ATTACHMENT 2 BIG ROCK POINT INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION 2020 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENT RELEASE REPORT This report provides information relating to radioactive effluent releases and solid radioactive waste disposal at Big Rock Point (BRP) for the year 2020. The report format is detailed in the BRP Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). Effluent releases from BRP are controlled by the Defueled Technical Specifications and the ODCM requirements.

2020 Operating History On January 8, 2007, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approved release of the former BRP Nuclear Plant property for unrestricted use in accordance with the BRP License Termination Plan 1 . On April 11, 2007, the license for BRP, DPR-06, was transferred to Entergy Nuclear Operations, Inc.

During 2020, normal independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) operations continued. There were no operational activities that generated any solid radioactive waste.

Liquid and gaseous effluent monitoring is no longer conducted as the former BRP nuclear plant property has been released from the license. Short-lived radionuclides, including iodines and noble gas, are neither expected nor reported.

1. Supplemental Information A. Batch Releases There were no batch releases of gaseous or liquid effluents during 2020. All batch releases of radioactive liquids as described in the ODCM ceased in 2004. Reference Table 1.

B. Abnormal Releases There were no abnormal releases from BRP during 2020.

C. Radioactive Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation BRP ODCM currently specifies required actions when less than the minimum numbers of radioactive effluent monitoring instrument channels are operable. The ODCM also specifies these actions be taken when installed effluent monitoring systems are removed from service for decommissioning.

All plant-installed liquid and gaseous radioactive effluent monitoring instrument channels have been permanently removed and dismantled.

1 Letter from the USNRC dated January 8, 2007, "Release of Land from Part 50 License for Unrestricted Use" Page 1 of 2

2. Gaseous Effluents Although there were no gaseous effluents released during 2020, Table 2 provides a summary of all gaseous radioactive effluent monitoring conducted during the reporting period as required by the ODCM.
3. Liquid Effluents There were no liquid effluent batch releases during 2020. Table 3 lists and summarizes liquid effluent releases in accordance with the ODCM.
4. Solid Waste There was no solid radioactive waste generated or shipped during 2020.
5. Summary of Radiological Impact on Man The ODCM specifies that the annual effluent release report provide potential dose calculatiReportons based on measured effluent to liquid and gaseous pathways, if estimates of dose exceed one millirem to an organ or total body of any individual or more than one person-rem to the population within 50 miles. During 2020, there were no releases. Therefore, no calculations were required.
6. Offsite Dose Calculation Manual The ODCM describes the radiological release requirements for the BRP site.

There were no revisions to the ODCM in 2020.

7. Process Control Program (PCP)

The Process Control Program (PCP) describes solid waste processing and disposal methods utilized at the BRP site. Changes to the fleet procedure governing the PCP have no effect on the BRP site in 2020.
