0FFSITE DOSE ASSESSMENT MANUAL FOR GASEOUS AND LIQUID EFFLUENT 1.0 Introduction i

This Manual describes acceptable methods of calculating radioactivity con-centrations in the environment and the potentially resultant personal dose equivalent commitment offsite* that are associated with LWR liquid and gaseous effluents. The radioactivity concentrations and dose estimates are used to demonstrate compliance with Environmental Technical Specifications required by 10 CFR 50.36.a.

The methodology stated in this Manual is acceptable for use in demonstrating operational compliance with 10 CFR 20.106,10 CFR 50 Appendix I, and 40 CFR 190.10(a). Only the dose attributable to the Station is considered in demonstrating compliance with 40 CFR 190 since no other nuclear facility exists within 50 miles of the Station.

Calculations are made to assess the air dose from radioactive noble gases near ground level at the offsite location that could be occupied by a person where the maximum air dose is expected. The maximum dose commitment to the person offsite potentially experiencing the maximum exposure to all other radioactive material measured in gaseous and liquid effluents released from the Station is also calculated. Alternatively, the dose commitment from effluents other than radioactive noble gases may be calculated to correspond with residence at an occupiable location where airborne exposures are unlikely to underestimate those experienced by the maximally expered person.

  • Offsite is defined in the Technical Specifications Definitions.

4' 2.0 Liquid Effluent 2.1 Radioactivity In Liquid Waste The concentration of radionuclides in liquid waste is determined by sampling and analysis in accord with Table 4.21.B.1 of the Technical Specifications. Alternatively, pre-release analysis of the radioactivity concentration in liquid waste required by Specification 4.21.B.I.a may be done by gross p-T counting provided an unrestricted area MPC for unidentified emitters, 1 x 10'I pCi/ml, is applied where the discharge canal meets the river. When a radionuclide concentration is below the LLD for the analysis, it is not reported as being present in the sample.

2.2 Aqueous Concentration Radioactive material in liquid effluent is diluted successively by water flowing in the discharge canal and in the river. The diluted concentration of radionuclide i in a receiving stream is estimated with the equation C. = C. F f

In the event water is drawn from the river downstream of the Station, F2 represents the portion of the river flow into which the liquid effluent from the Station is effectively mixed.

2.3 Method of Establishing Alarm Setpoints l

The liquid waste effluent monitor and the service water monitor are i

connected to alarms which provide automatic indication when 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 concentrations are expected to be exceeded offsite.

With prompt action to reduce radioactive releases I

following an alarm, the liquid release limit of 10 CFR Part 20.106 and the limits provided by 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix 1,Section IV are unlikely to be exceeded after the alarm.

l l

  • e The alarm setpoint for the liquid effloent radiation monitor is derived from the concentration limit provided in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 applied where the discharge canal flows into the river.

The alarm setpoint does not consider dilution, dispersion, or decay of radioactive material in the river. The radiation monitoring and isolation points are located in each line through which radioactive waste effluent is eventually discharged into the discharge canal.

The alarm setpoint calculation for each liquid effluent monitor is based upon measurement according to Table 4.21.B.4 of radioactivity in a batch of liquid to be released or in the continuous aqueous discharge.

Alternatively, the alarm setpoint may be based upon gross p-T activity analysis of the liquid waste provided the unrestricted area MPC for

~7 unidentified emitters,1 x 10 pCi/ml, is observed.

In any case, a monitor may be set to alarm or trip at a lower activity concentration than the calculated setpoint.

2.3.1 Setpoint for a Batch Release 4

A sample of each batch of liquid radwaste is analyzed for I-131 and principal gamma emitters, or for total activity concentration prior to release. The ratio, FMPC,

When FMPC is derived from analyses identifying iodine and principal bp gamma emitters only, the value FMPC may be adjusted to account for bp radionuclides measured in the monthly and quarterly composite sample, but not measured prior to release. This adjustment, derived from measurements during past calendar quarters, is calculated with the equation FMPC3 = FMPCbp + Eb Previous quarterly average of the fraction of MPC in the where Eb = discharge canal due to I-131 and primary gamma emitters previous quarterly average of the fraction of MPC in the i

discharge canal due to all radionuclides in batch releases.

A reference value of E, derived from representative past measure-b l

The value of FMPC computed with this expression is substituted in the preceedirg equation to calculate the setpoint.

In the event a long-term trend is evident in setpoints derived from the weekly sample and a setroint value can be derived from the aggregate of the weekly samples which appears to have less variability and to better represent the effluent, then the setpoint based on the combined, long-term data may be used.

2.4 Radioactivity Concentration in Water at the Unrestricted Area Boundary Technical Specification 4.21.B.1.b requires that measured radioactivity concentrations in liquid releases be evaluated to verify that the activity concentration complied with Specification 3.21.B.1.a.

Demonstration of compliance with Specification 3.21.B.2.a as specified in Specification 4.21.B.2.a is deemed to verify compliance with Specification 3.21.B.1.a.

Otherwise, the quarterly average radionuclide concentration in the discharge canal, expressed as a fraction of MPC, shall be computed quarterly from the following six components:

1) the average fraction of MPC of the nuclides measured by analyses prior to each batch release the average fraction of MPC of the nuclides measured by the monthly 2) ccmposite analyses of the batch releases (H-3, alpha emitters) 3)

the average fraction of MPC of the nuclides measured by the quarterly compo4ite analysis of the batch releases (Sr-89, Sr-90, and Fe-55) 4)

the average fraction of MPC of the nuclides measured by the weekly composite analyses of the continuous releases 5) the average fraction of MPC of the nuclides measured by the monthly composite analyses of the continuous releases (H-3 and alpha emitters) 6)

the average fraction of MPC of the nuclides measured by the quarterly composite analysis of the continuous releases (Sr-89, Sr-90, and Fe-55)

2.5 Accumulated Personal Maximum Dose Technical Specification 4.21.B.2.a requires the dose or dose commitment to a member of the public due to radioactive material released in liquid effluent to be calculated on a cumulative basis at least once every 31 days. The requirement-is satisfied by computing the accumulated dose l

i commitment to the most exposed organ and to the totai body of a hypothetical person exposed by eating fish and drinking water taken from the river offsite near the discharge canal.

The accumulated dose commitment is computed at least once every 31 days, but may be computed as analyses becomes available. The dose will be calculated as a function of age group and pathway for appropriate body organs in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1, utilizing the I.ADTAPII computer code.

In the event LADTAPII is not operable for calculating the dose commitment the computation may be made in the following way:

season. For instance, when fishing near the Station during the winter is nonexistent, evaluation of the fish pathway is not required.

2.6 Projected Personal Maximum Dose Technical Specification 4.21.B.2.b requires the maximum total body and organ doses to a person offsite due to radioactive material released in liquid effluent to be projected over a quarter at least one time during every 31 days if radioactive liquid radwaste is released and the radwaste system is not operated.

This requirement is satisfied by calculating the projected dose commitment to a hypothetical person exposed by eating fish and drinking water taken from the river offsite near the discharge canal. The potential dose commitments to organs and to the total body are computed separately.

The quarterly dose commitment to a maximally exposed hypothetical person is projected by computing the accumulated doses to the total body and _ - _

3.0 Gaseous Effluent 3.1 Introduction The Station diachaeges gaseous effluent through a stack (Elevated Release Point) and dircharges ventilation air from the radwaste, augmented raduacte, tmbine, and reactor buildings through the respective building vents. These geseous effluent streams, radioactivity monitoring points, and effluent discharge points are shown schematically in Figure 3-1.

Gaseous release point locations and elevations at Cooper Station are described in Table 3-1.

Gaseous discharges from tne Elevated Release Point (EPR) are treated as an elevated release while discharges via building vents are assumed to be ground-level releasea or split-wake releases.

4 Gaseous release point locations and elevations at the Station are described in Table 3-1.

3.2 Radioactivity in Gaseous Effluent i

i For the purpose of estimating offsite radionuclide concentrations and radiation doses, measured radionuclide concentrations in gaseous effluent l

l and in ventilation air exhausted from the Station are relied uoon.

l Table 4.21.C.1 in the Technical Specifications identifies the radioactive l,

gaseous effluent measurements. When a radionuclide concentration is below the LLD for the analysis, it is not reported as being present in the sample.

Noble Gases. The distribution of noble gas radionuclides in a gaseous effluent is determined in one of the following ways.

1.

Preferrably, the radioacclide distribution is obtained by gamma spectrum analysis of e f fluet. t gas semples in accordance with Specification 4.21.C.).

Resultr. of analyses of one or more samples may be averaged to obtain a represen*.stive spectrum.

2.

In the event a reprecentative radioactive noble gas distribution is unobtainable from samples taken during the period of interest, it may be derived f rom previous measurements or may be based upon a computed spectrum appearing in Table 3-2.

3.

Alternatively, the total activity concentration of radioactive noble gases may be assumed to be krypton - 88.

The total quantity of radioactive noble gas discharged during an interval of time is determined by integrating the rate measurement of each effluent noble gas monitor. This may be done by the effluent monitoring system or the measured activity discharged via a gaseous effluent stream may be calculated with the equation Q = 2.8 x 104N*F 8

where Q = total radioactive noble gas release via a gaseous effluent stream during a given time interval (pCi)

N = net counts accumulated during the time interval g = effluent noble gas monitor counting rate response cpm 3

3.3 Main Condenser Air Ejector Noble Gas Monitor Alarm Setpoin_t_

i A noble gas activity monitor is provided to vaasure gross gamra activity in gases at the main condenser air ejector. The monitor includes an alarm that is set to report when the gamma radiation level in gas discharged by the main condenser air ejector indicates the aross raoicactivity discharge rate exceeds 1 Ci/sec.

3.4 Effluent Noble Gas M)nitor Alarm Setpoint Technical Specification 4.21.C.1.b requi res an alarm setpoint to be determined for each radioactive ncble gas effluent monitor. Each setpoint is derived to cause the alarm to report when the dose equivalent rate Offsite due to radioactive noble ggs in gaseous effluent exceeds a limit in Specificatio1 3.21.C.l.a.

Alternatively, a setpoint may be derived on the basii of the 10 CFR P tt 20, Appendix B, Table II, column 2 limit for the s

radioactive neble gas nixture in air near ground-level Offsite. Each noole gin activity monitor included in Tabic 3.21.A.2 except the main condenser air ejector off gas monitor is set to initiate alarm at or beicy the derived setpoint.

For the purpose of deriving a setpoint, the distribution of noble gas radionuclides in an effluent stream is determined as described in Section 3.2.

Setpoint Based on Dose Rate. The alarm setpoint of a radioactive noble gas effluent monitor may be calculated on the basis of whole body dose equivalent rate offsite. A setpoint of a monitor of an elevated release, e.g., from the stack, may be calculated with the equation.

Setpoint Based on Concentration. The alarm setpoint of an effluent noble l

gas monitor may be calculated on the basis of the 10 CFR part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column I concentration limit for radioactive noble gases. The equation used to calculate a setpoint on this basis is:

Speci fication 3.21.C.2.a requires that the offsite air dose during any calendar quarter not exceed 5 mrad from noble gas gamma radiation..

The distribution of radioactive noble gases in gaseous releases and the quantity discharged during an interval of interest are determined as described in Section 3.2.

The ganma radiation dose to air offsite as a consequence of noble gas released from the station will be calculated in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 1, utilizing USNRC Computer Code GASPAR.

3.7 Dose Due to Iodine and Particulates in Gaseous Effluents

  • Technical Specification 3.21.C.3 requires that radioiodine, and radioactive material in particulate form having half-lives greater than eight days in gaseous effluents released to the area offsite cause no more than 7.5 mrem to any organ of a member of the public during a calendar quarter. Specification 4.21.C.3.b requires the dose to be ca)culated at least once every 31 days.

Radionuclides other than noble gases or tritium in gaseous effluents that are measured by the sampling and analysis program described in Technical Specification Table 4.21.C.1 are used as the release term in dose calculations. Airborne releases are discharged either via the stack (ERP) as an elevated release or via building vents and treated as a ground level or split-wake release. For each of these release combinations, samples are analyzed weekly, monthly, quarterly, or for a specific release according to Table 4.21.C.I.

Each sample provides a measure of the concentration of specific radio-nuclides, C, in gaseous effluent discharged at flow, F,, during a time 1

When the. dose to a person from iodine and particulates discharged in gaseous effluent is calculated a's required by Specification 4.21.C.3.b, appropriate environmental pathways of exposure will be evaluated.

Since tritium in water vapor is absorbed directly by vegetation, the tritium concentration in growing vegetation is proportional to the airborne concentration rather than to relative deposition as in the case of particulates.

Thus the dose commitment from airborne tritium via vegetation (fruit and vegetables), air grass-cow-milk, or air grass-cow-meat pathways is calculated with the appropriate one(s) of the equations:

3.8 Dose to a Person from Noble Gases Technical Specification 4.21.D.1 requires the calculation of dose to a member of the public for the purpose of assessing compliance with provisions of 40 CFR Part 190.10(a).

The total dose to the skin from noble gases is approximately equal to the beta radiation dose to the skin plus the gamma radiation dose to the total body.

3.9 Projected Air Doses Due to Gaseous Effluent Technical Specification 4.21.C.4.a requires air doses due to radioactive material in gaseous effluent to be projected over a quarter during each month in which radioactive material is released in gaseous effluent without treatment. The purpose is to guide plant personnel in operating the Waste Gas System and the exhaust ventilation treatment systems.

The air doses are projected by calculating the air doses accumulated during the most recent three months in accordance with Sections 3.5 and 3.6 and by assuming the result represents the projected doses during the current quarter.

Alternatively, the quarterly air dose may be projected by using the equation:

4.0 Dose Commitment From Releases Over Extended Time 4

- 4.1 Releases During A Quarter Technical Specificatica 6.7.1.E.2 requires an annual assessment of radiation doses arising from liquid and gaseous effluents from the Station during each calendar quarter.

The assessment includes the following calculations of doses for 1.

total body and maximally exposed organ doses due to liquid effluent via ' drinking water and eating fish from the river as in S 2.6.

2.

total body and maximally exposed organ doses due to gaseous effluents

  • other than noble gases and tritium as in S 3.7.

3.

doses to air offsite due to noble gas T as in S 3.5 and due to noble gas as in S 3.6.

The dose calculations are based on liquid and gaseous effluents from the Station during each calendar quarter determined in accord with Technical Specification Tables 4.21.B.1 and 4.21.C.I.

i e

  • radioactive iodine-131, iodine-133, and radioactive material in particulate form, having half-lives greater than eight days. _.

Aqueous concentration is estimated according to 2.2 on the basis of quarterly averaged stream flow or stream flow during discharge.

If practical, quarterly averaged meteorological conditions concurrent with the quarterly gaseous release being evaluated are used to estimate atmospheric dispersion and deposition.

Otherwise, the quarterly dose 2

commitment due to gaseous effluent will be calculated using either reference meteorology or annual averaged meteorology during the year in i

which the release occurred.

The receptor of the dose is described such that the dose to any resident near the Station is unlikely to be underestimated. That is, the receptor is selected on the basis of the combination of applicable pathways of exposure to gaseous effluent identified in the annual land use census and maximum ground level X at the residence.

Conditions (i.e., location, Q

X, and/or pathways) more conservative (i.e., expected to yield higher Qcalculated doses) than appropriate for the maximally exposed individual may be assumed in the dose assessment.

Seasonal appropriateness of exposure pathways may be considered. Exposure by eating fresh vegetation or drinking milk from cows or goats fed fresh forage is an inappropriate assumption during the fiest or fourth calendar l

quarter; rather consumption of stored vegetation and stored forage is l

l ordinarily assumed.

Similarly, the liquid effluent-river-fish-man pathway is not ordinarily i

l_

assumed during the winter quarter.

! i m

Factors converting stack-released noble gas to gamma radiation dose from the overhead plume are calculated on the basis of reference meteorological data for the receptor location.

Other environmental pathway-to-dose transfer factors used in the dose calculations are provided in Appendix A.

4.2 Releases During 12 Months The regulation governing the maximum allowable dose or dose commitment to a member of the public from all uranium fuel cycle sources of radiation and radioactive material in the environment is stated in 40 CFR

~

Part 190.10(a). It requires that the dose or dose commitment to a member of the public frem all sources not exceed 75 mrem /yr to the thyroid or 25 mrem /yr to the total body or any other organ.

Technical Specification 4.21.D.1 requires calculation of the dose at least'once per year to assess compliance with the regulation. If conditions,rrant, according to provisions of Specification 3.21.D.1, an assessme. may be made for a portion of a calendar year.

Fuel cycle sources or nuclear power reactors other than the Station itself do not measurably or significantly increase the radioactivity concentration in the vicinity of the Station; therefore, only radiation and radioactivity in the environment attributable to the Station itself are considered in the assessment of compliance with 40 CFR Part 190.

i I

l l

l l l' l

l

The dose to a member of the public which is due to exposure to radioactive material in liquid and gaseous effluents from the station are ordinarily calculated while the dose attributable to irradiation is evaluated with environmental radiation dosimetry.

The receptor of the dose is selected on the basis of the combination of applicable pathways of exposure to gaseous effluent identified in the annual land use census and minimum atmospheric dispersion factor (maximum ground level X) at his residence. The receptor is described such that the Q

dose to any resident near the Station is not likely to be underestimated.

Conditions more conservative than appropriate for the maximally exposed (real) person may be assumed in the dose assessment.

Calculated Doses. Doses to a member of the public are calculated on the basis of liquid and gaseous effluents from the station determined in accord with Technical Specifications Tables 4.21.B.1 and 4.24.C.1.

Contributions to the dose due to liquid and gascous effluent are calculated as described by the equations for:

1.

total body and maximally exposed organ doses due to liquid effluent via drinking water and eating fish from the river as in S 2.6.

2.

total body dose due to noble gas T as in 5 3.8.1.

3.

skin dose due to noble gas as in a 3.8.2.

. i

s 4.

total body and maximally exposed crgan doses due to gaseous effluents

  • other than noble gases as in S 3.7.

Aqueous radioactive material concentratioins are estimated according to S 2.2 on the basis of annual averaged stream flow.

Atmospheric dispersion, deposition, and if calculated, exposure by irradiation from airborne emitters are based on annual averaged meteorological conditions during the year evaluated or, alternatively, on reference meteorological conditions. In,the event a portion of the year is examined, average meteorology for the period examined may be used in lieu of annual averaged or reference meteorology data.

Factors converting stack-released noble gas to gamma radiation dose from the overhead plume are calculated on the basis of annual averaged meteorological data for the receptor location.

Other environmental pathway-to-dose - transfer factors used in the dose calculations appear in Appendix A.

Eniironmental Measurements.

When assessing compliance with 40 CFR 190, Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program results may be used to.

indicate actual radioactivity levels in the environment attributable to CNS as an alternate to calculating the concentrations from radioactive effluent measurements.

The measured environmental activity levels may thus be used to supplement the evaluation of doses to real persons for assessing compliance with 40 CFR 190.

  • radioactive iodine, tritium, and radioactive material in particulate form having half-lives greater than eight days.

The dose to a member of the public due to irradiation (external exposure to gamma radiation) from the station and station effluents will be estimated with the aid of environmental TLD, PIC, or similar environmental dosimetry.

This will be done by examining the annual dosimetry data for a statistical difference between measurements near the station and background measurements.

Alternatively, irradiation attributable to station effluents may be calculated by methods referenced earlier in this section.

The person most exposed to radiation and radioactive material in effluent from Cooper Station is expected to live within ten miles of the Station.

Although the Station is in a rural area, the maximum personal exposure due to airborne effluent almost certainly occurs to a resident within three or l

four miles of it.

Since the nearest public water intake downstream of Cooper Station in the Missouri River is about 85 miles, radioactive liquid effluent contamination of potable water is not foreseen to be significant.

The other liquid effluent pathway of potential significance, via fish taken from the river, would be evaluated when assessing compliance with 40 CFR 190 only in the event that a significant increase in fishing downstream in the river near the Station occurs during the previous 12 months.

Fishing within about ten miles downstream of the Station is considered to be nonexistent during the first quarter and negligable during the remainder of the year. In the event the fish pathway is evaluated to assess compliance with 40 CFR 190, the fish would be taken from the river within ten miles downstream of the Station., -

APPENDIX A PATINAY-DOSE TRANSFER FACTORS Environmental pathway transfer factors, usage factors, and dose commitment factors appropriate for each exposure pathway, age, and organ are umbined into integrated environmental concentration-to-dose factors for each radionuclide.

This appendix includes tables of values of the transfer factors calculated in accord with equations and values recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 0, except as noted below.*

Appropriate transfer factors from Appendix A are used in performing dose assessment calculations prescribed in the ODAM. The transfer factors have been tabulated for individual pathways. If a single, composite transfer factor is desired, it can be obtained by summing the factors-for appropriate pathways for a given organ and age group of interest.

  • Quantities used in calculating pathway to dose transfer factors which differ from values recommended in Regulatory Guide 1.109, Revision 0, are these:

1.

factor for converting inhaled Fe-59 to adult liver dose i

2.

bioaccumulation factor for tellurium in fish and shellfish 3.

stable element transfer factor for Pa in meat.
