Table 0-t LISTING OF SAMPLE ANOMALIES cnnud Sample Location Collection Reason "Type Code Date WG D-23 08/08/14 The LLDs for 1-131, Ba-140, and La-140 could not be met because Teledyne mistakenly did not analyze the sample for the gamma analysis when received. This error was discovered by Teledyne while assembling the AREOR. Upon discovering the error, the sample was analyzed for gamma. All LLDs with the exception of 1-131, Ba-140 and La-140 were met.

Nonconformance Report (NCR) 15-12 was initiated by the laboratory to address/investigate this error.

Tritium All samples were analyzed for tritium activity (Table C-I1.1, Appendix C). Tritium was detected in eleven of sixteen samples.

The concentrations ranged from 329 to 678 pCi/l. Concentrations detected were consistent with those detected in previous years (Figure C-7, Appendix C).

Gamma Sp~ectrometry All samples were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-11.2, Appendix C). No nuclides were detected and all required LLDs were met with the exception of the August 0-23 sample for nuclides 1-131, 8ta-140, and La-140. This occurred is due to the laboratory not analyzing the sample at time of receipt.

Nonconformance Report (NCR) 15-1 2 was initiated by the laboratory to address/investigate this error.

3. Fish Fish samples comprised of golden redhorse, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, common carp and freshwater drum were collected at two locations (0-28 and 0-46) semiannually. Location 0-28 could be affected by Dresden's effluent releases. The following analysis was performed:

Gamma__S.2ectrom etnr.

The edible portion of fish samples from both locations was analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-1ll. 1, Appendix C).

Naturally occurring K-40 was found at both locations. No fission or activation products were detected.

4. Sediment Aquatic sediment samples were collected at one location (D-27) semiannually. This downstream location could be affected by Dresden's effluent releases. The following analysis was performed:

GamaS ectrometr Sediment samples from the location were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides (Table C-IV.l1, Appendix C). Cesium-1 37 was detected in both samples. The concentrations ranged from 129 to
