TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION/ODCM LIMITS A)
FISSION AND ACTIVATION GASES
- 1.
The dose rate limit of noble gases released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at or beyond the site boundary shall be less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin.
- 2.
The air dose from noble gases released in gaseous effluents from Nine Mile Point Unit 2 to areas at or beyond the site boundary shall be limited during any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 5 mrad for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 10 mrad for beta radiation, and during any calendar year to less than or equal to 10 mrad for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 20 mrad for beta radiation.
B&C) TRITIUM, IODINES AND PARTICULATES, HALF LIVES> 8 DAYS

MEASUREMENTS AND APPROXIMATIONS OF TOT AL RADIOACTIVITY Described below are the methods used to measure or approximate the total radioactivity and radionuclide composition in effluents.
A)
FISSION AND ACTIVATION GASES Noble gas effluent activity is determined by an on-line scintillation detector (calibrated against gamma isotopic analysis of a 4.0L Marinelli grab sample) of an isokinetic sample stream.
B)
IODINES Iodine effluent activity is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis (at least weekly) of charcoal cartridges sampled from an isokinetic sample stream.
C)
PARTICULATES Activity released from the main stack and the combined Radwaste/Reactor Building vent is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis (at least weekly) of particulate filters sampled from an isokinetic sample stream and composite analysis of the filters for non-gamma emitters.
D)
TRITIUM Tritium effluent activity is measured by liquid scintillation or gas proportional counting of monthly samples taken with an air sparging/water trap apparatus.
E)
LIQUID EFFLUENTS Isotopic contents of liquid effluents are determined by isotopic analysis of a representative sample of each batch and composite analysis of non-gamma emitters.
F)
SOLID EFFLUENTS Isotopic contents of waste shipments are determined by gamma spectroscopy analyses of a representative sample of each batch.
Scaling factors established from primary composite sample analyses conducted off-site are applied, where appropriate, to find estimated concentration of non-gamma emitters.
For low activity trash shipments, curie content is estimated by dose rate measurement and application of appropriate scaling factors.
G)
C-14 The production ofC-14 and the effluent dose consequences are estimates based on EPRI methodology provided in EPRI Report 1021106, Estimation ofCarbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents, December 2010 and NUREG-0016, Calculation of Releases of Radioactive Materials in Gaseous and Liquid Effluents for Boiling Water Reactors (BWR-GALE Code).

Reporting Period: January-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES INSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Introduction An assessment of the radiation dose potentially received by a Member of the Public due to their activities inside the site boundary from Nine Mile Point Unit 2 (NMP2) liquid and gaseous effluents has been conducted for the period January through December 2015.
This assessment considers the maximum exposed individual and the various exposure pathways resulting from liquid and gaseous effluents to identify the maximum dose received by a Member of the Public during their activities within the site boundary.
Prior to September 11, 2001, the public had access to the Energy Information Center for purposes of observing the educational displays or for picnicking and associated activities. Fishing also occurred near the shoreline adjacent to the Nine Mile Point (NMP) site. Fishing near the shoreline adjacent to the NMP site was the onsite activity that resulted in the potential maximum dose received by a Member of the Public. Following September 11, 2001 public access to the Energy Information Center has been restricted and fishing by Members of the Public at locations on site is also pro,hibited. Although fishing was not conducted during 2015 the annual dose to a hypothetical fisherman was still evaluated to provide continuity of data for the location.
Dose Pathways Dose pathways considered for this evaluation included direct radiation, inhalation and external ground (shoreline sediment or soil doses). Other pathways, such as ingestion pathways, are not considered because they are either not applicable, insignificant, or are considered as part of the evaluation of the total dose to a member of the public located off-site. In addition, only releases from the NMP2 Stack and Radwaste/Reactor Building Vent were evaluated for the inhalation pathway. Dose due to aquatic pathways such as liquid effluents is not applicable since swimming is prohibited at the NMP site.
Dose to a hypothetical fisherman is received through the following pathways while standing on the shoreline fishing:
External ground pathway; this dose is received from plant related radionuclides detected in the shoreline sediment.
Inhalation pathway; this dose is received through inhalation of gaseous effluents released from the NMP2 Stack and Radwaste/Reactor Building Vent.
Direct radiation pathway; dose resulting from the operation of Nine Mile Point Unit 1 (NMPl), NMP2 and the James A. Fitzpatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP) Facilities.
Methodologies for Determining Dose for Applicable Pathways External Ground (Shoreline Sediment) Pathway Dose from the external ground (shoreline sediment) is based on the methodology in the NMP2 Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. For this evaluation it is assumed that the hypothetical maximum exposed individual fished from the shoreline at all times.

Reporting Period: January-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES INSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Direct Radiation Pathway The direct radiation pathway is evaluated in accordance with the methodology found in the NMP2 ODCM.
This pathway considers four components: direct radiation from the generating facilities, direct radiation from any possible overhead plume, direct radiation from ground deposition and direct radiation from plume submersion. The direct radiation pathway is evaluated by the use of high sensitivity environmental Thermo luminescent Dosimeters (TLDs ). Since fishing activities occur between April 1 and December 31, TLD data for the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2015 from TLDs placed in the general area where fishing once occurred were used to determine an average dose to the hypothetical maximum exposed fisherman from direct radiation. The following is a summary of the average dose rate and assumed time spent on site used to determine the total dose received:

Reporting Period: Januarv-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Introduction An assessment of radiation doses potentially received by the likely most exposed Member of the Public located beyond the site boundary was conducted for the period January through December 2015 for comparison against the 40 CPR 190 annual dose limits.
The intent of 40 CPR 190 requires that the effluents of Nine Mile Point Unit 1 (NMPl), as well as other nearby uranium fuel cycle facilities, be considered. In this case, the effluents ofNMPl, Nine Mile Point Unit 2 (NMP2) and the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP) facilities must be considered.
40 CPR 190 requires the annual radiation dose received by Members of the Public in the general environment, as a result of plant operations, be limited to:
< 25 mRem whole body
< 25 mRem any organ (except thyroid)
< 75 mRem thyroid This evaluation compares doses resulting from liquid and gaseous effluents and direct radiation originating from the site as a result of the operation of~he NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP nuclear facilities.
Dose Pathways Dose pathways considered for this evaluation included doses resulting from liquid effluents, gaseous effluents and direct radiation from all nuclear operating facilities located on the Nine Mile Point site.
Dose to the likely most exposed Member of the Public, outside the site boundary, is received through the following pathways:
Fish consumption pathway; this dose is received from plant radionuclides that have concentrated in fish that is consumed by a Member of the Public.
Vegetation consumption pathway; this dose is received from plant radionuclides that have concentrated in vegetation that is consumed by a Member of the Public.
Shoreline Sediment; this dose is received as a result of an individual's exposure to plant radionuclides
. in the shoreline sediment, which is used as a recreational area.
Deposition, Inhalation and Ingestion pathways resulting from gaseous effluents; this dose is received through exposure to gaseous effluents released from NMPI, NMP2 and JAFNPP operating facilities.
Direct Radiation pathway; radiation dose resulting from the operation ofNMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP facilities (including the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations (ISFSI)).
Methodologies for Determining Dose for Applicable Pathways Fish Consumption Dose received as a result of fish consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose for 2015 is calculated from actual analysis results of environmental fish samples taken near the site discharge points. For this evaluation it is assumed that the most likely exposed Member of the Public consumes fish taken near the site discharge points.
No radionuclides were detected in fish samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore, no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
ATTACHMENT 11 Page 2 of 5 Unit 1 Unit2_X __
Reporting Period: Januarv-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Vegetation Consumption Dose received as a result of vegetation consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose for 2015 is calculated from actual analysis results of environmental vegetation samples taken near the most exposed Member of the Public.
No radionuclides were detected in vegetation samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore, no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
For estimating C-14, dose received as a result of vegetation consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The estimated concentration of C-14 in vegetation is based on the estimated concentration of C-14 in plant gaseous effluents.
Shoreline Sediment Dose received from shoreline sediment is based on the methodology in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. For this evaluation it is assumed that the most likely exposed Member of the Public spends 67 hour7.75463e-4 days <br />0.0186 hours <br />1.107804e-4 weeks <br />2.54935e-5 months <br />s/year alo~g the shoreline for recreational purposes.
No radionuclides were detected in shoreline sediment samples collected and a~alyzed dilring 2015; therefore no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
Dose Pathways Resulting From Gaseous Effluents Dose received by the likely most exposed Member of the Public due to gaseous effluents is calculated in accordance with the methodology provided in the NMPl ODCM, NMP2 ODCM, and the JAFNPP ODCM. These calculations consider deposition, inhalation and ingestion pathways. The total sum of doses resulting from gaseous effluents from NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP during 2015 provides a total dose to the whole body and maximum organ dose for this pathway.
Carbon-14 Dose Pathways Resulting from Gaseous Effluents The Carbon-14 (C-14) effluent source terms are used to estimate radiological doses from C-14 in site gaseous waste effluents. These estimates were generated in order to meet the NRC requirement to incorporate C-14 in nuclear power plant 2015 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Reports (ARERRs). The C-14 production and effluent source term estimates were based on EPRI methodology provided in EPRI Report 1021106, Estimation of Carbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents, December 2010. The following methodology was used in estimating C-14 gaseous release activity and dose components for the 2015 ARERR.
EPRI methodology for estimating C-14 production rates in Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs):
For BWRs, EPRI Report 1021106 summarized the distribution of C-14 in release pathways as follows: gaseous 95% to 99%, liquid <0.5% and solid 1 % to 5%. The report also states that ~95% of C-14 in BWR gaseous waste effluents exists in the carbon dioxide form, which contributes to population dose via photosynthesis uptake in the food consumption cycle.

MEASUREMENTS AND APPROXIMATIONS OF TOTAL RADIOACTIVITY Described below are the methods used to measure or approximate the total radioactivity and radionuclide composition in effluents.
A)
FISSION AND ACTIVATION GASES Noble gas effluent activity is determined by on-line gross activity monitoring (calibrated against gamma isotopic analysis of a 4.0L Marinelli grab sample) of an isokinetic stack sample stream.
B)
IODINES Iodine effluent activity is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis (at least weekly) of charcoal cartridges sampled from an isokinetic stack sample stream.
C)
PARTICULATES Activity released from the main stack is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis (at least weekly) of particulate filters sampled from an isokinetic sample stream and composite analysis of the filters for non-gamma emitters.
D)
TRITIUM Tritium effluent activity is measured by liquid scintillation or gas proportionar' counting of monthly samples taken with an air sparging/water trap apparatus. Tritium effluent activicy is measured during purge and weekly when fuel is offloaded until stable tritium release rates are demonstrated.
E)
EMERGENCY CONDENSER VENT EFFLUENTS The effluent curie quantities are estimated based on the isotopic distribution in the Condensate Storage Tank water and the Emergency Condenser shell water.
Actual isotopic concentrations are found via gamma spectroscopy. Initial release rates of Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55 are estimated by applying scaling factors to release rates of gamma emitters and actual release rates are determined from post offsite analysis results. The activity of fission and activation gases released due to tube leaks is based.on reactor steam leak rates using offgas isotopic analyses.
F)
LIQUID EFFLUENTS Isotopic contents of liquid effluents are determined by isotopic analysis of a representative sample of each batch and composite analysis of non-gamma emitters. Tritium activity is estimated on the most recent analysis of the Condensate Storage Tank water. Initial release rates of Sr-89, Sr-90, and Fe-55 are estimated by applying scaling factors to release rates of gamma emitters and actual release rates are determined from post offsite analysis results.
G)
SOLID EFFLUENTS Isotopic *contents of waste shipments are determined by gamma spectroscopy ;:inalysis of a representative sample of each batch. Scaling factors established from primary composite sample analyses conducted off-site are applied, where appropriate, to find estimated concentration of non-gamma emitters. For low activity trash shipments, curie content is estimated by dose rate measurement and application of appropriate scaling factors.
H)
C-14 The production of C-14 and the effluent dose consequences are estimates based on EPRI methodology provided in EPRI Report 1021106, Estimation ofCarbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents, December 2010 and NUREG-0016, Calculation of Releases of Radioactive Materials in Gaseous and Liquid Effluents for Boiling Water Reactors (BWR-GALE Code).

N/A I Ci In August 2012, tritium was identified in ground water outside Unit 1. Subsequent investigations determined the source of tritium was Emergency Condenser Vent discharges (during periodic testing, as well as past events). Per the ODCM, and through station procedures, the gaseous and liquid effluent releases to the environment via the Emergency Condenser pathway are analyzed and reported in the monthly effluent releases and reported annually in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report (RERR).
As a result of this discovery, the Unit 1 ODCM was revised (Revision 34) to require composite samples of discharges from the Reactor Building Perimeter Drain be collected and analyzed, and total curies reported in the RERR. Because this activity has been accounted for in previous RERRs, it is to be reported as a separate item, and not included in the liquid releases (Attachment 5).
Since 2003, the Emergency Condensers have been actuated 7 times. These are identified in the 2003, 2004, 2009, 201 O and 2013 RERRs. The perimeter drain pumps were out of service between 2008 and 2012. Releases prior to that are assumed to have been dicharged to the storm drains while the pumps were functional. During the first quarter of 2015, Tritium was detected in the Perimeter Drain discharge at 2.53E-06 µCi/ml resulting in 0.023 Ci of tritium being release. No tritium was detected in the second, third or fourth quarters of 2015. No other isotopes were identified.

SUMMARY
OF NON-FUNCTIONAL MONITORS Monitor Dates Monitor was Cause and Corrective Actions Non-Functional Liquid Radwaste January 1, 2015 to These monitors were intentionally allowed to exceed their quarterly Discharge Monitors December 31, 2015 functional test and annual calibration frequency, as no discharges 11and12 are planned or expected. This condition is allowed as long as blank flanges are installed in the discharge line, precluding any unmonitored discharge. No liquid waste discharges were performed during 2015. This non-functionality is tracked in Equipment Status Log (ESL) 2006-0192.

Unit 2 Reporting Period: January - December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES INSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Introduction An assessment of the radiation dose potentially received by a Member of the Public due to their activities inside the site boundary from Nine Mile Point Unit I (NMPI) liquid and gaseous effluents has been conducted for the period January through December 2015.
This assessment considers the maximum exposed individual and the various exposure pathways resulting from liquid and gaseous effluents to identify the maximum dose received by a Member of the Public during their activities within the site boundary.
Prior to September 11, 2001, the public had access to the Energy Information Center for purposes of observing the educational displays or for picnicking and associated activities. Fishing also occurred near the shoreline adjacent to the Nine Mile Point (NMP) site. Fishing near the shoreline adjacent to the NMP site was the onsite activity that resulted in the potential maximum dose received by a Member of the Public. Following September 11, 2001 public access to the Energy Information Center has been restricted and fishing by Members of the Public at locations on site is also prohibited. Although fishing was not conducted during 2015, the annual dose to a hypothetical fisherman was still evaluated to provide continuity of data for the location.
Dose Pathways Dose pathways considered for this evaluation included direct radiation, inhalation and external ground (shoreline sediment or soil doses). Other pathways, such as ingestion pathways, are not considered because they are either not applicable, insignificant, or are considered as part of the evaluation of the total dose to a member of the public located off-site. In addition, only releases from the NMPI stack and emergency condenser vent were evaluated for the inhalation pathway. Dose due to aquatic pathways such as liquid effluents is not applicable since swimming is prohibited at the NMP site.
Dose to a hypothetical fisherman is received through the following pathways while standing on the shoreline fishing:
External ground pathway; this dose is received from plant related radionuclides detected in the shoreline sediment.
Inhalation pathway; this dose is received through inhalation of gaseous effluents released from the NMPI Stack and Emergency Condenser Vent.
Direct radiation pathway; dose resulting from the operation ofNMPl, Nine Mile Point Unit 2 (NMP2) and the James A. Fitzpatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP) Facilities..
Methodologies for Determining Dose for Applicable Pathways External Ground (Shoreline Sediment) Pathway Dose from the external ground (shoreline sediment) is based on the methodology in the NMPl Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. For this evaluation it is assumed that the hypothetical maximum exposed individual fished from the shoreline at all times.

The total whole body dose and maximum organ dose received by the hypothetical maximum exposed fisherman is presented in Table 1, Exposure Pathway Annual Dose.
Direct Radiation Pathway The direct radiation pathway is evaluated in accordance with the methodology found in the NMPl ODCM. This pathway considers four components: direct radiation from the generating facilities, direct radiation from any possible overhead plume, direct radiation from ground deposition and direct radiation from plume submersion.
The direct radiation pathway is evaluated by the use of high sensitivity environmental Thermoluminescent Dosimeters (TLDs). Since fishing activities occur between April 1 and December 31, TLD data for the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2015 from TLDs placed in the general area where fishing once occurred were used to determine an average dose to the hypothetical maximum exposed fisherman from direct radiation. The following is a summary of the average dose rate and assumed time spent on site used to determine the total dose received:

Unit 2 Reporting Period: January-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Introduction An assessment of radiation doses potentially received by the likely most exposed Member of the Public located beyond the site boundary was conducted for the period January through December 2015 for comparison against the 40 CPR 190 annual dose limits.
The intent of 40 CPR 190 requires that the effluents of Nine Mile Point Unit 1 (NMPl), as well as other nearby uranium fuel cycle facilities, be considered. In this case, the effluents of NMPl, Nine Mile Point Unit 2 (NMP2) and the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP) facilities must be considered.
40 CPR 190 requires the annual radiation dose received by Members of the Public in the general environment, as a result of plant operations, be limited to:
< 25 mRem whole body
< 25 mRem any organ (except thyroid)
< 75 mRem thyroid This evaluation compares doses resulting from liquid and gaseous effluents and direct radiation originating from the site as a result of the operation of the NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP nuclear facilities.
Dose Pathways Dose pathways considered for this*evaluation included doses resulting from liquid effluents, gaseous effluents and direct radiation from all nuclear operating facilities located on the Nine Mile Point site.
Dose to the likely most exposed Member of the Public, outside the site boundary, is received through the following pathways:
Fish consumption pathway; this dose is received from plant radionuclides that have concentrated in fish that is consumed by a Member of the Public.
Vegetation consumption pathway; this dose is received from plant radionuclides that have concentrated in vegetation that is consumed by a Member of the Public.
Shoreline Sediment; this dose is received as a result of an individual's exposure to plant radionuclides in the shoreline sediment, which is used as a recreational area.
Deposition, Inhalation and Ingestion pathways resulting from gaseous effluents; this dose is received through exposure to gaseous effluents released from NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP operating facilities.
Direct Radiation pathway; radiation dose resulting from the operation ofNMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP facilities (including the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations (ISFSI)).
Methodologies for Determining Dose for Applicable Pathways Fish Consumption Dose received as a result of fish consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose for 2015 is calculated from actual analysis results of environmental fish samples taken near the site discharge points. For this evaluation it is assumed that the most likely exposed Member of the Public consumes fish taken near the site discharge points.
No radionuclides were detected in fish samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore, no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
ATTACHMENT 11 Page 2 of 5 Unit 1 _x_
Unit 2 Reporting Period: January - December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Vegetation Consumption Dose received as a result of vegetation consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose for 2015 is calculated from actual analysis results of environlliental vegetation samples taken near the most exposed Member of the Public.
No radionuclides were detected in vegetation samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore, no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
For estimating C-14, dose received as a result of vegetation consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The estimated concentration of C-14 in vegetation is based on the estimated concentration of C-14 in plant gaseous effluents.
Shoreline Sediment Dose received from shoreline sediment is based on the methodology in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. For this evaluation it is assumed that the most likely exposed Member of the Public spends 67 hour7.75463e-4 days <br />0.0186 hours <br />1.107804e-4 weeks <br />2.54935e-5 months <br />s/year along the shoreline for recreational purposes.
No radionuclides were detected in shoreline sediment samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
Dose Pathways Resulting From Gaseous Effluents Dose received by the likely most exposed Member of the Public due to gaseous effluents is calculated in accordance with the methodology provided in the NMPl ODCM, NMP2 ODCM, and the JAFNPP ODCM. These calculations consider deposition, inhalation and ingestion pathways. The total sum of doses resulting from gaseous effluents from NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP during 2015 provides a total dose to the whole body and maximum organ dose for this pathway.
Carbon-14 Dose Pathways Resulting from Gaseous Effluents The Carbon-14 (C-14) effluent source terms are used to estimate radiological doses from C-14 in site gaseous waste effluents. These estimates were generated in order to meet the NRC requirement to incorporate C-14 in nuclear power plant 2015 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Reports (ARERRs). The C-14 production and effluent source term estimates were based on EPRI methodology provided in EPRI Report 1021106, Estimation of Carbon-14 in Nuclear Power Piant Gaseous Effluents, December 2010. The following metho.dology was used in estimating C-14 gaseous release activity and dose components for the 2015 ARERR.
EPRI methodology for estimating C-14 production rates in Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs):
For BWRs, EPRI Report 1021106 summarized the distribution of C-14 in release pathways as follows: gaseous 95% to 99%, liquid <0.5% and solid 1 % to 5%. The report also states that -95% of C-14 in BWR gaseous waste effluents exists in the carbon dioxide form, which contributes to population dose via photosynthesis uptake in the food consumption cycle.

Unit 2 Reporting Period: January - December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Direct Radiation Pathway Dose as a result of direct gamma radiation from the site, encompasses doses from direct "shine" from the generating facilities, direct radiation from any overhead gaseous plumes, plume submersion, and ground deposition. This total dose is measured by environmental TLDs. The critical location is based on the closest year-round residence from the generating facilities as well as the closest residence in the critical downwind sector in order to evaluate both direct radiation from the generating facilities and gaseous plumes as determined by the local meteorology. During 2015, the closest residence and the critical downwind residence are at the same location.

FISSION AND ACTIVATION GASES Noble gas effluent activity is determined by an on-line scintillation detector (calibrated against gamma isotopic analysis of a 4.0L Marinelli grab sample) of an isokinetic sample stream.
B)
IODINES Iodine effluent activity is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis (at least weekly) of charcoal cartridges sampled from an isokinetic sample stream.
C)
PARTICULATES Activity released from the main stack and the combined Radwaste/Reactor Building vent is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis (at least weekly) of particulate filters sampled from an isokinetic sample stream and composite analysis of the filters for non-gamma emitters.
D)
TRITIUM Tritium effluent activity is measured by liquid scintillation or gas proportional counting of monthly samples taken with an air sparging/water trap apparatus.
E)
LIQUID EFFLUENTS Isotopic contents of liquid effluents are determined by isotopic analysis of a representative sample of each batch and composite analysis of non-gamma emitters.
F)
SOLID EFFLUENTS Isotopic contents of waste shipments are determined by gamma spectroscopy analyses of a representative sample of each batch.
Scaling factors established from primary composite sample analyses conducted off-site are applied, where appropriate, to find estimated concentration of non-gamma emitters.
For low activity trash shipments, curie content is estimated by dose rate measurement and application of appropriate scaling factors.
G)
C-14 The production ofC-14 and the effluent dose consequences are estimates based on EPRI methodology provided in EPRI Report 1021106, Estimation ofCarbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents, December 2010 and NUREG-0016, Calculation of Releases of Radioactive Materials in Gaseous and Liquid Effluents for Boiling Water Reactors (BWR-GALE Code).

Reporting Period: January-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES INSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Introduction An assessment of the radiation dose potentially received by a Member of the Public due to their activities inside the site boundary from Nine Mile Point Unit 2 (NMP2) liquid and gaseous effluents has been conducted for the period January through December 2015.
This assessment considers the maximum exposed individual and the various exposure pathways resulting from liquid and gaseous effluents to identify the maximum dose received by a Member of the Public during their activities within the site boundary.
Prior to September 11, 2001, the public had access to the Energy Information Center for purposes of observing the educational displays or for picnicking and associated activities. Fishing also occurred near the shoreline adjacent to the Nine Mile Point (NMP) site. Fishing near the shoreline adjacent to the NMP site was the onsite activity that resulted in the potential maximum dose received by a Member of the Public. Following September 11, 2001 public access to the Energy Information Center has been restricted and fishing by Members of the Public at locations on site is also pro,hibited. Although fishing was not conducted during 2015 the annual dose to a hypothetical fisherman was still evaluated to provide continuity of data for the location.
Dose Pathways Dose pathways considered for this evaluation included direct radiation, inhalation and external ground (shoreline sediment or soil doses). Other pathways, such as ingestion pathways, are not considered because they are either not applicable, insignificant, or are considered as part of the evaluation of the total dose to a member of the public located off-site. In addition, only releases from the NMP2 Stack and Radwaste/Reactor Building Vent were evaluated for the inhalation pathway. Dose due to aquatic pathways such as liquid effluents is not applicable since swimming is prohibited at the NMP site.
Dose to a hypothetical fisherman is received through the following pathways while standing on the shoreline fishing:
External ground pathway; this dose is received from plant related radionuclides detected in the shoreline sediment.
Inhalation pathway; this dose is received through inhalation of gaseous effluents released from the NMP2 Stack and Radwaste/Reactor Building Vent.
Direct radiation pathway; dose resulting from the operation of Nine Mile Point Unit 1 (NMPl), NMP2 and the James A. Fitzpatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP) Facilities.
Methodologies for Determining Dose for Applicable Pathways External Ground (Shoreline Sediment) Pathway Dose from the external ground (shoreline sediment) is based on the methodology in the NMP2 Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. For this evaluation it is assumed that the hypothetical maximum exposed individual fished from the shoreline at all times.

Reporting Period: January-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES INSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Direct Radiation Pathway The direct radiation pathway is evaluated in accordance with the methodology found in the NMP2 ODCM.
This pathway considers four components: direct radiation from the generating facilities, direct radiation from any possible overhead plume, direct radiation from ground deposition and direct radiation from plume submersion. The direct radiation pathway is evaluated by the use of high sensitivity environmental Thermo luminescent Dosimeters (TLDs ). Since fishing activities occur between April 1 and December 31, TLD data for the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2015 from TLDs placed in the general area where fishing once occurred were used to determine an average dose to the hypothetical maximum exposed fisherman from direct radiation. The following is a summary of the average dose rate and assumed time spent on site used to determine the total dose received:

Reporting Period: Januarv-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Introduction An assessment of radiation doses potentially received by the likely most exposed Member of the Public located beyond the site boundary was conducted for the period January through December 2015 for comparison against the 40 CPR 190 annual dose limits.
The intent of 40 CPR 190 requires that the effluents of Nine Mile Point Unit 1 (NMPl), as well as other nearby uranium fuel cycle facilities, be considered. In this case, the effluents ofNMPl, Nine Mile Point Unit 2 (NMP2) and the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP) facilities must be considered.
40 CPR 190 requires the annual radiation dose received by Members of the Public in the general environment, as a result of plant operations, be limited to:
< 25 mRem whole body
< 25 mRem any organ (except thyroid)
< 75 mRem thyroid This evaluation compares doses resulting from liquid and gaseous effluents and direct radiation originating from the site as a result of the operation of~he NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP nuclear facilities.
Dose Pathways Dose pathways considered for this evaluation included doses resulting from liquid effluents, gaseous effluents and direct radiation from all nuclear operating facilities located on the Nine Mile Point site.
Dose to the likely most exposed Member of the Public, outside the site boundary, is received through the following pathways:
Fish consumption pathway; this dose is received from plant radionuclides that have concentrated in fish that is consumed by a Member of the Public.
Vegetation consumption pathway; this dose is received from plant radionuclides that have concentrated in vegetation that is consumed by a Member of the Public.
Shoreline Sediment; this dose is received as a result of an individual's exposure to plant radionuclides
. in the shoreline sediment, which is used as a recreational area.
Deposition, Inhalation and Ingestion pathways resulting from gaseous effluents; this dose is received through exposure to gaseous effluents released from NMPI, NMP2 and JAFNPP operating facilities.
Direct Radiation pathway; radiation dose resulting from the operation ofNMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP facilities (including the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations (ISFSI)).
Methodologies for Determining Dose for Applicable Pathways Fish Consumption Dose received as a result of fish consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose for 2015 is calculated from actual analysis results of environmental fish samples taken near the site discharge points. For this evaluation it is assumed that the most likely exposed Member of the Public consumes fish taken near the site discharge points.
No radionuclides were detected in fish samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore, no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
ATTACHMENT 11 Page 2 of 5 Unit 1 Unit2_X __
Reporting Period: Januarv-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Vegetation Consumption Dose received as a result of vegetation consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose for 2015 is calculated from actual analysis results of environmental vegetation samples taken near the most exposed Member of the Public.
No radionuclides were detected in vegetation samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore, no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
For estimating C-14, dose received as a result of vegetation consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The estimated concentration of C-14 in vegetation is based on the estimated concentration of C-14 in plant gaseous effluents.
Shoreline Sediment Dose received from shoreline sediment is based on the methodology in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. For this evaluation it is assumed that the most likely exposed Member of the Public spends 67 hour7.75463e-4 days <br />0.0186 hours <br />1.107804e-4 weeks <br />2.54935e-5 months <br />s/year alo~g the shoreline for recreational purposes.
No radionuclides were detected in shoreline sediment samples collected and a~alyzed dilring 2015; therefore no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
Dose Pathways Resulting From Gaseous Effluents Dose received by the likely most exposed Member of the Public due to gaseous effluents is calculated in accordance with the methodology provided in the NMPl ODCM, NMP2 ODCM, and the JAFNPP ODCM. These calculations consider deposition, inhalation and ingestion pathways. The total sum of doses resulting from gaseous effluents from NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP during 2015 provides a total dose to the whole body and maximum organ dose for this pathway.
Carbon-14 Dose Pathways Resulting from Gaseous Effluents The Carbon-14 (C-14) effluent source terms are used to estimate radiological doses from C-14 in site gaseous waste effluents. These estimates were generated in order to meet the NRC requirement to incorporate C-14 in nuclear power plant 2015 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Reports (ARERRs). The C-14 production and effluent source term estimates were based on EPRI methodology provided in EPRI Report 1021106, Estimation of Carbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents, December 2010. The following methodology was used in estimating C-14 gaseous release activity and dose components for the 2015 ARERR.
EPRI methodology for estimating C-14 production rates in Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs):
For BWRs, EPRI Report 1021106 summarized the distribution of C-14 in release pathways as follows: gaseous 95% to 99%, liquid <0.5% and solid 1 % to 5%. The report also states that ~95% of C-14 in BWR gaseous waste effluents exists in the carbon dioxide form, which contributes to population dose via photosynthesis uptake in the food consumption cycle.

MEASUREMENTS AND APPROXIMATIONS OF TOTAL RADIOACTIVITY Described below are the methods used to measure or approximate the total radioactivity and radionuclide composition in effluents.
A)
FISSION AND ACTIVATION GASES Noble gas effluent activity is determined by on-line gross activity monitoring (calibrated against gamma isotopic analysis of a 4.0L Marinelli grab sample) of an isokinetic stack sample stream.
B)
IODINES Iodine effluent activity is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis (at least weekly) of charcoal cartridges sampled from an isokinetic stack sample stream.
C)
PARTICULATES Activity released from the main stack is determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis (at least weekly) of particulate filters sampled from an isokinetic sample stream and composite analysis of the filters for non-gamma emitters.
D)
TRITIUM Tritium effluent activity is measured by liquid scintillation or gas proportionar' counting of monthly samples taken with an air sparging/water trap apparatus. Tritium effluent activicy is measured during purge and weekly when fuel is offloaded until stable tritium release rates are demonstrated.
E)
EMERGENCY CONDENSER VENT EFFLUENTS The effluent curie quantities are estimated based on the isotopic distribution in the Condensate Storage Tank water and the Emergency Condenser shell water.
Actual isotopic concentrations are found via gamma spectroscopy. Initial release rates of Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55 are estimated by applying scaling factors to release rates of gamma emitters and actual release rates are determined from post offsite analysis results. The activity of fission and activation gases released due to tube leaks is based.on reactor steam leak rates using offgas isotopic analyses.
F)
LIQUID EFFLUENTS Isotopic contents of liquid effluents are determined by isotopic analysis of a representative sample of each batch and composite analysis of non-gamma emitters. Tritium activity is estimated on the most recent analysis of the Condensate Storage Tank water. Initial release rates of Sr-89, Sr-90, and Fe-55 are estimated by applying scaling factors to release rates of gamma emitters and actual release rates are determined from post offsite analysis results.
G)
SOLID EFFLUENTS Isotopic *contents of waste shipments are determined by gamma spectroscopy ;:inalysis of a representative sample of each batch. Scaling factors established from primary composite sample analyses conducted off-site are applied, where appropriate, to find estimated concentration of non-gamma emitters. For low activity trash shipments, curie content is estimated by dose rate measurement and application of appropriate scaling factors.
H)
C-14 The production of C-14 and the effluent dose consequences are estimates based on EPRI methodology provided in EPRI Report 1021106, Estimation ofCarbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents, December 2010 and NUREG-0016, Calculation of Releases of Radioactive Materials in Gaseous and Liquid Effluents for Boiling Water Reactors (BWR-GALE Code).

N/A I Ci In August 2012, tritium was identified in ground water outside Unit 1. Subsequent investigations determined the source of tritium was Emergency Condenser Vent discharges (during periodic testing, as well as past events). Per the ODCM, and through station procedures, the gaseous and liquid effluent releases to the environment via the Emergency Condenser pathway are analyzed and reported in the monthly effluent releases and reported annually in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report (RERR).
As a result of this discovery, the Unit 1 ODCM was revised (Revision 34) to require composite samples of discharges from the Reactor Building Perimeter Drain be collected and analyzed, and total curies reported in the RERR. Because this activity has been accounted for in previous RERRs, it is to be reported as a separate item, and not included in the liquid releases (Attachment 5).
Since 2003, the Emergency Condensers have been actuated 7 times. These are identified in the 2003, 2004, 2009, 201 O and 2013 RERRs. The perimeter drain pumps were out of service between 2008 and 2012. Releases prior to that are assumed to have been dicharged to the storm drains while the pumps were functional. During the first quarter of 2015, Tritium was detected in the Perimeter Drain discharge at 2.53E-06 µCi/ml resulting in 0.023 Ci of tritium being release. No tritium was detected in the second, third or fourth quarters of 2015. No other isotopes were identified.

OF NON-FUNCTIONAL MONITORS Monitor Dates Monitor was Cause and Corrective Actions Non-Functional Liquid Radwaste January 1, 2015 to These monitors were intentionally allowed to exceed their quarterly Discharge Monitors December 31, 2015 functional test and annual calibration frequency, as no discharges 11and12 are planned or expected. This condition is allowed as long as blank flanges are installed in the discharge line, precluding any unmonitored discharge. No liquid waste discharges were performed during 2015. This non-functionality is tracked in Equipment Status Log (ESL) 2006-0192.

Unit 2 Reporting Period: January - December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES INSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Introduction An assessment of the radiation dose potentially received by a Member of the Public due to their activities inside the site boundary from Nine Mile Point Unit I (NMPI) liquid and gaseous effluents has been conducted for the period January through December 2015.
This assessment considers the maximum exposed individual and the various exposure pathways resulting from liquid and gaseous effluents to identify the maximum dose received by a Member of the Public during their activities within the site boundary.
Prior to September 11, 2001, the public had access to the Energy Information Center for purposes of observing the educational displays or for picnicking and associated activities. Fishing also occurred near the shoreline adjacent to the Nine Mile Point (NMP) site. Fishing near the shoreline adjacent to the NMP site was the onsite activity that resulted in the potential maximum dose received by a Member of the Public. Following September 11, 2001 public access to the Energy Information Center has been restricted and fishing by Members of the Public at locations on site is also prohibited. Although fishing was not conducted during 2015, the annual dose to a hypothetical fisherman was still evaluated to provide continuity of data for the location.
Dose Pathways Dose pathways considered for this evaluation included direct radiation, inhalation and external ground (shoreline sediment or soil doses). Other pathways, such as ingestion pathways, are not considered because they are either not applicable, insignificant, or are considered as part of the evaluation of the total dose to a member of the public located off-site. In addition, only releases from the NMPI stack and emergency condenser vent were evaluated for the inhalation pathway. Dose due to aquatic pathways such as liquid effluents is not applicable since swimming is prohibited at the NMP site.
Dose to a hypothetical fisherman is received through the following pathways while standing on the shoreline fishing:
External ground pathway; this dose is received from plant related radionuclides detected in the shoreline sediment.
Inhalation pathway; this dose is received through inhalation of gaseous effluents released from the NMPI Stack and Emergency Condenser Vent.
Direct radiation pathway; dose resulting from the operation ofNMPl, Nine Mile Point Unit 2 (NMP2) and the James A. Fitzpatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP) Facilities..
Methodologies for Determining Dose for Applicable Pathways External Ground (Shoreline Sediment) Pathway Dose from the external ground (shoreline sediment) is based on the methodology in the NMPl Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. For this evaluation it is assumed that the hypothetical maximum exposed individual fished from the shoreline at all times.

The total whole body dose and maximum organ dose received by the hypothetical maximum exposed fisherman is presented in Table 1, Exposure Pathway Annual Dose.
Direct Radiation Pathway The direct radiation pathway is evaluated in accordance with the methodology found in the NMPl ODCM. This pathway considers four components: direct radiation from the generating facilities, direct radiation from any possible overhead plume, direct radiation from ground deposition and direct radiation from plume submersion.
The direct radiation pathway is evaluated by the use of high sensitivity environmental Thermoluminescent Dosimeters (TLDs). Since fishing activities occur between April 1 and December 31, TLD data for the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2015 from TLDs placed in the general area where fishing once occurred were used to determine an average dose to the hypothetical maximum exposed fisherman from direct radiation. The following is a summary of the average dose rate and assumed time spent on site used to determine the total dose received:

Unit 2 Reporting Period: January-December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Introduction An assessment of radiation doses potentially received by the likely most exposed Member of the Public located beyond the site boundary was conducted for the period January through December 2015 for comparison against the 40 CPR 190 annual dose limits.
The intent of 40 CPR 190 requires that the effluents of Nine Mile Point Unit 1 (NMPl), as well as other nearby uranium fuel cycle facilities, be considered. In this case, the effluents of NMPl, Nine Mile Point Unit 2 (NMP2) and the James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant (JAFNPP) facilities must be considered.
40 CPR 190 requires the annual radiation dose received by Members of the Public in the general environment, as a result of plant operations, be limited to:
< 25 mRem whole body
< 25 mRem any organ (except thyroid)
< 75 mRem thyroid This evaluation compares doses resulting from liquid and gaseous effluents and direct radiation originating from the site as a result of the operation of the NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP nuclear facilities.
Dose Pathways Dose pathways considered for this*evaluation included doses resulting from liquid effluents, gaseous effluents and direct radiation from all nuclear operating facilities located on the Nine Mile Point site.
Dose to the likely most exposed Member of the Public, outside the site boundary, is received through the following pathways:
Fish consumption pathway; this dose is received from plant radionuclides that have concentrated in fish that is consumed by a Member of the Public.
Vegetation consumption pathway; this dose is received from plant radionuclides that have concentrated in vegetation that is consumed by a Member of the Public.
Shoreline Sediment; this dose is received as a result of an individual's exposure to plant radionuclides in the shoreline sediment, which is used as a recreational area.
Deposition, Inhalation and Ingestion pathways resulting from gaseous effluents; this dose is received through exposure to gaseous effluents released from NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP operating facilities.
Direct Radiation pathway; radiation dose resulting from the operation ofNMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP facilities (including the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installations (ISFSI)).
Methodologies for Determining Dose for Applicable Pathways Fish Consumption Dose received as a result of fish consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose for 2015 is calculated from actual analysis results of environmental fish samples taken near the site discharge points. For this evaluation it is assumed that the most likely exposed Member of the Public consumes fish taken near the site discharge points.
No radionuclides were detected in fish samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore, no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.

Unit 2 Reporting Period: January - December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Vegetation Consumption Dose received as a result of vegetation consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose for 2015 is calculated from actual analysis results of environlliental vegetation samples taken near the most exposed Member of the Public.
No radionuclides were detected in vegetation samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore, no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
For estimating C-14, dose received as a result of vegetation consumption is based on the methodology specified in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. The estimated concentration of C-14 in vegetation is based on the estimated concentration of C-14 in plant gaseous effluents.
Shoreline Sediment Dose received from shoreline sediment is based on the methodology in the NMPl ODCM as adapted from Regulatory Guide 1.109. For this evaluation it is assumed that the most likely exposed Member of the Public spends 67 hour7.75463e-4 days <br />0.0186 hours <br />1.107804e-4 weeks <br />2.54935e-5 months <br />s/year along the shoreline for recreational purposes.
No radionuclides were detected in shoreline sediment samples collected and analyzed during 2015; therefore no dose was received by the whole body and organs of the likely most exposed Member of the Public during 2015.
Dose Pathways Resulting From Gaseous Effluents Dose received by the likely most exposed Member of the Public due to gaseous effluents is calculated in accordance with the methodology provided in the NMPl ODCM, NMP2 ODCM, and the JAFNPP ODCM. These calculations consider deposition, inhalation and ingestion pathways. The total sum of doses resulting from gaseous effluents from NMPl, NMP2 and JAFNPP during 2015 provides a total dose to the whole body and maximum organ dose for this pathway.
Carbon-14 Dose Pathways Resulting from Gaseous Effluents The Carbon-14 (C-14) effluent source terms are used to estimate radiological doses from C-14 in site gaseous waste effluents. These estimates were generated in order to meet the NRC requirement to incorporate C-14 in nuclear power plant 2015 Annual Radiological Effluent Release Reports (ARERRs). The C-14 production and effluent source term estimates were based on EPRI methodology provided in EPRI Report 1021106, Estimation of Carbon-14 in Nuclear Power Piant Gaseous Effluents, December 2010. The following metho.dology was used in estimating C-14 gaseous release activity and dose components for the 2015 ARERR.
EPRI methodology for estimating C-14 production rates in Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs):
For BWRs, EPRI Report 1021106 summarized the distribution of C-14 in release pathways as follows: gaseous 95% to 99%, liquid <0.5% and solid 1 % to 5%. The report also states that -95% of C-14 in BWR gaseous waste effluents exists in the carbon dioxide form, which contributes to population dose via photosynthesis uptake in the food consumption cycle.

Unit 2 Reporting Period: January - December 2015 DOSES TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC DUE TO THEIR ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY Direct Radiation Pathway Dose as a result of direct gamma radiation from the site, encompasses doses from direct "shine" from the generating facilities, direct radiation from any overhead gaseous plumes, plume submersion, and ground deposition. This total dose is measured by environmental TLDs. The critical location is based on the closest year-round residence from the generating facilities as well as the closest residence in the critical downwind sector in order to evaluate both direct radiation from the generating facilities and gaseous plumes as determined by the local meteorology. During 2015, the closest residence and the critical downwind residence are at the same location.
