1 Limit from 10 CFR 20 Appendix B, Table 2, Columns 1 and 2. Air limit adjusted to reflect NRC License SNM-1097, Section 1.3.9.

2 This nuclide is included due to the the neutron generator licensed by the State of North Carolina.

3 From nuclide with release that is the largest percentage of its release limit.

Notes:

Air sampling is continuous. H-3 gaseous effluent is calculated. Water samples analyzed are representative, continuous composite samples of the process effluent stream.

Reported effluent concentration values are representative of the effluent concentration at the point of release and do not consider effects of dilution from point of release to the plant site boundary.
