1.0 EXECUTIVE

SUMMARY

The Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report describes the radioactive effluent control program conducted at the North Anna Power Station and the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) during the 2020 calendar year. This document summarizes the quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents and solid waste released from the North Anna Power Station and ISFSI in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.21 during the period of January 1 through December 31, 2020 and includes an assessment of radiation doses to the maximum exposed member of the public due to radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents.

There were no releases from the ISFSI during 2020.

There were no unplanned releases, meeting the reporting criteria of Section 6.7.2.a.3 of the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual during this reporting period. Also, there were no spills or leaks meeting the voluntary communication criteria of the NEI Ground Water Protection Initiative. This will be discussed in Attachment 6.

10 CFR 50, Appendix I dose calculations were performed on the 2020 effluent release data in accordance with the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The results of these pathway dose calculations indicate the following:

a. The total body dose due to liquid effluents was 6.443E-01 mrem, which is 10.738% of the dose limit, and the critical organ dose due to liquid effluents was 6.509E-01 mrem, which is 3.255% of the dose limit.
b. The air dose due to noble gases was l.735E-04 mradgamma, which is 8.675E-04% of the annual gamma dose limit, and 9.913E-05 mrad beta, which is 2.478E-4% of the annual beta dose limit.
c. The critical organ dose for I-131, I-133, H-3, and particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days including C-14 was
2. 784E +O mrem, which is 9 .28% of the annual dose limit. The bases of C-14 calculations are described in Attachment 9.
d. The critical organ dose for I-131, I-133, H-3, and particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days not including C-14 was 8.183E-03 mrem, which is 2.728E-02% ofthe annual dose limit.

There were no major changes to either the radioactive liquid waste treatment system, or to the gaseous, and solid waste treatment systems during this reporting period.

There was no revision to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual during this reporting period.

Based on the levels of radioactivity observed during this reporting period and the dose calculations performed, the operations of the North Anna Nuclear Power Station Units 1 and 2 and ISFSI have resulted in negligible dose consequences to the maximum exposed member of the public in unrestricted areas.

2.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE The Radioactive Effluent Release Report includes, in Attachment 1, a summary of the quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents and solid waste as outlined in Regulatory Guide 1.21, "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactivity in Solid Wastes and Releases ofRadioactive Materials in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents from Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants",

Revision 1, June 1974, with data summarized on a quarterly basis for Table 1 and2 and on an annual basis on Table 3. The report submitted before May 1st of each year includes an assessment of radiation doses to the maximum exposed member of the public due to radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents released from the site during the previous calendar year. The report also includes a list of unplanned releases during the reporting period in Attachment 6.

As required by Technical Specification, any changes to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) for the time period covered by this report are included in Attachment 3.

Maj or changes to radioactive liquid, gaseous and solid waste treatment systems are reported in Attachment 4, as required by the ODCM, Section 6. 7 .2.a.4. Information to support the reason( s) for the change(s) and a summary of the 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation are included.

As required by the ODCM, Sections 6.2.2.b.2 and 6.3.2.b.3, a list and explanation for the inoperability ofradioactive liquid and/or gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation is provided in Attachment 5 of this report.

3.0 DISCUSSION The basis for the calculation of percent of Technical Specification for the critical organ in Table IA of Attachment 1 is the ODCM, section 6.3.1, which requires that the dose rate for iodine-131, iodine-133, tritium, and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days be less than or equal to 1500 mrem/yrto the critical organ at or beyond the site boundary.

The critical organ is the child's bone if C-14 is included and child's thyroid if C-14 is not included both via the inhalation pathway.

The basis for the calculation of percent of Technical Specification for the total body and skin in Table IA of Attachment 1 is the ODCM, section 6.3 .1, which requires that the dose rate for noble gases to areas at or beyond the site boundary shall be less than or equal to 500 mrem/yr to the total body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/yr to the skin.

The basis for the calculation of the percent of Technical Specification in Table 2A in Attachment 1 is the ODCM, section 6.2.1, which states that the concentrations of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to unrestricted areas shall be limited to 10 times the concentrations specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 2.0E-4 uCi/ml.

Percent of Technical Specification calculations are based on the total gaseous or liquid effluents released for that respective quarter.

The annual and quarterly doses, as reported in Attachment 2, were calculated according to the methodology presented in the ODCM. The beta and gamma air doses due to noble gases released from the site were calculated at site boundary. The maximum exposed member of the public from the releases of airborne iodine-131, iodine-133, tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days, including carbon-14 is defined as a child, exposed through the vegetation pathway, with the critical organ being the bone. If carbon-14 is excluded from these calculations, the maximum exposed member of the public from the releases ofairbome iodine-131, iodine-133, tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days is defined as a child, exposed through the vegetation pathway, with the critical organ being the thyroid gland. The maximum exposed member of the public for calculation of total body dose from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released to unrestricted areas is defined as a child. The critical organ dose calculation was determined to be the child liver. The age group is exposed via the drinking water and fish ingestion pathways.

As shown in Attachment 6, there were no unplanned releases meeting the requirements of6.7.2.a.3 of the ODCM.

The typical Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) capabilities of the radioactive effluent analysis instrumentation are presented in Attachment 7. These LLD values are based upon conservative conditions (i.e., minimum sample volume and maximum delay time prior to analysis). Actual LLD values may be lower. If a radioisotope was not detected when effluent samples were analyzed, then the activity of that radioisotope was reported as Not Detectable (NID) on Attachment 1 of this report. Ifan analysis for an isotope was not performed, then the activity was reported as Not Applicable (NIA).

4.0 SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION As required by the ODCM, section 6.6.2, evaluation of the Land Use Census is performed to identify if new location(s) need be added for the radiological environmental monitoring program pursuant to the ODCM. There were no new sampling locations added. There were six (6) changes made from the land use census in 2020. The nearest garden location in the NNE sector changed from 1.66 miles to 3.25 miles. The nearest garden location in the ESE sector changed from 1.71 miles to 1.70 miles.

The nearest garden location in the SSE sector changed from 1.00 mile to 2.66 miles. The nearest garden in the S sector changed from 1.49 miles to 1.48 miles. The nearest garden in the SSW sector changed from 2.37 miles to 2.00 miles. Finally, the nearest garden location in the SW sector changed from 1.65 miles to 3.96 miles.

Section 6.6.1.b.4 of the ODCM requires identification of the cause(s) for the unavailability of milk or leafy vegetation samples, and the identification of new locations for obtaining replacement samples. Milk samples were not collected in 2020 because the last of the operating dairies in the sampling area ceased operations at the start ofcalendar year 2018. Vegetation samples were not collected from stations 14B, 15, 16, 23 and 26 from January through April and November through December due to seasonal unavailability. All other vegetation samples were obtained.

Attachment 8 contains the results of samples associated with ground water protection sampling undertaken at North Anna to voluntarily comply with the Nuclear Energy Institute, NEI, Ground Water Protection Initiative. In addition to the well, river, and 6

surface water samples included as part of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program, North Anna obtained subsurface water samples from various locations on the site. contains an explanation of the bases for the carbon-14 calculations performed to assess doses due to carbon- I 4.

Doses and %TS for gaseous releases are displayed with C-14 included and without for comparison of the values.

ATTACHMENT 8 RESULTS OF GROUND WATER PROTECTION INITIATIVE SAMPLE ANALYSIS (01/20 - 12/20)

The Ground Water Protection Program was established to improve North Anna's management of and response to instances where the inadvertent release of radioactive substances may result in low but detectible levels of plant-related materials in subsurface soils and water.

It complies with the requirements ofNEI 07-07, INDUSTRY GROUND WATER PROTECTION INITIATIVE - FINAL GUIDANCE DOCUMENT. The industry initiative is intended to improve public trust and confidence in the nuclear industry through sampling and analysis of ground water and timely and effective communication with stakeholders, including the public and local, state, and federal officials.

Samples are obtained from monitoring wells installed both inside and outside the restricted area on a quarterly basis and analyzed onsite.

Annually, during the second quarter, these samples are analyzed by an Independent Lab. Samples are also obtained from sumps and yard drains on a quarterly basis and analyzed onsite. Samples may be obtained more frequently than normal, if required and may be analyzed on-site or by an Independent Lab. The required Lower Limits of Detection, LLDs, and reporting limits for the ground water detection program are those associated with the radiological environmental program as listed in Attachments 11 and 12 to VP AP-2103N.

On the following pages is a summary of the samples and results of the ground water protection program taken for calendar year 2020. All liquid results are reported in pCi/L, while soil results for tritium are reported in pCi/g of soil, wet. An "NIA" indicates a sample analysis was not performed for that sample. An "NID" indicates an analysis was performed but the result was less than the Minimum Detectable Activity, MDA, and the required LLD. If a result is greater than the MDA, but less than the LLD the result is listed. Some of these results may be false positives, due to the analysis software or interferences from naturally occurring radioactivity. In these cases, instead of the value, an explanatory footnote is provided.

ATTACHMENT 9 CARBON-14 CALCULATIONS (01/20 - 12/20)

Carbon-14, C-14, is a naturally occurring isotope of carbon produced by cosmic ray interactions in the atmosphere. Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount ofC-14 in the atmosphere. Due to the long half-life ofC-14, 5730 years, a significant portion of the C-14 from this testing is still present in the environment. C-14 is also produced in commercial nuclearreactors, but the amounts produced are much less than those produced naturally or from weapons testing.

In Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 2, "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste", the NRC has recommended that U.S. nuclear power plants evaluate whether C-14 is a "principal radionuclide", and if so, report the amount of C-14 released. At North Anna, improvements over the years in fuel performance have resulted in a decrease in the amount and distribution of radionuclides released to the environment in gaseous effluents. As a result, C-14 has become a "principal radionuclide" for the gaseous effluent pathway at North Anna, as defined in Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 2. Because the dose contribution of C-14 to liquid radioactive waste is a small fraction of the dose compared to other nuclides, evaluation of C-14 in liquid effluents is not required by Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 2.

The quantity of gaseous C-14 released to the environment can be estimated by use of a C-14 source term scaling factor based on power generation. North Anna utilized methodology in EPRI Report, Estimation of C-14 in Nuclear Power Gaseous Effluents. Based on this document, at full capacity, North Anna would generate and release about 30.1 Ci of C-14 per year. Since the units did not operate at full power for 100% of the year, this value was corrected for the capacity factor of each unit yielding an estimated 27.8 Ci ofC-14 produced and released. North Anna assumed that the fractional release of gaseous C-14 in any quarter and pathway could be approximated by the fraction of noble gasses released via that pathway in that quarter.

Most C-14 species initially produced in a Pressurized Water Reactor are organic, e.g., methane. C-14 releases in PWRs occur primarily as a mix of organic carbon and carbon dioxide released from the waste gas system. C-14 in the primary coolant is essentially all organic with a large fraction as a gaseous species. Any time the RCS liquid or gas is exposed to an oxidizing environment, a slow transformation from an organic to an inorganic chemical form can occur. Various studies documenting measured C-14 releases from PWRs suggest a range of 70% to 95% organic. North Anna used a value of70% organic and 30% CO2 in its calculations.

Public dose estimates from airborne C-14 were performed using dose models in NUREG-0133 and Regulatory Guide 1.109. The estimated C-14 dose impact on the maximum organ dose from airborne effluents released at North Anna is estimated to be 2.35E-01 rnrem from the inhalation pathway, or 1. 57E-02 % TS of the 15 00 rnrem/yr dose rate limit and 2 .54E +0 rnrem from the ingestion pathway or 8 .47+00% TS of the 10CFR50, Appendix I, ALARA design objective of 15 rnrem/yrperunit. In both cases the critical organ was determined to be the child's bone.

. ' .: - ~

A channel calibration shall be the adjustment, as necessary, of the channel output such that it responds within the necessary range and accuracy to known values ~f the parameter that the channel monitors. The channel calibration shall encompass all devices in the channel required for channel *operability. The channel calibration may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, ortotal*channel steps.

4.2 Channel Check A qualitative assessment, by observ~tion, of channel behavior during operation. This assessment includes, where pos~ibl~. comparison of the channel indication and status with other indications or status'cierived from independent instrumentation channels measuring the same parameter; 4.3 Channel Operational Test .

A Channel Operational Test (COT) shall be the injection of a simulated or actual signal into the chamiel as close to the sensor as *practicable to check OPERABILITY of all devices in the channel required for channel OPERABILITY. The COT shalliriclude adjustments, as necessary, of the required alarm;. interlock, and trip setpoints required for channel OPERABILITY such that setpoints.~e within the necessary range and accuracy. The COT may be performed by means of any series:of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps.

4.4 Critical Organ That organ, which has been determined to be the maximum exposed organ based on an effluent pathway analysis, thereby ensuring the dose and dose rate limitations to any organ will not be exceeded.* Dose calculations to the critical organ will be evaluated in accordance with Technical Specifications 5 .5 .4 dose* rate limits specified for any organ to check that these limits have not been exceeded.

4.5 Dose Equivalent 1-131 That concentration ofl 131 (µCi/cc) that alone w~uld produce the same thyroid dose as the quantity and isotopic mixture ofl131 ,I 132, 1133 , 1134, and 1135 actually present. Thyroid dose conversion factors for this calculation are listed in Table III of TID-14844, Calculation of Distance Factors for Power and Test Reactor Sites.

Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation ACTION 1: If the number of operable channels is less than required, effluent releases, via this path, may continue if the flow rate is estimated at least once per four hours.

ACTION 2: If the number of operable channels is less than required, effluent releases, via this path, may continue if grab samples are taken at least once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> and these samples are analyzed for gross activity or gamma isotopic activity within2~ hours ..

ACTION 3: If the number of operable channels is less than required, effluent releases via this path may continue if grab samples are taken at least once per twelve (12) hours and these samples are analyzed for gross activity or gamma isotopic activity within eight (8) hours. This requirement is for effluent accountability and is distinct and separate from any requirement for primary-to-secondary leak rate determination. The need to determine the.primary-to-secondary leak rate, e.g., the performance of l/2-PT-46.3B, shall be.determined in accordance with the requirements of TRM TR 3.4.5. However, the same sample may be used to fulfiil both the requirements of this action and primary-to-secondary leak rate determination.

ACTION 4: If the number of operable channels is less than required, the contents of the Waste Gas Decay Tanks may be released to the environment.provided that prior to initiation of the release:

a. At least two independent samples of the tank's contents are analyzed, and:
b. At least two technically qualified members of the Station staff independently check the release rate calculations and discharge valve lineup.

ACTION 5: If the number of operable channels is less th.ail required, effluent releases from the Waste Gas Decay Tank may continue provided samples are continuously collected with auxiliary sampling equipment as required in Radioactive Gaseous Waste Sampling and Analysis Program (Attachment 4).

NOTE 1: A channel shall consist of:

a. The flow instrument installed in the ejector through which the discharge is routed; either Train A (1-SV-FI-lO0A, 101A), or Train B (1-SV-FI-lO0B, 101B) or both.
b. Flow instruments 101A and 101B provide low range measurement. Flow instruments 100A and 100B provide high range measurement.

NOTE 2: A channel shall consist of:

a. The flow instrument installed in the ejector through which the discharge is routed; either Train A (2-SV-FI-200A, 201A), or Train B (2-SV-FI-200B, 201B) or both.
b. Flow instruments 201A and 201B provide low range measurement. Flow instruments 200A and 200B provide high range measurement.

NOTE 3: A channel shall consist of a MGPI monitor; and a MGPI or HP particulate and iodine sampler, and its associated sampler flow rate measuring device or rotameter.

.*. Onsite meteorological d~ta for the period January 1, 1981, through December 3(1981, were used in calculations. These data included wind speed, wind direction, and differential

. :temperature.for the purpose of determining joint frequency distributions for those releases characterized as ground leyel (e.g._, ventilation vent), and those characterized as mixed mode (i.e., process vent). The portions.of release charactf?rized as ground level were based on t1T1s8.9ft-28.2ft ;md 28.2 f~,0t wind,~at~, ~d the portions characterized as mixed mode were based on t1T1s8.9ft-28.2ft and 15,8.9;-ft wind ~ata.

However, these releases are considered fong term for dose calculations as past releases were both random in time of day and duration as 'evidenced by reviewing past release reports.

_ Therefore, th,e use of annual average concentrations is appropriate according to NUREG-0133.

Analysis using2007 release data:indicates that the most limiting critical organ is the child's

.-.thyroid. The location is 1593 meters* SSE sector. For process vent releases, the D/Q is l. lE-8.

For tritium releases, the X/Q values at this location are 9 .SE-7 for the process vent and 3.3E-6 for the ventilation vents.

2.0 LIQUID PATHWAYANALYSIS 2.1 Purpose* *

  • The purpose of the liquid pathway analysis \vas to determine the maximum*exposed member of the public in unrestricteclareas as a result ofradioactive liquid effluent releases. The analysis includes a determination of most t~strictive liquid pathway, most restrictive age group, and critical organ. This analysis is'required for Subsection 6.2.

2.2 Data, Parameters, and Methodology Initially, radioactive liquid effluent release data for the years 1979, 1980, and 1981 were compiled from the North Anna Power Station semi-annual effluent release reports. The data for each year, along with appropriate site specific parameters and default selected parameters, were entered into the NRC computer code LADTAP as described in NUREG-0133.

3.2 Data, Parameters, and Methodology Annual average X/Q values were calculated, as described in Section 1 of this attachment, for the nearest site boundary in each.cli,rectional*sector.and at other critical locations beyond the site boundary. The largest X/Q value was determined to be 9 .3E-06 sec/m3 at site boundary for ventilation vent releases at a location 1416 meters SE direction, and l .2E-06 sec/m3 at site a

The maximum doses to total body and skin, and air doses for gamma and beta radiation due to noble.gases, would be at these site boundary locations. The doses from both release points are summed in calculations to calculate total maximum dose.

Step 6.3. l .a.2 dose limits apply specifically to the in4alation pathway. Therefore, the locations and X/Q values determined Jar maximum noble gas doses can be used to determine the maximum dos~ from I 1~1, 1133 , tritium, ~dfor all radionuclides in ~articulate form with half.:-lives greater than 8 days:for the inhalation pathway.

pathway.

The gamma and beta dose factors Kivv, Livv,'Mivv, an:dNivv in Gaseous Effluent Dose Factors (Attachment 5) were obtained by petforining a units-conversion of the appropriate dose factors from Table B-1, Regulatory Guide 1.109, Rev: 1, to mrem/yr per Ci/m3 or mrad/yr per

    • Ci/m3, and multiplying by the ventilation vent site boundary X/Q value of 9 .3E-:-06 sec/m3. The same approach was used in calculating the gamma and beta dose factors Kipv, Lipv, Mipv, and Nipv in Gaseous Effluent Dose Factors (Attaclrrµent 5) using the process vent site boundary X/Q value of l .2E-06 sec/m3.

The inhalation pathway dose factors Pivv and Pipv in Gaseous Effluent Dose Factors (Attachment 5) were calculated using the following e.quation:

_hrrgest dose beyond site boundary was determined to be located 1432 meters N sector. The critical pathway was vegetation, the maximum exposed age group was-the child; artd the critical organ was the thyroid.

Pathway analysis results indicate that existing pathways, including ground and inhalation, within five miles of North Anna Power Station, yield Ri dose factors less than those determined for the vegetation. [Reference 3.1:32] -

The RMivv and RMipv dose factors, except for tritium, in Critical Organ Dose*Factors (Attachment 8) were calculate4 by multiplring the appropriate D/Q value with the following equation:
