Subj ect: Figure C1.0.1 - Liquid Radwaste Treatment System

- Commenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Commsnt: Effluent environmental release points not clearly identi-fied; end discharge point not designated.

Response: Effluent environmental release points are designated on Figure 5.1.3 of Catawba's Technical Specifications. Duke Power Company feels that this would be a duplication of information already presented in a controlled document.

With this explanation, no action is planned.

The end discharge points of liquid waste releases will be clarified on Figure C1.0.1.

Subject:

Page C-8, Liquid Radiation Monitors Commenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Comment: In liquid setpoint calculations, Licensee has not addressed the possibility of simultaneous releases. Also setpoints for service water and component cooling water are not provided.

Response: Section 1.0, page 1-1, " Release Rate Calculations" address-es the possibility of simultaneous releases by stating that such releases could be administratively controlled so that the limitations addressed on page lii would not be exceed-ed. Duke Power Company uses this same type of control (via station procedures) at both its Oconee and McGuire plants without any problems.

The service water monitor and component cooling water monitor are not longer considered to be effluent monitors and have been deleted from Catawba's Technical Specifica-tions (Tables 3.3-12 and 4.3-8).

With this explanation, no action is planned.

Subject:

Page C-11, Gas Monitors Commenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Comment: Licensee should justify using only Xe-133 in the setpoint calculation.

Response: Historical data as well as Table 11.3.3.1 in the Catawba FSAR show that >80% of the curies found in gaseous effluents are from the radionuclide Xe-133. This information will be added to Section C3.2.

Comment: Setpoir,ts should be calculated for all monitors proposed by the Licensee in Table 3.3-13 of the RETS submittal.

Responne; Typical setpoint calculations for each gaseous effluent stream monitor listed in Table 3.3-13 of the RETS submittal are shown on page C-11 of the ODCM. With this explanation, no action is planned.

Comment: Also, possible simultaneous releases from effluent lines are not addressed.

Response: Section 1.0, page 1-1, " Release Rate Calculations" address-es the possibility of simultaneous releases by stating that such releases could be administrative 1y controlled so that the limitations addressed on page til are not exceeded.

Duke Power Company uses the same type of control (via station procedures) at both its Oconec and McGuire plants without any problems. No action is planned.

Subject:

Page C-13 Liquid Effluent Commenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Comment: 1) Licensee should provide the basis for the near field dilution factor Dy (37.7).

Response: Basis for Dy will be added to pages C-12 and C-13.

Comment: 2) Units are not assigned for dose D and data provided in WB Table C.4.0-3.

Response: The units " mrem /hr per pCi/ml," inadvertently lef t off, will be added.

Comment: 3) According to NUREG-0133 (Section 4.3.1) only adult fish consumption will be considered. Can Licensee justify child fish consumption is more conservative?

Response: Section C4.3.1, Case 2, will be changed to reflect adult fish consumption.

- Subj ect: Page C-12, Section C4.2.2.2 Page C-15, Section C4.3.2.2 Commenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Comment:

As method to obtain doses from Tritium is different from that for Iodine-131, Licensee should also include the method for the Tritium dose calculation in these sections.

Response

Historical data has shown that I-131 contributes >95% of the dose to the thyroid of an infant. The factor "1.05" allows the remaining 5%, of which Tritium comprises some 3%, to be considered. Additionally, should a user need to calculate the Tritium dose, the method is provided in Section 3.1.2.2. With this explanation, no action is planned.

Subject:

Page 15, Gaseous Effluents (C4.3.2.1)

Commenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Comment: The assumption that Xe-133 contributes 45% to the dose is inconsistent with Section C3.2 where Licensee assumes 100%

contribution (is) from Xe-133 for dose rate calculation (s).

Response: Section C3.2 deals with typical setpoint calculation for gaseous radiation monitors. As previously stated, >80% of the curies in a gaseous effluent release is from Xe-133, and therefore, radiation monitors are calibrated to the most abundant radionuclide. Section C4.3.2.1 deals with simplified dose estimates. IIistorically, approximately 45%

of the Gamma dose and Beta air dose is from the radio-nuclide Xe-133. No further action is planned.

Liquid Dose Projection Commenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Comment: Licensee has not specifically addressed (that) site-specific monthly dose projection (s). To (will) be used for Liquid Radwaste Treatment Actions.

Response: Technical Specification 4.11.1.3.1 states that " Doses ....

shall be projected .... in accordance with ... the ODCM."

Section C4.1 of the ODCM states " Dose projections shall be performed using simplified dose estimates." No action is planned.

Comment: Licensee claimed in Section 3.2 that site-specific informa-tion will be provided, but it was not found in Appendix C.

Response: All necessary site-specific information required to perform l dose calculations has been provided in Appendix C. Exam-ple: Section C4.3.1 contains the method and site-specific information to calculate doses from liquid effluents. No action is planned.

Gaseous Dose Projection Comunenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Comment: Licensee has not specifically addressed (that) site-specific monthly dose projection (s). To (will) be used for gaseous radwaste treatment actions.

Response: Technical Specification 4.11.2.4.1 states that " Doses ...

shall be projected ... in accordance with ... the ODCM."

Section C4.1 of the ODCM states " Dose projections shall be performed using simplified dose estimates." No action is planned.

Comment: Licensee claimed in Section 3.2 that site-specific informa-tion will be provided, but it was not found in Appendix C.

Response: All necessary site-specific information required to perform dose calculations has been provided in Appendix C. Exam-ple: Section C4.3.2 contains the method and site-specific information to calculate doses from gaseous effluents. No action is planned.

Subject:

Page 3-7, Total Dose Commenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Comment: 1) Licensee should specifically address how total dose will be calculated with respect to 40 CRF 190 Require-ments, i.e., a method to sum up various doses calculated in (the) ODCM.

Response: Section C4.3 will be revised to provide this information.

2) A method to calculate direct dose should be provided.

Section 3.1.3 is not adequate to address the direct dose.

Response: Section 3.1.3 states that the point kernel method was used to calculate offsite dose rates. Since the calculated dose rates to an individual are negligible, 40.01 mrem /yr, Duke Power Company feels that it is unnecessary to provide these calculations in this document. Duke Power Company also feels that it is unnecessary to routinely re-calculate these doses unless warranted by a change in plant operating conditions. Additionally, this section has been previously approved by the Franklin Research

! Center and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for both our Oconee and McGuire plants. With this response, no action is planned.

Subject:

Interlaboratory Comparison Program Commenting Agency: Franklin Research Center Comment: Licensee has not provided a description on (the) Inter-laboratory Comparison Program as committed in the RETS submittal.  !-

Response: Section C5.0, page C-17, in the ODCM states that Duke Power Company participates in the Environmental Protection Agency's Environmental Radioactivity Laboratory Inter-comparison Studies (crosscheck) Program. Verbatim para- '-

graphs have been previously approved by the Franklin Research Center and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for both our Oconee and McGuire plants. As Duke Power Company feels that this section is still adequate, no action is planned.

Response: Figure C1.0-1 will be revised to provide this information.

Comment: 2) Indicate how flows from liquid radwaste, conventional waste water treatment, nuclear service water, and low pressure service water are monitored for flow, moni-tored or continuously sampled for radiation, and merged prior to discharge.

Response: Figure C1.0-1 will be revised to provide this information.

Comment: 3) Identify all environmental release points.

Response: Liquid effluent environmental release points are designated on Figure 5.1-3 of Catawba's Technical Specifications.

Duke Power Company feels that this would be a duplication of information already presented in a more tightly con-trolled document. With this explanation, no action is planned.

Response: Figure C1.0-2 will be revised to provide this information.

Comment: 2) Indicate where hydrogen and oxygen are monitored in the waste gas holdup system.

Response: Oxygen and hydrogen monitors are located upstream and downstream of the hydrogen recombiners. Since these monitors are not on an effluent stream and do not monitor radiation, Duke Power Company feels that they should not be presented in a document which deals with off-site doses.

Comment: 3) Indicate (the) location of flow and radiation monitors and continuous samplers and type of continuous samplers for effluents from the waste gas holdup, condenser evacuation, auxiliary building ventilation, fuel storage area ventilation, containment purge, contain-ment ventilation, and vent systems.

Response: EMF designations will be added to each of above locations.

Comment: Identify all environmental release points.

Response: Gaseous ef tluent environmental release points are designat-ed on Figure 5.1-4 of Catawba's Technical Specifications.

Duke Power Company feels that this would be a duplication of information already presented in a more tightly con-trolled document. With this explanation, no action is planned.

Subject:

Page C-4, Liquid Release Rate Calculations Commenting Agency: Nuclear Regulatory Commission Comment: Explain why simultaneous batch releases need not be consid-ered, or provide method for considering simultaneous batch releases.

Responce: Section 1.0, page 1-1, addresses the possibility of simul-taneous releases by stating that such releases could be administrative 1y controlled so that the limitations addres-sed on page til would not be exceeded. Duke Power Company has successfully used this type of control (via station procedures) at both its Oconee and ifcGuire plants. With this explanation, no action is planned.

Page C-7, Caseous Release Rate Information Commenting Agency: Nuclear Regulatory Commission Comment: Provide method for considering releases of radioactive  ;

materials from the steam generator blowdown vent.

Response An off-normal modo of operation is provided to accommodate '

situations when it is not possible to either vent the steam  :

! generator blowdown tank to the "D" heater or pump the '

! liquid to the condensate system. In this mode of opera-tion, the steam generator blowdown tank releases steam to l '

l the atmosphere while its liquid level is maintained by directing the pumped liquid to the Turbine Building sump.

Radioactivity Icvels in the Steam Generator Blowdown System are monitored for activity by EMF-34. If activity should l be detected, each blowdown flow control valve, the atmo-l spheric vent, and the valve to the Turbine Building Sump will close. Blowdown can only be continued by venting the  !

! steam to "D" heater and pumping the liquid to the conden-sate system. As a result, no gaseous radioactive m.iterials can be released via this pathway. With this explanation.

{ no action is planned.

Subject:

Page C-8, Liquid Radiation Monitor Setpoints Commenting Agency: Nucicar Regulatory Commission Comment: Address how simultaneous reicases from liquid radwaste and conventional waste water treatment will affect the setpoint of the radiation monitor for the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line.

Response: Section C2.1.2 states that if any of the conventional waste water treatment water sources become radioactive, they can be diverted to the Radwaste Treatment System and be dis-charged through the Liquid Radwaste Effluent Line.

Section 1.0, page 1-1, " Release Rate Calculations" addresses the possiblity of simultaneous releases, by stating that such releases could be administrative 1y controlled so that the limitations addressed on page 111 are not exceeded. Duke Power Company uses this same type of control (via station procedures) at both its Oconee and McGuire plants without any problems.

With this explanation, no action is planned.

Subject:

Page C-11, Gaseous Radiation Monitor Setpoints Commenting Agency: Nuclear Regulatory Commission Comment: 1) Provide basis for using f = 151,000 cfm Response: This is only a typical flowrate. Exact flowrates that will be used to calculate radiation monitor setpoints will be listed in station procedures. The wording associated with this 151,000 cfm flowrate, as well as this 28,000 cfm flowrate listed on page C-11, will be changed to clarify this item.

Comment: 2) Provide method fcr considering simultaneous releases.

Response: Section 1.0, page 1-1, addresses the possibility of simul-taneous releases by stating that such releases could be administratively controlled so that the limitations ad-dressed on page lii would be not be exceeded. Duke Power Company has successfully used this type of control (via Station Procedures) at both its Oconee and McGuire plants.

With this explanation, no action is planned. '

Comment: 3) Provide method for determining setpoints for the waste gas holdup system, containment purge, and containment ventilation monitors.

Response: The monitor setpoint calculations are fully described in Section C3.2, page C-10. No action is planned.

Comment: 4) Provide method for determining setpoints for the radiation monitor on the steam generator blowdown to terminate venting to the atmosphere through the Turbine Building vent.

Response: No gaseous radiation monitor on the steam generator blow-down vent is required by Catawba's Technical Specifica-tions, since this is not a gaseous effluent release point.

Therefore, no setpoint calculation is given. Picase see our response to your comment on page C-7, Gaseous Release Rate Calculations. No action is planned.

Subject:

Page C-4.0, Dose Calculation Commenting Agency: Nuclear Regulatory Commission l Comment: 1) Provide a numbered and captioned figure showing the site boundary and the unrestricted area boundary for gaseous and liquid effluents.

Response: This information is provided in Figures 5.1-3 and 5.1-4 of Catawba's Technical Specifications. This placement of information in the Technical Specifications has been previously approved by the Franklin Research Center and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission for both our Oconce and ticGuire plants. As Duke Power Company feels that this would a duplication of information already presented in a more tightly controlled document, no action is planned, i Comment: 2) The ODCt! should include a table that contains the following information for each sector: sector, the distance to the controlling receptor locaM on, the_

pathway of exposure, the age group, the X/Q and D/Q j values. I 1

Response: a. Sector information was inadvertently left off Figure (

C5.0-1. It will be added. J

b. The distance to the controlling receptor location is l listed in the Section of the ODCt! that bases its l calculations on this information, i.e., Section l C4.3.2.2, page C-15. Duplication of information is l unnecessary. No action is planned. l 1
c. Exposure pathway information is also listed in this manner, i.e., Section C4.3.2.2, page C-15. Again this would be a duplication of information and is unneces-sary. No action is planned.
d. Age group information has been provided in the assump-tion for each calculation where this information is used, i.e., Section C4.3.2.2, page C-15. Again this would be a duplication of information and is unneces- ,

exposure pathway and/or sample; (2) criteria for i selection of sample number and location; (3) sampling l and collecting frequency; (4) sample location number l (it should refer to a figure in the ODCH); (5) location (distance and direction); (6) type and frequency of analysis.

Response: a) Sample locations are provided in these tables, i.e.,

Table C5.0-2 states that sample location 213 is located 7.5 m ESE at the Fort Hill water supply. No action is planned, b) Exposure pathway and/or sample information is also provided on Table C5.0-2. With the exception of adding the column heading addressed elsewhere in these re-sponses, no action is planned.

c) Section C5.0, page C-16, states that the Radiation Environmental Monitoring Program shall be conducted in accordance with Technient Specification 3/4.12. The cr.teria for selection of sample number and location is based on this specification. With this explanation, no action is planned.

d) Sample locations are listed by number on Tables C5.0-1 and C5.0-2. These numbers correspond to Figure C5.0-1. I No action is planned.

e) Tables C5.0-1 and C5.0-2 do provide sampic location and distance information, i.e., Table C5.0-2 states that sample location 213 is 7.5m ESE at the Fort Hill supply. No action is planned.

f) Type and frequency of analysis has been provided in Table C5.0-3. No action is planned.

Comment: 2) A foldout figure is needed for Figure C5.0-1 (in order) to make it readable.

Response: Ten copies of a two-color 85 x 17 foldout were included with the ODCH submittal. Additional copies will be submit-ted with these responses.

Subject:

Page C5.0, Radiological Environmental Monitoring (Continued)

Cosament: 3) Presimably the methodology described in the ODCH will be impicmented via computer codes. The computer codes sho 1d be verified. After the codes are verified, pr ovide a reference (individual or company name, title

o. document, and date) in the ODCH to document the validation of the codes.

Responses As stated in the introduction to the ODCH, the programs "LADTAP" and "GASPAR", written and distributed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, will normally be used to determine done assessments. The method outlined in the ODCH is merely a hand calculational method to be used only when "LADTAP" and/or "0ASPAR" is unavailable. Ilowever, we do use our own computer programs to calculate release rates and prepare reports required by Regulatory Guioe 1.2.1.

The codes are benchmarked (verified by hand calculations) by Duke Power Company personnel prior to irrplementation.

Benchmarks are also audited by our QA department and documented. These records are available for NRC audit.

Therefore, as a result of our tight controls, Duke Power Company does not feel that this information need be duplicated in the ODCH.

TablesC4.01(X[Q)andC4.02(57Q)

Commenting Agency: Nuclear Regulatory Commission Comment: The XTQ and D76 values presented in these tables differ significant ly from those calculated by the staf f. For example, at 1.0 mi. In the north northeast sector. TC4.0-1 indicates a k/jLvalue of 2.6E-07, while the staff has calculated a D/Q value of 7.7E-06_at the same location.

Similarly, TC4.0-2 indicates a D/Q value of l.,7E-09 at 0.S mi. in the south sector, while the statf's D/Q value for this location is 7.2E 08. These large differences are probably attributab!c to characterization of the aerody-namics of the releases from the plant vents. The staff has assumed that these relcanes occur at ground level with ~

mixing in the turbulent wake of plant structures. TheX/4 and D/Q values presented in TC4.0 1 and TC4.0-2 are typical of those calculated for a mixed-mode releanc. The staff did not accept the rationale presented in the Section 2.3.5 of the FSAR for deviating from the H.0, 1.111 position that states "For effluents released from points less than the weight of adjacent solid structures, a ground-level release should be assumed." The top of the vent stacks et Catawba are about 4m below the top of the reactor building.

Another source of dif ference is adjustments to the straight-line airflow model to consider spatial and temporal varia-tions in airflow. Either provide revised tables of f/d and I174 values reflecting assumptions used by the staff, or 4

provide additional information (boyond that aircady re-viewed by the staff) to substitute the R/d and 07d values proposed in the ODCtt.

Nesponse Tables C4.0 1 and C4.0 2 have been revised using the computer program X0QIXX) (NUNE0/CR 2919) and all assumption outlined in NHC Hegulatory Guide 1.111 (USNHC, 1977).

C1.0 CATAWBA NUCLEAR STATION RADWASTE SYSTEMS

^

C1.1 LIQUID RADWASTE PROCESSING

-The liquid radwaste system at Catawba Nuclear Station (CNS) is used to collect

!and treat fluid chemical and radiochemical.by products of unit operation. The system produces efflucents which can be reused in the plant or discharged in small, dilute quantities to the environment. The means of treatment vary with waste type and desired product in the various systems:

A) Filtration - All waste sources are filtered during processing. In some

. cases, such as the Floor Drain Tank (FDT) Subsystem of the Liquid Waste (WL)-System, filtration may be the only treatment required.

B) Adsorption - Adsorption of halides and organic chemicals by activated charcoal (Carbon Filter) is used primarily in treating waste in the

. Laundry and Hot Shower Tank (LHST) Subsystem of the WL System. FDT waste may also.be treated by this method.

C) Ion Exchange - Ion exchange is used to remove radioactive cations from solution, as in the case of either LHST or FDT waste in the WL System

~ af ter removal of organics by carbon filtration (adsorption). Ion exchange-is also used in. removing both cations (cobalt, manganese) and anions (chloride, fluoride) from evaporator distillates in order to purify the distillates for reuse as makeup water. Distillate from the Waste' Evaporator in the WL System and the Boron Recycle Evaporator in the Boron Recycle System (NB)_can be treated by this method, as well as FDT, LHST waste, and letdown.

D). . Gas Stripping'- Removal of gaseous radioactive fission products is accomplished ~in both the WL Evaporator and the NB Evaporator.

E) Distillation - Production of pure water from the waste by boiling it

.away from the' contaminated solution which originally contained it is accomplished by both evaporators. Proper control of the process'will y yield water which can be reused for makeup. Polishing of this product can be achieved by ion exchange as pointed out above.

F) - Concentration.- In both the WL and NB Evaporators, dissolved chemicals are concentrated in the lower shell as water is boiled away. In the case of the WL Evaporator, the volume of water containing waste chemicals and radioactive-cations is reduced so that the waste may be more easily and cheaply solidified and shipped for burial. In the NB Evaporator, the dilute boron is concentrated to 4% so that it may be reused for makeup to the. reactor coolant. system.

C1.2 GASEOUS RADWASTE SYSTEMS The_ gaseous waste disposal system for Catawba is designed with the capability of processing the fission-product gases from contaminated reactor coolant fluids resulting from operation. The system shown schematically in Fig. C1.0-2 is_ designed to allow for the retention, through the plant lifetime, of all the gaseous fission products to be discharged from the reactor coolant system to the_ chemical and volume control system or the boron recycle system, to limit the need for intentional discharge of radioactive gases from the waste gas

' holdup tanks. Thus, the only unavoidable sources of low-level radioactive gaseous discharge to the environment will be from periodic purging operations of the containment, from the auxiliary building ventilation system, and through the secondary system air ejector. With respect to the.former, the potential contamination is expected to arise from uncollectable reactor coolant leakage.

With respect to the. air, ejector, the potential source of contamination will be from leakage of the reactor coolant to the secondary system through defects in steam generator tubes. The gaseous waste disposal system includes two waste gas compressors, two catalytic hydrogen recombiners, six gas decay storage tanks for use during normal power generation, and two gas decay storage tanks for use during shutdown and startup operations.

C 1. 2.' 1 Gas Collection System The gas collection system combines the waste' hydrogen and fission gases from the volume control' tanks and that from the boron recycle gas stripper evaporator produced during normal operation with the gas collected during the shutdown degasification (high percentage of nitrogen) and will cycle it through the catalytic recombiners to convert all the hydrogen to water. After the water vapor is removed, the resulting gas stream will be transferred from the recom--

biner.into the' gas decay tanks, where the accumulated activity may be contained

j. in six approximately equal parts. From the decay tanks the gas will flow back to the compressor suction-to complete the loop circuit.

C1.2.2 Containment and Auxiliary Building. Ventilation Nonrecyclable reactor coolant leakage _ occurring either inside the containment or inside the auxiliary building will generate gaseous activity. Gases result-ing from leakage inside the containment will be contained until the containment i air is released through the VQ or VP system. The containment atmosphere will j be discharged through a charcoal adsorber and a particulate filter prior to

!. release to the atmosphere.

Gases resulting from leakage inside the auxiliary building are released, with-out further decay, to the atmosphere via the auxiliary building ventilation

' system. The ventilation exhaust from potentially contaminated areas in the auxiliary building is normally unfiltered. .However, on a radiation monitor l ..

alarm, the exhaust is passed through charcoal adsorbers to reduce releases to the atmosphere.

C1.2.3 Secondary Systems Normally, condensate flow and steam generator blowdown will go parallel through 4 of the 5 condensate polishing demineralizers to remove activity and harmful ions from the water. Noncondensable gases will be taken from the i

!- C-2 L

e r.

secondary system by the condenser steam air ejector and are passed through a i

radiation monitor to the unit vent.

C2.0 RELEASE RATE CALCULATION Generic release rate calculations are presented in Section 1.0; these calculations will be used to calculate release rates for Catawba Nuclear Station.

C2.1 LIQUID RELEASE RATE CALCULATIONS There are two potential release points at Catawba. They are as follows:

1. -Liquid Waste Effluent Discharge Line
2. Conventional Waste Water Treatment System Effluent Line C2.1.1 Liquid Waste Effluent Discharge Line There are three low-pressure service water pumps with a minimum flow rate of 16,500.gpm each and four nuclear service water pumps with a minimum flow rate of 9,000 gpm each which provide the required dilution water needed for a release. The LPSW system flow rate monitor has a variable setpoint which term-

~ inates the release by closing the isolation valve, 1 WL124 should-the dilution flow fall below the setpoint. The following equation shall be used to calculate a discharge flow, in gpm.

C2.1.2 Conventional Waste Water Treatment System Effluent Line The conventional waste water treatment system effluent is normally considered nonradioactive; that is, it is unlikely the effluent will contain measurable

-activity above background. It is assumed that no activity is present in the effluent until indicated by radiation monitoring measurements and by periodic analyses of the composite sample collected on that line. The water sources listed below that are normally discharged via the conventional waste water treatment system and/or the Turbine Building Sump will be diverted if they become radioactive.

a. Containment Ventilation Unit Condensate Effluent Line Normally the containment ventilation unit condensate effluent line would discharge into the Turbine Building sump, but if radiation is detected above background, the discharge will be terminated and an alarm actuated.

The containment ventilation unit condensate tank will then be recirculated,. sampled and then discharged through the liquid waste effluent line and monitored or processed thru the WL system.

b. Auxiliary Feedwater Sump Pumps and Floor Drain Sump Pump Line Normally the discharge line coming from these sumps will discharge into the Turbine Building sump, but if radiation is detected above background, the discharge flow will automatically be routed to the floor drain tank for processing and later be discharged through the liquid waste effluent line.
c. Turbine Building Sump Discharge Line Normally the discharge from the Turbine Building sump will go into the conventional waste water treatment system, but if radiation is detected above background, the sump pumps A, B, and C will stop and an alarm actuated. The Turbine Building sump discharge line can either be routed to the floor drain tank for processing or routed directly to the liquid waste effluent discharge line.

C2.2 GASEOUS RELEASE RATE CALCULATIONS The unit vent is the release. point for waste gas decay tanks, containment air releases, the condenser air ejector, and auxiliary building ventilation. The condenser air ejector effluent is normally considered nonradioactive; that is, it is unlikely the effluent will contain measurable activ.ty above background.

It is assumed that no activity is present in the effluent until indicated by radiation monitoring measurements and/or by analyses of periodic samples collected on that line. -Radiation monitoring alarm / trip setpoints in con-

-junction with administrative controls assure that release limits are not exceeded; see section C.3.0 on radiation monitoring setpoints.

The following calculations, when solved for flowrate, are the release rates for nobic gases and for radioiodines, particulates and other radionuclides with half-lives greater than 8 days; the most conservative of release rates

- calculated in C2.2.1 and C2.2.2 shall control the release rate for a single release point.

C3.0 FADIATION MONITOR SETPOINTS Using the generic calculations presented in Section 2.0, radiation monitoring ,

setpoints are calculated for monitoring as required by the Technical Specifications. l All radiation monitors for Catawba are off-line except EMF-50 (Waste Gas 1 System) which is in-line. These monitors alarm on low flow; the minimum flow ,

alarm level for both the liquid monitors and the gas monitors is based on the manufacturer's recommendations. These monitors measure the activity in the

~

liquid or gas volume exposed to the detector and are independent of flow rate if a minimum flow rate is assured.

Radiation monitoring setpoints calculated in the.following sections are expressed in activity concentrations; in. reality the monitor readout is in counts per minute. The relationship between concentration and counts per minute is estab-lished by a station procedure using the following relationship:

  • 2.22 x 10 6e V

. where:

c = the gross activity, in pCi/ml

- r = the count rate, in cpm 2.22 x 108 = the disintegration per minute per pCi e = the counting efficiency, cpm /dpm V =~the volume of fluid exposed to the detector, in ml.

For those occurrences when simultaneous releases of radioactive material must be made, monitor.setpoints will be adjusted downward in accordance with Station Procedures:to insure that instantaneous concentrations will not be exceeded.

.C3.1 LIQUID RADIATION MONITORS C3.1.1 Waste Liquid Effluent Line .

As described in Section.C2.1.11on release rate calculations for the waste liquid effluent, the release is controlled by limiting the flow rate of effluent from the station. Although the release rate is flow rate controlled, the radiation monitor setpoint shall be set to terminate the release if the effluent activity should exceed.that determined by laboratory analyses and used to calculate the release rate. A typical radiation eonitor setpoint may be calculated as follows:

c $ " of $ 2.48E-05 pCi/ml where:

c = the gross activity in undiluted effluent, in pCi/ml f = the flow from the tank may vary from 0-100 gpm but, for this calculation, is assumed to be 100 gpm.

- ventilation unit condensate effluent,.it is possible but unlikely that the effluent'will.contain measurable activity above background. It is assumed that no activity is present in the effluent until indicated by radiation monitoring.

Since the tank contents are discharged automatically, the radiation monitor

- setpoint will be set at 1.0E-06 pCi/ml (the monitor's lowest level of detection) plus background to assure that release limits are not exceeded.

C3.1.3 Auxiliary Feedwater Sump Pumps and Floor Drain Sump Pump - EMF 52 As described in Section C2.1.2 on release rate calculations for the auxiliary feedwater sump pumps and floor drain sump pump effluents, it is possible but

.unlikely.that the effluents will.contain measurable activity above background.

ItLis assumed that no activity is present in the effluent until indicated by radiation monitoring. Since the sumps are discharged automatically, the

' ~

radiation monitor setpoint will be set at 1.0E-06 pCi/m1'(the monitor's lowest level-of detection) plus background to assure that release limits are not exceeded.

C3.1.4 . Turbine Building Sump Discharge Line - EHF 31 As described in Section C2.1.2 on release rate calculations for the turbine

. building sumps, it is possible but unlikely that the effluents will contain

Since the sump contents are discharged automatically, the radiation monitor setpoint will be set at 1.0E-06 pCi/ml (the monitor'n lowest level of detection) plus background to assure that release limits are not exceeded.

For releases from the containment purge ventilation system, a typical radiation-monitor setpoint may be calculated as follows:

Cg < 1.16/f = 6.5E-06 where:

C4.0 DOSE CALCULATIONS C4.1 FREQUENCY OF CALCULATIONS Lose contributions to the maximum exposed individual shall be calculated every 31 days, quarterly, semiannually, and annually (as reqaired by Technical Spec-ifications) using the methodology in the generic information sections. This methodology shall also be used for any special reports. Dose projections shall be performed using simplified estimates. Fuel cycle dose calculations shall be performed annually or as required by special reports. Dose contributions may be calculated using the methodology in the appropriate generic inforination sections.

C4.2 DOSE MODELS FOR MAXIMUM EXPOSED INDIVIDUAL C4.2.1 Liquid Effluents For dose contributions from liquid radioactive releases, one of the two following cases will apply:

1. If the radionuclides Co-58 and/or Co-60 have been detected and Cs-134 and/or Cs-137 have not been detected (i.e., plants without any fuel failure) dose calculations will be based upon an adult who consumed fish caught in the discharge canal and who drank water from the nearest " downstream" potable water intake. The dose from these two radionuclides has been calculated to be 13% of that individual's total body dose.
2. If the radionuclides Cs-134 and/or Cs-137 have been detected, doce calculations indicate that the maximum exposed individual would be an adult who consumed fish caught in the discharge canal and who drank water from the nearest " downstream" potabic water intake. The dose from these two radionuclides has been calculated to be 90% of that individual's total body dose.

C4.2.2 Gaseous Effluents C4.2.2.1 Noble Gases For dose contributions from exposure to beta and gamma radiation from noble gares, it is assumed that the maximum c:: posed individual is an adult on the site boundary in each meteorological sectors.

C4.2.2.2 Radioiodines, Particulates, and Other Radionuclides T 1/2 > 8 days For dose contributions from radiciodines, particulates and other radionuclides; it is assumed that the maximum exposed individual is an infant who breathes the air and consumes milk from the nearest goat or cow in each meteorological sector.

C5.0 Radiological Environmental Monitoring The Radiological Environmental Monitoring ."rogram shall be conducted in accordance with Technical Specification, Section 3/4.12.

The monitoring program locations and analyses are given in Tables C5.0-1 through C5.0-3 and Figure C5.0-1.

Site specific characteristics make groundwater sampling, special low-Icvel I-131 analyses on drinking water, and food product sampling unnecessary. Ground-water recharge is from precipitation and the groundwater gradient is toward the effluent discharge area; therefore, contamination of groundwater from liquid effluents is highly improbable. Special low-level I-131 analyses in drinking water will not be performed routinely since the expected I-131 dose from this pathway is less than 1 mrem / year. Food products will not be sampled since lakewater irrigation is not practiced in the vicinity.

The laboratory performing the radiological environmental analyses shall parti-cipate in an interlaboratory comparison program which has been approved by the NRC. This program is the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's)

Environmental Radioactivity Laboratory Intercomparsion Studies (crosscheck)

Program, our participation code is CP.

The dates of the land-use census that was used to identify the controlling receptor locations was 10/26/82 - 10/28/82. These dates will nat be changed ualess a subsequent census changes a controlling receptor's location.
