Environmental Radiation Monitorina Program The above listed representatives from the. State of Texas, HL&P, and the NRC met to discuss the implementation of the full-scale environmental monitoring program around the STP as described in Modification No. 4 to the NRC/ State of Texas Environmental Monitoring Cooperative Agreement No. NRC-31-83-671.
The interface between HL&P and the TDH in coordinating the efforts to collect and split samples of environmental media was discussed.
Samples
' which were discussed during the meeting included air,' surface water, milk, fish or invertebrates, food products or vegetation, and shoreline sediment.
The following items were agreed to during this meeting:
a.
_ Starting in January 1987, the full-scale environmental monitoring program will be implemented by the State of Texas at the STP site as state resources will permit, b.
-The TDH, in cooperation with HL&P, will install by the end of 1986, two stationary continuous air samplers. One air sampler will be located in close proximity to the HL&P air sampler at HL&P's Station No.16, which is located approximately 0.7 mile north northwest of the plant at the exclusion area boundary along highway Texas 521.
The second air sampler will be located next to the HL&P control air sampler at HL&P Station No. 37, which is located approximately 11 miles west southwest of the plant at the Palacios electrical
3 substation.
The air particulate filter and charcoal cartridge samples will be collected weekly by TDH personnel'or their designated representative, c.
Surface water samples will be collected and split monthly between-HL&P and the TDH.
The samples will be routinely collected by HL&P personnel using the currently installed continuous composite-samplers.
TDH personnel may periodically accompany HL&P personnel.
Samples will be split from HL&P's upstream control Station No. 226 located on the Colorado River at the Celanese plant and from HL&P's Station No. 227 located on the west bank of the Colorado River approximately 1.5 miles downstream of the STP discharge across from river channel marker No. 22.
The TDH will periodically provide spiked water samples to the HL&P's Radiological Laboratory as a quality control check.
d.
Milk samples are not routinely collected by HL&P since there are no dairies located in the vicinity of the plant and no milk producing animals raised near the plant site.
If milk should become available for sampling, samples will be collected and split between HL&P and the TDH at that time on a monthly frequency.
e.
Fish or invertebrates will be split from HL&P's catch semiannually.
The samples will be split according to species and preserved by the licensee until transported to the TDH laboratory for analysis.
If the catch does not produce enough sample for splitting, duplicate samples of similar or analogous species may be substituted for analysis.
The TDH will provide splits of additional fish or invertebrate samples periodically as a quality control check.
The fish samples will be caught primarily in the Colorado River between channel markers 1 and 27 which is designated as HL&P's Station No. 218.
f.
Food products or vegetation samples will be collected by TDH personnel annually at the time of harvest and split with HL&P.
The samples should be of principal food products or vegetation grown near an area having the highest probability of being in a downwind direction from the plant.
Leafy vegetables from a private garden or farm in the immediate vicinity of the plant would be an ideal sample.
g.
A shoreline sediment sample will be collected and split jointly by the TDH and HL&P personnel annually.
The shoreline sediment sample will be taken on the shore of the Colorado River where the plant blowdown discharge channel empties into the river.
This sample location is designated HL&P Stetion No. 233 located approximately 4.3 miles southeast of the plant.
3.
TLD Direct Radiation Monitoring Network The initial NRC environmental radiation monitoring TLD network stations for the STP were established during the period October 15-17, 1986.
