INTRODUCTION In accordance with the Unique Reporting Requirements of Technical Specification 6.9.2.h(2) applicable during the report period, this report summarizes the Effluent Release Data:for the Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Units 2 and 3 for the period July 1 through December 31, 1987.

The notations E and E-are used to denote positive and negative exponents respectively, to the base 10.

The release of radioactive materials during the report period was within the Technical Specification limits.

There were no changes to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) during the reporting period.

Two unplanned releases of liquid radioactive material occurred from High Pressure Service Water (HPSW) during the report period.

These events are discussed in the attachment section of the report.

Iodine was not detected from either the roof vents or main stack (see Gaseous Effluents - Table 1A), thus, the critical organ dose for iodines, in mrem, was zero.

Therefore, a conservative approach was taken in accordance with a proposed revision to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) to calculate the critical organ dose using the particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days.

These calculations are incorporated into Attachment B of the report.

Upon approval of the proposed revision to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM), the iodine dose calculation will be written into the appropriate tables of the next Semi-Annual Report.

In section labeled Liquid Effluents (Table 2B) the l

Phosphorus-32 reported value is less than the Lower l

Limit of Detection.

Phosphores-32's half-life has been exceeded by a factor of eight half-lives, therefore, Phosphorus-32 is reported as zero for this reporting l

period.

In general, any isotopes experiencing decay by i

a number of half-lives greater than a factor of eight j

are reported as zero.

SUMMARY

OF UNPLANNED RELEASES Unplanned Licuid Release Via the 3B High Pressure Service Water On August 31, 1987, a suspected release was detected by a peak which occurred on the 3B High Pressure Service Water (HPSW) radiation monitor.

A grab sample was obtained during the 5 minute duration of the event which showed detectable activity; however, activity could'not be detected in later samples.

The calculated doses are based on the methodology presented in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM), assuming a release rate of 4500 gpm (flowrate of one HPSW pump) and average release concentrations based on the sample obtained.

A leak test was not performed because periodic monitoring of the system by recorder and grab samples indicated no levels of activity.

The whole body-dose as a result of the release was calculated at 5.42E-5 mrem, and the bone dose was calculated at~6.08E-5 mrem.

Unclanned Licuid Release Via the 2A High Pressure Service Water On August 20, 1987, a suspected release was detected by a peak which occurred on the 3B HPSW radiatien monitor.

No grab sample was obtained during the 15 minute duration of the event.

The calculated doses are based on the methodology presented in the ODCM e4sucing a release rate of 3 gpm and average release concentrations based on the radiation monitor strip chart.

Because of the short duration, it is suspected that the indication may have been a possible radiation transient at the monitor.

.The whole body dose as a result of the release was calculated at 3.37E-6 mrem, and the bone dose was calculated at 3.84E-5 mrem.
