NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION NUMBER ODCM HUMBOLDT BAY POWER PLANT VOLUME 4 l- REVISION 1, I A & 2

[ TITLE SAFSTOR OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL EFFEC.DATE 1998 PAGE i CHANGES TO THE ODCM DURING 1998 I

(Procedure Classification - Quality Related)

INTRODUCTION The SAFSTOR Off-site Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM)is provided to support implementation of I the Humboldt Bay Power Plant (HBPP) Unit 3 radiological emuent controls and radiological environmental monitoring. The ODCM is divided into two parts, Pan 1 - Specifications and Part II -

Calculational Methods and Parameters.

Pad I contains the specifications for liquid and gaseous radiological emuents (RETS) developed in  !

accordance with NUREG-0473, Draft Radiological Effluent Technical Specipcations - BWR, by License Amendment Request (LAR) 96-02 and the radiological environmental monitoring program (RE: Both the RETS and the REMP were relocated from the Technical Specifications by LAR 96-02 in accordance with the provisions of Generic Letter 89-01, Implementation ofProgrammatic Controlsfor Radiological Effluent Technical Specipcations in the Administrative Controls Section of the TechnicalSpecifications and the Relocation ofProceduralDetails ofRETS to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual or to the Process ControlProgram, issued by the NRC in January,1989.

I Implementation of the LA.R revised the instantaneous liquid concentration limits based on "old" 10 CFR 20 maximum permissible concentrations (MPCs) to 10 times the "new" 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, 1 Table 2, Column 2 emuent concentration limits (ECLs) and replaced the gaseous emuent instantaneous concentration limits at the site boundary with annual dose rate limits equating to the doses associated with the annual average concentrations of"old" 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 1. The LAR also established limits for doses to members of the public from radiological emuents based on the as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) design objectives of 10 CFR 50, Appendix 1 as applicable to a nuclear power plant which has been chut down in excess of 20 years and is in SAFSTOR Decommissioning. These dose limits were established fohawing the guidance of NUREG-0133, Preparation ofRadiological Effluent Technical Specificationsfor Nuclear Power Plants, and NUREG-0473. This guidance was modified, as appropriate, to reflect the SAFSTOR decommissioning licensing basis contained in the HBPP S AFSTOR Decommissioning Plan, the Environmental Report submitted as Attachment 6 to the HBPP SAFSTOR licensing amendment request and NUREG-1166, HBPP FinalEnvironmentalStatement.

The ODCM contains the REMP required by Technical Specification VII.G. This program consists of monitoring stations and sampling programs based on the SAFSTOR Decommissioning Plan and the Environmental Report which established baseline conditions for soil, biota and sediments. The REMP also includes requirements to participate in an interlaboratory comparison program.

Part 11 of the ODCM contains the calculational methods developed, following the above guidance, to be used in determining the dose to members of the public resulting from routine radioactive emuents l

released from HBPP during the SAFSTOR period. Part 11 also contains the methodology used to 9904070419 990331 PDR ADOCK 05000133 R PDR

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION NUMBER ODCM HUMBOLDT BAY POWER PLANT VOLUME 4 REVISION 1, I A & 2 TITLE SAFSTOR OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE ii determine emuent nanitor alarm / trip setpoints which assure that releases of radioactive materials remain within specified concentrations.

The ODCM also contains the Process Control Program (PCP) for solid radioactive wastes which is required by Technical Specification VII.E.1.j. The ODCM also contains administrative controls  ;

regarding the content of the Annual Radiological Environmental Monitoring Report and the Annual Radioactive Emuent Release Report which are required by Technical Specifications Vll.J.1 and VII.J.3 and administrative controls regarding major changes to radioactive waste treatment systems.

9/24/98 The ODCM shall become effective after review by the Plant Staff Review Committee and approval by Em98 the Plant Manager in accordance with Technical Specification Section Vll.O. Changes to the ODCM shall be documented and records of reviews performed shall be retained. This documer.:ation shall contain suflicient information to support the change (including analyses or evaluations), and a determination that the change will maintain the level of radioactive emuent control required by the regulations listed in Technical Specification VII.F and not adversely impact the accuracy or reliability of emuent, dose, or setpoint calculations.

Changes sha!! be submitted to the NRC in the form of a complete and legible copy of the entire ODCM as part of, or concurrent with, the Annual Radioactive Emuent Release Report for the period of the report in which any change to the ODCM was made. Each change shall be identified by markings in the margin of the affected pages, clearly indicating the area of the page that was changed.

")

This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be considered. Other peaks that are identifiable, together with those of the above nuclides, shall also be analyzed and reported in l the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

(M Required detection capabilities for thermoluminescent dosimeters used for environmental measurements shall be in accordance with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 4.13, Revision 1, July 1977.

") The LLD is defined, for purposes of these specifications, as the smallest concentration of l

radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95 percent probability with only 5 percent probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation:

LLD = 4.66Sb E x V x 2.22 x Y x exp(-At)

For low background counting, the methodology of NUREG-04007 is sed as follows:

' "8 LLD = 3 + 4.66sb E x V x 2.22 x Y x exp(-At)

Where:

LLD =

the "a priori" lower limit of detection as defined above (as pCi per unit mass or volume)

S, =

the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (as counts per minute)

E = the counting efliciency (as counts per transformation)

V = the sample size (in units of mass or volume) 2.22 =

the number of transformations per minute per pico-curie

9GG8 3 =

is a term introduced to account for minor deviation of the Poison distribution from the Normal distribution for low count rates ,

The value of S3 used in the calculation of the LLD for a detection system will be based on the actual observed variance of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of the blank samples (as appropriate) rather than on an unverified theoretically predicted variance.

In calculating the LLD for a radionuclide determined by gamma ray spectrometry, the background will include the typical contributions of other radionuclides normally present in the samples (e.g., potassium 40 in milk samples).

Analyses will be performed in such a manner that the stated LLDs will be achieved under routine conditions. Occasionally background fluctuations, unavoidably small sample sizes, the presence ofinterfering nuclides, or other uncontrollable circumstances may render these LLDs unachievable. In such cases, the contributing factors will be identified and described in the Annual Environmental Radiological Operating Report.

Typical values of E, V, Y and t should be used in the calculation. It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a priori (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as a nosteriori (afler the fact) limit for a particular measurernent.

  • For surface water samples, a value of 3000 pCi1 may be used.

3.1 Radioactive Liauid Emuent Monitoring _ Instrumentation Basis The radioactive liquid emuent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents during actual or potential releases ofliquid emuents. The alarm / trip setpoints for these instruments shall be calculated in accordance with Part 11 of the ODCM to ensure that the alarm / trip will occur prior to exceeding 10 times the emuent concentration limits of 10 CFR Part 20 for releases to Humboldt Bay. The OPERABILITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60,63 and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3.2 Radioactive Gaseous Emuent Monitoring Instrumentation Basis The radioactive gaseous emuent instrumentation is provided to monitor the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous emuents during actual or potential releases of gaseous emuents from the plant stack. The alarm setpoints for these instruments are calculated in accordance with Part 11 of the ODCM to ensure that the alarm will occur prior to exceeding a radioactive material concentration corresponding to gamma and beta dose rates above background to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY ofless than or equal to 500 mrem / year to the total body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrem / year to the skin. The OPERABILITY and use of this instrumentation is consistent with the requirements of General Design Criteria 60,63, and 64 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3.3 Liauid Emuent Concentration Basis This specification is provided to ensure that the instantaneous concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste emuents beyond the SITE BOUNDARY will be less than 10 times the emuent concentration limits specified in 10 CFR Pan 20.

The specification provides operational flexibility for releasing liquid emuents in concentrations to follow the Section ll.A and ll.C design objectives of Appendix 1 to 10 CFR 50. This limitation provides reasonable assurance that the levels of radioactive materials released to Humboldt Bay will result in exposures within (1) the Section ll.A design objectives of Appendix 1,10 CFR 50, to a MEMBER OF THE PUBIC and (2) the limits of 10 CFR 20.1302 to the population. This specification does not affect the requirement to comply with the annual limitations of 10 CFR 20.1301(a).

  • x 1.. The ACTION statement provides the required operating flexibility and at th, . , 'me implements the guides set forth in l Stetion IV.A of Appendix I to assure that ths leases of radioactive material in liquid emuents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable" (ALARA). The dose calculations in the OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL (ODCM) implement the requirements in Section Ill.A of Appendix 1 that conformance with the guides of l Appendix 1 be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that l the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The equations specified in the OFFSITE l DOSE CALCULATIONAL MANUAL (ODCM) for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive materials in liquid emuents are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, " Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Emuents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.113, " Estimating Aquatic Dispersion of Emuents from Accidental and Routine Reactor Releases for the Purpose ofImplementing Appendix I," April 1977.

3.5 Liquid Waste Treatment Basis The requirement that these systems be used when specified provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid emuents will be kept "as low as reasonably achievable" (ALARA). This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part

, 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and the design j objective given in Section ll.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits i governing the use of appropriate portions of the liquid radwaste treatment system were I selected as one quarter of the dose design objectives (on a monthly basis) set forth in l Section II.A of Appendix 1,10 CFR Part 50, for liquid emuents (3 mrem /yr; 10 mrem /yr to any organ).

3.6 Gaseous Effluents Dose Rate Basis I

This specification provides reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in j gaseous emuents will not result in the exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC in an i UNRESTRICTED AREA either within or outside the SITE BOUNDARY in excess of the design objectives of Appendix 1 to 10 CFR 50. The annual dose rate limits are the doses associated with the annual average concentrations of"old" 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 1. The specification provides operational flexibility for releasing gaseous emuents to satisfy the Section II.A and II.C design objectives of Appendix I to 4

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION NUMBER ODCM HUMBOLDT BAY POWER PLANT VOLUME 4 REVISION 1, I A & 2 TITLE SAFSTOR OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE I 42 SPECIFICATION BASES I 10 CFR 50. For a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC who may at times be within the SITE

)

i BOUNDARY, the period of occupancy (which is bounded by the maximum occupational period while working in Units 1 or 2) will be sumciently low to compensate for the reduced atmospheric dispersion of gaseous emuents relative to that for the SITE -

. BOUNDARY. The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY to less than or equal to 500 mrem / year to the total body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrem / year to the skin. This specification does not affect the requirement to comply with the annual limitations of 10 CFR. 20.1301(a).

The dose assessment contained in NUREG-1166 has established that neither the routine release of tritium and radioactive particulates with half-lives of greater than 8 days during SAFSTOR nor the occurrence of an analyzed accident during SAFSTOR will exceed the 1500 mrem / year dose rate limit.

The only tritium source term is the spent fuel pool. Assuming a conservative tritium spent fuel pool concentration of 1.0E-4 microcuries/ml, an evaporation rate of 50 gal per day and a ventilation flow rate of 32,000 cfm, the airborne tritium concentration is weil below the required LLD of 1.0E-6 microcuries/ml. Therefore tritium is not sampled in the plant stack efiluent stream.

3.7 Gaseous Efiluents: Noble Gases Dose Basis This Specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.B, Ill.A and IV.A of Appendix 1,10 CFR Part 50. The Limiting Condition for Operation implements )

the guides set forth in Section II.B of Appendix 1. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in ,

Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in gaseous l efiluents will be kept "as low as reasonably achievable" (ALARA). The Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The dose calculations established for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive noble gases in gaseous efiluents are consistent with the methodology  ;

provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, " Calculational of Anr.ual Doses to Man from j Routine Releases of Reactor Efiluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix 1," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, 4

" Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Efiluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. The luations provided for determining the air doses at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY

, based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions.

l 3.8 Gaseous EfIluents: Tritium and R. adionuclides in Particulate Form Dose Basis This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections ll.C, Ill.A, and IV.A of Appendix 1,10 CFR Pan 50. The Limiting Conditions for Operation are the guides set forth in Section II.C of Appendix 1. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV. A of Appendix 1 to assure that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluent will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable" (ALARA). The calculational methods specified in the Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in i Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The methods for calculating the dose due to the actual release rates of the subject materials are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, " Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of i Reactor EfIluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50,  ;

Appendix 1," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, " Methods for l Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous EfIluents in Routine  ;

Releases from Light-Water-Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. These equations J also provide for determining the actual doses based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions. The release rate specifications for radioactive paniculates with half-life greater than eight days are dependent on the existing radionuclide pathways to man, in areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY. The pathways which were examined in the development of these calculations were: 1) Individualinhalation of airborne radionuclides, 2) deposition of radionuclides onto green leaf vegetation with subsequent consumption by man,3) deposition onto grassy areas where milk animals and meat producing animals graze with consumption of the milk and meat by man, and 4) ,

deposition on the ground with subsequent exposure of man.

3.9 Solid Radioactive Waste Basis This Specification ensures that radioactive wastes that are transponed from the site shall meet the solidification requirements specified by the burial ground licensee of the respective states to which the radioactive material will be shipped. It also implements the requirements of 10 CFR Pan 50.36a and General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

3.10 Total Dose Basis

- This specification is provided to meet the dose limitations of 40 CFR Part 190 that have now been incorporated into 10 CFR Part 20 by 46 FR 18525. The specification requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses from l

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION NUMBER ODCM HUMBOLDT BAY POWER PLANT VOLUME 4 REVISION 1, l A & 2 TITLE SAFSTOR OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANU'.L PAGE I - 44 1

SPECIFICATION HASES l

plant radioactive effluents exceed twice the design objective doses of Appendix 1. The Special Report will describe a course of action that should result in the limitation of the annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC to within the 40 CFR Part 190 limits. For i the purposes of the Special Repon, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the l

MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from other uranium fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contributions from other nuclear fuel cycle facilities at the same site or within a radius of 8 km must be considered. If the dose to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is estimated to exceed the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190, the Special Repon with a request for a variance (provided the release conditions resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 have not already been corrected), in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR part 190.11 and 10 CFR Part 20.2203a4, is considered to be a timely request and fulfills the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190 until NRC staff action is completed. The variance only relates to the limits of 40 CFR Part 190 and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose limitation of 10 CFR Part 20, as addressed in Spech. cations 2.3,2.4,2.6,2.7 and 2.8. An individualis not considered a 1 MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC during any period in which he/she is engaged in carrying out any operation that is pan of the nuclear fuel cycle.

3.11 REMP Monitorina Program Basis The quality-related portion of the REMP satisfies the requirements in 10 CFR Parts 20 I and 50 that radiological environmental monitoring programs be established to provide data on measurable levels of radiation and radioactive materials in the site environs. It supplements the S AFSTOR Environmental Report baseline environmental conditions by conducting onsite and ofTsite environmental monitoring to evaluate routine conditions during SAFSTOR and to document any increased nuclide concentrations and/or radiation levels resulting from accidents during SAFSTOR.

The non quality-related portion of the HBPP REMP fulfills commitments for environmental monitoring made to the state of California and conducts additional environmental monitoring which PG&E/HBPP has elected to continue from the REMP which was being implemented prior to approval of the SAFSTOR Decommissioning Plan. Normally, non quality-related environmental monitoring (including sample collection and analysis) is conducted in accordance with the programmatic controls established for the quality-related environmental monitoring; however, this monitoring is not subject to the program requirements for radiological environmental monitoring contained in the NRC Radiological Assessment Branch's Branch Technical Position which was issued as Generic Letter 79-65 nor is it subject to the HBPP Decommissioning Quality Assurance Program requirements including adherence to Regulatory Guide 4.15, Quality Assurancefor RadiologicalMonitoring Programs (Normal Operations)-

Effluent Streams and the Environment.

1.1.1 The alarm setpoint (countrate) for each monitor is calculated as:

r s p3 A x 10 x (ECLc) x K x 0.85 +B

where:

A =

The alarm setpoint, counts per minute, of the process water monitor or the caisson sump monitor.

F3 =

Flow rate of the efiluent canal into Humboldt Bay (F1 + F2 + circulating  !

water flow - minimum flow with one Unit 1 or Unit 2 circulating water pump in operation is 12,500 gpm).

K =

Calibration factor for the monitor, with units of cpm per micro-Ci/ml.

Baseline calibration of the process water monitor (on 9/20/88) found this factor to be within *l5% of 3.06 x 10' cpm per micro-Ci/ml.

0.85 = Conservatism factor (85 percent of the Specification 2.3 concentration 9/M98 l limits to allow for 15% monitor calibration uncertainty).

I' f; =

Fraction of radionuclide "i" in the mixture.

l.1.3 Table 2-2 of Spccification 2.1 requires that if a background reading exceeds the I equivalent of 5 x 10 micro-Ci/ml of Cs-137, the cause will be investigated and remedial measures taken to reduce the background reading. Therefore, the maximum background allowable (Bmo, cpm) is:

B,m

= K x (5 x 10~5) cpm (1-3) 1.1.4 The most conservative background limit is calculated as if the calibration factor was 2.60 x 10' cpm per micro-Ci/ml (-15% tolerance). This background limit would be 13,005 cpm. It is plant policy to use a background limit (slightly lower) at 13,000 cpm to ensure that this limit is satisfied. Note that if the background setting exceeds 13,000 cpm, the monitor should be declared INOPERABLE until the background has been reduced.

1.1.5 For continuous direct caisson sump discharges, the monitor should be set to alarm at or below 7.5 times the Cs-137 ECL from 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, column 2 (75 percent of the Specification 2.3 limit for Cs-137), assuming no circulating water pump flow and that no liquid radwaste discharge is in progress (i.e., Equation i-1 is solved with Fi = 0 and F3 = F2).

1.1.6 If the Technical Specification alarm setting is calculated for -15% tolerance, and for zero background, the Technical Specification alarm setting would be 26,000 cpm. It is plant policy to maintain the Technical Specification alarm setting at or below 25,000 cpm, to ensure that this Technical Specification limit is satisfied.

Refer to section 1.1.7 for the administrative (lower) alarm settings.

m 1.1.7 For routine liquid radwaste batch discharges, it is plant policy to set the process monitor alarm no higher than necessary in order to provide protection against inadvertent releases. With at least one circulator operating, the alarm should be set according to the following table, and in any case, no higher than 25,000 cpm.

2.3 LIQUID EFFLUENT DOSE CALCULATION METHODOLOGY l

The dose contribution to the total body and each individual organ (bone, liver, kidney, lung and GI-LLI) of the maximum and average exposed individual (adult, teen, child, and infant) will be calculated for the nuclides detected in emuents. The dose to an organ of an individual from the release of a mixture of radionuclides will be calculated as follows:

D=[ Ci x DF x {(Brisa.i x Ura)+(Bav.i x Umv)}.

,-i (2-1) where:

D =

The dose commitment, mrem per year, to an organ (or to the whole body) due to consumption of aquatic foods.

Ci =

The average diluted emuent concentration, pico-Curie / liter, for radionuclide, i. This will be estimated by dividing the total activity of the nuclide discharged during the quarter, pico-Curies, by the total citeulating water discharge flow during the quarter, liters. Note that the resulting dose commitment is the annual dose for the case of four quarters with this average concentration.

DF -

The dose conversion factor, mrem /pico-Curie for the nuclide, organ, and age group being calculated. This factor is taken from Tables 2-1,2-2, and 2-3.

BFish,i =

The bioaccumulation factor, pico-Curie / kilogram per pico-Curie / liter, in fish for the radionuclide in question. This value is taken from Table 2-4.

BInv.i = The bioaccumulation factor, pico-Curie / kilogram per pico-Curie / liter, in invertebrates for the radionuclide in question. This value is taken from Table 2-4.

UFish = Usage factor (consumption) of fish, kilogram / year, for the age group and individual (average or maximum)in question. This factor is derived from Table 2-5 or 2-6.

Utnv = Usage factor ofinvertebrates, kilogram / year, for the applicable age group and individual (average or maximum). This factor is from Table 2-5 or 2-6.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION NUMBER ODCM HUMBOLDT BAY POWER PLANT VOLUME 4 REVISION 1, I A & 2 TITLE SAFSTOR OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11 8 The total exposure to an organ (or whole body) is found from the summation of the contributions of each of the individual nuclides calculated.

! 3.0 LIQUID WASTE TREATMENT l

3.1 TREATMENT REQUIREMENTS l 3.1.1 ODCM Specification 2.5 Specification 2.5 requires that liquid radwaste shall be treated, as required, to reduce radioactive materials in liquid wastes prior to their discharge, when projected monthly doses due to liquid efiluents discharged to UNRESTRICTED AREAS would exceed 0.06 mrem whole bociy or 0.2 mrem to any organ.  ;

3.1.2 NPDES Waste Discharge Requirement NPDES Permit No. CA0005622, issued by the California Regional Water Qnlity 1 Control Board - North Coast Region, requires that the discharge ofliquid wastes "shall not cause bottom deposits in the receiving waters." The permit also identifies i

Discharge Serial No. 001E (liquid low level radioactive waste) that indicates that the M88 waste may be treated prior to discharge. The permit does not mandate treatment.

3.2 TREATMENT CAPABILITIES J

9tama l 3.2.1 Liquid Waste Collection System Liquid waste is collected in either the turbine building drain tank (TBDT), reactor equipment drain tank (REDT), reactor caisson sump or radwaste building sump.

a. Turbine Building Drain Tank The TBDT, turbine building ficor drain pump and TBDT pumps are located at elevation -14 feet in the reactor caisson in a shielded vault beneath the new fuel storage vault. The contents of the 3,000 gallon capacity tank may be pumped to l a radwaste receiver tank or drained to the REDT via the caisson floor drain I system.
b. Reactor Equipment Drain Tank The REDT and associated REDT pumps aie located at the -66 foot level of the i reactor caisson access shafl. The contents of this 500 gallon capacity tank are pumped automatically to t'ne radwaste treatment system using either of the two REDT pumps.

NUCLEAR POWER GENERATION NUMBER ODCM HUMBOLDT BAY POWER PLANT VOLUME 4 REVISION 1, I A & 2 TITLE SAFSTOR OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL PAGE 11 11

c. Reactor Caisson Sump The reactor caisson sump and its associated reactor caisson sump pumps are located at the -66 foot level of the access shaft. The sump, which collects onesl groundwater in-leakage, has a capacity of 50 gallons. The pump may transfer its contents automatically through a liquid efIluent monitor to the Discharge Canal, 9n28l or may be valved to the radwaste treatment system if necessary for compliance with Specification 2.5 due to groundwater contamination.
d. Radwaste Building Sump The radwaste building sump tank, with a capacity of 250 gallons, is located beneath the radwaste building floos and receives liquids from drains in the vicinity of the radwaste building. The sump pump is located on the operating floor of the radwaste building (elevation +12 feet) over the sump tank. This pump automatically maintains the level of the tank and discharges to one of the waste receiver tanks.

3.2.2 Liquid Waste Treatment System The liquid waste treatment system processes, stores and provides for disposal of radioactively contaminated wastes and other liquid wastes that are potentially radioactively contaminated. These wastes are first collected by the radwaste collection system and are then pumped to the radwaste building on the nonh side of the refueling building. The major components of the liquid waste treatment system which are available for use to comply with Specification 2.5 include the:

waste receiver tanks (3) e radwaste concentrator e radwaste demineralizer e resin disposal tank e concentrated waste tanks (2) e waste hold tanks (2) e radwaste filters (2) e concentrator dnp receiver tank

a. Waste Receiver and Waste Hold Tanks The three 7,500 gallon carbon steel n dwaste receiver tank zie for wastes coming from the radwaste collection system. Two 7.500 carbon steel waste hold tanks are for storing treated wastes for retreatment or disposal. The tanks are located in an external section of the radwaste building, but are within the prefabricated steel radwaste enclosure.

TITLE SAFSTOR OFFSITE DOSE CALCUL ATION MANUAL PAGE 11-1 2 l
b. Radwaste Concentrator l The radwaste concentrator was designed to concentrate 7,500 gallons per week.

l' The concentrator consists of a vessel about 14 feet high and 24 inches in l diameter with a 40 square foot, callandria-type evaporating section near the l bottom. Steam from the Unit 1 or Unit 2 auxiliary steam system is fed to the j callandria outside of the tubes. Evaporation takes place within the tubes. The l l concentrator is located in a shielded cubicle in the radwaste building. l l

i Concentrator vapor goes to a condenser which is cooled with water from an independent cooling loop, and the condensate goes to the drip receiver tank for collection for further treatment or disposal. The concentrated radwaste is discharged to one of the two concentrated waste storage tanks. ,

Concentration by evaporation is generally the most appropaate method for l treatment ofliquids containing high total dissolved solids (TDS).

l

c. Radwaste Demineralizer The radwaste demineralizer is a single, mixed bed unit with a nominal flow of 20 I sms gpm and a flow capacity of 50 gpm. The demineralizer tank is 24 inches in diameter and was designed for 75 psig in accordance with the ASME Code.

There are no provisions for regeneration, spent resins are sluiced to the resin disposal tank. The demineralizer is located in a shielded cubicle in the radwaste building.

Demineralization is generally not an appropriate method to treat high TDS liquids.

d. Resin Disposal Tank This 10,000 gallon tank is located in an individual shielded vault within the radwaste building. It is accessed through a hatch in the top of the vault. All spent resins from the various demineralizers on site are routed to this tank. i
e. Concentrated Waste Tanks Two 5,000 gallon storage tanks are located in a shielded vault in the radwaste building. These tanks receive concentrated wastes from the concentrator. These tanks have no inherent means for draining and must be pumped down through access ports in the top of the tank.

Specification 2.10 limits the whole body dose equivalent from the Uranium fuel to no more than 25 mrem / year. The whole body dose is determined by summing the calculated ,

doses from the following:

a. Stack Noble gas releases, using equation (4-1).
b. Stack Particulate releases, using equation (4-3). I
c. Stack Tritium releases, using equation (4-4).
d. Liquid releases, using equation (2-1).

To this calculated exposure is added potential direct radiation exposure to an individual at the site boundary. The only portion of the site boundary where there is significant direct radiation is near the radwaste facilities at the [PG&E] North edge of the site. Due I

to the possibility that an individual at the shoreline (fishing, bird watching, etc.) may use the path at the brow of the cliff for access, the TLD stations along the path are used to estimate an annual radiation exposure. The time period used for this estimate is 67 hours7.75463e-4 days <br />0.0186 hours <br />1.107804e-4 weeks <br />2.54935e-5 months <br /> / year, given by Table E-5 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, as the maximum time for shoreline recreation for the Teen age group.

5.2 SKIN DOSE Specification 2.10 limits the dose to any organ (thyroid excepted) to less than or equal to 25 mrem / year. The dose to the skin is determined by suniming the calculated doses from the following:

a. Stack Noble gas releases, using equation (4-2).

b.- Stack Tritium releases, using equation (4-4). (For H-3, the exposure to all organs is essentially equal, so the whole body value may be used for skin.)

c. Liquid Tritium releases, using equation (2-1). (Use whole body value, as above, for H-3).

ODCM A."SENDIX B Revision 1, I A & 2 Page B-2 1.0 BASIS FOR INSTANTANEOUS X/O VALUE 1.1 The " annual average" value of this parameter was calculated (on the basis of historical meteorological monitoring data) for comparison of the plant operating releases with 10 CFR 50, Appendix 1. This calculation was performed using the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.109. For that calculation, the largest value ofX/Q was found to be 4 x 10 4 seconds / cubic meter.

1.2 That value of the parameter is not appropriate for the monitoring required by the SAFSTOR Technical Specifications, because it does not represent a "real-time" dispersion coeflicient. The appropriate value (for determining a stack monitor alarm setpoint) will be based on the atmospheric models of Regulatory Guide 1.145, Atmospheric Dispersion Modelsfor Potential Accident Consequence Assessments at Nuc/ car Power Plants. These models are intended to estimate "real time" conditions, rather than " annual average" values.

1.3 A conservative assumption used for calculating this dispersion coeflicient is that the release from the stack is during " fumigation" conditions (Pasquill stability class F), and that the plume proceeds downwind toward the rising terrain of Humboldt Hill. The dispersion coefficient is calculated for the fumigation condition (using the highest terrain at any particular distance to decrease the " effective stack height"), until the calculated ground level concentration is the same as the plume centerline concentration. From that distance, the dispersion is calculated for the plume centerline concentration. This calculation generally follows the guidance for the use of equations 4 and 5 of Regulatory )

Guide 1.145. l l

l.4 The calculations include the effects of the stack efIluent vertical velocity, which l increases the effective stack height. This plume rise is calculated from equation 5.1 of l " Meteorology and Atomic Energy - 1968" (except that the thermal buoyancy term is 1 neglected):

l h.= (d) x [w/u]" (B-1) where:

( h.= Plume rise, meters d= Stack nozzle diameter, meters w= Stack gas exit velocity, meters /sec u= Wind velocity, meters /sec L

L ODCM APPENDIX B Revision 1, I A & 2 Page B-3 1.5 The calculation values are a wind speed of 2 meters /second (commonly assumed for fumigation conditions). The stack nozzle diameter of 36 inches (0.914 meters) and stack flow rate of 31,000 cfm (14.6 cubic meters /sec result in a gas exit velocity of 22.3 meters /second, l Plume Rise = 0.914 x (22.3/2)" = 26.7 meters 1.6 Accordingly, the following calculations use an effective stack height of 103 meters, rather than the physical stack height of 76 meters (250 feet).

1.7 The concentration calculated for fumigation conditions at ground levelis:

1 X/Q = (B-2) 2.507 x U, x s, x h.

This calibration was re-examined after a test was performed to determine the effects of sample line pressure drop on the calibration of the stack sampler / monitor. This section documents the results of that test and review?

1.1.1 The two detector chambers were found to have essentially identical reduced pressures. The pressures in chambers 'A' and 'B' were -2.176 and -2.203 in. Hg. (relative to atmospheric pressure), respectively.

1.1.2 The effect of changing the stack particulate sample filter from 'diny' to

' clean' was small, with a pressure drop difference of 0.009 in. Hg. The chamber 'A' pressure was measured (relative to atmospheric pressure) at -2.167 for the ' clean' filter condition and at -2.176 in. Hg. for the

' dirty' filter conditions.

l 1.1.3 The true system flowrate was found to differ slightly from the flowrate indicated on the Photohelic Gauge when the system was set up in the then normal S.T.P. flow calibration configuration (flow calibrator inlet at atmospheric pressure), but the calibration was accurate at the normal system conditions (approximately 2 in. Hg. vacuum). The test pressure / flow measurement results are summarized below:

conditions would have been lower by a factor of 0.909 due to the lower l

pressure and higher temperature:

The correction factor for

this effect is about 1.08 (29.92/27.74). If this correction is applied to the l average of the 10 measurements above, the resulting calibration would be l 1.08 x 2.88E-8 = 3.11E-8 pC/cc per epm. This is essentially the same value j as the one originally established (3.lE-8), so the error produced by
neglecting the sample line pressure drop effectively canceled out the error i

resulting from incorrectly interpreting the original calibration.

1.5. The flow control system calibration (S.T.P. 3.16.7) was revised so that the Photobelic Gauge metering system flowrate is checked at the operating absolute pressure condition.
