1.0 DEFINITIONS The succeeding frequently used terms are explicitly defined so that a uniform interpretation of the specifications may be achieved.

A. _ Thermal Parameters

1. Critical Power Ratio (CPR) - The critical power ratio is the ratio of that assembly power which causes some point in the assembly to experience transition boiling to the assembly power at the reactor condition of interest as calculated by application of the GEXL correlation. (Reference NEDO-10958) l l 2. Maximum Fraction of Limiting Power Density - The Maximum Fraction of Limiting Power Density (MFLPD) is the highest value existing in the core of the Fraction of Limiting Power Density (FLPD).

3. Minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR) - The minimum critical power ratio corresponding to the most limiting fuel assembly in the core.

4. Fraction of Limiting Power Density - The ratio of the linear heat generation rate (LHGR) existing at a given location to the design LHGR for that bundle type. Design LHCR's are 18.5 KW/ft for 7x7 bundles and 13.4 KW/ft for 8x8 bundles.

5. Transition Boiling - Transition boiling means the boiling regime between nucleate and film boiling. Transition boiling is the regime in which both nucleate and film boiling occur intermittently with neither type being completely stable.

B. Alteration of the Reactor Core - The act of moving any component in the region above the core support plate, below the upper grid and within the shroud. Normal control rod movement with the control rod drive hydraulic system is not defined as a core alteration. Normal movement of in-core instrumentation is not defined as a core alteration.

C. Cold Condition - Reactor coolant temperature equal to or less than 212 F.

D. Design Power - Design power means a steady-state power level of 2486 thermal megawatts. This is 104.4% of Rated Power (105% of rated steam flow) and the power to which the safety analysis applies.

E. Engineered Safeguard - An engineered safeguard is a safety system the actions of which are essential to a safety action required to maintain the consequences of ostulated accidents within acceptable limits.

E.A Dose Equivalent I-131 - The DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 shall be that concentration of I-131 (microcurie / gram)whichalonewouldproducethesamethyroiddoseas)i the quantity and isotopic mixture of I-131, I-132, I-133, I-134, and I-135 actually present. They thyroid dose conversion factors used for this calculation shall be those listed in Regulatory Guide 1.109.

E.B Exhaust Ventilation Treatment System - An EXHAUST VENTILATION TREATMENT SYSTEM I (EVTS) is a system intended to remove radioiodine or radioactive material in particulate form from gaseous effluent by passing exhaust ventilation air through charcoal absorbers and/or HEPA filters before exhausting the air to the environment. An EVTS is not intended to affect noble gas in gaseous l effluent. Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) gaseous treatment systems are not l considered to be EVTS. The Standby Gas Treatment System is an ESF and not an EVTS. EVTS are specifically identified in ODAM Figure 3-1.

%- N __

j

F. Functional Test - A functional test is the manual operation or initiation of a system, subsystem or component to verify that it functions within design toler-ances (e.g. the manual start of a core spray pump to verify that it runs and that it pumps the required volume of water).

f.A Gaseous Radwaste Treatment System - A GASEOUS RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM is any system designed and installed to reduce radioactive gaseous effluents by col-lecting primary coolant system offgases from the primary system and providing

, for delay or holdup for the purpose of reducing the total radioactivity prior to release to the environment.

G. Hot Standby Condition - Hot standby condition means operation with coolant tem-perature greater than 2120F, system pressure less than 1000 psig, and the mode switch in "Startup/ Hot Standby".

H. Immediate - Immediate means that the required action will be initiated as soon as practicable considering the safe operation of the unit and the importance of the required action.

I. Instrumentation

1. Instrument Functional Test - Analog instrument functional test means the injection of a simulated signal into the instrument as close to the sen-sor as practical to verify the proper instrument channel response, alarm and/or initiating action. Bistable channels - the injection of a simu-lated signal into the sensor the verify OPERABILITY including alarm and/

or trip functions.

2. Instrument Calibration - An instrument calibration means the adjustment, as necessary, of an instrument signal output so that it corresponds, within acceptable range, and accuracy, to a known value(s) of the parameter which the instrument monitors. Calibration shall encompass the entire instru-ment including sensor, alarm /or trip functions and shall include the func-tional test. The calibration may be performed by any series of sequential, overlapping or total channel steps such that the entire channel is cali-brated.

3. Instrument Channel - An instrument channel means an arrangement of a sen-sor and auxiliary equipment required to generate and transmit a signal relatcd to the plant parameter monitored by that instrument channel.

I

4. Instrument Check - An instrument check is the qualitative determination of acceptable operability by observation of instrument behavior during oper-ation. This determination shall include, where possible, comparison of the instrument with other independent instruments measuring the same para-meter.

l 5. Logic System Functional Test - A logic system functional test means a test of relays and contacts of a logic circuit from sensor to activated device to ensure components are operable per design intent. Where practicable, action will go to completion; i.e., pumps will be started and valves operated.

6. Protective Action - An action initiated by the protection system when a limiting safety system setting is reached. A protective action can be at a channel or system level.

7. Protection Function - A system protective action which results from the protective action of the channels monitoring a particular plant condition.

8. Simulated Automatic Actuation - Simulated automatic actuation means apply-l ing a simulated signal to the sensor to actuate the circuit in question.

l 8.A Source Check - A SOURCE CHECK shall be the qualitative assessment of chan-nel response when the channel sensor is exposed to a radioactive source.

9. Trip System - A trip system means an arrangement of instrument channel trip signals and auxiliary equipment required to initiate action to accomplish a I protective function. A trip system may require one or more instrument channel trip signals related to one or more plant parameters in order to initiate trip system action. Initiation of protective action may require the tripping of a single trip system or the coincident tripping of two trip systems.

J. Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCO) - The limiting conditions for operation specify the minimum acceptable levels of system performances necessary to assure safe startup and operation of the facility. When these conditions are met, the plant can be operated safely and abnormal situations can be safely controlled.

Limiting Conditions for Operation (LCO) shall be applicable during the opera-tional conditions specified for each specification.

Adherence to the requirements of the LCO within the specified time interval shall constitute compliance with the specification. In the event the LCO is restored prior to expiration of the specified time interval, completion of the LCO action is not required.

In the event an LCO cannot be satisfied because of circumstances in excess of those addressed in the specification, the facility shall be placed in HOT SHUT-DOWN within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days 0.00167 hours 9.920635e-6 weeks 2.283e-6 months and in COLD SHUTDOWN within the following 30 hours3.472222e-4 days 0.00833 hours 4.960317e-5 weeks 1.1415e-5 months unless corrective measures are completed that permit operation under the LCO for the specified time interval as measured from initial discovery. Exception to these requirements shall be stated in the individual specifications.

Entry into an operational condition shall not be made unless the conditions of the LCO are met without reliance on the actions specified in the LCO unless otherwise excepted. This provision shall not prevent passage through opera-tional conditions required to comply with the specified actions of an LCO.

K. Limiting Safety System Setting (LSSS) - The limiting safety system settings are settings on instrumentation which initiate the automatic protective action at a level such that the safety limits will not be exceeded. The region between the safety limit and these settings represent a margin with normal operation lying I below these settings. The margin has been established so that with proper operation of the instrumentation the safety limits will never be exceeded.

K.A L. Mode - The reactor mode is established by the mode selector-switch. The modas include refuel, run, shutdown and startup/ hot standby which are defined as follows:

1. Refuel Mode - The reactor is in the refuel mode when the mode switch is in the refuel mode position. When the mode switch is in the refuel position, the refueling interlocks are in service.

2. Run Mode - In this mode the reactor system pressure is at or above 825 psig and the reactor protection system is energized with APRM protection (exclud-ing the 15% high flux trip) and RSM interlocks in service.

3. Shutdown Mode - The reactor is in the shutdown mode when the reactor mode switch is in the shutdown mode position.

4 Startup/ Hot Standby - In this mode the reactor protection scram trips initiated by the main steam line isolation valve closure are bypassed when reactor pressure is less than 1000 psig, the low pressure main steam line isolation valve closure trip is bypassed, the reactor protection system is energized with APRM (15% SCRAM) and IRM neutron monitoring system trips and control rod withdrawal interlocks in service.

1.A Normal Ventilation - Normal ventilation is the controlled process of discharging cnd replacing air from/to a confinement to maintain temperature, humidity, or ether conditions necessary for personnel safety and entry. The contents of the atmosphere being discharged from the confinement will have been established l prior to establishing normal ventilation following a purging / venting operation.

L.E Offsite Dose Assessment Manual (ODAM) - An 0FFSITE DOSE ASSESSMENT MANUAL (ODAM) shall be a manual containing the methodology and parameters to be used in the calculation of offsite doses due to radioactive gaseous and liquid effluents and in the calculation of gaseous and liquid effluent monitcring instrumentation alarm / trip setpoints.

M. Operable - A system or component shall be considered operable when it is capable of performing its intended function in its required manner.

N. Operating - Operating means that a system or component is performing its intended functions in its required manner.

O. Operating Cycle - Interval between the end of one refueling outage and the end of the next subsequent refueling outage.

l P. Primary Containment Integrity - Primary containment integrity means that the drywell and pressure suppression chamber are intact and all or the following conditions are satisfied:

i

1. All manual containment isolation valves on lines connected to the reactor coolant system or containment which are not required to be open during accident conditions are closed.

2. At least one door in each airlock is closed and sealed.

I I

3. All automatic containment isolation valvas are operable or deactivated in the isolated position.

4 All blind flanges and manways are closed.

P.A Process Control Program - The Proceas Control Program outlines the solidification of radioactive waste from liquid systems. It does not substitute for station operating procedures, but provides a general description of equipment, controls, and practices to be considered during waste solidification to assure solid wastes.

P.B Purge - Purging - Purge or Purging is the controlled process of discharging air or gas from a confinement to establish temperature, pressure, humidity, concentra-tion or other operating condition, in such a manner that replacement air or gas is required to purify the confinement.

P.C Radiological Environmental Monitoring Manual (REMM) - This manual describes the tal monitoring program for CNS. -

Q. Rated Power - Rated power refers to operation at a reactor power of 2381 mega-watts thermal. This is also termed 100% power and is the maximum power level authorized by the operating license. Rated steam flow, rated coolant flow, rated neutron flux, and rated nuclear system pressure refer to the values of these parameters when the reactor is at rated power. Design power, the power to which the safety analysis applies, is 105% of rated power, which corresponds to 2500 megawatts thermal.

P. Peactor Power Operation - Reactor power operation is any operation with the mode switch in the "Startup/ Hot Standby" or "Run" position with the reactor critical and above 1% rated power.

S. Reactor Vessel Pressure - Unless otherwise indicated, reactor vessel pressures listed in the Technical Specifications are those measured by the reactor vessel steam space detectors.

T. Refueling Outage - Refueling Outage is the period of time between the shutdown of the unit prior to a refueling and the startup of the plant after that refueling.

U. Safety Limits - The safety limits are limits within which the reasonable main-tenance of the fuel cladding integrity and the reactor coolant system integrity are assured. Violation of such a limit is cause for unit shutdown and review by

the Nuclear Regulatory Commission before resumption of unit operation. Operation beyond such a limit may not in itself result in serious consequences but it indicates an operational deficiency subject to regulatory review.

V. Secondary Containment Integrity - Secondary containment integrity means that the reactor building is intact and the following conditions are met:

1. At least one door in each access opening is closed.

2. The standby gas treatment system is operable.

3. All automatic ventilation system isolation valves are operable or secured in the isolated position.

2. A total maximum combined interval time for any 3 consecutive surveillance intervals not to exceed 3.25 times the specified interval.

Performance of a Surveillance Requirement within the specified time interval shall constitute compliance with operability requirements for an LCO unless otherwise rcquired by the specification.

Y. Surveillance Interval - The surveillance interval is the calendar time between surveillance tests, checks, calibrations and examinations to be performed upon nn instrument or component when it is required to be operable. These tests may be waived when the instrument, component or system is not required to be oper-able, but the instrument, component or system shall be tested prior to being declared operable or as practicable following its return to service.

Z.A Venting - Venting is the controlled process of discharging air or gas from a confinement to establish temperature, pressure, humidity, concentration or other operating condition, in such a manner that replacement air or gas is not pro-vided or required during venting. Vent, used in system names, does not imply a venting process.

NOTES FOR TABLES 4.2.A THROUGH 4.2.F

1. Initially once every month until exposure (M as defined on Figure 4.1.1) is 2.0 X 10 ; thereafter, according to Figure 4.1.1 (after NRC' approval). The compilation of instrument failure rate data may include data obtained from other boiling water reactors for which the same design instrument operates in an environment similar to that of CNS.

2. Functional tests shall be performed before each startup with a required frequency not to exceed once per week.

3. This instrumentation is excepted from the functional test definition. The functional test will consist of applying simulated inputs. Local alarm lights representing upscale and downscale trips will be verified but no rod block will be produced at this time. The inoperative trip will be initiated to produce a rod block (SRM and IRM inoperative also bypassed with the mode switch in RUN). The functions that cannot be verified to produce a rod block directly will be verified during the operating cycle.

4. Simulated automatic actuation shall be performed once each operating cycle.

Where possible, all logic system functional tests will be performed using the test jacks.

5. Reactor low water level, high drywell pressure and high radiation main steam line tunnel are not included on Table 4.2.A since they are tested on Table 4.1.2.

6. The logic system functional tests shall include an actuation of time delay relays and timers necessary for proper functioning of the trip systems.

7. These units are tested as part of the Core Spray System tests.

d. The flew bias comparator will be tested by putting one flow unit in " Test" (producing 1/2 scram) and adjusting the test input to obtain comparator rod block. The flow bias upscale will be verified by observing a local upscale trip light during operation and verifying that it will produce a rod block during the operating cycle.

9. Performed during operating cycle. Portions of the logic is checked more j frequently during functional tests of the functions that produce a rod block.

10. The detector will be inserted during each operating cycle and the proper amount of travel into the core verified.

11. Surveillance requirements for this system are defined in Table 4.21. A.1.

. 3.2 BASES (Cont'd)

Trip settings of <100 mr/hr for the monitors in the ventilation exhaust ducts are based upon initiating normal ventilation isolation and standby ges treat-ment system operation so that none of the activity released during the re-fueling accident leaves the Reactor Building via the normal ventilation path but rather all the activity is processed by the standby gas treatment system.

Flow transmitters are used to record the flow of liquid from the drywell sumps. An air sampling system is also provided to detect leakage inside the primary containment.

For each parameter monitored, as listed in Table 3.2.F there are two (2) channels of instrumentation. By comparing readings between the two (2) channels, a near continuous surveillance of instrument performance is available.

Any deviation in readings will initiate an early recalibration, there-by maintaining the quality of the instrument readings.

The recirculation pump trip has been added as a reans of limiting the con-sequences of the unlikely occurrence of a failure to scram during an antici-pated transient. The response of the plant to this postulated event falls uithin the envelope of study events given in General Electric Company Topica! P.eport, NEDO-10349, dated March, 1971.

The liquid radwaste monitor assures that all liquid discharged to the discharge canal does not exceed the limits of Specification 3.21.B of Environmental Technical Specifications. Upon sensing a high discharge level, an isolation l

signal is generated which closes of radwaste discharge valve. The set point is adjustable to compensate for variable isotopic discharges and dilution flew rates.

The main control room ventilation isolation is provided by a detector monitoring the intake of the control room ventilation system. Automatic isolation of the normal supply and exhaust and the activation of the emergency filter system is provided by the radiation detector trip function at the predetermined trip level.

The mechanical vacuum pump isolation prevents the exhausting of radioactive gas thru the 1 minute holdup line upon receipt of a main steam line high radiation signal.

The operability of the reactor water level instrumentation in Tables 3/4.2.F ensures that sufficient information is available to monitor and assess accident situations.

Where:

LLD is the "a priori" lower limit of detection as defined above (as picoeurie, /

per unit mass or volume),

s is the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the b

counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (as counts per minute),

E is the counting efficiency (as counts per transformation),

V is the sample size (in units of mass or volume),

2.22 is the number of transformations per minute per picocurie, Y is the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable),

A is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide, an'd 5 '

At is the elapsed time between midpoint of sample collection and time of counting (for plant effluents, not environmental samples).

The value of s used in the calculation of the LLD for a detection system b

shall be based on the actual observed variance of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of the blank samples (as appropriate) rather

\ than on an unverified theoretically predicted variance. In calculating

\ the LLD for a radionuclide determined by gamma-ray spectrometry, the back-ground shall include the typical contributions of other radionuclides normally h present in the samples. Typical values of E, V, Y, and at shall be used in the calculation.

(2) For ce n adionuclides with low gamma yield or low energies, or for certain radio-nuclide mixtures, it may not be possible to measure radionuclides in concentrations near the LLD. Under these circumstances, the LLD may be ig reased inversely propor-tionally to the magnitude of the gamma yield (i.e., 5 x 10 /I, where I is the photon abundance expressed as a decimal fraction), but in no case shall the LLD, as calcu-lated in this manner for a specific radionuclide, be greater than 10% of the MFC value specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2.

(3) A-composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is proportional to ,

the quantity of liquid waste discharged and in which the method of saripling employed l results in a specimen which is representative of the liquids released.

(4) To be representative of the quantities and concentrations of radioactive materials in liquid effluents, samples shall be collected in proportion to the rate of flow of the effluent stream. Prior to analyses, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite sample to be representative of the efflu-ent release.

(5) A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for analyses, each batch shall be isolated and then thoroughly mixed.

(6) A grab sample of plant service water effluent shall be analyzed at least once each week in accordance with Table Itgm 2.A. In the event the radioactivity concentra-tion in a sample exceeds 3 x 10 pCi/ml, or in the event the plant service water effluengmonitorindicatesthepresenceofanactivityconcentrationgreaterthan 3 x 10 pCi/ml, sampling and analysis according to Table Item 2.B. shall commence and shall be performed as long as the condition persists.(~{7 _ _',As (7) The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification will apply are exclu-sively the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141, and Ce-144. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to j

be detected and reported. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the above nuclides, shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which are

below the LLD for the analyses should not be reported as being present at the LLD level. When unusual circumstances result in LLD's higher than required, the reasons shall be documented in the semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

(8) If an isotopic analysis is unavailable, batch releases may be made for up to 14 d ys 9

provided the gross beta / gamma concentration to the unrestricted area is <,1 x 10 uc/ml and the sample is analyzed when the instrumentation is once again available.

(2) For certain radionuclides with low gamma yield or ow energies, or for certain radionuclide mixtures, it may not be possible to measure radionuclides in con-centrations near the LLD. Under these circumstances, the LLD may be increaged inversely proportionally to the magnitude of the gamma yield (i.e., 1 x 10 /I, where I is the photon abundance expressed as a decimal fraction), but in no case shall the LLD, as calculated in this manner for a specific radionuclide, be greater than 10% of the MFC value specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II,

! Column 1.

(3) Analyses shall also be performed following an increase as indicated by the gaseous release monitor of greater than 50% in the steady state release, after factoring out increases due to power changes or other operational occurrences, which could alter the mixture of radionuclides.

, (4) Analyses shall also be performed following an increase as indicated by the gaseous release monitor of greater than 50% in the steady state release, after factoring out increases due to power changes or other operational occurrences, which could alter the mixture of radionuclides. When samples collected for 24

_ hours are analyzed, the corresponding LLD's may be increased by a factor of 10.

3 (5) ne ratio of the sample flow rate to the sampled stream flow rate shall be known-for the time period covered by each dose or dose rate calculation made in accor-dance with Specifications 3.21.C.1, 3.21.C.2 and 3.21.C.3.

(6) The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification will apply are exclusively the following radionuclides: Kr-87, Kr-88, Xe-133, Xe-133m, Xe-135, and Xe-138 for gaseous emissions and Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141, and Ce-144 for particulate emissions. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be detected and reported. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the above nuclides, shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses should not be reported as bein, present at the LLD level for that nuclide. When unusual circuestance cause LLD's higher than required M the reasons shall be documented in the semi-annual effluent fepsrt.

(7) A quarterly conposite particulate sample shall include particulate samples collected during the quarter.

(8) The noble gas continuous monitor shall be calibrated using laboratory analysis of the grab samples from A and B on Table 4.21.C.1 or using reference sources.

e r 9) A H-3 grab sample will also be taken when the reactor vessel head is removed.

This sample will be taken at the ERP or Reactor Building vent whichever will be cedure.

Prompt detection of firas will reduce the potential for damage to safety related ;

eq61pment 'and is an integral element in the overall facility fire protection program, j -

In the event that a portion of the fire detection instrumentation is in-ope.rab ic , the establishment of frequent fire pa'crols in the affected areas is requi, red to provide detection capability until the inoperable instrumentation,is returned to service. .

i c 3.15-3.18/4.15-4.18 FIRE SUPPRESSIO" SYSTEMS .

THU OPERABILITY of the fire suppression systems ensures that adequate fire suppression capability is available to confine and extinguish fires occurring in j any portion of the facility where safety related espiipment is located. The fire

suppression system consists of the water system, spray and/or sprinklers CO,~

i and fire hose stations. The collective capability of the fire suppression j systems is adiquate to minimize potential damaga to safety related equipment and is a major element in the facility fire protection program.

~

In the event that portions of the fire suppression systems are inoperabic, alternate backup fire fighting equipment is required to be made available in the affected areas until the affected equipment can be restored to service.

In the event the fire suppression water system becomes inoperable, in-mediate cerrective measures must be taken since this sytem provides the major i

fire suppression capability of the plant. The requirement for twenty-four hour report to the Commission provides for prompt evaluation of the acceptability of

.the corrective measures to provide adequate fire suppression capability for the

" continued protection of th'e nuclear plant.

3.19/4.19 FIRE BARRIER PENEIRATION SEALS The functional integrity of the fire barrier penetration seals ensures that fires will be confined or adequately retarded from. spreading to adjacent portions of the facility. This design feature minimizes the possibility of a single fire rapidly involving several areas of the facility prior to detection and extinguish-a ment. The fire barrier penetration seals are a passive element in the facility g fire protection program and are subject to periodic inspections.

During~ periods of time when the seals are not functional, a continuous fire watch is required to be maintained in the vicinity o{ the affected seal until the seal is restored to functional status.

This limitation provides j additional assuran m that the 1cvels of radioactive materials in bodies of water outside the site will not result in exposures within (1) the Section IV.A guides on technical specifications in Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for an individual and (2) the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.106(e) to the population.

Since service water is not a normal or expected source of significanc radioactive release, routine sampling and gonitoring for radioactivity is precautionary. An activity con-centration of 3 x 10 pCi/ml in serv' ice water effluent is diluted in the discharge canal to about 1.5*. of the 10 CFR 20 Appendix B Table 2 Column 2 concentration with only one circulating water pump operating. During normal Station operation the dilution would be even greater. By monitoring service water effluent continuously for radio-activity and by confirmatory sampling weekly, reasonable assurance that its activity concentration can be kept to a small fraction of the 10 CFR Part 20.106 limit and l within the Specification 3.21.B.2.a limit is provided.

i A By monitoring service water continuously and liquid radwaste continuously during dis-4 charge with the monitor set to alarm or trip before the limit specified in 10 CFR 20.106 is exceeded, reasonable assurance of compliance with Specification 3.21.B.1.2 is provided.

I Verification that radioactivity in liquid effluent averaged only a small fraction of the i i concentration limit is provided by calculations demonstrating compliance with Specifica-

These specifications state liniting conditions for operation (LCO) to keep levels of radioactive materials in LWR effluents as low as is reasonably achievable. Conpliance with these specifications will also keep average releases of radioactive material in effluents at small per-centages of the limits specified in 10 CFR Part 20.106. Surveillance Requirements provide for the measurement of releases and calculation of doses to verify compliance with the Specifications. Action statements in these Specifications implement the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36'(c)(2) and 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I, Section IV.A in the event an LCO is not met.

10 CFR Part Sbcontainstwodistinctlyseparatestatementsofrequirementspertainingto effluents from nuclear power reactors. The first concerns a description of equipment to maintain control over radioactive materials in effluents, determination of design objectives, and means to be enployed to keep radioactivity in effluents ALAP.A. This requirement is stated in Part 50. Section 34a and Appendix I,Section II. Appendix I, Secticn III stipulates that conformance with the guidance on design objectives be denonstrated by calculations (since deronstration is expected to be prospective). The other is a requirement for developing limiting conditions for operation in technical specifications. It is stated in 10 CFR Part 50. Section 36a and Appendix I,Section IV.

Both the intent of the Commission and the requirement are clearly stated in the Opinion of the Comuission;y relevant paragraphs from that document follow:

Section 50.36a(b) of 10 CFR Part 50 provides that licensees shall be guided by certain considerations in establishing and implementing operating procedures speci-fled in technical specifications which take into account the need for operating flexibility and at the same time ensure that the licensee will exert his best efforts to keep levels of radioactive materials in effluents as low as practicable.

The Appendix I that we adopt provides more specific guidance to licensees in this respect.

A. The Rule Section IV of Appendix I specifies action levels for the licensee. If, for any individual light water cooled nuclear power reactor, the quantity of radioactive material actually released in effluents to unrestricted areas during any calendar quarter is such as to cause radiation exposure, calculated on the sane basis as the design objective exposure, which would exceed one-half the annual design objective exposure, the licensee shall make an investigation to identify the causes of these high release rates, define and initiate a program of action to correct the situation, and report these actions to the Commission within 30 days of the end of the calendar quarter.

The conclusion of the NRC Staff in the Appendix I Rulemaking Hearing agrees with that of the Commission. The Staff recommended, "...that the limiting conditions for oper-ation described in Appendix I,Section IV be applicable upon publication to technical specifications included in any license authorizing operation of a light water cooled nuclear power reactor..." (p. 73). (Cont'd)

The action to be taken by a licensee in the event a limiting condition is c3cceded, is stated in Appendix I,Section IV.A and in the opinion of the Commission. Techni-cal Specifications .'.21.B.2, 4.21.B.2, 3.21.C.2, 4.21.C.2, 3.21.C.3 and 4.21.C.3 for Cooper Station conform to this requirement.

Guidance for developing technical specifications for surveillance and monitoring is included in Appendix 1 Section IV.B.

Although "it is expected that the annual releases of radioactive material in effluents fron lightwatercooled nuclear power reactors can generally be maintained within the levels set forth as numerical guides for design objectives in Section II" (Appendix 1 SectionI{),norecommendationwasmadebyeitbertheStaffinitsConcluding Statenent or by the Comnission in its Opinion' that design objective values should appear as technical specification limits. The Opinion of the Commission and the statement of Appendix I are clear. Liniting conditions of operation (LCO) related to the quantity of radioactive material in effluents released to an unrestricted area stated in technical specifications shall conform to Appendix I,Section IV.A.

Licensee action in the event an LCO is exceeded should t 1 accord with Section IV.A.

Finally, surveillance and monitoring of effluents and the environment should conform to Sectien IV.B.

'.:ith the inplenentation of Specification 3.21.B.2 and 4.21.B.2 there is reasonable assurance that Station operation will not cause a radionuclide concentration in public drinking water taken from the River that exceeds the standard for anthropogenic radicactivity in community drinking water. The equntions in the ODAM for calculating drues due to measured releases of radioactive material in liquid effluent will be consistent with the methodology in Regulatory Guides 1.109 and 1.113. The assessnent

( c: personal doses will examine potential exposure pathways including consumption of fish and water taken from the River downstrean of the discharge canal.

Specification 3.21.B.2.c implenents the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a(a)(1) that operating procedures be established and followed and that equipment be maintained and used to keep releases to the environment as low as is reasonably achievabic. The OPEPABILITY of the liquid radwaste treatment systen ensures that the appropriate portiens will be available for use whenever liquid effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment. The specification that the portions of the system which were used to establish compliance with the design objectives in 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix 1 Section II be used when specified provides reasonabic assurance that releases of radioactive material in liquid ef fluent will be kept as low as is reason-ably achievable. The activity concentration, 0.01 uCi/ml, below which liquid rad-waste treatment would not be costbeneficial, and therefore not required, is demonstrated below:

The population dose commitment resulting from the radioactive material in liquid effluent released annually has been calculated to be thyroid 1.95 manrem total body 0.56 total 2.5 manrem Therefore, population doses are about 0.5 manrem per curie of iodine released 3

and about 0.8 manrem per curie of other radionuclides (less H ) released in liquids. It would be conservative to assume one manrem committed per curie released in, liquid effluent.

The volume of liquid waste processed and intended for discharge is estimated to be:

6 Lou Purity Waste 5700 gal / day 1.8 x 10 gal /yr Chemical Vaste + 6 Denin Regenerant Waste 4000 gal / day 1.2 x 10 Sal /yr The annual costs to operate the radwaste processing equipment, neglecting credit for capital recovery, are estimated according to Regulatory Guide 1.110 to be:

Tanks included in this specification are those outdoor tanks that are not surrounded by liners, dikes, or walls capable of holding the tanks contents and i that do not have tank overflows and surrounding area drains connected to the liquid radwaste treatment system.

3.21.C & 4.21.C CASEOUS EFFLUENTS 3.21.C.1 & 4.21.C.1 Total Dose Specification 3.21.C.1.a is included to assure that a measure of control is provided over the concentration of radionuclides in air entering the unrestricted area. Radio-active noble gases are monitored by instruments that provide a measure of release rate and cause automatic alarm when the noble gas concentration offsite is expected to exceed the unrestricted area limit specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B. With prenpt action to reduce the radioactive noble gas concentration in effluent following alarn initiation, it can be maintained at a snall fraction of the technical specifi-cation linit. The specified release rate linits restrict the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to an individual at or beyond the exclusion area boundary to < (500) arem/ year to the total body or to < (3000) arem/ year to the skin.

Radioiodines and radionuclides in particulate form are sampled with integrating samplers that permit assessment of the average release rate during each sample col-1ection period. By complying with Specifications 3.21.C.2 and 3.21.C.3 the average offsite concentration will be maintained at a small fraction of the 10 CFR Part 20.106 concentration limit.

3.21.C.2 & 4.21.C.2 Noble Gases Assessments of dose required by Specifications 4.21.C.2 and 4.21.C.3 to verify com-pliance with Appendix I,Section IV is based on measured radioactivity in gaseous l effluent and on calculational methods stated in the ODAM. Pathways of exposure and location of individuals are selected such that the dose to a nearby resident is un-likely to be underestimated. Dose assessment methodology described in the ODAM for

gaseous effluent will be consistent with the methodology in Regulatory Guides 1.109 and 1.111. Cumulative and projected assessments of dose made during a quarter are based on historical average, or reference (the same period of record used in the design objective Appendix I evaluation) atmospheric conditions. Assessments made for the annual radiological environmental report will be based on quarterly and annual i averages of atmospheric conditions during the period of release.

The bases for Specifications 3.21.C.2 and 4.21.C.2 are also discussed in the bases for Specifications 3.21.B.2 and 4.21.B.2 3.21.C.3 & 4.21.C.3 Iodine and Particulates The bases for Specifications 3.21.C.3 and 4.21.C.3 are discussed '.n the bases for Specifications 3.21.B.2 and 4.21.B.2.

The requirement that the appropriate portions of these systems be used when specified provides reasonable assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, and design objective Section IID of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.

The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the systems are specified as a suitable fraction of the dose design objectives set forth in Sections II.B and II.C of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for gaseous effluents.

3.21.C.5 & 4.21.C.5 Hydrogen Concentration This specification is provided to ensure that the concentration of potentially explosive gas mixtures contained in the waste gas treatment system is maintained below the flammability limits of hydrogen and oxygen. While the Augmented Treatment System is in service the hydrogen and oxygen concentrations are prevented from reaching the flannability limits. Maintaining the concentration of hydrogen below its flannability linit provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials will be controlled in confornance with the requirements of General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3.21.C.6 & 4.21.C.6 Air Ejector Restricting the gross radioactivity rate of noble gases from the main condenser pro-vides reasonable assurance that the total body exposure to an individual at the exclusion area boundary will not exceed a small fraction of the limits of 10 CFR Part 100 in the event this effluent is inadvertently discharged directly to the environment without treatment. This specification implements the requirements of Cencral Design Criteria 60 and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, 3.21.C.7 & 4.21.C.7 Containment This specification provides reasonable assurance that releases from drywell purging operations will not exceed the annual dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20 for unrestricted areas.

! able for use whenever solid radwastes require materials processing and packaging prior to being shipped offsite. This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a and General Design Criteria 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3.21.F & 4.21.F MONITORING PROGRAM The radiological environmental monitoring program, including ,the land use census, is conducted to satisfy the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I, Section IV.B.2 and 3. The radioloCi cal monitoring program required by this specification provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program thereby I

supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measure-abic concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of the environ-mental exposure pathwaya.

l The environmental monitoring program described in Table 3.21.F.1 is the minimum pro-gram which will be maintained. The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Manual (REMM) is an internal control document which describes in detail the actual mon-itoring program which is performed to ensure compliance with the specified minimum program. Control of the radiological environmental monitoring program, including the REMM, rests with the Environmental Affairs Division of the Power Operations and not the Ceoper Nuclear Station organization.

The land use census is conducted annually to identify changes in use of the unre-stricted area in order to recommend modifications in monitoring programs for evalu-ating individual doses from principal exposure pathways.

The need to adjust the program to current conditions and to assure that the integrity l of the program is maintained are thereby provided. Restricting the census to gardens l of greater than 500 square feet provides assurance that significant exposure pathways via leafy vegetables will be identified and monitored since a garden of this size is the minimum required to produce the quantity (26 kg/ year) of leafy vegetables assumed in Regulatory Guide 1.109 for consumption by a child. To determine this minimum garden size, the following assumptions were used, 1) that 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegetation (i.e., similar to lettuce and cabbage), and 2) a l vegetation yield of 2 kg/ square meter.

3.21.C & 4.21.G INTERLABORATORY COMPARISON PROGRAM The requirement for participation in a Interlaboratory Comparison Program is pro-vided to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the meas-urements of radioactive material in environmental sample matrices are performed as part of a quality assurance program for environmental monitoring in order to demon-strate that the results are reasonab ticipation in an Interla ompar on rogram is contingent upon availability of samples supplied by the NRC or samples approved by the NRC.
