NUREG-0472, Revision 3, entitled " Standard Radiological Effluent Tech-nical Specifications for Pressurized Water Reactors" provides guidance for the preparation of Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications. NUREG-0472 reconinends that both gaseous and liquid effluent treatment systems be operated to reduce radioactive materials in gaseous and liquid waste prior to their discharge when projected doses will exceed 1/48 of the annual limit. The 1/48 limit operating requirement is recommended in the absence of a cost-benefit analysis.
The purpose of this analysi- is to determine cost effective operation criteria for the PBNP effluent treatment systems. The effluent treatment systems at PBNP are required to be operated to ensure compliance with 10 CFR 50 Appendix I dose limits. The need to operate effluent systems at levels which will reduce offsite doses to values less than the Appendix I limits will be determined by an assessment of the cost of operation and the corre- i sponding dose savings to the population residing within 50 miles of PBNP.
Processing of effluents is not considered cost effective if the cost to process exceeds $1,000 per each man-rem or thyroid-rem saved.
Processing of gaseous effluents is accomplished at PBNP by the gaseous radioactive treatment system which includes the gas decay tanh and the various ventilation exhaust filtration systems. FSAR Figure 12-3 depicts the ventilation exhaust filtration systems. Gaseous effluents are routinely processed through the drumming area ventilation exhaust filter assembly, Units 1 and 2 containment purge exhaust filter assemblies, auxiliary building ventilation HEPA filters, chemistry laboratory, and service building venti- -
lation filter assemblies prior to discharge to the environment. We have determined at this time that it is cost effective to operate these filtra-tion devices continuously. The proposed PBNP RETS specifies that the above mentioned filtration systems will be used to reduce radioactive materials in gaseous effluents prior to discharge to the environment. The specification provides a contingency in the unlikely event of the inoperability of these i filtration units. ,
Both the auxiliary building ventilation exhaust charcoal filter and the air ejector duct charcoal filter may be optionally utilized. Our cost analysis has determined that the operation of these two charcoal filters would cost in excess of $1,000 per thyroid-rem saved. The pr> posed RETS exempts these charcoal filter units from continuous operation. The auxiliary building ventilation exhaust charcoal filter and the air ejector r
decay duct charcoal filter will only be required to bc tperated when neces-sary to maintain radioiodine releases within the Appendix I dose limits.
The PBNP gas decay tanks are utilized to reduce radioactive gaseous effluents by collecting primary coolant system off gases and providing for delay or holdup for the purpose of reducing the total radioactivity prior to release to the environment. Noble gas releases are made in batch mode from the decay tanks. The gas decay tanks are to be operated when required to
~
maintain gaseous releases within the Appendix I whole body dose limits. To ascertain the cost effectiveness of the operation of the gas decay tanks at levels which will result in dose rates less than the Appendix ! limits, the cost per man-rem savings is calculated.
The major contribution to gas decay tanks is cover gas displaced by letdown to CVCS holdup tanks. Other contributions include the purging of the volume control tanks for nitrogen reduction. The cover gas displaced by filling tanks is compressed and stored in the gas decay tanks. Cover gases purged to the gas decay tanks have normally decayed for several days during holdup ist the volume control or CVCS holdup tanks. The gas collected in the gas decay tanks is reused as cover gas when tanks are drained by processing or transfer of liquids. The existing specification requiring a minimum hold-up time in the gas decay tanks of seven days is unnecessary and will be eliminated. There is no need for the seven-day holdup requirement since gaseous effluent releases are not permitted to exceed the radioactive limits specified by RETS and Appenoix I criteria. Batch releases will be made from the gas decay tanks after appropriate holdup times as determined from analyses of the tank contents. '
The PBNP FSAR Appendix I Analysis theoretically determined the amount of noble gas expected to be released and the related maximum annual offsite dose cate assuming 0.12% failed fuel rate and full operation of the gaseous radwaste treatment system. The Appendix I analysis is the basis for determining whole body population doses resulting from the release of noble gases. Population dose calculations are summarized in the attached Appendix A. Assuming full operation of the gaseous effluent treatment a a total of 2.81E+03 Equivalent Curies of Xe-133 is determined to be released annually. This results in a maximum offsite whole body dose rate 2.7E-02 mrem per year. The number of Equivalent Curies of Xe-133 pennitted to be released is determined by scaling the calculated maximum dose rate up to the Appendix I dose limit of 10 mrem per year. With a scaling factor of 370, the calculated Appendix I release limit is therefore 1.04E+06 Equivalent
F i Curies of Xe-133. That quantity released in a year would result in a maximum dose rate of 10 mrem. The Curies expected to be released at full l operation of the gaseous treatment system and the Appendix I release limit are therefore established as 2.81E+03 and 1.04E+06 Equivalent Curies of ,
Xe-133 respectively. !
As summarized in Appendix A, the population dose estimated for ]l the release of 2.81E+03 Xe-133 Equivalent Curies is 2.94E-02 man-rem.
The population dose estimated for the release of the Appendix I limit of l 1.04E+06 Xe-133 equivalent curies is 1.09E+01 man-rem. Therefore a popula-tion dose of 1.08E+01 man-rem may be saved if the system is operated full- ,
time instead of at a level to achieve Appendix I objectives. g To ascertain the cost effectiveness of operating the gas decay tanks at levels necessary to achieve releases less than the Appendix I limit, the cost of operation is compared with the possible population dose savings. Attached Appendix B summarizes the cost associated with the full operation of the gas decay tank system. The cost is estimated as
$33,975. To determine the fraction of operation required to accomplish Appendix I limits it is necessary to evaluate the quantity of radioactivity expected to be released if no processing occurs. Utilizing the letdown rate assumptions in the Appendix I analysis and assuming all noble gases are stripped or removed from primary letdown, the total equivalent curies of Xe-133 estimated to be released if no processing occurs is 1.83E+06. A release of 1.04E+06 Xe-133 Equivalent Curies corresponds to operation at the Appendix I limits and represents an operation level of 43%. The cost to operate at the Appendix I level is 43% of the full operation cost or $14,609.
Therefore, the difference in cost between operation at Appendix I limits and full operation is $19,366.
The cost per man-rem to operate the gas decay tanks more than required to meet Appendix I limits is calculated as $19,366 divided by 1.08E+01 man-rem, the total dose between Appendix I and full operation.
Hence, the cost of operation is $1,783 per man-rem, and it is concluded that operation in excess of that required to meet the Appendix I limits is not cost effective. The cost analysis calculations are detailed in attached Appendix C. Therefore, the gas decay tanks need only be utilized to reduce radioactive materials in gaseous. effluents whenever noble gas effluents require treatment to meet the Appendix I release limits.
Processing of liquid effluents is accomplished at PBNP by the liquid effluent treatment system which, for purposes of this analysis, j includes the blowdown and waste evaporators, polishing demineralizers, boric acid evaporator feed demineralizers, the boric acid evaporator, and the boric acid evaporator condensate demineralizers. The Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS) holdup tanks are shared between Units 1 and Unit 2 and collect reactor coolant letdown for boron control and other miscellaneous reactor coolant drains. These liquids are then processed by the boron recovery portion of the CVCS. Boric acid evaporator condensate is released to the circulating water discharge or recycled to the makeup water storage tank. Although the CVCS is utilized to reduce radioactive effluent discharges, the primary objective of the processing system is to recover boron. The financial benefit of recovering the boron outweighs any cost advantages that may be achieved by partial operation of the system. Hence, a radwaste cost-benefit analysis was not performed for the CVCS. The proposed PBNP RETS specify that the boric acid feed demineralizers, the boric acid evapor-ator, and the boric acid evaporator condensate demineralizers be operated to reduce radioactive material in liquids collected in the CVCS holdup tanks prior to release. The proposed specification includes a contingency for system inoperability and an exemption from required processing of CVCS holdup tank contents under certain conditions.
Figure I.2-2 of the FSAR depicts components utilized to process steam generator blowdown and primary side liquid wastes. A cost-benefit analysis was performed'for this system to determine if it is cost effective to process liquid wastes associated with this process pathway beyond that required to meet Appendix I limits.
l The PBNP FSAR Appendix I analysis serves as the basis for deter-mining population doses. Population doses resulting from liquid releases i
are summarized in Appendix A. The FSAR Appendix I analysis theoretically l determined the amount of radioactivity expected to be released from PBNP assuming full operation of the liquid radioactive effluent treatment system.
l Assuming full operation of the treatment system a total of 8.29E-01 Equivalent Curies of I-131 would be released resulting in a population dose of 2.49E+00 l
thyroid-rem. The Equivalent Curies of Co-60 released are calculated to be 2.97E+00. Using a scaling approach similar to that described for gaseous i
effluents, the Appendix I release limits and population doses can be deter-mined for liquid releases. The scaling factor is 31.6 for both particulates and iodines.
The total population doses saved by full operation of the waste systems versus operation at the Appendix I limits are 6.48E+00 man-rem and 7.62E+01 thyroid-rem, a dose savings of 8.27E+01 man-rem.

The total estimated cost to process all steam generator blowdown i and primary side waste is $1,356,775. The cost estimate is summarized in Appendix B. To determine the fraction of full operation required to meet Appendix I limits, it was necessary to determine the quantity of radioacti-vity which would be released if no processing of blowdown or primary side collected waste occurred prior to discharge. This quantity is calculated using the DF values for system components in this process system as listed in the FSAR. The total combined I-131 and Co-60 Equivalent Curies expected to be released with no processing is 3.59E+02. To meet Appendix I limits, releases must be restricted to a combined total 9.47E+01 Co-60 Equivalent Curies and 2.62E+01 I-131 Equivalent Curies. Operation of the system at the Appendix I limits represents an operation level of 67%. The cost to operate at the Appendix I limit is 67% of $1,356,775 or $909,000. The cost differ-ence between operation at Appendix I limits and full operation is therefore
$447,735.
l The cost per rem saved to operate the liquid waste system in )
excess of that required to meet Appendix I limits is $447,735 divided by l 8.27E+01 rem or $5,413 per man-rem. Therefore, operation of the blowdown or.
waste evaporator and the polishing demineralizers in excess of Appendix I limits is not cost effective. The cost analysis calculations are detailed in Appendix C. Accordingly, the proposed PBNP RETS specify that steam generator blowdown and liquid wastes collected in the waste holdup tank need only be processed to reduce radioactive effluents when required to maintain releases within the Appendix I dose limits.
Secondary side sampling and turbine building wastes are presently routed through the retention pond prior to release to Lake Michigan. The retention pond provides an estimated thirty day holdup period, she quantity of radioactivity estimated to be released from PBNP through this pathway is less than 0.001% of the total annual liquid releases as depicted ir FSAR Table I.7-3. Because of the minute release quantities and minimum decay to those isotopes of dose significance, an insignificant population dose savings is achieved by utilization of the retention pond. The only isotope of any potential significance released via.this pathway is I-131. It is calculated that the elimination of the thirty day retention period provided by'the retention pond would increase the population dose by approximately 0.010 thyroid-rem per year and have an insignificant change on the maximum dose received by any offsite individual. Periodic dredging costs are about
$24,000 every 8 years or about $3,000/ year; hence the cost-benefit is about s I
r
$3,000/0.010 = $300,000 per thyroid-rem. Because the elimination of the retention pond would not compromise PBNP's ability to comply with Appendix I limits and would not significantly increase population-doses, the retention pond need not be utilized.
Although most liquid wastes collected at PBNP are processed to reduce radioactive material in effluents prior to release, there has been and will continue to be a need to infrequently discharge collected wastes without processing. Batch tank releases are made under controlled condi-tions without processing under conditions where the processing of the tank contents would prevent plant operation or delay plant start-up or shutdown.
Batch releases have also been made when the release was necessary to conform to Technical Specifications operation requirements or to eliminate a chemical contaminant to satisfy chemistry specifications. In 1984 the contents of a CVCS holdup tank or a boric acid storage tank war eleased without processing on five occasions. The maximum population dose resulting from any of these tank releases was approximately 0.011 man-rem whole body dose and 0.001 thyroid-rem. Although we have not exactly quantified actual costs including lost generation costs which would have been involved with the processing of this waste, based on the minimal resulting doses, the tank discharges were clearly cost effective. The contents of a reactor refueling water storage tank were also discharged in 1984 without processing. The discharge resulted in an estimated population dose of 330 man-mrem. Prior to discharge the cost of processing and solidification of this waste was estimated at $175,000.
Processing would have also again delayed plant startup resulting in lost electrical generation and associated costs. Again the discharge was cost effective.
- The PBNP RETS include a provision to permit the infrequent dis-l charge of unprocessed liquid wastes from various tanks under conditions where the processing of the waste would prevent plant operation or delay I
plant startup or shutdown, or where the release was necessary to conform to Technical Specification requirements, or where the release was necessary to #
eliminate a chemical contaminant. The proposed RETS specifies that tank l batch releases may be made 'for any other reason provided a specific cost-benefit analysis is performed.

CALCULATION OF POPULATION DOSE COMMITMENTS Appendix I to 10 CFR 50 sets forth numerical guidelines for design objectives for the release of radioactive materials from light water reactors. '
Appendix I of the PBNP FSAR contains information utilized to evaluate compliance with the guidelines of 10 CFR 50. Cumulative population man-rem exposure and thyroid-rem exposures are calculated from data provided in i Appendix ! of the PBNP FSAR.
POPULATION DOSES FROM LIOUID EFFLUENTS Primary _ coolant and secondary side liquid and steam source terms
.and the resulting radioactive releases were calculated using the basic 4
assumptions and approaches recommended by NRC in Regulatory Guide 1.112.
Table I.7-2 of the FSAR lists the total liquid radioactive releases expected per year from the Point Beach Nuclear Plant. These releases were calculated assuming provisions for processing of all radioactive-liquid waste prior to release to the environment. The listed released activities will result from full operation of processing equipment. Table I.7-3 lists calculated annual liquid releases from PBNP by source.
Tables I.8-6 thru I.8-9 of the FSAR list annual doses to the maximum offsite individual in each of four age groups. These doses will result from the release of the quantity of radioactivity listed in Table I.7-2. The doses were calculated in accordance with parameters and assump-tions of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109. Exposure pathways considered ' include ingestion of potable water, ingestion of fish, ingestion of fresh and stored vegetables irrigated by the potable water from Lake Michigan, ingestion of i
cows milk, and ingestion of meat produced from animals consuming potable water.
Four potable water sources are affected by liquid effluent releases .
from PBNP. The Green Bay water intake is located approximately 13 miles north of the plant. The Two Rivers Water intake is located 12 miles south of the plant, the Manitowoc water intake is located 13 miles south of the plant and
- the Sheboygan water intake is located 40 miles south of the plant. Dilution factors for the Green Bay, Two Rivers, and Manitowoc intakes are approximately -

O equal. Doses listed in Tables I.8-6 thru I.8-9 were calculated for Two Rivers potable water; however the calculated ingestion doses would also be applicable to any individual using Green Bay or Manitowoc potable water.
The dilution factor for the Sheboygan potable water source 1.s calculated to be 150 using the hydrological model of Section I.8-5 of the FSAR. The maximum annual dose for individuals using the Sheboygan potable water is therefore 67%.of those listed for Two Rivers.
The total population served by the four potable water supplies are as follows:
Two Rivers 13,350 Manitowoc 32,500 Green Bay 87,900 Sheboygan 54,950 The age distribution of the population is assumed to be as follows:
Adults 71%
Teenager 11%
Child 16%
Infant 2%
The annual doses listed in Tables I 8-6 thru I.8-9 were derived utilizing maximum consumption as usage factors. Population doses are calcu-lated assuming average usage factors. The annual doses listed in Tables I.8-6 thru I.8-9 are corrected for average usage factors.
Integrated total body and thyroid doses to the population utilizing potable water sources within 50 miles of Point Beach Nuclear Plant are cal-culated for each pathway as follows: '

Values are Listed in FSAR Appendix I Tables I.8-6 thru I.8-9, UgVE = usage factor correction, MAX Ua Uh = usage or consumption factor for average individual for age group a, U = usage or consumption factor for maximum individual for age group a. These values were used to derive Appendix I doses, and DFC d = Dilution Factor Correction. For Green Bay, Two Rivers, and Manitowoc DFC = 1. for Sheboygan DFC = 0.66.
Population total body and thyroid doses from liquid releases via potable water, ingestion of stored and fresh vegetables, ingestion of cow's milk, and ingestion of meat pathways are listed in attached Tables 1 thru 8.
The edible harvest of both sport and commercial fish is estimated as 6.74E+04 Kilograms per year as described in the PBNP FES. The entire edible fish harvest is conservatively assumed to be ingested by the population with-in 50 miles. It is assumed that of the total harvest, 4.78E+04 Kg are con-sumed by adults, 7.41E+03 Kg are consumed by teenagers, and 1.25E+04 Kg are consumed by children. The annual doses listed in FSAR Tables I.8-6 thru I.8-8 assume fish consumption rates of 21,16, and 6.9 kilograms per g year for an adult, teen and child respectively. The Appendix I calculated doses assume all fish are caught at the edge of the initial mixing zone. A c mixing zone dilution factor of 5 was used for Appendix I calculations. For purposes of estimating population doses a dilution factor of 50 is assumed.
Thyroid and whole body population doses from ingestion of fish are calculated as follows for each age group: ~

MAX D D x 5 x edible ja = consumption IRi harvest rate consumption where MAX D = annual dose reported in FSAR Tables I.8-6 thru I.8-9 for ingestion of fish, Consumption rate = consumption data used for Appendix I calculation; ie 21 Kg for adult,16 Kg for teenager and 6.9 Kg for children, 5/50 = correction to mixing zone dilution factor. Appendix I doses assumed dilution factor of 5. All fish are not caught at edge of initial mixing' zone therefore dilution correction is made, and edible harvest = kilograms of fish consumed consumption Thyroid and whole body doses resulting from ingestion of fish are listed in Tables 9 and 10.
The annual total population doses from all pathways from liquid releases are listed in Table 11. These doses would be expected from 0.12%
fuel failure and full operation of-all liquid radwaste processing equipment.
The total whole body dose is 2.12E-01 man-rem. The total thyroid dose is 2.49E+00 thyroid-rem.
l The thyroid population dose of 2.49E+00 thyroid-rem results from
-liquid effluent release quantities of 8.29E-01 Equivalent Curies of Iodine-131.
Release limits are defined by scaling the calculated releases upward to the point at which corresponding doses reach the applicable limit specified in l
Appendix I of 10 CFR 50. The FSAR calculated maximum dose rate resulting ,
from liquid effluents is 1.90E-01 mrem / year. The 10 CFR 50 Appendix I limit is 6 mrem / year. Therefore the FSAR release values may be scaled upward by a i l- factor of 31.6 to derive the Appendix I release limit. These values are summarized below.

These releases were calculated assuming the processing of all gaseous effluents prior to release to the environment. The listed releases will result from utilization of the gas decay system and waste path HEPA and charcoal filters.
The annual dose to a maximum individual from noble gases in gaseous effluents is 2.7E-02' mrem / year as listed in FSAR Table I.8-5. This maximum dose will occur at 1460 meters from PBNP in the SSW section. The maximum dose is calculated assuming 100% occupancy and no structural shielding.
For purposes of population exposure calculations a structural shielding and j occupancy factor of 0.5 is applied. Therefore the maximum dose is adjusted to 1.35E-02 mrem / year. This dose will result from noble gas release totals (
j in FSAR Table I.7-1.
i The individual dose expected in each subregion may be estimated by the following equation:
f Dosej = 1.35E-02 x X/Q3 X/QMAX where Dosej = Average dose rate in subregion; mrem / year 1.35E-02 = Maximum dose from noble gas releases; SSW at 1460 Meters X/Q = X/Q in subregion j 3
X/QMAX = X/Q in sector SSW at 1460 meters The X/Q values will differ for each subregion depending on the ,
release mode and release elevation. This analysis utilized X/Q values generated from the average of the three most prominent release modes and pathways. The X/Q values were calculated by averaging values from FSAR Tables I.4-4, I.4-8, I.4-10. The annual average X/Q values are listed in Table 12.
Table 13 lists fractional values derived by dividing each subregion X/Q value by the maximum X/Q value. These fractions are multiplied by the maximum annual dose of 1.35E-02 rem / year to derive the individual annual dose in each subregion. The subregion annual individual dose is multiplied by the subregion population to achieve the subregion population dose.
Subregion populations are listed in Table 15. Total population doses resulting from noble gas releases are listed in Table 16.
The total whole body dose resulting from noble gases released in quantities listed in FSAR Table I.7-1 is 2.94E-02 man-rem. The 2.94E-02 person man-rem results from a noble gas release quantity of 2.81E+03 Equiva-lent Curies of Xe-133. Release limits are defined by scaling the calculated l
releases upward to the point at which corresponding doses reach the applicable l
limit specified in Appendix I to 10 CFR 50. The FSAR calculated maximum annual dose rate is 2.70E-02. The Appendix I annual dose limit is 10 mrem / year.
l Therefore the FSAR release values may be scaled upward by a factor of 370 to
( determine Appendix I limits.
These values are summarized below: y l Total i

The maximum annual thyroid dose to an offsite individual from radiciodine in gaseous effluents is 1.50E+01 mrem / year as listed in the FSAR Table I.8-4. Thyroid doses result from the deposition of the radio-iodine and subsequent ingestion of milk, and fresh and stored vegetables.
In all of the four age groups the ingestion of milk is the principle contribution to dose. The maximum thyroid dose will occur to an infant as the result of milk ingestion. This dose will result from annual anti-cipated release quantities as listed in FSAR Table 1.7-1.
~
Population Thyroid exposures are estimated by assuming that the inhabitants of each sector consumes vegetation grown and milk produced within the sector they reside. The maximum dose occurs to an individual residing at the site boundary in the SSE sector. Thyroid doses for individuals residing in.each sector out to 50 miles from the plant are estimated by D/Q value ratios. Table 17 list ratios derived by dividing each subregion D/Q by the maximum D/Q value at the site boundary in the SSE sector. The D/Q values are from FSAR Table.
The population thyroid doses are calculated for each sector from the following equation:
Thyroid Thyroid Dose rate Population Dose to = D/Qsubregion x for average x in subregion subregion D/Q SSE I"d* I" SSE Sector Maximum consumption factors from table E-5 'of Regulatory Guide 1.109 were used to calcula h the FSAR derived doses. The maximum thyroid doses listed in FSAR Tables I.8- thru I.8-4 were corrected for average consumption factors. Since in all four age groups milk ingestion is the principle dose contributor, the doses were adjusted by utilizing the ratio of average milk consumption factor and the maximum milk consumption factor. Average consump-tion factors were derived from Table E-4 of Regulatory Guide 1.109. The age distribution of the population was that recommended by Regulatory Guide 1.109.
Population thyroid doses by subregion are listed in Table 18. The total estimated population thyroid dose resulting from an annual release of 1.71E-01 Equivalent Curies of I-131, the FSAR estimate, is 2.38 thyroid-rem.

COST ANALYSIS CALCULATIONS FOR LIQUID RADWASTE PROCESSING In order to comply with 10 CFR 50 Appendix I dose limits, liquid radwaste effluents must be maintained at less than 2.62E+01 Equivalent Curies of I-131 and 9.47E+01 Equivalent Curies of Co-60. Activity is released in liquid effluents from the Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS), the liquid radioactive waste system, and secondary system wastes collected and sent to the retention pond. The CVCS system is operated continuously during normal plant operation. The CVCS will be operated continually except during unlikely periods of system inoperability.
Secondary system wastes are collected and routed to the retention pond.
Because secondary system wastes are insignificant contributions to total plant liquid releases further processing of these wastes is not provided.
The processing of steam generator blowdown and all liquid wastes collected from the controlled side of the plant is not done continually. These wastes may be discharged from the plant without processing. The purpose of this analysis is to determine when it is cost effective to process steam generator blowdown and primary side wastes through the liquid waste system.
There are three radwaste system operating points of interest. These includes; no operation, operation to comply with Appendix I limits, and full operation of the processing systems as described in the FSAR Appendix I analysis. Full operation of the system was assumed for the FSAR Appendix I calculations. The amount of radioactiv'ty expected to be released at each of these operation points is required to be known for this study. PBNP is required to operate processing systems to ensure compliance with 10 CFR 50 limits. Because it is established that liquid effluent releases from the CVCS system will be processed prior to discharge, except for unlikely periods of system inoperability, there is no need to perform a cost analysis on this system. This cost analysis encompasses the liquid radioactive waste system which processes steam generator blowdown and primary side wastes. This analysis will determine the cost of operating the system in excess of that required to accomplish Appendix I release limits.
The cost to operate the liquid radwaste system for processing of steam generator blowdown and primary wastes is calculated by the following methodology:
- 1. The cost to operate and process all radwaste through the liquid waste system is calculated. This full operation mode was assumed for FSAR Appendix I calculations. (Refer to Appendix B of this analysis)
Full operation cost = $1,356,775 4
- 2. The total cuantity of radioactive waste which
_ Q' . would be released from PBNP.in steam generator blowdown and primary wastes using the Appendix I source terms are calculated assuming no radwaste processing occurs.
These values are 2.92E+02 Equivalent Curies of Co-o0 and 7.06E+01 Equivalent Curies of I-131, a combined total 3.63E+02,
- 3. Total Curies expected to be released assuming full operation of the liquid waste system is 2.97E+00 Equivalent Curies of Co-60 and 8.29E-01 Equivalent Curies of I-131. The combined total is 3.78E+00.
- 4. The total Equivalent Curies saved by full operation of the liquid waste processing system is 3.59E+02.
Curies Saved = Curies No Operation - Curies Full Operation 3.59E+02 = 3.63E+02 - 3.78E+00 5.- The Curies permitted to be released are 9.47E+01 Equivalent Curies of Co-60 and 2.62E+01 equivalent curies of I-131. The combined Curies is 1.21E+02. This release quantity will result in Appendix I dose limits.
- 6. The Curies necessary to be saved by processing to accomplish Appendix I limits are calculated by subtracting the Curies permitted to be released from the Curies released assuming no operation cf processing systems.
CiNEC. = CiNo
- Ci APP. I SAVE Operation Limit 2.41E+02 = 3.62E+02 - 1.21E+02

Cost Full I Operation (Ci SAVED)
Limit Cost Appendix = $1,356,775 (2.41E+02) x I (3.59E+02)
Cost Appendix = $909,039 y I
It would cost approximately $909,039 annually to operate the liquid waste processing system to accomplish Appendix I release limits.
- 8. The incremental increase'in cost to process at full operation instead of operation at Appendix I limits is calculated as follows:
A Cost = Cost -
Cost gpp, y Full Operation Limit r
7 9. The cost to operate the liquid waste system per man-rem in excess of Appendix I operating requirements is calculated as follows:
Cost -
Cost Cost Benefit = Full Limit Population Dose ppp,7 - Population Dosefull Limit Operation Cost Benefit = $1,356,775 - $909,039 (6.69E+00 man-rem -

Cost Benefit = $447,736 82.7 Rem Cost Benefit = $5413/ Rem The operation of the liquid waste system in excess of the require-ments of Appendix I is not cost effective.
COST ANALYSIS FOR GASE0US RADWASTE PROCESSING Compliance with 10 CFR 50 dose limits is accomplished if gaseous effluents are maintained less than or equal to 1.04E+06 Equivalent Curies of Xe-133 and 3.52E-01 Equivalent Curies of I-131. Ventilation air from the auxiliary building is released to atmosphere through the auxiliary building vent and drumming area vent stacks. The air is exhausted through HEPA and/or carbon absorber equipment. Similarly, the containment venti-lation purge systems include HEPA and carbon absorber equipment. At this time there is no benefit gained by non-operation of the ventilation exhaust filtration systems. These filtration systems are expected to operate continually except for during unlikely periods of system inoperability.
The. compressed gas decay tank system is used to process noble gases l stripped from primary letdown. The purpose of this analysis is to determine when it is cost effective to process noble gases through the gas decay tank system.
The gas decay tank system will be operated to ensure compliance with 10 CFR 50 limits. The need to operate. the gas decay tank system beyond that required to achieve Appendix I limits is determined by analyzing the cost of operation required to save population whole body exposure. If the cost to save 1 man-rem whole body exposure is in excess of $1000 the oper-ation of the gas decay tank system is not justified.

The cost to operate the gas decay tank system for processing of W
stripped noble gases is calculated using the following methodology.
- 1. The cost to operate the gas decay tank system for processing of all stripped noble gases is calculated. The full operation mode was assumed for Appendix I calculations. (Refer to Appendix B ofthisanalysis)
Full operation cost = $33,975
, 2. Calculate the total quantity of noble gases expected to be released from PBNP if stripped gases are not processed.
This quantity is calculated assuming a letdown rate of 39,600 lbs, per hour. All noble gases contained in the letdown are assumed stripped by the gas strippers. The primary coolant source term is listed in FSAR Table I.3-2.
The Total activity is calculated as 1.83E+06 Equivalent Curies of Xe-133.
- 3. The total quantity of radioactivity expected to be released if all stripped gas is processed through the gas decay tank system is 2.81E+03 Equivalent Curies of Xe-133.
- 4. The total Xe-133 Equivalent Curies saved by the full operation of the gas decay tank system is 1.83E+06.
Curies Saved = 1.83E+06 - 2.81E+03 Curies Saved I 1.83E+06

Cost Analysis for Ventilation Exhaust Charcoal Filters Both the auxiliary building ventilation exhaust charcoal filter bank and the air ejector duct charcoal filter may be optionally utilized at PBNP. The FSAR Appendix I analysis was conducted assuming that neither of these two filters were utilized. The Appendix I analysis demonstrated that Appendix I dose limits could be achieved without these charcoal filters. -
The filters need not be used under normal plant conditions to comply with Appendix I limits. f~
L Assuming the auxiliary building ventilation exhaust filter was
- utilized continually, the annual operating and maintenance cost is estimated as $30,030. The fulltime operation of the charcoal filter would reduce I FSAR estimated radiciodine releases from this pathway by 8.80E-02 Equiva-lent Curies of I-131. This represents a population dose savings 1.22
thyroid-rem. Therefore, the cost to save 1 thyroid-rem is approximately .
$25,000.
Annual operating and maintenance costs required to operate the air ejector charcoal filter fulltime is estimated as $2,810. Fulltime operation of the air ejector charcoal filter would reduce estimated radio- :.
iodine releases from this pathway by 5.5E-02 Equivalent Curies of I-131. O This represents a population dose savings of 0.76 thyroid-rem. The cost j to save 1 thyroid-rem is approximately $3,700. ,
l Because the cost of operation of 'these charcoal filters is in excess of $1000 per thyroid-rem, the PBNP RETS specify that these charcoal filters need only be operated when required to meet Appendix I limits. .
