TTELEDYNE ' ISOTOPES . DESCRIPTION OF THE OPERATIONAL PROGRAM 9 THE' RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAM i The description 'of the operational radiological environmental anal-4 ysis program is presented in this section. Personnel of VEPC0 collect 4 the samples specified in Table 1 and ship them to Teledyne Isotopes for i the analytical phase of the program. Interim data reports are submitted ' by Teledyne Isotopes-as the analyses are completed, normally within 33 days of the 'date of receipt of samples (Ref. 9). Summary reports are is-sued quarterly by Teledyne Isotopes, usually within 45 days after the end of the) quarter.- The quarterly reports will be appended to this report and will contain (1) computer compilations of the analytical data from the interim data reports, -(2) . summaries of the environmental radiological analysis for each media listing ~ the mean and range of detected radio-nuclides and the ratio of detected radionuclides to total measurements, 4 (3) data interpretations for each media and analysis based on the summary table prepared in accordance with Regulatory Guide 4.8 (Ref.1). ( The radiological environmental program outlined in Table I contains the' technical- specification requirements for the North Anna Power Station (Ref.7).

                                ' Sampling station identifications and relative positions to the ef-fluent release point'are listed in Table 2 (Ref. 8) and shown on Figure
              ,         1 and' Figure 2 (maps indicating the environmental sampling stations).

Two procedures are used for the analysis-of charcoal cartridges for iodine-131. METHOD 1. -If the charcoal used is NOT impregnated with elemental-i iodine,: iodide carrier is added and leached with NaOH. The stable iodide and I-131 is then stripped and extracted as iodine and precipitated as PdI2 ' mounted 'on a nylon planchet, and assayed by low level beta counting. ! METHOD 2. -If the charcoal used in the filters is impregnated with iodine,,the chemical yield of the distillation procedure cannot be. determined

                 - and the samples are analyzed by high resolution gamma spectrometry -(Ge(Li)) by
