Preface The following sections of the preface are meant to help define key concepts, provide clarity, and give context to the readers of this report.
Annual Reports The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is the federal agency who has the role to protect public health and safety through the development of regulations governing nuclear power reactors and ensuring their compliance. As part of the many commitments Nuclear Power Plants have to the NRC to ensure this safety, they provide two reports annually to specifically address how the station's operation impacts the environment of local communities. The NRC then reviews these reports and makes them available to the public. The names of the reports are the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report (ARERR) and the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating. Report (ARE OR).
The ARERR reports the results of the sampling from the effluent release paths at the station analyzed for radioactivity. An effluent is a liquid or gaseous waste containing plant-related radioactive material emitted at the boundary of the facility.
The ARE OR reports the results of the samples obtained in the environment surrounding the station. Environmental samples include air, water, vegetation, and other sample types that are identified as potential pathways radioactivity can reach humans.
Graphic 1. Examples of Gaseous and Liquid Effluent Pathways Graphic 1 demonstrates some potential exposure pathways from Braidwood Nuclear Power Station. The ARERR and AREOR together ensure Nuclear Power Plants are operating in a manner that is within established regulatory commitments meant to adequately protect the public.
Understanding Radiation
)
Generally radiation is defined as emitted energy in the form of waves or particles. If radiation has enough energy to displace electrons from an atom it is termed "ionizing", otherwise it is "non-ionizing". Non-Ionizing radiation includes light, heat given off from a stove, radiowaves and microwaves. Ionizing radiation occurs in atoms, particles too small for the eye to see. So, what are atoms and how does radiation come from them?

nuclei An atom is the smallest part of an element that maintains the characteristics of that element. Atoms are made up of three parts: protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Graphic 3. Structure of an Atom The number of protons in an atom determines the element. For example, a hydrogen atom will always have one proton while an oxygen atom will always have eight protons. The protons are clustered with the neutrons forming the nucleus at the center of the atom. Orbiting around the nucleus are the relatively small electrons.
Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Different isotopes of an element will all have the same chemical properties and many isotopes are radioactive while other isotopes are not radioactive. A radioactive isotope can emit radiation because it contains excess energy in its nucleus. Radioactive atoms and isotopes are also referred to as radionuclides and radioisotopes.
There are two basic ways that radionuclides are produced at a nuclear power plant.
The first is fission, which creates radionuclides that are called fission products.
Fission occurs when a very large atom, such as uranium-235 (U-235) or plutonium-239 (Pu-239), absorbs a neutron into its nucleus making the atom unstable. The unstable atom can then split into smaller atoms. When fission occurs there is a large amount of energy released, in the form of heat. A nuclear power plant uses the heat generated to boil water that spins turbines to produce electricity.
The second way a radionuclide is produced at a nuclear power plant is through a process called activation. Radionuclides produced in this method are termed activation products. Pure water that passes over the fissioning atoms is used to cool the reactor and also produce steam to turn the turbines. Although this water is considered to be very pure, there are always some contaminants within the water from material used in the plant's construction and operation. These contaminants are exposed to the fission process and may become activation products. The atoms in the water itself can also become activated and create radionuclides.
Over time, radioactive atoms will reach a stable state and no longer be radioactive.
To do this they must release their excess energy. This release of excess energy is called radioactive decay. The time it takes for a radionuclide to become stable is measured in units called half-lives. A half-life is the amount of time it takes for half of the original radioactivity to decay. Each radionuclide has a specific half-life. Some half-lives can be very long and measured in years while others may be very short and measured in seconds.

We are mostly concerned about man-made radionuclides because they can be produced as by-products when generating electricity at a nuclear power plant. It is important to note that there are also other ways man-made radionuclides are produced, such as detonating nuclear weapons. Weapons testing has deposited some of the same man-made radionuclides into the environment as those generated by nuclear power, and some are still present today because of long half-lives.
Measuring Radiation There are four different but interrelated units for measuring radioactivity, exposure, absorbed dose, and dose equivalent. Together, they are used to scientifically report the amount of radiation and its effects on humans.
- Radioactivity refers to the amount of ionizing radiation released by a material.
The units of measure for radioactivity used within the AREOR and ARERR are the Curie (Ci). Sniall fractions of the Ci often have a prefix, such as the microCurie (µCi), which means 1/1,000,000 of a Curie.
- Exposure describes the amount of radiation traveling through the air. The units of measure for exposure used within the AREOR and ARERR are the Roentgen (R). Traditionally direct radiation monitors placed around the site are measured milliRoentgen (mR), 1/1,000 of one R.
- Absorbed dose describes the amount of radiation absorbed by an object or person. The units of measure for absorbed dose used within the AREOR and ARERR are the rad. Noble gas air doses are reported by the site are measured in millirad (mrad), 1 /1,000 of one rad.
- Dose equivalent (or effective dose) combines the amount of radiation absorbed and the health effects of that type of radiation. The units used within the AREOR and ARERR are the Roentgen equivalent man (rem).
Regulations.require doses to the whole body, specific organ,.and direct radiation to be reported in millirem (mrem), 1/1,000 of one rem.
Sources of Radiation People are exposed to radiation every day of their lives and have been since the dawn of mankind. Some of this radiation is naturally occurring while some is man-made. There are many factors that will determine the amount of radiation individuals will be exposed to such as where they live, medical treatments, etc. The average person in the United States is exposed to approximately 620 mrem each year. Half of this exposure, 310 mrem, comes from natural sources and the other half, 310 mrem, from man-made sources. Graphic 5 shows what the typical sources of radiation are for an individual over a calendar year:

Radiation Risk Current science suggests there is some risk from any exposure to radiation.
However, it is very hard to tell whether cancers or deaths can be attributed to very low doses of radiation or by something else. U.S. radiation protection standards are based on the premise that any radiation exposure carries some risk.
The following graph is an example of one study that tries to relate risk from many different factors. This graph represents risk as "Days of Lost Life Expectancy". All the categories are averaged over the entire population except Male Smokers, Female Smokers, and individuals that are overweight. Those risks are only for people that fall into those categories. The category for Nuclear Power is a government estimate based on all radioactivity releases from nuclear power, including accidents and wastes.

Summary and Conclusions This report on the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) conducted for Exelon's Braidwood Station covers the period January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021. During that time period 1,589 analyses were performed on 1,276 samples. In assessing all the data gathered for this report and comparing these results with preoperational data, it was concluded that the operation of Braidwood Station had no adverse radiological impact on the environment.
Surface, public, and ground/well water samples were analyzed for concentrations of tritium and gamma-emitting nuclides. Surface water and public water samples were also analyzed for concentrations of gross beta. Gross beta and tritium activities detected were consistent with those detected in previous years. No fission or activation products were detected. As part of an effort to implement industry best practices, both gaseous and liquid station effluents were evaluated for all 1 0CFR61 required nuclides. Nuclides exceeding 1 % relative abundance in the waste stream were added to the list of nuclides that Teledyne Brown evaluates in potentially impacted REMP matrices. For Braidwood Station, nickel-63 (Ni-63) exceeds 1 %
relative abundance in the radwaste resins. Occasionally, Ni-63 is observed in liquid release tank quarterly composites, therefore, beginning in the fall of 2013 the station requested that Ni-63 be evaluated in the downstream surface water, sediment, and fish analyses. Nickel-63 has not been observed in downstream surface water.
Fish (commercially and/or recreationally-important species) and sediment samples were analyzed for concentrations of gamma-emitting nuclides. No fission or activation products were detected in fish. Nickel-63 was not detected in any fish or sediment samples analyzed. No plant-produced fission or activation products were found in sediment.
Air particulate samples were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta and gamma-emitting nuclides. No fission or activation products were detected.
High sensitivity iodine-131 (1-131) analyses were performed on weekly air samples.
All results were less than the minimum detectable concentration for 1-131.
Cow milk samples were analyzed for concentrations of 1-131 and gamma-emitting nuclides. lodine-131 was not detected in any milk samples. Concentrations of naturally-occurring potassium-40 (K-40) were detected. No fission or activation products were found in any samples and all required LLDs (Lower Limit of Detection) were met.
Food Product samples were analyzed for concentrations of gamma-emitting nuclides. No fission or activation products were found in any samples and all required LLDs were met.
Environmental gamma radiation measurements were performed quarterly using Optically Stimulated Luminescence Dosimeters (OSLO). Beginning in 2012, Exelon changed the type of dosimetry used for the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP). Optically Stimulated Luminescent Dosimetry were deployed and Thermo-luminescent Dosimetry (TLD) were discontinued. This change may result in a step change in readings, up or down, depending on site characteristics. The relative comparison to control locations remains valid. OSLO technology is different than that used in a TLD but has the same purpose (to measure direct radiation). A dose evaluation was performed by taking the highest readings at the ISFSI pad and extrapolating dose to the nearest resident. The dose to the nearest resident was estimated to be O.18 mrem in 2021.

Introduction The Braidwood Station, consisting of two 3,645 MWt pressurized water reactors owned and operated by Exelon Corporation is located in Will County, Illinois. Unit No. 1 went critical on May 29, 1987. Unit No. 2 went critical on March 08, 1988.
The site is located in northeastern Illinois, 20 miles south-southwest of Joliet, Illinois, 60 miles southwest of Chicago and southwest of the Kankakee River.
This report covers those analyses performed by Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE) and Landauer Technologies on samples collected during the period January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021.
A.
Objectives of the REMP The objectives of the REMP are to:
- 1.
Pr.ovide data on measurable levels of radiation and radioactive materials in the site environs;
- 2.
Evaluate the relationship between quantities of radioactive material released from the plant and resultant radiation doses to individuals from principal pathways of exposure.
- B.
Implementation of the Objectives The implementation of the objectives is accomplished by:
- 1.
Identifying significant exposure pathways;
- 2.
Establishing baseline radiological data of media within those pathways;
- 3.
Continuously monitoring those media before and during Station-operation to assess Station radiological effects (if any) on man and the environment.

Program Description A.
Sample Collection Samples for the Braidwood Station REMP were collected for Exelon Nuclear by Environmental Inc. Midwest Labs (EIML). This section describes the general collection methods used by EIML to obtain environmental samples for the Braidwood Station REMP in 2021. Sample locations and descriptions can be found in Table B-1 and Figures B-1 through B-3, Appendix B. The sampling methods used by EIML are listed in Table B-2.
Aquatic Environment The aquatic environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on samples of surface water, public water, well water, fish, and sediment.
Two-gallon water samples were collected weekly from six surface water locations [BD-10, BD-25 (Control (C)), BD-38, BD-40, BD-55 and BD-56],
and one weekly composite sample of public drinking water at location (BD-
- 22) and ground/well water samples collected quarterly from eight locations (BD-13, BD-34, BD-35, BD-36, BD-37, BD-50, BD-51 and BD-54). All samples were collected in new plastic bottles, which were rinsed with source water prior to collection per procedure. Fish samples comprising the flesh of quillback, golden redhorse, flathead catfish, smallmouth bass, channel catfish, largemouth bass and common carp were collected semiannually at three locations, BD-25 (C), BD-28 and BD-41. Sediment samples composed of recently deposited substrate were collected at three locations semiannually, BD-10, BD-25 (C), and BD-57.
Atmospheric Environment The atmospheric environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on samples of air particulate and airborne iodine. Air particulate samples were collected and analyzed weekly at eight locations [BD-02, BD-03 (C), BD-04, BD-05, BD-06, BD-19, BD-20 and BD-21]. Airborne iodine and particulate samples were obtained at each location, using a vacuum pump with charcoal and glass fiber filters installed. The pumps were run continuously and sampled air at the rate of approximately one cubic foot per minute. The air particulate filters and air iodine cartridges were replaced weekly and sent to the laboratory for analysis.
Terrestrial Environment The terrestrial environment was evaluated by performing radiological analyses on food product samples. Food products and broad leaf vegetation*
were collected at six locations (BO-Control, BO-Quad 1, BO-Quad 2, BO-Quad 3, BO-Quad 4, BWD-G1 and BWD-G2). Various types of samples were collected and placed in new unused plastic bags and sent to the laboratory for analysis.
Ambient Gamma Radiation Beginning in 2012, Exelon changed the type of dosimetry used for the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP). Optically Stimulated Luminescent Dosimeters (OSLO) were deployed and the use of Thermoluminescent Dosimeters (TLD) was discontinued. This change may result in a step change in readings, up or down, depending on site characteristics. The relative comparison to control locations remains valid.
OSLO technology is different than that used in a TLD but has the same purpose (to measure direct radiation).
Each location consisted of two OSLDs. The OSLDs were exchanged quarterly and sent to Landauer for analysis. The OSLDs were placed at locations on and around the Braidwood Station site as follows:
An inner ring consisting of sixteen locations (BD-101, BD-102, BD-103, BD-104, BD-105, BD-106, BD-107, BD-108, BD-109, BD-110, BD-111a, BD-112, BD-113a, BD-114, BD-115 and BD-116) at or near the site boundary.
An outer ring consisting of sixteen locations (BD-201, BD-202, BD-203, BD-204, BD-205, BD-206, BD-207, BD-208, BD-209, BD-210, BD-211, BD-212, BD-213, BD-214, BD-215 and BD-216) extending to approximately 5 miles from the site.
An additional set located at the eight fixed air sampling locations (BD-02, BD-3 (C), BD-04, BD-05, BD-06, BD-19, BD-20 and BD-21 ).
An ISFSI set consisting of six locations (BD-ISFSl-104-3, BD-ISFSl-104-4, BD-ISFSl-105-3, BD-ISFSl-105-4, BD-ISFSl-110-3 and BD-ISFSl-110-4).
The specific OSLO locations were determined by the following criteria:
- 1. The presence of relatively dense population;
- 2.
Site meteorological data taking into account distance and elevation for each of the sixteen-22 1 /2 degree sectors around the site;
- 3.
Where estimated annual dose from Braidwood Station, if any, would be most significant.
B.
Sample Analysis This section describes the general analytical methodologies used by TBE to analyze the environmental samples for radioactivity for the Braidwood Station REMP in 2021. The analytical procedures used by the laboratories are listed in Table B-2.
In order to achieve the stated objectives, the current program includes the following analyses:
- 1.
Concentrations of beta emitters in public and surface water and air particulates.
- 2.
Concentrations of gamma emitters in public, ground/well and surface water, air particulates, milk, grass, fish, sediment and food products.
- 3.
Concentrations of tritium in public, ground/well and surface water.
- 4.
Concentrations of 1-131 in air, milk and public water.
- 5.
Concentrations of Ni-63 in surface water, fish and sediment.
- 6.
Ambient gamma radiation levels at various site environs.
C.
Data Interpretation The radiological and direct radiation data collected prior to Braidwood Station becoming operational were used as a baseline with which these operational data were compared. For the purpose of this report, Braidwood Station was considered operational at initial criticality. In addition, data was compared to previous years' operational data for consistency and trending. Several factors were important in the interpretation of the data:
- 1.
Lower Limit of Detection and Minimum Detectable Concentration The lower limit of detection (LLD) was defined as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that would yield a net count (above background) that would be detected with only a 5%
probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal. The LLD was intended as a before the fact estimate of a system (including instrumentation, procedure and sample type) and not as an after the fact criteria for the presence of activity. All analyses were designed to achieve the required Braidwood Station detection capabilities for environmental sample analysis.
The MDC is 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. The MDC is an a posteriori determination.
- 2.
Net Activity Calculation and Reporting of Results Net activityfor a sample was calculated by subtracting background activity from the sample activity. Since the REMP measures extremely small changes in radioactivity in the environment, background variations may result in sample activity being lower than the background activity resulting in a negative number. An MDC was reported in all cases where positive* activity was not detected.
Gamma spectroscopy results for each type of sample were grouped as follows:
For surface water, public water, ground/well water, air particulate/radioiodine, milk, vegetation and fish, twelve nuclides, Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Nb-95, Zr-95, 1-131, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ba-140 and La-140 were reported.
For sediment, eleven nuclides, Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Nb-95, Zr-95, Cs-134, Cs,.137, Ba-140 and La-140 were reported.
Means and standard deviations of the results were calculated. The standard deviations represent the variability of measured results for different samples rather than the single analysis uncertainty.
D.
Program Exceptions For 2021, the Braidwood Station REMP had a sample recovery rate in excess of 99%. Sample anomalies and missed samples are listed in the tables below:

In addition, to the preceding table, the initial 2021 OSLO dose readings were incorrect. For the 2nd, 3rd and 4th quarters, the 1st quarter deploy controls was used to calculate the normalized net dose. The deploy controls were not placed into the onsite vault for the appropriate time periods during the 2nd - 4th quarters.
Therefore, the dose readings were incorrect and 1st quarter deploy control doses were applied to the following three quarters. A new background vault rate was also calculated in 2021, and the quarterly readings were updated using the new rate of 0.08 mrem/day. (IR 04483926)

Airborne (AP/Al)
- a.
Air Particulates Continuous air particulate samples were collected from eight locations on a weekly basis. The eight locations were separated into three groups: Near field samplers (BD-06, BD-19, BD-20 and BD-21 ), far field samplers within 10 km of the site (BD-02, BD-04 and BD-05) and the Control sampler between 10 and 30 km from the site (BD-03). The following analyses were performed:
Gross Beta Weekly samples were analyzed for concentrations of beta emitters (Table C-Vl.1 and C-Vl.2, Appendix C). Detectable gross beta activity was observed at all locations. Comparison of results among the three groups aid in determining the effects, if any, resulting from the operation of Braidwood Station. The results from the near field (Group I) ranged from 6E-03 to 32E-03 pCi/m3 with a mean of 16E-03 pCi/m3. The results from the far field (Group II) ranged from 6E-03 to 34E-03 pCi/m3 with a mean of 16E-03 pCi/m3. The results from the Control location (Group Ill) ranged from 8E-03 to 31 E-03 pCi/m3 with a mean of 17E-03 pCi/m3. Comparison of the 2021 air particulate data with previous years' data indicate no effects from the operation of Braidwood Station. Additionally, a comparison of the weekly values for 2021 indicate no notable differences among the three groups. (Figures C-14 through C-18, Appendix C)
Gamma Spectrometry Weekly samples were composited quarterly and analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides. No nuclides were detected and all required LLDs were met. (Table C-Vl.3, Appendix C)

(Table C-IX.1, Appendix C)
D.
Ambient.Gamma Radiation Ambient gamma radiation levels were measured utilizing Optically Stimulated Luminescence Dosimeter (OSLO). Forty-eight OSLO locations were established around the site, each with two OSLD's installed for measurement. The data was analyzed using methods acceptable for demonstrating compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 40 CFR 190, "Environmental Radiation Protection Standards for Nuclear Power Operations". It incorporates the concepts of ANSI/HPS N13.37, "Environmental Dosimetry". Results of OSLO measurements are listed in Tables C-X.1 to C-X.3, Appendix C.
All OSLO measurements had a range of 12.8 to 38.0 mrem/std. quarter. A comparison of the Inner Ring, Outer Ring and Other data to the Control Location data, indicate that the ambient gamma radiation levels from all locations were similar.
Annual Facility Dose was reported for station BD-ISFSl-105-4. The direct dose to the nearest resident was estimated to be 0.18 mrem for the year.
E.
Land Use Survey F.
A Land Use Survey conducted during August 25, 2021, around the Braidwood Station was performed by EIML for Exelon Nuclear to comply with section 12.5.2 of the Braidwood Station's Offsite Dose Calculation Manual ODCM). The purpose of the survey was to document the nearest resident, milk-producing animal and garden of greater than 500 ft2 in each of the sixteen 22 1/2 degree sectors around the site. For dose calculation, a garden is assumed at the nearest residence. There were no notable changes to the 2021 land use census. The results of this survey are summarized below:

Summary of Results - Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program The TBE Laboratory analyzed Performance Evaluation (PE) samples of air particulate, air iodine, milk, soil, vegetation, and water matrices for various analytes. The PE samples supplied by Analytics Inc., Environmental Resource Associates (ERA) and Department of Energy (DOE) Mixed Analyte Performance Evaluation Program (MAPEP), were evaluated against the following pre-set acceptance criteria:
- 1.
Analytics Evaluation Criteria Analytics' evaluation report provides a ratio of TS E's result and Analytics' known value. Since flag values are not assigned by Analytics, TSE evaluates the reported ratios based on internal QC requirements based on the DOE MAPEP criteria.
- 2.
ERA Evaluation Criteria ERA's evaluation report provides an acceptance range for control and warning limits with associated flag values. ERA's acceptance limits are established per the USEPA, National Environmental Laboratory
.Accreditation Conference (NELAC), state-specific Performance Testing (PT) program requirements or ERA's SOP for the Generation of Performance Acceptance Limits, as applicable. The acceptance limits are either determined by a regression equation specific to each analyte or a fixed percentage limit promulgated under the appropriate regulatory document.
- 3.
DOE Evaluation Criteria MAPEP's evaluation report provides an acceptance range with associated flag values. MAPEP defines three levels of performance:
- Acceptable (flag = "A") - result within +/- 20% of the reference value
- Acceptable with Warning (flag = "W") - result falls in the +/- 20%
to +/- 30% of the reference value
- Not Acceptable (flag = "N") - bias is greater than 30% of the reference value Note: The Department of Energy (DOE) Mixed Analyte Performance Evaluation Program (MAPEP) samples are created to mimic conditions found
- at DOE sites which do not resemble typical environmental samples obtained at commercial nuclear power facilities.
For the TSE laboratory, 146 out of 154 analyses performed met the specified acceptance criteria. Seven analyses did not meet the specified acceptance criteria for the following reasons and were addressed through the TSE Corrective Action Program. A summary is found below:
- 1.
The ERA MRAD March 2021 Water Fe-55 result was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value for Fe-55 was 579 pCi/L and the known result was 275 pCi/L (acceptance range 162 - 400). When reviewing the original sample data, it was found that the carrier yield was 52.6% (lower than typical water samples). Looking at the etched plate that was counted, it appeared that some loss of sample could have occurred. The sample was logged for reanalysis and used as the workgroup duplicate. The results were acceptable at 197 and 221 respectively. Yields were 97.4% and 105.7% and the plated samples were centered with no apparent loss of sample. The loss of sample during plating resulted in a low yield which produced an artificially high sample result. (NCR 21-01)
- 2.
The MAPEP February 2021 AP Gross Alpha result was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value was 0.371 Sq/sample and the known result was 1.77 Sq/sample (acceptance range 0.53 - 3.01). A similar failure had occurred several years prior due to the filter being placed with the wrong side up on the detector. At that time, a small dot was placed on the top of the filter prior to removal from the package to indicate the correct side for counting. The current sample was still in the detector when the result was received (dot side facing the detector). The sample was recounted with a similar result and was flipped and recounted. The flipped result was 0.661 Sq/sample, within the acceptable range. Because TSE cannot rely on receiving correct packaging from the provider, MAPEP AP cross-checks will be counted on both sides going forward. NOTE: The August sample had the same packaging issue (upside down). (NCR 21-02)
- 3.
The MAPEP February 2021 soil Ni-63was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value was 310 Bq/kg and the known result was 689 (acceptance range 482 - 896). All workgroup QC was reviewed with no anomalies. The analytical procedure had been revised prior to this analysis to eliminate added interferences. The sample yield was >100%, indicative of incomplete separation from interferences, leading to a lower result. The procedure was again revised after acceptable results were obtained. (NCR 21-03)
- 4.
The ERA October 2021 water Gross Beta result was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value was 63.0 pCi/L and the known was 55.7 (acceptance range 38.1 - 62.6) or 113% of the known. The 2-sigma error was 6.8, placing the reported result well within the acceptable range. All QA was reviewed with no anomalies. A follow-up Quick Response cross-check was analyzed with a 120% ratio (see item 7). (NCR 21-10)
- 5.
The ERA October 2021 water Tritium result was evaluated as Not Acceptable.
The reported value was 13,800 pCi/L and the known was 17,200 (acceptance range 15,000 - 18,900). The 2-sigma error was 1,430, placing the result within the acceptable range. TBE's internal QC acceptance is 70% - 130%, while ERA's for this sample was 87% - 110%. All QA was reviewed with no anomalies. A Quick Response follow-up cross-check was analyzed with a result of 17,500 pCi/L (known 17,800 pCi/L). (NCR 21-11)
- 6.
The MAPEP August 2021 soil Ni-63 result was evaluated as Not Acceptable.
The reported value was 546 Bq/kg and the known result was 1,280 Bq/kg (acceptance range 896 - 1,664). All QC was reviewed and no anomalies found.
The procedure revision to remove added MAPAP interferences was ineffective for this sample. No client soil matrix samples were analyzed for Ni-63 in 2020 or 2021. The root cause investigation is still ongoing at this time. (NCR 21-13)
- 7.
The ERA December 2021 Quick Response water Gross Beta result was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value was 47.6 pCi/L and the known was 39.8 pCi/L or 120% of the known (acceptance range of 26.4-47.3).
The 2-sigma error was 6.1, placing the reported result well within the acceptable range. All QA was reviewed with no anomalies. The original sample was recounted on a different detector with a result of 40.3 +/- 6.27 pCi/L.
The "failure" of this sample and the RAD-127 was due to the narrow upper acceptance ranges assigned (119% and 112%) (NCR 21-14)
The Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program provides evidence of "in control" counting systems and methods, and that the laboratories are producing accurate and reliable data.

Summary and Conclusions In 2021, Exelon continued a comprehensive program that evaluates the impact of station operations on groundwater and surface water in the vicinity of Braidwood Station. This report reviews groundwater and surface water samples collected from the environment, both on and off station property, in 2021. During that time period, 416 analyses were performed on 136 samples from 35 locations.
In assessing all the data gathered for this report, it was concluded that the operation of Braidwood Station had no adverse radiological impact on the environment.
Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective Lower Limits of Detection (LLDs) as specified in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) in any of the groundwater or surface water samples. In the case of tritium, Exelon specified that its laboratories achieve a lower limit of detection 10 times less than Braidwood's ODCM and 100 times less than federal regulation.
Strontium-89/90 (Sr-89/90) was not detected at a concentration greater than the LLD of 10.0 and 1.0 picocuries per liter (pCi/L) respectively in any of the groundwater samples tested.
No tritium (H-3) was detected in any sample at concentrations greater than the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) drinking water standard (and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Reporting Limit) of 20,000 pCi/L. Low levels of tritium were detected in groundwater and surface water at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in 46 of 127 samples. The tritium concentrations ranged from 183 +/- 112 pCi/L to 801 +/- 163 pCi/L. T~e tritium that was detected in the groundwater or surface water is believed to be the result of isolated historical releases and/or background from external sources greater than 200 pCi/L.
Gross Alpha analyses in the dissolved and suspended fractions were performed on groundwater water samples throughout the sampling year in 2021. Gross Alpha (dissolved) was detected in 2 groundwater samples with concentrations ranging from 1.4 +/- 0.8 pCi/L to 2.7 +/- 1.0 pCi/L. Gross Alpha (suspended) was detected in 3 groundwater samples with concentrations ranging from 2.4 +/- 1.2 pCi/L to 5.2 +/- 1.4 pCi/L.
Gross Alpha analyses in the dissolved and suspended fractions were not performed on surface water samples in 2021.
Hard-To-Detect analyses including iron-55 (Fe-55), nickel-63 (Ni-63),
americium-241 (Am-241 ), cerium-242 (Cm-242), cerium 243/244 (Cm-243/244),
plutonium-238 (Pu-238), plutonium-239/240 (Pu-239/240), uranium-234 (U-234),
uranium-235 (U-235) and uranium-238 (U-238) were performed on 4 sample locations in 2021. All HTD's were below required detection limits.

Introduction The Braidwood Station, consisting of two 3,645 MWt pressurized water reactors owned and operated by Exelon Corporation is located in Will County, Illinois. Unit No. 1 went critical on May 29, 1987. Unit No. 2 went critical on March 08, 1988.
The site is located in northeastern Illinois, 20 miles south-southwest of Joliet, Illinois, 60 miles southwest of Chicago and southwest of the Kankakee River.
This report covers those analyses performed by Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE) and Environmental Inc. Midwest Labs (EIML) on samples collected in 2021.
A.
Objective of the Radiological Groundwater Protection Program (RGPP)
The long-term objectives of the RGPP are as follows:
- 1. Identify suitable locations to monitor and evaluate potential impacts from station operations to preclude radiological impact to the environment and potential drinking water sources;
- 2. Understand the local hydrogeologic regime in the vicinity of the station and maintain up-to-date knowledge of flow patterns on the surface and shallow subsurface;
- 3. Perform routine water sampling and radiological analysis of water from selected locations;
- 4. Report new leaks, spills, or other detections with potential radiological significance to stakeholders in a timely manner;
- 5. Regularly assess analytical results to identify adverse trends;
- 6. Take necessary corrective actions to protect groundwater resources.
B.
Implementation of the Objectives The objectives identified have been implemented at Braidwood Station as discussed below:
- 1.
Exelon identified locations to monitor and evaluated potential impacts from station operations
- 2.
The Braidwood Station reports describe the local hydrogeologic regime.
Periodically, the flow patterns on the surface and shallow subsurface are updated based on ongoing measurements
- 3.
Braidwood Station will continue to perform routine sampling and radiological analysis of water from selected locations
- 4.
Braidwood Station has implemented procedures to identify and report new leaks, spills, or other detections with potential radiological significance in a timely manner
- 5.
Braidwood Station staff and consulting hydrogeologist assess analytical results on an ongoing basis to identify adverse trends C.
Program Description 1. Sample Collection Sample locations can be found in Table A-1 and Figures A-1 through A-5, Appendix A.
- 2.
Groundwater and Surface Water Samples of groundwater and surface water are collected, managed, transported and analyzed in accordance with EPA methods. Sample locations, sample collection frequencies and analytical frequencies are managed in accordance with approved station procedures. Contractor and/or station personnel are trained in the collection, preservation management and shipment of samples as well as in documentation of sampling events. Analytical laboratories are subject to internal quality assurance programs, industry cross-check programs as well as nuclear industry audits. Station personnel review and evaluate all analytical data as it is received. Additionally, analytical data results are reviewed by an independent hydrogeologist for adverse trends or changes to hydrogeologic conditions.
D.
Characteristics of Tritium (H-3)
Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. Its chemical properties are the same as hydrogen. Tritiated water behaves the same as ordinary water in both the environment and the body. Tritiated water can be taken into the body by drinking water, breathing air, eating food or absorption through the skin. Once tritiated water enters the body, it disperses quickly and is uniformly distributed. Tritiated water is excreted primarily through urine with a clearance rate characterized by an effective biological half-life of about 14 days. With such a short biological half-life, an acute ingestion would be cleared rapidly. Organically bound tritium (tritium that is incorporated into carbon containing compounds) can remain in the body for a longer period.
Tritium is produced naturally in the upper atmosphere when cosmic rays interact with air molecules. Tritium is also produced during nuclear weapons explosions, as a by-product in reactors producing electricity and in special production reactors. Like normal water, tritiated water is colorless and odorless. Tritiated water behaves chemically and physically like non-tritiated water in the subsurface and therefore tritiated water will travel at the same velocity as non-tritiated groundwater.
Ill.
Program Description A.
Sample Analysis This section describes the general analytical methodologies used by Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE) and Environmental Incorporated Midwest Laboratory (EIML) to analyze the environmental samples for radioactivity for the Braidwood Station RGPP in 2021.
In order to achieve the stated objectives, the current program includes the following analyses:
- 1.
Concentrations of gamma emitters in groundwater and surface water
- 2.
Concentrations of strontium in groundwater and surface water
- 3.
Concentrations of tritium in groundwater and surface water
- 4.
Concentrations of Gross Alpha (Dissolved and Suspended) in groundwater and surface water
- 5.
Concentrations of Am-241 in groundwater
- 6.
Concentrations of Cm-242 and Cm-243/244 in groundwater
- 7.
Concentrations of Pu-238 and Pu-239/240 in groundwater
- 8.
Concentrations of U-234, U-235 and U-238 in groundwater
- 9.
Concentrations of Fe-55 in groundwater
- 10. Concentrations of Ni-63 in groundwater B.
Data Interpretation The radiological data collected prior to Braidwood Station becoming operational was used as a baseline with which these operational data was compared. For the purpose of this report, Braidwood Station was considered operational at initial criticality. Several factors were important in the interpretation of the data:
- 1.
Lower Limit of Detection and Minimum Detectable Concentration The lower limit of detection (LLD) is specified by federal regulation as a minimum sensitivity value that must be achieved routinely by the analytical parameter.
- 2.
Laboratory Measurements Uncertainty The estimated uncertainty in measurement of tritium in environmental samples is frequently on the order of 50% of the measurement value.
Statistically, the exact value of a measurement is expressed as a range with a stated level of confidence. The convention is to report results with a 95% level of confidence. The uncertainty comes from calibration standards, sample volume or weight measurements, sampling uncertainty and other factors. Exelon reports the uncertainty of a measurement created by statistical process (counting error) as well as all sources of error (Total Propagated Uncertainty or TPU). Each result has two values calculated. Exelon reports the TPU by following the result with plus or minus (+/-) the estimated sample standard deviation, as TPU, that is obtained by propagating all sources of analytical uncertainty in measurements.
Analytical uncertainties are reported at the 95% confidence level in this report for reporting consistency with the AREOR.
Gamma spectroscopy results for each type of sample were grouped as follows:
For groundwater and surface water 14 nuclides, Be-7, K-40, Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Nb-95, Zr-95, 1-131, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ba-140 and La-140 were reported.
C.
Background Analysis A pre-operational radiological environmental monitoring program (REMP) was conducted to establish background radioactivity levels prior to operation of the Station. The environmental media sampled and analyzed during the pre-operational REMP were atmospheric radiation, fall-out, domestic water, surface water, marine life and foodstuffs. The results of the monitoring were detailed in the report entitled, Environmental Radiological Monitoring for Braidwood Nuclear Power Station Commonwealth Edison Company, Annual Report 1986, May 1987.
- 1.
Background Concentrations of Tritium The purpose of the following discussion is to summarize background measurements of tritium in various media performed by others.
- a.
Tritium Production Tritium is created in the environment from naturally-occurring processes both cosmic and subterranean, as well as from anthropogenic (i.e., man-made) sources. In the upper atmosphere, "Cosmogenic" tritium is produced from the bombardment of stable nuclides and combines with oxygen to form tritiated water, which will then enter the hydrologic cycle. Below ground, "lithogenic" tritium is produced by the bombardment of natural lithium present in crystalline rocks by neutrons produced by the radioactive decay of naturally abundant uranium and thorium. Lithogenic production of tritium is usually negligible compared to other sources due to the limited abundance of lithium in rock. The lithogenic tritium is introduced directly to groundwater.
A major anthropogenic source of tritium and Sr-90 comes from the former atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Levels of tritium in precipitation increased significantly during the 1950s and early 1960s and later with additional testing, resulting in the release of significant amounts of tritium to the atmosphere. The Canadian heavy water nuclear power reactors, other commercial power reactors, nuclear research and weapons production continue to influence tritium concentrations in the environment.

Precipitation Data Precipitation samples are routinely collected at stations around the world for the analysis of tritium and other radionuclides. Two publicly available databases that provide tritium concentrations in
. precipitation are Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP) and USEPA's RadNet database. GNIP provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected worldwide from 1960 to 2014. RadNet provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected at stations throughout the U.S. from 1960 up to and including 2021. Based on GNIP data for sample stations located in the U.S. Midwest, tritium concentrations peaked around 1963. This peak, which approached 10,000 pCi/L for some stations, coincided with the atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Tritium concentrations in surface water showed a sharp decline up until 1975 followed by a gradual decline since that time. Tritium concentrations in Midwest precipitation have typically been below 100 pCi/L since around 1980. Tritium concentrations in wells may still be above the 200 pCi/L detection limit from the external causes described above. Water from previous years and decades is naturally captured in groundwater, so some well water sources today are affected by the surface water from the 1960s that was elevated in tritium.
- c.
Surface Water Data Tritium concentrations are routinely measured in large surface water bodies, including Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River.
Illinois surface water data were typically less than 100 pCi/L.
The USEPA Rad Net surface water data typically has a reported
'Combined Standard Uncertainty' of 35 to 50 pCi/L. According to USEPA, this corresponds to a+/- 70 to 100 pCi/L 95% confidence bound on each given measurement. Therefore, the typical background data provided may be subject to measurement uncertainty of approximately +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L.
The radio-analytical laboratory is counting tritium results to an Exelon-specified LLD of 200 pCi/L. Typically, the lowest positive measurement will be reported within a range of 40 - 240 pCi/L or 140 +/- 100 pCi/L. These sample results cannot be distinguished as different from background at this concentration.
IV.
Results and Discussion A.
Missed Samples There were no missed samples during 2021.
B.
Groundwater Results Samples were collected from on-and off-site wells throughout the year in accordance with the Station radiological groundwater protection program.
Analytical results and anomalies are discussed below:
Tritium Samples from all locations were analyzed for tritium activity. Tritium values ranged from the lower detection limit to 801 pCi/L.
(Tables B-1.1, Appendix B)
Strontium Thirty-six samples for analyzed for Sr-89 and Sr-90. Sr-89 was less than the required detection limit of 10.0 pCi/liter. Sr-90 was less than the required detection limit of 1.0 pCi/liter. (Table B-1.1, Appendix B)
Gross Alpha (dissolved and suspended)
Gross Alpha analyses in the dissolved and suspended fractions were performed on groundwater water samples throughout the sampling year in 2021. Gross Alpha (suspended) was detected in 2 groundwater samples with a concentration range of 1.4 +/- 0.8 pCi/L to 2.7 +/- 1.0 pCi/L. Gross Alpha (dissolved) was detected in 2 groundwater samples. The concentrations ranged from 2.4 +/- 1.2 pCi/L to 5.2 +/- 1.4 pCi/L.
(Table B-1.1, Appendix B)
Hard-To-Detect Hard-To-Detect analyses including Fe-55, Ni-63, Am-241, Cm-242, Cm-243/244, Pu-238, Pu-239/240, U-234, U-235 and U-238 were analyzed at 4 locations in 2021. All HTD's were less than required detection limits.
(Table B-1.3, Appendix B)
Gamma Emitters Naturally-occurring K-40 was detected in two samples with concentrations of 42 +/- 28 pCi/L and 72 +/- 33 pCi/L. No other gamma-emitting nuclides were detected in any of the samples analyzed. (Table B-1.2, Appendix B)
C.
Surface Water Results Samples were collected from two surface water locations throughout the year in accordance with the station radiological groundwater protection program. Analytical results and anomalies are discussed below:
Tritium Samples from all locations were analyzed for tritium activity. Tritium values were all less than the lower limit of detection. (Table B-I1.1, Appendix B)
D.
Summary of Results - Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program results for TBE are presented in the AREOR.
E.
Leaks, Spills, and Releases There were no leaks, spills or releases to groundwater in 2021.
F.
Trends and Analyses Since June 2017, the CWBD House well tritium concentrations have been decreasing steadily. Monitoring of groundwater wells surrounding the plant indicate that tritium concentrations in affected areas near the Turbine Building have remained relatively unchanged since 2010.
G.
Investigations There were no new investigations in 2021.
H.
Actions Taken
- 1. Installation of Monitoring Wells Corrective actions taken in response to the CWBD House event included the placement of multiple monitoring wells at various depths in the vicinity of the CWBD house to determine soil contamination levels, as well as the establishment of soil remediation efforts to remove the tritium contamination from the area.
- 2. Compensatory Actions The discharges of the CWBD House remediation wells are treated as non-routine planned discharges. They are sampled regularly and permitted in the same manner as other ODCM pathways. The corresponding activity values are included as part of Table B-I.1 in this report.
- 3. Use of all remediation and support equipment from Exelon Braidwood Station property has stopped due to closure of the Braidwood Generating Station Consent Order No. 06 MR 248. Consent Order No.
06 MR 248 was terminated on May 14, 2020 by the Illinois Attorney General and Illinois Environmental Protection Agency.
