II. DETAILED INFORM ATION (CONT'D)

D. Measurements and Approximations of Total Activity The following discussion details the methods used to measure and approximate i total activity for the following:

1

1. Fissionand ActivationGases 3. Particulates
2. Radiciodines 4. Liquid Effluents Tables 1D and 2C give sampling frequencies and muumum detectable sensitivity requirements for the analysis of gaseous and liquid effluent streams, respectively.

Values in the attached tables given as zero do not necessarily imply that the radionuclides were not present. A zero indicates that the radionuclide was not present at levels greater than the sensitivity requirements shown in Tables 1D and 2C. For some radionuclides, lower detection limits than required may be readily achievable; when a radionuclide is measured below its stated detection limits, it is reported.

l 1. For Fission and Activation Gases The following noble gases are considered in evaluating gaseous airborne discharges:

Ar-41 Xe-131m Kr-85m Xe-133 l Kr-85 Xe-133m Kr-87 Xe-135m Kr-88 Xe-135 Kr-89 Xe-138 Periodic grab samples from Station effluent streams are analyzed by a computerized pulse height analyzer system utilizing high-resolution i germanium detectors. (See Table ID for sampling and analytical requirements.) Isotopic values thus obtained are used for dose release rate calculations due to effluent releases as given in Section II.A.1. of this report.

l Only those radionuclides that are detected are used in this computation.

During the period between grab samples, the amount of radioactivity released

, is based on the effluent monitor readings. Monitors are assigned a calibration l factor based upon the last isotopic analysis, using the following relationship:

i I

t Ame4er/4RERR69 e

--- -- . -. - - -. _ - . - ~ ... . . - -

l l

II. DETAILED INFORMATION (CONT'D)

C; = U; + m where C; = isotopic calibration factor for isotope i U; = concentration of isotope i in the grab sample in pCi/ml.

i i

m = net monitor reading associated with the effluent stream

(determined at the time of grab sampling).

1

\

l These calibration factors, along with the hourly effluent monitor values and flow rates, are entered into the laboratory computer where the release rates for individual radionuclides are calculated and stored. If no activity is detected in the grab sample, the calibration factor defaults to a historical mixture of Kr-88, Xe-133, Xe-135m, Xe-135, and Xe-138.

1

2. For Particulates and Radioiodines The radiciodines and radioactive materials in particulate form to be  !

considered are:

Zn-65 I-133 Cr-51 Cs-134 Mn-54 Cs-136 Fe-59 Cs-137 Co-58 Ba-140 Co-60 Ce-141 Sr-89 Ce-144 Sr-90 Zr-95 Sb-124 I-131 Other radionuclides with half lives greater than 8 days.

3. For Continuous Releases Continuous sampling is performed on the continuous release points (i.e.,

Offgas/Radwaste Building Vent, Containment Purge, Fuel Handling Area Vent, Turbine Building Vent). Particulate materialis collected by filtration.

Radiciodines are collected by adsorption onto a charcoal filter. Periodically these filters are removed and analyzed on the pulse height analyzer to identify and quantify radioactive materials collected on the filters. Particulate filters are then analyzed for gross alpha and Strontium-89 and -90 as required. Gross alpha determinations are made using 2 pi gas flow proportional counter.

Strontium-89 and -90 values are obtained by chemical separation and subsequent analysis using liquid scintillation techniques. Tritium tharr/ARfAR1110 r

II. DETAILED INFORMATION (CONT'D) j concentrations are determined using distillation and liquid scintillation techniques. During major operational occurrences, the frequency of sampling is increased to satisfy the requirements of footnote "c" of Table ID, 1
" Radioactive Gaseous Waste Sampling and Analysis," (GGNS ODCM Appendix A, Table 4.11.2.1.2-1 [6.11.4-1]. Currently, Strontium analysis is performed by a qualified contract laboratory.

, Appendix A of Regulatory Guide 1.21 states "In estimating releases for periods when analyses were not performed, the average of the two adjacent data points spanning this period should be used."

In addition to releases from routine gaseous release points, three additional planned releases occurred. Two were from the Turbine Building smoke exhaust hatches: to remove paint fumes -(June), and during repair to the hatch latching mechanism - (September). The third was from the exhaust of a temporary laundry facility which operated during Refueling Outage 7 (April-June). Each of the planned releases was evaluated as a ground level release and documented. None had a significant effect on the total release from the site.

4. For Batch Releases: Gases The processing of batch type releases (from Containment Purge) is analogous to that for continuous releases. j 1
5. For Batch Releases: Liquid Effluents l

The radionuclides listed below are considered when evaluating liquid effluents:

H-3 Mo-99 Co-58 Tc-99m Co-60 I-131 Fe-55 I-132 Fe-59 I-133 Zn-65 I-135 Mn-54 Cs-134 Cr-51 Cs-137 Sr-89 Ba-140 Sr-90 La-140

Nb-95 Ce-141 Zr-95 Ce-144 Representative pre-release grab samples are obtained and analyzed as required by Table 2C. Isotopic analyses are performed using the computerized pulse height analysis system previously described. Aliquots of each pre-released sample, proportional to the waste volume released, are composited in accordance with the requirements of Table 2C. Strontium-89, 90 and Iron-55 values are obtained by chemical separation and counting the dree ar/ARERREf t r

Three additional releases occurred (one in March, two in August) due to unknown cause(s). In September, a weakened hatch latch was repaired. No additional releases have occurred since September. Each of the unplanned releases was evaluated as a ground level release and documented.

None had a significant effect on the total release from the site.

Sampling errors include uncertainty associated with mixing, representative i

sampling and discharge volume. Measurement errors include uncertainty

! associated with instrument calibration and the preparation and counting of low-activity samples. Counting errors are based on measurements of blank l samples and, for germanium detectors, the least-readily-detectable radioisotope. Calibration errors are calculated by summmg the errors associated with the calibration of a particular instrument with a radioactive source.

III. RADIATION DOSE

SUMMARY

Indicated below is the annual summary of offsite doses attributable to GGNS during 1994.

Inspection of the values indicate that GGNS releases were within the 10CFR50, Appendix I design objectives.

Since there are no other fuel cycle facilities within 8 km of GGNS,40CFR190 limits have also been met during this period.

All parameters listed were calculated in accordance with the GGNS ODCM.

A. Water-Related Exposure Pathways The values calculated in this section utilize the information provided in Tables 2A and 2B of this report and the calculational methodology of the ODCM.

Liquid Effluents Total body dose and critical organ doses are computed for the maximum exposed individual. The maximum dose contribution from liquid effluents is considered to occur in the adult age group via consumption of fish.

j B. Airborne-Related Exposure Pathways i

The values presented in this section utilize information provided in Tables 1 A and l 1C of this report and the calculational methodology of the ODCM. Dose and dose j rates are computed for locations at the site boundary or at unrestricted areas beyond l the site boundary. Because members of the public may, on occasion, be found l within the site boundary, locations within the site boundary were considered when

! selecting locations for dose calculations.

1 l Consideration of site boundary locations as well as unrestricted areas within and

( beyond the site boundary provides assurance that offsite doses will not be substantially underestimated while attempting to provide an accurate dose i

calculation. l 4

The most limiting location for a member of the public is used for the dose calculations.

Particulate, Radiciodine and Tritium I

Organ dose rate from exposure to radiciodines, tritium and particulates are computed for an individual located at the site boundary.

Organ dose from exposure to radiciodines, tritium and particulates are computed for an individual located in the southwest sector at a distance of 0.89 miles. This location corresponds to a residence beyond the site boundary. Pathways considered for use in the organ dose calculations are inhalation, ground plane, grass / cow / meat and vegetation. There is no grass / cow / milk pathway within five miles of GGNS.

Dose factors for the age group receiving the maximum dose are used in the calculation of organ dose and dose rate.

1 IIL RADI ATION DOSE

SUMMARY

(CONT'D)

Noble Gases Gamma and beta air dose and individual total body and skin dose rates from j exposure to a semi-infinite, cloud of noble gas are computed for a location in the i

southwest sector at a distance of 0.85 miles. This location corresponds to the highest annual average atmospheric dispersion for a location at the site boundary.

The total body and skin dose rates reported are the quarterly average of the maximum instantaneous dose rates determined daily during the reporting period and would represent the maximum possible dose received by members of the public.

Direct Radiation 1

i Direct radiation dose is calculated by subtracting average doses measured by thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) badges located at control locations from-average doses measured by TLD badges located near the site boundary.
