Q.5 Dr. Hofstetter, please summarize your professional qualifications and experience relevant to this testimony.

A.5 (KJH) I have an A.B. degree, and a Ph.D. degree in Chemistry from Purdue University. From 1967 to 1969, I did post-doctoral research in the Chemistry Department at Texas A & M Uni-versity. I was an Assistant Professor teaching undergraduate ,

courses in general and physical chemistry, and graduate courses [

in radiochemistry and nuclear chemistry, for five years at the l University of Kentucky. From 1974 to 1980, I was a l l

Radiochemistry l' servisor for the Allied-General Nuclear Services {

I nuclear fuel reprocessing plant at Barnwell, South Carolina.

[

From 1980 to November, 1987, I was employed by GPUN in radiochemistry support positions at TMI-2. As Supervisor of Radiochemistry, I set up and managed the radiochemistry la-boratories to support the decontamination and defueling of TMI-2.

I developed most of the radiochemical analysis procedures in use at TMI-2. As Radiochemical Engineering Supervisor, I provided technical direction for all liquid radwaste processing opera-tions, including SDS, EPICOR and RCS processing. I monitored the chemistry status of the plant, overviewed operations of the Chem-iutry Department, and provided engineering support for chemistry l and sampling activities associated with all recovery projects. I i also coordinated off-site analyses and reviewed all the results of such analyses. My present position with Savannah River La-boratories involves the development of equipment to monitor tritium at environmental levels for the Department of Energy.

A complete statement of my professional qualifications is appended as Attachment 2 to this testimony.

Q.6 What is the purpose of your testimony?

A.6 (KLH, KJH) The principal purpose of our testimony is to respond to the sub-issue identified for hearing as to whether the tritium content of the AGW has been accurately determined.

While addressing this issue, we will respond to related Joint In-tervenor statements of material facts under Contention 3, and to the single issue left under Contention 4(b).

Q.7 How is your testimony organized?

A.7 (KLH, KJH) First, we give GPUN's current estimate of the tritium content of the AGW and explain the basis for GPUN's estimate. Second, we explain why GPUN is confident that its sam-pling data is representative of the entire body of water. Third, we discuss the various sources of data on the AGW. Fourth, we will address the questions presented by the Joint Intervenors concerning the procedures followed during the sampling and analy-sia of the AGW.

Q.8 What is GPUN's estimate of the amount of tritium in the AGW?

A.8 (KLH) It is estimated that the AGW contains no more than 1,020 curies of tritium, which represents an everage concen-tration of 1.2E-1 uCi/ml in the projected 2.3 million gallons of AGW.

Q.9 How was the figure of 1,020 curies of tritium derived?

A.9 (KLH) While the AGW is in a number of storage loca-tions, approximately 73 percent of the AGW.is in only four loca-tions. During the preparation of GPUN's July 1986 Report, the most recent sample data from 25 bodies of water was used and the f

concentration of each body of wster was then multiplied by ite corresponding tank volume to yield the amount of tritium present in each tank. The total inventories of tritium in each tank were then added to obtain the total curies of tritium in the AGW. The j result was a total of 1,180 curies of tritium in the AGW. .

Correcting the data in the July 1986 Report to October, 1988, for radioactive decay, a conservative total tritium curie content of 1,020 is estimated. This estimate is conservative be-cause reductions for normal evaporative losses have not been in-cluded. Table 1 contains a summary of the data presented in the July 1986 Report correctea for radioactive decay. The 1.9 mil-lion gallons of AGW present at that time has also been increased to a projected 2.3 million gallons, the maximum quantity of AGW estimated to be processed through the evaporator.

In addition to this 1986 sampling effort, GPUN has since an-alyzed about 5,000 routine samples of the AGW, including measure-ments of tritium which confirm the 1986 data. In conjunction with the routine samples analyzed by the GPUN laboratory, period-ic independent Quality Control analyses are also performed. The QC techniques include round robin, blind, duplicate, replicate,

-S-

spiked and split samples. In this way, the accuracy and preci-sion of the entire analytical process is verified frequently. In addition, a sample was analyzed independently by GPUN's chemistry department and by the U.S. Department of Energy's Radiological and Environmental Sciences Laboratory ("RESL"), Idaho Falls, Idaho, on behalf of the NRC. This analysis, as discussed further below, is consistent with the GPUN data.

Q.10 The Joint Intervenors assert in Material Statement of Fact 4(xii), under Contention 3, that the alleged changing source term of the AGW is particularly relevant to tritium. As an exam-ple, the Joint Intervenors state that Licensee relied on data from PEIS (1981) and EGG-PBS-6798 to get 3,161 curies and 4,231 curies, respectively, while TPO/TMI-043 Rev 6 (1986) shows that the cover inventory of tritium at the time of the accident was 8,794 curies. Given the above data, what conclusions do you draw with respect to the tritium source term?

A.lO (KJH) There are many computational methods available in the literature which attempt to model what might occur at the time of a reactor accident having failed fuel exposed to its cooling medium or the atmosphere. Each uses a set of assumptions i

to define the accident. Assumptions are made defining core con-l ditions, plant configuration, responses to the event and dure-tion. As would be expected, each estimate is different due to l

the assumptions made and computational method utilized.

l L____

l Two of the early estimates of the tritium source term at the time of the IMI-2 accident are 8,794 curies (TPO/TMI-043, Rev. 6, Data Report - Radioactive Waste Management Summary Review) and 4,231 curies (EGG-PBS-6798, TMI-2 Isotopic Inventory Calcula-tions). Both of these estimates are based on postulated condi-tions.

Another type of estimate of the TMI-2 accident tritium scurce term can be made by making an accurate inventory based on actual conditions at a particular point in time. Again, a calcu-lation is needed to combine the various input data to a single number. A tritium source term of 2,910 curies (NUREG-0683, PEIS, 1981) was based on limited sample data and source volumes in September, 1980. The GPUN tritium source term of approximately 1,180 curies, reported in July 1986, was based on much more sam-pie data and source volumes from early 1986. The quantity of tritium in the AGW continues to decrease through radioactive decay and evaporative losses.

The estimated upper-bound tritium source term of 1,020 curies, presented by GPUN in July 1986, and by the NRC in Table 2.2, NUREG-0683, Supp. 2, is a projection to October 1, 1988, taking into account only radioactive decay. Since tritium is not t produced in the fuel after the fissioning process has stopped,  !

there has been no tritium added since Merch, 1979. The amount of ,

tritium present continues to decrease through radioactive decay, while some is released to the atmosphere through normal b b

evaporation. Therefore, the tritium source term estimate of 1,020 curies, which is not corrected for evaporative losses, is a realistic and upper-bound value based on actual laboratory ana-lytical results and storage location volumes of virtually all of the AG'd at TMI-2.

Q.ll Joint Intervenors' Material Statement of Fact 4(iv) under Contention 3 asserts that it is difficult to acquire an accurate assessment of the tritium concentration of water. Can you comment on the Joint Intervenors' assertion?

A.11 (KJH) Yes. As a general matter, I would like to potAt out that determining the concentration of any element in a liquid sample is an intricate process. Tritium analyses are par-ticularly difficult since tritium emits only very low energy beta >

particles. When determining tritium concentrations in liquids, two mejor interferences are (1) the presence of other beta emit-ting radionuclides in the sample and (2) the variations in counting efficiencies caused by chemical impurities in the sam-pie. Both of these interferences are addressed in TMI-2 Chemis-try Procedure 4212-CHM-3Ol3.81, which was used to analyze all tritium samples taken by GPUN.

The presence of other radionuclides which also emit beta particles (and/or gamma rays) can give a falsely high indication of the amount of tritium present in a sample. Therefore, Chemis-try Procedure 4212-CHM-3013.81 provides methods to remove the in-terfering radicnuclides using various methods -- filtration, ion exchange, or flocculation.

The second major interference comes from the presence of ,

chemical impurities either in the scintillation cocktail or the water sample itself which can produce a falsely low indication of the amount of tritium present in the sample. Chemistry Procedure 4212-CHM-3013.81 provides two methods which control these chemi-cal interferences. Ascorbic acid is added to the sample to react with any organic material and minimize its sffect on the detec-tion efficiency. The other technique requires the addition of a known amount of tritium to a second aliquot of the same sample.

This spiked aliquot is used to determine the exact counting effi-ciency for the detector in the sample matrix. Once this is known, the tritium concentration of the unspiked sample can be .

determined accurately.

Q.12 The NRC assumes that the average concentrations of radionuclides as shown in Table 2.2, of NUREG-06d3, Supp. 2 can be reasonably considered a maxim'um. The Joint Intervenors con-tend in Material Statements of Fact 4(viii) and 4(x) under Con-tontion 3 that this assumption is invalid, citing as an example the average concentration of tricium in Table 2.2 as 1.3E-1 i uC1/ml, while the Technical Specification for Processed Water Disposal lists the tritium concentration in PWST-2 as 2.1 uCi/ml.

This is also the enly issue remaining under Contention 4(b). i i Please assess the Joint Intervenors' assertion.

A.12 (KLH) I do not cgree with the Joint Intervenors' as- ,

sertion.

First, the values for radionuclides listed in Table 2.2 of NUREG-0683, Supp. 2 are reasonable projections of concentrations expected so exist in the influent to the evaporator. I have com-pared the projections of concentration for processed water in Table 2.2 against the RESL analyses of SDS and/or EPICOR II pro-cessed water in PWST-2 on February 24, 1987. The actual analyti-cal results for PWST-2 processed water were lower than the pro-jections of Table 2.2 for all radionuclides except tritium. This demonstrates that the data from Table 2.2 is a reasonable esti-mate which can be used for dose calculations. Since the concen-tration of tritium is not reduced by water processing, the final concentration in each storage location after processing can be no greater than the tritium influent concentration. Therefore, de-pending on which of these locations is being processed, the tritium concentration will vary. The average tritium concentra-tion is then a mathematical calculation and must be done in place of the capability to undertake a physical mixing cf the entire AGW volume in a single, homogeneous batch.

Second, the tritium concentrations at issue cannot be com-pared directly to each other. The values are a mixture of actual sample results, as well as estimates calculated using averaged numbers, actual numbers and other input at various points in time. The tritium value of 1.3E-1 uCi/ml was a mathematical pro-jection of the average tritium concentration of all the AGW on October 1, 1988, and was based on 2.1 million gallons of AGW.

The tritium value of 2.3E-1 uCi/ml was an actual analytical re-sult obtained by GPUN for a PWST-2 sample (GPUN sample number 86-15668) on October 27, 1986. It was also the result obtained for a tritium analysis performed for a sample of PWST-2 (GPUN sample number 86-17062) on November 21, 1986.

The tritium value of 2.1 uCi/ml was an error on page 43, t step 7.3 of a CPUN document titled, "Technical Specification for Processed Water Disposal for GPU Nuclear Corporation Three Mile Island - Unit 2 Nuclear Power Plant". This document is a bid specification sent to vendors and provides information necessary for them to evaluate the *ask ar.d return a proposal for construc-tion. No sample from TMI-2 ever contained tritium as high as 2.1 uCi/ml. My check of the lab results shows that the correct value for the sample in question is 2.3E-1 uCi/ml.

Q.13 Joint Intervenors' Material Statement of Fact 4(11) under Contention 3 observes that tables 2-3 and 2-4 in the July 1986 Report list 25 sources of waste water in storage at TMI with the total radioactivity in each. The concentration of tritium in f the different sources was, according to the Joint Intervenors, highly variable. Is GPUN confident that its sampling data is representative of the entire body of water?

A.13 (KJH) It is important to undecstand why there are variat',ons in the raitoactive concentrations of water in dif-ferent locations. At the time of the TMI-2 accident, some of the projected 2.3 million gallons of AGW was already on site supporting various plant operations (i.e., Bleed Hold Up, Reactor Coolant System ("RCS"), Borated Water Storage Tank ("BWST"), Mis-cellaneous Waste Hold Up). The water in these tanks had very low i to no concentrations of radionuclides.

The vast majority of the radionuclides now present in the i i

AGW came from the failed fuel via the water of the RCS through the Pressure Operated Relief Valve / Reactor Coolant ("RC") Drain Tank or through the RC letdown / purification pathway. In addi-tion, the recovery of TMI-2 has been a complex task with many t jobs proceeding in parallel. Most tasks have required water, j

] '

from small volumes for hands-on decontamination and operation of l

the chemistry laboratory to very large volumes used for shielding in the Spent Fuel Pools (SFP-A and SFP-B) or stored for emergency use as in the BWST. Through these uses and processing, varying amounts of the highly radioactive water of the RCS found its way into tanks, sumps, piping and the Reactor Building ("RB") base-i ment. This commingling of RCS water with the listed storage lo-cations over the years has produced batches of water which are not identical in contaminant concentrations. Therefore, as in the case of tritium, the quantity or concentration of radionuclides in each storage location is dependent on the amount }

of original RCS water contained with pre-accident water or post-accident water additions. The tritium concentration of PWST-2,  ;

r for example, is higher than the average AGW tritium concentra-tion. This is because the tank contains mostly processed water 1

from the RB basement, which leaked directly from the RCS at the time of the accident. Thus, it contained very high concentra-tions of radionuclides.

Q.14 Joint Intervenors' Material Statements of Fact 4(vi) and (vii) under Contention 3 state that the analyses of the PWST-2 samples by RESL for the NRC and by GPUN gave differing re-sults for Co-60, Cs-137, and Sr-90, and that neither detected C-14, whereas an analysis by Westinghcose found C-14 at a concen-tration of 3.0E-4, greater than the average concentration listed in Table 2.2 of NUREG-0683, Supp. 2, by a factor of three. Why is there a difference in the sample results for Co-60, Cs-137, and Sr-907 A.14 (KLH) A sample of PWST-2 was obtained on February 23, 1987 (GPUN sample number 87-02569). A portion of the sample was transferred to the NRC for analysis b'] their contracted laborato-ry, RESL. A comparison of the GPUN data and the RESL data can be done on positive (greater than LLD) results for individual radionuclides. One method for comparison is outlined in the NRC "Inspection and Enforcement Manual," Inspection Procedure 84725.

This method is used to evaluate a licensee's analytical capabili-ty to make consistently accurate radioactivity measurements. The licensee's measurement is compared to a NRC or RESL measurement and a determination is made whether the two values are close enough to be in agreement. The "agreement" criteria are based on an empirical relationship which combines prior experience and the l

accuracy needs of the program. Applying the procedure to the specific GPUN and RESL data for the PWST-2 sample yields the fol-l loving results:

GPUN RESL Radionuclide Value (uCi/ml) Value (uCi/ml) Acreemeni Tritium (1.9 0.05) E-1 (1.9 0.03) E-1 Yes Cobalt-60 (2.8 1 0.7) E-7 (3.2 1 0.5) E-7 Yes Cesium-137 (7.0 1 0.3) E-6 (8.0 0.2) E-6 Yes Strontium-90 (5.8 1 0.2) E-5 (2.55 : 0.07)E-5 No The differei.ces observed between these two sets of data for tritium, co-60 and Cs-137 are not major and, in fact, are within the range of normal differences observed when comparing radiochemistry data from two separate laboratories in accordance with NRC standards.

The difference between the GPUN data and RESL data for Sr-90 results from the procedures used by the two laboratories. GPUN uses either a 72-hour or a rapid method to analyze for Sr-90 in liquid samples. GPUN quality control data for the liquid Sr-90 analysis has shown the 72-hour method to be more accurate than the rapid method; however, both are inherently conservative. The 72-hour analysis results average 40% higher than the actual, while the rapid method results average 100% higher than the actu-al concentrations at the 1E-4 uCi/mi Sr-90 level, when compared to standards or the results of split samples reported by off-site laboratories using more traditional methods.

4 .

j

< In addition, the Sr-90 analyses performed by RESL occurred ,

1 two to four weeks after the sample was obtained. During the in- )

tervening period, particulate in the sample could have settled out to the bottom or could have attached itself to the surfaces of the sample container. These processes would cause an aliquot of the sample to be lower in concentration. To preclude this potential problem, GPUN boils the sample to release Sr-90 which i

i may be bound to particulate matter.

i I also would like to point out that the environmental impact analysis in the PEIS was not calculated from these single sample -

i analytical results. The average or "hase case" data was conser- ,

vatively calculated from many sample results and assumptions made i

from knowledge of a long history of water processing through the l

SDS and EPICOR II Systems.

Q.15 Why are the analyses for C-14 at variance with one an-other?

I A.15 (KJH) The C-14 concentrations at issue vary because

' the values are a mixture of actaal sample results, averaged num-l bers and estimates or projections calculated from various input.

The C-14 value of 3.0E-4 uCi/ml is an actual sample result obtained from a PWST-2 sample (GPUN sample number 85-16198) ana-lyzed by Westinghouse. The sample date is December 23, 1985.

The C-14 value of (2.OE-7 uCi/mi is an actual sample result obtained from a PWST-2 sample (GPUN cample number 87-02569) ana-lyzed by RESL. The sample date is February 24, 1987. The C-14

-15

value of 1.OE-4 uCi/ml found in Table 2.2 of NUREG-0683, Supp. 2, is a calculated estimate based on operational experience of SDS and EPICOR II Systems and on the average of four processed water analyses performed by Westinghouse in early 1986. A calculated projection of concentration for the total volume is not the same as an actual sample result of a single portion of water. The C-14 values listed vary, but the NRC and GPUN appropriately have used the 1.OE-4 Wentinghouse average concentration for dose esti-l mates, even though RESL measured a much lower value.

1 Q.16 In Material Statement of Fact 4(11) under Contention 3, the Joint Intervenors argue that the NRC's sampling of the AGW is inadequate because the NRC took a 4 liter sample from a tank which contains one-fifth of the AGW. *s the NRC analyzed a rep-resentative sample of water available r evaporation?

A.16 (KLH) Yes. In February, 1987, the water in the PWST-2 was sampled. The sample of PWST-2 was divided between the NRC and GPUN. All of the PWST water has undergone treatment through EPICOR II or through SDS and EPICOR II. Similar pro-cessing has been given or will be given to the ACW. Whils some variations in concentrations of radionuclidos occar among batches of AGW processed through SDS and EPICOR I L.; . erage concer' trations resulting from this processing have ..t.; ooen signifi-

[

cantly different. Therefore, the PWST-2 water is representative of the TMI-2 water available for evaporation, and it has been evaluated by the NRC Staff.
