monitors are.inoper,-

able, any unmonitored blowdown flow shall be diver'ted to the waste management system or the condensate polishing waste neutralizing sumps respectively, and the direct release to the environment te rminated.

G.

Plant records shall be maintained of the radioactive concentration and volume before dilution of liquid waste intended for discharge, and the average dilution flow and length of time over which each discharge occurred.

H.

Failure to comply with Sections 2.4.1.3.A through 2.4.1.3.G re-quires prompt reporting as specified in Section 5.6.2.a.(1).

t I.

Dose calculations to ensure compliance with Specifications 2.4.1.2.B,l through 2.4.1.2.E will be performed using measured curie releases and the NRC computer code LADTAP.* These calculations shall be performed within 30 days from the end of each quarter, unless more than 1 curie (excluding tritium and dissolved gases) of activity ~

was released from a ' articular unit during a month, in which case they p

will be performed within 10 days from the end of the month for that unit.

Bases The release of radioactive materials in liquid waste to unrestricted areas shall not exceed the concentration limits specified in 10CFR Part 20 and should be as low as practicable in accordance with the require-ments of 10CFR Part 50.36a. To ensure that the releases of radioactive material above background to unrestricted areas will be as low as prac-ticable as defined in Appendix I to 10CFE Part 50, the following design I

objective has been applied:

A.

The annual dose above background to the total body or any organ of an individual from a reactor shall'not exceed 3 mrem or 10 mrem, respectively in an unrestricted area.

These specifications, while providing reasonable assurance that the resulting annual exposure to the total body or any organ of an individual in an unrestricted area is as low as practicable, permit the flexibility of operation, compatible with considerations of health and safety, to assure that the public is provided a dependable source of power under unusual operating conditions which may temporarily result in releases higher than the design objective levels but still within the concentra-tion limits specified in 10CFR Part 20.

It is expected that by using this operational flexibility under unusual operation conditions, and exertin,g every effort to keep levels of radioactive material in liquid wastes as low as practicable, the annual releases will not exceed a small fraction of the concentration, limits specified in 10CFR Part 20.

  • The LADTAP code shall be used in accordance with NNECO procedure RAB-4-3, Rev..O, dated November 1979.

Unit 1 2.4-3 Amendment No. 84 Unit 2 Amendment No. 77

?.

The design objectives have been developed based on operating experience taking into account a combination of variables including defective fuel,

~

primary system leakage, and the performance of the various waste trest-ment systems, and are consistent with Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.

Specification 2.4.1.2.A requires the licensee to limit the concentration of radioactive materials in liquid wastes from the site to levels speci-fied in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, for unrestricted areas. This specification provides assurance that no member of the general public will be exposed to liquid containing radioactive materials in excess of limits considered permissible under the Commission's Rules and Regulations.

Specifications 2.4.1.2.D and 2.4.1.2.E establish the upper limits for the dose due to the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents.

I The intent of these Specifications is to permit the' licensee the flexi-bility of operation to assure that the public is provided a dependable source of power under unusual operating conditions which may temporarily result in releases higher than the levels normally achievable when the plant and the liquid waste treatment systems are functioning as designed.

Releases of up to these limits will result in concentrations of radio-active material in liquid wastes at small percentages of the limits specified in 10 CFR Part 20.

Specification 2.4.1.2.F requires that suitable equipment to control and monitor the releases.of radioactive materials in liquid wastes are operating during any period these releases are taking place consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, Design Criterion 64.

Specification 2.4.1.2.B requires that the licensee maintain and operate the equipment installed in the liquid waste systems to reduce the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents to as low as practicable consistent with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a. Normal use and maintenance of installed equipment in the liquid waste system provides reasonable assurance that the quantity released will not exceed the design objective. In order to keep releases of radioactive materials as low as practicable, the specification requires, as a minimum, operation of equipment in a particular waste stream whenever it appears that the projected doses due to releases from that particular waste stream will exceed 10% of the design objectives. This specification does not apoly to any waste stream for which a waste treatment system is not required to meet tin Appendix I criterin (l.o. Ifn l t No. ? *;t cam Generat or Blowdown).

Specifration 2.4.1.2.0 limits the amount of radioactive material that could be inadvertently released to the environment to an amount that will not exceed the Technical Specification limit.

In addition to these limiting conditions for operation, the reporting requirements of Specification 2.4.1.2.C delineate that the licensee Unit 1 2.4-4 Amendment No. 84 Unit 2 Amendment No. 77

1 shall identify the cause whenever the dose due to release of radioactive materials in liquid wastes exceeds 1.0 mrem to the whole body or 3.0 mrem to any organ during any calendar quarter and describe the proposed program of action to reduce such releases to design objective levels on a timely basis. This report must be filed within 30 days following the calendar quarter in which the release occurred.

The monitoring requirements given under Specification 2.4.1.3 provide assurance that radioactive materials in liquid wastes are properly controlled and monitored in conformance with the requirements of Design Criteria 60 and 64. These requirements provide the data for the licensee and the Commission to evaluate the plant's performance relative to radioactive liquid wastes released to the environment. Reports on the quanities of radioactive materials released in liquid wast ~es are fur-nished to the Commission according to Section 5.6.1 of these Technical Specifications in conformance with Regulatory Guide 1~.21:

On the basis of such reports and any additional information the Commisssion may obtain from the licensee or others, the Commission may, from time to time, require the licensee to take such action as the Commission deems appropriate.

Monitoring Requir ements 2.4.1.3.A through E and G and H. will apply to the Condensate Polishing Weste Neutralizing Sump djscharges only when the steam generator gross activity exceeds 1 x 10 pCi/ml. Discharges from these sumps will be terminated when the Steam Generator or the S.J.A.E. Radiation Monitors alarm, until Monitoring Requirements 2.4.1.3.A through E and G and H are met.

l Monitoring Requirements 2.4.1.3.E through H will apply to the condensate polishing evaporator distillat9 discharges only when the Steam Generator gross activity exceeds 1 x 10 pCi/ml. If the monitoring requirements of 2.4.1.3.E through H are not met, discharges from this pathway will be terminated when the Steam Generator Blowdown or the S.J.A.E.' Radiation Monitors alarm.

The points of release to the environment to be monitored in Section 2.4.1 include all the monitored release points as provided for in Table 2.4-3.

Monitoring Requirement 2.4.1.3.I ensures that the determination of dose based on measured curie releases is consistent with NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1.

Table 2.4-1 (, Continued')

(1)

A co=posite sanple is one in which the quantity of liquid sa= pled is proportional to the quantity of liquid vaste, discharge.d.

- ~_

(2)

For certain mixture: of ga.=na ccittprs, it u.ay not be possibic to neasure radionuclides in concentrations near their sensitivity li=its when other nuclides are 1 resent in the sa=ple in much greater meentrations. Undet 5

these circunstances, it vill be more appropriate tu calculate the concent of such radionuclides using measured ratios with those radionuclides whic are routinely. identified and s>easured.

(3)

W.e detectability linits for activity analysis are based on ihe technical feasibility and on the potential significance in the environ =ent of the quantities released. For sone nuclides, l'over detection li=1ts say,be readily achievcble and when nuclides are measured below the stated 2 4'ts they shall also be reported.

(4)

Deleted (5)

To be representative of the average quantities and concentrations of rad:

active materials in liquid effluents, samples should be collected in pro-portion to the rate of flov of the effluent. stream., Prior to analyses..

sanples' taken for the ce=posite should be,ther,oughly mixed in order for C ce=posite sa=ple to be representative of the average effluent releace.

~

(6)

These analyses are required when the s,tein generator gross activity (sa.: pled and analyzed 3 ti=es per week as per the Safety Technical Specifications Table 4.7-2) exceeds 1 I.10 7 p Ci/ml.

-(7)

Sa=pling and analysis of the Condensate Polishing Vaste Neutralizing Su=ps.and the Condensate Polishing *Evapo'rator Distillate, for the activity analysis shown in* Table 2.4.1, are recuired only when the steam generator gross activity exceeds 1 x 10 7 pC1/ml.
