1.0 Introduction This report describes the Union Electric Co.
Callaway Plant radioactive effluent releases for 2006.
It is submitted in accordance with Section 5.6.3 of the Callaway Plant Technical Specifications.
A summary of radioactivity released in liquid and gaseous effluents and solid waste shipped from the Callaway Plant during the period from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006 is presented.
All liquid and gaseous effluents discharged during this reporting period complied with federal regulations and the limits in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). Any exceptions are noted in this report.
1
2.0 Supplemental Information 2.1 Regulatory Limits The Radioactive Effluent Control (REC) limits applicable to the release of radioactive material in liquid and gaseous effluents are provided below.
Fission and Activation Gases (Noble Gases)
The dose rate due to radioactive noble gases released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at and beyond the site boundary shall be limited to less than or equal to 500 mrem/yr to the total body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/yr to the skin.
The air dose due to noble gases released in gaseous effluents, from each unit, to areas at and beyond the site boundary shall be limited to the following:
- a. During any calendar quarter: Less than or equal to 5 mrad for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 10 mrad for beta radiation and,
- b. During any calendar year: Less than or equal to 10 mrad for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 20 mrad for beta radiation.
Radioiodine, Tritium, And Particulates The dose rate due to Iodine-1 31 and 133, tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than eight (8) days released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at and beyond the site boundary shall be limited to less than or equal to 1500 mrem/yr to any organ.
The dose to a Member of the Public from Iodine-1 31 and 133, tritium, and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than eight (8) days in gaseous effluents released to areas at and beyond the site boundary shall be limited to the following:
- a. During any calendar quarter: Less than or equal to 7.5 mrem to any organ and,
- b. During any calendar year: Less than or equal to 15 mrem to any organ.
Liquid Effluent The concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to unrestricted areas shall be limited to ten times the concentrations specified in Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 of 1 OCFR20 for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 2.OE-04 microcuries/ml total activity.
The dose or dose commitment to an Individual from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released to unrestricted areas shall be limited:
- a. During any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the total body and less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ, and
- b. During any calendar year to less than or equal to 3 mrem to the whole body and to less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ.
Uranium Fuel Cycle Sources The annual (calendar year) dose or dose commitment to any Member of the Public due to releases of radioactivity and to radiation from uranium fuel cycle sources shall be limited to less than or equal to 25 mrem to the total body or any organ, except the thyroid, which shall be limited to less than or equal to 75 mrem.
2.2 Average Energy This requirement is not applicable to the Callaway Plant radiological effluent monitoring program since the release rate limits for fission and activation gases in gaseous effluent are not based on the average energy of the radionuclide mixture.

2.0 Su pplemental Information Continued 2.3 Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity Radionuclide concentrations in liquid and gaseous effluents were obtained by effluent sampling and radiological analysis in accordance with the requirements of Final Safety Analysis Report Table 16.11-1 and Table 16.11-4.
Gamma spectroscopy was the primary analysis technique used to determine the radionuclide composition and concentration of liquid and gaseous effluents. Liquid composite samples were analyzed for Sr-89, Sr-90, Fe-55, Ni-63, and transuranic nuclides by Environmental Inc. -
Midwest Laboratory (EIML). Gaseous composite samples were analyzed for Sr-89, Sr-90, and Fe-55 by EIML. Tritium and gross alpha were measured for both liquid and gaseous effluents using liquid scintillation counting and gas flow proportional counting techniques, respectively.
The total radioactivity in effluent releases was determined from the measured concentrations of each radionuclide present and the total volume of effluents discharged.

3.0 Summary of Gaseous Radioactive Effluents The quantity of radioactive material released in gaseous effluents during the year is summarized in Tables 1 A and 1 B. During 2006, all gaseous effluents were considered as ground level releases. The one exception being low level releases of tritium from the cooling tower.
Gaseous effluents from the plant are continuously monitored.
Instrumentation provides on-line and grab sampling for iodine, particulates and noble gas.
5
4.0 Summary of Liquid Radioactive Effluents The quantity of radioactive material released in liquid effluents during the year is summarized in Tables 2A and 2B. During 2006, there was no continuous release of liquid effluent from the plant.
Liquid effluents from the plant are continuously monitored.
Shown is a liquid radiation monitor shielded by lead to increase its sensitivity for sampling discharged water.
6
5.0 Solid Wastes The quantities of radioactive material released in shipments of solid waste for burial and irradiated fuel transported from the site during the year are summarized in Table 3. The total quantity and radioactivity reported in Table 3 for each waste type was for waste buried and includes wastes buried by waste reprocesses after volume reduction. The activity and fractional abundance of each nuclide was determined for each waste type based upon radiochemical analysis by an independent laboratory. The curie concentration 6.0 Related I of each nuclide listed in Table 3 was determined as the product of the fractional abundance and the total curies shipped. Those nuclides which comprise at least 1 % of the total activity for a particular waste type are presented in Table 3.
nformation 6.1 Unplanned Releases Unplanned releases are:
- 1) Inadvertent or accidental releases of radioactive material.
- 2) Releases of radioactive material via normal pathways without a release permit, proper authorization, or proper sampling and analysis.
- 3) Releases which are conducted in such a manner as to result in significant deviation from the requirements of the release permit.
There were no unplanned releases from Callaway Plant during 2006.
6.2 Changes to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual No changes were made to the Callaway Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM - Callaway plant procedure APA-ZZ-01 003) in 2006.
A couple of minor changes were made to Final Safety Analysis Report - Standard Plant (FSAR -
SP) Chapter 16.11, Offsite Dose Calculation Manual - Radioactive Effluent Controls (ODCM-RECs) in 2006. FSAR-SP Change Notice 05-006 added Co-60 to Table 16.11.1 Note 3.
FSAR-SP Change Notice 05-004 removed monthly particulate and iodine sampling requirements for the Unit Vent and Radwaste Vent since these are performed weekly.
FSAR-SP Change Notice 05-013 added a statement to FSAR-SP Chapter 16.11.2.8.2 to further describe the origin and bases for Xe-1 33 equivalent.
7
6.0 Related Information 6.3 Major Changes to Radwaste Systems During 2006, there were no major changes to Radwaste systems:
6.4 Land Use Census Changes No changes were identified that required a change to the location of the nearest resident yielding the highest calculated dose commitment.
6.5 Inoperability of Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation During 2006 all effluent monitoring instrumentation was OPERABLE, except for following instances, within the limits specified in Radioactive Effluent Controls 16.11.1.3 and 16.11.2.4.
While performing a retest on SP01 on 4/21/06, Unit Vent monitor GT-RE-21 B stopped while GT-RE-21 A went into accident isolate mode at 17:10. GT-RE-21 A was restarted and resumed particulate and iodine sampling at 17:21.
This resulted in a period of 11 minutes where particulate and iodine samples were not collected from the Unit Vent.
Unit Vent monitor GT-RE-21 B was repaired and returned to service later that evening at 18:24. Grab samples were taken per the ODCM-RECs due to the loss of noble gas channels on the Unit Vent (CAR 200603178).
On 11/23 the Unit Vent monitor GT-RE-21 A went to accident isolate due to failure of the microprocessor. This resulted in a period of 14 minutes where particulate and iodine samples were not collected from the Unit Vent (CAR 200609685).
An ODCM-REC required Unit Vent grab sample was missed on 6/1/06.
During performance of scheduled maintenance on Unit Vent monitor, a grab sample should have been collected at 03:22 on 6/1/06 as per FSAR-SP 16.11.2.4. The missed sample was discovered during shift turnover and taken at 06:30 on 6/1/06 (CAR 200604338).
6.6 Instances of Liquid Holdup Tanks or Waste Gas Decay Tanks Exceeding Technical Specification Limits All liquid tanks and waste gas decay tanks were within limits specified in Radioactive Effluent Controls 16.11.1 and 16.11.2 during 2006.

7.0 Meteorological Data 2006 Data Capture The on-site meteorological data for 2006 is presented as Cumulative Joint Frequency Distributions of wind speed and wind direction by atmospheric stability class for the 10 and 60 meter tower elevations.
In a continuing effort to reduce instrument downtime, additional safeguards were put in place during 2006 to more quickly discover instrument problems in the network and minimize downtime.
The contract meteorologist accessed the raw 5sec data stream each day and evaluated the performance of each instrument over the most recent 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> period. Any noted problems were immediately communicated to the systems engineer who rapidly initiated mitigating or corrective actions.
Subsequently, the 15min averaged meteorological data for each individual day of the year were statistically and graphically reviewed, analyzed, and validated by a boundary layer meteorologist. Following validation, the 15 minute data were used to calculate the hourly averages needed for model input.
Valid data recovery for 2006 was greater than 97% for all required parameters which is indicative of the success of the additional quality functions initiated in the past 2 years following earlier program problems. Specific valid recovery rates for the year are listed below:
Pictured is the Secondary Meteological Tower. This station obtains measurements at a height of 10 meters, and provides backup data for the Primary Meteological Tower readings at 10, 60 and 90 meters.
Severe Winter Storm The biggest issue encountered during 2006 affecting valid data capture was a severe ice and snow storm from late November 2 9 th through December 1 st. Heavy rain on November 2 91h changed to freezing rain near midnight and continued through the night coating all of the wind sensors with ice. The steady freezing rain was followed by periods of mixtures of freezing rain, sleet, and heavy snow through about noon on December 2 nd which added more than a foot of snow and sleet atop the initial accumulated ice on the ground.
Although all wind sensors had working heaters, the ice mass accumulations on the cups and vane bodies retarded the ability to accurately measure the winds. The instruments were declared out-of-service and the control room notified. Wind data were unreliable until ambient warming began melting the ice during the afternoon of December 2 nd. All instruments were declared operational by 1500 on the 2 nd except the 90m level sensors which did not shed ice loads until - 1100 CST on December 3 rd.

7.0 Meteorological Data - continued Instrument Failures Physical instrument failures were quite minimal and usually rectified quickly during the year.
However, failure of the 90m wind speed on January 2 3 rd could not be fixed until after the tower anchors were replaced in February. Other failures during the year included:
- 1. Failure of the primary tower 1 Om wind direction on May 1 0th which was repaired on May 1 2th (CAR 200603672).
- 2. Failure of the 60m wind speed on August 2 6th-The instrument was returned to service on August 30th.
- 3. The 90m dew point sensor failed on November 22nd with JOB 06122401 written to repair. Partially due to the weather delays, the data were not declared valid again until December 12 th.
Communication Link Failures Usually associated with momentary or short term power failures (and switching to backup power) the communications link was quite reliable through the year and data losses were insignificant.
90m WS Reduction Although not a primary measurement, the 90m wind speed is occasionally affected by apparent mechanical interference. A tower related obstruction at the 90m level is reducing the measured wind speed (as determined by difference analysis with 60m shear layers) whenever the wind direction is near 45 degrees (effect maximized at 45 degrees and becomes undetectable at about 22 degrees and 57 degrees). All data obtained in the 22-57 degree sector were flagged and each block of affected 90m WS 15 minute averages was examined and the data invalidated when the apparent error reached 0.5 m/s.
Snowfall The raingauge heater did not function properly so most snowfall was not recorded at the gauge as it fell, but rather as it melted. The periods of missing bucket tips (during snowfall) were carefully determined and the precipitation records flagged as invalid. Likewise data were removed when the snow was melting but being recorded as falling precipitation. The rain gauge is being replaced in early 2007.
Other 2006 MET Program Actions Replacement of Primary Met Tower Anchors An inspection of the tower anchors was performed by Tower Systems Inc. in late 2005.
The initial results of the inspection indicated that there was some degradation of the anchor rods near the concrete slabs in which they were embedded. Replacement of the anchors was completed in February 2006.

8.0 Assessment of Doses Assessment of doses to thermaximum exposed individual from gaseous and liquid effluents released was performed in accordance with the ODCM as described in the following sections. For all liquid and airborne effluents released from the Callaway Plant during 2006, the annual dose to the maximum exposed individual was less than 1% of the Radioactive Effluent Control limits presented in Section 2.1 of this report.
8.1 Dose at the Site Boundary from Gaseous Effluents The dose at the Site Boundary was due to plume exposure from noble gases, ground plane exposure, and inhalation. It was conservatively assumed that a hypothetical maximum exposed individual was present at the Site Boundary location with the most limiting atmospheric dispersion (based on actual meteorological conditions for the year). Dose was conservatively calculated using a child as the critical age group.
The dose from gaseous effluents at the Site Boundary for 2006 is presented in Table 5.
8.2 Dose to the Member of the Public The Member of the Public is considered to be a real individual, not occupationally associated with the plant, who uses portions of the plant site for recreational or other purposes not associated with plant operation. This individual's utilization of areas both inside and outside the Site Boundary was characterized for this calculation and is described in the ODCM.
To evaluate total dose from the Uranium Fuel Cycle to any Member of the Public, the critical Member of the Public within the Site Boundary, and the Nearest Resident were each evaluated.
Dose At The Nearest Resident From Gaseous Effluent The dose to the Nearest Resident was due to plume exposure from noble gases, ground plane exposure, and inhalation and ingestion. Dose was calculated at the nearest actual residence with the most limiting atmospheric dispersion (based on actual meteorological conditions for the year). It was conservatively assumed that each ingestion pathway (meat, milk, and vegetation) existed at this location. Dose was conservatively calculated assuming the child as the critical age group.
Dose from activities within the Site Boundary was negligible and not included in this calculation.
The doses to the Nearest Resident for 2006 are presented in Table 5.
Dose To The Member Of The Public From Activities Within The Site Boundary Based on the land use within the Site Boundary, the Member of the Public with the highest dose was a farmer. Dose from farming activities within the Site Boundary was due to direct radiation exposure, plume exposure from noble gases, ground plane exposure, and inhalation. The current tenant farmer estimates spending 1100 hours0.0127 days <br />0.306 hours <br />0.00182 weeks <br />4.1855e-4 months <br /> per year working within the Site Boundary area. Dose was calculated using the adult as the critical age group.
Dose to the Member of the Public for 2006 from activities within the Site Boundary is presented in Table 6.
11
8.0 Assessment of Doses Continued 8.3 Total Dose Due to the Uranium Fuel Cycle Since there are no other Uranium Fuel Cycle facilities within 8 kilometers of the Callaway Plant, the total dose to the most likely exposed Member of the Public resulted from direct radiation exposure and radioactive effluents from the Callaway Plant itself.
The total dose to the Member of the Public (Table 7) was the sum of the dose due to activities within the Site Boundary (Table 6) and the dose due to gaseous effluents at his residence. It was conservatively assumed that each food ingestion pathway exists at his residence and that the adult is the critical age group.
The total dose from the Uranium Fuel Cycle is presented in Table 7.
8.4 Dose Due to Liquid Effluents Dose due to liquid effluents includes contributions from the maximum exposed individual's consumption of fish and recreational activities. An adult was considered the maximum exposed individual in this assessment.
It is conservatively assumed that the hypothetical maximum exposed individual obtained his entire annual fish intake from near the plant discharge.

CALLAWAY - SP 16.11 OFFSiTE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL (ODCM 9.0) RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENT CONTROLS 16.11.1 LIQUID EFFLUENT 16.11.1.1 LIQUID EFFLUENTS CONCENTRATION LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION (ODCM 9.3.1)
The concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS (see Figure 16.11-1) shall be limited to 10 times the concentration values in Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 to 10 CFR 20.1001-20.2402, for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 2 x 1 0 -4 microCurie/ml total activity.
APPLICABILITY: At all times.
ACTION:
- a.
With the concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS exceeding the above limits, immediately restore the concentration to within the above limits.
- b.
The provisions of Sections 16.0.1.3 and 16.0.1.4 are not applicable.
16.11.1.1.1 SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS (ODCM 9.3.2) 16.11.1.1.1.a Radioactive liquid wastes shall be sampled and analyzed according to the sampling and analysis program of Table 16.11-1.
16.11.1.11.1.b The results of the radioactivity analysis shall be used in accordance with the methodology and parameters in the ODCM to assure that the concentrations at the point of release are maintained within the limits of Section 16.11.1.1.
16.11.1.1.2 BASES This section is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be less than 10 times the concentration in Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 to 10 CFR 20.1001-20.2402. This limitation provides additional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies 16.11-1 Rev. OL-15d 3/07,
CALLAWAY - SP of water in UNRESTRICTED AREAS will result in exposures within: (1) the Section IL.A design objectives of Appendix 1, 10 CFR Part 50, to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC, and (2) the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.1301 to the population. The concentration limit for dissolved or entrained noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xe-1 35 is the controlling radioisotope and its MPC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) Publication 2.
The required detection capabilities for radioactive materials in liquid waste samples are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLD's).
16.11-2 Rev. OL-15d 3/07
CALLAWAY - SP 16.11.1.2 DOSE FROM LIQUID EFFLUENTS LIMITING CONDITION FOR OPERATION (ODCM 9.4.1)
The dose or dose commitment to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released, from each unit, to UNRESTRICTED AREAS (see Figure 16.11-1) shall be limited:
- a.
During any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 1.5 mrems to the whole body and to less than or equal to 5 mrems to any organ, and
- b.
During any calendar year to less than or equal to 3 mrems to the whole body and to less than or equal to 10 mrems to any organ.
APPLICABILITY: At all times.
ACTION:
- a.
With the calculated dose from the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents exceeding any of the above limits, prepare and submit to the Commission within 30 days a Special Report that identifies the cause(s) for exceeding the limit(s) and defines the corrective actions that have been taken to reduce the releases and the proposed corrective actions to be taken to assure that subsequent releases will be in compliance with the above limits. This Special Report shall also include: (1) the results of radiological analyses of the drinking water source, and (2) the radiological impact on finished drinking water supplies with regard to the requirements of 40 CFR Part 141, Clean Drinking Water Act.*
- b.
The provisions of Sections 16.0.1.3 and 16.0.1.4 are not applicable.

The dose rate limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20.1-20.601, Appendix B, Table II, Column 1. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC in an UNRESTRICTED AREA, either within or outside the SITE BOUNDARY, to annual average concentrations exceeding the dose limits specified in 10 CFR Part 20 10 CFR 20.1301. For MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC who may at times be within the SITE BOUNDARY, the occupancy of that MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC will usually be sufficiently low to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the SITE BOUNDARY. Examples of calculations for such MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC, with the appropriate occupancy factors, shall be given in the ODCM. The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at or beyond the SITE BOUNDARY to less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the whole body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrems/year to the skin. These release rate limits also restrict, at all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background to a child via the inhalation pathway to less than or equal to 1500 mrems/year.
The required detection capabilities for radioactive materials in gaseous waste samples are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLD's).
The requirement for additional sampling of the Unit Vent following a reactor power transient is provided to ensure that the licensee is aware of and properly accounts for any increases in the release of gaseous effluents due to spiking which may occur as a result of the power transient. Monitoring the Unit Vent for increased noble gas activity is appropriate because it is the release point for any increased activity which may result from the power transient.
Since the escape rate coefficients for the noble gas nuclides is equal to or greater than the escape rate coefficient for iodine and the particulate nuclides*,**, it is reasonable to assume that the RCS spiking behavior of the noble gas nuclides is similar to that of the particulate and iodine nuclides. Considering the effects of iodine and particulate partitioning, plateout on plant and ventilation system surfaces, and the 99% efficiency of the Unit Vent HEPA filters and charcoal absorbers, it is reasonable to assume that the relative concentrations of the noble gas nuclides will be much greater than those of the Cohen, Paul, Water Coolant Technology of Power Reactors, Table 5.19, page 198. American Nuclear Society. 1980.

CALLAWAY - SP iodine and particulate nuclides. Therefore, an increase in the iodine and particulate RCS activity is not an appropriate indicator of an increase in the Unit Vent activity, and it is appropriate to monitor the Unit Vent effluent activity as opposed to the RCS activity as an indicator of the need to perform post-transient sampling. In addition, it is appropriate to monitor the noble gas activity due to its relatively greater concentration in the Unit Vent.

16.11.2.7.2 BASES Mechanical 'degassing operation' is defined as the transfer of gas from the Volume Control Tank (VCT) to the Waste Gas Holdup System when establishing a nitrogen blanket on the VCT in preparation for a plant shutdown. Chemical 'degassing operation' is the process of adding hydrogen peroxide to the RCS after the VCT hydrogen blanket has been replaced with nitrogen per the Mechanical degassification process and the RCS has been reduced to less than 1800F. Both Mechanical and Chemical degassification may lead to an explosive gas mixture in the Waste Gas Holdup System, thus requiring the more restrictive 4 hour4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> sampling.

The "FEED H2 4%/FEED 02 3%" AND "FEED H2 4%/FEED 02 4%" alarms are not required to be OPERABLE. These alarms result from the combination of inlet Hydrogen and inlet Oxygen analyzer outputs while the FSAR only addresses OPERABILITY of each separate analyzer. Only the individual alarms and control functions associated with each analyzer are to be used to determine its operability. These alarms and control functions are sufficient to ensure that the requirements of Section 16.11.2.6 are not exceeded.

16.11.2.8.2 BASES The tanks included in this specification are those tanks for which the quantity of radioactivity contained is not limited directly or indirectly by another Technical Specification. Restricting the quantity of radioactivity contained in each gas storage tank provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tank's contents, the resulting whole body exposure to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC at the nearest SITE BOUNDARY will not exceed 0.5 rem.

.limited to less than or equal to 25 mrems to the whole body or any organ, except the thyroid, which shall be limited to less than or equal to 75 mrem.
APPLICABILITY: At all times.
ACTION:
- a.
With the calculated doses from the release of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents exceeding twice the limits of Section 16.11.2.2a, 16.11.2.2b, 16.11.2.3a, or 16.11.2.3b, calculations should be made including direct radiation contributions from the units and from outside storage tanks to determine whether the above limits of Section 16.11.3.1 have been exceeded. If such is the case, prepare and submit to the Commission within 30 days a Special Report that defines the corrective action to be taken to reduce subsequent release to prevent recurrence of exceeding the above limits and includes the schedule for achieving conformance with the above limits. This Special Report, as defined in 10 CFR 20.2203, shall include an analysis that estimates the radiation exposure (dose) to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from uranium fuel cycle sources, including all effluent pathways and direct radiation, for the calendar year that includes the release(s) covered by this report. It shall also describe levels of radiation and concentrations of radioactive material involved, and the cause of the exposure levels or concentrations. If the estimated dose(s) exceeds the above limits, and if the release condition resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 has not already been corrected, the Special Report shall include a request for a variance in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR Part 190.

- a. of Section 16.11.3.1.
16.11.3.1.2 BASES This specification is provided to meet the dose limitations of 40 CFR Part 190 that have been incorporated into 10 CFR Part 20.1301. The control requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses due to releases of radioactivity and the radiation from uranium fuel cycle sources exceed 25 mrems to the whole body or any organ except the thyroid, which shall be limited to less than or equal to 75 mrems. For sites containing up to four reactors, it is highly unlikely that the resultant dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC will exceed the dose limits of 40 CFR Part 190 if the individual reactors remain within twice the dose design objectives of Appendix I, and if direct radiation doses from the reactor units and from outside storage tanks are kept small. The Special Report will describe a course of action that should result in the limitation of the annual dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC to within the 40 CFR Part 190 limits.
For the purposes of the Special Report, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from other uranium fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contributions from other nuclear fuel cycle facilities at the same site or within a radius of 8 km must be considered. If the dose to any MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC is estimated to exceed the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190, the Special Report with a request for a variance (provided the release conditions resulting in violation of 40 CFR Part 190 have not already been corrected), in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR Part 190.11 and 10 CFR 20.2203, is considered to be a timely request and fulfills the requirements of 40 CFR Part 190 until NRC staff action is completed. The variance only relates to 40 CFR Part 190, and does not apply in any way to the other requirements for dose limitation of 10 CFR Part 20, as addressed in Sections 16.11.1.1 and 16.11.2.1.
An individual is not considered a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC during any period in which he/she is engaged in carrying out any operation that is part of the nuclear fuel cycle.
There are three defined effluent release categories: 1.) Releases directly to the hydrosphere; 2.) noble gas releases to the atmosphere; 3.) radioiodine and particulate releases to the atmosphere. For each effluent release category, it is assumed in the dose calculations that an individual with the highest dose potential is the receptor. In general, the adult is considered to be the critical age group for liquid effluents, and the child age group is the most limiting for radioiodine and particulates in gaseous effluents.
16.11-28 Rev. OL-15d 3/07
CALLAWAY - SP Thus, it is highly unlikely or impossible for the same individual to simultaneously receive the highest dose via all three effluent categories. For most reactor sites, it is also unlikely that all different potential dose pathways would contribute to the dose to a single real individual. Since it is difficult or impossible to continually determine actual food use patterns and critical age group, for calculational purposes, assumptions are made which tend to maximize doses. Any refinement in the assumptions would have the effect of reducing the estimated dose. For radionuclides released to the hydrosphere, the degree of overestimation in most situations is such that no individual will receive a significant dose. These conservative assumptions generally result in an overestimation of dose by one or two orders of magnitude. Since these assumptions are reflected in the Radiological Effluent Controls limiting radionuclide releases to design objective individual doses, no offsite individual is likely to actually receive a significant dose. Since the doses from liquid releases are very conservatively evaluated, there is reasonable assurance that no real individual will receive a significant dose from radioactive liquid release pathway. Therefore, only doses to individuals via airborne pathways and dose resulting from direct radiation need to be considered in determining potential compliance to 40 CFR 190*.
The reporting requirements of Action(a) implement the requirements of 10CFR20.2203.

Gross Alpha 1 E-7 Quarterly Composite (4) 3r-89, Sr-90 5E-8 Fe-55 1 E-6 TABLE NOTATIONS (1) The LLD is defined, for purposes of these specifications, as 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.
For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation:
LLD -4.66 Sb E x V x 2.22E6 x Y x exp(-?XAt)
Where:
LLD Sb
= the "a priori" lower limit of detection (microCuries per unit mass or volume),
= the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (counts per minute),
= the counting efficiency (counts per disintegration),
= the sample size (units of mass or volume),
3= the number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie, E
V 2.22E1 Y
= the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, x
= the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec-1), and Rev. OL-15 5/06
CALLAWAY - SP TABLE 16.11-1 (Sheet 2)
At
= the elapsed time between the midpoint of the sample collection period, and the time of counting (sec). For batch releases, At=O.
Typical values of E, V, Y, and At should be used in the calculation.
It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a "a priori" (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an "a posteriori" (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement. Analyses shall be performed in such a manner that the stated LLD's will be achieved under routine conditions.
(2) A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for analyses, each batch shall be isolated, and then thoroughly mixed by a method described in the ODCM to assure representative sampling.
(3) The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD control applies include the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141, and Ce-144. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be considered. Other gamma peaks that are identifiable, together with those of the above nuclides, shall also be analyzed and reported in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report pursuant to Technical Specification 5.6.3, in the format outlined in Regulatory Guide 1.21, Appendix B, Revision 1, June 1974.
(4) A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is proportional to the quantity of liquid waste discharged and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen that is representative of the liquids released. Prior to analysis, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite samples to be representative of the effluent release.
(5) A continuous release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a nondiscrete volume, e.g., from a volume of a system that has an input flow during the continuous release.
(6) Samples shall be taken at the initiation of effluent flow and at least once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> thereafter while the release is occurring.
To be representative of the liquid effluent, the sample volume shall be proportioned to the effluent stream discharge volume.
The ratio of sample volume to effluent discharge volume shall be maintained constant for all samples taken for the composite sample.
(7) Samples shall be representative of the effluent release.

Specific parameters of distance and direction sector from the centerline of one unit, and additional description where pertinent, shall be provided for each and every sample location in Table 16.11-7 in a table and figure(s) in the appropriate plant procedures. Deviations are permitted from the required sampling schedule if specimens are unobtainable due to hazardous conditions, seasonal unavailability, malfunction of automatic sampling equipment, and other legitimate reasons. If specimens are unobtainable due to sampling equipment malfunction, every effort shall be made to complete corrective action prior to the end of the next sampling period. All deviations from the sampling schedule shall be documented in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report pursuant to Technical Specification 5.6.2.
It is recognized that, at times, it may not be possible or practicable to continue to obtain samples of the media of choice at the most desired location or time. In these instances suitable specific alternative media and locations may be chosen for the particular pathway in question and appropriate substitutions made within 30 days in the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. Submit in the next Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report documentation for a change including the revised figure(s) and table reflecting the new location(s) with supporting information identifying the cause of the unavailability of samples for that pathway and justifying the selection of the new location(s) for obtaining samples.
The selection of sample locations should consider accessibility of sample site, availability of power, wind direction frequency, sector population, equipment security, and the presence of potentially adverse environmental conditions (such as unusually dusty conditions, etc.).

One or more instruments, such as a pressurized ion chamber, for measuring and recording dose rate continuously may be used in place of, or in addition to, integrating dosimeters.
For the purposes of this table, a thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) is considered to be one phosphor; two or more phosphors in a packet are considered as two or more dosimeters. Film badges shall not be used as dosimeters for measuring direct radiation. The number of direct radiation monitoring stations may be reduced according to geographical limitations; e.g., at an ocean site, some sectors will be over water so that the number of dosimeters may be reduced accordingly. The frequency of analysis or readout for TLD systems will depend upon the characteristics of the specific system used and should be selected to obtain optimum dose information with minimal fading.

Required detection capabilities for thermoluminescent dosimeters used for environmental measurements shall be in accordance with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 4.13, Revision 1, July 1977.

The LLD is defined, for purposes of these specifications, as 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.
For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation:
LLD 4.6 6 Sb E x V x 2.22E6 x Y x exp(-XAt)
Where:
= the "a priori" lower limit of detection (microCuries per unit mass or volume),
Sb
= the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (counts per minute),
E
= the counting efficiency (counts per disintegration),
V
= the sample size (units of mass or volume),
2.22E6
= the number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie, Y
= the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, X
= the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec-1), and At
= the elapsed time between the end of the sample collection period, and the time of counting (sec).
Typical values of E, V, Y, and At should be used in the calculation.
It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a "a priori" (before the fact) limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an "a posteriori" (after the fact) limit for a particular measurement. Analyses shall be performed in such a manner that the stated LLD's will be achieved under routine conditions.
