I.
Summary During normal operations of a nuclear power generating station there are permitted releases of small amounts of radioactive material to the environment. To monitor and determine the effects of these releases a Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) has been established around the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SSES). The results of the REMP are published annually, providing a summary and interpretation of the data collected.
Applied Ecoscience, Inc. was responsible for the collection of environmental samples during 2022. Teledyne Brown Engineering (TBE) was responsible for the analysis of environmental samples during 2022. The results are discussed in this report. Landauer provided the dosimetry services for SSES during 2022.
This Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report (AREOR) conducted for SSES covers the period January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022. During that time period, 1304 analyses were performed on 1124 samples.
Historically, Tritium (H-3) has been the only man-made radionuclide detected in the environment by the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SSES)
Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) that is attributable to station operations.
Based on data from the 2022 Radioactive Effluent Monitoring and Control program, approximately 40 Curies of H-3 were discharged in liquid radwaste releases to the Susquehanna River and approximately 68 Curies of H-3 were discharged from the station in airborne effluent releases. Sampling of the cooling tower blowdown line was discontinued in 2022 since the cooling tower blowdown line is a subsurface pipe and is not a true REMP surface water sample location. H-3 was not identified in any REMP surface water samples taken from the Susquehanna River during 2022. The 2022 average dilution factor for the Susquehanna River was 593, based on the annual average river flow of 6.52E+06 gpm and the annual average cooling tower blowdown flow of 1.10E+04 gpm.
H-3 was identified above analysis detection levels in precipitation samples taken on-site during 2022. Precipitation is analyzed to assess the impact of airborne effluent H-3 on groundwater activities.
H-3 was positively identified in one on-site groundwater sample (3rd quarter, monitoring well location 4S8) during 2022 at 370 pCi/liter. Assuming a Member of the Public was consuming the water from the referenced onsite monitoring well, the theoretical dose to the total body and maximum organ using the H-3 concentration of 370 pCi/liter and Regulatory Guide 1.109 methodology was determined to illustrate the effect. The calculated dose would be <0.01 mrem to the child total body and <0.01 mrem to the child liver (critical age group/organ) which is well below SSES Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) limits and applicable regulatory limits.
The REMP Sample Equipment Operability and year-to-year trend comparison is located in Appendix E, Table E-1.
The REMP was conducted in accordance with the SSES Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) and the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) which are based on the design objectives in 10CFR Part 50, Appendix I, Sections IV.B.2, IV.B.3 and IV.C. The Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) values required by the TRM and SSES ODCM were achieved for the 2022 reporting period. The REMP objectives were also met during this period. The concentration of radioactive material in the environment that could be attributable to SSES operations was only a small fraction of the concentration of naturally occurring and man-made radioactivity. Since these results were comparable to the results obtained during the preoperational phase of the program and combined with historical results collected since commercial operation, it can be concluded that the levels and fluctuations were as expected and that the operation of the SSES had no significant radiological impact on the environment. Additionally, the REMP sample results for 2022 verify the adequacy of the SSES radioactive effluent control systems.
Samples of air particulates, air iodine, milk, groundwater, drinking water, vegetation, surface water, fish and sediment were collected and analyzed.
External radiation dose measurements were also made in the vicinity of SSES using passive dosimeters.
Air particulate samples were analyzed for concentrations of gross beta weekly and gamma emitting nuclides quarterly. Gross beta and cosmogenically produced beryllium-7 (Be-7) were detected at levels consistent with those detected in previous years. No fission or activation products were detected.
Air charcoal cartridge samples were analyzed for iodine-131 (I-131). All results were less than the minimum detectable concentration.
Environmental gamma radiation measurements were performed quarterly using optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters (OSLD). The levels of radiation detected were consistent with those observed in previous years.
Cow milk samples were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides. High sensitivity I-131 analyses were performed on cow milk samples. All I-131 results were below the minimum detectable concentration. Naturally occurring potassium-40 (K-40) was detected at levels consistent with those detected in previous years. No fission or activation products were detected.
Groundwater samples were analyzed for concentrations of tritium and gamma emitting nuclides. Tritium activities were detected at levels consistent with those detected in previous years. No fission or activation products were detected.
Drinking water samples were analyzed for concentrations of tritium, gross beta and gamma emitting nuclides. Gross beta activities detected were consistent with those detected in previous years. No fission or activation products were detected.
Food product (fruits, vegetables and broadleaf vegetation) samples were analyzed for concentrations of gamma emitting nuclides. Naturally occurring Be-7 and K-40 were detected at levels consistent with those detected in previous years. No fission or activation products were detected.
Surface water samples were analyzed for concentrations of tritium and gamma emitting nuclides. Tritium activities detected were consistent with those detected in previous years. No fission or activation products were detected.
Fish and shoreline sediment samples were analyzed for concentrations of gamma emitting nuclides. Naturally occurring K-40 was detected at levels consistent with those detected in previous years. Naturally occurring radium-226 (Ra-226), actinium-228 (Ac-228), and thorium-228 (Th-228) were detected in shoreline sediment at levels consistent with results in previous years. No fission or activation products were detected in fish or sediment samples.

The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program The Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SSES) is a nuclear electrical generating station located approximately 5 miles northeast of Berwick, in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. The station consists of two boiling-water reactor generating units. The SSES is located on approximately a 1,087-acre tract just west of the Susquehanna River. The station was constructed in the 1970s, with Unit 1 beginning commercial operation on June 8, 1983, and Unit 2 beginning commercial operation on February 12, 1985. Units 1 and 2 each generate a net 1,350 megawatts (MWe), for a total station output of 2,700 MWe.
In the 4th quarter of 2021, Susquehanna Nuclear, LLC land ownership was reduced due to land transfers to other Talen Energy entities. Impacts to the SSES REMP resulting from the above referenced land ownership changes are being implemented as appropriate by SSES Chemistry personnel.
REMP changes resulting from the land transfers shall be documented in future Radiological Environmental Operating Reports.
In total Susquehanna Nuclear, LLC presently owns 1,152 acres of land.
Generally, this land is characterized by open deciduous woodlands interspersed with grasslands. The area around the site is primarily rural, consisting predominately of forest and agricultural lands.
Approximately 1,087 acres of land is jointly owned between Susquehanna Nuclear, LLC (90%) and Allegheny Electric Cooperative (10%). The land use includes generation and associated maintenance facilities, laydown areas, parking lots, roads, a nature preserve (the Susquehanna Riverlands), and agricultural leases to local farmers.
To the north of the station along the Susquehanna River, Susquehanna Nuclear, LLC owns 100% of the 65-acre Gould Island.
More specific information on the demography, hydrology, meteorology, and land use characteristics of the area in the vicinity of the SSES can be found in the Environmental Report [Reference 1], the Final Safety Analysis Report
[Reference 2] and the Final Environmental Statement [Reference 3] for the SSES.
The SSES has maintained a Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) since April 1972, prior to construction of both units and ten years prior to the initial operation of Unit 1 in September 1982. The purpose of the preoperational REMP (April,1972 to September 1982) was to establish a baseline for radioactivity in the local environment that could be compared with the radioactivity levels observed in various environmental media throughout the operational lifetime of the SSES. This comparison facilitates assessments of the radiological impact of the SSES operation.
The REMP supplements the results of the radioactive effluent-monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation in the environment are not higher than expected based on the effluent measurements and modeling of the environment in the vicinity of the SSES.
The pathways through which radiation or radioactive material may reach the public from nuclear power plants are direct exposure from the station, atmospheric, terrestrial, and aquatic pathways. (Figure 1 depicts these pathways)
Figure 1 - Radiation Pathways Depostlon to Grocnd Drinki,w Slrlace Waterer Groundw*ter 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 manmade. 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. 310 mrem comes from natural sources and 310 from man-made sources. Figure 2 shows what the typical sources of radiation in the U.S.:

Full report Is awilable on the NCRP website atv1111V1,NCRPonline,orc Radioanalytical data from samples collected under the REMP were compared with results from the preoperational phase and historical results during operations. Differences between these periods were examined statistically to determine the effects of station operations. This report presents the results from January 1 through December 31, 2022, for the SSES Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP).
A.
Objectives of the Operational REMP The objectives of the Operational REMP are to:
- 1.
Document compliance with SSES REMP Technical Requirements and radiological environmental surveillances.
- 2.
Verify proper implementation of SSES radiological effluent controls.
- 3.
Identify, measure and evaluate trends of radionuclide concentrations in environmental pathways near SSES.
- 4.
Assess impact of SSES Effluents on the Environment and the public.
- 5.
Verify that SSES operations have no detrimental effects on the health and safety of the public or on the environment.
B.
Implementation of the Objectives
- 1.
In order to meet the objectives, an operational REMP was developed. Samples of various media were selected for monitoring due to the radiological dose impact to humans and other organisms. The selection of samples was based on:
(a)
Established critical pathways for the transfer of radionuclides through the environment to man, and (b)
Experience gained during the preoperational phase.
Sampling locations were determined based on local meteorology, Susquehanna River hydrology, local demography, and land uses.
- 2.
Sampling locations were divided into two classes, indicator and control. Indicator locations were sited where it is expected that radiation and radioactive material that might originate from the station would be detectable. Control locations were selected in areas where they would be unaffected by station operations (i.e. Susquehanna River upstream from the station, >10 miles from the station in least prevalent wind directions). Fluctuations in the levels of radionuclides and direct radiation at indicator locations were evaluated with respect to analogous fluctuations at control locations. Indicator and control location data were also evaluated relative to preoperational data.
- 3.
Appendix A, Program Summary, describes and summarizes the analytical results in accordance with the SSES Technical Specifications.
- 4.
Appendix B, Sample Designation and Locations, describes the coding system which identifies sample type and location. Table B-1 lists the location codes, locations, latitude, longitude, and the types of samples collected at each location. Table B-2 contains sample medium, analysis and sampling details.

Program Description A.
Data Interpretation Results of analyses are grouped according to sample type and presented in Appendix C, Data Tables. All results above the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) are at a confidence level of +/- 2 sigma. This represents the range of values into which 95% of repeated analyses of the same sample should fall. As defined in U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Regulatory Guide 4.8, LLD 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." LLD is normally calculated as 4.66 times the standard deviation of the background counting rate, or of the blank sample count, as appropriate, divided by counting efficiency, sample size, 2.22 (dpm per picocurie), the radiochemical yield when applicable, the radioactive decay constant and the elapsed time between sample collection and time of counting. LLD represents the capability of the measurement system.
The Minimum Detectable Concentration (MDC) is defined as the smallest concentration of radioactive material that can be detected at a given confidence level. The MDC differs from the LLD in that the MDC takes into consideration the interference caused by the presence of other nuclides while the LLD does not. MDC is an indicator of the performance of the measurement system. The MDC is set to be below the LLD.
Summaries of the radionuclide average picocurie activities and ranges are included in Table A. If a radionuclide was not detected, zero was used for that isotope in dose calculations and the activity is listed as
<MDC (less than the minimum detectable concentration) in Table A.
<MDC indicates that no activity was positively detected in any sample when samples were analyzed with techniques which achieved the required Lower Limits of Detection (LLD). The following are typical measurement laboratory MDCs for airborne and waterborne REMP samples.
Airborne REMP Typical MDCs Radionuclide MDC (pCi/cu.m.)
Mn-54 1.2 E-03 Fe-59 6.9 E-03 Co-58 1.8 E-03 Co-60 1.2 E-03 Zn-65 2.9 E-03 Cs-134 1.1 E-03 Cs-137 1.0 E-03 I-131 2.0 E-01 Waterborne REMP Typical MDCs Radionuclide MDC (pCi/L.)
H-3 (DIST) 2.5 E+02 Mn-54 3.8 E+00 Fe-59 1.1 E+01 Co-58 3.9 E+00 Co-60 4.1 E+00 Zn-65 7.8 E+00 Cs-134 3.7 E+00 Cs-137 4.0 E+00 I-131 9.4 E+00 H-3 2.5 E+02 Gross Beta 1.9 E+00 The grouped data were averaged and standard deviations calculated.
Thus, the +/- 2 sigma of the averaged data represent sample and not analytical variability. For reporting and calculation of averages, any result occurring at or below the LLD is considered to be at the LLD level.

Quality Assurance Program Teledyne Brown Engineering The quality of the results obtained by TBE is ensured by the implementation of the Quality Assurance Program as described in the Teledyne Brown Engineering Quality Assurance Manual and the Teledyne Brown Engineering Procedure Manual.
E.
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 TBEs result and Analytics known value. Since flag values are not assigned by Analytics, TBE evaluates the reported ratios based on internal QC requirements based on the DOE MAPEP criteria.
- 2. ERA Evaluation Criteria ERAs evaluation report provides an acceptance range for control and warning limits with associated flag values. ERAs acceptance limits are established per the USEPA, National Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Conference (NELAC), state-specific Performance Testing (PT) program requirements or ERAs 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 MAPEPs 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.
Teledyne Brown Engineering For the TBE laboratory, 142 out of 150 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 TBE Corrective Action Program. NOTE: One analysis (soil for Tc-99) that did not meet acceptance criteria was performed for TBE information and is not on the list of required ICP analyses. A summary is found below:
- 1.
The Analytics March 2022 AP Ce-141 result was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value for Ce-141 was 60.9 pCi and the known result was 42.0 pCi/L (1.45 ratio of reported result vs. known; TBEs internal acceptance range is 0.70 -
1.30). This sample was used as the workgroup duplicate with a result of 45.7 (109% of known) and was also counted on a different detector with a result of 50.9 (121% of known). This was TBEs first failure for AP Ce-141. (NCR 22-04)
- 2.
The MAPEP February 2022 Urine U-234 & U-238 results were evaluated as Not Acceptable. TBEs reported values of 0.142 and 0.0254 were above the known upper ranges of 0.0096 and 0.0134 respectively for U-234 and U-238. These spiked values were below TBEs typical MDC for urine client samples. The samples were re-prepped using a larger sample aliquot and counted for 60 hours6.944444e-4 days <br />0.0167 hours <br />9.920635e-5 weeks <br />2.283e-5 months <br /> as opposed to 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br />. The recount results were 0.00732 for U-234 and 0.0119 for U-238 (both within acceptable range). MAPEP urine samples will be flagged to use a larger sample aliquot and counting time than typical client samples. MAPEP did not include any urine cross-check samples in August. (NCR 22-05)
- 3.
The ERA MRAD September 2022 AP Pu-238 was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value was 38.8 pCi and the known result was 29.9 (acceptance range 22.6 - 36.7). The AP filter was cut in half prior to digestion (shared with Fe-55) but should have been complete digested together and aliquotted afterwards like typical client samples. This is the first failure for AP Pu-238. (NCR 22-19)
- 4.
The ERA October 2022 water Uranium result was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value was 10.54 pCi/L and the known was 8.53 (acceptance range 6.60 - 9.88) or 124% of the known (acceptable for TBE QC). The 2-sigma error was 3.2, placing the reported result well within the acceptable range.
This sample was used as the workgroup duplicate with a result of 8.2 +/- 2.9 pCi/L (also within the acceptable range). All other QA was reviewed with no anomalies. (NCR 22-20)
- 5.
The Analytics AP Co-60 result was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value was 207 pCi and the known was 147 (141% of the known). TBEs internal QC acceptance is 70 - 130%. All QA was reviewed with no anomalies. This sample was used as the workgroup duplicate and counted on a different detector with a result of 167 pCi (114% of the known).
This is the first failure for AP Co average result ratio compared to the known is 109%. (NCR 22-21)
- 6.
The MAPEP August 2022 water Tc-99 result was evaluated as Not Acceptable. The reported value was 1.86 +/- 0.414 Bq/L for this false positive test. The evaluation of the submitted result to the 3 times the uncertainty indicated a slight positive.
This sample was used as the workgroup duplicate with a result of 0.88 +/- 0.374 Bq/L. All QC was reviewed, and no anomalies found. This is the first unacceptable since the resumption of reporting water Tc-99 for the 3rd quarter of 2020. TBE to known ratios have ranged from 94-109% during this time. (NCR 22-
- 22)
The Inter-Laboratory Comparison Program provides evidence of in control counting systems and methods, and that the laboratories are producing accurate and reliable data.
IV.
Results and Discussion The analytical results of the 2022 REMP samples are divided into categories based on exposure pathways: atmospheric, direct radiation, terrestrial, and aquatic. The analytical results for the 2022 REMP are summarized in Appendix A, Program Summary. The data for individual samples are presented in Appendix C, Data Tables. The data are compared to the formal preoperational environmental monitoring program data (April 1972 to September 1982) and to data during operations. The data collected demonstrates that the SSES REMP was conducted in compliance with the TRM and the SSES ODCM.
A.
Atmospheric Atmospheric REMP sampling included the collection of air particulates, air iodine and direct radiation samples.
- 1.
Air Particulates Air particulate samples were collected weekly at six indicator locations (3S2, 9B1, 10S3, 12E1, 12S1 and 13S6) and one control locations (8G1). Each of the samples collected for the year were analyzed for gross beta. Quarterly composites of the weekly samples from each location were analyzed for specific gamma emitters.
Gross Beta Gross beta activity was detected in 311 of 311 of the indicator location samples at concentrations ranging from 6 to 49 E-3 pCi/m3 with an average concentration of 15 E-3 pCi/m3, and in 52 of 52 of the control location samples at concentrations ranging from 6 to 27 E-3 pCi/m3 with an average of 15 E-3 pCi/m3. The maximum preoperational level detected was 102 E-3 pCi/m3 with an average concentration of 62 E-3 pCi/m3.
(Table C-1, Appendix C); Historical levels of gross beta are shown in Figure C-1. Results for gross beta analysis from 1974 to current year are plotted.
Gamma Spectrometry Gamma spectrometry was performed on each of the 28 quarterly composite samples. Beryllium-7, attributed to cosmic ray activity in the atmosphere, was detected in all 24 indicator location composites at concentrations ranging from 63 E-3 to 137 E-3 pCi/m3 with an average concentration of 105 E-3 pCi/m3, and in the four control location composites ranging in concentration from 69 to 129 E-3 pCi/m3 with an average concentration of 104 E-3 pCi/m3.
The maximum preoperational level detected was 85 E-3 pCi/m3 with an average concentration of 74 E-3 pCi/m3. (Table C-2, Appendix C)

Iodine-131 Iodine-131 was not detected in any indicator location samples or control location samples. Preoperational data is not available for comparison. (Table C-3, Appendix C)
B.
Direct Radiation Ambient radiation levels in the environs were measured at each monitoring location with a pair of optically stimulated luminescent dosimeters (OSLD) composed of aluminum oxide crystals supplied and processed by Landauer. The Landauer OSLD is designed to meet the ANSI N545 Standard and ANSI/HPS Standard N13.37-2014.
Packets containing OSLDs for quarterly exposure were placed in the owner-controlled area and around the site at various distances and in each land-based meteorological sector. Emphasis was placed on special interest areas such as population centers, nearby residences, and schools.
A total of 57 locations were monitored for direct radiation during 2022, including 32 site boundary locations, 14 outer distant locations, six special interest locations and five control locations.
Environmental monitoring of ambient radiation levels began prior to the commencement of SSES operation. The preoperational monitoring period data used in the calculation of dose attributable the SSES operation is from 1980-1981. The availability of preoperational direct radiation monitoring data and data for control direct radiation monitoring locations provides a basis for distinguishing between the portions of dose received from exposure to sources of natural radiation and that which might have been from man-made sources of radiation.
Pre-operational and operational data are compared for the purpose of determining if dosimeter data may indicate a dose contribution from SSES operation. Ratios of doses for specific indicator locations to the average of the doses for control locations from operational periods are compared to their counterparts from the preoperational period.
Comparison of these ratios is performed in lieu of comparing the actual operational and preoperational doses. All indicator-to-control-average dose ratios for operational periods are compared to expected ranges from 1980-81 data for indicator-to-control-average dose ratios from the same locations. If preoperational data does not exist for the location of interest, indicator-to-control-average dose ratios for operational periods are compared to data for control locations monitored during 1980-81. The purpose for these comparisons is to flag possible SSES direct radiation dose contributions and to provide input, if appropriate, for the calculation of SSES direct radiation dose contributions.
Additional details on the statistical method used for determination of direct radiation dose to a member of the public due to SSES operation (based on environmental dosimeter data) can be found in Engineering Calculation EC-ENVR-1012, Interpretation of Environmental Direct Radiation Monitoring Results - Estimation of Direct Radiation Dose to Members of the Public Attributable to SSES Fuel Cycle Operations Rev. 2.
The indicator locations annual average dose rate was 16.3 milliroentgen per standard quarter. The annual average dose rate for the control locations was 14.5 milliroentgen per standard quarter. The preoperational average for the quarterly direct radiation readings was 17.6 milliroentgen per standard quarter.
In 2022, the maximum direct radiation dose to a member of the public calculated using the methodology in EC-ENVR-1012 was 0.796 mrem.
The results of the direct radiation measurements for 2022 confirmed that the radiation levels in the vicinity of the SSES were similar to previous years. (Table C-4, Appendix C); Figure C Ambient Radiation Levels Based on Environmental Dosimetry Data from 1973 to current year are plotted as quarterly averages.

- 2. Groundwater An expanded groundwater monitoring network was initiated in 2006 for the SSES as part of a site-wide hydrogeological investigation in accordance with the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) Groundwater Protection Initiative (GPI). The additional groundwater monitoring wells are sampled as part of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) to regularly assess groundwater quality and provide early detection of any inadvertent leaks or spills of radioactive materials that could reach groundwater. Groundwater is sampled quarterly and analyzed for H-3 and gamma activity.
Additionally, precipitation sampling was initiated in 2007 and analyzed for H-3 activity to assess the influence of station airborne H-3 emissions on groundwater H-3 activities.
Precipitation washout monitoring data is not used in dose calculations; however, the data does give a gross indication of H-3 which makes its way into surface water and soil where it eventually seeps into shallow groundwater. The annual average H-3 concentrations in precipitation, groundwater monitoring wells and surface water are summarized in Table C-7 and graphically depicted in Figure C Annual Average Tritium Activity (pCi/L) in Precipitation and Surface Water Versus Groundwater.
Groundwater samples were collected quarterly at 10 indicator locations (1S3, 1S4, 4S8, 4S9, 8S4, 7S10, 2S8, 6S11A, 6S12 and 7S11) and one control station (13S7). Each sample was analyzed for H-3 and gamma emitters.

Conclusions The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for SSES was conducted during 2022 in accordance with the SSES TRM and ODCM. The LLD values required by the TRM and ODCM were achieved for this reporting period (See Appendix A and Appendix C). The objectives of the program were also met during this period. The data collected assists in demonstrating that SSES was operated in compliance with TRM and ODCM requirements.
The concentration of radioactive material in the environment that could be attributable to SSES operations was only a small fraction of the concentration of naturally occurring and man-made radioactivity. Since these results were comparable to the results obtained during the preoperational phase of the program, which ran from 1972 to 1982, and with results collected since commercial operation, it is concluded that operation of the SSES had no significant radiological impact on the health and safety of the public or the environment.
From the results obtained, it can be concluded that the levels and fluctuations of radioactivity in environmental samples were as expected for the environment surrounding the SSES.

APPENDIX B SAMPLE DESIGNATION AND LOCATIONS B-1
SAMPLE DESIGNATION All distances from the SSES to monitoring locations are measured from the standby gas treatment vent at 44200/N34117 (Pa. Grid System). The location codes are based on both distance and direction from the SSES. The letters in the location codes indicate if the monitoring locations are on site (within the site boundary) or, if they are not on site, the approximate distances of the location from the SSES as described below:
S
= On site E
= 4 - 5 miles A
= < 1 mile F
= 5 - 10 miles B
= 1 - 2 miles G
= 10 - 20 miles C
= 2 - 3 miles H = > 20 miles D
= 3 - 4 miles The numbers preceding the letters in the location codes provide the direction of the monitoring locations from the SSES by indicating the sectors in which they are located. A total number of 16 sectors (numbered one through 16) equally divide an imaginary circle on a map of the SSES and its vicinity, with the SSES at the center of the circle. The middle of sector one is directed due North (N). Moving clockwise from sector one, the sector immediately adjacent to sector one is sector two, the middle of which is directed due north, north east (NNE). Continuing to move clockwise the sector number increases to 16, which is the north northwest sector (NNW).

TABLE B-1 SAMPLING LOCATIONS Specific information about the individual sampling locations are given in Table B-1. Maps B-1 through B-6 show the locations of sampling stations with respect to the Site. A Portable Global Positioning System (GPS) was used to provide the coordinates of sampling locations.

(2) A standard (std.) quarter (qtr.) is considered to be 91.25 days. Results obtained for monitoring periods of other durations are normalized by multiplying them by 91.25/x, where x is the actual duration in days of the period.
(3) Uncertainties for individual monitoring location results are two standard deviations of the elemental doses of four elements from the two dosimeters assigned to each monitoring location, representing the variability between the elemental doses of each of the four dosimeter elements.
(4) No measurement could be made at this location because the dosimeters were lost, stolen, or damaged. Refer to Appendix A of the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report for an explanation of program exceptions to REMP.
(5) Uncertainties associated with quarterly indicator and control averages are two standard deviations, representing the variability between the results of the individual monitoring locations.
