s Executive Summarv

1. Results of the 1996 Land Use Census indicated no significant movement of critical receptors since the previous annual census, and no identified locations where a calculated dose exceeded limits specified in VCSNS Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, Section 1.4.2
2. During the ninth refuel the plant was uprated to 2900 MWt (990 MWe gross).
3. During 1995 an extensive effort was under.taken to reduce the number of control / indicator locations. This project included controls to reinstate samples as needed depending upon plant operations. These new controls are reflected in the station Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The reduction begin in 1996.
4. There was no detection of radioactivity in environmental media attributed to gaseous effluent releases from VCSNS.
5. Activated corrosion products attributed to liquid effluent releases from VCSNS were detected in sediment. Radiation dose to the general public attributed to this activity is a small fraction of the observed variation in natural background radiation.
6. Detection of fission product activity in environmental media is attributed to liquid effluent releases from VCSNS and residual fallout from other sources. Radiation dose to the general public attributed to this activity is'a small fraction of the observed variation in natural background.
    -7. Results of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program substantiate the continuing adequacy of source control at VCSNS and conformance of station operation to 10 CFR 50, Appendix I design goals.

I INTRODUCTION l Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Station (VCSNS) utilizes a pressurized water reactor rated at 2900 MWt (990 MWe gross). The station is located adjacent to the Monticello Reservoir near Jenkinsville, South Carolina and approximately 26 miles northwest of Columbia. VCSNS achieved initial criticality on October 22,1982, reached 50% power December 12,1982 and 100% power June 10, 1983 following steam generator feedwater modifications. Steam generators were replaced in the fall of 1994. During the ninth refuel the plant was uprated to 2900 MWt (990 MWe gross). VCSNS is currently operating in its tenth fuel cycle. VCSNS is operating in conjunction with the adjacent Fairfield Pump Storage Facility (FPSF) which consists of eight reversible pump-turbine units of 60 MWe capacity each. During periods of off-peak power demand, base load generating capacity is used to pump water from Parr Reservoir to Monticello Reservoir. Monticello 1 Reservoir has a surface area of approximately 6800 acres and lies about 150 feet above Parr Reservoir whose full pool area is approximately 4400 acres. The pump-turbine units operate in the generating mode to meet peak system loads while Monticello Reservoir also provides condenser cooling water for VCSNS. Cooling water intake and discharge structures are separated by a jetty to ensure adequate circulation within the reservoir. VCSNS is located in Fairfield County which, along with Newberry County, makes up the principle area within a 10 mile radius of the plant. This area is mainly forest with only about 30% devoted to small farming activities principally producing small grains, feed crops and beef cattle. Significant portions of Lexington and Richland Counties are encompassed within the 20 mile radius of the plant and exhibit similar agricultural activities. Columbia, the state capital, is the only large city within the 50 mile radius of the plant. Small agricultural concerns are predominant, but make up less than 50% of the land area. The main industrial activity is concentrated around Columbia and is generally greater than 20 miles from the VCSNS. Liquid effluents from VCSNS are released into the Monticello/Parr Reservoirs at  ! two discharge points: the Circulating Water Discharge Canal (CWDC) and the FPSF Penstocks. Unprocessed steam generator blowdown and nonnuclear drains are released to the CWDC. Effluent from the liquid waste processing system and processed steam generator blowdown are released through the penstocks. Radioactive gaseous effluents from VCSNS are released from three points: the Main Plant Vent, the Reactor Building Purge Exhaust and the Oil incineration Facility, all considered to be ground level releases. 1

Radioactive liquid and gaseous releases from the facility and their potential influence on the surrounding biota and man are the primary concern of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program at VCSNS. This report summarizes the results of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program conducted during 1996. Data trends, control / indicator and preoperational/ operational data intercomparisons and other data interpretations are presented. 1 DESCRIPTION OF THE RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program is carried out in its entirety by South Carolina Electric and Gas Company. The program has been designed to meet the following general commitments:

1. To analyze selected samples in important anticipated pathways for the qualification and quantification of radionuclides released to the environment surrounding VCSNS.
2. To establish correlations between levels of environmental radioactivity and radioactive effluents from VCSNS operation.

The program utilizes the concepts of control / indicator and preoperational

     / operational intercomparisons in order to establish the adequacy of radioactivity source control and to realistically verify the assessment of environmental radioactivity levels   :

and subsequent radiation dose to man. During 1995 an extensive effort was under taken to reduce the number of control / indicator locations. This project included controls to reinstate samples as needed dependent upon plant operations. These new controls are reflected in the I station Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The reduction was implemented January, l 1996.

                                                                                                ]

l Sample media and analysis sensitivity requirements have been established to  ; ensure that the maximum dose pathways are monitored and sensitivities represent a I small fraction of annual release limits. Effluent dispersion characteristics, demography, ; hydrology and land use have been considered in selection of environmental sampling  ! locations. These criteria were used to establish both the preoperational and operational phases of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. Elements of the program monitor the impact of gaseous and liquid effluents released from VCSNS. Specific methods used in monitoring the pathways of these effluents which may lead to radiation exposure of the public, based on existing demography, are summarized below in Table 1. Requirements of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program are specified in the VCSNS Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). Elements of the program monitor the impact of gaseous and liquid effluents l released from VCSNS. l l i 2

Table 2 provides a list of ODCM required sampling  ! locations. Table 9 provides a list of supplemental sampling locations Maps showing radiological environmental sampling locations within a radius of approximately 5 miles l from VCSNS are presented as Figures 1-2 and 1-3. Figure 1-1 shows monitoring sites at distances greater than 10 miles from the plant. These locations indicate regional I fluctuations in background radiation levels. In addition to preoperational/ operational data intercomparisons, control indicator data intercomparisons are utilized. This is done to assess the probability that any observed abnormal measurement of radioactivity concentration is due to random or regional fluctuations rather than to a true increase in local environmental radioactivity l concentration. Environmental data is gathered through multiple types of sampling and measurements at specific locations. Several multiple sampling combinations are in use  ! around the VCSNS. For example, all air sampling locations serve as environmental dosimetry monitoring locations. At these locations, airborne plant effluents are monitored for gamma immersion dose (noble gases), in addition to air contsminants. Three of these locations have additional complementary sampling / measurement pathways for monitoring plant effluents. Sampling locations 6 (1.0 mi ESE) and 7 (1.0 mi E) have broadleaf vegetation gardere for monitoring gaseous effluent deposition and ingestion pathway in the two sectors having the highest deposition coefficients (D/Q) with real potential for exposure. Sampling location 18 (16.5 mi S) serves as a control location for direct radiation, surface water and garden monitoring. 3

.                        bottom sediment and surface water) at the two most probable affected bodies of water j                         around .the plant: Site 21, Parr Reservoir (2.7 mi SSW) and Site 23, Monticello Reservoir (0.5 mi ESE). The control location for liquid effluent comparisons is at Site 22,
                      , Neal Shoals (30.0 mi NNW) on the Broad River.                                                  1 Quality of Analytical measurements is demonstrated by participation in five
laboratory intercomparison programs. Results of the 1996 EPA Intercomparison Program are included in Table 3. Table 3a gives results of the intercomparison with an  ;
}                         independent vendor used to supplement the more limited EPA program available in

[ 1996. Results of the intercomparison program with the VCSNS count room and an outside vendor are included in Table 4. The intercomparison program with South l Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC) is outlined in l Table 5. Results are reported by SCDHEC. Results of an environmental dosimetry l q intercomparison with the NRC are shown as Table 6. Only one result showed 3 j disagreement in the 1996 data, gross alpha liquid from 3/12/96 in Table 3a The levels

tested were extremely low (10 pCi/l) and, thus hard to measure accurately. In addition, the environmental program has no requirement for gross alpha mMsurements, so there i is no impact on the environmental program. The results of each cf these five quality control checks of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring program verify the l technical credibility of analytical data generated and reported by the program.

l The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program described in Tables 8 and 9 incorporates all the elements of the VCSNS ODCM and includes numerous supplemental sampling locations. , a

LAND USE CENSUS i l  !

l Annually a land use census is performed within a 5 mile radius of VCSNS to verify the

adequacy of sample locations. In addition, the location of the maximum exposed individual (MEI) is identified. The results of the land use census performed in 1996 are included in Table 7 A verification of the maximum exposed individual location is presented in Table 7a. Identification of the highest offsite dose locations was performed by calculating a hypothetical dose based on predicted VCSNS source term (Operating License Environmental Report) and 5 year average meteorological data. Exposure pathways used in the analysis were those identified during the land use census.

During the 1996 land use census, the location and pathway presently used in the i ODCM for offsite organ dose calculations (E1.2 miles - residence / garden) was found to have a calculated dose of 2.33E+0 mrem /yr. In addition, the ODCM required environmental gardens (E 1.0 and ESE 1.1 miles) were found to have a calculated dose i of 3.71E+ 0 and 2.34E+0 mrem / year which are higher calculated doses than garden locations of all real individuals. There were no milking animals or dairy activity found within 5 miles of VCSNB. Therefore, changes to the ODCM gaseous effluent [ calculations or garden ssmple locations are not indicated. l 4 4

4 l MONITORING RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The results of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for 1996 are 1- summarized in Table 10. For comparison, preoperational data is summarized in Table j 11. During 1996, the Radiological Environmental Program attained a program - compliance rate of approximately 99%. A listing of program exceptions and their i respective causes are included in Table 12. Detailed analysis of the impact of these

omissions verified that program quality has not been affected. ,

l Airborne gross beta activity measured in air particulate samples collected at j indicator locations around VCSNS were consistent with preoperational levels and not ' i statistically different from control locations. Mean preoperational control and indicator i levels were 2.7E-2 and 2.8E-2 pCi/m , respectively. Mean indicator and control location i measurements during 1996 were 1.90E-2 and 1.97E-2 pCi/m , respectively. The I highest site specific mean activity (1.94E-2 pCi/m ) was measured at indicatcr location j no. 8 (Monticello Res. South of Rd 224). A comparison was performed between the , 1996 results and the mean for the previous operational results. No statistically significant trends were observed. The results indicate that operation of VCSNS has not resulted in detectable increases of airborne gross beta activity in the environment. i

Gamma spectroscopy measurements of air particulate samples and activated

! charcoal cartridges support the gross beta activity trend. Only natural background I activities of Be-7, Ra-226 and K-40 were detected. Minimum detectable activity (MDA)  ;

levels for Cs-134, Cs-137 and 1-131 were 2.51E-3, 2.63E-3 and 2.15E-2 pCi/m , ,

i respectively. The results support the gaseous effluent release data reported in the 1996 [ Annual Effluent and Waste. Disposal Reports for VCSNS. During 1996,1.73E-6 Cl of iodine and 6.83E-6 Cl of particulates were released.~ These releases are not discernible in atmospheric samples due to atmospheric dispersion during these releases. 3 l During the second quarter of 1996 a problem with the reading and data reduction

provided by_ an offsite vendor resulted in the loss of second quarter environmental j
dosimetry measurements. This is reflected in Table 6. Results of the NRC l environmental dosimetry measurements are shown Results were also obtained from
the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control. The results from ,

these two sources were consistent with historical averages for the locations. t Environmental dosimetry measurements during 1996 did not differ significantly from preoperational measurements. Indicator and control dosimetry measurements also showed no appreciable differences during 1996. Comparison with other operational years shows no statistically significant difference. Sampling location no. 4

(Fairfield Hydro 1.2 mi, WNW) was the indicator location showing the highest mean j exposure rate of 1.2E+1 R/hr. This value is higher than in 1995 due to the monitoring j site being moved to a higher background location, but is still consistent with the highest mean exposure rate of 1.4E+1 pR/hr measured during the preoperational period.

!{ Gaseous effluent release data reported for 1996 indicated a total of 5.9E-1 Ci of fission and activation gases released from VCSNS Radioactive gaseous effluent at this level  ! l I 5 4

J would not be expected to produce a discernible increase in direct radiation dose above  ; background levels. ' ! Gamma spectroscopy measurements of surface water samples did not indicate the presence of activated corrosion or fission products above the respective MDA's (MDA's are maintained below required LLD's). Liquid effluent release data reported for 1996 in the Semiannual Effluent and Waste Disposal Report indicated a total of 1.45E-1 Ci of measurable fission and activated corrosion product activity were released from VCSNS; a level not discernible in surface water due to dilution available during the releases and the detection limits of analytical methods used during gamma j spectroscopy analysis. There was no surface water tritium activity measured in any indicator or control , samples for 1996. The minimum detectable activity (MDA) levels for tritium measured at all indicator locations was 4.80E+2 pCiMiter. This compares to preoperational and 1982-1995 operational means of 1.4E+3 and 7.8E+2 pCiMiter, respectively. Total tritium release in liquid effluents during 1996 was reported to be 5.79E+2 Ci; a level not - usually discernible in surface water due to dilution available during the releases and the detection limitations of analytical equipment used for tritium analysis. Gamma spectroscopy measurements of ground water samples did not indicate the presence of activated corrosion or fission products above the MDA's for the respective _ radionuclides. Tritium analysis ~ did not indicate the presence of any tritium above the detectable levels. Minimum detectabic activity (MDA) levels for tritium at all indicator and control sites was 4.80E+2 pCIA. Gamma spectroscopy measurements of drinking water samples collected from - , the Jenkinsville and Columbia water supplies did not indicate the presence of activated > corrosion or fission product activity above the MDA's of the respective radioauciides. Naturally occurring radionuclides, Ra-226, Pb-214 and Bi-214, were observed in the , Jenkinsville water supply at levels above those found in surface water. These elevated activity levels were also observed in the preoperational program and are attributed to  ; several deep water wells. The supply for Jenkinsville community water is located more than 5 miles from VCSNS. The highest mean gross beta activity in drinking water was measured at site 28 (Jenkinsville) at a level of 3.20E+0 pCi/ liter, about the same as last year. There was no detected tritium in drinking water samples with a mean MDA of 4.62E+2 pCiMiter. The result compares to a preoperational mean of 7.8E+2 pCiMiter. There were no milk samples collected in 1996. This ref% cts the reduction of  ! control / indicator locations. Controls are in place where milk samples will be obtained if gaseous releases from the plant exceed 5% of quarterly organ dose limits or . radionuclides (attributed to VCSNS operations ) are detected in broadleaf vegetation, grass, or air samples at concentrations greater than required LLD's. Sampling shou'd continue for 2 months after plant releases are reduced to less than the trigger levels , and milk contamination has returned to background levels.  ! i 6 .

l Broadleaf vegetation collected from gardens at location numbers 6, 7 and 18 were the principal food products analyzed during 1996. Minimum detectable activity (MDA) levels for Cs-134, Cs-137 and 1-131 were 2.23E+1,2.73E+1 and 2.57+1 pCi/kg, respectively. The minimum detactable activity (MDA) level concentrations are lower than the 3.6E+1 value observed in the preoperational period. 4 Other vegetation sampled in 1996 included corn, tomatoes and turnips representing the non-leafy vegetation group. Naturally occurring K-40 was observed in all samples at concentrations consistent with those observed during the preoperational l period. There was an indication of Cs-137 in one of the indicator sites with an average i of 9.54E+0 pCi/kg. This is most likely attributable to environmental background from old fallout remaining in the soil. There was no indication of any other radionuclides. l Fish species sampled at two indicator and one control location included bass, bream, catfish and carp. Cesium-137 was detected in 2 of 3 samples collected at all sampling locations including the control location. The highest mean Cs-137 concentration was 1.1E+1 pCi/kg (Discharge Canal, site #23,0.5 mi, ESE). There was no detected activity at the centrol site (Neal Shoals,30 mi, NNW). This compares with the highest mean MDA for Cesium-137 of 1.6E+ 1 pCi/kg. Since the levels of Cs-137 in fish at control and indicator locations is not significantly different, most of this radioactivity is attributed to residual fallout. Liquid effluent releases are assumed to l also contribute to the presence of Cs-137. However, this contribution is barely j discernible from the levels of Cs-137 present due to fallout. LiquH effluent releases I curing 1996 included 7.0E-4 Ci of Cs-137. The presence of Cesium-137 attributed to I liquid ' effluent releases from VCSNS would be limited to Parr and Monticello Reservoirs. Assuming an adult consumes 21 kg of fish a year from site #23 which contains 1.1E + 1 pCi/kg of Cs-137, the dose to an adult with the highest Cs-137 concentrations would be 2.5E-2 mrem /yr (liver). Gamma spectroscopy measurenvm of sediment samples r,ollected during 1996 resulted in detection of activation and i Mon products attributcf to VCSNS operation. Co-60 and Cs-137 were detected in two samples at Parr (Site 21) and in two samples in Monticello Reservoir (Site 23) . Cs-137 had an average concentration of 1.85E+2 and 2.25E+2 pCi/kg, respectively, for the two sites where it was detected an average concentration of 2.05E+02 pCi/kg. Thit. ;ompares to an average Cs-137 concentration in control sediment of 3.4E+2 pCi/kg with a rang of 3.0E+2 to 3.86E+2 pCi/kg. The slightly higher level of Cs-137 at Site 23 may be attributed to VCSNS operation but both sites were lower than the control samples. Co-60 had concentrations of 1.13E+2 and 7.57E+1 pCi/kg, respectively, and an average for the two sites of 9.44E+1 pCi/kg. Radiation doses to man, corre:,ponding to the concentrations of activity in sediment, were calculated using Regulatory Guide 1.109 methodology. A 500 hour / year exposure to shorc <,e sediment containing maximum and mean concentrations of Co-60, and Gs-137, a shorTline width factor of 1 and a sediment mass of 40 kg/m2was assumed. The results are included in Table 13 and show a maximum dose to the public from contaminated cediment to be 7.9E-2 mrem for 1996 based on sediment samples from Parr Reservoir. 7

! an exposed individual (sumding on the shore, Site 21 and eating fish from Site 21) is [ 1.0E-1 mrem. This dose represents a small fraction of the observed variation in natural ' ! background and a small fraction of VCSNS effluent dose limits. The reported whole I body and c.rgan dose for liquid effluents during 1996 was 7.4E-2 and 4.0E-2 mrem, respectively (VCSNS Annual Effluent Release Report,1996). The absence oi an impact was expected .3lnce, historically, releases from VCSNS have been a small fraction of ODCM Specliication limits. The dose calculated for the maximally exposed individual  ; will not result in observable effect on the ecosystem or general public. The results of the Radiological Envi'conmental Monitoring Program, therefore, substantiate the continuing adequacy of source control at VCSNS and conformance of station operation to 10 CFR 50, Appendix ! design objectives.  ; 1 I l i 8 e . _

1. Includes indicator and control analyses. Does not include supplemental l samples. All supplemental sample results were consistent with the tabulated results shown.
2. Values given are maximum MDA values for indicator locations calculated from the program data analyses with maximum acceptable LLD values allowed from NRC guidelines are given in parentheses.
3. Mean and range are based on detectable measurements only. The fractions of detectable measurements (i.e., number of positive results/ total number of measurements) at specific locations are indicated in parentheses.
4. Any confirmed measured level of radioactivity in any environmental medium that exceeds the reporting requirements of ODCM, Section 1.4.1.2.
5. Detection sensitivity is approximately 10 mrem /yr (1.0 pR/hr).
6. Elevated levels of Pb-214 and Bi-214 were observed in all Jenkinsville drinking water samples. The values are not reported here because they are naturally occurring (do not originate from VCSNS) and furnish no quantifiable information of interest.
7. Fish include 3 groups (Bass, Bream / Crappie, Catfish / Carp).
8. Elevated levels of Pb-214 and Bi-214 plus other Ra-226 daughter products and Ac-228 plus other Th-232 daughter products were observed in all sediment samples. The values are not reported here because they are naturally occurring (do not originate from VCSNS) and furnish no quantifiable information of interest.
9. Maximum MDA from control location used.

All measurements had positive results, no MDA values calculated. Table 10 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program Summary for 1996 33

1. Vrlues giver are MDA values calculated from the program data analyses with maximum acceptable LLD values allowed from NRC guidelines given in l pniciitheses.
2. Mean and range are based on detectable measurements only. The fractions of detectable measurements at specific locations are indicated in parentheses.
3. A non-routine measurerr.ent is any confirmed meas'/:ed level of radioactivity in an environmental medium that exceeds the repo: ting requirements of VCSNS ODCM, Section 1.4.1.2.
4. The baseline values are high because of the fallout from the Chinese bomb test ,

in 1980. The first set of data reflects the 1981 baseline. The second set of data reflects the 1982 baseline, essentially free of bomb test fallout. The 1982 data l covers the period 1/1/82 -10/22/82.

5. Detection sensitivity is approximately 5 mrem /yr (0.5 pR/hr) determined from the analyses of five years of preoperational data.
6. No control location was specified for drinking water during the preoperational monitoring period.
7. Inconclusive data.
