FLORIDA POIVER & LIGHT COMPANY March 15, 1979 L-79-61 Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Attention: Mr. Victor Stello, Director Division of Operating Reactors U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D. C. 20555

Dear Mr. Stello:

Re: St. Lucie Unit 1 Docket No. 50-335 Proposed Amendment to Facilit 0 eratin License DPR-67 In accordance with 10 CFR 50.30, Florida Power 8 Light Company submits herewith three (3) signed originals and forty (40) copies of a request to amend Appendix A of Facility Operating License DPR-67. A description of the proposed changes, followed by the revised Technical Specification

.pages, is attached.

The proposed amendment has been reviewed by the St. Lucie Facility Review

-Group and the Florida Power 5 Light Company Nuclear Review Board. They have concluded that it does not involve an unreviewed safety question.

Part of the material being proposed for inclusion in the Technical Specifications (Appendix A) is presently in the Environmental Technical Specifications (Appendix B). A proposed amendment to remove this material from the Environmental Technical Specifications is being prepared and will be forwarded to your office within a few weeks. We request that the two proposals be reviewed concurrently.

This amendment is considered a Class III amendment per 10 CFR 170.22.

Accordingly, a check for four thousand dollars ($ 4,000.00) is enclosed.

Very tr 1 . yours, obert E. Uhrig Vice President Advanced Systems 8 Technology

TABLE 4.11-1 (Continued)

TABLE NOTATION

a. The lower limit of detection (LLD) is defined in Table Notation a. of Table 4.12.1 of Specification 4.12.1.1.

b. For radionuclides identified by gamma spectrum analysis it may not be possible to measure certain radionuclides near their LLD limit when they are in the presence of .other radionuclides at higher concentration. When a radionuclide's calculated LLD is greater than its listed LLD limit, the activity of the radionuclide should be calculated using measured ratios with those radionuclides which are routinely identified and measured.

If a ratio activity cannot be determined, the calculated LLD should be assigned as the activity of the radionuclide.

c. A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume.

d. The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD limit specification will apply are exclusively the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Ho-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141, and Ce-144. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be detected and reported. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with the above nuclides, shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses should not be reported as being present at the LLD level.

e. A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid sampled is pro-portional to the quantity of liquid waste discharged and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen which is representative of the liquids released. Prior to analysis, all samples taken for the composite shall be thoroughly mixed in order for the composite sample to be representative of the effluent release.

f. A continuous release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a nondiscrete volume; e.g., from a volume of system that has an input flow during the continuous release.

a. The lower limit of detection (LLD) is defined in Table Notation a.

of Table 4.12-1 of Specification 4.12.1.1.

b. For radionuclides identified by gamma spectrum analysis it may not be possible to measure certain radionuclides near their LLD Limit when they are in the presence of other radionuclides at higher concentration. When a radionuclide's calculated LLD is greater than its listed LLD Limit, the activity of the radionuclide should be calculated using measured ratios with those radionuclides which are routinely identified and measured. If a ratio activity cannot be determined, the calculated LLD should be assigned as the activity of

.the radionuclide.

c~ The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD Limit Specification will apply are exclusively the following radionuclides: Kr-87, Kr-88, Xe-133, Xe-133m, Xe-135, and Xe-138 for noble gas emissions and Hn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Ho-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141, Ce-144, and I-131 for particulate emissions. This list does not mean that only these nuclides are to be detected and reported. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable, together with, the above nuclides shall also be identified and reported. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses should not be reported as being present at the LLD level for that nuclide.

d. Tritium grab samples shall be taken prior to each batch release, but the sample may be analyzed after the batch release when the sample counting solution has stabilized to allow an accurate determination of activity.

e. Sampling Frequency and Minimum Analysis Frequency are applicable only during releases via this pathway.

f. The ratio of the sample flow rate to the sampled stream flow rate shall be known for the time period'n Specifications 3.11.2.1, 3.11.2.2, and 3.11.2.3.

TABLE 4.12-1 (con';t NOTATION a.Acceptable detection capabilities for thermoluminescent dosimeters used for environmental measurements are given in Regulatory Guide 4.13.

b Table indicates acceptable detection capabilities for radioactive materials in environmental samples. These detection capabilities are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLDs). The LLD is defined, for purposes of this guide, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count (above system background) that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5% probability of falsely con-cluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

For a particular measurement system (which may include radiochemical separation):

4.66 sb LLD = E ' ~ 2.22 ' .

exp(-XAt)

Where LLD is the lower limit of detection as defined above (as pCi per unit mass or volume) ~

sb is the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (as counts per minute).

E is the counting efficiency (as counts per disintegration).

V is the sample size (in units of mass or volume).

2.22 is the number of disintegrations per minute per picocurie.

Y is the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable).

X is the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide.

At is the clasped time between sample collection (or end of the sample collection period) and time of counting.

The value of s b used in the calculation of the LLD for a particular measure-ment system should be based on the actual observed variance of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of the blank samples (as appropriate),

rather than on an unverified theoretically predicated variance. In calculating the LLD for a radionuclide determined by gamma-ray spectrometry, the background should include the typical contributions of other radionuclides normally present in the samples (e.g. potassium-40 in milk samples).

Typical values of E, V, Y and At should be used in the calculation.

3/4.11 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES 3/4.11.1 LI UID EFFLUENTS 3/4.11.1.1 CONCENTRATION I

This specification is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents from the site to unrestricted areas will be less than the concentration levels specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II. This limitation provides addi-tional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water outside the site will not result in exposures within '(1) the Section II.A design objectives of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, to an individual and (2) the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.106(e) to the population.

The concentration limit for noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radioisotope and its NPC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP)

Publication 2.

3/4.11.1.2 DOSE This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.A, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The Limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonable achievable",.

ST. LUCIE - UNIT 1 B 3/4 11-1 3/15/79

RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES This specification applies to the release of liquid effluents from each reactor at the site. For units with shared radwaste treatment systems, the liquid effluents from the shared system are proportioned among the units sharing that system.

3/4.11.1.3 LI UID HASTE TREATMENT The OPERABILITY of appropriate subsystems of the LHT system ensures that this system will be available for use whenever liquid effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment. The requirements that the appropriate portions of this system be used when specified provides assur-ance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and design objective Section 11.D of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the liquid radwaste treatment system were specified as a suit-able fraction of the guide set forth in Section 11.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for liquid effluents.

3/4.11.2 GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 3/4.11.2.1 DOSE RATE This specification is provided to ensure that the dose rate at any-time at the exclusion area boundary from gaseous effluents from all units on the site will be within the annual dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20 for unrestricted areas. The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table ll. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of an individual in an unrestricted area, either within or outside the exclusion area boundary, to annual average concentrations exceeding the limits "specified in Appendix B, Table 11 of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR Part 20.106(b)). For individuals who may at times be within the exclusion area boundary, the occupancy of the individual will be sufficiently low to compensate for ST. LUCIE UNIT 1 B 3/4 11-2 3/15/79

RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the ex-clusion area boundary. The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to an individual at or beyond the exclusion area boundary to < (500) mrem/year to the total body or to < (3000) mrem/year to the skin. These release rate limits also restrict, at all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background to an infant via the cow-milk-infant pathway to < 1500 mrem/year for the nearest cow to the plant.

3/4.11.2.2 DOSE NOBLE GASES This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.B, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The Limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II.B of Appendix I. The ACTTON statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I assure that the releases of radioactive material in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable."

The Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conform with the guides of Appendix I to be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of an individual through the appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The dose calculations established in the in-plant procedures for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radio-active noble gases in gaseous effluents should be consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Han from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "kfethods for Estimating Atmos-pheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Mater-Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. The in-plant procedures equations provided for determining the air doses at the.'exclusion area boundary will be based upon the historical (or real) average atmospheric conditions.

3/4.11.2.3 DOSE RADIOIODINES RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL IN PARTICULATE F01Qf AND RADIONUCLIDES OTHER THAN NOBLE GASES This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.C, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The Limiting ST. LUCIE UNIT 1 B 3/4 11-3 3/15/79

RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES Conditions for Operation are the guides set forth in Section II.C of Appendix I. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexi-bility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be'ept "as low as is reasonably achievable." The in-plant procedures calculational methods specified in the surveillance requirements implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conform-ance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of an individual through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially under-estimated. The in-plant procedures calculational methods for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of the subject materials are required to be consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculating of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Fart 50, Appendix I," Revision I, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Mater-Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. These equations also provide for determining the actual doses based upon the historical (or real) average atmospheric conditions. The release rate specifications for radioiodines, radioactive material in particulate. form and radionuclides other than noble gases are dependent on the existing radionuclide pathways to man, in the unrestricted area.

The pathways which are examined in the development of these calculations are: 1) individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, 2) deposition of radionuclides onto green leafy vegetation with subsequent consumption by man, 3) deposition onto grassy areas where milk animals and meat producing animals graze with consumption of the milk and meat by man, and

4) deposition on the ground with subsequent exposure of man.

3/4.11.2.4 GASEOUS HASTE TREATMENT The OPERABILITY of the appropriate subsystems of the gaseous radwaste treatment system ensures that the system will be available for use when-ever gaseous effluents require holdup prior to release to the environment.

The requirement that the appropriate portions of these systems be used when specified provides reasonable assurance that the releases of radio-active materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, and design objective Section IID of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the systems were specified as a suitable fraction of the guide set forth in Sections llB and 11.C of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for gaseous effluents.

3/4.11.2.7 GAS STORAGE TANKS Restricting the quantity of radioactivity contained in each gas storage tank provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tanks contents, the resulting total body exposure to an individual at the nearest exclusion area boundary will not exceed 0.5 rem, as per Safety Guide 24 Rev. 3/23/72 . This is consistent with Standard Review Plan 15.7.1, "Haste Gas System Failure."

3/4. 12 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIROAKNTAL MONITORING BASES 3/4.12.1 MONITORING PROGRAM The radiological monitoring program required by this specification provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements the radio-logical effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways. Program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The detection capabilities required by Table 4.12.-1 are state-of-the-art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories.

The LLD limits for drinking water meet the requirements of 40 CFR 141.

3/4.12.2 LAND USE CENSUS This specification is provided to ensure that changes in the use of unrestricted areas are identified and that modifi-cations to the monitoring program are made if required by the results of this census. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appendix I to 10 CPR Part 50. Restricting the census to gardens of greater than 500 square feet provides assurance that significant exposure pathways via leafy vegetables will be identified and monitored since a garden of this size is the minimum required to produce the quantity (26 kg/year) of leafy vegetables assumed in Regulatory Guide 1.109 for consumption by a child. To determine this minimum garden size, the following assumptions were used, 1) that 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegetation (i.e., similar to lettuce and cabbage), and 2) a vegetation yield of 2 kg/square meter. Broad leaf vegetation sampling may be per-fotned at the site bonndaty in the ditection sector with the highest(DTQ) in lieu of performing the garden census.

3/4.12.3 INTERLABORATORY COMPARISON PROGRAM The requirement for participation in an Interlaboratory Comparison program is provided to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental sample matrices are performed as part of a quality assurance program for environmental monitoring in order to demonstrate that the results are reasonably valid.

FLORIDA POWER 8( LIGHT COMPANY March 15, 1979 L-79-61 Director of Nuclear Reactor Regulation Attention: Mr. Victor Stello, Director Division of Operating Reactors U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Washington, D. C. 20555

Dear Mr. Stello:

,Re: St. Lucie Unit 1 Docket No. 50-335 Proposed Amendment to Facilit 0 eratin License DPR-67 In accordance with 10 CFR 50.30, Florida Power 8I Light Company submits herewith three (3) signed originals and forty (40) copies of a request to amend Appendix A of Facility'perating License DPR-67. A description of the proposed changes, followed by the revised Technical Specification pages, is attached.

The proposed amendment has been reviewed by the St. Lucie Facility Review Group and the Florida Power 5 Light Company Nuclear Review Board. They have concluded that it does not involve an unreviewed safety question.

Part of the material being proposed for inclusion in the Technical Specifications (Appendix A) is presently in the Environmental Technical Specifications (Appendix B). A proposed amendment to remove this material from the Environmental Technical Specifications is being prepared and will be forwarded to your office within a few weeks. We request that the two proposals be reviewed concurrently.

This amendment -is considered a Class III amendment per 10 CFR 170.22.

Accordingly, a check for four thousand dollars ($ 4,000.00) is enclosed.

Very tr 1 yours, obert E. Uhrig Vice President Advanced Systems & Technology 0 gP REU:MAS:cf ok

ATTACHMENT Re: St. Lucie Unit 1 Docket. No. 50-335 Proposed Tech Spec Change Ap endix I The objective of this proposal is to implement the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix X. Draft guidance from the NRC was followed when appropriate, depending on the specific design and operation of St. Lucie Unit l.

For example, the solidification issue has not been addressed. At present, a waste solidification program is not in place at St. Lucie, however, the need for such a program is being evaluated and may lead to further correspondence.
