1. . INTRODUCTION In accordance with the Reporting Requirements of Technical Specification 5.6.3 I l applicable during the reporting period, this report summarizes the Effluent Release Data for Peach Bottom Atomic Power Station Units 2 and 3 for the period January 1, 1998 through December 31,1998. The notations E and E- are used to denote positive l and negative exponents to the base 10, respectively.

The release of radioactive materials during the reporting period was within the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual Specification limits.

l The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) was revised during the reporting L period. ODCM Revision 11, approved on 4/16/98 and issued July 1,1998, included the following changes:

1. Requirements for monitoring and processing gaseous effluents were clarified,
a. ODCMS 3.8.C.5 : The APPLICABILITY statement was changed.
b. ODCMS 3.8.C.5 : Auxiliary Boilers waste oil burning exhaust added. '
c. ODCMS BASES : New section to define significant releases.

i 2. Incorporate REMP (Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program) changes.

a. ODCM Table VII.A-1 : Changed the 2 air particulate / iodine sampling station designation to 1C and distance from SE at 4,661 to SSE at 4,513 feet.
3. Particulate and lodine dose calculations changes.
a. ODCM IV.A.2 : The Iodine-131 method for calculating dose rates was deleted. The isotopic method was retained.
b. ODCM Table IV. A.2 : The critical organs used to determine the dose rates were changed from child thyroid and child lung to child thyroid and teenager lung,
c. ODCM IV. A.2 : Auxiliary boiler stack release equation was moved from IV.F to IV.A.2.
d. ODCM IV.C : The Iodine-131 method for calculating dose was deleted.

The isotopic method was retained.

e. ODCM Table IV.C.1 : The critical organs used to determine dose were I

changed from infant thyroid and infant liver to infant thyroid, infant liver and infant bone.

1 i

I I

I

f. ODCM IV.C : Auxiliary boiler stack release equation was moved from IV.F to IV.C.
4. Added Laundry Drain Filter as a Treatment path.
a. ODCMS 3.8.B.4 : Added floor drain filter to list of radwaste subsystems used for processing liquid effluent releases,
b. ODCMS 4.8.B.4.5 : Requirement added to demonstrate operability of the laundry drain filter.
c. ODCMS Bases : Added a section to the Liquid Radwaste Effluents section to clarify types of water to be processed by the laundry drain l filter i

I

5. Administrative and Minor Technical Changes.

l

a. ODCM 111.B : The term discharge structure was changed to discharge i pathway.
b. ODCM IV.E.1 : Removed sections referencing equipment no longer j used.
c. ODCM Table Vll. A-1111. Waterborne Surface : Compensatory action frequency changed from daily to once per calendar day.
d. ODCM Vil : Updated the Offgas Radwaste Treatment System and Ventilation Exhaust Waste Treatment System Diagrams.
e. ODCMS 3.8.C : References to equipment that is no longer used was deleted.
f. ODCMS 3.8.B.4 : The word or was removed from 3.8.B.4.c.
g. ODCMS 3.8.C.4 : Gross activity was changed to activity in the Required Compensatory Measure A.2.
h. ODCMS 3.8.E.3 : The alternate to the EPA Environmental Radioactivity Intercomparison Studies Program was changed to an Interlaboratory Comparison Program traceable to NIST.
i. ODCMS 3.10.3 : The option for submitting the meteorological data in the Radiation Dose Assessment Report was clarified.

2

l The station Process Control Program (PCP) was revised on 1/31/98. The incorporated changes were: 1

1. Added commitments for tracking purposes.
2. Several changes that apply only to Limerick.

The noble gas Total Curie and Air Dose values in this report were generated by using baseline isotopic noble gas grab sample data in conjunction with the continuous noble

_ gas effluent monitor information.

There was one unplanned release of liquid radioactive material.

There was one abnormal gaseous radioactive material release event.

1. Event description - This event was a continuation of the high pressure service water (HPSW) event discovered on 11/1/97 through routine sampling of the effluent to the discharge canal.

Investigation of this event determined that a trace amount of condensate stay-full or primary coolant water was leaking past the Unit 2 " A" residual Heat Removal (RHR) heat exchanger tube to the "A" loop of the HPSW system. One leaking tube was plugged.

It was estimated that the contaminated water released 4.35E-4 mrem total body dose to the discharge canal from 1/1/98 to 3/31/98. This dose was well below the limits specified in the ODCM.

Analysis of Release - A representative sample was analyzed for the parameters of a radioactive effluent release. The dose contributions and isotope quantities from this continuous release were added to this Radioactive Effluent Release Report for the applicable reporting periods.

1. Event Description - During 1998 several potential unmonitored release paths were discovered in the turbine building and off-gas building. These release points were due, in part, to the aging of caulking at concrete-to-metal interfaces.

l As each release point was discovered, the direction of the air flow was determined. If flow was out of the structure, a continuous air sample was obtained. No detectable activity was measured at any of the release points.

. 7. Minimum Detectable Concentrations:

A. Liquid:

If a radionuclide was not detected, zero activity was reported for that isotope. A zero activity indicates that no activity was positively detected in any sample when samples were analyzed with techniques which achieved the required Lower Limits of Detection (LLD) as specified in Offsite Dose

- Calculation Manual Specification Table 4.8.B.1 Radioactive Liquid Waste Sampling and Analysis. In all cases, these L.LDs were less than the values required by Offsite Dose Calculation Manual Specifications.
