Gentlemen:
The Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report is hereby submitted in accordance with the requirements of Reference (1). This report also contains the information required by Reference (2) and (3).
This repon is considered a single submittal for the two unit site. This report combines those sections that are common to both units at the site. However, where the two units have separate radweste systems, the report does specify the releases of radioactive material from each unit. In reference to this, Unit 1 and Unit 2 have shared radwaste systems for gaseous elevated releases
' and for liquid releases. The report format is summarized on the index.
m There were two abnormal gaswus releases during the report period. They are described as follows.
ThE first release occurred on September 29,1997, and was caused by a. leak from the Unit 1
- Pressurizer Relief Tank during a Reactor Containment Purge. Although the release was unplanned, it was determined to be within the Technical Specification /Offsite Dose
- Calculation Manual release limits. The discharge activity of 30.5 curies was comprised of noble gas. Corrective Actions associated with this event are documented in Condition Report

Although the effluent monitor alarm was unplanned, it was determined to be within the Technical Specification /Offsite Dose Calculation Manual release limits. The discharge activity of 0.465 curies was pri:narily comprised ofnoble gas. Corrective Actions associated with this event are described in Condition Report CR 971743.
. There were no abnormal liquid releases during the report period.
