I. INTRODUCTION Technical Specification Section 6.9.1.6 and Appendix B, Part II, Section 5.4.1 require that an annual report be submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission which details the results and findings of ongoing environmental radiological and non-radiological surveillance programs. This report serves to these requirements and represents the Annual Environmental fulfill Operating Report for Units 1 and 2 of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant for the operating period from January 1, 1990 through December 31, 1990. | |||
During 1990, based on the monthly operating reports for Unit 1 and Unit 2, the annual gross electrical generation, average unit service factors and capacity factors were: | |||
Parameter Unit 1 Unit 2 Gross Electrical Generation (MwH) 6,559,000 4,990,730 Unit Service Factor (8) 79.2 55.4 Unit Capacity Factor - MDC* Net (8) 70.5 51.8 | |||
* Maximum Dependable Capacity II. CHANGES TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS There were no Technical Specification changes in 1990. | |||
III. NON-RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONME AL OPERATING REPORT A.l Plant Design and Operation During 1990 no noncompliance with the Environmental Protection Plan occurred, nor were there any changes in station design, operations, tests or experiments which involved a potentially significant unreviewed environmental issue. | |||
No construction activities during the reporting period occurred which required an environmental assessment of the activity. | |||
A.2 Notifications Related to the NPDES and State Certifications Notifications made to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources regarding the NPDES Permit are listed under Nonroutine Reports in Appendix I. | |||
A.3 Environmental Protection Plan There were no Environmental Protection Plan noncompliances in 1990. | |||
A.4 Potentially Significant Unreviewed Environmental Issues There were no changes in station design, operations, tests or experiments which involved a potentially significant unreviewed environmental issue. | |||
No construction activities during the reporting period occurred which required an environmental assessment of the activity. | |||
A.5 NPDES Permit A new permit was issued on September 20, 1990. Also included are letters from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources authorizing the use of Clam-trol for Zebra Mussel control, as well as authorization to continuously discharge chlorine. These documents are in Appendix II. | |||
B. Environmental Monitoring - Herbicide Application Technical Specifications Appendix B, Subsection 5.4.1, states that the Annual Environmental Operating Report shall include: summaries and analyses of the results of the environmental protection activities required by Subsection 4.2 of this Environmental Protection Plan for the report period, including a comparison with preoperational studies, operational controls (as appropriate), and previous nonradiological environmental monitoring reports, and an assessment of the observed impacts of the plant operation on the environment. | |||
Herbicide applications are the only activity to be monitored per Subsection 4.2, and the applications are discussed in Appendix III. There were no preoperational herbicide studies to which comparisons could be made. Herbicide applications are controlled by plant procedure 12THP6020.ENV.104. The observed impacts are also discusse'd in Appendix III. | |||
C. Macrofouler Monitoring and Treatment Macrofouler studies and activities during 1990, are discussed in Appendix IV. | |||
IV. SOLID RADIO C IVE WASTE TR ME SYS EM There were no changes in the Solid Radioactive Waste Treatment System in 1990. | |||
V. DIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM REMP The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program is designed to serve the following purposes (Appendix V): | |||
: l. Establish baseline radiation levels in the environment prior to the Plant's operation. | |||
: 2. Monitor potential critical pathways of radioactive effluent to man. | |||
: 3. Determine radiological impact on the total environment caused by the operation of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant. | |||
A.l, Changes to the REMP The second quarter OFS-6 Thermoluminescent dosimetry (TLD) sample station was located on power pole ¹ B426-70. While collecting TLD's for the second quarter, it was found that the entire pole had been removed. The TLD sample station was relocated to pole ¹ B426-1, 4/10 of a mile east of Holden Road on Snow Road. | |||
A.2 Radiological Impact of Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant Operations This report summarizes the collection and analysis of various environmental sample media in 1990 for the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant. | |||
The various analyses of most sample media suggest that there was no discernable impact of the nuclear plant on the environment. The analysis of air particulate filters, charcoal cartridges, direct radiation by thermoluminescent dosimeters, fish, water, milk and sediments from Lake Michigan, drinking water, and food products, either did not detect any radioactivity or measured only naturally occurring radionuclides at normal background levels. | |||
Tritium, measured at low levels in on-site wells, appears to be the only radionuclide attributable to the plant operations. However, the associated ground water does not provide a direct dose pathway to man. | |||
B. Land Use Census and Well Report The Land Use Census is performed to ensure that significant changes in the areas in the immediate vicinity of the plant site are identified. Any identified changes are evaluated to determine whether modification must be made to the REMP or other related programs. No such changes were identified during the 1990 Land Use Census. | |||
A residential well survey was performed in 1990 to monitor the groundwater aquifer north and south of the Cook Nuclear Plant for radionuclides and to identify wells in the | |||
I-vicinity of the plant used to supply water for human consumption. Communities to the east of the plant were not involved in the well census due to the fact that they are located greater than a mile from the plant center and are upstream of the prevailing east to west groundwater flow. | |||
VI. CONCLUSION Based upon the results of the radiological environmental monitoring program and the radioactive effluent release reports for the 1990 reporting year, it can be concluded that there were no adverse affects to the environment or to the general public due to the operation of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant. | |||

==Dear Mr. Baker:== | |||
Staff of the Surface Water Quality Division of the Michigan Department of Natural Resources has reviewed your August 7, 1990 request for authorization to use Betz Clam-Trol CT Molluscicde (Clam-Trol) to According to your letter, the dose rate will be 15 mg/1 of Clam-Trol added to the intake water for various in-plant usages., With the exception of fire protection, treatment will be accomplished in 12 hours. The residual Clam-Trol would be detoxified with bentonite, prior to final discharge to Lake Michigan. The treatment is to take place on October 8, 1990. | |||
The requested use is authorized with the following conditions: | |||
The final concentration of Clam-Trol in the discharge to Lake Michigan shall not exceed 0.08 mg/1, as a maximum. The concentration of Clam-Trol in the discharge shall be determined by analyses or, if an approved analytical technique is not available, by calculation based on the mass balance through the system. If the detection level is not adequate to determine compliance with the maximum limit, the discharge concentration of Clam-trol shall be less than detectable and the discharge. shall be treated by appropriate detoxification measures. | |||
The Company proposes to use bentonite clay at 30 mg/1 to detoxify the Clam-Trol. Be advised that your current NPDES Permit contains the statement, "The receiving water shall contain no unnatural turbidity, color, oil film, floating solids, foams, settleable solids, or deposits in quantities which are or may become in)urious to any designated use as a result of this discharge." The treatment must be conducted in such a manner to assure compliance with this requirement. | |||
There shall be no discharge of Clam-Trol to the ground. All treated water shall be captured so that it is detoxified prior to discharge to Lake Michigan. | |||

Baker Environmental Affairs Director Indiana Michigan Power Company One Summit Square P.O. Box 60 Fort Wayne, Indiana 46801 | |||
== | ==Dear Mr. Baker:== | ||
This letter is in response to your December 3, 1990 letter requesting authorization to continuously discharge chlorine, as a water treatment additive, to control Zebra Mussels in the essential service water system at the Cook Nuclear Plant, located in Bridgman, Michigan. | |||
The NPDES permit, MI0005827, issued to the Cook Nuclear Plant expired at midnight August 31, 1990. The NPDES permit reissued on September 20, 1990 does not 'take effect until January 1, 1991. Therefore, the expired permit is still in force until that date. | |||
The permit currently in force limits the chlorine discharge time to 30 minutes per day. You have advised us that due to zebra mussel infesta-tion which hreatens the safety of the facility, the plant needs to immediately commence the use of chlorine on a continuous basis. The permit that was issued on September 20, 1990 and which takes affect January 1, 1990 allows for the continuous discharge of chlorine at 0.036 mg/1. | |||
The permit currently in force, Part 'I-A-l.e., contains the authority for the Chief of the Surface Water Quality Division to approve the discharge of water treatment additives: | |||
"In the event the permittee shall require the discharge of water treatment additives in addition to any previously approved by the Chief of the Surface Water Quality Division, the permittee shall notify the Division Chief. Written approval, from the Chief of the Surface Hater Quality Division to discharge such additives at specified levels shall be obtained prior to discharge by the permittee." | |||
el&> ~ | |||
~ ~ | |||
Donald L. Baker December 5, 199 According to your December 3, 1990 letter, the control of Zebra Mussels in the essential ser vice water system. at the Cook Nuclear Plant is, in your Company's judgement, absolutely necessary for the safe operation of the plant. On the basis of that representation, and upon the authority granted me in the current permit, the continuous discharge of chlorine at 0.036 mg/1 is hereby approved. This approval is effective from the date of this letter until January 1, 1991, when the reissued permit takes effect. | |||
The environmental consequences are expected to be the same as those which would result from the continuous discharge of chlorine as authorized in the reissued permit. All conditions regarding chlorination contained in the reissued permit are to be met when continuous chlorination is practiced under authority of this letter. | |||
Failure to do so would void this authorization and subject you to enforcement action for violation of your current permit. | |||
If you have any questions in this matter please contact Mr . Fred Morley at the Plainwell District Office at 616-685-9886, or you may contact me. | |||

APPENDIX IV MACROPOULER MONITORING PROGRAM 1990 | |||
INDIANA MICHIGAN PONER COMPANY Cook Nuclear P3.ant 1990 Zebra Mussel and Asiatic Clam Monitoring and Control Report April 4, 1991 by Eric C. Mallen Since 1982, Cook Nuclear Plant has been utilizing a macrofouler monitoring program to detect the presence of Asiatic Clams (Corbicula fluminea). Isolated finds of Asiatic Clams occurred in May of 1984, December of 1988 and November of 1989, and were summarized in previously submitted annual their extremely sparse population densitv reports. Because of and distribution at the Cook Nuclear Plant and local environs, Asiatic Clams have posed no nperationa3. problems. | |||
In 1990, a program was instituted to detect the presence of Zebra Mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) as well as Asiatic Clams. The discovery of Zebra Mussels on Julv 18, 1990 durinq routine diving inspections and cleaninq o+ the Unit 02 Screenhouse Intake Forebav, prompted further investigation into their population densitv and distribution in the plant's raw water systems. Dives e performed on the east and west sides of the plant's Unit screens and condenser inlet tunnel. Individuals 02'ling inc in sizes o+ 1/4"-1" in lenqth were found in densities of 0.25-0.67 individuals per square vard. The lake intake structures and the limestone rip rap adjacent to these structures were inspected, with only three individuals encountered. No mussels were reported on the breakwaters or beaches at St. Joseph. | |||
On September 13, 1990, plant divers collected sediment samples from the vicinity of the plant intakes, and in front of Traveling Screens 1-7 and 2-1 in the Screenhouse Intake Forebav. A total of three Zebra Mussels were found in the two samples, and no Asiatic Clams were discovered. (See Attachment with these monitoring efforts, control strategies were 01.)'oncurrent evaluated, and a procedure was developed to use Betz Industrial's Clam-Trol, CT-1 to treat the raw water systems. The procedure to apply Clam-Trol to the Plant's raw water systems was performed on~ | |||
October 8-9, 1990. A,1.2% to 100% mortalitv rate was realized, as measured by the placement of Bio-Boxes on the different raw water systems. The resu3.ts of the treatment are summarized in the tables and qraphs in Attachment g2. The Rio-Boxes on svstems which, displaved low mortality rates did not receive the vendor's specified CT-1 residuals of 15 ppm for a duration of 12 hours. | |||
e | |||
1990 Zebra Mussel and Asiatic Clam Monitoring and Control Report From October 9-11, 1990, five water samples vere taken from the Unit N2 Discharge Tunnel and examined for Zebra Mussel larvae. | |||
No veligers were found. (See Attachment Nl.) | |||
On October 12, 1990, the Bio-Monitor installed on the FSW system for the previous six months vas cleaned out. The test substrates and sediment were examined for Zebra Mussels and clams. Two juvenile Zebra Mussels were discovered. | |||
Four fire hydrants, (tvo vithin the protected area and two outside), were flushed and the rinse water sieved on November 15, 1990. No Zebra Mussel or Asiatic Clam adults, juveniles, or shell fragments were detected. C-'reen algae, iron pipinq corrosion products, pebbles, and two snails of the qenus Phvsa were identified in the samples. (See Attachment. Nl.) | |||
Divinq inspections of the Unit Nl intake Forebav vere performed bv Underwater Construction Corp. in November of 1990. | |||
inspections showed increasing numbers of Zebra brussels 1/8"-1/4" growing in densities approachinq 100 individuals per square yard. These appeared to be from this year's crop. Divers continued to report vounq-of-the-vear mussels qroving on trash racks, and travelina screen components as thev were beina removed for refurbishinq. (See Attachment N3.) | |||
Durinq a routine inspection of the Unit Nl West CCW Heat Fxchanger on December 1, 1990, live Zebra Mussels 1/8"-1/2" in size were found attached to the discharge channel and end bell sections of the heat exchanqer. Their density was estimated to be 50 individuals per square yard. | |||
Zebra Mussel sitings have been made at other rav water toward the south end nf Lake Michigan. To date, none users'acilities have been discovered on the breakwaters and beaches of St. | |||
Joseph, MX. | |||
Due to their lov densities and population distribution within the rav water systems, Zebra Mussels and Asiatic Clams have yet to pose operational problems at the Cook Nuclear Plant. A joint plant/corporate task force vas formed in 1990 to develop a Zebra Mussel eradication/control plan. This plan is beinq implemented in 1991. | |||

ATTACHMENT 1 INTRODUCTION Environmental Resources Management, Inc. (ERM) was retained by American Electric Power Service Company (AEP) to undertake a monitoring program for two molluscs that have the potential for fouling the open-cycle cooling system and other water supplie's of the Cook Nuclear Power Plant in Bridgman, Michigan. The monitoring program is required by the U.S. | |||
Nuclear Regulatory Commission as part of the ongoing nonradiological environmental monitoring program at the plant. | |||
The two molluscs are the zebra mussel (Dreissena potymorpha) and the asiatic clam (Corbicula fluminea). Both organisms have established themselves in the Great Lakes. Zebra mussels in particular have colonized much of the hard substrate along the Lake Erie coast, and have fouled the intake structures of power plants and municipal water supplies. | |||
This report presents the results of initial sampling of several water systems in the Cook plant, conducted in October and November 1990. The program was intended to monitor for both veligers (juveniles) and adults. However. | |||
the program was begun late in the year, so comprehensive sampling was not undertaken. A full sampling program is planned for 1991. | |||

~0. | ATTACHMENT 1 METHODS The ERM biofouling monitoring at the Cook Facility in 1990 consisted of three types of sampling efforts: plankton sampling, sediment sampling and fire hydrant sampling. The plankton sampling was undertaken to determine the number of veliger larvae of the zebra mussel present in the forebay area of the power plant. The sediment and fire hydrant sampling were used to monitor the presence of juveniles and adults of both the asiatic clam and the zebra mussel. | ||
All sampling was conducted according to D.C. Cook Nuclear Plant Procedure No. 12 THP 6020 ENV.101 as follows: five plankton samples were collected on 9-11 October 1990 from the intake forebay of Unit 2. The samples were collected by pumping 41 gpm (using a nondestructive diaphragm pump) through a plankton net and collecting the sample in the cod end. Samples were refrigerated (unpreserved) until they were counted on 12 October 1990 in order to be able to identify veligers by their movement patterns. | |||
Samples were sorted and counted by concentrating the volume of the sample down to 75 ml using a 63 pm plankton cup, and counting 5 successive 1.0 ml (or 0.75 ml in one case) aliquots in a Sedgwick-Rafter cell under 100-400x magnifications. This subsampling is the equivalent of examining 0.67 to 7,02 m3 of Lake Michigan water (intake water) for larvae. | |||
Sediment samples were collected by AEP personnel at the bottom of the, intake forebay and near the intakes in Lake Michigan. A biomonitoring chamber (containing cobble-sized stones as an artificial substrate and exposed to flowing water from the essential circulating water systems of the plant) was also sampled for sediment and attached mussels. Sediment samples were placed in a pan and examined under a magnifying lens for juvenile mussels and clams. | |||
Four hydrants were sampled using a No. 35 mesh benthos sieve. A Are hose was connected to each hydrant and directed to a 55-gallon drum. The 55-gallon drum was outfitted with a 3-inch drain pipe/flow meter located approximately 3-inches from the bottom of the drum. The drain pipe was directed to the nearest storm drain. No direct discharge to any other waterways took place, The benthos sieve was placed inside the drum against the drain pipe opening. The sieve was held in place by hand until the force of the draining water held it tight against the walls of the drum. | |||
1-2 | |||
ATTACMMENT 1 Flow rates were controlled at the hydrant and were noted at the flowmeter on the discharge pipe. Initial flows were collected for 10 minutes and ranged from 31 gallons/minute to 95 gallons/minute. A second flush of 5 minutes duration was conducted at the highest rate that could be controlled by personnel handling the hose. The flow rates for this second flush ranged from 94 gallons/minute to 124 gallons/minute. | |||
At the end of each flush the sieve was removed from the drum and any material collected on it was carefully washed into a collection jar. Material collected from the first and second flushes were combined for each location. | |||
Any remaining water and/or debris left in the 55-gallon drum was drained through a 1-inch diameter opening in the bottom of the drum into a sieve placed under the drum. The samples were visually observed at the sampling | |||
'site for the presence of juvenile or adult mussels and clams. The following day, all samples were screened for the presence of adult mussels or clams using a fluorescent magnifying lamp. | |||
1-3 | |||
ATTACHMENT 1 RESULTS Five plankton samples were examined for zebra mussel larvae (see Table 1), | |||
The samples all contained a diverse zooplankton fauna (indicating that the pump/net sampling system was operating efficiently and nondestructively). | |||
However, no zebra mussel larvae were found. | |||
Sediment sample results are presented in Table 2. No, asiatic clams were found in the two sediment samples or the biomonitoring sample. A total of five zebra mussels were found in the three samples, ranging in size from 3 to 21 mm. | |||
Table 3 summarizes the hydrant sampling at each location. No asiatic clams, zebra mussels or fragments were found at any of the sampling locations. The aquatic snail Physa sp. was identified at two locations:12-HYD-ll and 12-HYD-12. The freshwater algae Ctadophora sp. was found at all locations. | |||
Numerous small fragments of what appeared to be corroded iron piping and pebbles were also observed at each location. | |||
1-4 | |||
ATTACHMENT 1 DISCUSSION The sediment and biomonitoring samples indicate that zebra mussels are present in very low abundance in Lake Michigan near the circulating water intake, in the intake forebay, and in the essential water system of the plant. | |||
Also, zebra mussels were not found to be present in the fire protection system. No zebra mussel larvae were detected in the five plankton samples, collected from 0.6 to 7.0 m3 of water from the main circulating water system. It should be noted that the samples were collected in October, when larvae would not be expected to be present in the water column. | |||
Thus, these plankton samples may not give an accurate assessment of the potential abundance of larvae which may be present earlier in the year. | |||
No evidence of asiatic clams was found in any of the plankton, sediment, or hydrant samples. | |||

INDIANAMICHIGAN POWER COMPANY DONALD C. COOK POWER NUCLEAR PLANT RADI L I AL ENVIR NMENTAL M NIT RIN PR This report summarizes the collection and analysis of various environmental sample media in 1990 for the Radiological Environmen-tal Monitoring Program for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear plant. | |||
The various analyses of most sample media suggest that there was no discernable impact of the nuclear plant on the environment. The analysis of air particulate Alters, charcoal cartridges, direct radiation by thermoluminescent dosimeters, fish, water, milk and sediments from Lake Michigan, drinking water, and food products, either did not detect any radioactivity or measured only naturally occurring radionuclides at normal background levels. | |||
Tritium. measured at low levels in on-site wells, appears to be the only radionuclide attributable to the plant operations. However, the associated ground water does not provide a direct dose pathway to man. | |||
I. INTRODUCTION L ~lm'R l3 Tton The Donald C, Cook Nuclear Power Station's Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) is conducted in compliance with NRC Regulatory Guide 1.21 and 4.1, licensing commitments, and Technical SpeciQcations. The REMP was developed in accordance with the NRC Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position (BTP). Rev. 1, November 1979. A synopsis of the sampling program and maps can be found in Section II, Sampling and Analysis Program. This report represents the Annual Environmental Operating Report for Units 1 and 2 of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant for the operating period from January 1, 1990 through December 31, 1990. | |||
A. The Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant of Indiana Michigan Power Company is located on the southeastern shore of Lake Michigan approximately one mile northwest of Bridgman, Michigan. The plant consists of two pressurized water reactors, Unit 1, 1030 hDVE and Unit 2, 1100 MVE. Unit 1 achieved initial criticality on January 18, 1975 and Unit 2 achieved initial criticality on March 10, 1978. | |||
R Objectives The objectives of the operational radiological environmental monitoring program are: | |||
: 1. Identify and measure radiation and radioactivity in the plant environs for the calculation of potential dose to the population. | |||
: 2. Verify the effectiveness of in-plant measures used for controlling the release of radioactive materials. | |||
: 3. Provide reasonable assurance that the predicted doses. based on effiuent data, have not been substantially underestimated and are consistent with applicable standards. | |||
: 4. Comply with regulatory requirements and Station Technical SpeciQcations and provide records to document compliance. | |||

==SUMMARY== | |||
AND DISCUSSION OF 1990 ANALYTICALRESULTS 15 | |||
DI I N F A discussion of the data from the radiological analyses of environmental media collected during the report period is provided in this section. Analyses of samples for 1990 were analyzed by Teledyne Isotopes, Inc. (TI) in Westwood, New Jersey. The procedures and specifications followed at Teledyne Isotopes are in accordance with the Teledyne Isotopes Quality Assurance Manual and are explained fn the Teledyne Isotopes Analytical Procedures. A synopsis of analytical procedures used for the environmental samples are proved in Appendix C. In addition to internal quality control measures performed by Teledyne, the laboratory also participates in the Environmental Protection Agency's Interlaboratory Comparison Program. Participation in this program ensures that independent checks on th'e precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental samples are performed. The results of the EPA Interlaboratory Compartson are provided in Appendix D. | |||
Radiological analyses of environmental media characteristically proach and frequently fall below the detection limits of state-of-the-art easurement methods. Teledyne Isotopes analytical methods meet or exceed the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) requirements given in Table 2 of the USNRC Branch Technical Position of Radiological Monitoring, Revision I. November 1979. | |||
The following is a discussion and summary of the results of the environmental measurements performed during the reporting period. | |||
Comparison is made where possible with radioactivity concentrations measured in the preoperational period of August 19?1 to the initial criticality of Unit 1 on January 12, 1975. A brief summary of the preoperational program is found in Appendix G. | |||
A, Airborne Particul Results of gross beta activities are presented in Table B-1. The measurement of the gross beta activity on the weekly air particulate filters is a good indication of the levels of natural and or manmade 16 | |||

radioactivity in the environment. The average gross beta concentration of the six indicator locations was 0.017 pCi/m3 with a range of individual values between 0.005 and 0.031 pCi/m3. The average gross betaconcentration of the four control locations was 0.018 pCi/m3 with a range between 0.005 and 0.036 pCi/m3. In Trending Graph 1 the monthly average gross beta concentrations for the indicator locations and for the control locations are plotted. The gross beta concentrations in air particulate Alters in 1990 were lower than at the end of the preoperational period when the eQ'ects of the recent atmospheric nuclear tests were being detected. | |||
Air particulate fQters were composited by location on a quarterlry basis asis and were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. Beryllium-7 which. is produced continuously in the upper atmosphere by cosmic radiation was measured in all forty samples. The average concentration for the control locations was 0.075 pCi/m3 and the values ranged from 0.013 to 0.103 pCi/m3. The average concentration for the indicator locations was 0.073 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.041 to 0.100 pCi/m3. These values are typical of beryllium-7 measured at various locations throughout the United States. Naturally occurring potassium-40, probably from dust, was measured in two of the sixteen control quarterly composites with an average concentration of 0.006 pCi/m3 and a range of 0.005 to 0.007 pCi/m3. Potassium-40 was measured in two of the twenty-four indicator quarterly composites with an average concentration of 0.005 pCi/m3 and a range of 0.003 to 0.006 pCi/m3. No other gamma emitting radioactivity was detected. | |||
Charcoal cartridges are installed downstream of the particulate filters and are used to collect airborne radioiodine. The results of the weekly analysis of the charcoal cartridges are presented in Table B-3. | |||
All results were below the lower level of detection with no positive activity detected. | |||
Thermolumines cent dosfmeters (TLDs) measure external radiation exposure from several sources including naturally occurring radionuclides in the air and soQ, radiation from cosmic origin, fallout from atomic weapons testing, potential radioactive airborne releases from the power station and direct radiation &om the power station. | |||
The TLDs record the exposure from all of these potential sources. | |||
The TLDs are deployed quarterly at 27 locations in" the environs of the D. C. Cook Nuclear Plant site. The average value of the readings of the four areas of each dosimeter (calibrated individually after each Geld exposure period for response to a known exposure and for intransit exposure) are presented in Table B-4. Those exposure rates are quite typical of observed rates at many other locations in the country. The average measurement for the 16 control samples was 3.35 mR/standard month and a range of 2.3 to 4.5 mR/standard month. | |||
.The 91 indicator samples had a measurement of 3.51 mR/standard month and a range of 2.3 to 5.1 mR/standard month. The 1990 annual average in the environs of the D. C. Cook plant is at the low range of the exposure rates (1.0 to 2.0 mR/week) measured during the preoperational period. The results of the indicator and control TLDs are in good agreement and are plotted in Trending Graph 2. | |||
W Lake Michigan surface water samples from the condenser circulating water intake and from four shoreline locations. all within 0.5 mile of the two reactors were collected daily and composited monthly for iodine-131 analysis and analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy and composited quarterly for tritium analysis. The results of analyses are shown in Table B-5. No iodine-131 nor gamma emitting isotopes were detected. Tritium was detected in 11 of the 20 samples analyzed with an average concentration of 254 pCi/liter and a range of 170 to 340 pCi/liter. This is slightly lower than the average concentration in 1989 of 261 pCi/liter. During the preoperational period tritium was measured in surface water samples 19 | |||

at concentrations of approximately 400 pCi/liter. Naturally occurrin gamma emitting isotopes were detected by gamma ray spectroscopy. | |||
E. r n W Water samples are collected quarterly from seven wells, all within 1000 meters of the reactors. The samples are analyzed for gamma emitters and for tritium. The results are presented in Table B- | |||
: 6. No gamma emitting isotopes were detected. The on-site wells 4, 5, and 6 had measurable tritium activity throughout 1990 with concentrations of 860, 977 and 583 pCi/liter respectively. These measurements are lower than those detected during 1989 of 2300, 1930, and 1560 pCi/liter. Tritium was measured in five of the six-teen samples at the oK-site locations with an average concentration of 172 pCi/liter and a range of 130 to 230 pCi/liter. The annual concentrations of tritium in the seven weHs are plotted from 1979 through 1990 in Trending Graph 3. | |||
Tritium concentration in wells in the preoperational period were typically about 400 pCi/liter. | |||
F. D Daily samples are collected at the intake of the the puriQcation plants for St. Joseph and Lake Township. The samples at each location are composited biweekly and analyzed for gross beta. iodine-131 to a sensitivity of 1 pCi/liter, and for gamma emitters. On a quarterly basis the samples are composited and analyzed for tritium. | |||
The results of analyses of drinking water samples are shown in Table B-7. | |||
Gross beta activity was measured in all twenty-five samples from the Lake Township intake with an average concentration of 4.1 pCi/liter and a range from 2.7 to 10 pCi/liter. Gross beta activity was measured in all twenty-six samples from the St. Joseph intake with an average concentration of 3.9 pCi/liter and a range from 2.8 to 6.1 | |||

pCi/liter. No gamma emitting isotopes or iodine-131 were detected Tritium was measured in three of the four samples from Lak Township intake with an average concentration of 220 pCi/liter and a range of 190 to 240 pCi/liter. Tritium was measured in one sample from St. Joseph intake with a concentration of 340 pCi/liter. Tritium in drinking water is plotted in Trending Graph 4. | |||
There were no drinking water analyses performed in the preoperational program. | |||
Sediment samples are collected semiannually along the shoreline of Lake Michigan at the same four locations as the surface water samples. The sediment samples are analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy, the results of which are shown in Table B-8. In November one sample was collected from each location L2, L3, L4 and amma ray spectroscopy detected naturally occurring potassium-L5. Gamm 40 and thorium-228 in all the samples. The average potassium-40 concentration was 5985 pCi/kg with a range from 4930 to 7250 pCi/kg. The average thorium-228 concentration was 126 pCi/kg with a range from 70.9 to 171 pCi/kg. All the measured activities of the naturally occurring isotopes were at background levels. Cesium-137, attributed to fallout from previous atmospheric nuclear tests. was detected in three of the eight samples. The average concentration of cesium-137 was 25.1 pCi/kg with a range of 18.5 to 30.1 pCi/kg. That activity level is often observed in soils and sediments. | |||
Milk samples are collected every fourteen days from seven farms located between 4.25 miles and 20 miles from the site. 'Ihe samples are analyzed for iodine-131 and for gamma emitters. The results are shown in Table B-9. Iodine-131 was not measured in any of the 175 samples analyzed. | |||
During the preoperational period potassium-40 was measured in all samples with a range from 520 to 2310 pCi/liter, a range comparable to that in 1990. Iodine-131 was measured in four samples collected soon after an atmospheric nuclear test with concentrations between 0.2 and 0.9 pCi/liter. Cesium-137 was measured in numerous samples after the nuclear test with concentrations between 7 and 64 pCi/liter.. | |||
During 1990 the average potassium-40 concentration for the control locations during was 1293 pCi/liter with a range of 1070 to 1490 pCi/liter. The indicator locations had an average concentration of 1302 pCi/liter and a range of 922 to 1950. There were no detections of iodine-131 or cesium-137 during 1990. | |||
Fish are collected semiannually, when available, from four locations in Lake Michigan in the vicinity of the site and analyzed b gamma ray spectroscopy. Naturally occurring potassium-40 was measured in all samples with an average concentration of 2636 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 684 to 3840 pCi/kg (wet weight). Cesium-137, attributed to previous atmospheric nuclear tests was measured in six of the eight fish samples at an average concentration of 37.8 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 20.3 to 80.1 pCi/kg (wet weight). | |||
Grapes, grape leaves, and broadleaf vegetation are collected annually at harvest time at one on-site location and one off-site location. Naturally occurring potassium-40 was measured in all samples'ith an average concentration of 2402 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 889 to 3700 pCi/kg (wet weight). Cosmogenically produced beryllium-7 was measured in three of the Ave samples with an average concentration of 1650 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 1060 to 2700 pCi/kg (wet weight). | |||

The results were as expected for normal environmental samples. | |||
Naturally occurring radioactivity was observed in sample media in the expected activity ranges. | |||
Occasional samples of a few media showed the presence of man-made isotopes. These have been discussed individually in the text. | |||
Observed activities were at very low concentrations and had no significant dose consequence. Specific examples of sample media with positive analysis results are discussed below. | |||
Air particulate gross beta concentrations of all the indicator locations for 1990 appears to follow the gross beta concentrations at the control locations. The concentration levels are actually lower than during the preoperational period when the infiuence of atmospheric nuclear tests was being detected. Gamma isotopic analysis of the particulate samples identiQed the gamma emitting isotopes as natural products tberyllium-7 and potassium-40). No man-made activity was found in the particulate media during 1990. No iodine-131 was detected in charcoal Qlters fn 1990. | |||
Ther moluminescent dosimeters {TLD) measure external gamma radiation from naturally occurring radionuclides in the air and soil, radiation from cosmic origin and fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons testing, and potential radioactive airborne releases and direct radiation from the power station. The average annual TLD results were at normal background exposure levels. | |||
Surface water samples collected monthly from Qve locations in Lake Michigan were analyzed for iodine, tritium, and gamma emitting isotopes. Only tritium was measured and the concentrations were at normal background levels. | |||
28 | |||
Ground water samples were collected quarterly at seven wells, all within 1000 meters of the reactors. The three wells within 130 meters had measurable tritium which is attributed to the operation of the plant. The tritium levels in 1990 are lower than in 1989. The highest concentration in 1990 was 1750 pCi/liter as compared to 3600 pCi/Uter measured in 1989) The tritium levels in ground water have been plotted for the last decade and indicate decreasing levels of tritium. No gamma emitting isotopes were detected. | |||
Samples are collected daily at the intakes of the drinking puriQcation plants for St. Joseph and Lake Township. Samples composited biweekly are analyzed for iodine-131, gross beta, and for gamma emitting isotopes and analyzed quarterly for tritium. No iodine-131 or gamma emitting isotopes were detected. Gross beta was measured in all Qfty samples at normal background concentrations. | |||
Tritium was measured in four of the eight samples with background levels that were, lower than those measured during 1989. | |||
Sediment samples can be a sensitive indicator of discharges from nuclear power stations. Sediment samples are collected semiannually along the shoreline of Lake Michigan at four locations in close proximity of the reactors. The samples were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. | |||
In 1990 only naturally occurring radionuclides were measured. There is no evidence of station discharges affecting Lake Michigan, either in the sediments or in the water, as previously discussed. | |||
Milk samples were collected every fourteen days from seven farms up to a distance of 20 miles from the site. Me samples were measured for iodine-131 and for gamma emitting isotopes. Although I-131 was measured during 1989 there were no measurements of iodine-131 in milk in 1990. Potassium-40 was measured in all mQk samples at normal background levels. | |||
Fish samples collected in Lake Michigan in the vicinity of the nuclear plant were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. The only gamma emitting isotope measured was cesium-137 which was in very | |||
low concentrations, typical of those found in other parts of the country and which are attributed to previous atmospheric nuclear tests. | |||
Food products. consisting of grapes, grape leaves, and broadleaf vegetation were collected and analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. | |||
The only gamma emitting isotope measured was cesium-137, again attributed to previous atmospheric nuclear tests. | |||
The results of the analyses have been presented. Based on the evidence of the radiological environmental monitoring program the Donald C. Cook nuclear plant appears to be operating within regulatory limits. Tritium in five on-site wells appears to be the only radionuclide which can be directly correlated with the plant. However, the associated ground water does not provide a direct dose pathway to man. | |||

I. INTRODUCTION Technical Specification Section 6.9.1.6 and Appendix B, Part II, Section 5.4.1 require that an annual report be submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission which details the results and findings of ongoing environmental radiological and non-radiological surveillance programs. This report serves to these requirements and represents the Annual Environmental fulfill Operating Report for Units 1 and 2 of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant for the operating period from January 1, 1990 through December 31, 1990.
During 1990, based on the monthly operating reports for Unit 1 and Unit 2, the annual gross electrical generation, average unit service factors and capacity factors were:
Parameter Unit 1 Unit 2 Gross Electrical Generation (MwH) 6,559,000 4,990,730 Unit Service Factor (8) 79.2 55.4 Unit Capacity Factor - MDC* Net (8) 70.5 51.8
- Maximum Dependable Capacity II. CHANGES TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS There were no Technical Specification changes in 1990.
III. NON-RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONME AL OPERATING REPORT A.l Plant Design and Operation During 1990 no noncompliance with the Environmental Protection Plan occurred, nor were there any changes in station design, operations, tests or experiments which involved a potentially significant unreviewed environmental issue.
No construction activities during the reporting period occurred which required an environmental assessment of the activity.
A.2 Notifications Related to the NPDES and State Certifications Notifications made to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources regarding the NPDES Permit are listed under Nonroutine Reports in Appendix I.
A.3 Environmental Protection Plan There were no Environmental Protection Plan noncompliances in 1990.
A.4 Potentially Significant Unreviewed Environmental Issues There were no changes in station design, operations, tests or experiments which involved a potentially significant unreviewed environmental issue.
No construction activities during the reporting period occurred which required an environmental assessment of the activity.
A.5 NPDES Permit A new permit was issued on September 20, 1990. Also included are letters from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources authorizing the use of Clam-trol for Zebra Mussel control, as well as authorization to continuously discharge chlorine. These documents are in Appendix II.
B. Environmental Monitoring - Herbicide Application Technical Specifications Appendix B, Subsection 5.4.1, states that the Annual Environmental Operating Report shall include: summaries and analyses of the results of the environmental protection activities required by Subsection 4.2 of this Environmental Protection Plan for the report period, including a comparison with preoperational studies, operational controls (as appropriate), and previous nonradiological environmental monitoring reports, and an assessment of the observed impacts of the plant operation on the environment.
Herbicide applications are the only activity to be monitored per Subsection 4.2, and the applications are discussed in Appendix III. There were no preoperational herbicide studies to which comparisons could be made. Herbicide applications are controlled by plant procedure 12THP6020.ENV.104. The observed impacts are also discusse'd in Appendix III.
C. Macrofouler Monitoring and Treatment Macrofouler studies and activities during 1990, are discussed in Appendix IV.
IV. SOLID RADIO C IVE WASTE TR ME SYS EM There were no changes in the Solid Radioactive Waste Treatment System in 1990.
V. DIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM REMP The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program is designed to serve the following purposes (Appendix V):
- l. Establish baseline radiation levels in the environment prior to the Plant's operation.
- 2. Monitor potential critical pathways of radioactive effluent to man.
- 3. Determine radiological impact on the total environment caused by the operation of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant.
A.l, Changes to the REMP The second quarter OFS-6 Thermoluminescent dosimetry (TLD) sample station was located on power pole ¹ B426-70. While collecting TLD's for the second quarter, it was found that the entire pole had been removed. The TLD sample station was relocated to pole ¹ B426-1, 4/10 of a mile east of Holden Road on Snow Road.
A.2 Radiological Impact of Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant Operations This report summarizes the collection and analysis of various environmental sample media in 1990 for the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant.
The various analyses of most sample media suggest that there was no discernable impact of the nuclear plant on the environment. The analysis of air particulate filters, charcoal cartridges, direct radiation by thermoluminescent dosimeters, fish, water, milk and sediments from Lake Michigan, drinking water, and food products, either did not detect any radioactivity or measured only naturally occurring radionuclides at normal background levels.
Tritium, measured at low levels in on-site wells, appears to be the only radionuclide attributable to the plant operations. However, the associated ground water does not provide a direct dose pathway to man.
B. Land Use Census and Well Report The Land Use Census is performed to ensure that significant changes in the areas in the immediate vicinity of the plant site are identified. Any identified changes are evaluated to determine whether modification must be made to the REMP or other related programs. No such changes were identified during the 1990 Land Use Census.
A residential well survey was performed in 1990 to monitor the groundwater aquifer north and south of the Cook Nuclear Plant for radionuclides and to identify wells in the
I-vicinity of the plant used to supply water for human consumption. Communities to the east of the plant were not involved in the well census due to the fact that they are located greater than a mile from the plant center and are upstream of the prevailing east to west groundwater flow.
VI. CONCLUSION Based upon the results of the radiological environmental monitoring program and the radioactive effluent release reports for the 1990 reporting year, it can be concluded that there were no adverse affects to the environment or to the general public due to the operation of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant.

Dear Mr. Baker:
Staff of the Surface Water Quality Division of the Michigan Department of Natural Resources has reviewed your August 7, 1990 request for authorization to use Betz Clam-Trol CT Molluscicde (Clam-Trol) to According to your letter, the dose rate will be 15 mg/1 of Clam-Trol added to the intake water for various in-plant usages., With the exception of fire protection, treatment will be accomplished in 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />. The residual Clam-Trol would be detoxified with bentonite, prior to final discharge to Lake Michigan. The treatment is to take place on October 8, 1990.
The requested use is authorized with the following conditions:
The final concentration of Clam-Trol in the discharge to Lake Michigan shall not exceed 0.08 mg/1, as a maximum. The concentration of Clam-Trol in the discharge shall be determined by analyses or, if an approved analytical technique is not available, by calculation based on the mass balance through the system. If the detection level is not adequate to determine compliance with the maximum limit, the discharge concentration of Clam-trol shall be less than detectable and the discharge. shall be treated by appropriate detoxification measures.
The Company proposes to use bentonite clay at 30 mg/1 to detoxify the Clam-Trol. Be advised that your current NPDES Permit contains the statement, "The receiving water shall contain no unnatural turbidity, color, oil film, floating solids, foams, settleable solids, or deposits in quantities which are or may become in)urious to any designated use as a result of this discharge." The treatment must be conducted in such a manner to assure compliance with this requirement.
There shall be no discharge of Clam-Trol to the ground. All treated water shall be captured so that it is detoxified prior to discharge to Lake Michigan.

Dear Mr. Baker:
This letter is in response to your December 3, 1990 letter requesting authorization to continuously discharge chlorine, as a water treatment additive, to control Zebra Mussels in the essential service water system at the Cook Nuclear Plant, located in Bridgman, Michigan.
The NPDES permit, MI0005827, issued to the Cook Nuclear Plant expired at midnight August 31, 1990. The NPDES permit reissued on September 20, 1990 does not 'take effect until January 1, 1991. Therefore, the expired permit is still in force until that date.
The permit currently in force limits the chlorine discharge time to 30 minutes per day. You have advised us that due to zebra mussel infesta-tion which hreatens the safety of the facility, the plant needs to immediately commence the use of chlorine on a continuous basis. The permit that was issued on September 20, 1990 and which takes affect January 1, 1990 allows for the continuous discharge of chlorine at 0.036 mg/1.
The permit currently in force, Part 'I-A-l.e., contains the authority for the Chief of the Surface Water Quality Division to approve the discharge of water treatment additives:
"In the event the permittee shall require the discharge of water treatment additives in addition to any previously approved by the Chief of the Surface Water Quality Division, the permittee shall notify the Division Chief. Written approval, from the Chief of the Surface Hater Quality Division to discharge such additives at specified levels shall be obtained prior to discharge by the permittee."

Donald L. Baker December 5, 199 According to your December 3, 1990 letter, the control of Zebra Mussels in the essential ser vice water system. at the Cook Nuclear Plant is, in your Company's judgement, absolutely necessary for the safe operation of the plant. On the basis of that representation, and upon the authority granted me in the current permit, the continuous discharge of chlorine at 0.036 mg/1 is hereby approved. This approval is effective from the date of this letter until January 1, 1991, when the reissued permit takes effect.
The environmental consequences are expected to be the same as those which would result from the continuous discharge of chlorine as authorized in the reissued permit. All conditions regarding chlorination contained in the reissued permit are to be met when continuous chlorination is practiced under authority of this letter.
Failure to do so would void this authorization and subject you to enforcement action for violation of your current permit.
If you have any questions in this matter please contact Mr . Fred Morley at the Plainwell District Office at 616-685-9886, or you may contact me.

APPENDIX IV MACROPOULER MONITORING PROGRAM 1990
INDIANA MICHIGAN PONER COMPANY Cook Nuclear P3.ant 1990 Zebra Mussel and Asiatic Clam Monitoring and Control Report April 4, 1991 by Eric C. Mallen Since 1982, Cook Nuclear Plant has been utilizing a macrofouler monitoring program to detect the presence of Asiatic Clams (Corbicula fluminea). Isolated finds of Asiatic Clams occurred in May of 1984, December of 1988 and November of 1989, and were summarized in previously submitted annual their extremely sparse population densitv reports. Because of and distribution at the Cook Nuclear Plant and local environs, Asiatic Clams have posed no nperationa3. problems.
In 1990, a program was instituted to detect the presence of Zebra Mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) as well as Asiatic Clams. The discovery of Zebra Mussels on Julv 18, 1990 durinq routine diving inspections and cleaninq o+ the Unit 02 Screenhouse Intake Forebav, prompted further investigation into their population densitv and distribution in the plant's raw water systems. Dives e performed on the east and west sides of the plant's Unit screens and condenser inlet tunnel. Individuals 02'ling inc in sizes o+ 1/4"-1" in lenqth were found in densities of 0.25-0.67 individuals per square vard. The lake intake structures and the limestone rip rap adjacent to these structures were inspected, with only three individuals encountered. No mussels were reported on the breakwaters or beaches at St. Joseph.
On September 13, 1990, plant divers collected sediment samples from the vicinity of the plant intakes, and in front of Traveling Screens 1-7 and 2-1 in the Screenhouse Intake Forebav. A total of three Zebra Mussels were found in the two samples, and no Asiatic Clams were discovered. (See Attachment with these monitoring efforts, control strategies were 01.)'oncurrent evaluated, and a procedure was developed to use Betz Industrial's Clam-Trol, CT-1 to treat the raw water systems. The procedure to apply Clam-Trol to the Plant's raw water systems was performed on~
October 8-9, 1990. A,1.2% to 100% mortalitv rate was realized, as measured by the placement of Bio-Boxes on the different raw water systems. The resu3.ts of the treatment are summarized in the tables and qraphs in Attachment g2.

1990 Zebra Mussel and Asiatic Clam Monitoring and Control Report From October 9-11, 1990, five water samples vere taken from the Unit N2 Discharge Tunnel and examined for Zebra Mussel larvae.
No veligers were found. (See Attachment Nl.)
On October 12, 1990, the Bio-Monitor installed on the FSW system for the previous six months vas cleaned out. The test substrates and sediment were examined for Zebra Mussels and clams. Two juvenile Zebra Mussels were discovered.
Four fire hydrants, (tvo vithin the protected area and two outside), were flushed and the rinse water sieved on November 15, 1990. No Zebra Mussel or Asiatic Clam adults, juveniles, or shell fragments were detected. C-'reen algae, iron pipinq corrosion products, pebbles, and two snails of the qenus Phvsa were identified in the samples. (See Attachment. Nl.)
Divinq inspections of the Unit Nl intake Forebav vere performed bv Underwater Construction Corp. in November of 1990.
inspections showed increasing numbers of Zebra brussels 1/8"-1/4" growing in densities approachinq 100 individuals per square yard. These appeared to be from this year's crop. Divers continued to report vounq-of-the-vear mussels qroving on trash racks, and travelina screen components as thev were beina removed for refurbishinq. (See Attachment N3.)
Durinq a routine inspection of the Unit Nl West CCW Heat Fxchanger on December 1, 1990, live Zebra Mussels 1/8"-1/2" in size were found attached to the discharge channel and end bell sections of the heat exchanqer. Their density was estimated to be 50 individuals per square yard.
Zebra Mussel sitings have been made at other rav water toward the south end nf Lake Michigan. To date, none users'acilities have been discovered on the breakwaters and beaches of St.
Joseph, MX.
Due to their lov densities and population distribution within the rav water systems, Zebra Mussels and Asiatic Clams have yet to pose operational problems at the Cook Nuclear Plant. A joint plant/corporate task force vas formed in 1990 to develop a Zebra Mussel eradication/control plan. This plan is beinq implemented in 1991.

ATTACHMENT 1 INTRODUCTION Environmental Resources Management, Inc. (ERM) was retained by American Electric Power Service Company (AEP) to undertake a monitoring program for two molluscs that have the potential for fouling the open-cycle cooling system and other water supplie's of the Cook Nuclear Power Plant in Bridgman, Michigan. The monitoring program is required by the U.S.
Nuclear Regulatory Commission as part of the ongoing nonradiological environmental monitoring program at the plant.
The two molluscs are the zebra mussel (Dreissena potymorpha) and the asiatic clam (Corbicula fluminea). Both organisms have established themselves in the Great Lakes. Zebra mussels in particular have colonized much of the hard substrate along the Lake Erie coast, and have fouled the intake structures of power plants and municipal water supplies.
This report presents the results of initial sampling of several water systems in the Cook plant, conducted in October and November 1990. The program was intended to monitor for both veligers (juveniles) and adults. However.
the program was begun late in the year, so comprehensive sampling was not undertaken. A full sampling program is planned for 1991.
1-1
ATTACHMENT 1 METHODS The ERM biofouling monitoring at the Cook Facility in 1990 consisted of three types of sampling efforts: plankton sampling, sediment sampling and fire hydrant sampling. The plankton sampling was undertaken to determine the number of veliger larvae of the zebra mussel present in the forebay area of the power plant. The sediment and fire hydrant sampling were used to monitor the presence of juveniles and adults of both the asiatic clam and the zebra mussel.
All sampling was conducted according to D.C. Cook Nuclear Plant Procedure No. 12 THP 6020 ENV.101 as follows: five plankton samples were collected on 9-11 October 1990 from the intake forebay of Unit 2. The samples were collected by pumping 41 gpm (using a nondestructive diaphragm pump) through a plankton net and collecting the sample in the cod end. Samples were refrigerated (unpreserved) until they were counted on 12 October 1990 in order to be able to identify veligers by their movement patterns.
Samples were sorted and counted by concentrating the volume of the sample down to 75 ml using a 63 pm plankton cup, and counting 5 successive 1.0 ml (or 0.75 ml in one case) aliquots in a Sedgwick-Rafter cell under 100-400x magnifications. This subsampling is the equivalent of examining 0.67 to 7,02 m3 of Lake Michigan water (intake water) for larvae.
Sediment samples were collected by AEP personnel at the bottom of the, intake forebay and near the intakes in Lake Michigan. A biomonitoring chamber (containing cobble-sized stones as an artificial substrate and exposed to flowing water from the essential circulating water systems of the plant) was also sampled for sediment and attached mussels. Sediment samples were placed in a pan and examined under a magnifying lens for juvenile mussels and clams.
Four hydrants were sampled using a No. 35 mesh benthos sieve. A Are hose was connected to each hydrant and directed to a 55-gallon drum. The 55-gallon drum was outfitted with a 3-inch drain pipe/flow meter located approximately 3-inches from the bottom of the drum. The drain pipe was directed to the nearest storm drain. No direct discharge to any other waterways took place, The benthos sieve was placed inside the drum against the drain pipe opening. The sieve was held in place by hand until the force of the draining water held it tight against the walls of the drum.
1-2
ATTACMMENT 1 Flow rates were controlled at the hydrant and were noted at the flowmeter on the discharge pipe. Initial flows were collected for 10 minutes and ranged from 31 gallons/minute to 95 gallons/minute. A second flush of 5 minutes duration was conducted at the highest rate that could be controlled by personnel handling the hose. The flow rates for this second flush ranged from 94 gallons/minute to 124 gallons/minute.
At the end of each flush the sieve was removed from the drum and any material collected on it was carefully washed into a collection jar. Material collected from the first and second flushes were combined for each location.
Any remaining water and/or debris left in the 55-gallon drum was drained through a 1-inch diameter opening in the bottom of the drum into a sieve placed under the drum. The samples were visually observed at the sampling
'site for the presence of juvenile or adult mussels and clams. The following day, all samples were screened for the presence of adult mussels or clams using a fluorescent magnifying lamp.
1-3
ATTACHMENT 1 RESULTS Five plankton samples were examined for zebra mussel larvae (see Table 1),
The samples all contained a diverse zooplankton fauna (indicating that the pump/net sampling system was operating efficiently and nondestructively).
However, no zebra mussel larvae were found.
Sediment sample results are presented in Table 2. No, asiatic clams were found in the two sediment samples or the biomonitoring sample. A total of five zebra mussels were found in the three samples, ranging in size from 3 to 21 mm.
Table 3 summarizes the hydrant sampling at each location. No asiatic clams, zebra mussels or fragments were found at any of the sampling locations. The aquatic snail Physa sp. was identified at two locations:12-HYD-ll and 12-HYD-12. The freshwater algae Ctadophora sp. was found at all locations.
Numerous small fragments of what appeared to be corroded iron piping and pebbles were also observed at each location.
1-4
ATTACHMENT 1 DISCUSSION The sediment and biomonitoring samples indicate that zebra mussels are present in very low abundance in Lake Michigan near the circulating water intake, in the intake forebay, and in the essential water system of the plant.
Also, zebra mussels were not found to be present in the fire protection system. No zebra mussel larvae were detected in the five plankton samples, collected from 0.6 to 7.0 m3 of water from the main circulating water system. It should be noted that the samples were collected in October, when larvae would not be expected to be present in the water column.
Thus, these plankton samples may not give an accurate assessment of the potential abundance of larvae which may be present earlier in the year.
No evidence of asiatic clams was found in any of the plankton, sediment, or hydrant samples.

SUMMARY
INDIANAMICHIGAN POWER COMPANY DONALD C. COOK POWER NUCLEAR PLANT RADI L I AL ENVIR NMENTAL M NIT RIN PR This report summarizes the collection and analysis of various environmental sample media in 1990 for the Radiological Environmen-tal Monitoring Program for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear plant.
The various analyses of most sample media suggest that there was no discernable impact of the nuclear plant on the environment. The analysis of air particulate Alters, charcoal cartridges, direct radiation by thermoluminescent dosimeters, fish, water, milk and sediments from Lake Michigan, drinking water, and food products, either did not detect any radioactivity or measured only naturally occurring radionuclides at normal background levels.
Tritium. measured at low levels in on-site wells, appears to be the only radionuclide attributable to the plant operations. However, the associated ground water does not provide a direct dose pathway to man.
I. INTRODUCTION L ~lm'R l3 Tton The Donald C, Cook Nuclear Power Station's Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) is conducted in compliance with NRC Regulatory Guide 1.21 and 4.1, licensing commitments, and Technical SpeciQcations. The REMP was developed in accordance with the NRC Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position (BTP). Rev. 1, November 1979. A synopsis of the sampling program and maps can be found in Section II, Sampling and Analysis Program. This report represents the Annual Environmental Operating Report for Units 1 and 2 of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant for the operating period from January 1, 1990 through December 31, 1990.
A. The Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant of Indiana Michigan Power Company is located on the southeastern shore of Lake Michigan approximately one mile northwest of Bridgman, Michigan. The plant consists of two pressurized water reactors, Unit 1, 1030 hDVE and Unit 2, 1100 MVE. Unit 1 achieved initial criticality on January 18, 1975 and Unit 2 achieved initial criticality on March 10, 1978.
R Objectives The objectives of the operational radiological environmental monitoring program are:
- 1. Identify and measure radiation and radioactivity in the plant environs for the calculation of potential dose to the population.
- 2. Verify the effectiveness of in-plant measures used for controlling the release of radioactive materials.
- 3. Provide reasonable assurance that the predicted doses. based on effiuent data, have not been substantially underestimated and are consistent with applicable standards.
- 4. Comply with regulatory requirements and Station Technical SpeciQcations and provide records to document compliance.
II. SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM II. SAMPLIN AND ANALY I PR RAM Table I summarizes the sampling and analysis program for the Donald C. Cook nuclear plant for l990. For each sample medium, the table lists the sample locations, including distance and direction from the center of the bvo units, and the station identiQcation. The station identifications for man of the sampling locations are shown on the maps, Figures 1, 2, and 3.

SUMMARY
AND DISCUSSION OF 1990 ANALYTICALRESULTS 15
DI I N F A discussion of the data from the radiological analyses of environmental media collected during the report period is provided in this section. Analyses of samples for 1990 were analyzed by Teledyne Isotopes, Inc. (TI) in Westwood, New Jersey. The procedures and specifications followed at Teledyne Isotopes are in accordance with the Teledyne Isotopes Quality Assurance Manual and are explained fn the Teledyne Isotopes Analytical Procedures. A synopsis of analytical procedures used for the environmental samples are proved in Appendix C. In addition to internal quality control measures performed by Teledyne, the laboratory also participates in the Environmental Protection Agency's Interlaboratory Comparison Program. Participation in this program ensures that independent checks on th'e precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental samples are performed. The results of the EPA Interlaboratory Compartson are provided in Appendix D.
Radiological analyses of environmental media characteristically proach and frequently fall below the detection limits of state-of-the-art easurement methods. Teledyne Isotopes analytical methods meet or exceed the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) requirements given in Table 2 of the USNRC Branch Technical Position of Radiological Monitoring, Revision I. November 1979.
The following is a discussion and summary of the results of the environmental measurements performed during the reporting period.
Comparison is made where possible with radioactivity concentrations measured in the preoperational period of August 19?1 to the initial criticality of Unit 1 on January 12, 1975. A brief summary of the preoperational program is found in Appendix G.
A, Airborne Particul Results of gross beta activities are presented in Table B-1. The measurement of the gross beta activity on the weekly air particulate filters is a good indication of the levels of natural and or manmade 16

radioactivity in the environment. The average gross beta concentration of the six indicator locations was 0.017 pCi/m3 with a range of individual values between 0.005 and 0.031 pCi/m3. The average gross betaconcentration of the four control locations was 0.018 pCi/m3 with a range between 0.005 and 0.036 pCi/m3. In Trending Graph 1 the monthly average gross beta concentrations for the indicator locations and for the control locations are plotted. The gross beta concentrations in air particulate Alters in 1990 were lower than at the end of the preoperational period when the eQ'ects of the recent atmospheric nuclear tests were being detected.
Air particulate fQters were composited by location on a quarterlry basis asis and were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. Beryllium-7 which. is produced continuously in the upper atmosphere by cosmic radiation was measured in all forty samples. The average concentration for the control locations was 0.075 pCi/m3 and the values ranged from 0.013 to 0.103 pCi/m3. The average concentration for the indicator locations was 0.073 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.041 to 0.100 pCi/m3. These values are typical of beryllium-7 measured at various locations throughout the United States. Naturally occurring potassium-40, probably from dust, was measured in two of the sixteen control quarterly composites with an average concentration of 0.006 pCi/m3 and a range of 0.005 to 0.007 pCi/m3. Potassium-40 was measured in two of the twenty-four indicator quarterly composites with an average concentration of 0.005 pCi/m3 and a range of 0.003 to 0.006 pCi/m3. No other gamma emitting radioactivity was detected.
Charcoal cartridges are installed downstream of the particulate filters and are used to collect airborne radioiodine. The results of the weekly analysis of the charcoal cartridges are presented in Table B-3.
All results were below the lower level of detection with no positive activity detected.
Thermolumines cent dosfmeters (TLDs) measure external radiation exposure from several sources including naturally occurring radionuclides in the air and soQ, radiation from cosmic origin, fallout from atomic weapons testing, potential radioactive airborne releases from the power station and direct radiation &om the power station.
The TLDs record the exposure from all of these potential sources.
The TLDs are deployed quarterly at 27 locations in" the environs of the D. C. Cook Nuclear Plant site. The average value of the readings of the four areas of each dosimeter (calibrated individually after each Geld exposure period for response to a known exposure and for intransit exposure) are presented in Table B-4. Those exposure rates are quite typical of observed rates at many other locations in the country. The average measurement for the 16 control samples was 3.35 mR/standard month and a range of 2.3 to 4.5 mR/standard month.
.The 91 indicator samples had a measurement of 3.51 mR/standard month and a range of 2.3 to 5.1 mR/standard month. The 1990 annual average in the environs of the D. C. Cook plant is at the low range of the exposure rates (1.0 to 2.0 mR/week) measured during the preoperational period. The results of the indicator and control TLDs are in good agreement and are plotted in Trending Graph 2.
W Lake Michigan surface water samples from the condenser circulating water intake and from four shoreline locations. all within 0.5 mile of the two reactors were collected daily and composited monthly for iodine-131 analysis and analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy and composited quarterly for tritium analysis. The results of analyses are shown in Table B-5. No iodine-131 nor gamma emitting isotopes were detected. Tritium was detected in 11 of the 20 samples analyzed with an average concentration of 254 pCi/liter and a range of 170 to 340 pCi/liter. This is slightly lower than the average concentration in 1989 of 261 pCi/liter. During the preoperational period tritium was measured in surface water samples 19

at concentrations of approximately 400 pCi/liter. Naturally occurrin gamma emitting isotopes were detected by gamma ray spectroscopy.
E. r n W Water samples are collected quarterly from seven wells, all within 1000 meters of the reactors. The samples are analyzed for gamma emitters and for tritium. The results are presented in Table B-
- 6. No gamma emitting isotopes were detected. The on-site wells 4, 5, and 6 had measurable tritium activity throughout 1990 with concentrations of 860, 977 and 583 pCi/liter respectively. These measurements are lower than those detected during 1989 of 2300, 1930, and 1560 pCi/liter. Tritium was measured in five of the six-teen samples at the oK-site locations with an average concentration of 172 pCi/liter and a range of 130 to 230 pCi/liter. The annual concentrations of tritium in the seven weHs are plotted from 1979 through 1990 in Trending Graph 3.
Tritium concentration in wells in the preoperational period were typically about 400 pCi/liter.
F. D Daily samples are collected at the intake of the the puriQcation plants for St. Joseph and Lake Township. The samples at each location are composited biweekly and analyzed for gross beta. iodine-131 to a sensitivity of 1 pCi/liter, and for gamma emitters. On a quarterly basis the samples are composited and analyzed for tritium.
The results of analyses of drinking water samples are shown in Table B-7.
Gross beta activity was measured in all twenty-five samples from the Lake Township intake with an average concentration of 4.1 pCi/liter and a range from 2.7 to 10 pCi/liter. Gross beta activity was measured in all twenty-six samples from the St. Joseph intake with an average concentration of 3.9 pCi/liter and a range from 2.8 to 6.1

pCi/liter. No gamma emitting isotopes or iodine-131 were detected Tritium was measured in three of the four samples from Lak Township intake with an average concentration of 220 pCi/liter and a range of 190 to 240 pCi/liter. Tritium was measured in one sample from St. Joseph intake with a concentration of 340 pCi/liter. Tritium in drinking water is plotted in Trending Graph 4.
There were no drinking water analyses performed in the preoperational program.
Sediment samples are collected semiannually along the shoreline of Lake Michigan at the same four locations as the surface water samples. The sediment samples are analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy, the results of which are shown in Table B-8. In November one sample was collected from each location L2, L3, L4 and amma ray spectroscopy detected naturally occurring potassium-L5. Gamm 40 and thorium-228 in all the samples. The average potassium-40 concentration was 5985 pCi/kg with a range from 4930 to 7250 pCi/kg. The average thorium-228 concentration was 126 pCi/kg with a range from 70.9 to 171 pCi/kg. All the measured activities of the naturally occurring isotopes were at background levels. Cesium-137, attributed to fallout from previous atmospheric nuclear tests. was detected in three of the eight samples. The average concentration of cesium-137 was 25.1 pCi/kg with a range of 18.5 to 30.1 pCi/kg. That activity level is often observed in soils and sediments.
Milk samples are collected every fourteen days from seven farms located between 4.25 miles and 20 miles from the site. 'Ihe samples are analyzed for iodine-131 and for gamma emitters. The results are shown in Table B-9. Iodine-131 was not measured in any of the 175 samples analyzed.
During the preoperational period potassium-40 was measured in all samples with a range from 520 to 2310 pCi/liter, a range comparable to that in 1990. Iodine-131 was measured in four samples collected soon after an atmospheric nuclear test with concentrations between 0.2 and 0.9 pCi/liter. Cesium-137 was measured in numerous samples after the nuclear test with concentrations between 7 and 64 pCi/liter..
During 1990 the average potassium-40 concentration for the control locations during was 1293 pCi/liter with a range of 1070 to 1490 pCi/liter. The indicator locations had an average concentration of 1302 pCi/liter and a range of 922 to 1950. There were no detections of iodine-131 or cesium-137 during 1990.
Fish are collected semiannually, when available, from four locations in Lake Michigan in the vicinity of the site and analyzed b gamma ray spectroscopy. Naturally occurring potassium-40 was measured in all samples with an average concentration of 2636 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 684 to 3840 pCi/kg (wet weight). Cesium-137, attributed to previous atmospheric nuclear tests was measured in six of the eight fish samples at an average concentration of 37.8 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 20.3 to 80.1 pCi/kg (wet weight).
Grapes, grape leaves, and broadleaf vegetation are collected annually at harvest time at one on-site location and one off-site location. Naturally occurring potassium-40 was measured in all samples'ith an average concentration of 2402 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 889 to 3700 pCi/kg (wet weight). Cosmogenically produced beryllium-7 was measured in three of the Ave samples with an average concentration of 1650 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 1060 to 2700 pCi/kg (wet weight).

IV. CONCLUSIONS 27
The results of the 1990 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant have been presented.
The results were as expected for normal environmental samples.
Naturally occurring radioactivity was observed in sample media in the expected activity ranges.
Occasional samples of a few media showed the presence of man-made isotopes. These have been discussed individually in the text.
Observed activities were at very low concentrations and had no significant dose consequence. Specific examples of sample media with positive analysis results are discussed below.
Air particulate gross beta concentrations of all the indicator locations for 1990 appears to follow the gross beta concentrations at the control locations. The concentration levels are actually lower than during the preoperational period when the infiuence of atmospheric nuclear tests was being detected. Gamma isotopic analysis of the particulate samples identiQed the gamma emitting isotopes as natural products tberyllium-7 and potassium-40). No man-made activity was found in the particulate media during 1990. No iodine-131 was detected in charcoal Qlters fn 1990.
Ther moluminescent dosimeters {TLD) measure external gamma radiation from naturally occurring radionuclides in the air and soil, radiation from cosmic origin and fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons testing, and potential radioactive airborne releases and direct radiation from the power station. The average annual TLD results were at normal background exposure levels.
Surface water samples collected monthly from Qve locations in Lake Michigan were analyzed for iodine, tritium, and gamma emitting isotopes. Only tritium was measured and the concentrations were at normal background levels.
28
Ground water samples were collected quarterly at seven wells, all within 1000 meters of the reactors. The three wells within 130 meters had measurable tritium which is attributed to the operation of the plant. The tritium levels in 1990 are lower than in 1989. The highest concentration in 1990 was 1750 pCi/liter as compared to 3600 pCi/Uter measured in 1989) The tritium levels in ground water have been plotted for the last decade and indicate decreasing levels of tritium. No gamma emitting isotopes were detected.
Samples are collected daily at the intakes of the drinking puriQcation plants for St. Joseph and Lake Township. Samples composited biweekly are analyzed for iodine-131, gross beta, and for gamma emitting isotopes and analyzed quarterly for tritium. No iodine-131 or gamma emitting isotopes were detected. Gross beta was measured in all Qfty samples at normal background concentrations.
Tritium was measured in four of the eight samples with background levels that were, lower than those measured during 1989.
Sediment samples can be a sensitive indicator of discharges from nuclear power stations. Sediment samples are collected semiannually along the shoreline of Lake Michigan at four locations in close proximity of the reactors. The samples were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy.
In 1990 only naturally occurring radionuclides were measured. There is no evidence of station discharges affecting Lake Michigan, either in the sediments or in the water, as previously discussed.
Milk samples were collected every fourteen days from seven farms up to a distance of 20 miles from the site. Me samples were measured for iodine-131 and for gamma emitting isotopes. Although I-131 was measured during 1989 there were no measurements of iodine-131 in milk in 1990. Potassium-40 was measured in all mQk samples at normal background levels.
Fish samples collected in Lake Michigan in the vicinity of the nuclear plant were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. The only gamma emitting isotope measured was cesium-137 which was in very
low concentrations, typical of those found in other parts of the country and which are attributed to previous atmospheric nuclear tests.
Food products. consisting of grapes, grape leaves, and broadleaf vegetation were collected and analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy.
The only gamma emitting isotope measured was cesium-137, again attributed to previous atmospheric nuclear tests.
The results of the analyses have been presented. Based on the evidence of the radiological environmental monitoring program the Donald C. Cook nuclear plant appears to be operating within regulatory limits. Tritium in five on-site wells appears to be the only radionuclide which can be directly correlated with the plant. However, the associated ground water does not provide a direct dose pathway to man.

APPENDIX C ANALYTICALPROCEDURES SYNOPSIS 65
DETERMINATIONOF GROSS BETA ACTIVFIT'NWATER SAMPLES I0. ~IN I'N D TI N The procedures described in this section are used to measure the overall radioactivity of water samples without identifying the radioactive species present. No chemical separation techniques are involved.
One liter of the sample is evaporated on a hot plate. A smaller volume may be used if the sample has a significant salt content as measured by a conductivity meter. If requested by the customer, the sample is filtered through No. 54 filter paper before evaporation, removing particles greater than 30 microns in size.
After evaporating to a small volume in a beaker, the sample is rinsed into a 2-inch dihmeter stainless steel planchet which is stamped with a concentric ring pattern to distribute residue evenly. Final evaporation to dryness takes place under heat lamps.
Residue mass is determined by weighing the planchet before and after mounting, the sample. The planchet is counted for beta activity on an automatic proportional counter. Results are calculated using empirical self-absorption curves which allow for the change in effective counting efficiency caused by the residue mass.
67
2.0 DETE N APAHrLm Detection capability depends upon the sample volume actually represented on the planchet, the background and the efficiency of the counting instrument, and upon self-absorption'of beta particles by the mounted sample. Because the radioactive species are not identifled, no decay corrections are made and the reported activity refers to the counting time.
The minimum detectable level (MDL) for water samples is nominally 1.6 picocuries per liter for gross beta at the 4.66 sigma level (1.0 pCi/1 at the 2.83 sigma level), assuming that 1 liter of sample is used and that 2 gram of sample residue is mounted on the planchet. These Qgures are based upon a counting'time of 50 minutes and upon representative values of counting eEiciqncy and background of 0.2 and 1.2 cpm, respectively.
The MDL becomes significantly lower as the mount weight decreases because of reduced self-absorption. At a zero mount weight, the 4.66 sigma MDL for gross beta is 0.9 picocuries per liter. These values reflect a beta counting efBciency of 0.38.
68
GROSS BETA ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES N~P After a delay of Ave or more days, allowing for the radon-222 and radon-220 (thoron) daughter products to decay, the filters are counted in a gas-flow proportional counter. An unused air particulate filter, supplied by D. C. Cook, is counted as the blank.

ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FOR TEDIUM W~t'r Approximately 2 ml of water are converted to hydrogen by passing the water, heated to its vapor state. over a granular zinc conversion column heated to 400'. The hydrogen is loaded into a one liter proportional detector and the volume is determined by recording the pressure.
The proportional detector is passively shielded by lead and steel and an electronic, anticoincidence system provides additional shielding from cosmic rays.

ENVIRONMENTALDOSMETRY Teledyne Isotopes uses a CaS04.Dy thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) which the company manufactures. This material has a high light output, negligible thermally induced signal loss (fading), and negligible self dosing. The energy response curve {as well as all other features) satisQes NRC Reg. Guide 4.13. Transit doses are accounted for by use of separate TLDs.
Following the field exposure period the TLDs are placed in a Teledyne Isotopes Model 8300. One fourth of the rectangular TLD is heated at a time and the measured light emission Ouminescence) is recorded. The TLD is then annealed and exposed to a known Cs-137 dose: each area is then read again. This provides a calibration of each area of each TLD after every field use. The transit controls are read in the same manner.

EPA Results-Expected laboratory precision (1 sigma). Units are pCi/liter for water, and milk except K is in mg/liter. Units are total pCi for air paruculate Qlters.
Teledyne Results - Average 2 one sigma, Units are pCi/Bter for water and milk except K is in mg/liter. Units are total pCi for air particulate filters.
No apparent cause for the low results were found. Three aBquots of the sample were counted on three. separate detectors. The results of all three were similar. The calibration curve Qt is good (0.997). Ruthenium-106 will be obtained from the EPA to further investigate the matter and future mixed gamma in water EPA Intercomparisons will be monitored to identify continuing trends.
The EPA deposit occupies a smaller area than our calibration planchet and hence has a higher counting efficiency. No further corrective action is required, since our calibration standard better represents an air particulate Qlter.
Incomplete removal of calcium, lead to erroneously high strontium yields o e . MOre care is be taken in thee strontium nitrate and strontium sulfate precipitation steps to ensure a Qnal volume of at least 20 ml in the strontium sulfate step. Reanalysis of internal QC samples produced good results after implementing the corrective action.
There is no apparent reason for the deviation between the EPA and Teledyne Isotopes values. Other isotopes in the sample were measured accurately. The calculations were reviewed and activities calculated from other Ba-133 gamma rays. Results were reproduced as reported.

APPENDIX F
SUMMARY
OF THE 1990 LAND USE CENSUS The Land Vse Census is performed to ensure that signiQcant changes in the areas in the immediate vicinity of the plant site are identified. Any identiQed changes are evaluated to determine whether modiQcations must be made to the REMP or other related programs. No such changes were identiQed during the 1990 Land Vse Census. The following is a sunnnary of the 1990 results.
The mQk farm survey is performed to update the list of milk farms located in the plant area, to identify the closest milk farm in each land sector, and to identify the nearest mQk animal whose milk is used for xnan consumption.
In 1990 there were no additions and five deletions from the list of area mQk farms. None of the deleted mQk farms were involved in the Cook Plant mQk sampling program.
The closest mQk farm in each land sector was unchanged for 1990. A table identi&jing these milk farms is included at the end of this Appendix.
The location of the closest mQk animal also remains unchanged for 1990.
The residential survey is performed to identify the closest residence to the plant in each land sector. The closest residences in each sector were unchanged for 1990. A table identifying each residence is included at the end of this appendix.
In accordance with Technical SpeciQcation (T/8) 3.12.2, broadleaf vegetation sampling is performed in lieu of a garden census. Broadleaf sampling is performed to monitor for plant impact on the environment.
103
The samples are obtained, at the site boundaxy in the land sector where it is stimated that the maximum concentration of plant related radionuclides would occur. The broadleaf analytical results for 1990 were <<LLD.
w~n A residential well survey was performed in 1990 to monitor the groundwater aquifer north and south of the Cook Plant for radionucles and to identify wells in the vicinity of the plant used to supply water for human consumption.
'Ihe well survey was performed in the communities of Rosemary Beach and Livingston Hills located directly north and south of the plant respectively. These are the closest communities to the Cook Plant. Results of the survey are summarized on the table and maps at the end of this appendix.
Communities to the east of the plant were not involved in the well ensus due to the fact that they are located greater than a mQe from the plant center and are upstream of the prevaQing east to west groundwater flow.
Eight of the thirty-seven residences in the Rosemary Beach community were identified as having wells used to supply water for human consumption. These residences are indicated on the Rosemary Beach Map.
Gamma spectrometxy, iodine, and tritium analyses were performed for each sample. The results were all <<LLD.
The Livingston Hills community consists of eight residences. Each residence obtains its drinking water from the Lake Township Municipal Water System. Inactive wells are located at each residence. None of the inactive wells are currently operational. Two of the inactive wells.
Malmstadt and Scupham, were temporarQy repaired for the purpose of obtaining groundwater samples. These residences are identifie'd on the Livingston Hills Map. Duplicate samples were obtained Rom each well. The spectrometry, iodine, and tritium results for the Mhlmstadt samples re <<LLD. The gamma spectrometry and iodine results for the Scupham 104
samples were <LLD. The tritium results for the Scupham samples wer
<LLD and 350 pCi/liter. (See attached Table).
An additional well has been established offsite between the plant and Livingston Hills to facilitate future groundwater sampling in this area for the purpose of long-term monitoring of the aquifer (see attached map). Initial gamma spectrometry. iodine, and tritium analyses were all <LLD.
A swamp water sample was obtained to represent standing ground water that may be utQized for animal consumption. Initial gamma spectrometry, iodine, and tritium analyses were all <LLD.

APPENDIX G SUlHMARYOF THE PRE-OPERATIONAL RADIOLOGICALMONITORINGPROGRAM 111
SUMKEQtY OF THE PREOPERATIONAL RADIOLOGICAL MONITORING PROGRAM A preoperational radiological environmental monitoring program was performed for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant from August 1971 until the initial criticality of Unit 1 on January 18, 1975. 'Ihe analyses of samples collected in the vicinity of the nuclear power plant were performed by Eberline Instrument Corporation. The summary of the preoperational program presented in this appendix is based on the seven semi-annual reports covering the period. The purpose of this summary is to provide a comparison of the radioactivity measured in the environs of the plant during the pre-start up of Unit 1 and the radioactivity measured in 1990.
As stated in the report for the period of July 1 to December 31, 1971 . th the purposes of a preoperational radiological monitoring program include: ~t (a) "To yield average values of radiation levels and concentrations of radioactive material in various media of the environment.
(b) To identify sample locations and/or types of samples that deviate from the averages.
(c) To document seasonal variations that could be erroneously interpreted when the power station is operating.
(d) To indicate the range of values that should be considered "background" for various types of samples.
(e) To "proof test" the environmental monitoring equipment and procedures prior to operation of the nuclear power station.
(h) To provide baseline information that will yield estimates of the dose to man, if any, which wQl result from plant operation."
The discussion that follows is for the 'various sample media collected and analyzed in both the preoperational period and in 1990.
alyses, such as strontium-89 and strontium-90 in milk and air 112
particulates performed during the preoperational but not required in 1990, are not discussed.
The gross beta activity in air particulate Qlters ranged Gom 0.01 to 0.17 pCi/m~ from the middle of 1971 to the middle of 1973. In June of 1973 and in June of 1974 the People's Republic of China detonated atmospheric nuclear tests. As a result there were periods during which the gross beta results were elevated to as high as 0.45 pCi/m~ with no statistically significant differences between indicator and background stations. By the end of the preoperational period the values were approximately 0.06 pCi/m~.
The gamma ray analyses of composited air particulate Qlters showed "trace amounts" of Qssion products, Ce-144, Ru-106, Ru-103, Zr-95, and Nb-95, the results of fallout from previous atmospheric nuclear tests.
Cosmogenically produced beryllium-7 was also detected.
The direct radiation background as measured b thermo)uminescent dosimeters (TLD) ranged between 1.0 and 2.0 mRem/week during the three and one-half years period.
MQk'samples during the preoperattonal period were analyzed for iodine-131 and by gamma ray spectroscopy (and for strontium-89 and strontium-90). All samples had naturally occurring potassium-40 with values ranging between 520 and 2310 pCi/liter. Cesium-137 was measured in many samples after the two atmospheric nuclear tests mentioned above. The cesium-137 activity ranged from 8 to 33 pCi/liter.
Iodine-131 was, measured in four'milk samples collected July 9, 1974.
The values ranged between 0.2 and 0.9 pCi/liter..
Lake water samples were collected and analyzed for tritium and by gamma ray spectroscopy. Tritium activities were below 1000 pCi/liter and typically averaged about 400 pCi/liter. No radionuclides were detected by gamma ray spectroscopy.
Gamma ray spectroscopy analyses of lake sediment detected natural abundances of potassium-40, uranium and thorium daughters, and traces of cesium-137 below O.l pCi/g which is attributed to faHout.
Gamma spectroscopy analyses of Qsh detected natural abundances of potassium-40 and traces of cesium-137, the latter attributed to fallout.
D~king water analysis was not part of the preoperational program.

SUMMARY
OF THE BLIND DUPLICATE SAMPIK PROGRAM 115
SUMNARY OF THE BUZZ') DUPLICATE 8AMPLF. PROGRAM The Plant procedure for implementing the blind duplicatee sam samp ling program was revised in 1990. The procedure revision was performed to allow for the preparation and use of spiked samples in the duplicate sample program. Analysis comparisons using samples with detectable activity, as referenced in Regulatory Guide 4.15, are a more useful indicator of an analytical lab's performance.
Ten duplicate analyses were performed in 1990. The samples and results are listed in the attached table. Nine of the samples were within acceptable limits. The duplicate TLD sample feQ outside the acceptable limi limits.. A comparison o was subsequently made between the onsite, offsite, and control 'group TLD's.

SURSGLRY OF THE %TEE AND BLANKKQhKPLE PROGRAM The following tables list the blanks and spiked water samples anal ed uring 1990 for the Teledyne Isotopes In-house Quality Assurance Program.
Analysis date is analogous to collection date to identify weekly analysis of samples.
One analysis for gross beta activity was reported outside the speciQed acceptable ranges. No documented corrective action was taken because in accordance with Section 9.1 of our Quality Control Manual (IWL-0032-365),
the acceptance criteria for a particular analysis "is within 3 standard deviations of the EPA one sigma, one determination as specified in the Environmental Radioactive Laboratory Studies Program EPA-600/4-81-004, Table 3, Page 8". For gross beta activity below 100 pCi/1 the control level at which corrective action must be taken is 2 15 pCi/1. The quality assurance department operationally investigates gross beta spike results which exceed the one standard deviation, one determination levels (2 5 pCi/1), because of previous experience in reporting results within that level.

APPENDIX J TLD QUALXTF CONTROL PROGRAM 130
TLD QUAUXF CONTROL PROGRAM Teledyne Isotopes performs an in-house quality assurance testing program for the environmental TLD laboratory. On a quarterly basis the QA manager exposes groups of TLDs to three different doses using a known cesium-137 exposure rate. Typical exposures are between 20 and 80 mR.
The TLDs are readout on each of the three Model 8300 Readers in the environmental TLD laboratory and the calculated results are reported to the QA manager. The QA manager evaluates the results and writes a report discussing the performance of the labs. For 1990 all results were within the requirements of Regulatory Guide 4.13, Section C. The standard deviations were less than 7.5% and the variations from the known were less than 3(P/0.
The accompanying graphs show the normalized deviations of the measured doses to the exposure doses for each of the three readers.
