ZION Revision 2 March 1998 CHAPTER 10 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENT TREATMENT AND MONITORING 10.1 AIRBORNE RELEASES 10.1.1 System Description A simplified gaseous radweste and gaseous effluent flow diagram is provided in Figure 10-1. The principal release points for potentially radioactive airbome effluents are the two auxiliary building ventilation stacks (designated Unit 1 Ventilation Stack and Unit 2 Ventilation Stack in Figure 10-1). In the classification scheme of Section 4.1.4, each is classified as a ground level release point (see Table A-1 of Appendix A).

10.1.1.1 Waste Gas Holdup System The waste gas holdup system is designed and installed to reduce radioactive gaseous effluents by collecting reactor coolant system off1ases from the reactor coolant system and providing for dt:lav or holdup to reduce the total radioactivity by radiodecay prior to release to the enviro...nent. The system is described in Section 11.1.2.3 of the Zion FSAR.

10.1.1.2 Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System Ventilation exhaust treatment systems are designed and installed to reduce gaseous radiolodine or radioactive material in particulate form in gaseous effluents by passing ventilation or vent exhaust gases through charcoal adsorbers and/or HEPA filters prior to release to the environment. Such a system is not considered to have any effect on noble gas effluents. The ventilation exhaust treatment systems are shown in Figure 10-1.

Engineered safety features atmospheric cleanup systems are not considered to be ventilation exhaust treatment system components.

10.1.2 Radiation Monitors 10.1.2.1 Final Ventilation Stack Effluent Monitors Monitors 1RIA-PR49 (Unit 1) and 2RIA-PR49 (Unit 2) continuously monitor the final effluent from the ventilation stacks. Both ventilation stack monitors feature automatic l isokinetic sampling and grab sampling.

During normal operation, nll three noble gas channels (low range, mid range, high range) are on line and active. A high alarm condition from the mid and/or high range noble gas channels isolates the particulate, iodine, low range noble gas and mid range noble gas channels. The high alarm signal diverts sample flow through a sample cart (particulate and lodine) and then to the high range noble gas channel.

zior2 doc 10-1 J

ZION Revision 2 March 1998 Upon receipt of the high alarm, the control room operator will notify the health physics group and reduce the release rate as appropriate. Due to conservatism built into the setpoint calculations (Section 10.1.3), there is an adequate margin between the high alarm setpoint and the release limit to accommodate this procedure.

Pertinent information on these monitors is provided in UFSAR Table 11.5-1.

10.1.2.2 Auxiliary Building Ventilatun Effluent Monitors l Monitors 1RT-PR25 (Unit 1),2RT-PR25 (Unit 2) and ORE-0014 (common) continuously monitor the effluent from the auxiliary building ventilation stacks.

No automatic isolation or control functions are performed by these monitors. On high alarm, the control room operator will notify the health physis group and reduce the release rate as appropriate. Because of the conservatism built into the setpoint calculations (Section 10.1.3) there is an adequate margin between the setpoint and release limit to accommodate this procedure.

Pertinent information on monitor ORE-0014 is provided in UFSAR Table 11.5-2.

10.1.2.3 Containment Purge Effluent Monitors Monitors 1RT-PR09 (Unit 1) and 2RT-PR09 (Unit 2) continuously monitor the eftiuent from the Unit 1 and Unit 2 containments, respectively. On high alarm, the monitors automatically initiate closure of the four air-operated butterfly valves (RV0001/2/3/4 purge valves for each unit).

Pertinent information on these monitors is provided in UFSAR Tables 11.5-1 and 11.5-2.

Monitors 1(2)RIA-PR40 continuously monitor the Unit 1(2) atmosphere. On high alarm, the monitors automatically initiate closure of valves RV0001-RV0006 inclusive.

10.1.2.4 Waste Gas Decay Tank Monitors Monitors OR1 A-PR10 (Channels 1 and 3) continuously monitor the noble gas activity released from the gas decay tanks.

On high alarm, the monitors automatically initiate closure of the valve ORCV-WG014 thus terminating the release.

Pertinent information on these monitors is provided in UFSAR Section 11.5.2.2.1 and Table 11.5-2.

The monitor is capable of collecting particulate and iodine samples for post release quantification.

ZION Revision 2 March 1998 10.1.2.5 Condenser Air Ejector Monitors (q

, Monitors 1RE-0015 and 2RE 0015 continuously monitor the condenser air ejector gas from Units 1 and 2, respectively. No control device is initiated by these channels.

Pertinent information on these monitors is provided in UFSAR Table 11.5-2.

10.1.3 Alarm and Trip Setpoints 10.1.3.1 Setpoint Calculation The effluent noble gas monitor setpoints are conservatively based on the assumption that a release is occurring simultaneously for all seven gaseous release points at the maximum I

expected flow rate for each pathway. Furthermore, the setpoints are chosen such that an l occurrence of simultaneous high alarms on all seven pathways would correspond to a l station release rate of one half of the Technical Specification limit.

ZION Revision 2 March 1990 The summations are over noble gas radionuclides 1.

f. Fractional Radionuclide Composition The release rate of noble gas radionuclide i divided by the total release rate of all noble gas radionuclides.

Ou Total Allowed Release Rate, [pCi/sec)

Vent Release The total allowed release rate of all noble gas radionuclides released as vent releases.

The remaining parameters in Equation 10-2 have the same definitions as in Equation A-8 of Appendix A. The remaining parameters in Equation 10-3 have the same definition as in Equation A 9 of Appendix A.

Equation 10-2 is based on Equation A-8 of Appendix A and the RETS restriction on whole body dose rate (500 mrem /yr) due te noble gases released in gaseous effluents (see Section A.1.3.1 of Appendix A). Eq ation 10-3 is based on Equation A-9 of Appendix A and the RETS restriction on skin dose rate (3000 mrem /yr) due to noble gases released in gaseous effluents (see Section A.1.3.2 of Appendix A).

Equations 10-2 and 10-3 can each be solved for a value of Ow. The monitor alarm and trip setpoints will be established based on the equation which yields the smaller release limit, Qu. The exact settings are selected to ensure that 10 CFR 20 limits are not exceeded.

Calibration methods and surveillance frequency for the monitors will be conducted as specified in the RETS.

10.1.3.3 Release Mixture In the determination of alarm and trip setpoints, the radioactivity mixture in exhaust air is assumed to have the radionuclide composition of Table 10-1. This mixture was conservatively chosen based on station isotopic release data averaged over a period of 7 years (1977 through June 1984).

10.1.3.4 Conversion Factors The response curves used to determine the monitor count rates are chosen in order to best match the reference noble gas mix. Because Xe-133 and Xe-135 comprise 83.6% and 8.79% of this mix respectively, the Xe-133/Xe-135 90%/10% curves are used to ensure that the setpoints would be conservative with raspect to quantity.

Example curves are shown in Figure 10-5.

Fu = Total Flow in Monitored Flow Path [cc/sec) i i F., = Flow from fan i in path p. [cc/sec)

N, = Number of fans, in operation The maximum flow for each fan is used for setpoint calculations because this maximizes the flow, and therefore minimizes the calculated monitor sensitivity which is conservative.

Pertinent data for the fans is provided in Table 10-2. l l

HVAC flows for the remaining monitors are conservatively fixed at upper bound values.

They are listed below.

Under normal operating conditions, it is difficult to apportion the radioactivity between the units. Consequently, allocation normally is made evenly between units.

ZION Revision 2 March 'i998 10.1.5 Dose Projections for Batch Releases Projected doses are calculated before purging the containment or venting the waste gas I decay tanks. Per procedure, a representative sample is obtained and analyzed, and the I total tr.,l ease is calculated. Prior to the release the projected dose rate (in mrem / year) is calculated based on the assumption that the release is continuous for the entire year.

10.2 LIQUID RELEASES 10.2.1 System Description A simplified liquid waste processing diagram is provided in Figure 10-2. A simplified liquid effluent flow diagram is provided in Figure 10-3.

The liquid radwaste treatment system is designed and installed to reduce radioective liquid effluents by collecting the liquids, providing for retention or holdup, and providing for treatment by demineralizer for the purpose of reducing the total radioactivity prior to release to the environment. The system is described in Section 11.1.3 of the Zion FSAR.

10.2.1.1 Lake Discharge Tanks There are two take discharge tanks (OA and OB,30,000-gallon capacity each) which receive liquid wasie before discharge to Lake Michigan.

10.2.1.2 Turbine Building Fire Sump The turbine building floor and equipment drain tanks receive turbine building waste which is released to the fire sump for processing by the waste water treatment facility and ultimate discharge into Lake Michigan. The discharge constitutes a low level radioactive release.

10.2.2 Radiation Monitors 10.2.2.1 Lake Discharge Tank Monitors Monitors ORT-PR04 and ORT PROS are used to monitor all releases from the lake discharge tanks. On high alarm, the monitor automatically initiates closure of a valve to prevent further releases. The valve is located over 250 feet downstream of the monitor to allow closure priorto exceeding release limits. The monitor setpoints are found by solving Equation 10-5 for release setpoint P.

Pertinent information on these moqitors is provided in UFSAR Table 11.5-3.

10.2.2.2 Turbine Building Fire Sump Monitor Monitor ORT-PR25 continuously monitors the discharge line from the fire sump pumps to j the waste water treatment facility. On high alarm, the monitor automatically trips all of the fire sump pumps, thereby containing the liquid in the turbine building. The monitor setpoints are found by solving Equation 10-5 for release setpoint P.

Pertinent information on the monitor is provided in UFSAR Table 11.5-3.

10.2.4 Allocation of Effluents from Common Release Points Radioactive liquid effluents released from the lake discharge tank and turbine building fire sump are comprised of contributions from both units. Under normal operating conditions, it is difficult to apportion the radioactivity between the units. Consequently, allocation is based on the unit discharge canal used for dilution.

O Q 10.2.5 Projected Concentrations for Releases Projected concentrations are calculated before initiating liquid discharges. Per procedure, a representative sample is obtained and analyzed and the projected concentrations are calculated using conservative dilution flows prior to release. Because the fire sump is a continuous a,sase, it is sampled daily and isotopic analyses are performed weekly.

Doses due to liquid effluents are calculated as required by the RETS.

10.3 SOLIDIFICATION OF WASTE / PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM The process control program (PCP) contains the sampling, analysis, and formulation determination by which solidification of radioactive wastes from liquid systems is ensured.

ZION Revision 2 March 1998 12.1 DEFINITIONS (O)

~

12.1.1 ACTION shall be that part of the sections which prescribes remedial measures required under designated conditions.

12.1.2 A BATCH RELEASE is the discharge of liquid wastes of a oiscrete volume. Prior to campling for analyses, each batch shall be isolated and then thoroughly mixed to assure representative sampling.

12.1.3 A CHANNEL CAllBRATION. shall be the adjustment, as necessary, of the channel such that it responds with the necessary range and accu e.cy to known values of input. The CHANNEL CAllBRATION shall encompass the entire channelincluding the sensors (where possible),

alarm interlock and/or trip functions and shall include the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST.

The CHANNEL CALIBRATION may be performed by any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps such that the entire channel is calibrated.

12.1.4 A CHANNEL CHECK shall be the qualitative assessment of channel behavior during operation by observation. This determination shallinclude, where possible, comparison of the channel indication and/or status with other indications and/or status derived from independent INSTRUMENT CHANNELS measuring the same parameter.

12.1.5 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL CHECK shall be:

a. Instruments-The injection of a simulated signal (s) into the channel as close to the primary sensor (s) as practicable to verify OPERABILITY, including all channel outputs, as appropriate.

/~N b. Logics-The application of input signals, or the operation of relays or switch

(_) contacts, in all the combinations required to produce the required decision outputs including the operation of all ACTUATION DEVICES. Where practicable, the test shallinclude the operation of the ACTUATED EQUIPMENT as well (i.e. pumps will be started, valves operated, etc.).

12.1.6 A COMPOSITE SAMPLE is one in which the quantity of liquid sample is proportional to the quantity of liquid waste discharged and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen which is representative of the liquids released.

12.1.7 A CONTINUOUS RELEASE is the discharge of liquid or gaseous wastes of a nondiscrete volume (e.g. from a volume or system that has an input flow during the release).

12.1.8 A CONTINUOUS SAMPLING FREQUENCY is uninterrupted sampling with the exception of sampling interruptions of short duration for routine activities (e.g. filter replacements).

12.1.9 DOSE EQUIVALENT l-131 shall be that concentration of I-131 (microcurie / gram) which alone would produce the same thyroid dose as the quantity and isotopic mixture of I-131, f-132, l 1-133,1-134, and 1-135 actually present. The Thyroid Dose Conversion factors used for this calculation shall be those listed in Table lll of TID-14844, " Calculation of Distance Factors for Power and Test Reactor Sites" or Table E-7 of NRC Regulatory Guide 1.109 Rev.1, dated October,1977.

12.1.10 MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC means any individual except when that individualis receiving an occupational dose.

/'N ht12r2 doc 12-1

ZION Revision 2 March 1998 12.1.11 OCCUPATIONAL DOSE means the dose received by an individual in the course of employment in which the individual's assigned duties involve exposure to radiation and/or radioactive material from licensed and unlicensed sources of radiation, whether in the possession of the licensee or other person. Occupational dose does not include dose frcm background radiation, as a patient from medical practices, from voluntary participation in medical research programs, or as a member of the public.

12.1.12 A system, subsystem, train, component or device shel' oe OPERABLE or have OPERABILITY when it is capable of performing its specified functiNis), and when all necessary attendant instrumentation, controls, electrical power, cooling or seal water, lubrication or other auxiliary equipment that are required for the system, subsyt tein, train, component, o,-device to perform its function (s) are also capable of performing their related support function (s).

12.1.13 OPERATING is defined as performing the intended function in tne intended manner.

12.1.14 The OPERATING CYCLE shall be the interval between the end of one major refueling outage

) and the end of the next subsequent major refueling outage per unit.

12.1.15 An OPERATIONAL MODE (i.e., Mode) shall correspond to any one inclusive combination of core reactivity condition, power level, and average reactor coolant temperature specified in Table 1.1 of the Technical Specifications, when fuel assemblies are pre',ent in the reactor vessel.

12.1.16 The PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP) shall contain the current formulas, sampling, analyses, test, and determinations to be made to ensure that processirig and packaging of solid radioactive wastes based on demonstrated processing of actual or simulated wet solid wastes will be accomplished in such a way as to assure compliance with 10CFR Parts 20,61, and 71, State regulations, burial ground requirements, and other requirements governing the disposal of solid radioactive waste.

12.1.17 PURGE OR PURGING is the controlled process of discharging air or gas from a confinement to maintain temperature, pressure, humidity, concentration or other operating condition, in such a manner, that replacement air or gas is required to purify the confinement.

12.1.18 RATED THERMAL POWER shall be a total steady state reactor core heat transfer rate to the ,

reactor coolant of 3250 MWt.

12.1.19 The REACTOR PRESSURE shall be in the pressure in the steam space of the pressurizer.

12.1.20 The SITE BOUNDARY shall be that line beyond which the land is not ownec leased or otherwise controlled by the licensee.

l 12.1.21 SOLIDIFICATION shall be the conversion of radioactive liquid, resin and sludge wastes from l liquid systems into a form that meets shipping and burial site requirements.

12.1.22 A SOURCE CHECK shall be the qualihtive assessment of channel response when the l channel sensor is exposed to a radioa'uve source.

t 12.1.23 The SURVEILLANCE FREQUENCY NOTATION specified for the performance of Surveillance Requirements shall correspond to the intervals defined in Table 12.1-1.

12.1.24 THERMAL POWER shall be the total reactor core heat transfer rate to the reactor coolant.

i the licensee. j l

12.1.26 VENTILATION EXHAUST TREATMENT SYSTEM shall be any system designed and installed to reduce gaseous radiciodine or radioactive material in particulate form in effluents by i

passing ventilation or vent exhaust gases through charcoal adsorbers and/or HEPA filters for the purpose of removing bdines er particulates from the gaseous exhaust stream prior to the release to the environment. Such a system is not considered to have any affect on noble gas effluents.

12.1.27 VENTING is the controlled process of discharging air or gas from a confinement to maintain temperature, pressure, humidity, concentration or other operating condition, in such a manner that replacement air or gas is not provided or required during venting. Vent, used in system names, does not imply a venting process.

12.1.28 WASTE GAS HOLDUP SYSTEM shall be any system designed and installed to reduce radioactive gaseous effluents by collecting Reactor Coolant System oC-gases from the Reactor Coolant System and providing for delay or holdup for the purpose of reducing the total radion.divity prior to release to the environment.

Where:

LLD is the lower limit of detection as defined above in picocuries (pCi) per unit mass or volume, sois the square root of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (as counts per minute),

A is the number of gamma rays ernitted per disintegration for gamma ray radionuclide analysis (A = 1.0) for gross alpha, strontium, and tritium measurement.

E is the counting efficiency (as counts per gamma),

V is the sample size (in units of mass or volume),

2.22 is the number of disintegrations per minute per picocurie, Y is the fractional radiochemical yield when applicable (otherwise Y = 1.0)

A is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide, and at is the elapsed time between midpoint of sample collection and time of counting (for plant effluents, not environmental sample).

The value of s oused in the calculation of the LLD for a detection system shall 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 theon.tically predicted variance. In calculating the LLD for a radionuclide determined by gamma ray spectrometry, the background shall include the typical contributions of other radionuclides normally present in the samples.

Typical values of E, V, Y, and At shall be used in the calculation. The background count rate is calculated from the background counts that are determined to be within i one FWHM (Full Width at Half Maximum) eriergy band about the energy of the gamma ray peak used for the quantitative analysis for that radionuclide.

Under these circumstances, it will be more appropriate to calculate the concentrations of such radionuclides using observed ratios with those radionuclides which are measurable.

b. A COMPOSITE SAMPLE is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is proportional to the quantity of liquid waste discharged and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen which is representative of the liquids released.
1) To be representative of the quantities and concentrations of radioactive materials in liquid effluents, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite sample to be representative of the effluent release.
2) The weekly and monthly Proportional Composite samples are not required provided that (1) the analysis required for each of these composite samples has been run on each batch discharged, and (2) a monthly record of radionuclides discharged (isotope and ,

quantity) is maintained. I

(~~ c. A BATCH RELEASE is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for Q} analyses, each batch shall be isolated, and then thoroughly mixed to assure representative sampung.

j

d. A CONTINUOUS RELEASE is the discharge of liquid wastes of a nondiscrete volume; e.g., from a volume of system that has an input flow during the continuous release.
e. The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification applies exclusively are the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141,'

and Ce-144. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be detected and reported.

Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the above nuclides, shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses shall be reported as "less than" the nuclide's LLD, and shall not be reported as being present at the LLD level for that nuclide. The "less than" values shall not be used in the required dose calculations.

ZION Revision 2 March 1998 Bases 12/3.2.C This Section is provided to implement the requirements of Sections ll.A. Ill.A and IV.A of Appendix I,10CFR Part 50. The limiting Condition of Operation implements the guides set forth in Section ll.A 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 tne releases of radioactive materialin liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." Also, for fresh water sites with drinking water supplies, which can be potentially affected by plant operations, there is reasonable assurance that the operation of the facility will not result in radionuclide concentrations in the finished drinking water that are excess of the requirements of 40CFR 141. The dose calculations in the ODCM implement the requirements in Section Ill.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix l be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that the actual exposure of an individual through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The equations specified in the ODCM for calculating the dose due to the actual release rate of radioactive materials in liquid effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109; Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Radioactive Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10CFR Part 50, Appendix 1, Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guides 1.113, " Estimating Aquatic Dispersion of Effluents from Accidental and Routine Reactor Releases for the Purpose of Implementing Appendix I," April 1977. l This Section applies to the release of liquid effluents from each unit at the site.

With the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program not being conducted as specified in Table 12.5-1, prepare and submit to the Commission, in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report, a description of the reasons for not conducting a program as required and the plans for preventing a recurrence.

Deviation.s are permitted from the required sampling schedule if specimens are unobtainable due to hazardous conditions, seasonal unavailability, malfunction of sampling equipment, if a person who participates in the program goes out of business or no longer can provide sample, or contractor omission which is corrected as soon as discovered. If the equipment malfunctions, corrective actions shall be completed as soon as practical, if a person / business supplying samples goes out of business, a replacement supplier shall be found as soon as possible. All deviations from the sampling schedule shall be described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

2. With the level of radioactivity as a result of plant effluents in an environmental sampling medium at a specified location exceeding the reporting levels of Table 12.5-2 when averaged over any calendar quarter, prepare and submit M the Commission within 30 days a Special Report which identifies the caus ,ss ) for exceeding the limit (s) and defines the corrective actions to be taken to reduce radioactive effluents so that the potential annual dose
  • to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is less than the calendar year limits of Section 12.3.2,12.4.2, or 12.4.3.

When more than one of the radionuclides in Table 12.5.2 are detected in the sampling medium, this report shall be submitted if:

concentration (1) + concentration (2) + . > 1.0 _

reporting level (1) reporting level (2)

When radionuclides other than those in Table 12.5-2 are detected and are the result of plant effluents, this report shall be submitted if the potential annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from all radionuclides is equal to or greater than the calendar year limits of Section 12.3.2,12.4.2, or 12.4.3. ~ This report is not required if the measured level of radioactivity was not the result of plant effluents; however, in such a event, the condition shall be reported and desenbed in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

  • The methodology and parameters used to estimate the potential dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC shall be indicated in the report.

3. If the sample type or sampling location (s) required by Table 12.5-1 become(s) permanently unavailable, identify suitable altemative sampling media for the pathway of interest and/or specific locations for obtaining replacement samples and add them to the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program as soon as practicable. The specific locations from which samples were unavailable may then be deleted from the program.

Prepare and submit to a controlled version of the ODCM within 180 days including a revised figure (s) and table reflecting the new location (s) with supporting information identifying the cause of the unavailability of samples and justifying the selection of new location (s) for obtaining samples:

Surveillance Reauirements 12.5.1.B.1 The Radiological Environmental Monitoring samples shall be collected from the locations specified in the ODCM and analyzed pursuant to Table 12.5-1 and the detection capabilities required by Table 12.5-3.

Bases 12.5.1.C The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program required by this section provides representative measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides that lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC resulting from the static,n operation. This monitoring program implementsSection IV.B.2 of Appendix l to 10CFR50 and thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that that y measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiPMon are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of tho environmental exposure pathways. Guidance forthis monitoring program is provided by the Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position on Environmental Monitoring.

The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least 3 years of commercial operation. Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The required detection capabilities for environmental sample analyses are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLD). The LLDs required by Table 12.5-3 are considered optimum for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a before the fact limit representing the capability of a measurement systens and not as an after the fact limit for a particular measurement.

Detailed discussion of the LLD, and other detection limits, can be found in HASL Procedures Manual, HASL 300 (revised annually), Currie, LA., " Limits for Qualitative Detection and Quantitative Determination-Application to Radiochemistry," Anal. Chem, 4Q, 586-93 (1968), and Gartwell, J.K., " Detection Limits for Radioanalytical Counting Techniques," Atlantic Richfield Hanford Company Report ARH-SA 215 (June 1975).

ZION Revision 2 March 1990 Interpretations 12.5.1.D Table 12.5-1 requires "one sample of each community drinking water supply downstream of the plant within 10 kilometers." Drinking water supply is defined as water teken from river, d.es, or reservoirs (not well water) which is used for drinking. Since Lake Mi;higan has no designated downstream or upstream direction, two drinking water locations (one north /one south) within 10 kilometers shall be sampled as drinking water inde.ator locations, and two other locations (one north /one south) beyond 10 kilometers shall be sampled as control locations.

ZION Revision 2 March 1998 TABLE 12.5-3 (Continued)

DETECTION CAPABILITIES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLE ANALYSIS TABLE NOTATIONS (1) This table contains lower limits of detection for analyses beyond the requirements of Table 12.5-1. This table does not imply that only these nuclides are to be detected and reported; other peaks which are measurable and identifiable in the analyses required by Table 12.5-1 shall be reported in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

(2) Required detection capabilities for thermoluminescent dosimeters used for environmental measurements shall be in accordance with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 4.13.

(3) The Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) is defined, for purposes of these specifications, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5%

probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation, the LLD is defined as follows:

4.66 So + 3/to LLD =

(E) (V) (2.22) (Y) (exp (-LAt))

4.66 So LLD ~

(E) (V) (2.22) (Y) (exp (-AAt))

Where: 4.66 So >> 3/to LLD = the "a priori" Lower Limit of Detection (picocuries per unit mass or volume),

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

4 Total Counts

=

tb E = the counting efficiency (counts per disintegration),

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

2.22 = the number of disintegrations per minute per picocurie, l Y = the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, A = the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec"),

to = counting time of the background or blank (minutes), and ht12r2 doc 12-46

ZION Revision 2 March 1998 l

i TABLE 12.5-3 (Continued)

.A DETECTION CAPABILITIES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLE ANALYSIS TABLE NOTATIONS l

l At = the elapsed time between sample collection, or end of the sample collection l

period, and the time of counting (sec).

l Typical values of E, V, Y, and At should be used in the calculation.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a before the fact limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an after the fact limit for a particular measurement.

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

(4) If no drinking water pathway exists, the value of 15 pCi/l may be used.

(5) A value of 0.5 pCi/l shall be used when the animals are on pasture (May through October) and a value of 5 pCl/l shall be used at all other times (November through April).

(6) This LLD applies only when the analytical separation and counting procedure are specific for this radionuclide.

(7) This is the minimum required LLD, however, environmental samples analyzed off-site will be required to use 200 pCi/l.
