Subject:
Release of Liquid Radioactive Waste that Exceeded Technical Specification Limits.
The on site inspector was informed on July 22, 1975, of a release of liquid waste that contained a concentration of radioactive material ;
approximately 15% in excess of the limit listed in the Technical Specifications. !
Because of a malfunction of a flow indicator, the discharge rate of the liquid radwaste was being recorded incorrectly. Upon completion of the IEE
' discharge, a confirmation of the flow rate was made by tank level changes ,
with time. At this time it was determined that the actual discharge flow *
(
( rate was greater than the recorded flow rate by a factor of approximately 3.
]
.. The Resident Inspector was at the site.
The magnitude of the release is considered to be minor.
The licensee intends to issue a press release. Op
