Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount of C-14 in the atmosphere.

C-14 is also produced in commercial nuclear reactors, but the amounts produced are much less than those produced naturally or from weapons testing.In Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 2, "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste", the NRC recomnends U.S. nuclear power plants evaluate whether C-14 is a "principal radionuclide", and. if so, report the amount of C- 14 released.
 
At Catawba, improvements over the years in effluent management practices and fuel perfornance have resulted in a decrease in gaseous radionuclide (non-C-14) concentrations, and a change in the distribution of gaseous radionuclides released to the environment.

As a result, C-14 has become a "principal radionuclide" for the gaseous effluent pathway at Catawba, as defined in Regulatory Guide 1.21, Rev. 2. Catawba's 2012 Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report (ARERR) contains estimates of C-14 radioactivity released in 2012, and estimates of public dose resulting from the C: 14 effluent.Because the dose contribution of C- 14 from liquid radioactive waste is much less than that contributed by gaseous radioactive waste, evaluation of C-14 in liquid radioactive waste at Catawba is not required (Ref. Reg. Guide 1.21, Rev. 2). The quantity of gaseous C-14 released to the environment can be estimated by use of a C- 14 source term scaling factor based on power generation (Ref. Reg. Guide 1.21, Rev. 2). Many documents provide infornation related to the magnitude of C- 14 in typical effluents from commercial nuclear power plants. Those documents suggest that nominal annual releases of C- 14 in gaseous effluents are approximately 5 to 7.3 curies from PWRs (Ref. Reg. Guide 1.21, Rev. 2). A more recent study recormnends a higher C-14 gaseous source term scaling factor of approximately 9.0 to 9.8 Ci/GWe-yr for a PWR (Westinghouse) (Ref. EPRI 1021106).

For the 2012 Catawba ARERR a source term scaling factor of 9.4 Ci/GWe-yr is assumed. Using a source term scaling factor of 9.4 Ci/GWe-yr and actual electric generation (MWe-hrs) from Catawba in 2012 results in a site total C-14 gaseous release estimate to the environment of -20 Curies. 70% of the C-14 gaseous effluent is assumed to be from batch releases (e.g. WGDTs), and 30% of C-14 gaseous effluent is assumed to be from continuous releases through the unit vents (ref. IAEA Technical Reports Series no. 421,"Management of Waste Containing Tritium and Carbon-14", 2004).C- 14 releases in PWRs occur primarily as a mix of organic carbon and carbon dioxide released from the waste gas system. Since the PWR operates with a reducing chemistry, most, if not all, of the C-14 species initially produced are organic (e.g., methane).
: 2. lodines
As a general rule, C-14 in the primary coolant is essentially all organic with a large fraction as a gaseous species. Any time the RCS liquid or gas is exposed to an oxidizing environment (e.g. during shutdown or refueling), a slow transformation from an organic to an inorganic chemical form can occur. Various studies documenting measured C-14 releases from PWRs suggest a range of 70% to 95% organic with an average of 80% organic with the remainder being CO 2 (Ref. EPRI TR-105715).
  ** No Nuclide Activities     **
For the Catawba 2012 ARERR a value of 80% organic C-14 is assumed.

ATTACHMENT 2 Supplemental Information to the Gaseous and Liquid Effluents Report
 
Page 1 of 2 Catawba 2012 ARERR - Carbon-14 Supplemental Information Carbon-14 (C-14), with a half-life of 5730 years, is a naturally occurring isotope of carbon produced by cosmic ray interactions in the atmosphere. Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount of C-14 in the atmosphere. C-14 is also produced in commercial nuclear reactors, but the amounts produced are much less than those produced naturally or from weapons testing.
In Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 2, "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste", the NRC recomnends U.S. nuclear power plants evaluate whether C-14 is a "principal radionuclide", and. if so, report the amount of C- 14 released. At Catawba, improvements over the years in effluent management practices and fuel perfornance have resulted in a decrease in gaseous radionuclide (non-C-14) concentrations, and a change in the distribution of gaseous radionuclides released to the environment. As a result, C-14 has become a "principal radionuclide" for the gaseous effluent pathway at Catawba, as defined in Regulatory Guide 1.21, Rev. 2. Catawba's 2012 Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report (ARERR) contains estimates of C-14 radioactivity released in 2012, and estimates of public dose resulting from the C: 14 effluent.
Because the dose contribution of C- 14 from liquid radioactive waste is much less than that contributed by gaseous radioactive waste, evaluation of C-14 in liquid radioactive waste at Catawba is not required (Ref. Reg. Guide 1.21, Rev. 2). The quantity of gaseous C-14 released to the environment can be estimated by use of a C- 14 source term scaling factor based on power generation (Ref. Reg.

Those documents suggest that nominal annual releases of C- 14 in gaseous effluents are approximately 5 to 7.3 curies from PWRs (Ref. Reg. Guide 1.21, Rev. 2). A more recent study recormnends a higher C-14 gaseous source term scaling factor of approximately 9.0 to 9.8 Ci/GWe-yr for a PWR (Westinghouse) (Ref. EPRI 1021106). For the 2012 Catawba ARERR a source term scaling factor of 9.4 Ci/GWe-yr is assumed. Using a source term scaling factor of 9.4 Ci/GWe-yr and actual electric generation (MWe-hrs) from Catawba in 2012 results in a site total C-14 gaseous release estimate to the environment of -20 Curies. 70% of the C-14 gaseous effluent is assumed to be from batch releases (e.g. WGDTs), and 30% of C-14 gaseous effluent is assumed to be from continuous releases through the unit vents (ref. IAEA Technical Reports Series no. 421, "Management of Waste Containing Tritium and Carbon-14", 2004).
C- 14 releases in PWRs occur primarily as a mix of organic carbon and carbon dioxide released from the waste gas system. Since the PWR operates with a reducing chemistry, most, if not all, of the C-14 species initially produced are organic (e.g., methane). As a general rule, C-14 in the primary coolant is essentially all organic with a large fraction as a gaseous species. Any time the RCS liquid or gas is exposed to an oxidizing environment (e.g. during shutdown or refueling), a slow transformation from an organic to an inorganic chemical form can occur.

For the Catawba 2012 ARERR a value of 80% organic C-14 is assumed.
 
Page 2 of 2 Public dose estimates from airborne C-14 are performed using dose models in NUREG-0133 and Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose models and assumptions used are documented in the Catawba ODCM. The estimated C-14 dose impact on the maximum organ dose from airborne effluents released from Catawba in 2012 is well below the 1OCFR50, Appendix I, ALARA design objective (i.e., 15 mrem/yr per unit).

Catawba Nuclear Station 2012 Radioactive Effluent and ISFSI 40CFR190 Uranium Fuel Cycle Dose Calculation Results In accordance with the requirements of 40CFR 190, the annual dose commitment to any member of the general public shall be calculated to assure that doses are limited to 25 millirems to the total body or any organ with the exception of the thyroid which is limited to 75 millirems. The fuel cycle dose assessment for Catawba Nuclear Station only includes liquid and gaseous effluent dose contributions from Catawba and direct and air-scatter dose from Catawba's onsite Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) since no other uranium fuel cycle facility contributes significantly to Catawba's maximum exposed individual. Included in the gaseous effluent dose calculations is an estimate of the dose contributed by Carbon-14 (Ref. "Carbon-14 Supplemental Information", contained in the ARERR for further information). The combined dose to a maximum exposed individual from Catawba's effluent releases and direct and air-scatter dose from Catawba's ISFSI is below 40CFR190 limits as shown by the following summary:

Axial flux profiles, fuel hardware activation, component activation, and the potential impacts from burnable poisons were modeled. Both gamma and neutron source spectrums were produced.
The requirements of §72.104 are as follows:
In order to ensure that the gamma flux was conservative, the model includes the impact from activation of components, fuel hardware, and light elements.

The results from the source term calculation (Reference 7.3-3) are used as the source term spectra input to the shielding model (Reference 7.3-4).MCNP, a Monte-Carlo code for neutron and photon transport, was utilized for the shielding computations.
 
This code is an industry standard and is typically applied to problems of this type. The fuel related source term was normalized to the 20 kW administrative decay heat limit and the component source term was normalized to an eight-year decay duration.The MCNP models were set up using the source terms developed for the four source regions in Reference 7.3-3: fuel (neutron and gamma), fuel hardware, upper plenum, and upper nozzle. These source regions include contributions from both the fuel assembly and the component, as physically appropriate.

The same mesh tally scheme was applied to each source case so the results for each source term could then be summed to produce the final result. A detailed cask model was developed (the work was performed by the cask vendor) and replicated ina 2 by 12 array mimicking the planned arrangement of the loaded canisters on the Catawba ISFSI pad. This represents a full pad of loaded canisters.

Detector locations were laid out on a grid in three dimensions and plots for both near and far field doses were obtained. However, because the coordinate axes align with the cask array orientation, the highest doses are seen along the axes. Thus, for a given distance the highest dose will be found along the x axis, as the long part of the array defines the y axis. The results are as expected for the near and far field doses. Conservatively, the coordinate system was eschewed in the evaluation of the results for 72.104 purposes in favor or the straight line distance to the limiting receptor location (nearest real individual). The nearest real individual is over 450 meters from the ISFSI, but a conservative evaluation distance of 405 meters is adopted. This distance from the ISFSI is within the site boundary. No real individual can live within the (site controlled) boundary, so this distance (location) bounds any real individual (living off-site). As shown in Table 6.7-5 of Reference 7.3-4, the annual dose to the nearest real individual from a full 2 by 12 array of loaded canisters with limiting 20 kW fuel sources and inserts decayed for eight years is 16.6 mrem/yr.

ATTACHMENT 2 Supplemental Information to the Gaseous and Liquid Effluents Report

Page 1 of 2 Catawba 2012 ARERR - Carbon-14 Supplemental Information Carbon-14 (C-14), with a half-life of 5730 years, is a naturally occurring isotope of carbon produced by cosmic ray interactions in the atmosphere. Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount of C-14 in the atmosphere. C-14 is also produced in commercial nuclear reactors, but the amounts produced are much less than those produced naturally or from weapons testing.

In Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 2, "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste", the NRC recomnends U.S. nuclear power plants evaluate whether C-14 is a "principal radionuclide", and. if so, report the amount of C- 14 released. At Catawba, improvements over the years in effluent management practices and fuel perfornance have resulted in a decrease in gaseous radionuclide (non-C-14) concentrations, and a change in the distribution of gaseous radionuclides released to the environment. As a result, C-14 has become a "principal radionuclide" for the gaseous effluent pathway at Catawba, as defined in Regulatory Guide 1.21, Rev. 2. Catawba's 2012 Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report (ARERR) contains estimates of C-14 radioactivity released in 2012, and estimates of public dose resulting from the C: 14 effluent.

Because the dose contribution of C- 14 from liquid radioactive waste is much less than that contributed by gaseous radioactive waste, evaluation of C-14 in liquid radioactive waste at Catawba is not required (Ref. Reg. Guide 1.21, Rev. 2). The quantity of gaseous C-14 released to the environment can be estimated by use of a C- 14 source term scaling factor based on power generation (Ref. Reg. Guide 1.21, Rev. 2). Many documents provide infornation related to the magnitude of C- 14 in typical effluents from commercial nuclear power plants. Those documents suggest that nominal annual releases of C- 14 in gaseous effluents are approximately 5 to 7.3 curies from PWRs (Ref. Reg. Guide 1.21, Rev. 2). A more recent study recormnends a higher C-14 gaseous source term scaling factor of approximately 9.0 to 9.8 Ci/GWe-yr for a PWR (Westinghouse) (Ref. EPRI 1021106). For the 2012 Catawba ARERR a source term scaling factor of 9.4 Ci/GWe-yr is assumed. Using a source term scaling factor of 9.4 Ci/GWe-yr and actual electric generation (MWe-hrs) from Catawba in 2012 results in a site total C-14 gaseous release estimate to the environment of -20 Curies. 70% of the C-14 gaseous effluent is assumed to be from batch releases (e.g. WGDTs), and 30% of C-14 gaseous effluent is assumed to be from continuous releases through the unit vents (ref. IAEA Technical Reports Series no. 421, "Management of Waste Containing Tritium and Carbon-14", 2004).

C- 14 releases in PWRs occur primarily as a mix of organic carbon and carbon dioxide released from the waste gas system. Since the PWR operates with a reducing chemistry, most, if not all, of the C-14 species initially produced are organic (e.g., methane). As a general rule, C-14 in the primary coolant is essentially all organic with a large fraction as a gaseous species. Any time the RCS liquid or gas is exposed to an oxidizing environment (e.g. during shutdown or refueling), a slow transformation from an organic to an inorganic chemical form can occur. Various studies documenting measured C-14 releases from PWRs suggest a range of 70% to 95% organic with an average of 80% organic with the remainder being CO 2 (Ref. EPRI TR-105715). For the Catawba 2012 ARERR a value of 80% organic C-14 is assumed.

Page 2 of 2 Public dose estimates from airborne C-14 are performed using dose models in NUREG-0133 and Regulatory Guide 1.109. The dose models and assumptions used are documented in the Catawba ODCM. The estimated C-14 dose impact on the maximum organ dose from airborne effluents released from Catawba in 2012 is well below the 1OCFR50, Appendix I, ALARA design objective (i.e., 15 mrem/yr per unit).

CATAWBA NUCLEAR STATION Overall Estimate of Error for Effluent Radioactivity Release Reported The estimated percentage of overall error for both Liquid and Gaseous effluent release data at Catawba Nuclear Station has been determined to be + 30.3%. This value was derived by taking the square root of the sum of the squares of the following discrete individual estimates of error:

(1) Flow Rate Determining Devices = +20%

(2) Counting Statistical Error = +20%

(3) Calibration Error = -10%

(4) Calibration Source Error = +2.5%

(5) Sample Preparation Error = +/-3%

Catawba Nuclear Station 2012 Radioactive Effluent and ISFSI 40CFR190 Uranium Fuel Cycle Dose Calculation Results In accordance with the requirements of 40CFR 190, the annual dose commitment to any member of the general public shall be calculated to assure that doses are limited to 25 millirems to the total body or any organ with the exception of the thyroid which is limited to 75 millirems. The fuel cycle dose assessment for Catawba Nuclear Station only includes liquid and gaseous effluent dose contributions from Catawba and direct and air-scatter dose from Catawba's onsite Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) since no other uranium fuel cycle facility contributes significantly to Catawba's maximum exposed individual. Included in the gaseous effluent dose calculations is an estimate of the dose contributed by Carbon-14 (Ref. "Carbon-14 Supplemental Information", contained in the ARERR for further information). The combined dose to a maximum exposed individual from Catawba's effluent releases and direct and air-scatter dose from Catawba's ISFSI is below 40CFR190 limits as shown by the following summary:

1. 2012 Catawba 40CFR190 Effluent Dose Summary The 40CFR 190 effluent dose analysis to the maximum exposed individual from liquid and gas releases includes the dose from noble gases (i.e., total body and skin).

Maximum Total Body Dose = 2.03E+00 mrem Maximum Location: 0.5 Mile, Northeast Sector Critical Age: Child Gas non-NG Contribution: 95.3%

Gas NG Contribution: 1.0%

Liquid Contribution: 3.7%

Maximum Organ (other than TB) Dose = 4.49E+00 mrem Maximum Location: 0.5 Mile, Northeast Sector Critical Age: Child Critical Organ: Bone Gas Contribution: 99.9%

Liquid Contribution: 0.1%

II. 2012 Catawba 40CFR190 ISFSI Dose Summary Direct and air-scatter radiation dose contributions from the onsite Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) at Catawba have been calculated and documented in the "Catawba Nuclear Station, ISFSI, 1OCFR72.212 Evaluation" report. The maximum dose rate to the nearest resident from the Catawba ISFSI is conservatively calculated to be 16.6 mremlyear.

The attached excerpt from the "Catawba Nuclear Station, ISFSI, IOCFR72.212 Evaluation" report is provided to document the method used to calculate the Catawba ISFSI 16.6 mrem/year dose estimate.

The following three pages are excerpted from the "Catawba Nuclear Station, Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation, 1OCFR72.212 Evaluation, NAC-UMS Universal Storage System" report.

CNS 10CFR72.212 Evaluation NAC-UMS Universal Storage System Page 31 of 56 7.3 10CFR72.212(b)(2)(i)(C) - Requirements of §72.104

"(C) the requirementsof§72.104 have been met. A copy of this recordmust be retaineduntil spentfuel is no longer stored under the general license issued under §72.210."

The requirements of §72.104 are as follows:

(a) During normal operations and anticipated occurrences, the annual dose equivalent to any real individual who is located beyond the controlled area must not exceed 0.25 mSv (25 mrem) to the whole body, 0.75 mSv (75 mrem) to the thyroid and 0.25 mSv (25 mrem) to any other critical organ as a result of exposure to:

(1) Planned discharges of radioactive materials, radon and its decay products excepted, to the general environment, (2) Direct radiation from ISFSI or MRS operations, and (3) Any other radiation from uranium fuel cycle operations within the region.

Doses from 24 loaded storage casks located at the ISFSI have been calculated. This represents the placement of a loaded canister at all available locations on the current ISFSI storage pad, completing the projected loading for Phase I.

The methodology and results of the dose calculations are discussed in detail in References 7.3-3 and 7.3-4. A summary of the methodology and results is presented below.

There are two calculations used to estimate the impact of the ISFSI direct radiation doses. The first calculation (Reference 7.3-3) determines a fuel assembly source term to be used in the subsequent shielding model. In order to bound fuel assemblies loaded into canisters in the past and projected to be loaded in the future, the same, bounding fuel assembly is modeled for all 24 spaces in each of the 24 casks. The source term was developed to bound ll types of LEU fuel at Catawba (Westinghouse OFA, RFA, and-Mk-BW). Axial flux profiles, fuel hardware activation, component activation, and the potential impacts from burnable poisons were modeled. Both gamma and neutron source spectrums were produced. In order to ensure that the gamma flux was conservative, the model includes the impact from activation of components, fuel hardware, and light elements. Thus, each spent fuel location models a bounding fuel assembly with a bounding activated component (thimble plug).

CNS 1OCFR72.212 Evaluation NAC-UMS Universal Storage System Page 32 of 56 The source term was modeled using the SAS2H coupled shielding and depletion analysis module of the SCALE code suite. This module utilizes the ORIGEN-S point depletion code to compute the source spectra. An appropriate 44 group library was employed. Use of this code is a standard industry application for source term depletion and decay calculations. It is utilized in a manner consistent with its development.

The results from the source term calculation (Reference 7.3-3) are used as the source term spectra input to the shielding model (Reference 7.3-4).

MCNP, a Monte-Carlo code for neutron and photon transport, was utilized for the shielding computations. This code is an industry standard and is typically applied to problems of this type. The fuel related source term was normalized to the 20 kW administrative decay heat limit and the component source term was normalized to an eight-year decay duration.

The MCNP models were set up using the source terms developed for the four source regions in Reference 7.3-3: fuel (neutron and gamma), fuel hardware, upper plenum, and upper nozzle. These source regions include contributions from both the fuel assembly and the component, as physically appropriate.

The same mesh tally scheme was applied to each source case so the results for each source term could then be summed to produce the final result. A detailed cask model was developed (the work was performed by the cask vendor) and replicated ina 2 by 12 array mimicking the planned arrangement of the loaded canisters on the Catawba ISFSI pad. This represents a full pad of loaded canisters.

Detector locations were laid out on a grid in three dimensions and plots for both near and far field doses were obtained. However, because the coordinate axes align with the cask array orientation, the highest doses are seen along the axes. Thus, for a given distance the highest dose will be found along the x axis, as the long part of the array defines the y axis. The results are as expected for the near and far field doses. Conservatively, the coordinate system was eschewed in the evaluation of the results for 72.104 purposes in favor or the straight line distance to the limiting receptor location (nearest real individual). The nearest real individual is over 450 meters from the ISFSI, but a conservative evaluation distance of 405 meters is adopted. This distance from the ISFSI is within the site boundary. No real individual can live within the (site controlled) boundary, so this distance (location) bounds any real individual (living off-site). As shown in Table 6.7-5 of Reference 7.3-4, the annual dose to the nearest real individual from a full 2 by 12 array of loaded canisters with limiting 20 kW fuel sources and inserts decayed for eight years is 16.6 mrem/yr. The maximum dose at this distance is found, as expected, along

CNS 1 OCFR72.212 Evaluation NAC-UMS Universal Storage System Page 33 of 56 the x axis. This is a conservative application of the shielding analysis results.

The shielding analysis contains many receptor locations, and the results from these cases could be used with a plot of the location of the nearest individual on the shielding model XY coordinates system. This would produce a more precise and lower result.

The computed direct shine dose from the ISFSI to the nearest individual will be added to the plant generated dose to show compliance with 72.104.

General Office Radiation Protection has responsibility for this function.

This information is submitted to the NRC as part of the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report for Catawba.

(b) Operational restrictions must be established to meet as low as is reasonably achievable objectives for radioactive materials in effluents and direct radiation levels associated with ISFSI or MRS operations.

(c) Operational limits must be established for radioactive materials in effluents and direct radiation levels associated with ISFSI or MRS operations to meet the limits given in paragraph (a) of this section.

The requirements are met through implementation of the CNS Radiation Protection Program (References 7.3-1 and 7.3-2).

Groundwater Protection Initiative

2012 Catawba ARERR Groundwater Well Data Section Duke Energy implemented a Ground Water Protection program in 2007. This initiative was developed to ensure timely and effective management of situations involving inadvertent releases of licensed material to ground water. As part of this program, Catawba Nuclear Station monitored forty-six wells in 2012.

Wells are typically sampled quarterly or semi-annually. Ground water samples are regularly analyzed for tritium and gamma emitters, select wells being analyzed for difficult to detect radionuclides. No gamma or difficult to detect radionuclides (other than naturally occurring radionuclides) were identified in well samples during 2012. Results from sampling during 2012 confirmed existing knowledge of tritium concentrations in site ground water.

Results from sampling during 2012 are shown in the table below.

0EMF49 was entered into TSAIL on 12/04/12 and was restored on 12/19/2012. On 12/04/12, Work Request 1075545 was written to investigate why 0EMF49 did not correlate within the procedural acceptance range for the release. It was found that OEMF49 was out of tolerance low. OEMF49 was recalibrated and restored to service on 12/19/12.

  • Work Order 01075545 SLC # from Title Completion Determination and Data Reviewed Table 16.11- Time 7-1 1.a EMF 50 (L) 14 Days 0EMF50(L), out of service time for year 2012 is 137.59 days (1/01/12 to 5/17/12 TSAIL CO-11-01041).

For year 2012, OEMF50 was non-functional from 1/01/2012 to 5/17/12 due to issues associated with correlation of OEMF50 actual reading to expected reading based on sample activity. The start date of the non-functional period extends back to the previous year on 4/07/2011. This was due to C-14 interference in the monitors count rate.

This monitor was restored to functional status after implementation of the new calibration methodologies provided by the vendor General Atomics via a new primary calibration.
