Nuclear Regulatory Commission ATTN: Document Control Desk Washington, D.C. 20555 Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station, Units 1 and 2 Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-29 and DPR-30 NRC Docket Nos. 50-254 and 50-265

Subject:

Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station Radioactive Effluent Report for January through December 2004 The attached Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station Radioactive Effluent Report for January through December 2004 is submitted in accordance with the Quad Cities Technical Specifications Section 5.6.3 and 10 CFR 50.36a. A copy of the Process Control Program for Radioactive Wastes (RW-AA-1 00), which underwent a revision during 2004, is also included as required by the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual Section 12.6.1.

Four abnormal releases occurred during 2004. These abnormal releases resulted in minor increases to normal plant radioactive effluents and are discussed in detail in this report.

It has recently been discovered that the Unit 2 off-gas flow element is not situated in the sample flow as designed (IR 322879). This situation has the potential to have caused over-reporting of fission and activation gas releases from the site. At this time, the extent of the error introduced by this situation is unknown. Pending the outcome of the investigation, errata data for this report may be submitted under separate cover at a later date.

2. Maximum Permissible Concentration a,b,c. For fission and activation gases, iodines, and particulates with half-lives greater than 8 days, allowable release limits are calculated by solving equations 10.1 and 10.2 from the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The alarm setpoint is conservatively set at approximately 10% of the 10CFR20 limit.

d. For liquid effluents allowable release limits are calculated by solving equations 10.3 and 10.4 from the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. The MPC values used for the monitors were as follows:

Radwaste discharge 1.32E-05 pCi/ml Service water 1.00E-05 piCi/ml

b. lodines:

c. Particulates:

The main chimney and reactor building ventilation exhaust systems are continually monitored for iodines and particulates. These samples are pulled every 7 days and analyzed by gamma isotopic. The particulate papers are composited every 31 days and sent to a vendor for Sr-89/90 and gross alpha analysis. Noble gas grab samples are pulled and analyzed by gamma isotopic weekly. Tritium samples are pulled and analyzed every month.

The Sr-89/90 and gross alpha curies released values reported are actual. On a real time basis, the portion of the "percent of applicable limit" for these contributors is reported based on projections using the previous six (6) months available data. The actual results are obtained by editing the ODCM software inputs when the vendor results become available. Therefore, the "percent of applicable limits" in this report are actual.

Page 9 of 70

Quad Cities Nuclear Power Station 2004 Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report Supplemental Information The continuous strip chart recorders for the monitors on the release points are reviewed monthly for spikes and the activity released is calculated. An additional calculated activity for noble gases is added to the main chimney release each month. This calculation is done because most of the grab samples show less than the lower limit of detection due to the low amount of activity and the large dilution flow at the sample point. The calculation takes into account the normal offgas train and the gland steam contribution to the release.

The average flow at the release points is used to calculate the curies released.

d. Liquid Effluents The River Discharge Tanks are analyzed before discharge by gamma isotopic. A composite representative portion of this sample is saved. This is composited with other discharges that occurred every 31 days and is analyzed for tritium and gross alpha. The monthly composites are composited quarterly and sent to a vendor for Sr-89/90 and Fe-55 analyses. The discharge bay is sampled every 31 days and analyzed by gamma isotopic, for tritium and gross alpha. It is sampled quarterly and sent to a vendor for Sr-89/90 and Fe-55 analysis. On a real time basis, the portion of the "percent of applicable limit" for these contributors is based on projections using scaling factors. The actual results are obtained by editing the ODCM software inputs when the vendor results become available.

Therefore, the "percent of applicable limits" in this report are actual.

The tank volumes and activities are used to calculate the curies released for the River Discharge Tank. The total water released during the quarter and the activity is used to calculate the diluted activity released at the discharge bay, from batch discharges.

e. Estimated Total Error Percent The estimated total error percents were calculated by taking the square root of the sum of the squares of errors for sampling and measurement parameters.

f. Less than the lower limit of detection (<LLD)

Samples are analyzed such that the Technical Specification LLD requirements are met. When a nuclide is not detected during the quarter, then <LLD is reported. The most conservative LLD's used for counting effluent samples are included in this report.

5. Batch Releases

a. Liquid

1. Number of releases: 22

2. Total time: 1.84E+04 minutes

3. Maximum time: 8.80E+02 minutes

4. Average time: 8.37E+02 minutes

5. Minimum time: 7.54E+02 minutes

6. Average stream flow: 64.4 gpm (discharge) 3.42E+05 gpm (dilution)

b. Gaseous NONE.

6. Abnormal Releases

a. Liquid

1. A leak into the 1A RHR heat exchanger service water side was repaired in June 2002. There continued to be a small amount of residual radioactivity identified in the service water side of the heat exchanger throughout 2004.

The relatively small amount of radioactivity identified was included in the normal monthly effluents for 2004 and is also included in the "continuous" liquid section of this report. As of 12/31/2004, this residual activity is no longer a significant source of radioactivity and as such will no longer be trended for radioactivity.

2. A leak into the 2A RHR heat exchanger service water side developed in October 2002. The heat exchanger was repaired in March 2004 during refuel outage Q2R17. The relatively small amount of residual radioactivity identified from the leak continues to be included in the normal monthly effluents and is also included in the "continuous" liquid section of this report.

3. A leak into the 1B RHR heat exchanger service water side developed in September 2004. The activity identified from the leak is included in the normal monthly effluents and is also included in the "continuous" liquid section of this report. A temporary modification was performed December 2004 that greatly reduced the leakage. The heat exchanger was repaired in March 2005 during refuel outage QlRl8. It is anticipated that radioactivity will need to be trended and included in the normal monthly effluents for a period after the repair, until which time it is no longer a significant source of activity.

b. Gaseous

1. An abnormal release occurred on 2/23/2004 when vault plugs were removed from an underground vault containing piping from the Offgas Filter Building. The radioactivity release to the environment was insignificant to overall station releases and ceased once the reactor unit was shutdown for Q2R17. The radioactivity was accounted for in normal monthly effluents for the station and is included in the "continuous" gaseous section of this report. The release was abnormal because the release occurred from a point other than the normal ODCM defined release point.

RW-AA-100 xe tbnsm SRevision 3 Nuclear Level 3 - Information Use PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM FOR RADIOACTIVE WASTES

1. PURPOSE 1.1. The purpose of the Process Control Program (PCP) is to:

1.1.1. Establish the process and boundary conditions for the preparation of specific procedures for processing, sampling,'analysis, packaging, storage, and shipment of solid radwaste in accordance with local, state, and federal requirements. (CM-1) 1.1.2. Establish parameters which will provide reasonable assurance that all Low Level Radioactive Wastes (LLRW), processed by the in-plant waste process systems on-site OR by on-site vendor supplied waste processing systems, meet the acceptance criteria to a Licensed Burial Facility, as required by 10CFR Part 20, 10CFR Part 61, 10CFR Part 71, 49CFR Parts 171-172, 'Technical Position on Waste Form (Revision 1)" [1/91], 'Low-Level Waste Licensing Branch Technical Position on Radioactive Waste Classification" [5/83], and the Station Technical Specifications, as applicable.

1.1.3. Provide reasonable assurance that waste placed in "on-site storage" meets the requirements as addressed within the Safety Analysis Reports for the low level radwaste storage facilities for dry and/or processed wet waste.

2. TERMS AND DEFINITIONS 2.1. Process Control Program (PCP): The program which contains the current formulas, sampling, analysis, tests, and determinations to be made to ensure that processing and packaging of solid radioactive waste based on demonstrated processing of actual or simulated wet solid wastes will be accomplished in such a way as to assure the waste meets the stabilization criteria specified in 10CFR Parts 20, 61 and 71, state regulations, and burial site requirements.

2.2. Solidification

Liquid waste processed to either an unstable or stable form per 10CFR61 requirements. Waste solidified does not have to meet the 300-year free standing monolith criteria. Approved formulas, samples and tests do not have to meet NRC approval for wastes solidified in a container meeting stability (e.g. High Integrity Container).

2.3. Stabilization

Liquid waste processed to a "stable state" per 10CFR61 Requirements. Established formulas, samples, and tests shall be approved by the NRC in order to meet solidification "stabilization" criteria. This processing method is currently not available, because the NRC recognizes that waste packed in a High Integrity Container meets the 300-year stabilization criteria. In the event that this processing method becomes an acceptable method, then the NRC shall approve the stabilization formulas, samples, tests, etc.

RW-AA-1 00 Revision 3 Page 2 of 9 2.4. Solidification Media: An approved media (e.g. Barnwell - vinyl ester styrene, cement, bitumen) when waste containing greater than 5-year half lives is solidified in a container when the activity is greater than 1 micro curie/cc. Waste solidified in a HIC is approved by the commission meeting the 10CFR61 stabilization criteria, including 1%free standing liquids by volume when the waste is packaged to a "stable" form and < 0.5% when waste is packaged to an "unstable" form. The formulas, sampling, analysis, and test do not require NRC approval, because the HIC meets the stability criteria.

2.4.1. Solidification to an unstable or stable state are performed by vendors, when applicable. Liquid waste solidified to meet stabilization criteria (10CFR61 and 01-91 Branch Technical Requirements) must have documentation available that shows that the process is approved by the NRC or disposal facility.

2.5. Dewatering

The process of removing fluids from liquid waste streams to produce a waste form that meets the requirements of 10CFR Part 61 and applicable burial site criteria, <0.5% by volume when the waste is packaged to an uunstable" state, or

<1% by volume when the waste is packaged to a 'stable" form.

2.6. High Integrity Container (HIC): A disposable container that is approved to the container's Certificate of Compliance 10CFR Part 61 Requirements for meeting stability. The use of HIC's is an alternative to solidification or encapsulation in a steel container to meet burial stability. HIC's are used to package dewatered liquid wastes, (e.g. filter cartridges, filter media, resin, sludges, etc), or dry active waste.

2.7. Encapsulation

The process of placing a component (e.g. cartridge filters or mechanical components) into a special purpose disposable container and then completely surrounding the waste material with an approved stabilization media, such as cement.

2.8. Liquid Waste Processing Systems: In-plant or vendor supplied processing systems consisting of equipment utilized for evaporation, filtration, demineralization, dewatering, solidification, or reverse osmosis (RO) for the treatment of liquid wastes (such as Floor Drains, Chemical Drains and Equipment Drain inputs).

2.9. Incineration, RVR, and/or Glass Vitrification of Liquid or Solid: Dry or wet waste processed via incineration and/or thermal processing where the volume is reduced by thermal means meets 10CFR61 requirements.

2.10. Compaction: When dry wastes such as paper, wood, plastic, cardboard, incinerator ash, and etc. are volume reduced through the use of a compactor.

2.11. Waste Streams: Consist of but are not limited to

- Filter media (powdered, bead resin and fiber),

- Filter cartridges,

- Pre-coat body feed material,

- Contaminated charcoal,

- Fuel pool activated hardware,

RW-AA-1 00 Revision 3 Page 3 of 9

- Fuel Pool Crud

- Sump and tank sludges,

- High activity filter cartridges,

- Concentrated liquids,

- Contaminated waste oil,

- Dried sewage or wastewater plant waste,

- Dry Active Waste (DAW): Waste such as filters, air filters, low activity cartridge filters, paper, wood, glass, plastic, cardboard, hoses, cloth, and metals, etc, which have become contaminated as a consequence of normal operating, housekeeping and maintenance activities.

- Other radioactive waste generated from cleanup of inadvertent contamination.
