INTRODUCTION The 1993 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report for Wo!f Creek Generating Station (WCGS) covers the period from January 1 through December 31,1993. WCGS is located in Coffey County, Kansas, approximately five miles northeast of Burlington, Kansas.

Fuel loading commenced at WCGS on March 12,1985. The operational phase of the Radiologica:

Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) began on May 22,1985 with initial criticality and the first detectable quantities of radioactivity were reported in plant effluents in June 1985.

This report contains a description of the REMP conducted by Wolf Creek Nuclear Operating Corporation (WCNOC), results of sample analyses performed by Teledyne isotopes and WCNOC health physics technicians, a discussion of monitoring program results, a description of revisions to and deviations from the program, and comments on the results of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Interlaboratory Comparison Program. Individual sample results and a summary of results in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Branch Technical Position specified format are included as appendices to the report.

No radiological effects of plant operations were detected in airbome particulate and radiciodine filters, fish, irrigated crops, broadleaf vegetation, milk, ground water, or drinking water.

During 1993, activation products were detected in aquatic plants and algae, surface water, shoreline l sediment, and bottom sediment samples.

No measurable impact on human exposure due to plant operation was seen for the year.

0 L PROGRAM DESCRIPTION Radiological environmental samples were collec'ed according to the schedule in Section 5.0 and Table 5-1 of the WCGS Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). All samples were collected by WCNOC's Environmental Management and Radiological Services groups. The samples were processed and analyzed by Teledyne isotopes of Westwood, New Jersey. Table 1 lists sampling pathways and frequencies of campling and analysis. Table 2 lists each sample location's distance and direction from the plant. Samples in addition to those required by the WCGS ODCM were obtained in conjunction with the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) and to monitor additional parameters.

The following is a description of the sampling and analysis program by individual pathways.

Deviations are permitted from the required sampling schedule if specimens are not attainable due to hazardous conditions, seasonable unavailability, malfunction of automatic sampling equipment, and other legitimate reasons. Deviations from the routine sampling schedule and other problems encountered during the year are described in Section IV, Program Deviations.

A. Airborne Low volurr,e air sampling pumps continuously collected particulate and radioiodine samples on 47 mm glass fiber filters and charcoal canisters, respectively. Weekly, the filters and charcoal canisters are changed out, labeled, and then shipped to Teledyne Isotopes for analysis. The volume of air sampled was calculated from the average of initia; =d $n01 flow rates and the total time of collection. Each pump is equipped with a time totalizer that is checked weekly against the elapsed time.

Gross beta analysis of the air particulate samples was performed approximately 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> post l collection to allow the radon and thoron daughter products to decay. Each filter was mounted on a stainless steel planchette and counted on an automatic alpha-beta counter.

Weekly air particulate filters were combined into quarterly composites for each location and analyzed for gamma emitting isotopes on a Ge(Li) detector.

Charcoal canisters were routinely counted in groups of five to determine the presence or absence of  ;

l-131. Positive indication of I-131 would have resulted in analysis of each individual charcoal canister. I 1

Air samples were collected from the three sectors with the highest ground level deposition constants (D/Q), the community of New Strawn, and a control location. Distances and directions to sampling  ;

locations from the plant site are listed in Table 2; locations are shown in Figure 1 (nearby locations) '

and Figure 5 (distant locations).

B. Direct Radiation One type of thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) used during 1993 was provided by Teledyne 1 Isotopes. The TLDs consisted of rectangular Teflon wafers impregnated with CaSO4:Dy. Prior to placement in the field, the dosimeters were annealed for at least one hour at 250 to 260 degrees l Centigrade. The TLDs are then placed in polyethylene pouches and holders containing 0.093 inch l thick copper shields to filter out low energy radiation. Freshly annealed dosimeters were exchanged i with exposed dosimeters and the exposed dosimeters are shipped to Teledyne isotopes for analysis. I Four freshly annealed TLDs are shipped as controls with the exposed TLDs to record any exposure received in transit.

. l

.: l Gamma exposures are measured on a Teledyne Model 8300 TLD reader. Individual dosimeters are then exposed to a Cs-137 source to determine each dosimeter's calibration factor. j i

Panasonic UD-814-AQ TLDs were also used during the third and fourth quarters of 1993. These l TLDS consist of one lithium-borate element and three calcium sulfate elements in a plastic case. Each ' i TLD is annealed and analyzed by Wolf Creek health physics technicians on a Panasonic UD-710A TLD reader.  ;

in peneral, TLDs are positioned roughly 3 to 4 feet above the ground on utility poles. They are l co:,tained in either plastic thermostat boxes or fiberglass air sample pump housings. The boxes and housings protect them from the elements and tampering. Two TLDs are placed at each designated  ;

location. TLD sample locations are illustrated in Figure 2 (nearby locations) and Figure 5 (distant locations). Table 2 provides the distance and direction of each location from the site. -

C. Waterborne All water samples are analyzed for gamma emitters on a Ge(LI) detector. Radiochemical analysis for l-131 is performed on drinking water and ground water samples. Gross beta analysis is performed on drinking water samples. Tritium analysis is performed monthly by liquid scintillation for surface water l and quarterly for drinking water. Tritium analysis is performed by gas proportional counter quarterly for ground water. All water sampling locations are listed in Table 2 and shown in Figures 3 and 5.

i Drinking water is sampled at the water treatment facilities for the towns of Burlington and Leroy. The ,

Burlington facility is located upstream and the Leroy facility is located downstream of the confluence of the effluent from Wolf Creek Cooling Lake (WCCL) and the Neosho River. Monthly, composite ,

samples are obtained from automatic composite samplers at each location that draw approximately 10 i mi samples hourly.  :

Monthly, grab samples are drawn from each surface water location. Surface water is sampled at the outfall of John Redmond Reservoir (JRR) as a control and in the discharge cove and spillway of ,

WCCL for indicator locations.

Ground water samples are collected quarterly from four locations. One ground water well is hydrologically upgradient from the site (location B-12) and is used as a control location.- Three additional samples (C-10, C-49, and D-65) are obtained from wells hydrologically downgradient from  !

the site as indicator samples.

Shoreline sediments are sampled semiannually for gamma analysis at the discharge cove (indicator,  ;

Figure 3) and at JRR (control, Figure 3).

Bottom sediments are also collected semiannually. Samples are obtained for gamma analysis at the discharge cove (indicator, Figure 3) and at JRR (control, Figure 3). In addition, a sample was ,

obtained in the area of the ultimate heat sink (UHS, Figure 3). l Semiannual aquatic plant and algae samples are obtained for gamma analysis from the discharge cove area or from an attemate location near the discharge cove (DC and DC ALT, respectively on i Figure 3). i l

D. Ingestion  ;

Milk samples are collected semimonthly from April through November (while the animals are feeding on pasture grass) and monthly from December through March (while the animals are on stored feed).

No sampling locations that produced milk for human consumption were identified within 5 miles of the j  ;

plant during 1993. Therefore, only control samples were obtained. Radiochemcal 1-131 and gamma >

isotopic analyses were performed on each sample. The control location is illustrated on Figure 5.  !

Broadleaf vegetabon samples were collected monthly during the growing season from four gardens. ~ '

The three indicator gardens (two regular and one altemtfr) and a control garden were sampled (Figure 5). Gamma isotopc analysis was performed on all samples.

Irrigated crops (soybeans and com) were also sampled Two samples were obtained from cropland  !

downstream of the confluence of WCCL effluents cnd the Neosho River (indcator) and two samples _;

were obtained upstream (control). However, due to high rainfall amounts in the region during 1993,  ;

no irrigation from the Neosho River occurred during 1993. The samples were still obtained to serve l as baseline data and to continue contact with local landowners. Gamma isotopic analysis was  :

performed on each sample. i

'i Fish are sampled from the tail waters of JRR (control) and from WCCL semiannually for gamma  !

isotopic analysis (Figure 4). Several recreationally important species and rough species are sampled. j Gamma isotopic analysis is performed on boneless meat portions of the fish. 'l Game animals and fowl are sampled annually in the immediate vicinity of the plant and at a control f location that is remote from the site. Gamma isotopic analysis is performed on boneless meat  !

portions of the game, j All sampling locations listed in this section are outlined in Table 2.

IL DISCUSSION OF RESULTS Analysis results for all pathways are summarized in Appendix A using the format described in NRC Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position, Revision 1, November 1979. Results for individual samples are listed in Appendix B. .

t in this section, results are discussed by pathway and analysis type. Operational results are related to controls, preoperational data, sources of radioactivity, and effluent releases when applicable. Trends or seasonal effects are discussed. Tables 3 through 16 illustrate results of interest for 1993.

Associated errors for positive results may be obtained in Appendix B.  ;

A. Airborne Results of the weekly gross beta analysis are summarized in Table 3.

Figure 6 illustrates a plot of weekly gross beta results for 1993. Figure 8 illustrates a historical plot of the gross beta 1/C ratios and includes a smoothed average trend. Although the smoothed average has a very slight increasing trend, the gross beta values for the time period are consistent with expected background and suggest that the slightly increasing 1/C ratios are a result of changing environmental conditions. For instance, Figure 7 illustrates a slightly decreasing trend for location 40 (airbome sample control location) since 1989. Decreasing control values would tend to increase the 1/C ratio over time. In addition, no radiciodine has been detected since 1989. Therefore, the slight increase in gross beta 1/C ratios is due to a slight decrease in control location gross beta values over time and is not due to plant operations. It is also interesting to note that the smoothed plot (Figure 7) shows a definite seasonal cyclic trend in which gross beta values peak in the winter months (December or January) and decrease to a low point in the spring months (May or June). <

Figure 9 illustrates a historical plot of average weekly indicator and control gross beta values during plaat operations.

Table 4 summarizes the gamma analyses of 1993 airbome particulate filter quarterly composites. The table shows that only natural radioisotopes Be-7 and K-40 were detected.

No effects of plant operation were seen via air samples during 1993.

B. Direct Radiation Quarterly 1993 gamma exposures for each location are summarized in Tables 5 and 6. Values are l normalized to a standard 90 day quarter. Figure 10 shows the nearsite TLD data expressed as a percentage of the control data. Results from TLDs located near the plant site (<3 miles distant) have been combined into quarterly averages. Note that nearsite TLD locations have historically trended higher than the controllocations both prior to and after WCGS became operational. Figure 11 shows the historical quarterly average values expressed in mrem /std 90 day quarter for both nearsite and controllocations.

Figure 11 also shows that the levels of direct radiation measured by thermoluminescent dosimeters near Wolf Creek have declined from 1980 to 1993. This decrease in measured radiation levels is suspected to be caused by a oecline in TLD efficiency. Linear regression analyses of the direct radiation levels expressed as averages for a standard 90-day quarter indicate that measured radiation levels have declined significantly at indicator locations-(p is less than or equal to 0.05 and r-squared is 1993 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Wolf Creek Generating Station Page 5 of 50 REV 4/93

. l equal to 0.49) and at control locations (p is less than or equal to 0.05 and r-squared is equal to 0.45).

This decrease in measured direct radiation levels is not believed to be caused by a decrease in environmental direct radiation levels because Kansas Department of Health and Environment direct radiation results for locations near Wolf Creek do not show a similar decrease in measured direct radiation levels (intemal KDHE data).

Despite the decline in direct radiation levels measured by Wolf Creek's TLDs, a comparison of ,

indicator and control location results still indicates that the direct radiation levels are not related to plant operation. As also shown in Figure 11, the ratio of the near-site indicator location results to the controllocation results has remained near 100 percent through 1993. The near-sMe indicator location results and the control location results exhibited significant correlation (p is less than or equal to 0.05 and R is equal to 0.93) and this indicates that fluctuations in direct radiation levels were measured with a high degree of certainty by both the indicator and control location TLDs.

However, if measured direct radiation levels continue to decline, the TLD results will fall below the range of pre-operational averages for Wolf Creek and the range of direct radiation levels measured by the NRC (note 1) and KDHE (note 2). Panasonic UD-814-AQ TLDs were placed in the same ,

locations as the Teledyne isotopes TLDs during the third and fourth quarters of 1993 as a cross-comparison measure and the Teledyne TLDs will be replaced with the Panasonic TLDs during 1994.

Please note that the supplemental Panasonic TLD data were used for the third quarter of 1993 on '

Figure 11 because the third quarter Teledyne TLDs could not be accurately analyzed. Because only one Panasonic TLD was used at each location and the Panasonic TLDs produce one less reading than the Teledyne TLDs, the third quarter average direct radiation values were based on fewer data points than the first, second and fourth quarter direct radiation results. Please refer to the program deviations section for more information about the third quarter TLDs.

C. Waterborne (1) Drinking Water Results of drinking water gamma isotopic analyses are summarized in Table 7. No tritium was detected in drinking water samples during 1993. Figure 14 illustrates the historical drinking water gross oeta data through 1993. The composite samples for May 4 through June 1 and August 3 )

through August 31 exhibited elevated gross beta results, especially in the duplicate sample results for i indicator location LW40 on both June 1 and August 31. The indicator and control location both displayed elevated values for June 1, which suggests that the elevated values are not related to plant ,

operations. Comparing the error range for the indicator location gross beta results on June 1 and j August 31 shows that the initial results are within the error range of the duplicate results. No other j nuclides were identified during 1993. I l

No activity due to plant operations were evident in drinking water samples during 1993. )

i (2) Surface Water Surface water data are sumrriarized in Table 8. Tritium was the only nuclide identified in surface l water samples during 1993. Fgure 12 41ustrates smoothed tritium data for WCCL from startup in May 1985 through 1993 for locations DC and SP and the cumulative curies of tritium released to WCCL.

Tritium values t ave been declining recently and the declining trend may be due to high precipitation durin; 1993. Sig$ cant discharge from WCCL occurred during 1993 as a result of precipitation. The ,

increased precipitation allowed some dilution or replacement (with nontritiated water) of the tritiated water inventory in WCCL The region had experienced a prolonged drr,ught during the previous 2 to 3 i years. Little discharge from WCCL occurred during the dry period. Note that the tritium levels are well below the 20,000 pCi/ liter reporting limit for drinking water sources and the 30,000 pCi/ liter limit for other water sources. Figure 13 illustrates the same smoothed tritium data for WCCL except quarterly l tritium effluent discharges are plotted.

(3) Ground Water No gamma emitters or tritium were detected in ground water samples during 1993. A summary of results is included in Table 9.

(4) Shoreline Sediment 1

Naturally occurring nuclides Ra-226, Th-228, and K-40 were detected in shoreline sediment samples during 1993. Co-60 and Cs-137 were detected in samples obtained from the discharge cove (DC) and Cs-137 was also detected in a control location sample collected from JRR. The Co-60 activity is  ;

attributable to plant operations but the Cs-137 activity is likely the result of increased atmospheric fallout. The levels of Cs-137 activity detected in the discharge cove and control location samples j exceed the range of Cs-137 fallout measured during pre-operational studies (0.0131 to i 0.0478 pCi/ gram). No Cs-134 was detected in the shoreline sediment samples, as would be expected if the source of the Cs-137 activity was pla..t operations. Cs-134 has a half-life of 2.05 years and it would be expected to be detected in a sample collected close to a source of both Cs-134 and Cs-137.  ;

Neither Cs-137 or Cs-134 were detected in monthly surface water samples collected at the discharge l cove or JRR during 1993. Arialysis results are summarized in Table 11.

D. Ingestion (1) Milk No indicator locations for milk were available for sampling during 1993 (see Program Deviation section for explanation). A control sample was routinely obtained for analysis. Potassium-40 levels were l consistent with preoperational data. The yearly average K-40 concentration was 1392 pCi/ liter. I Table 15 summarizes milk analysis results for 1993.

No other gamma emitters were detected.

(2) Food and Garden Crops i

Gamma analyses of broadleaf vegetation samples during 1993 revealed naturally occurring gamma l emitters K-40 and Be-7 at concentrations consistent with preoperational levels. l Another naturally-occurring isotope, Th-228, was detected in one broadleaf vegetation sample during 1993 at 61 pCi / kilogram. Broadleaf vegetation results are summarized in Table 13. l 1993 Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report Wolf Creek Generating Station 1 Page 7 of 50  !

.l No additional gamma emitters were detected in broadleaf vegetation samples during the remainder of [

the year, i

Crop samples were obtained from lands normally irrigated by the Neosho River below the outfall of f WCCL. However, due to adequate precipitation during 1993, no irrigation was needed The samples f were still obtained to continue Wolf Creek's relationship with local landowners and to continue to ,

establish baseline values. Results of crop analyses are summarized in Table 14. l No nuclides attributable to plant operations were detected.

(3) Fish Analysis results are illustrated in Table 16. Naturally occurring K-40 was detected in all fish samples at an average concentration of 3.247 pCl / kilogram (wet weight). No other radionuclides were '

detected in fish during the year.

E. Special Samples (not required by the WCGS ODCM) l (1) Game Animals and Birds Naturally occurring K-40 was detected in all game animal and bird samples in concentrations consistent with preoperational levels. No other radionuclides were detected and no effects of plant operations were detected in this pathway.

(2) Bottom Sedimer,t Table 12 shows gamma emitters detected during 1993 in bottom sediment samples. Sampling locations include the Ultimate Heat Sink (UHS), DC, and JRR. Natural nuclides detected include K-40, Ra-226, and Th-228.

Several other nuclides were detected in bottom sediment samples. A portion of the Cs-137 activity detected in WCCL bottom sediments is probably attributable to fallout and a portion is due to plant operations. The Cs-137 levels are only slightly higher than those reported prior to WCGS criticality and therefore a major portion of the activity is due to fallout. However, the Mn-54, Co-58, Co-60 and Cs-134 activity shown in the table are attributed to plant operations and are regularly identified in plant effluents.

Be-7 was detected in one of five supplemental samples collected in the discharge cove during 1993 as an attempt to determine the variation of activity levels in the discharge cove. The activity levels detected at the supplemental sample locations were consistent with the levels detected at location DC.

1 (3) Aquatic Vegetation l l

Table 10 shows gamma emitters detected during 1993 in aquatic plant samples. Naturally occurring i Be-7, K-40, Ra-226 and Th-228 were detected. An alga sample accumulated the most detectable l activity. Mn-54, Fe-59, Cr-51, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Nb-95/Zr-95, Nb-95, Ru-103, Ru-106, Sb-125, Cs-134, and Cs-137 were all detected in at least the alga sample and some were detected in the other aquatic plant samples as well.
