AFFIDAVIT OF ROBERT W. FELL IN SUPPORT OF NRC STAFF'S P.ESPONSE TO Tile APPEAL BOARD'S QUESTION CONCERNING CCNC CONTENTIONS 16,17 AND 18 I, Robert W. Fell, being duly sworn, do depose end state:
- 1. I am a Nuclear Engineer in the PWR-A division within the Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation, NRC. A copy of my professional qualifi-cations is attached. I have knowledge of the matters set forth herein with respect to environmental sampling for radioisotopic determinations.
The statements made are true and correct to the best of my knowledge, information and belief.
- 2. This affidavit addresses the differences in sampling frequency between the environmental monitoring progran proposed at the CP stage and that proposed at the O.L. stage with re6pect to CCNC's Contentions 16,17 and 18.
of identified The sample locations concern are in CCNC Contentions 16, 17 and 18, as surface water sample 26, groundwater sample location 39, and drinking water sample point 40.
8602270583 860224 PDR ADOCK 05000400 0 PDR
-3_
These matters are addressed individually in the following paragraphs.
- 3. The sampling frequencies and analysis methods reviewed in the Final Environmental Statement (FES-OL) are identical to those required by the NRC in the Branch Technical Position dated November 19, 1979, "An Acceptable Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program" . O These requirements are part of the licensing review and will be reflected in the Padiological Effluent Technical Specifications. A copy of the Branch Technical Position was sent to all power reactor licensees and holders of construction permits on November 27, 1979. This document was received by the applicant after the Environmental Report-Construction Permit (ER-CP) was issued. Therefore , it would not be unexpected if differences e:<ist between the ER-CP and the ER-OL. Even though dif-forences do exist, the Applicant does comply with current licensing crite-ria for sampling location, frequency, and analysis methodology.
- 4. A review of the sampling locations listed above revealed some differences in sampling frequencies for these locations between the ER-OL and the ER-CP. A description of the differences and my technical evalu-ation follow . In summary, however, it is judged that the sampling schemes listed in the ER-OL are better than those listed in the ER-CP.
-1/ The environmental monitoring program is summarized in Table 5-4 of the FES-OL. This is identical to Table 6.1.5-1 of the ER-OL in regard to CCNC's Contentions 16,17 and 18.
Surface Water, Sample Location 26, Spillway on Main Reservoir, '4.6 Miles, South Sector of Site
- 5. The ER-OL specifies a composite sample to be collected over a 31 day period. At the end of each period, a monthly gross beta analysis is performed and a gamma isotopic determination is performed. By combining part of these monthly composite samples, a quarterly composite sample is prepared for tritium determination.
The ER-CP specified weekly grab samples for this sample location . A portion of each weekly sample was utilized for gross beta anelysis each week; the belance of each weekly sample was saved for three months to provide a composite sample for quarterly gamma isotopic and tritium determinations.
The ER-OL specifies a better way for sampling by utilizing a composite sampler to collect small aliquots 2_/ over 31 days. Because small aligout size samples are taken at very small intervals (perhaps as small as every 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />), the monthly composite sample , because of its higher sampling frequency of more than once per week, is a better representation of the average reservoir discharge than can be obtained by composite weekly grab samples. As a result , one monthly . composite sample for beta analysis , for example, would provide a more accurate representation of radioactive particles that were released over the spillway than the four weekly samples with gross beta analysis results (as specified in the ER-CP). In addition, there is a higher probability that a 2/ An aliquot is a small fixed volume container.
significant release of radioactivity could go undetected by weekly grab samples than for the composite samples with monthly analysis checks.
G. Based on the above facts, my conclusions for this sample loca-tion are a) The monthly composite sample provides a more accurate and reliable representation than the weekly grab samples; b) The monthly isotopic gamma analysis specified in the ER-OL is at a greater frequency than called for by the ER-CP and there-fore is more conservative.
c) The Quarterly determination for tritium specified-in the ER-OL is at the same frequency as in the ER-CP; but, the composite samples used to provide the data are more representative of the average reservoir discharge than called for in the ER-CP, Groundwater, sample location 39, Onsite Deep Well in The Proximity of The Diabase Dikes.
- 7. The EP-OL specifies taking a quarterly grab sample and per-forming each quarter a gamma isotopic and tritium determination.
The ER-CP specifies a monthly grab sample for gross beta par-ticulate analysis and to make up a composite sample for quarterly gamma isotopic and tritium determinations.
- 8. The above two sampling analysis schemes are equivalent. This conclusion is based on the following evaluation.
There are several factors that affect groundwater contamination by a underground leak from the plant. The velocity of groundwater in
the aquifer is very slow. 3_/ In addition, because of the filtering effects of the soil, any released radioactive particulates are readily retarded from migration by attaching themselves to soil particles; also, soluble elements
, may chemically react with soil ingredients which will remove them from solution . The overall result of the filtering effects by the soil and the slow ground water velocity is that changes in groundwater concentration due to a plant underground leak will be slow in detection. Another fact to consider is that seepage into the groundwater from postulated cracks in the concrete basemat , if any, and walls of a nuclear power plant is extremely unlikely. On consideration of these facts , the sampling frequercy of a deep water well on the site does not have to be as frequent as, for example, rivers or reservoirs where radioactive discharges do occur. Accordingly, there is no increase in safety for sampling a deep site well more often than once per quarter (which is the Bronch Technical Position). If the well after sampling is found to contain any significant concentration of radioisotopes, or if accidental spills do occur at the plant , the sampling frequency can then be increased to determine increasing or decreasing trends.
Unlike the ER-CP, the ER-OL does not specify a gross beta analysis on the sample. The soil will filter out most if not all the radioactive par-ticulates which would otherwise be detected by gross beta analysis.

Frch 1974.
Therefore , performing a grors beta analysis on a deep well sample will not provide any meaningful information. A Drinking Water, Sample Point 40, 5/ Lillington's Water Municipality,15.0 Miles, SSE of Site
- 9. The ER-OL specifies a monthly composite sample to perform both the monthly gross beta and gamma isotopic determination and then later for a quarterly trituim determination. If from the plant discharge data, the projected dose for the drinking water pathway exceeds 1 mrem / year, then sample must be every 2 weeks for I-131.
The ER-CP specifies a weekly grab sample to perform a weekly gross beta analysis. The samples are also used to prepare a composite sample for the quarterly gamma isotopic and trituim determinations.
The sampling frequency and analysis scheme required by the ER-OL is better than that required by the ER-CP. This is based on the following facts:
a) a composite sampler is utilized to obtain a sample that al-most continuously represents the drinking water consumed over the sampling period of 1 nonth. As discussed in paragraph 5 above, this is a better sampling method than weekly grab samples.
4,/ The Branch Technical Position does not call for deep well gross beta analysis.
5_/ It is the Staff's understanding that in 1984 the sample location was moved to provide for a permanent sample station with access to elec-trical power. The new location is 1/3 of a mile downstream of the Lillington water intake (the old sample location).
-7_
b) The analysis for gamma isotopic determinations are per-formed more often than required by the ER-CP. Even
. though the analysis for radioactive particulates (gross beta) is performed once each month, the sample is a better representation of the water consumed over that period than can be obtained by weekly grab samples.
c) A " flag signal" (i .e . the projected dose by plant monthly analysis for the drinking water pathway) is utilized to focus attention on potential problems by increasing sam-pling frequency and analysis for major dose contributors.
- 10. Essed on the above considerations, I conclude that the sampling methodology for the subject locations in the ER-OL is equal to or better than that specified in the ER-CP.
