==1.0 INTRODUCTION== | |||
Conestoga-Rovers & Associates (CRA) has prepared this Hydrogeologic Investigation Report (HIR) for Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) as part of its fleetwide program to determine whether groundwater at and near its nuclear power generating facilities has been adversely impacted by any releases of radionuclides. This report documents the results of CRA's May 2006 Hydrogeologic Investigation Work Plan (Work Plan), as well as several other investigative tasks recommended by CRA during the course of the investigation. These investigations pertain to Exelon's Zion Station (Station) in Zion, Illinois (see Figure 1.1). The Station is defined as all property, structures, systems, and components owned and operated by Exelon LLC and located at 101 Shiloh Boulevard, Zion, Lake County, Illinois. The approximate property boundaries are depicted on Figure 1.2. | |||
Pursuant to the Work Plan, CRA assessed groundwater quality at the Station in locations designated as areas for further evaluation (AFEs). The process by which CRA identified AFEs is discussed in Section 3.0 of this report. | |||

Revision 1 2.0 STATION DESCRIPTION The following section presents a general summary of the Station location and definition, overview of Station operations, surrounding land use, and an overview of both regional and Station-specific topography, surface water features, geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater flow conditions. This section also presents an overview of groundwater use in the area. | |||
2.1 STATION LOCATION The Station is a former nuclear power generating facility that, in the early spring of 1998, converted both units' generators to synchronous condensers that provide voltage stability to the northeast Illinois power grid. The Station encompasses approximately 250 acres (Exelon, 2004). Figure 1.2 presents a Station Boundaries and Features plan. | |||
The Station is located on the eastern edge of Zion between 23rd and 29th Streets, from the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad tracks to Lake Michigan. | The Station is located on the eastern edge of Zion between 23rd and 29th Streets, from the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad tracks to Lake Michigan. | ||
The Station is being maintained and | The Station is being maintained and monitored under the "SAFSTOR" (safe storage of components of the nuclear power plant) phase of decommissioning, as is discussed below. | ||
2.2 OVERVIEW OF COOLING WATER OPERATIONS Former Operations In the mid-1950s, Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) purchased about 250 acres on the eastern edge of Zion. The Station operated as a dual unit pressurized water reactor plant. A construction permit was issued in December 1968. An operating license was issued October 19, 1973 for Unit 1 and November 14, 1973 for Unit 2. Commercial operations commenced in December 1973 for Unit 1 and September 1974 for Unit 2. | |||
Unit 1 operations ended on February 21, 1997 and Unit 2 operations ended on September 19, 1996. All fuel was removed from the reactor and placed in the spent fuel pool on April 27, 1997 for Unit 1 and on February 25, 1998 for Unit | Unit 1 operations ended on February 21, 1997 and Unit 2 operations ended on September 19, 1996. All fuel was removed from the reactor and placed in the spent fuel pool on April 27, 1997 for Unit 1 and on February 25, 1998 for Unit 2. Commercial operation of the plant ended on January 14, 1998 when the Unicom Corporation and ComEd Boards of Directors authorized the permanent cessation of operations at the Station. Exelon submitted the certification of fuel transfer on March 9, 1998. In addition 045136 (22) Zion Station 2 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | ||
Revision 1 to maintaining the synchronous condensers, the Station's employees also monitor the safe storage of spent fuel. | |||
Discharges from the Station are subject to the requirements of Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Operating Licenses DPR-39 and DPR-48. Discharges from the Station are also subject to regulation under the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit IL0002763. | |||
The | The NPDES permit provides limits on parameters such as pH, total suspended solids, and oil and grease. | ||
Cooling Water Operations 1973-1997 The Station is comprised of two nearly identical pressurized water reactors with supporting facilities. Both primary reactor coolant systems were designed by Westinghouse Corporation and each is comprised of a reactor vessel and four heat transfer loops. Each loop contains a reactor coolant pump, steam generator, and associated piping and valves. In addition, each system includes a pressurizer, a pressurizer relief tank, interconnecting piping, and the instrumentation necessary for operational control. | |||
Each Containment Building is cylindrical with a shallow dome roof and has a flat slab foundation. The entire structure is internally lined with a welded steel plate and completely encloses the primary coolant system, steam generators, reactor coolant loops, and portions of the auxiliary and engineered safety feature systems. | |||
Heat produced in the reactor was converted to electrical energy by the power conversion system between 1973 and 1997. A turbine generator converted the thermal energy of steam produced in the steam generators into mechanical shaft power and then into electrical energy. | |||
The exhaust steam from the turbine was condensed and deaerated in the main condenser. The waste heat in the main condenser was removed by the circulating water system. Circulating water was withdrawn from Lake Michigan, approximately 450 feet east of the condensate storage tank, via an intake pipe connected to the circulating water pumps. After circulating through the plant condensers, the cooling water was routed back to the lake via discharge lines (ComEd, 1999). | |||
Primary coolant was treated to remove impurities and recirculated through the primary water (PW) system. Primary coolant was stored in two above ground storage tanks (ASTs) located on the east side of the Turbine Building. | |||
045136 (22) Zion Station 3 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||
Revision 1 Secondary cooling water (condensate cooling water) was treated to remove impurities and recirculated through the condensate (CD/SC) system. Secondary cooling water is stored in ASTs located on the east side of the Turbine Building. | |||
Circulating water is drawn from Lake Michigan by way of an intake pipe that extends approximately a half mile into the Lake. Circulating water is returned to Lake Michigan by way of two discharge pipes that extend approximately a quarter mile into the lake. | |||
Liquid wastes have been discharged under the NRC permit through the blowdown line, which is piped to the circulating water discharge pipe located east of the Turbine Building. | |||
Voltage Stabilization and SAFSTOR The Station is being decommissioned under the NRC regulatory process. The Station is currently in the "SAFSTOR" phase of the decommissioning process where the Station is maintained in a condition that allows it to be safely stored and subsequently decontaminated to levels that permit its release for unrestricted use. | |||
2.3 SURROUNDING LAND USE The Station is located on the shore of Lake Michigan, in the eastern portion of the City of Zion, and adjacent to the Illinois Beach State Park. | |||
Lake Michigan | The Illinois Beach State Park is located along the Lake Michigan shoreline and is divided into a northern unit and a southern unit, with the Station situated between the two units. | ||
The Illinois Beach State Park encompasses 4,160 acres and received approximately 2.75 million visitors in 1998. The Park is considered a natural resource (ATSDR, 2000). | |||
The | The land located to the west of the Station is generally undeveloped with a limited number of industrial/commercial facilities present along Deborah Avenue. Residential areas and the City of Zion downtown are located west of the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad, which is west of the Station. Lake Michigan borders the Station to the east. | ||

Revision 1 2.4 STATION SETTING The following sections present a summary of the topography, surface water features, geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater flow conditions in the region surrounding the Station. The information was primarily gathered from Sections 2.1 and 2.3 of the Zion Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DSAR) last revision dated October 2004 (Exelon, 2004). | |||
a | The main references the DSAR relies upon are listed in Section 10.0 of this HIR. CRA checked and verified all DSAR references that apply to this HIR. | ||
2.4.1 TOPOGRAPHY AND SURFACE WATER FEATURES Lake County consists of moraines, outwash plains, lake plains, kames, stream terraces, flood plains, beaches, and bogs. The county is in the Wheaton Morainal country of the Great Lakes section of the Central Lowland province. Relief in Lake County was caused by differences in the thickness of deposits left by the most recent glacier. The land surface gradually slopes to the south or southeast. The highest point in the county, 957 feet above mean sea level (AMSL), is located on Gander Mountain in the northwest corner of the county. The lowest point is at the Lake Michigan shore near Waukegan. | |||
Several moraines run through the county. From east to west, they are the Lake Border Morainic System, the Tinley Moraine, the Valparaiso Morainic System, and the Fox Lake Moraine. In general, Lake County has a poorly defined drainage pattern. Many drainage ways terminate in depressions and marshes. The land area falls into four major watersheds and 26 drainage basins. The Chicago River, Des Plaines River, Fox River, and Lake Michigan watersheds are all shared with neighboring counties in Illinois and Wisconsin (NRCS, 2005). | |||
The Lake Michigan shoreline between North Chicago, Illinois and Kenosha, Wisconsin comprises the Zion beach-ridge plain. The Zion beach-ridge plain consists of linear, generally coast-parallel mounds of sand and gravel that have been built up by wave action to extend the coast outward into Lake Michigan. The Zion beach-ridge plain has a maximum width of approximately 1 mile near the City of Zion (Chrzastowski and Frankie, 2000). The older dunes become root-bound by vegetation resulting in long lines of sandy ridges separated by linear marshes. | |||
The main portion of the Station is located on a sand ridge that runs parallel to the Lake Michigan shoreline as shown on Figure 1.2. The area in the immediate vicinity of the Station has been leveled and is paved. The ground elevation at the main complex is 591 feet AMSL. The average lake level is 577 feet AMSL. The eastern portion of the 045136 (22) Zion Station 5 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||
Revision 1 Station is a beach gently sloping to the Lake Michigan shoreline. The area to the west of the Station is a low-lying wet area. | |||
a stratigraphic cross-section representative of bedrock units in Lake County, Illinois. | Lake Michigan has a surface area of 22,300 square miles, with a mean depth of 276 feet and a volume of 1,170 cubic miles. Lake Michigan has a natural outlet through the Straits of Mackinac on the north end of the lake and a second outlet through the Illinois Waterway near Chicago (USEPA, 1995). | ||
Figure 2.3 presents a cross-section of the | The average surface elevation of Lake Michigan is 577 feet AMSL. The surface elevation of Lake Michigan varies daily and annually, and is affected by hydrologic and atmospheric conditions and flow through the two outlets. Water levels in Lake Michigan typically vary about 1 foot in elevation between annual low and high measurements. Generally, the lowest levels occur in winter when much of the precipitation is locked up in ice and snow on land, and dry winter air masses pass over the lakes enhancing evaporation. Levels are highest in summer after the spring thaw when runoff increases (USEPA, 1995). | ||
Rocks of the Cambrian through Silurian Periods are marine in origin and were deposited in a sea that covered all of Illinois (Willman, 1971). The rocks consist of sandstones, shales, and carbonates for a combined | The low-lying wet area on the western portion of the Station is in the watershed of the Dead River, which flows through the marshy swales located to the west of the longitudinal sand dunes that follow the Lake Michigan shoreline. The Dead River passes through the Illinois Beach State Park as shown on Figure 1.1. The Dead River flows into Lake Michigan at a point approximately 2.3 miles south of the Station. The Dead River was so named because the mouth is periodically blocked by shifting sandbars on the Lake Michigan shoreline. | ||
2.4.3 | Storm water runoff from the switchyard is captured by the perimeter ditch, which is a drainage channel that follows the Station's outer fence. The perimeter ditch connects to Lake Michigan to the north and south of the Protected Area (PA). Figure 2.1 presents a depiction of the perimeter ditch and the stormwater drainage ditches that control surface water at the Station. On the western portion of the Station property some of these drainage systems intercept the shallow groundwater. This is not the case on the eastern portion of the Station property where the stormwater drainage system is located above the water table as it drops towards Lake Michigan. | ||

The uppermost bedrock aquifer consists of the Silurian dolomites. The underlying Maquoketa Group shales hydraulically separate the Silurian aquifer from deeper units. | ||
The deeper aquifer systems include the Cambrian-Ordovician aquifer group, which includes the St. Peter and Ironton-Galesville sandstones. The underlying Eau Claire Formation hydraulically separates the Cambrian-Ordovician aquifer group from the deeper Mt. Simon Aquifer (Visocky et al., 1985). | |||
The sandstones of the Mt. Simon Formation are not typically used for potable water because of undesirable characteristics including high concentrations of total dissolved solids and natural radioactivity. Crystalline basement rock underlies the Mt. Simon Formation (Visocky et al., 1985). | |||
Lake Michigan acts as a major regional discharge zone for groundwater. The groundwater flow in both unconsolidated deposits and bedrock units in the region is generally toward the lake; however, localized pumping induces variations in flow directions in the bedrock aquifers. | |||

Revision 1 2.5 AREA GROUNDWATER USE A water well inventory compiled as part of this investigation indicates a number of wells located (or formerly located) near the Station. The locations of wells in the vicinity of the Station are provided on Figure 2.4. A water well report was prepared using Illinois water well databases and associated well logs, and is provided in Appendix A. | |||
The well records for locations nearest to the Station (map identifiers 5, 6, and 10) are mis-located (Map Id. 51), not a water well (Map Id. 62), or no longer exist (Map Ids. 6 and 103). With the exception of Map Ids. 6 and 10, the wells identified in the water well report have not been field verified and it is expected that many of the wells listed have been abandoned. | |||

The City of Zion municipal code requires all improved properties to be connected to the City's water supply. It is "unlawful for any person to construct, permit or maintain a private well or water supply system within the City which uses groundwater as a potable water supply" (City of Zion, 2004). The only exception is for existing wells constructed prior to March 2, 2004 at properties located more than 100 feet from the municipal supply system, which must: 1) enter into an agreement with the City, and | ||

Revision 1 3.0 AREAS FOR FURTHER EVALUATION CRA considered all Station operations in assessing groundwater quality at the Station. | |||
During this process, CRA identified areas at the Station that warranted further evaluation or "AFEs". This section discusses the process by which AFEs were selected. | |||
CRA's identification of AFEs involved the following components: | |||
* Station inspection on March 22 to 23, 2006; | |||
* interviews with Station personnel; | |||
Revision 1 | * evaluation of Station systems; | ||
* investigation of confirmed and unconfirmed releases of radionuclides; and | |||
* review of previous Station investigations. | |||
FOR FURTHER EVALUATION CRA considered all Station operations in | CRA analyzed the information collected from these components combined with information obtained from CRA's study of hydrogeologic conditions at the Station to identify those areas where groundwater potentially could be impacted from operations at the Station. | ||
CRA's identification of AFEs | CRA then designed an investigation to determine whether any confirmed or potential releases or any other release of radionuclides adversely affected groundwater. This entailed evaluating whether existing Station groundwater monitoring systems were sufficient to assess the groundwater quality at the AFEs. If the systems were not sufficient to adequately investigate groundwater quality associated with any AFE, additional monitoring wells were installed by CRA. | ||

Revision 1 The Station then individually evaluated the various system components to determine the potential for any release of radioactively contaminated liquid to enter the environment. Each structure or identified component was evaluated against the following seven primary criteria: | |||
* location of the component (i.e., basement or second floor of building); | |||
* component construction material (i.e., stainless steel or steel tanks); | |||
* construction methodologies (i.e., welded or mechanical pipe joints); | |||
* concentration of radioactively contaminated liquid stored or conveyed; | |||
* amount of radioactively contaminated liquid stored or conveyed; | |||
* existing controls (i.e., containment and detection); and | |||
* maintenance history. | |||
System components, which were located inside a building or that otherwise had some form of secondary containment, such that a release of radioactively contaminated liquid would not be discharged directly to the environment, were eliminated from further evaluation. System components that are not located within buildings or did not have some other form of secondary containment were retained for further qualitative evaluation of the risk of a release of radioactively contaminated liquid to the environment and the potential magnitude of any release. | |||
Exelon's risk evaluation took into consideration factors such as: | |||
* the potential concentration of radionuclides; | |||
* the volume of liquid stored or managed; | |||
* the probabilities of the systems actually containing radioactively contaminated liquid; and | |||
* the potential for a release of radioactively contaminated liquid from the system component. | |||
These factors were then used to rank the systems and system components according to the risk for a potential release of a radioactively contaminated liquid to the environment. | |||
The evaluation process resulted in the identification of structures, components, and areas to be considered for further evaluation. | |||

Revision 1 3.2 HISTORICAL RELEASES CRA also reviewed information concerning confirmed or potential historical releases of radionuclides at the Station, including reports and documents previously prepared by Exelon and compiled for CRA's review. CRA evaluated this information in identifying the AFEs. Any historical releases identified during the course of this assessment that may have a current impact on Station conditions are further discussed in Section 3.4. | |||
3.3 STATION INVESTIGATIONS CRA considered previous Station investigations in the process of selecting the AFEs for the Station. This section presents a summary of the pre-operational radiological environmental monitoring program (pre-operational REMP), past station investigations, and the radiological environmental monitoring program (REMP). | |||
3.3.1 PRE-OPERATIONAL RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM A pre-operational REMP was conducted to establish background radioactivity levels prior to operation of the Station. The environmental media sampled and analyzed during the pre-operational REMP were surface water, well water, air particulates, milk, locally grown vegetables, and aquatic plants and animals (ComEd, 1971). The results of the monitoring were detailed in the report entitled, 1971 Zion Station Final Safety Analysis Report, December 1971. | |||
The pre-operational REMP report noted that surface water was sampled at five public water intakes. Generally, the gross beta radioactivity of Lake Michigan was less than 10 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L) with typical concentrations between 3 pCi/L to 6 pCi/L. | |||
Gross alpha radioactivity was typically less than 3 pCi/L (ComEd, 1971). | Gross alpha radioactivity was typically less than 3 pCi/L (ComEd, 1971). | ||

The concentration of | Tritium levels in Lake Michigan water were studied in the vicinity of Zion Station throughout 1970. The concentration of tritium in the surface water samples from the Lake at Zion ranged from approximately 311 +/- 20 pCi/L to 374 +/- 34 pCi/L and averaged 340 pCi/L. There was no statistical difference in average tritium concentrations among the stations (eight stations from Kenosha to Waukegan) (ComEd, 1971). | ||

Revision 1 1973 Aerial Radiological Measuring System An Aerial Radiological Measuring System (ARMS) survey was conducted at the Station prior to the startup of the reactors in 1973. The ARMS survey was conducted using small aircraft flying at an altitude between 300 and 500 feet. Ground-based measurements were obtained from two locations as part of the study. Tritium measurements were not included in the ARMS survey (ComEd, 1999). | |||

3.3.2 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM The REMP at the Station was initiated in 1973. The REMP includes the collection of multi-media samples including air, surface water, groundwater, fish, sediment, and vegetation. The samples are analyzed for beta and gamma-emitting radionuclides, tritium, iodine-131, and/or strontium as established in the procedures developed for the REMP. The samples are collected at established locations, identified as stations, so that trends in the data can be monitored. | |||
An annual report is prepared providing a description of the activities performed and the results of the analysis of the samples collected from the various media. The latest report generated was prepared by Station personnel and is entitled Final Monthly Progress Report to Exelon Nuclear, Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program - 2005. This report concluded that the operation of the Station had no adverse radiological impact on the environment. The annual report is submitted to the NRC. | |||

3.3.3 DEFUELED SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT In October 2004, Exelon updated the Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DSAR). The DSAR discusses the overall adequacy of the Station for safety, storing, and handling of fuel and radioactive waste, and to monitor potential radiological effluent release paths. | |||
It provides information on Station and local characteristics such as geography, demography, meteorology, geology, and hydrogeology. | |||
The DSAR states that intermittent liquid effluents from the Station will not affect groundwater supplies in the adjacent area in excess of concentrations in 10 CFR 20 due to local drainage patterns, release rates, and specific features of the sources of water supplies. | |||
The DSAR also states that the Station's radioactive liquid waste generated is collected, treated and either recycled or discharged. Discharged liquid wastes are monitored to assure compliance with 10 CFR 20. Radioactivity levels should not exceed permissible concentrations at the cooling water outlet in Lake Michigan. The two closest municipal water intakes are the LCPWD (approximately 1 mile north) and the Waukegan Waterworks (approximately 6 miles south). The February 2005 REMP report indicates that there have been no tritium concentrations detected in surface water samples at concentrations exceeding the lower limit of detection (LLD) of 200 pCi/L. | |||

3.4 IDENTIFIED AREAS FOR FURTHER EVALUATION CRA used the information presented in the above sections along with its understanding of the hydrogeology at the Station to identify AFEs, which were a primary consideration in the development of the scope of work in the Work Plan. The establishment of AFEs is a standard planning practice in hydrogeologic investigations to focus the investigation activities at areas where there is the greatest potential for impact to groundwater. | |||
Specifically, AFEs were identified based on these six considerations: | |||
* systems evaluations; | |||
* risk evaluations; | |||
* review of confirmed and/or potential releases; 045136 (22) Zion Station 15 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||

This evaluation allowed CRA to become familiar with Station operations and potential systems that may impact groundwater. CRA then evaluated information concerning historic releases as provided by the Station. This information, along with a review of the results from historic site investigations, was used to refine CRA's understanding of areas likely to have the highest possibility of impacting groundwater. | ||
This HIR details the AFEs investigated. | Where at risk systems or identified historical releases were located in close proximity or were located in areas which could not be evaluated separately, the systems and historical releases were combined into a single AFE. At times, during the Station investigation, separate AFEs were combined into one or were otherwise altered based on additional information and consideration. This HIR details the AFEs investigated. | ||
Finally, CRA used its understanding of known hydrogeologic conditions (prior to this investigation) to identify AFEs. | Finally, CRA used its understanding of known hydrogeologic conditions (prior to this investigation) to identify AFEs. Groundwater flow was an important factor in deciding whether to combine systems or historical releases into a single AFE or create separate AFEs. For example, groundwater beneath several systems that contain radioactively contaminated liquids that flows toward a common discharge point were likely combined into a single AFE. The AFEs were created based on known groundwater flow conditions prior to the work completed during this investigation. | ||
Based upon its review of information | Based upon its review of information concerning confirmed or potential historical releases, historic investigations, and the systems at the Station that have the potential for release of radioactively contaminated liquids to the environment combined with its understanding of groundwater flow at the Station, CRA has identified four AFEs (see Figure 3.1). | ||

Revision 1 4.0 FIELD METHODS The field investigations completed for this HIR were completed in May to July 2006. | |||
CRA supervised the installation of monitoring wells and a staff gauge, and collected samples from the newly-installed monitoring wells and the surface water location. The field investigations were completed in accordance with the methodologies presented in the Work Plan (CRA, 2006). | |||
The scope of work presented in the Work Plan included the installation and sampling of nine permanent monitoring wells and the collection of a surface water sample. Based on the concentrations of tritium detected in monitoring well MW-ZN-01S, additional investigative activities were recommended by CRA, and implemented in June and July 2006. The additional investigative tasks included a second round of sampling at MW-ZN-01S and the installation and sampling of two permanent and four temporary monitoring wells.

The shallow soil borings completed in unconsolidated materials that were to be used for monitoring well installation were installed using either DPT or 4.25-inch inside diameter HSA drilling techniques. The borehole depths ranged from 19 to 45 feet bgs. During the subsurface utility clearance activities described above, the borehole was periodically examined and the soil types documented. A description was added to each monitoring well construction log. The overburden soils were classified using the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). | |||
4.3 GROUNDWATER MONITORING WELL DEVELOPMENT To establish good hydraulic communication with the aquifer and reduce the volume of sediment in the permanent monitoring wells, well development was conducted in accordance with the procedure outlined below: | |||
* monitoring wells were surged using a pre-cleaned bailer for a period of at least 5 minutes; | |||
* a minimum of one well volume of water was purged using a submersible pump; | |||
* the monitoring well was surged for 5 minutes again; | |||
* water was purged from the monitoring well using an electric submersible pump; | |||
* groundwater was collected at regular intervals and the pH, temperature, and conductivity were measured using field instruments. These instruments were calibrated daily according to the manufacturer's specifications. Additionally, observations such as color, odor, and turbidity of the purged water were recorded; and | |||
* development continued until the turbidity and silt content of the monitoring wells were significantly reduced and three consistent readings of pH, temperature, and conductivity were recorded, or a minimum of ten well volumes was purged. | |||
A summary of the monitoring well development parameter measurements is presented in Table 4.2. | |||

Revision 1 4.4 SURVEY The 15 monitoring wells and surface water gauge were surveyed to establish reference elevations relative to mean sea level. The top of each well casing was surveyed to the nearest 0.01 foot relative to the National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD), and the survey point was marked on the well casing. The survey included the ground elevation at each well to the nearest 0.10 foot relative to the NGVD, and the horizontal well location to the nearest 1.0 foot. A reference point was also marked on the concrete at the surface water elevation measuring location. | |||
The Lake Michigan shoreline was surveyed at the Station using a handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) with an estimated accuracy of +/- 12 feet. The GPS survey was conducted on June 30, 2006. | |||
4.5 GROUNDWATER AND SURFACE WATER ELEVATION MEASUREMENTS On May 23, 2006 and July 27, 2006, CRA collected water level measurements from the monitoring wells and the staff gauge at the Station in accordance with the Work Plan. | |||
Based on the measured depth to water from the reference point and the surveyed elevation of the reference point, the groundwater or surface water elevation was calculated. A summary of groundwater and surface water elevations is provided in Table 4.3. | |||
Prior to the water level measurements, the wells and staff gauges were identified and located. Once the wells were identified, CRA completed a thorough inspection of each well and noted any deficiencies. Water level measurements were collected using an electronic depth-to-water probe accurate to +/- 0.01 foot. The measurements were made from the designated location on the inner riser or steel casing of each monitoring well and reference point on the staff gauge. The water level measurements were obtained using the following procedures: | |||
The top of each well casing was surveyed to the nearest 0.01 foot relative to the National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD), and the survey point was marked on the well casing. The survey included the ground elevation at each well to the nearest 0.10 foot relative to the NGVD, and the horizontal well location to the nearest 1.0 foot.

5.1 | This section provides a summary of Station-specific geology and hydrogeology, along with a discussion of hydraulic gradients, groundwater elevations, and flow directions in the vicinity of the Station. This section also presents and evaluates the analytical results obtained from activities performed in accordance with the Work Plan. | ||
Figure 5.1 displays the cross-section | 5.1 STATION GEOLOGY Geologic cross-sections in both a south-north and east-west profile have been developed. | ||
The Station is underlain by overburden | Figure 5.1 displays the cross-section locations across the Station and the cross-sections are provided on Figures 5.2 and 5.3. These cross-section locations were chosen because of their close proximity to the AFEs and structures potentially influencing groundwater flow patterns. | ||
Upper Sand Unit: | The Station is underlain by overburden deposits and a regionally extensive sequence of consolidated sedimentary deposits as discussed in Section 2.4.3. In descending order, the following overburden stratigraphic units have been identified and characterized during the various Station investigations: | ||
Dense to very dense | * Upper Sand Unit: Dense to very dense granular soils which range in gradation from very fine sand to fine to coarse sand, and which contains some gravel and occasional cobbles and boulders. Depth ranges from the ground surface to an elevation of approximately 555 feet AMSL. | ||

The Upper Sand Unit includes the surficial deposits of the Zion beach-ridge plain and consists of sand and gravel of the Lake Michigan Formation.

045136 (22) Zion Station 27 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||
Revision 1 The Silt-Clay Unit is consistent with quiet water lacustrine deposits and may be associated with post-glacial Lake Michigan (Nipissing Phase). | |||
The Lower Sand Unit is consistent with recurring sequences of beach and quiet water lacustrine deposits and may be associated with the extreme Lake level fluctuations. As Lake levels rose, beach deposits moved westward with the shoreline and were followed by quiet water silt and clay deposits (a transgressive sequence). As Lake levels fell, the beach moved eastward with the shoreline (a regressive sequence). | |||
The overburden sediments are underlain by Silurian carbonate bedrock of the Niagaran Series, which was encountered at depths ranging from 102 to 116 feet bgs (ComEd, 1969). In northeastern Illinois the Niagaran Series includes the Racine, Sugar Run, and Joliet Formations (Willman et al., 1975). Below the Silurian carbonates lie Pre-Cambrian through Ordovician sedimentary rocks, including shales, carbonates, and sandstone. Crystalline basement rock is located at a depth of approximately 2,500 feet. | |||
The | The sedimentary bedrock strata are generally horizontal with a gentle dip to the east (Visocky et al., 1985). | ||
Some of the Station structures are constructed to depths of approximately 60 feet bgs. | |||
Excavations were completed from grade, through the Upper Sand Unit and into the topmost portion of the Silt-Clay Unit. Excavated sands were stockpiled during the construction and used as backfill (Exelon, 2004), and are considered to be hydraulically similar to the Upper Sand Unit. | |||
The fifteen new monitoring wells (MW-ZN-01S, MW-ZN-02S, MW-ZN-03S, MW-ZN-04S, MW-ZN-05S, MW-ZN-06S, MW-ZN-07S, MW-ZN-08S, MW-ZN-09S, MW-ZN-10S, MW-ZN-11S, TW-ZN-100, TW-ZN-101, TW-ZN-102, and TW-ZN-103) were installed within the Upper Sand Unit or fill, which consists of a primarily fine-grained sand that overlies the Silt-Clay Unit. The monitoring well logs wells are presented in Appendix B. | |||
Cross-Section A-A' (Figure 5.2) is a north-south profile through the east side of the Station. It begins at monitoring well MW-ZN-08S and terminates at MW-ZN-05S. This cross-section transects AFE-Zion-2, AFE-Zion-3, and AFE-Zion-4. This cross-section also shows the relationship between the groundwater and the geology, excavated areas, and reactor containment and building foundations. | |||
Cross-Section B-B' (Figure 5.3) is an west-east profile that runs from monitoring well MW-ZN-07 through the Station to Lake Michigan and intersects AFE-Zion-1 and 045136 (22) Zion Station 28 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||

Shallow groundwater is present at a depth less than 12 feet bgs in the Upper Sand Unit. The shallow water- | 5.2.1 GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTIONS The shallow groundwater flows to the east toward Lake Michigan. The building foundations restrict the groundwater flow, which causes the groundwater to flow around the Station. As mentioned previously, the shallow water table intercepts the stormwater drainage ditches in the west area of the Station property, but does appear to affect the flow of groundwater to the east and toward Lake Michigan. Groundwater flow directions for May 2006 are provided on Figure 5.4, flow directions for July 2006 are provided on Figure 5.5. Both figures present groundwater flow in the shallow groundwater system. The sheet pile wall limits the flow of groundwater towards Lake Michigan. Groundwater between the sheet pile wall and the Turbine Building flows to the north or south around the wall. Although groundwater flow circumscribes the sheet pile wall, a small component of leakage through the wall is expected. | ||
Shallow groundwater flows is generally | The sheet pile wall is constructed of MZ-27 steel sheet piling. MZ-27 sheet piling is comprised of z-shaped sheet steel sections which are 18-inches wide with a 12-inch offset. The sections are 45 feet long, 3/8-inch thick, and weigh 27 pounds per square foot of wall. | ||
The hydraulic gradient ranges from 0.001 feet per foot near the switchyard (west of the Station) to 0.008 feet per foot near the eastern portion of the Station. The hydraulic conductivity of the surficial sands is | 5.2.2 MAN-MADE INFLUENCES ON GROUNDWATER FLOW The building foundations of the main complex extend through the Upper Sand Unit and into the top of the underlying silts and clays. Deep structures include the Reactor Containment Buildings, the Fuel Storage Building, the Auxiliary Building, the Turbine Building, and the crib area. The deep building foundations act as hydraulic barriers for shallow groundwater as is discussed below. | ||

Where multiple samples were collected over | Revision 1 During the construction of the Station, a sheet pile wall was installed along the Lake Michigan shoreline to prevent lake water from entering the excavation. The sheet pile wall was modified over the course of the construction and currently extends to a depth of approximately 45 feet bgs. The top of the sheet pile wall is lined with boulders and forms a breakwall, which is shown on Figure 5.3. | ||
Two samples were collected from two | Shallow groundwater will flow into the stormwater drainage ditches located on the west portion of the Station property. However, the groundwater in this area is upgradient of the PA and areas within the Station that potentially contain tritiated water. As such the groundwater discharge to these stormwater systems is not expected to be impacted by tritium. | ||
5.3.1 | 5.2.3 VERTICAL HYDRAULIC GRADIENTS The Upper Sand Unit is a high permeability unit that is directly connected to Lake Michigan, which is a regional discharge feature, and which generally allows unrestricted lateral groundwater flow. Vertical groundwater flow is limited by the underlying Silt-Clay Unit, which has a low permeability and is approximately 30 feet thick. To the extent that vertical flow can occur, the vertical gradient is expected to be upward based on the artesian pressure observed in the Lower Sand Unit during the 1967 Foundation Investigation (Dames and Moore, 1967). | ||
5.2.4 LATERAL GROUNDWATER FLOW AND VELOCITY Fifteen monitoring wells were installed at the Station as part of the 2006 hydrogeologic investigation. Shallow groundwater is present at a depth less than 12 feet bgs in the Upper Sand Unit. The shallow water-bearing zone is isolated from the underlying regional bedrock aquifers by the underlying Silt-Clay Unit. The Silt-Clay Unit is approximately 30 feet thick and extends approximately 15 feet below the deepest structural feature at the Station. | |||
Shallow groundwater flows is generally towards Lake Michigan. A potentiometric surface contour map is provided on Figure 5.4 (May 2006) and Figure 5.5 (July 2006). | |||
The hydraulic gradient ranges from 0.001 feet per foot near the switchyard (west of the Station) to 0.008 feet per foot near the eastern portion of the Station. The hydraulic conductivity of the surficial sands is expected to be approximately 12 feet per day based on the median measurement from a study conducted along the Illinois-Indiana border of the shallow aquifer along Lake Michigan (USGS, 1996). The velocity of the shallow 045136 (22) Zion Station 30 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||
Revision 1 groundwater may be roughly approximated using the Station-specific hydraulic gradient with the literature value for hydraulic conductivity and a typical value for porosity. Using the hydraulic gradient range of 0.001 to 0.008 feet per foot with a hydraulic conductivity of 12 feet per day and an assumed porosity of 0.32 yields a velocity range of 14 to 110 feet per year (USEPA, 1996). | |||
5.3 GROUNDWATER QUALITY CRA personnel collected groundwater samples from fifteen wells. The samples were analyzed for tritium and additional radionuclides. Teledyne Brown provided the analytical services. The Quality Assurance Program for the laboratory is described in Appendix C. The analytical data reports are provided in Appendix D. | |||
The analytical data presented herein have been subjected to CRA's data validation process. CRA has used the data with appropriate qualifiers where necessary. | |||
The data reported in the figures and tables do not include the results of recounts that the laboratory completed, except if those results ultimately replaced an initial report. The tables and figures, therefore, include only the first analysis reported by the laboratory. | |||
Where multiple samples were collected over time, then the most recent result has been used in the discussion, below. | |||
Two samples were collected from two different elevations in each permanent monitoring well except for monitoring well MW-ZN-09S. The samples were collected at 16 feet above the well bottom for the upper sample and 3 feet above the well bottom for the lower sample. At monitoring well MW-ZN-09S there was not a sufficient depth of water for both samples to be collected and a single sample at MW-ZN-09S was collected at 3 feet above the well bottom, which is the equivalent of an upper sample in the other monitoring wells. | |||

Once tritium enters the body, it disperses quickly and is uniformly distributed throughout the body. Tritium is excreted primarily through urine within a month or so after ingestion. Organically bound tritium (tritium that is incorporated in organic compounds) can remain in the body for a longer period. | |||
Tritium is produced naturally in the upper atmosphere when cosmic rays strike air molecules. Tritium is also produced during nuclear weapons explosions, as a by-product in reactors producing electricity, and in special production reactors, where the isotopes lithium-7 and/or boron-10 are bombarded to produce tritium. | |||
Although tritium can be a gas, its most common form is in water because, like non-radioactive hydrogen, radioactive tritium reacts with oxygen to form water. | |||
Tritium replaces one of the stable hydrogen atoms in the water molecule and is called tritiated water. Like normal water, tritiated water is colorless and odorless. Tritiated water behaves chemically and physically like non-tritiated water in the subsurface, and therefore tritiated water will travel at the same velocity as the average groundwater velocity. | |||
Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12.3 years. It decays spontaneously to helium-3 (3He). This radioactive decay releases a beta particle (low-energy electron). The radioactivity of tritium is the source of the risk of exposure. | |||
Tritium is one of the least dangerous radionuclides because it emits very weak radiation and leaves the body relatively quickly. Since tritium is almost always found as water, it goes directly into soft tissues and organs. The associated dose to these tissues is generally uniform and is dependent on the water content of the specific tissue. | |||
6.3.2 DISTRIBUTION IN STATION GROUNDWATER This section provides an overview of the lateral and vertical distribution of tritium detected in groundwater at the Station. Tritium was detected in groundwater at concentrations exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L. | |||
Tritium concentrations in groundwater are presented on Figure 5.6. Tritium was only detected in groundwater samples from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S in May 2006 from both the upper sampling interval (261 +/- 124 pCi/L, 22 feet bgs) and the lower sampling interval (586 +/- 141 pCi/L, 35 feet bgs).

Groundwater moving within the Upper Sand Unit is separated from the regional bedrock aquifer zones by the | Groundwater in the Upper Sand Unit generally flows to the east and discharges to Lake Michigan. Groundwater flowing in Upper Sand Unit is affected by the building foundations which, in some cases, extend into the underlying glacial silts and clays.

There is no indication from the HIR investigation that tritium-impacted groundwater is migrating off the Station property. | ||
6.3.4 ATTENUATION OF TRITIUM WITHIN THE SHALLOW GROUNDWATER SYSTEM Tritium in the groundwater system would be affected by the infiltration from precipitation recharge. This could result in the upper water table zone of the sand aquifer having lower concentrations of tritium than deeper portions (these upper and lower zones are only separated by 10 feet). | |||
The permeable nature of the Upper Sand Unit also supports attenuation of the tritium through lateral groundwater movement. The dispersion of the tritium as it flows through the Upper Sand Unit along with its natural decay rate will allow for reduction in concentrations over time and with distance from a release into the groundwater. | |||

A person's exposure to tritium is primarily through the ingestion of water (drinking water) or through ingestion of water-bearing food products. Inhalation of tritium requires the water to be in a vapor form (i.e., through evaporation or vaporization due to heating). Inhalation is a minor exposure route when compared to direct ingestion or drinking of tritiated water. | ||
Absorption of tritium through skin is possible, but tritium exposure is more limited here versus direct ingestion or drinking of tritiated water. | |||

CONCENTRATIONS OF TRITIUM The purpose of the following paragraphs is to establish a background concentration through review of various media. | CONCENTRATIONS OF TRITIUM The purpose of the following paragraphs is to establish a background concentration through review of various media. | ||
7.2.1 | 7.2.1 GROUNDWATER Tritium is created in the environment from naturally occurring processes both cosmic and subterranean, as well as from anthropogenic (i.e., man-made) sources. In the upper atmosphere, "cosmogenic" tritium is produced from the bombardment of stable nuclides and combines with oxygen to form tritiated water, which will then enter the hydrologic cycle. Below ground, "lithogenic" tritium is produced by the bombardment of natural lithium isotopes 6Li (92.5% abundance) and 7Li (7.5% abundance) present in crystalline rocks by neutrons produced by the radioactive decay of uranium and thorium. | ||
A major anthropogenic source of tritium | Lithogenic production of tritium is usually negligible compared to other sources due to the limited abundance of lithium in rock. The lithogenic tritium is introduced directly to groundwater. | ||
7.2.2 | A major anthropogenic source of tritium comes from the former atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Levels of tritium in precipitation increased during the 1950s and early 1960s, coinciding with the release of significant amounts of tritium to the atmosphere during nuclear weapons testing prior to the signing of the Limited Test Ban Treaty in 1963, which prohibited atmospheric nuclear tests. | ||
Two publicly available databases that provided tritium concentrations in | 7.2.2 PRECIPITATION DATA Precipitation samples are routinely collected at stations around the world for the analysis of tritium and other radionuclides. Two publicly available databases that provided tritium concentrations in precipitation are Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP) and USEPA's RadNet database. GNIP provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected world wide from 1960 to 2006. | ||
RadNet provides tritium precipitation | RadNet provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected at Stations through the U.S. from 1960 up to and including 2006. | ||
Based on GNIP data for sample stations | Based on GNIP data for sample stations located in the U.S. Midwest including Chicago, St. Louis and Madison, Wisconsin, as well as Ottawa, Ontario, and data from the University of Chicago, tritium concentrations peaked around 1963. This peak, which approached 10,000 pCi/L for some stations, coincided with the atmospheric testing of 045136 (22) Zion Station 40 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | ||

Tritium | Revision 1 thermonuclear weapons. Tritium concentrations showed a sharp decline up until 1975 followed by a gradual decline since that time. Tritium concentrations in Midwest precipitation have typically been below 100 pCi/L since around 1980. | ||

The post-1995 RadNet data, where rounding was not applied, exhibit much more scatter, and similar to | The pre-1995 data were rounded to the nearest 100 pCi/L, which dampened out variances in the data. The post-1995 RadNet data, where rounding was not applied, exhibit much more scatter, and similar to the GNIP data, the vast majority of the data were less than 100 pCi/L. | ||
CRA constructed a non-parametric upper | CRA constructed a non-parametric upper tolerance limit with a confidence of 95 percent and coverage of 95 percent based on RadNet data for USEPA Region 5 from 2004 to 2005. The resulting upper tolerance limit is 133 pCi/L, which indicates that CRA is 95 percent confident that 95 percent of the ambient precipitation concentration results are below 133 pCi/L. The statistical confidence, however, must be compared with the limitations of the underlying RadNet data, which does not include the minimum detectable concentration for a majority of the measurements. Some of the RadNet values below 200 pCi/L may be approximated. Nevertheless, these results show a background contribution for precipitation of up to 133 pCi/L. | ||
7.2.3 SURFACE WATER DATA Tritium concentrations are routinely measured in large surface water bodies, including Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River. Surface water data from the RadNet database for Illinois sampling stations include East Moline (Mississippi River), Moline (Mississippi River), Marseilles (Illinois River), Morris (Illinois River), Oregon (Rock River), and Zion (Lake Michigan). As is the case for the RadNet precipitation data, the pre-September 1995 Illinois surface water data was rounded to the nearest 100 pCi/L, creating a dampening of variances in the data. The post-1995 Illinois surface water data, similar to the post-1995 Midwest precipitation data, were less than 100 pCi/L, with the exception of the Moline (Mississippi River) station. Tritium surface water concentrations at this location varied between 100 and 800 pCi/L, which may reflect local natural or anthropogenic inputs. | |||
The RadNet surface water data typically has a reported 'Combined Standard Uncertainty' of 35 to 50 pCi/L. According to USEPA, this corresponds to a | |||
+/- 70 to 100 pCi/L 95 percent confidence bound on each given measurement. Therefore, 045136 (22) Zion Station 41 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||
Revision 1 the typical background data provided may be subject to measurement uncertainty of approximately +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L. | |||
7.2.4 DRINKING WATER DATA Tritium concentrations in drinking water from the RadNet database for three Illinois sampling stations (Chicago, Morris, and East Chicago) exhibit similar trends as the precipitation and surface water data. As with the precipitation and surface water data, the pre-1995 data have dampened out variances due to rounding the data to the nearest 100 pCi/L. The post-1995 results show tritium concentrations in samples of drinking water were less than 100 pCi/L. | |||
7.2.5 EXPECTED TRITIUM BACKGROUND FOR THE STATION As reported in the GNIP and RadNet databases, tritium concentrations in U.S. Midwest precipitation have typically been less than 100 pCi/L since 1980. Tritium concentrations reported in the RadNet database for Illinois surface water and groundwater, at least since 1995, have typically been less than 100 pCi/L. Based on USEPA Region 5's 2004 to 2005 RadNet precipitation data, 95 percent of the ambient concentrations of tritiated water in Illinois are expected to be less than 133 pCi/L, based on a 95 percent confidence limit. Tritium concentrations in surface water and drinking water at the Station are expected to be comparable or less based on historical data and trends. | |||
Concentrations in groundwater similar to surface water and drinking water are expected to be less than precipitation values. The lower groundwater concentrations are related to the age of the groundwater as compared to the half-life of tritium. Deep aquifers in proximity to crystalline basement rock, however, can potentially show elevated concentrations of tritium due to lithogenic sources. | |||
The Pre-Operational REMP report noted that lake water was sampled at five public water intakes. Generally, the gross beta radioactivity of Lake Michigan was less than 10 pCi/L. Typical values from throughout the Lake were between 3 to 6 pCi/L. Gross alpha radioactivity was typically less than 3 pCi/L (ComEd, 1971). | |||
Tritium levels in Lake Michigan water were studied in the vicinity of Zion throughout 1970 (prior to the construction of the Station). The concentration of tritium in Lake Michigan near Zion ranged from approximately 311 +/- 20 pCi/L to 374 +/- 34 pCi/L and averaged 340 pCi/L. There was no statistical difference in average tritium levels among 045136 (22) Zion Station 42 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||
Revision 1 the sample locations (eight sample locations from Kenosha to Waukegan) | |||
(ComEd, 1971). | |||
As was noted in Section 7.0, the reporting limits for the tritium results are to an LLD of 200 pCi/L. This concentration also represents a reasonable representation of background groundwater quality, given the data for precipitation, surface water, and drinking water. | |||
Based on the evaluation presented above, the background concentration for tritium at the Station is reasonably represented by the LLD of 200 pCi/L. | |||
7.3 IDENTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL EXPOSURE PATHWAYS AND POTENTIAL RECEPTORS There are two potential exposure pathways for tritium originating in or adjacent to the Station: | |||
* potential groundwater migration off the Station property to private and public groundwater users; and | |||
* potential groundwater migration off the Station property to Lake Michigan. | |||
The following section provides an overview of each of these two potential exposure pathways for tritium in groundwater. | |||
7.3.1 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO DRINKING WATER USERS OFF THE STATION PROPERTY Based upon the groundwater and surface water data presented in this HIR, groundwater flow is to the east towards Lake Michigan. The horizontal extent of the elevated concentrations of tritium in the direction of groundwater flow has been established, and is limited to the area around MW-ZN-01S. Tritium was not detected in the four temporary well installed near the shoreline above the LLD of 200 pCi/L. The tritium concentrations in groundwater samples collected from MW-ZN-01S ranged from less than LLD (most recently) to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L (lower interval), 220 +/- 123 pCi/L to 261 +/- 124 pCi/L (upper interval), which are significantly less than the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. No tritium was detected above the LLD (200 pCi/L) in the other fourteen monitoring wells across the Station. In addition, there are no potable water supply wells downgradient of the Station or of monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. | |||
045136 (22) Zion Station 43 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||
Revision 1 The direction of groundwater flow is east towards Lake Michigan. Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD (200 pCi/L) in the four temporary wells located downgradient of MW-ZN-01S. There is no potentially complete exposure pathway, and therefore there is no current risk of exposure associated with groundwater ingestion off the Station property. | |||
7.3.2 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO SURFACE WATER USERS Based upon the groundwater and surface water data presented in this HIR, groundwater flow is to the east towards Lake Michigan. The horizontal extent of the elevated concentrations of tritium is limited to the area around MW-ZN-01S. The tritium concentrations detected in groundwater samples collected from MW-ZN-01S ranged from less than LLD (200 pCi/L) (most recently) to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L (lower interval) and 220 +/- 123 pCi/L to 261 +/- 124 pCi/L (upper interval), which are significantly less than the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. No tritium was detected above the LLD (200 pCi/L) in the other 14 monitoring wells across the Station. In addition, no tritium was detected above the LLD (200 pCi/L) in the downgradient monitoring wells (MW-ZN-11S and TW-ZN-100 through TW-ZN-103) and the surface water sample collected from Lake Michigan at station SW-ZN-01, adjacent to the Station. | |||
The Lake County Public Works Department obtains its water for the City of Zion from Lake Michigan by means of an intake pipe located approximately 1 mile to the north of the Station and extending 3,000 feet into the Lake. Since tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than LLD (200 pCi/L) in the four temporary wells and MW-ZN-11S (which are downgradient of MW-ZN-01S) or the Lake Michigan surface water sample, there is an incomplete exposure pathway. Therefore, there is no current risk of exposure associated with ingestion and recreational use off the Station property. | |||
7.4 | |||
==SUMMARY== | |||
OF POTENTIAL TRITIUM EXPOSURE PATHWAYS There are two potential groundwater exposure pathways for tritium originating at the Station: | |||
* groundwater migration off the Station Property to private and public groundwater users (drinking water exposure); and | |||
* groundwater migration off the Station Property to Lake Michigan (drinking water exposure and recreational exposure). | |||
045136 (22) Zion Station 44 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||
Revision 1 Based upon the groundwater and surface water data provided and referenced in this investigation, none of the potential receptors are at risk of exposure to concentrations of tritium in excess of USEPA drinking water standard (20,000 pCi/L). | |||
7.5 OTHER RADIONUCLIDES Target radionuclides were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in the groundwater and surface water samples collected. Other non-targeted radionuclides were also included in the tables but excluded from discussion in this report. These radionuclides were either a) naturally occurring and thus not produced by the Station, or b) could be definitively evaluated as being naturally occurring due to the lack of presence of other radionuclides which would otherwise indicate the potential of production from the Station. | |||

Revision 1 | |||
== | ==8.0 CONCLUSION== | ||
S Based on all of the studies completed to date at the Zion Station, CRA concludes: | |||
Groundwater Flow | |||
* The water table is in the Upper Sand Unit. The depth to water ranged from 5 to 14 feet bgs. | |||
* The shallow groundwater at the Station generally flows to the east towards Lake Michigan. | |||
* Groundwater flow at the Station is affected by the construction (basements/foundations) of the Reactor, Turbine, and Auxiliary Buildings, which were constructed into the Silt-Clay Unit. These buildings are barriers to lateral flow. | |||
* A sheet pile wall was initially installed to limit the infiltration of Lake Michigan water into the construction excavation for the main Station buildings. The wall currently influences groundwater flow on the east side of the Station by diverting the groundwater around the wall. | |||
Groundwater Quality | |||
* None of the detected tritium concentrations in the groundwater exceeded the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. | |||
* Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD (200 pCi/L) in 14 of the 15 monitoring wells collected as part of this investigation. | |||
* Tritium was detected in groundwater samples collected from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. These concentrations ranged from less than LLD (most recently) to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L (lower interval) and 220 +/- 123 pCi/L to 261 +/- 124 pCi/L (upper interval). | |||
* Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the sample collected as part of this investigation. | |||
* Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L in any sample collected as part of this investigation. | |||
* Tritium is not migrating off the Station property. | |||

Revision 1 Surface Water Quality | |||
* Tritium was not detected in the surface water sample at a concentration greater than the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. | |||
* Tritium was not detected in the surface water sample at a concentration greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L. | |||
* Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their LLDs in the sample collected as part of this investigation. | |||
* Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L in the sample collected as part of this investigation. | |||
AFE-Zion-1: Main Complex Area, AFE-Zion-3: Unit 2 (Northern) AST Area, and AFE-Zion-4: Wastewater Treatment Plant Area | |||
* Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFEs Zion-1, 3, and 4. | |||
* Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFEs-Zion-1, 3, and 4. | |||
* Tritium was detected in groundwater samples collected from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. These concentrations ranged from less than LLD (most recently) to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L (lower interval) and 220 +/- 123 pCi/L to 261 +/- 124 pCi/L (upper interval). The tritium is localized to the area in the vicinity of monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. No tritium was detected in the four temporary wells and MW-ZN-11S, located downgradient of monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. This well is located in close proximity to AFEs Zion 1, 3, and 4. The source of tritium in this location is likely attributable to historical releases in this area. However, the most recent sample results are within the range of background concentrations. | |||
AFE-Zion-2: Unit 1 (Southern) Aboveground Storage Tank (AST) Area | |||
* Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Zion-2. | |||
045136 (22) Zion Station 47 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES | |||
Revision 1 | |||
* Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Zion-2. | |||
* Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells near AFE-Zion-2. | |||
* There have been no impacts to groundwater from AFE-Zion-2. | |||
Potential Receptors Based on the results of this investigation4, there is no current risk from exposure to radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations through any of the identified potential exposure pathways. | |||
General Conclusions | |||
* Based on the results of this investigation, tritium is not migrating off the Station property at detectable concentrations; and | |||
* Based on the results of this investigation, there are no known active releases into the groundwater at the Station. | |||

Revision 1 9.0 RECOMMENDATIONS The following presents CRA's recommendations for proposed activities to be completed at the Station. | |||
9.1 DATA GAPS Based on the results of this hydrogeologic investigation, there are no data gaps remaining to support CRAs conclusions regarding the characterization of the groundwater regime and potential impacts from radionuclides at the Station. | |||
9.2 GROUNDWATER MONITORING Based upon the information collected to date, CRA recommends that Exelon conduct periodic monitoring of selected sample locations. | |||
Temporary Well Abandonment Four temporary wells were installed on the beach between the sheet pile wall and the normal high water mark. These temporary wells are not expected to survive the winter due to storms and ice buildup and should be properly abandoned before the onset of cold weather. | |||

==SUMMARY== | ==SUMMARY== | ||
Water Well Report 'Research Mapping Protocol The Banks Information Solutions, Inc. Water Well Report ' is prepared from existing state water well databases and additional file data/records research conducted at Texas' regulatory authorities. Submission of driller's log records upon completion of a drilled water well became mandatory in 1985. The state of Texas has processed these records into several different filing systems within two state regulatory authorities. The water well files, records and map locations are maintained by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB). Actual water well site locations of this report are geocoded and geoplotted directly from the drilling records, drilling schedules, and driller's logs and maps submitted by the water well driller and maintained at these two primary water well regulatory authorities. Below is a description of the four filing systems utilized for well drilling records. | |||
Water Well Report | Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) | ||
Texas Water Development Board maintains a file system of located water well locations. These well files are water well site locations that have been verified with a field inventory inspection by TWDB personnel. The wells are assigned a State Identification Number unique to that well and plotted on county base maps, U.S.G.S. 7.5 minute topographical quadrangle maps, and in-house geographic information system. Records will also include analytical data attached with each drilling record. This is the current protocol for maintaining water well records within the TWDB. | |||

Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) | Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) | ||
The Texas Commission on Environmental | The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality maintains a file system of plotted, partially numbered, and un-numbered water well locations. Plotted water well files are water well site locations that have been determined from map information submitted on water well logs and subsequently plotted on TWDB county highway base maps. This type of mapping and filing procedure ceased in June 1986. Partially numbered water well files are water well site locations processed from 1986 through 1990. These wells are provided a State Identification Number which establishes the well location somewhere within a 2.5 minute quadrant of a 7.5 minute quadrangle map, but the site location has never been precisely mapped or verified by a State of Texas staff member. Un-numbered water well files are water well site locations that have been processed since June 1990. These well records are filed solely on their county location and are not provided a State Identifiation Number nor are they mapped. This is the current protocol for maintaining water well records within the TCEQ. | ||
Disclaimer Banks Information Solutions, Inc. has performed a thorough and diligent search of all wells recorded with the Texas Water Development Board and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. All mapped locations are based on information obtained from the TWDB and the TCEQ. Although Banks performs quality assurance and quality control on all research projects, we recognize that any inaccuracies of the records and mapped well locations could possibly be traced to the appropriate regulatory authority or the water well driller. Many water well schedules may have never been submitted to the regulatory authority by the water well driller and, thus, may explain the possible unaccountability of private drilled wells. It is uncertain if the above listing provides 100% of the existing well locations within the area of review. Therefore, Banks Information Solutions, Inc. cannot gaurantee the accuracy of the data or well location(s) of those maps and records maintained by Texas' regulatory authorities. | |||

1.0 Knoxville QAM Section Introduction This Quality Assurance Manual (QAM) and related Procedures describes the Knoxville Environmental Services Laboratorys QA system. This system is designed to meet multiple quality standards imposed by Customers and regulatory agencies including: | |||
NRCs 10 CFR 50 Appendix B NRCs Regulatory Guide 4.15 DOEs Order 414.1 DOEs QSAS ANSI N 42.23 ANSI N 13.30 NELAC Standard, Chapter 5 The Environmental Services (ES) Laboratory does low level radioactivity analyses for Power Plants and other customers. It primarily analyzes environmental samples (natural products from around plants such as milk), in-plant samples (air filters, waters), bioassay samples from customers employees, and waste disposal samples (liquids and solids). | |||
Potable and non-potable water samples are tested using methods based on EPA standards as cited in State licenses (see Procedure 4010). The listing [current as of initial printing of this Manual - see current index for revision status and additions / deletions] of implementing Procedures (SOPs) covering Administration, Methods, Counting Instruments, Technical, Miscellaneous, and LIMS is shown in Table 1-1. Reference to these Procedures by number is made throughout this QAM. | |||

This quality system applies to all activities of TBE-ES that affect the quality of analyses performed by the laboratory. | |||
2.1 Policy The TBE quality policy, given in Company Policy P-501, is TBE will continually improve our processes and effectiveness in providing products and services that exceed our customers expectations. | |||
This policy is amplified by this Laboratorys commitment, as attested to by the title page signatures, to perform all work to good professional practices and to deliver high quality services to our customers with full data integrity. (See Section 4.0 and Procedure 1005). | |||
2.2 Quality System Structure The Quality System is operated by the organizations described in Section 3.0 of this Manual. The Quality System is described in this Manual and in the Procedures Manual, both of which are maintained by the QA Manager. Procedures are divided into 6 sections - Administrative, Methods, Equipments, Technical, Miscellaneous, and LIMS. This Manual is structured as shown in the Table of Contents and refers to Procedures when applicable. Cross references to the various imposed quality specifications are contained in Appendices to this Manual. | |||
2.3 Quality System Objectives The Quality System is established to meet the objective of assuring all operations are planned and executed in accordance with system requirements. The Quality System also assures that performance evaluations are performed (see Procedure 4006), and that appropriate verifications are performed (see Procedures in the 1000 and 4000 series) to further assure compliance. Verification includes Page 10 of 32 | |||
examination of final reports (prior to submittal to customers) to determine their quality (see Procedure 4004). | |||
To further these objectives, various in-process assessments of data, as well as assessments of the system, via internal audits and management reviews, are performed. Both internal experts and customer / regulatory agencies perform further assessments of the system and compliance to requirements. | |||
2.4 Personnel Orientation, Training, and Qualification TBE provides indoctrination and training to employees and performs proficiency evaluation of technical personnel. This effort is described in Section 4.0. | |||
Page 11 of 32 | |||
3.0 ORGANIZATION, AUTHORITY, AND RESPONSIBILITY TBE has established an effective organization for conducting laboratory analyses at the Knoxville Environmental Services Laboratory. The basic organization is shown in Figure 3-1. Detail organization charts with names, authorities, and responsibilities are given in Procedure 1002. Job descriptions are given in Procedure 1006. | |||
This organization provides clearly established Quality Assurance authorities, duties, and functions. QA has the organizational freedom needed to: | |||
(1) Identify problems (2) Stop nonconforming work (3) Initiate investigations (4) Recommend corrective and preventive actions (5) Provide solutions or recommend solutions (6) Verify implementation of actions All Laboratory personnel have the authority and resources to do their assigned duties and have the freedom to act on problems. The QA personnel have direct, independent access to Company management as shown in Figure 3-1. | |||

4.0 PERSONNEL ORIENTATION, DATA INTEGRITY, TRAINING, AND QUALIFICATION 4.1 Orientation All laboratory personnel must receive orientation to the quality program if their work can affect quality. Orientation includes a brief review of customer- and regulatory agency-imposed quality requirements, the structure of the QAM, and the implementing procedures. The goal of orientation is to cover the nature and goals of the QA program. | |||
4.2 Data Integrity The primary output of the Laboratory is data. Special emphasis and training in data integrity is given to all personnel whose work provides or supports data delivery. The Laboratory Data Integrity Procedure (Procedure 1005) describes training, personnel attestations, and monitoring operations. Annual reviews are required. | |||
4.3 Training The Quality Assurance Manager (QAM) maintains a training matrix indicating which laboratory personnel need training in which specific Procedures. This matrix is updated when personnel change or change assignments. All personnel are trained per these requirements and procedures. This training program is described in Procedure 1007. The assigned responsibilities for employees are described in Procedure 1002 (See Section 3.0) on Organization and in Procedure 1006, Job Descriptions. Refresher training or re-training is given annually as appropriate. | |||
4.4 Qualification Personnel are qualified as required by their job description. Management and non-analysts are evaluated based on past experience, education, and managements assessment of their capabilities. Formal qualification is required of analysts and related technical personnel who perform laboratory functions. Each applicable person is given training and then formally evaluated by the Operations Manager (or his designees) and by QA. Each analyst must initially demonstrate capability to perform each assigned analytical effort. Each year, thereafter, he or she must perform similar analyses on Interlab Comparison Samples (see Procedure 4006) or on equivalent blanks and spikes samples. Acceptable results extend qualifications (certification). Unacceptable results require retraining in the subject method / Procedures. (See Procedure 1007 for added information, records, forms, etc. used.) | |||
4.5 Records Records of training subjects, contents, attendees, instructors, and certifications are maintained by QA. | |||
Page 13 of 32 | |||
5.0 CUSTOMER INTERFACES 5.1 Interface Personnel The Laboratory has designated Program Managers as the primary interface with all customers. Other interfaces may be the QA Manager or the Lab Operations Manager. | |||
5.2 Bid Requests and Tenders The Program Managers respond to customer requests for bids and proposals per Procedure 1014 for bids, proposals, and contract reviews. They clarify customer requests so both the customer and the lab staff understand requests. As responses are developed, internal reviews are conducted to ensure that requirements are adequately defined and documented and to verify that the Laboratory has adequate resources in physical capabilities, personal skills, and technical information to perform the work. Accreditation needs are reviewed. If subcontracts are required to perform any analysis, the subcontractor is similarly evaluated and the client notified in writing of the effort. Most qualifications are routine with standard pricing and the review of these quotes is performed by the Program Manager. Larger or more complex quotes are reviewed by the Operations Manager and the QA Manager (or designees). Evidence of review is by initialing and dating applicable papers, signatures on quotations, or by memo. | |||
5.3 Contracts The Program Managers receive contract awards (oral or written) and generate the work planning for initiation preparation (charge numbers, data structure or contents in LIMS, etc.). They review contracts for possible differences from quotations and, if acceptable, contracts are processed. Documentation of the review is by initials and date as a minimum. Contract changes receive similar reviews and planning. | |||
5.4 TBEs Expectation of Customers TBE expects customers to provide samples suitable for lab analysis. These expectations include: | |||
Accurate and unambiguous identification of samples Proper collection and preservation of samples Use of appropriate containers free from external and internal contamination Integrity preservation during shipment and timely delivery of samples that are age sensitive Adequate sized samples that allow for retest, if needed Specification of unique MOA/MDC requirements Alerting the lab about abnormal samples (high activity, different chemical contents, etc.) | |||
Chain of custody initiation, when required. | |||
Page 14 of 32 | |||
5.5 Customer Satisfaction TBEs quality policy centers on customer satisfaction (See 2.0). TBE will work to satisfy customers through full compliance with contract requirements, providing accurate data and properly responding to any questions or complaints. | |||
Customers are provided full cooperation in their monitoring of Laboratory performance. Customers are notified if any applicable State Accreditation is withdrawn, revoked, or suspended. | |||
5.5.1 Customer Complaints Any customer complaints are documented and tracked to closure. Most complaints concern analysis data and are received by Program Managers. They log each such complaint, order retests for verification, and provide documented results to customers. Complaints may also be received by QA or Operations. | |||
If complaints are other than re-test type, the nonconformance and corrective action systems (Sections 12 and 13) are used to resolve them and record all actions taken. | |||
5.5.2 Customer Confidentiality All laboratory personnel maintain confidentiality of customer-unique information. | |||
Page 15 of 32 | |||
6.0 DOCUMENTATION GENERATION & CONTROL 6.1 General The documentation generation and control system is detailed in Procedure 1008. An overview is given below. The basic quality system documents are described in Section 2.0. | |||
6.2 New Documentation Each Procedure and this QAM is written by appropriate personnel, validated if applicable (see Section 7.0), reviewed for adequacy, completeness, and correctness, and, if acceptable, accepted by the authorized approver [QA Manager, Operations Manager (or their designee)]. Both approvals are required if a Procedure affects both QA and Operations. (See Responsibilities in Section 3.0). These procedures control the quality measurements and their accuracy. | |||
Each document carries a unique identification number, a revision level, dates, page numbers and total page count, and approver identification and sign off. If TBE writes code for software, the software is version identified and issued after Verification and Validation per Section 7.0. | |||
6.3 Documentation Changes Each change is reviewed in the same manner and by the same people as new documentation. Revision identifications are updated and changes indicated by side bars, italicized words, or by revision description when practical. Obsolete revisions are maintained by QA after being identified as obsolete. | |||
6.4 Documentation Lists and Distributions Computer indexes of documents are maintained by Quality showing the current authorized revision level of each document. These revisions are placed on the Laboratory server and obsolete ones are removed so that all personnel have only the current documents. If hard copies are produced and distributed, separate distribution lists are maintained indicating who has them and their revision level(s). | |||
Copies downloaded off the server are uncontrolled unless verified by the user (on the computer) to be the latest revision. | |||
6.5 Other Documentation In addition to TBE-generated documentation, QA maintains copies of applicable specifications, regulations, and standard methods. | |||
6.6 Documentation Reviews Each issued document is reviewed at least every third year by the approving personnel. This review determines continued suitability for use and compliance with requirements. | |||

The | 7.0 DESIGN OF LABORATORY CONTROLS 7.1 General The Laboratory and its operating procedures are designed specifically for low level (environmental and in-plant) radioactive sample analysis. The various aspects of the laboratory design include the following which are discussed in subsequent paragraphs of this Section: | ||
(a) Facility (b) Technical Processes and Methods (c) Verification of Design of Processes, Methods, and Software. | |||
(d) Design of Quality Controls (e) Counting Instrument Controls 7.2 Facility The facility was designed and built in 2000 to facilitate correct performance of operations in accordance with good laboratory practices and regulatory requirements. It provides security for operations and samples. It separates sample storage areas based on activity levels, separates wet chemistry from counting instrumentation for contamination control, and provides space and electronic systems for documentation, analysis, and record storage. Procedure 4014 describes the facility, room uses, layouts, etc. | |||
7.3 Technical Processes and Methods 7.3.1 Operational Flow The laboratory design provides for sample receipt and storage (including special environmental provisions for perishable items) where samples are received from clients and other labs (see Section 9.0). The samples are logged into the computer based Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and receive unique identification numbers and bar code labels. (See Procedure 4017 for LIMS description and user procedures). The Program Managers then plan the work and assure LIMS contains any special instructions to analysts. Samples then go to sample preparation, wet chemistry (for chemical separation), and counting based on the radionuclides. See Procedures in the 2000 and 3000 series. Analysts perform the required tasks with data being entered into logbooks, LIMS, and counting equipment data systems as appropriate. Results are collected and reviewed by the Operations Manager and Program Managers and reports to clients are generated (See Section 14.0). All records (electronic or hard copy) are maintained in files or in back-up electronic copies (see Section 15.0). After the required hold periods and client notification and approval, samples are disposed of in compliance with regulatory requirements (see Procedures 5003 and 5004). | |||
Page 17 of 32 | |||
7.3.2 Methods The laboratory methods documented in the 2000 and 3000 series of Procedures were primarily developed by senior TBE laboratory personnel based on years of experience at our prior facility in New Jersey. They have been improved, supplemented and implemented here. Where EPA or other accepted national methods exist (primarily for water analyses under State certification programs - see Procedure 4010), the TBE methods conform to the imposed requirements or State accepted alternate requirements. Any method modifications are documented and described in the Procedure. There are no nationally recognized methods for most other analysis methods but references to other method documents are noted where applicable. | |||
7.3.3 Data Reduction and Analysis Whenever possible automatic data capture and computerized data reduction programs are used. Calculations are either performed using commercial software (counting system operating systems) or TBE developed and validated software is used (see 7.4 below). Analysis of reduced data is performed as described in Section 14.0 and Procedure 4004. | |||
7.4 Verification of Technical Processes, Methods, and Software 7.4.1 Operational Flow Verification The entire QA Manual and related procedures describe the verification of elements of the technical process flow and the establishment of quality check points, reviews, and controls. | |||
7.4.2 Method Verifications Methods are verified and validated per Procedure 4007 prior to use unless otherwise agreed to by the client. For most TBE methods initial validation occurred well in the past. New or significantly revised Methods receive initial validation by demonstration of their performance using known analytes (NIST traceable) in appropriate matrices. Sufficient samples are run to obtain statistical data that provides evidence of process capability and control, establishes detection levels (see procedure 4009), bias and precision data (see Procedure 4011). All method procedures and validation data are available to respective clients. Also see Section 7.5 below for the Demonstration of Capability program. | |||
7.4.3 Data Reduction and Analysis Verification Data reduction and analysis verification is performed by personnel who did not generate the data. (See Section 14.0). | |||
7.5 Design of Quality Controls Page 18 of 32 | |||
7.5.1 General There are multiple quality controls designed into the laboratory operations. | |||
Many of these are described elsewhere in this manual and include personnel qualification (Section 4.0), Document control (6.0), Sample identification and control (9.0), Use of reference standards (10.0), intra- and inter- laboratory tests (10.0), etc. | |||
This Section describes the basic quality control systems used to verify Method capability and performance. | |||
7.5.2 Demonstration of Capability (D of C) | |||
The demonstration of capability system verifies and documents that the method, analyst, and the equipment can perform within acceptable limits. The D of C is certified for each combination of analyte, method, and instrument type. D of C's are certified based on objective evidence at least annually. This program is combined with the analyst D of C program (See Section 4.0). Initial D of C's use the method validation effort as covered above. Subsequent D of C's use Inter-Laboratory samples (Procedure 4006) or, if necessary, laboratory generated samples using NIST traceable standards. If results are outside of control limits, re-demonstration is required after investigation and corrective action is accomplished (See Sections 12.0 and 13.0) 7.5.3 Process Control Checks Process control checks are designed to include Inter-Lab samples, Intra-lab QC check samples, and customer provided check samples. 10% of laboratory analysis samples are for process control purposes. | |||

Control Checks Process control checks are designed to include Inter-Lab samples, Intra-lab QC check samples, and customer provided check samples. 10% of laboratory analysis samples are for process control purposes. | |||
7.5.3.1 Inter- Lab Samples. Inter-lab samples are procured or obtained from sources providing analytes of interest in matrices similar to normal client samples. These samples may be used for Demonstration of Capability of analyst's, equipment and methods. They also provide for independent insight into the lab's process capabilities. Any value reported as being in the warning zone (over 2 sigma) is reviewed and improvements taken. Any value failing (over 3 sigma) is documented on an NCR and formal investigation per Section 12.0 and 13.0 is performed. If root causes are not clearly understood and fixed, re-tests are required using lab prepared samples (See Procedure 4006). | 7.5.3.1 Inter- Lab Samples.

If root causes are not clearly understood and fixed, re-tests are required using lab prepared samples (See Procedure 4006). | ||
7.5.3.2 QC Samples. QC samples, along with Inter-lab samples and customer check samples, are 10% of the annual lab workload for the applicable analyte and method. If batch processing is used, some specifications require specific checks with each batch or each day rather than as continuous process controls. (See Procedure 4005) | 7.5.3.2 QC Samples. QC samples, along with Inter-lab samples and customer check samples, are 10% of the annual lab workload for the applicable analyte and method. If batch processing is used, some specifications require specific checks with each batch or each day rather than as continuous process controls. | ||
(See Procedure 4005) | |||
QC samples consist of multiple types of samples including: | QC samples consist of multiple types of samples including: | ||
(a) Method blanks (b) Blank spikes (c) Matrix spikes Page 19 of 32 | |||
(a) | |||
(d) Duplicates (e) Tracers and carriers Acceptance limits for these samples are given in Procedures or in lab standards. The number, frequency, and use of these sample types varies with the method, matrix, and supplemental requirements. The patterns of use versus method and the use of the resulting test data is described in Procedure 4005. | |||
Instrument Controls The calibration of instruments is their primary control and is described in Section 11.0. In addition, counting procedures (3000 series) also specify use of background checks (method blank data is not used for this) to evaluate possible counting equipment contamination. Instrument calibration checks using a lab standard from a different source than the one used for calibration are also used. Background data can be used to adjust client and test data. Checks with lab standards indicate potential calibration changes. | 7.5.3.3 Customer Provided Check Samples. Customers may provide blind check samples and duplicates to aid in their evaluation of the Laboratory. When the lab is notified that samples are check samples their results are included in the QC sample percentage counts. Any reported problems are treated as formal complaints and investigated per Section 5. | ||
7.6 Counting Instrument Controls The calibration of instruments is their primary control and is described in Section 11.0. In addition, counting procedures (3000 series) also specify use of background checks (method blank data is not used for this) to evaluate possible counting equipment contamination. Instrument calibration checks using a lab standard from a different source than the one used for calibration are also used. | |||
Background data can be used to adjust client and test data. Checks with lab standards indicate potential calibration changes. | |||

9.0 TEST SAMPLE IDENTIFICATION AND CONTROL 9.1 Sample Identification Incoming samples are inspected for customer identification, container condition, chain of custody forms, and radioactivity levels. If acceptable, the sample information is entered into LIMS which generates bar coded labels for attachment to the sample(s). The labels are attached and samples stored in the assigned location. | |||
Control The sample, with its bar coded label, is logged out to the applicable lab operation where the sample is processed per the applicable methods | If environmental controls are needed (refrigeration, freezing, etc.), the samples are placed in these storage locations. If not acceptable, the Program Manager is notified, the customer contacted, and the problem resolved (return of sample, added data receipts, etc.). See Procedure 4003 for more information on sample receipt. | ||
Page | 9.2 LIMS The LIMS is used to schedule work, provide special information to analysts, and record all actions taken on samples. See Procedure 4017 and the 6000 series of procedures for more information on LIMS operations. | ||
9.3 Sample Control The sample, with its bar coded label, is logged out to the applicable lab operation where the sample is processed per the applicable methods (Procedures 2000 and 3000). The LIMS-assigned numbers are used for identification through all operations to record data. Data is entered into LIMS, log books (kept by the analysts) or equipment data systems to record data. The combination of LIMS, logbooks, and equipment data systems provide the Chain of Custody data and document all actions taken on samples. Unused sample portions are returned to its storage area for possible verification use. Samples are discarded after required time limits are passed and after client notification and approval, if required. | |||

Page 25 of 32 | |||
11.0 EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE AND CALIBRATION 11.1 General There are two types of equipment used by the Laboratory: support equipment (scales, glassware, weights, thermometers, etc.) and instruments for counting. Standards traceable to NIST are used for calibration and are of the needed accuracy for laboratory operations. Procedures 1009, 4018, and 4019 describe the calibration and maintenance programs. | |||
11.2 Support Equipment Analytical support equipment is purchased with the necessary accuracies and appropriate calibration data. If needed, initial calibration by the Laboratory or its calibration vendor is performed. Recalibration schedules are established and equipment recalibrated by the scheduled date by a calibration vendor or by Laboratory personnel. Maintenance is performed, as needed, per manufacturers manuals or lab procedures. | |||
In addition to calibrations and recalibrations, checks are made on the continued accuracy of items as described in Procedure 1009. Records are maintained of calibration and specified checks. | In addition to calibrations and recalibrations, checks are made on the continued accuracy of items as described in Procedure 1009.

12.0 NONCONFORMANCE CONTROLS 12.1 General The nonconformance control system is implemented whenever a nonconforming condition on any aspect of Laboratory analysis, testing, or results exist. The system takes graded actions based on the nature and severity of the nonconformance. Nonconforming items or processes are controlled to prevent inadvertent use. Nonconformances are documented and dispositioned. Notification is made to affected organizations, including clients. Procedure 1010 describes the procedures followed. Sample results are only reported after resolution. | |||
12.2 Responsibility and Authority Each Laboratory employee has the responsibility to report nonconformances and the authority to stop performing nonconforming work or using nonconforming equipment. Laboratory supervision can disposition and take corrective actions on minor problems. Any significant problem is documented by QA using the Laboratorys NCR system per Procedure 1010. QA conducts or assures the conduct of cause analyses, disposition of items or data, and initiation of corrective action if the nonconformance could recur. | |||
12.3 10CFR21 Reporting The QA Manager reviews NCRs for possible need of customer and/or NRC notification per the requirements of 10CFR21. Procedure 1011 is followed in this review and for any required reporting. | |||
Page 28 of 32 | |||
13.0 CORRECTIVE AND PREVENTIVE ACTIONS 13.1 General The Laboratory takes corrective actions on significant nonconformances (see Section 12.0). It also initiates preventive and improvement actions per the Company Quality Policy (see Section 2.0). The procedures for Corrective Action/Preventive Action systems are contained in Procedure 1012. | |||
13.2 Corrective Actions Corrective actions are taken by Operations and Quality to promptly correct significant conditions adverse to quality. The condition is identified and cause analysis is performed to identify root causes. Solutions are evaluated and the optimum one selected that will prevent recurrence, can be implemented by the Laboratory, allows the Laboratory to meet its other goals, and is commensurate with the significance of the problem. All steps are documented, action plans developed for major efforts, and reports made to Management. QA verifies the implementation effectiveness. Procedure 1012 provides instructions and designates authorities and responsibilities. | |||
13.3 Preventive Actions Preventive actions are improvements intended to reduce the potential for nonconformances. Possible preventive actions are developed from suggestions from employees and from analysis of Laboratory technical and quality systems by management. If preventive actions or improvements are selected for investigation, the issues, investigation, recommendations, and implementation actions are documented. Follow up verifies effectiveness. | |||

14.0 RESULTS ANALYSIS AND REPORTING 14.1 General The Laboratorys role is to provide measurement-based information to clients that is technically valid, legally defensible, and of known quality. | |||
14.2 Results Review The results obtained from analytical efforts are collected and reviewed by the Operations Manager and the Program Manager. This review verifies the reasonableness and consistency of the results. It includes review of sample and the related QC activity data. Procedure 4002 describes the process. Any deficiencies are corrected by re-analyses, recalculations, or corrective actions per Sections 12.0 and 13.0. Use of the LIMS with its automatic data loading features (see Procedure 4017) minimizes the possibility of transcription or calculation errors. | |||
14.3 Reports Reports range from simple results reporting to elaborate analytical reports based on the client requirements and imposed specifications and standards. (See Procedure 4004.) Reports present results accurately, clearly, unambiguously, objectively, and as required by the applicable Method(s). Reports include reproduction restrictions, information on any deviations from methods, and any needed data qualifiers based on QC data. If any data is supplied by analytical subcontractors (see Section 8.0), it is clearly identified and attributed to that Laboratory by either name or accreditation number. | |||
If results are faxed or transmitted electronically, confidentiality statements are included in case of receipt by other than the intended client. | |||
Reports are approved by the Program Manager and Operations Manager and record copies kept in file (See Section 15.0). | Reports are approved by the Program Manager and Operations Manager and record copies kept in file (See Section 15.0). | ||

Records may be destroyed after the retention period and after client notification and acceptance, if required. If the Laboratory closes, records will go in to company storage in Huntsville unless otherwise directed by customers. If the Laboratory is sold, either the new owner will accept record ownership or the records will go into Company | 15.0 RECORDS 15.1 General The Laboratory collects generated data and information related to quality or technical data and maintains them as records. Records are identified, prepared, reviewed, placed in storage, and maintained as set forth in Procedure 1003. | ||
Page | 15.2 Type of Records All original observations, calculations, derived data, calibration data, and test reports are included. In addition QA data such as audits, management reviews, corrective and preventive actions, manuals, and procedures are included. | ||
15.3 Storage and Retention Records are stored in files after completion in the lab. Files are in specified locations and under the control of custodians. Filing systems provide for retrieval. | |||
Electronic files are kept on Company servers (with regular back up) or on media stored in fireproof file cabinets. Records are kept in Laboratory files for at least 2 years after the last entry and then in Company files for another year as a minimum. | |||
Some customers specify larger periods - up to 7 years - which is also met. Generic records supporting multiple customers are kept for the longest applicable period. | |||
15.4 Destruction or Disposal Records may be destroyed after the retention period and after client notification and acceptance, if required. If the Laboratory closes, records will go in to company storage in Huntsville unless otherwise directed by customers. If the Laboratory is sold, either the new owner will accept record ownership or the records will go into Company storage as stated above. | |||

16.1 General Assessments consist of internal audits and management reviews as set forth in Procedure 1013. | 16.0 ASSESSMENTS 16.1 General Assessments consist of internal audits and management reviews as set forth in Procedure 1013. | ||
16.2 Audits Internal audits are planned, performed at least annually on all areas of the quality system, and are performed by | 16.2 Audits Internal audits are planned, performed at least annually on all areas of the quality system, and are performed by qualified people who are as independent as possible from the activity audited. (The Laboratorys small size inhibits full independence in some technical areas.) Audits are coordinated by the Quality Manager who assures audit plans and checklists are generated and the results documented. Reports include descriptions of any findings and provide the auditors assessment of the effectiveness of the audited activity. Report data includes personnel contacted. | ||
Audit findings are reviewed with management and corrective actions agreed to and scheduled. Follow up is performed by QA to verify accomplishment and effectiveness of the corrective action. | |||
16.3 Management Reviews The Annual Quality Assurance Report, prepared for some clients, is the Management Review vehicle. These reports cover audit results, corrective and preventive actions, external assessments, and QC and inter-laboratory performance checks. The report is reviewed with Management by the QA Manager for the continued suitability of the Quality Program and its effectiveness. Any needed improvements are defined, documented, and implemented. Follow ups are made to verify implementation and effectiveness. | |||

SUMMARY
This Hydrogeologic Investigation Report (HIR) documents the results of Conestoga-Rovers & Associates' (CRA's) May to July 2006 hydrogeologic investigation pertaining to the Zion Station (Station). CRA prepared this HIR for Exelon as part of its Fleetwide Program to determine whether groundwater at and in the vicinity of its nuclear power generating facilities has been adversely impacted by any releases of radionuclides.
CRA collected and analyzed information on any historical releases, the structures, components, and areas of the Station that have the potential to release tritium or other radioactive liquids to the environment and past hydrogeologic investigations at the Station. CRA used this information, combined with its understanding of groundwater flow at the Station to identify the Areas for Further Evaluation (AFEs) for the Station.
Fifteen new monitoring wells were installed, including 11 permanent and 4 temporary monitoring wells. CRA also collected two rounds of water levels from the newly installed wells and the surface water staff gauge. All groundwater and surface water samples were analyzed for tritium, strontium-89/90, and gamma-emitting radionuclides. Field activities were completed between May and July 2006.
The results of the hydrogeologic investigation are:
- Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective Lower Limits of Detection (LLDs) in any of the groundwater or surface water samples obtained and analyzed during the course of this investigation;
- Strontium-89/90 was not detected at a concentration greater than the LLD of 2.0 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L) in any of the groundwater or surface water samples obtained and analyzed during the course of this investigation;
- Tritium was not detected within any area in or adjacent to the Station at levels above the United States Environmental Protection Agency drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L in any of the groundwater or surface water samples obtained and analyzed during the course of this investigation;
- Low levels of tritium were detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L, which is considered background;
- Tritium was detected in groundwater samples collected from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. These concentrations ranged from less than LLD (most recently) to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L (lower interval) and 220 +/- 123 pCi/L to 261 +/- 124 pCi/L (upper 045136 (22) Zion Station i CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 interval). The detected concentrations are significantly less than applicable drinking water standard. The source of tritium in this location is likely attributable to historical releases in this area. However, the most recent sample results are within the range of background concentrations;
- Based on the results of this investigation, tritium is not migrating off the Station property at detectable concentrations;
- Based on the results of this investigation, there is no current risk from exposure to radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations through any of the identified potential exposure pathways; and
- Based on the results of this investigation, there are no known active releases into the groundwater at the Station.
Based upon the information collected to date, CRA recommends that Exelon conduct periodic monitoring of selected sample locations.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Conestoga-Rovers & Associates (CRA) has prepared this Hydrogeologic Investigation Report (HIR) for Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) as part of its fleetwide program to determine whether groundwater at and near its nuclear power generating facilities has been adversely impacted by any releases of radionuclides. This report documents the results of CRA's May 2006 Hydrogeologic Investigation Work Plan (Work Plan), as well as several other investigative tasks recommended by CRA during the course of the investigation. These investigations pertain to Exelon's Zion Station (Station) in Zion, Illinois (see Figure 1.1). The Station is defined as all property, structures, systems, and components owned and operated by Exelon LLC and located at 101 Shiloh Boulevard, Zion, Lake County, Illinois. The approximate property boundaries are depicted on Figure 1.2.
Pursuant to the Work Plan, CRA assessed groundwater quality at the Station in locations designated as areas for further evaluation (AFEs). The process by which CRA identified AFEs is discussed in Section 3.0 of this report.
The objectives of the Work Plan were to:
- characterize the geologic and hydrogeologic conditions at the Station including subsurface soil types, the presence or absence of confining layers, and the direction and rate of groundwater flow;
- characterize the groundwater/surface water interaction at the Station, including a determination of the surface water flow regime;
- evaluate groundwater quality at the Station including the vertical and horizontal extent, quantity, concentrations, and potential sources of tritium and other radionuclides in the groundwater, if any;
- define the probable sources of any radionuclides released at the Station;
- evaluate potential human, ecological, or environmental receptors of any radionuclides that might have been released to the groundwater; and
- evaluate whether interim response activities are warranted.

Revision 1 2.0 STATION DESCRIPTION The following section presents a general summary of the Station location and definition, overview of Station operations, surrounding land use, and an overview of both regional and Station-specific topography, surface water features, geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater flow conditions. This section also presents an overview of groundwater use in the area.
2.1 STATION LOCATION The Station is a former nuclear power generating facility that, in the early spring of 1998, converted both units' generators to synchronous condensers that provide voltage stability to the northeast Illinois power grid. The Station encompasses approximately 250 acres (Exelon, 2004). Figure 1.2 presents a Station Boundaries and Features plan.
The Station is located on the eastern edge of Zion between 23rd and 29th Streets, from the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad tracks to Lake Michigan.
The Station is being maintained and monitored under the "SAFSTOR" (safe storage of components of the nuclear power plant) phase of decommissioning, as is discussed below.
2.2 OVERVIEW OF COOLING WATER OPERATIONS Former Operations In the mid-1950s, Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) purchased about 250 acres on the eastern edge of Zion. The Station operated as a dual unit pressurized water reactor plant. A construction permit was issued in December 1968. An operating license was issued October 19, 1973 for Unit 1 and November 14, 1973 for Unit 2. Commercial operations commenced in December 1973 for Unit 1 and September 1974 for Unit 2.
Unit 1 operations ended on February 21, 1997 and Unit 2 operations ended on September 19, 1996. All fuel was removed from the reactor and placed in the spent fuel pool on April 27, 1997 for Unit 1 and on February 25, 1998 for Unit 2. Commercial operation of the plant ended on January 14, 1998 when the Unicom Corporation and ComEd Boards of Directors authorized the permanent cessation of operations at the Station. Exelon submitted the certification of fuel transfer on March 9, 1998. In addition 045136 (22) Zion Station 2 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 to maintaining the synchronous condensers, the Station's employees also monitor the safe storage of spent fuel.
Discharges from the Station are subject to the requirements of Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Operating Licenses DPR-39 and DPR-48. Discharges from the Station are also subject to regulation under the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit IL0002763.
The NPDES permit provides limits on parameters such as pH, total suspended solids, and oil and grease.
Cooling Water Operations 1973-1997 The Station is comprised of two nearly identical pressurized water reactors with supporting facilities. Both primary reactor coolant systems were designed by Westinghouse Corporation and each is comprised of a reactor vessel and four heat transfer loops. Each loop contains a reactor coolant pump, steam generator, and associated piping and valves. In addition, each system includes a pressurizer, a pressurizer relief tank, interconnecting piping, and the instrumentation necessary for operational control.
Each Containment Building is cylindrical with a shallow dome roof and has a flat slab foundation. The entire structure is internally lined with a welded steel plate and completely encloses the primary coolant system, steam generators, reactor coolant loops, and portions of the auxiliary and engineered safety feature systems.
Heat produced in the reactor was converted to electrical energy by the power conversion system between 1973 and 1997. A turbine generator converted the thermal energy of steam produced in the steam generators into mechanical shaft power and then into electrical energy.
The exhaust steam from the turbine was condensed and deaerated in the main condenser. The waste heat in the main condenser was removed by the circulating water system. Circulating water was withdrawn from Lake Michigan, approximately 450 feet east of the condensate storage tank, via an intake pipe connected to the circulating water pumps. After circulating through the plant condensers, the cooling water was routed back to the lake via discharge lines (ComEd, 1999).
Primary coolant was treated to remove impurities and recirculated through the primary water (PW) system. Primary coolant was stored in two above ground storage tanks (ASTs) located on the east side of the Turbine Building.
045136 (22) Zion Station 3 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 Secondary cooling water (condensate cooling water) was treated to remove impurities and recirculated through the condensate (CD/SC) system. Secondary cooling water is stored in ASTs located on the east side of the Turbine Building.
Circulating water is drawn from Lake Michigan by way of an intake pipe that extends approximately a half mile into the Lake. Circulating water is returned to Lake Michigan by way of two discharge pipes that extend approximately a quarter mile into the lake.
Liquid wastes have been discharged under the NRC permit through the blowdown line, which is piped to the circulating water discharge pipe located east of the Turbine Building.
Voltage Stabilization and SAFSTOR The Station is being decommissioned under the NRC regulatory process. The Station is currently in the "SAFSTOR" phase of the decommissioning process where the Station is maintained in a condition that allows it to be safely stored and subsequently decontaminated to levels that permit its release for unrestricted use.
2.3 SURROUNDING LAND USE The Station is located on the shore of Lake Michigan, in the eastern portion of the City of Zion, and adjacent to the Illinois Beach State Park.
The Illinois Beach State Park is located along the Lake Michigan shoreline and is divided into a northern unit and a southern unit, with the Station situated between the two units.
The Illinois Beach State Park encompasses 4,160 acres and received approximately 2.75 million visitors in 1998. The Park is considered a natural resource (ATSDR, 2000).
The land located to the west of the Station is generally undeveloped with a limited number of industrial/commercial facilities present along Deborah Avenue. Residential areas and the City of Zion downtown are located west of the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad, which is west of the Station. Lake Michigan borders the Station to the east.

Revision 1 2.4 STATION SETTING The following sections present a summary of the topography, surface water features, geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater flow conditions in the region surrounding the Station. The information was primarily gathered from Sections 2.1 and 2.3 of the Zion Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DSAR) last revision dated October 2004 (Exelon, 2004).
The main references the DSAR relies upon are listed in Section 10.0 of this HIR. CRA checked and verified all DSAR references that apply to this HIR.
2.4.1 TOPOGRAPHY AND SURFACE WATER FEATURES Lake County consists of moraines, outwash plains, lake plains, kames, stream terraces, flood plains, beaches, and bogs. The county is in the Wheaton Morainal country of the Great Lakes section of the Central Lowland province. Relief in Lake County was caused by differences in the thickness of deposits left by the most recent glacier. The land surface gradually slopes to the south or southeast. The highest point in the county, 957 feet above mean sea level (AMSL), is located on Gander Mountain in the northwest corner of the county. The lowest point is at the Lake Michigan shore near Waukegan.
Several moraines run through the county. From east to west, they are the Lake Border Morainic System, the Tinley Moraine, the Valparaiso Morainic System, and the Fox Lake Moraine. In general, Lake County has a poorly defined drainage pattern. Many drainage ways terminate in depressions and marshes. The land area falls into four major watersheds and 26 drainage basins. The Chicago River, Des Plaines River, Fox River, and Lake Michigan watersheds are all shared with neighboring counties in Illinois and Wisconsin (NRCS, 2005).
The Lake Michigan shoreline between North Chicago, Illinois and Kenosha, Wisconsin comprises the Zion beach-ridge plain. The Zion beach-ridge plain consists of linear, generally coast-parallel mounds of sand and gravel that have been built up by wave action to extend the coast outward into Lake Michigan. The Zion beach-ridge plain has a maximum width of approximately 1 mile near the City of Zion (Chrzastowski and Frankie, 2000). The older dunes become root-bound by vegetation resulting in long lines of sandy ridges separated by linear marshes.
The main portion of the Station is located on a sand ridge that runs parallel to the Lake Michigan shoreline as shown on Figure 1.2. The area in the immediate vicinity of the Station has been leveled and is paved. The ground elevation at the main complex is 591 feet AMSL. The average lake level is 577 feet AMSL. The eastern portion of the 045136 (22) Zion Station 5 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 Station is a beach gently sloping to the Lake Michigan shoreline. The area to the west of the Station is a low-lying wet area.
Lake Michigan has a surface area of 22,300 square miles, with a mean depth of 276 feet and a volume of 1,170 cubic miles. Lake Michigan has a natural outlet through the Straits of Mackinac on the north end of the lake and a second outlet through the Illinois Waterway near Chicago (USEPA, 1995).
The average surface elevation of Lake Michigan is 577 feet AMSL. The surface elevation of Lake Michigan varies daily and annually, and is affected by hydrologic and atmospheric conditions and flow through the two outlets. Water levels in Lake Michigan typically vary about 1 foot in elevation between annual low and high measurements. Generally, the lowest levels occur in winter when much of the precipitation is locked up in ice and snow on land, and dry winter air masses pass over the lakes enhancing evaporation. Levels are highest in summer after the spring thaw when runoff increases (USEPA, 1995).
The low-lying wet area on the western portion of the Station is in the watershed of the Dead River, which flows through the marshy swales located to the west of the longitudinal sand dunes that follow the Lake Michigan shoreline. The Dead River passes through the Illinois Beach State Park as shown on Figure 1.1. The Dead River flows into Lake Michigan at a point approximately 2.3 miles south of the Station. The Dead River was so named because the mouth is periodically blocked by shifting sandbars on the Lake Michigan shoreline.
Storm water runoff from the switchyard is captured by the perimeter ditch, which is a drainage channel that follows the Station's outer fence. The perimeter ditch connects to Lake Michigan to the north and south of the Protected Area (PA). Figure 2.1 presents a depiction of the perimeter ditch and the stormwater drainage ditches that control surface water at the Station. On the western portion of the Station property some of these drainage systems intercept the shallow groundwater. This is not the case on the eastern portion of the Station property where the stormwater drainage system is located above the water table as it drops towards Lake Michigan.
2.4.2 GEOLOGY This section presents an overview of Station geology based upon the 1967 Foundation Investigation (Dames and Moore, 1967) and other geologic publications. The Station is underlain by overburden deposits and a regionally extensive sequence of consolidated 045136 (22) Zion Station 6 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 sedimentary deposits. The major stratigraphic features can be divided into Paleozoic aged bedrock and Quaternary Period overburden deposits. Figure 2.2 presents a stratigraphic cross-section representative of bedrock units in Lake County, Illinois.
Figure 2.3 presents a cross-section of the overburden deposits associated with the Zion beach-ridge plain.
Rocks of the Cambrian through Silurian Periods are marine in origin and were deposited in a sea that covered all of Illinois (Willman, 1971). The rocks consist of sandstones, shales, and carbonates for a combined thickness of approximately 2,500 feet. Southerly long shore currents have eroded the Root River delta and transported the sediments along the western shore of Lake Michigan to form the Zion beach-ridge plain (Chrzastowski and Frankie, 2000).
2.4.3 HYDROGEOLOGY Groundwater in the region occurs in shallow glacial, alluvial, and lacustrine deposits.
The shallow water-bearing zone is isolated from the underlying regional bedrock aquifers by a significant thickness of glacial or lacustrine silts and clays.
Bedrock units form three major aquifer systems in northeastern Illinois. The uppermost bedrock aquifer consists of the Silurian dolomites. The underlying Maquoketa Group shales hydraulically separate the Silurian aquifer from deeper units.
The deeper aquifer systems include the Cambrian-Ordovician aquifer group, which includes the St. Peter and Ironton-Galesville sandstones. The underlying Eau Claire Formation hydraulically separates the Cambrian-Ordovician aquifer group from the deeper Mt. Simon Aquifer (Visocky et al., 1985).
The sandstones of the Mt. Simon Formation are not typically used for potable water because of undesirable characteristics including high concentrations of total dissolved solids and natural radioactivity. Crystalline basement rock underlies the Mt. Simon Formation (Visocky et al., 1985).
Lake Michigan acts as a major regional discharge zone for groundwater. The groundwater flow in both unconsolidated deposits and bedrock units in the region is generally toward the lake; however, localized pumping induces variations in flow directions in the bedrock aquifers.

Revision 1 2.5 AREA GROUNDWATER USE A water well inventory compiled as part of this investigation indicates a number of wells located (or formerly located) near the Station. The locations of wells in the vicinity of the Station are provided on Figure 2.4. A water well report was prepared using Illinois water well databases and associated well logs, and is provided in Appendix A.
The well records for locations nearest to the Station (map identifiers 5, 6, and 10) are mis-located (Map Id. 51), not a water well (Map Id. 62), or no longer exist (Map Ids. 6 and 103). With the exception of Map Ids. 6 and 10, the wells identified in the water well report have not been field verified and it is expected that many of the wells listed have been abandoned.
The City of Zion provides municipal water to the City residents and the surrounding area. The City purchases water from the Lake County Public Water District (LCPWD).
The LCPWD obtains its water from Lake Michigan by means of an intake pipe located approximately 1.1 mile north of the Station and extending 3,000 feet into the Lake. The City of Zion municipal code requires all improved properties to be connected to the City's water supply. It is "unlawful for any person to construct, permit or maintain a private well or water supply system within the City which uses groundwater as a potable water supply" (City of Zion, 2004). The only exception is for existing wells constructed prior to March 2, 2004 at properties located more than 100 feet from the municipal supply system, which must: 1) enter into an agreement with the City, and
- 2) demonstrate that the well water is unlikely to contain any contaminant at concentrations exceeding the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) drinking water standards (City of Zion, 2004).
The Station is connected to the Zion municipal water supply and does not use groundwater in its operations. The Illinois Beach State Park is serviced by municipal water.
1 Map ID 5 is a private water well at Lot #1, Beach Homeland subdivision, Beach Park, Illinois.
The latitude and longitude listed in the ISWS database is inconsistent with the address listed in the well log (Beach Park is located between Zion and Waukegan).
2 Map ID 6 is an engineering test hole installed by Norm Hester of the ISGS on November 1, 1972.
The total depth was 15 feet. This boring was installed as part of a study documented in Fraser and Hester (1974).
3 Map ID 10 is a water well installed by F H Ferguson at 'Zion Estates' at an unknown date. The total depth of the well was 138 feet. The location specified in the well record (42.446046N, 87.800889W) indicates that this well was located on the eastern edge of what is now the Zion Station. 'Zion Estates' may have been part of the Hosah Beach subdivision (see Bannon-Nilles 2003) which was purchased by ComEd in about 1967. This well is not currently present at the Zion Station.

Revision 1 3.0 AREAS FOR FURTHER EVALUATION CRA considered all Station operations in assessing groundwater quality at the Station.
During this process, CRA identified areas at the Station that warranted further evaluation or "AFEs". This section discusses the process by which AFEs were selected.
CRA's identification of AFEs involved the following components:
- Station inspection on March 22 to 23, 2006;
- interviews with Station personnel;
- evaluation of Station systems;
- investigation of confirmed and unconfirmed releases of radionuclides; and
- review of previous Station investigations.
CRA analyzed the information collected from these components combined with information obtained from CRA's study of hydrogeologic conditions at the Station to identify those areas where groundwater potentially could be impacted from operations at the Station.
CRA then designed an investigation to determine whether any confirmed or potential releases or any other release of radionuclides adversely affected groundwater. This entailed evaluating whether existing Station groundwater monitoring systems were sufficient to assess the groundwater quality at the AFEs. If the systems were not sufficient to adequately investigate groundwater quality associated with any AFE, additional monitoring wells were installed by CRA.
The following sections describe the above considerations and the identification of AFEs.
The results of CRA's investigation are discussed in Section 5.0.
3.1 SYSTEMS EVALUATIONS Exelon launched an initiative to systematically assess the structures, systems and components that store, use, or convey potentially radioactively contaminated liquids.
Maps depicting each of these systems were developed and provided to CRA for review.
The locations of these systems are presented on Figure 3.1. The Station identified a total of 17 systems that contain or could contain potentially radioactively contaminated liquids. The following presents a list of these systems.

Revision 1 System Identification Description AD Auxiliary Drains AX Auxiliary Steam BD Blowdown System CF Cavity Fill CW Circulating Water VC Chemical and Volume Control CC Component Cooling CD/SC Condensate and Condensate Storage MS Main Steam PW Primary Water RR Resin Removal SI Safety Injection SW Service Water SF Spent Fuel TD Turbine Building Drains WD Waste Disposal WT Waste Water After these systems were identified, Exelon developed a list of the various structures, components and areas of the systems (e.g., piping, tanks, and process equipment) that handle or could potentially handle any radioactively contaminated liquids. The structures, components, and areas may include:
- aboveground storage tanks;
- condensate vents;
- areas where confirmed or potential historical releases, spills, or accidental discharges may have occurred;
- pipes;
- pools;
- surface water bodies (i.e., basins, pits, ponds, or lagoons);
- trenches;
- underground storage tanks; and
- vaults.
045136 (22) Zion Station 10 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 The Station then individually evaluated the various system components to determine the potential for any release of radioactively contaminated liquid to enter the environment. Each structure or identified component was evaluated against the following seven primary criteria:
- location of the component (i.e., basement or second floor of building);
- component construction material (i.e., stainless steel or steel tanks);
- construction methodologies (i.e., welded or mechanical pipe joints);
- concentration of radioactively contaminated liquid stored or conveyed;
- amount of radioactively contaminated liquid stored or conveyed;
- existing controls (i.e., containment and detection); and
- maintenance history.
System components, which were located inside a building or that otherwise had some form of secondary containment, such that a release of radioactively contaminated liquid would not be discharged directly to the environment, were eliminated from further evaluation. System components that are not located within buildings or did not have some other form of secondary containment were retained for further qualitative evaluation of the risk of a release of radioactively contaminated liquid to the environment and the potential magnitude of any release.
Exelon's risk evaluation took into consideration factors such as:
- the potential concentration of radionuclides;
- the volume of liquid stored or managed;
- the probabilities of the systems actually containing radioactively contaminated liquid; and
- the potential for a release of radioactively contaminated liquid from the system component.
These factors were then used to rank the systems and system components according to the risk for a potential release of a radioactively contaminated liquid to the environment.
The evaluation process resulted in the identification of structures, components, and areas to be considered for further evaluation.
045136 (22) Zion Station 11 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 3.2 HISTORICAL RELEASES CRA also reviewed information concerning confirmed or potential historical releases of radionuclides at the Station, including reports and documents previously prepared by Exelon and compiled for CRA's review. CRA evaluated this information in identifying the AFEs. Any historical releases identified during the course of this assessment that may have a current impact on Station conditions are further discussed in Section 3.4.
3.3 STATION INVESTIGATIONS CRA considered previous Station investigations in the process of selecting the AFEs for the Station. This section presents a summary of the pre-operational radiological environmental monitoring program (pre-operational REMP), past station investigations, and the radiological environmental monitoring program (REMP).
3.3.1 PRE-OPERATIONAL RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM A pre-operational REMP was conducted to establish background radioactivity levels prior to operation of the Station. The environmental media sampled and analyzed during the pre-operational REMP were surface water, well water, air particulates, milk, locally grown vegetables, and aquatic plants and animals (ComEd, 1971). The results of the monitoring were detailed in the report entitled, 1971 Zion Station Final Safety Analysis Report, December 1971.
The pre-operational REMP report noted that surface water was sampled at five public water intakes. Generally, the gross beta radioactivity of Lake Michigan was less than 10 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L) with typical concentrations between 3 pCi/L to 6 pCi/L.
Gross alpha radioactivity was typically less than 3 pCi/L (ComEd, 1971).
Tritium levels in Lake Michigan water were studied in the vicinity of Zion Station throughout 1970. The concentration of tritium in the surface water samples from the Lake at Zion ranged from approximately 311 +/- 20 pCi/L to 374 +/- 34 pCi/L and averaged 340 pCi/L. There was no statistical difference in average tritium concentrations among the stations (eight stations from Kenosha to Waukegan) (ComEd, 1971).
045136 (22) Zion Station 12 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 1973 Aerial Radiological Measuring System An Aerial Radiological Measuring System (ARMS) survey was conducted at the Station prior to the startup of the reactors in 1973. The ARMS survey was conducted using small aircraft flying at an altitude between 300 and 500 feet. Ground-based measurements were obtained from two locations as part of the study. Tritium measurements were not included in the ARMS survey (ComEd, 1999).
The ARMS survey showed that cosmic ray exposure rate was substantially less than the northern Illinois background radiation level (ComEd, 1999).
Soil samples contained small concentrations of uranium-238 and thorium-232.
Cesium-137 activity in soil samples ranged from 0.276 to 0.40 picoCuries per gram (pCi/g) (ComEd, 1999).
3.3.2 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM The REMP at the Station was initiated in 1973. The REMP includes the collection of multi-media samples including air, surface water, groundwater, fish, sediment, and vegetation. The samples are analyzed for beta and gamma-emitting radionuclides, tritium, iodine-131, and/or strontium as established in the procedures developed for the REMP. The samples are collected at established locations, identified as stations, so that trends in the data can be monitored.
An annual report is prepared providing a description of the activities performed and the results of the analysis of the samples collected from the various media. The latest report generated was prepared by Station personnel and is entitled Final Monthly Progress Report to Exelon Nuclear, Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program - 2005. This report concluded that the operation of the Station had no adverse radiological impact on the environment. The annual report is submitted to the NRC.
Prior to the cessation of power generation in 1998, surface water samples were collected at the following six locations along Lake Michigan:
- Kenosha, Wisconsin (intake located 10 miles north of the Station);
- Lake County Public Water District (intake located 1.1 miles north of the Station);
- Waukegan, Illinois (intake located 6 miles south of the Station);
- North Chicago, Illinois (intake located 10 miles south of the Station);
045136 (22) Zion Station 13 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1
- Great Lakes NTS (intake located 13 miles south of the Station); and
- Lake Forest, Illinois (intake located 16.5 miles south of the Station).
After 1998, surface water samples were collected at the following four locations along Lake Michigan:
- Kenosha, Wisconsin (intake located 10 miles north of the Station);
- Lake County Public Water District (intake located 1.1 miles north of the Station);
- Waukegan, Illinois (intake located 6 miles south of the Station); and
- Lake Forest, Illinois (intake located 16.5 miles south of the Station).
Lake Michigan surface water data are collected as part of the REMP. Tritium concentrations in surface water samples from Lake Michigan ranged from non-detect to 660 pCi/L.
3.3.3 DEFUELED SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT In October 2004, Exelon updated the Defueled Safety Analysis Report (DSAR). The DSAR discusses the overall adequacy of the Station for safety, storing, and handling of fuel and radioactive waste, and to monitor potential radiological effluent release paths.
It provides information on Station and local characteristics such as geography, demography, meteorology, geology, and hydrogeology.
The DSAR states that intermittent liquid effluents from the Station will not affect groundwater supplies in the adjacent area in excess of concentrations in 10 CFR 20 due to local drainage patterns, release rates, and specific features of the sources of water supplies.
The DSAR also states that the Station's radioactive liquid waste generated is collected, treated and either recycled or discharged. Discharged liquid wastes are monitored to assure compliance with 10 CFR 20. Radioactivity levels should not exceed permissible concentrations at the cooling water outlet in Lake Michigan. The two closest municipal water intakes are the LCPWD (approximately 1 mile north) and the Waukegan Waterworks (approximately 6 miles south). The February 2005 REMP report indicates that there have been no tritium concentrations detected in surface water samples at concentrations exceeding the lower limit of detection (LLD) of 200 pCi/L.

Revision 1 3.3.4 WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND FAMILY SERVICES MONITORING The Wisconsin Public Health Statutes 254.41 mandates the Department of Health and Family Services (DHFS) to conduct environmental radiation monitoring around the nuclear power facilities that impact Wisconsin. The Station is included in this monitoring due to its proximity to the Wisconsin border. In the 2004 Zion Environmental Radioactivity Survey, the Wisconsin DHFS concluded:
- air particulate analysis shows no evidence of influence by the Station on air quality;
- the average yearly exposure of ambient gamma radiation is at background levels and is comparable to other areas within Wisconsin;
- the surface water samples showed no unusual concentrations of gross beta, gross gamma, tritium, and strontium;
- the gamma isotopic analysis for surface water indicated radioisotopes below their respective minimum detectable concentration;
- the gamma isotopic analysis on vegetation detected only a small amount of the naturally occurring elements potassium-40 and beryllium-7;
- the gamma isotopic analysis for soil detected potassium-40 and cesium-137. These were also detected in previous years and are naturally occurring (potassium-40) or attributable to fallout from previous atmospheric nuclear tests (cesium-137); and
- doses of radiation as a result of gaseous and liquid effluent are less than the limits allowed for an average individual as stated in Federal Regulations.
3.4 IDENTIFIED AREAS FOR FURTHER EVALUATION CRA used the information presented in the above sections along with its understanding of the hydrogeology at the Station to identify AFEs, which were a primary consideration in the development of the scope of work in the Work Plan. The establishment of AFEs is a standard planning practice in hydrogeologic investigations to focus the investigation activities at areas where there is the greatest potential for impact to groundwater.
Specifically, AFEs were identified based on these six considerations:
- systems evaluations;
- risk evaluations;
- review of confirmed and/or potential releases; 045136 (22) Zion Station 15 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1
- review of documents;
- review of the hydrogeologic conditions; and
- Station inspection completed on March 22 and 23, 2006.
Prior to CRA completing its analysis and determination of AFEs, Station personnel completed an exhaustive review of all historic and current management of systems that may contain potentially radioactively contaminated liquids.
CRA reviewed the systems identified by the Station, which have the potential for the release of radioactively contaminated liquids to the environment, and groundwater flow at the Station. This evaluation allowed CRA to become familiar with Station operations and potential systems that may impact groundwater. CRA then evaluated information concerning historic releases as provided by the Station. This information, along with a review of the results from historic site investigations, was used to refine CRA's understanding of areas likely to have the highest possibility of impacting groundwater.
Where at risk systems or identified historical releases were located in close proximity or were located in areas which could not be evaluated separately, the systems and historical releases were combined into a single AFE. At times, during the Station investigation, separate AFEs were combined into one or were otherwise altered based on additional information and consideration. This HIR details the AFEs investigated.
Finally, CRA used its understanding of known hydrogeologic conditions (prior to this investigation) to identify AFEs. Groundwater flow was an important factor in deciding whether to combine systems or historical releases into a single AFE or create separate AFEs. For example, groundwater beneath several systems that contain radioactively contaminated liquids that flows toward a common discharge point were likely combined into a single AFE. The AFEs were created based on known groundwater flow conditions prior to the work completed during this investigation.
Based upon its review of information concerning confirmed or potential historical releases, historic investigations, and the systems at the Station that have the potential for release of radioactively contaminated liquids to the environment combined with its understanding of groundwater flow at the Station, CRA has identified four AFEs (see Figure 3.1).

Revision 1 4.0 FIELD METHODS The field investigations completed for this HIR were completed in May to July 2006.
CRA supervised the installation of monitoring wells and a staff gauge, and collected samples from the newly-installed monitoring wells and the surface water location. The field investigations were completed in accordance with the methodologies presented in the Work Plan (CRA, 2006).
The scope of work presented in the Work Plan included the installation and sampling of nine permanent monitoring wells and the collection of a surface water sample. Based on the concentrations of tritium detected in monitoring well MW-ZN-01S, additional investigative activities were recommended by CRA, and implemented in June and July 2006. The additional investigative tasks included a second round of sampling at MW-ZN-01S and the installation and sampling of two permanent and four temporary monitoring wells. The additional investigative activities provided plume delineation and additional hydraulic information cross-gradient and down-gradient of MW-ZN-01S.
The groundwater sampling events undertaken as part of the investigation are:
- May 24-26, 2006 sampling of MW-ZN-01S through MW-ZN-09S;
- June 28, 2006 sampling of MW-ZN-01S (second round);
- July 17, 2006 sampling of TW-ZN-100 through TW-ZN-103; and
- July 28, 2006 sampling of MW-ZN-10S and MW-ZN-11S.
4.1 STAFF GAUGE INSTALLATION Figure 4.1 presents the location of the staff gauge installed as part of this investigation.
CRA installed staff gauge SG-ZN-01, which is a notch in a bridge within the Intake Crib.
The Intake Crib is hydraulically connected to Lake Michigan via the intake tunnel that extends approximately 1/2 mile into Lake Michigan.
4.2 GROUNDWATER MONITORING WELL INSTALLATION Prior to completing any ground penetration activities, CRA completed subsurface utility clearance procedures to minimize the potential of injury to workers and/or damage to subsurface utility structures. The subsurface clearance procedures consisted of completing an electronic survey within a minimum of 10-foot radius of the proposed location utilizing electromagnetic and ground penetrating radar technology.
045136 (22) Zion Station 18 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 Additionally, a vacuum soft dig was used to verify utilities were not present at the proposed location to a depth to 10 feet bgs.
Fifteen new monitoring wells were installed for the fleetwide hydrogeologic investigation, including 11 permanent and 4 temporary monitoring wells. Monitoring well construction logs are provided in Appendix B. Figure 4.1 presents the location of the 15 new monitoring wells. These locations were selected based on a review of all data provided, the hydrogeology at the Station, and current understanding of identified AFEs, and modified based on conditions encountered during the investigation.
Table 4.1 summarizes the well installation details.
Specific installation protocols for the permanent monitoring wells are described below:
- the borehole was advanced to the target depth using 4.25-inch inside diameter hollow-stem augers (HSA);
- a nominal 2-inch diameter (No. 10 slot) PVC screen, 10 or 20 feet in length, attached to a sufficient length of 2-inch diameter schedule 40 PVC riser pipe to extend to the surface, was placed into the borehole through the augers;
- a filter sand pack consisting of silica sand was installed to a minimum height of 2 feet above the top of the screen as the augers were removed;
- a minimum 2-foot thick seal consisting of 3/8-inch diameter bentonite pellets or chips was placed on top of the sand pack and hydrated using potable water;
- the remaining borehole annulus was sealed to within 3 feet of the surface using pure bentonite chips (the soft-dig portion of the borehole was backfilled with a mixture of soil and bentonite); and
- the remaining portion of the annulus was filled with concrete and a 6-inch diameter protective above-grade casing. The well head was fitted with a water-tight lockable cap.
Specific installation protocols for the temporary monitoring wells are described below:
- the borehole was advanced to the target depth using a 2-inch direct push technology (DPT) drill rig;
- a nominal 1-inch diameter (No. 10 slot) PVC screen, 15 or 20 feet in length, attached to a sufficient length of 1-inch diameter schedule 40 PVC riser pipe to extend to the surface, was placed into the borehole through the DPT casing;
- a filter sand pack consisting of silica sand was installed to a minimum height of 2 feet above the top of the screen as the augers were removed; 045136 (22) Zion Station 19 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1
- a minimum 2-foot thick seal consisting of bentonite powder was placed on top of the sand pack; and
- the remaining borehole annulus was sealed at the surface using bentonite powder or chips.
The shallow soil borings completed in unconsolidated materials that were to be used for monitoring well installation were installed using either DPT or 4.25-inch inside diameter HSA drilling techniques. The borehole depths ranged from 19 to 45 feet bgs. During the subsurface utility clearance activities described above, the borehole was periodically examined and the soil types documented. A description was added to each monitoring well construction log. The overburden soils were classified using the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS).
4.3 GROUNDWATER MONITORING WELL DEVELOPMENT To establish good hydraulic communication with the aquifer and reduce the volume of sediment in the permanent monitoring wells, well development was conducted in accordance with the procedure outlined below:
- monitoring wells were surged using a pre-cleaned bailer for a period of at least 5 minutes;
- a minimum of one well volume of water was purged using a submersible pump;
- the monitoring well was surged for 5 minutes again;
- water was purged from the monitoring well using an electric submersible pump;
- groundwater was collected at regular intervals and the pH, temperature, and conductivity were measured using field instruments. These instruments were calibrated daily according to the manufacturer's specifications. Additionally, observations such as color, odor, and turbidity of the purged water were recorded; and
- development continued until the turbidity and silt content of the monitoring wells were significantly reduced and three consistent readings of pH, temperature, and conductivity were recorded, or a minimum of ten well volumes was purged.
A summary of the monitoring well development parameter measurements is presented in Table 4.2.
045136 (22) Zion Station 20 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 4.4 SURVEY The 15 monitoring wells and surface water gauge were surveyed to establish reference elevations relative to mean sea level. The top of each well casing was surveyed to the nearest 0.01 foot relative to the National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD), and the survey point was marked on the well casing. The survey included the ground elevation at each well to the nearest 0.10 foot relative to the NGVD, and the horizontal well location to the nearest 1.0 foot. A reference point was also marked on the concrete at the surface water elevation measuring location.
The Lake Michigan shoreline was surveyed at the Station using a handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) with an estimated accuracy of +/- 12 feet. The GPS survey was conducted on June 30, 2006.
4.5 GROUNDWATER AND SURFACE WATER ELEVATION MEASUREMENTS On May 23, 2006 and July 27, 2006, CRA collected water level measurements from the monitoring wells and the staff gauge at the Station in accordance with the Work Plan.
Based on the measured depth to water from the reference point and the surveyed elevation of the reference point, the groundwater or surface water elevation was calculated. A summary of groundwater and surface water elevations is provided in Table 4.3.
Prior to the water level measurements, the wells and staff gauges were identified and located. Once the wells were identified, CRA completed a thorough inspection of each well and noted any deficiencies. Water level measurements were collected using an electronic depth-to-water probe accurate to +/- 0.01 foot. The measurements were made from the designated location on the inner riser or steel casing of each monitoring well and reference point on the staff gauge. The water level measurements were obtained using the following procedures:
- the proper elevation of the meter was checked by inserting the tip into water and noting if the contact was registering correctly;
- the tip was dried, and then slowly lowered into the well or surface water body until contact with the water was indicated;
- the tip was slowly raised until the light and/or buzzer just began to activate. This indicated the static water level; 045136 (22) Zion Station 21 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1
- the reading at the reference point was noted to the nearest hundredth of a foot;
- the reading was then re-checked; and
- the water level was then recorded, and the water level meter decontaminated prior to use at the next location.
Surface water measurements for Lake Michigan were obtained from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) gauging stations at Milwaukee, Wisconsin (Station 9087057), and Calumet Harbor, Illinois (Station 9087044) for the date and time when the water levels in monitoring wells were measured (NOAA, 2006).
Station Time Period Median Lake Elevation 9087057 Milwaukee May 23, 2006 8:00-13:00 577.99 9087044 Calumet Harbor May 23, 2006 8:00-13:00 577.94 May 23, 2006 8:00-13:00 Average 577.97 9087057 Milwaukee July 27, 2006 9:15-11:10 577.91 9087044 Calumet Harbor July 27, 2006 9:15-11:10 577.96 July 27, 2006 9:15-11:10 Average 577.93 4.6 GROUNDWATER AND SURFACE WATER SAMPLE COLLECTION CRA conducted one round of groundwater sampling during the hydrogeologic investigation, with additional samples collected from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. A total of 15 monitoring wells were sampled between May 24, 2006 and July 28, 2006.
Eleven new permanent monitoring wells were installed. The sampling was scheduled to allow for 2 weeks to elapse between well development and groundwater sample collection. Four temporary monitoring wells were installed and sampled in July 2006.
At the monitoring well locations, CRA conducted the sampling using peristaltic pumps and dedicated polyethylene tubing to employ low flow purging techniques, as described in Puls and Barcelona (1996).
For permanent monitoring wells with 20-foot screen lengths (MW-ZN-01S through MW-ZN-08S, MW-ZN-10S and MW-ZN-11S), separate samples were collected from the lower portion and the upper portion of the screened interval. The lower sampling interval targets potential releases from deep structural features such as the basement of the Auxiliary Building. The upper sampling interval targets potential surface and near surface releases such as spills from the primary cooling water ASTs.
045136 (22) Zion Station 22 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 The groundwater in the monitoring wells was sampled by the following low-flow procedures:
- the wells were located and the well identification numbers were verified;
- a water level measurement was taken;
- the well was sounded by carefully lowering the water level tape to the bottom of the well (so as to minimize penetration and disturbance of the well bottom sediment),
and comparing the sounded depth to the installed depth to assess the presence of any excess sediment or drill cuttings;
- the pump or tubing was lowered slowly into the well and fixed into place such that the intake was located at the mid-point of the well screen, or a minimum of 2 feet above the well bottom/sediment level;
- the purging was conducted using a pumping rate between 100 to 500 milliliters per minute. Initial purging began using the lower end of this range. The groundwater level was monitored to ensure that a drawdown of less than 0.3 foot occurred. If this criterion was met, the pumping rate was increased dependent on the behavior of the well. During purging, the pumping rate and groundwater level were measured and recorded approximately every 10 minutes;
- the field parameters [pH, temperature, conductivity, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), dissolved oxygen (DO), and turbidity] were monitored during the purging to evaluate the stabilization of the purged groundwater. Stabilization was considered to be achieved when three consecutive readings for each parameter, taken at 5-minute intervals, were within the following limits:
pH +/- 0.1 pH units of the average value of the three readings, Temperature +/- 3 percent of the average value of the three readings, Conductivity +/- 0.005 milliSiemen per centimeter (mS/cm) of the average value of the three readings for conductivity <1 mS/cm and
+/- 0.01 mS/cm of the average value of the three readings for conductivity >1 mS/cm, ORP +/- 10 millivolts (mV) of the average value of the three readings, DO +/- 10 percent of the average value of the three readings, and Turbidity +/- 10 percent of the average value of the three readings, or a final value of less than 5 nephelometric turbidity units (NTUs);
- once purging was complete, the groundwater samples were collected directly from the pump/tubing directly into the sample containers; and 045136 (22) Zion Station 23 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1
- in the event that the groundwater recharge to the monitoring well was insufficient to conduct the low-flow procedure, the well was pumped dry and allowed to sufficiently recharge prior to sampling.
All groundwater samples were labeled with a unique sample number, the date and time, the parameters to be analyzed, the job number, and the sampler's initials. The samples were then screened by the Station for shipment to Teledyne Brown Engineering Inc.
(Teledyne Brown).
A sample key is presented in Table 4.4; field measurements for the hydrogeologic investigation are presented in Table 4.5.
CRA containerized the water purged from the monitoring wells during the sampling, as well as the water purged from all of the wells during the hydrogeologic investigation.
The water was placed into 55-gallon drums, which will be processed by the Station in accordance with its NPDES permit.
One surface water sample was collected on May 26, 2006 from Lake Michigan at station SW-ZN-1, adjacent to the Station. The surface water sampling location is presented on Figure 4.1.
The surface water sample was collected by directly filling the sample container from the composite sampler at the determined location until completely filled. A sample key is presented in Table 4.4.
4.7 DATA QUALITY OBJECTIVES CRA has validated the analytical data to establish the accuracy and completeness of the data reported. Teledyne Brown provided the analytical services. The Quality Assurance Program for the laboratory is described in Appendix C. Analytical data for groundwater and surface water samples collected in accordance with the Work Plan are presented in Appendix D. Data validation reports are presented in Appendix E. The data validation included the following information and evaluations:
- sample preservation;
- sample holding times;
- laboratory method blanks;
- laboratory control samples; 045136 (22) Zion Station 24 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1
- laboratory duplicates;
- verification of laboratory qualifiers; and
- field quality control (field blanks and duplicates).
Following the completion of field activities, CRA compiled and reviewed the geologic, hydrogeologic, and analytical data.
The data were reviewed using the following techniques:
- data tables and databox figures;
- hydrogeologic cross-sections; and
- hydraulic analyses.
4.8 SAMPLE IDENTIFICATION Systematic sample identification codes were used to uniquely identify all samples. The identification code format used in the field was: WG - Zion - MW-8L - 052406 -
MS - 001. A summary of sample identification numbers is presented in Table 4.4.

Subsequently, the Station shipped the samples under chain-of-custody protocol to Teledyne Brown for analyses.
045136 (22) Zion Station 25 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 4.10 QUALITY CONTROL SAMPLES Quality control samples were collected to evaluate the sampling and analysis process.
Field Duplicates Field duplicates were collected to verify the accuracy of the analytical laboratory by providing two samples collected at the same location and then comparing the analytical results for consistency. Field duplicate samples were collected at a frequency of one duplicate for every ten samples collected. A total of three duplicate samples were collected. The locations of duplicate samples were selected in the field during the performance of sample collection activities. The duplicate samples were collected simultaneously with the actual sample and were analyzed for the same parameters as the actual samples.
Split Samples Split samples from permanent monitoring wells and surface water were collected for the NRC for tritium simultaneously with the actual sample at every sample location. Split samples were delivered to the Station personnel and (if requested) made available to the NRC. Split samples from the temporary monitoring wells were collected directly by the NRC and the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA).
4.11 ANALYSES Groundwater and surface water samples were analyzed for tritium and gamma-emitting radionuclides as listed in NUREG-1301, and strontium-89/90 as listed 40 CFR 141.25.

Revision 1 5.0 RESULTS
SUMMARY
This section provides a summary of Station-specific geology and hydrogeology, along with a discussion of hydraulic gradients, groundwater elevations, and flow directions in the vicinity of the Station. This section also presents and evaluates the analytical results obtained from activities performed in accordance with the Work Plan.
5.1 STATION GEOLOGY Geologic cross-sections in both a south-north and east-west profile have been developed.
Figure 5.1 displays the cross-section locations across the Station and the cross-sections are provided on Figures 5.2 and 5.3. These cross-section locations were chosen because of their close proximity to the AFEs and structures potentially influencing groundwater flow patterns.
The Station is underlain by overburden deposits and a regionally extensive sequence of consolidated sedimentary deposits as discussed in Section 2.4.3. In descending order, the following overburden stratigraphic units have been identified and characterized during the various Station investigations:
- Upper Sand Unit: Dense to very dense granular soils which range in gradation from very fine sand to fine to coarse sand, and which contains some gravel and occasional cobbles and boulders. Depth ranges from the ground surface to an elevation of approximately 555 feet AMSL.
- Silt-Clay Unit: Hard silt, silty clay, clayey silt, and sandy silt, which contain some sand and gravel and occasional cobbles and boulders. Depth ranges from approximately 525 feet to 555 feet AMSL.
- Lower Sand Unit: Dense to very dense sands and silty sands which contain some gravel, occasional cobbles and boulders, and layers of hard silty clay, clayey silt, and sandy silt. Depth ranges from approximately 480 feet to 525 feet AMSL (ComEd, 1969).
The Upper Sand Unit includes the surficial deposits of the Zion beach-ridge plain and consists of sand and gravel of the Lake Michigan Formation. The Lake Michigan Formation describes Holocene shallow-water, near-shore beach sediments predominantly consisting of medium-grained sand with local lenses of sandy gravel, and containing beds of silt.
045136 (22) Zion Station 27 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 The Silt-Clay Unit is consistent with quiet water lacustrine deposits and may be associated with post-glacial Lake Michigan (Nipissing Phase).
The Lower Sand Unit is consistent with recurring sequences of beach and quiet water lacustrine deposits and may be associated with the extreme Lake level fluctuations. As Lake levels rose, beach deposits moved westward with the shoreline and were followed by quiet water silt and clay deposits (a transgressive sequence). As Lake levels fell, the beach moved eastward with the shoreline (a regressive sequence).
The overburden sediments are underlain by Silurian carbonate bedrock of the Niagaran Series, which was encountered at depths ranging from 102 to 116 feet bgs (ComEd, 1969). In northeastern Illinois the Niagaran Series includes the Racine, Sugar Run, and Joliet Formations (Willman et al., 1975). Below the Silurian carbonates lie Pre-Cambrian through Ordovician sedimentary rocks, including shales, carbonates, and sandstone. Crystalline basement rock is located at a depth of approximately 2,500 feet.
The sedimentary bedrock strata are generally horizontal with a gentle dip to the east (Visocky et al., 1985).
Some of the Station structures are constructed to depths of approximately 60 feet bgs.
Excavations were completed from grade, through the Upper Sand Unit and into the topmost portion of the Silt-Clay Unit. Excavated sands were stockpiled during the construction and used as backfill (Exelon, 2004), and are considered to be hydraulically similar to the Upper Sand Unit.
The fifteen new monitoring wells (MW-ZN-01S, MW-ZN-02S, MW-ZN-03S, MW-ZN-04S, MW-ZN-05S, MW-ZN-06S, MW-ZN-07S, MW-ZN-08S, MW-ZN-09S, MW-ZN-10S, MW-ZN-11S, TW-ZN-100, TW-ZN-101, TW-ZN-102, and TW-ZN-103) were installed within the Upper Sand Unit or fill, which consists of a primarily fine-grained sand that overlies the Silt-Clay Unit. The monitoring well logs wells are presented in Appendix B.
Cross-Section A-A' (Figure 5.2) is a north-south profile through the east side of the Station. It begins at monitoring well MW-ZN-08S and terminates at MW-ZN-05S. This cross-section transects AFE-Zion-2, AFE-Zion-3, and AFE-Zion-4. This cross-section also shows the relationship between the groundwater and the geology, excavated areas, and reactor containment and building foundations.
Cross-Section B-B' (Figure 5.3) is an west-east profile that runs from monitoring well MW-ZN-07 through the Station to Lake Michigan and intersects AFE-Zion-1 and 045136 (22) Zion Station 28 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 AFE-Zion-3. This cross-section shows the relationship between the groundwater and geology, and building foundations.
5.2 STATION HYDROGEOLOGY This section presents the Station hydrogeology, including groundwater flow direction, man-made influences on groundwater flow, vertical hydraulic gradients, and lateral groundwater flow and velocity.
5.2.1 GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTIONS The shallow groundwater flows to the east toward Lake Michigan. The building foundations restrict the groundwater flow, which causes the groundwater to flow around the Station. As mentioned previously, the shallow water table intercepts the stormwater drainage ditches in the west area of the Station property, but does appear to affect the flow of groundwater to the east and toward Lake Michigan. Groundwater flow directions for May 2006 are provided on Figure 5.4, flow directions for July 2006 are provided on Figure 5.5. Both figures present groundwater flow in the shallow groundwater system. The sheet pile wall limits the flow of groundwater towards Lake Michigan. Groundwater between the sheet pile wall and the Turbine Building flows to the north or south around the wall. Although groundwater flow circumscribes the sheet pile wall, a small component of leakage through the wall is expected.
The sheet pile wall is constructed of MZ-27 steel sheet piling. MZ-27 sheet piling is comprised of z-shaped sheet steel sections which are 18-inches wide with a 12-inch offset. The sections are 45 feet long, 3/8-inch thick, and weigh 27 pounds per square foot of wall.
5.2.2 MAN-MADE INFLUENCES ON GROUNDWATER FLOW The building foundations of the main complex extend through the Upper Sand Unit and into the top of the underlying silts and clays. Deep structures include the Reactor Containment Buildings, the Fuel Storage Building, the Auxiliary Building, the Turbine Building, and the crib area. The deep building foundations act as hydraulic barriers for shallow groundwater as is discussed below.
045136 (22) Zion Station 29 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 During the construction of the Station, a sheet pile wall was installed along the Lake Michigan shoreline to prevent lake water from entering the excavation. The sheet pile wall was modified over the course of the construction and currently extends to a depth of approximately 45 feet bgs. The top of the sheet pile wall is lined with boulders and forms a breakwall, which is shown on Figure 5.3.
Shallow groundwater will flow into the stormwater drainage ditches located on the west portion of the Station property. However, the groundwater in this area is upgradient of the PA and areas within the Station that potentially contain tritiated water. As such the groundwater discharge to these stormwater systems is not expected to be impacted by tritium.
5.2.3 VERTICAL HYDRAULIC GRADIENTS The Upper Sand Unit is a high permeability unit that is directly connected to Lake Michigan, which is a regional discharge feature, and which generally allows unrestricted lateral groundwater flow. Vertical groundwater flow is limited by the underlying Silt-Clay Unit, which has a low permeability and is approximately 30 feet thick. To the extent that vertical flow can occur, the vertical gradient is expected to be upward based on the artesian pressure observed in the Lower Sand Unit during the 1967 Foundation Investigation (Dames and Moore, 1967).
5.2.4 LATERAL GROUNDWATER FLOW AND VELOCITY Fifteen monitoring wells were installed at the Station as part of the 2006 hydrogeologic investigation. Shallow groundwater is present at a depth less than 12 feet bgs in the Upper Sand Unit. The shallow water-bearing zone is isolated from the underlying regional bedrock aquifers by the underlying Silt-Clay Unit. The Silt-Clay Unit is approximately 30 feet thick and extends approximately 15 feet below the deepest structural feature at the Station.
Shallow groundwater flows is generally towards Lake Michigan. A potentiometric surface contour map is provided on Figure 5.4 (May 2006) and Figure 5.5 (July 2006).
The hydraulic gradient ranges from 0.001 feet per foot near the switchyard (west of the Station) to 0.008 feet per foot near the eastern portion of the Station. The hydraulic conductivity of the surficial sands is expected to be approximately 12 feet per day based on the median measurement from a study conducted along the Illinois-Indiana border of the shallow aquifer along Lake Michigan (USGS, 1996). The velocity of the shallow 045136 (22) Zion Station 30 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 groundwater may be roughly approximated using the Station-specific hydraulic gradient with the literature value for hydraulic conductivity and a typical value for porosity. Using the hydraulic gradient range of 0.001 to 0.008 feet per foot with a hydraulic conductivity of 12 feet per day and an assumed porosity of 0.32 yields a velocity range of 14 to 110 feet per year (USEPA, 1996).
5.3 GROUNDWATER QUALITY CRA personnel collected groundwater samples from fifteen wells. The samples were analyzed for tritium and additional radionuclides. Teledyne Brown provided the analytical services. The Quality Assurance Program for the laboratory is described in Appendix C. The analytical data reports are provided in Appendix D.
The analytical data presented herein have been subjected to CRA's data validation process. CRA has used the data with appropriate qualifiers where necessary.
The data reported in the figures and tables do not include the results of recounts that the laboratory completed, except if those results ultimately replaced an initial report. The tables and figures, therefore, include only the first analysis reported by the laboratory.
Where multiple samples were collected over time, then the most recent result has been used in the discussion, below.
Two samples were collected from two different elevations in each permanent monitoring well except for monitoring well MW-ZN-09S. The samples were collected at 16 feet above the well bottom for the upper sample and 3 feet above the well bottom for the lower sample. At monitoring well MW-ZN-09S there was not a sufficient depth of water for both samples to be collected and a single sample at MW-ZN-09S was collected at 3 feet above the well bottom, which is the equivalent of an upper sample in the other monitoring wells.
5.3.1
SUMMARY
OF BETA-EMITTING RADIONUCLIDES ANALYTICAL RESULTS A summary of the tritium results for the groundwater samples collected during this investigation is provided in Table 5.1 and shown on Figure 5.6.
Groundwater samples were collected from the upper and lower portions of the screen in each monitoring well with a 20-foot screen (MW-ZN-01S through MW-ZN-11S with the 045136 (22) Zion Station 31 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 exception of MW-ZN-09S). Groundwater samples were also collected from Temporary Wells (TW-ZN-100 through TW-ZN-103). All tritium concentrations were below the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. Tritium was not detected greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in samples collected from 14 of the 15 monitoring wells.
Concentrations of tritium exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L were only detected in groundwater samples collected from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. The concentrations of tritium detected in the initial round of sampling were 586 +/- 141 pCi/L in the lower portion of the screen and 261 +/- 124 pCi/L in the upper portion of the screen.
MW-ZN-01S was re-sampled on June 28, 2006 and the concentrations of tritium were less than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in the lower portion of the screen and 220 pCi/L in the upper portion of the screen.
Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations exceeding the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L. A summary of the strontium-89/90 results for the groundwater samples collected as part of the investigation that is the subject of this HIR is provided in Table 5.2 and shown on Figure 5.7.

SUMMARY
OF GAMMA-EMITTING RADIONUCLIDES ANALYTICAL RESULTS Gamma-emitting target radionuclides were not detected at concentration greater than their respective LLD. A summary of the gamma-emitting radionuclides results for the groundwater samples collected as part of the investigation that is the subject of this HIR is provided in Table 5.2 and presented graphically on Figure 5.7.
Other non-targeted radionuclides are included in the tables but excluded from discussion in this report. These radionuclides were either a) naturally occurring and thus not produced by the Station, or b) could be definitively evaluated as being naturally occurring due to the lack of presence of other radionuclides, which would otherwise indicate the potential of production from the Station.
5.3.3
SUMMARY
OF FIELD MEASUREMENTS Table 4.5 presents a summary of monitoring well purging parameters collected during the well purging and sampling activities. These field measurements included pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, turbidity, and temperature. The field parameters were typical of a shallow sand aquifer. The pH values ranged from 5.51 standard units to 045136 (22) Zion Station 32 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 10.42 standard units. The conductivity was indicative of a shallow water table system subject to surface water recharge.
Of note were the elevated turbidity readings above 900 NTU collected from the lower portion of the screen at MW-ZN-04S; however, the elevated turbidity readings are indicative of the very loose and fine-grained organic material at this well's lower screen interval, as shown on the MW-ZN-04S stratigraphic log. Overall, the readings were within the expected ranges for naturally occurring groundwater.
5.4 SURFACE WATER QUALITY One surface water sample was collected from Lake Michigan at the location shown on Figure 4.1. This sample was analyzed for tritium, gamma-emitting radionuclides, and strontium-89/90. Teledyne Brown provided the analytical services. The Quality Assurance Program for the laboratory is described in Appendix C. The analytical data reports are provided in Appendix D.

Revision 1 6.0 RADIONUCLIDES OF CONCERN AND SOURCE AREAS This section discusses radionuclides evaluated in this investigation, potential sources of the radionuclides detected, and their distribution.
6.1 GAMMA-EMITTING RADIONUCLIDES Gamma-emitting target radionuclides were not detected at concentration exceeding their respective LLD. Other non-targeted radionuclides were also included in the tables but excluded from discussion in this report. These radionuclides were either a) naturally occurring and thus not produced by the Station, or b) could be definitively evaluated as being naturally occurring due to the lack of presence of other radionuclides which would otherwise indicate the potential of production from the Station.
6.2 BETA-EMITTING RADIONUCLIDES Strontium-89/90 was not detected in any of the samples collected at concentrations that were greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L. Tritium was detected in one of the sixteen total sample locations. Concentrations of tritium ranged between less than the LLD of 200 pCi/L to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L.
Since only tritium was detected above the radionuclides' LLDs, the following sections focus on tritium; specifically, providing general characteristics of tritium, potential sources, distribution in groundwater, and a conceptual model for migration.
6.3 TRITIUM This section discusses the general characteristics of tritium, the distribution of tritium in groundwater and surface water, and the conceptual model of tritium release and migration.
6.3.1 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS Tritium (chemical symbol H-3) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. The most common forms of tritium are tritium gas and tritium oxide, which is also called "tritiated water."
The chemical properties of tritium are essentially those of ordinary hydrogen. Tritiated 045136 (22) Zion Station 35 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 water behaves the same as ordinary water in both the environment and the body.
Tritium can be taken into the body by drinking water, breathing air, eating food, or absorption through skin. Once tritium enters the body, it disperses quickly and is uniformly distributed throughout the body. Tritium is excreted primarily through urine within a month or so after ingestion. Organically bound tritium (tritium that is incorporated in organic compounds) can remain in the body for a longer period.
Tritium is produced naturally in the upper atmosphere when cosmic rays strike air molecules. Tritium is also produced during nuclear weapons explosions, as a by-product in reactors producing electricity, and in special production reactors, where the isotopes lithium-7 and/or boron-10 are bombarded to produce tritium.
Although tritium can be a gas, its most common form is in water because, like non-radioactive hydrogen, radioactive tritium reacts with oxygen to form water.
Tritium replaces one of the stable hydrogen atoms in the water molecule and is called tritiated water. Like normal water, tritiated water is colorless and odorless. Tritiated water behaves chemically and physically like non-tritiated water in the subsurface, and therefore tritiated water will travel at the same velocity as the average groundwater velocity.
Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12.3 years. It decays spontaneously to helium-3 (3He). This radioactive decay releases a beta particle (low-energy electron). The radioactivity of tritium is the source of the risk of exposure.
Tritium is one of the least dangerous radionuclides because it emits very weak radiation and leaves the body relatively quickly. Since tritium is almost always found as water, it goes directly into soft tissues and organs. The associated dose to these tissues is generally uniform and is dependent on the water content of the specific tissue.
6.3.2 DISTRIBUTION IN STATION GROUNDWATER This section provides an overview of the lateral and vertical distribution of tritium detected in groundwater at the Station. Tritium was detected in groundwater at concentrations exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L.
Tritium concentrations in groundwater are presented on Figure 5.6. Tritium was only detected in groundwater samples from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S in May 2006 from both the upper sampling interval (261 +/- 124 pCi/L, 22 feet bgs) and the lower sampling interval (586 +/- 141 pCi/L, 35 feet bgs). Tritium was only detected in groundwater 045136 (22) Zion Station 36 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 samples from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S in June 2006 in the upper sampling interval (220 +/- 123 pCi/L, 22 feet bgs). Tritium was not detected above the LLD of 200 pCi/L in June 2006 at the MW-ZN-01S lower sampling interval.
6.3.3 CONCEPTUAL MODEL OF TRITIUM RELEASE AND MIGRATION This Section presents CRA's conceptual model of groundwater and tritium migration at the Station.
A conceptual model of groundwater and tritium migration is provided herein. This model is then used to discuss the recent detections of tritium observed during the hydrogeologic investigations presented in this HIR.
Groundwater flows within the Upper Sand Unit at the Station in response to the regional discharge point located to the east of the Station (Lake Michigan).
Groundwater moving within the Upper Sand Unit is separated from the regional bedrock aquifer zones by the underlying low-permeability Silt-Clay Unit.
Groundwater in the Upper Sand Unit generally flows to the east and discharges to Lake Michigan. Groundwater flowing in Upper Sand Unit is affected by the building foundations which, in some cases, extend into the underlying glacial silts and clays. The sheet pile wall also limits the flow of groundwater towards Lake Michigan. There is no indication from the HIR investigation that tritium-impacted groundwater is migrating off the Station property.
6.3.4 ATTENUATION OF TRITIUM WITHIN THE SHALLOW GROUNDWATER SYSTEM Tritium in the groundwater system would be affected by the infiltration from precipitation recharge. This could result in the upper water table zone of the sand aquifer having lower concentrations of tritium than deeper portions (these upper and lower zones are only separated by 10 feet).
The permeable nature of the Upper Sand Unit also supports attenuation of the tritium through lateral groundwater movement. The dispersion of the tritium as it flows through the Upper Sand Unit along with its natural decay rate will allow for reduction in concentrations over time and with distance from a release into the groundwater.
045136 (22) Zion Station 37 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 Tritium was not detected at concentrations exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L in the four temporary wells located downgradient of MW-ZN-01S and in surface water sample collected from Lake Michigan, which is the ultimate receptor of groundwater discharge from the Station. There is no indication from the HIR investigation that tritium-impacted groundwater is migrating off the Station property.
045136 (22) Zion Station 38 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 7.0 EXPOSURE PATHWAY ASSESSMENT This section addresses the groundwater impacts from tritium and other radionuclides at the Station and potential risks to human health and the environment.
Based upon historical knowledge and data related to the Station operations, and based upon radionuclide analyses of groundwater samples, the primary constituent of concern (COC) is tritium. The discussions that follow are restricted to the exposure pathways related to tritium.
Teledyne Brown reports all samples to their statistically derived minimum detectable concentration (MDC) of approximately 150 to 170 pCi/L, which is associated with 95 percent confidence interval on their hardcopy reports. However, the laboratory uses a 99 percent confidence range (+/- 3-sigma) for determining whether to report the sample activity concentration as detected or not. This 3-sigma confidence range typically equates to 150 (+/- 135.75) pCi/L.
Exelon has specified a LLD of 200 pCi/L for the Fleetwide assessment. Exelon has also required the laboratory to report related peaks identified at the 95 percent confidence level (2-sigma).
This HIR, therefore, screens and assesses data using Exelon's LLD of 200 pCi/L. As is outlined below, this concentration is also a reasonable approximation of the background concentration of tritium in groundwater at the Station.
7.1 HEALTH EFFECTS OF TRITIUM Tritium is a radionuclide that decays by emitting a low-energy beta particle that cannot penetrate deeply into tissue or travel far in air. A person's exposure to tritium is primarily through the ingestion of water (drinking water) or through ingestion of water-bearing food products. Inhalation of tritium requires the water to be in a vapor form (i.e., through evaporation or vaporization due to heating). Inhalation is a minor exposure route when compared to direct ingestion or drinking of tritiated water.
Absorption of tritium through skin is possible, but tritium exposure is more limited here versus direct ingestion or drinking of tritiated water.

Revision 1
7.2 BACKGROUND
CONCENTRATIONS OF TRITIUM The purpose of the following paragraphs is to establish a background concentration through review of various media.
7.2.1 GROUNDWATER Tritium is created in the environment from naturally occurring processes both cosmic and subterranean, as well as from anthropogenic (i.e., man-made) sources. In the upper atmosphere, "cosmogenic" tritium is produced from the bombardment of stable nuclides and combines with oxygen to form tritiated water, which will then enter the hydrologic cycle. Below ground, "lithogenic" tritium is produced by the bombardment of natural lithium isotopes 6Li (92.5% abundance) and 7Li (7.5% abundance) present in crystalline rocks by neutrons produced by the radioactive decay of uranium and thorium.
Lithogenic production of tritium is usually negligible compared to other sources due to the limited abundance of lithium in rock. The lithogenic tritium is introduced directly to groundwater.
A major anthropogenic source of tritium comes from the former atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Levels of tritium in precipitation increased during the 1950s and early 1960s, coinciding with the release of significant amounts of tritium to the atmosphere during nuclear weapons testing prior to the signing of the Limited Test Ban Treaty in 1963, which prohibited atmospheric nuclear tests.
7.2.2 PRECIPITATION DATA Precipitation samples are routinely collected at stations around the world for the analysis of tritium and other radionuclides. Two publicly available databases that provided tritium concentrations in precipitation are Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP) and USEPA's RadNet database. GNIP provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected world wide from 1960 to 2006.
RadNet provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected at Stations through the U.S. from 1960 up to and including 2006.
Based on GNIP data for sample stations located in the U.S. Midwest including Chicago, St. Louis and Madison, Wisconsin, as well as Ottawa, Ontario, and data from the University of Chicago, tritium concentrations peaked around 1963. This peak, which approached 10,000 pCi/L for some stations, coincided with the atmospheric testing of 045136 (22) Zion Station 40 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 thermonuclear weapons. Tritium concentrations showed a sharp decline up until 1975 followed by a gradual decline since that time. Tritium concentrations in Midwest precipitation have typically been below 100 pCi/L since around 1980.
The RadNet database for several stations in the U.S. Midwest (Chicago, Columbus, Indianapolis, Lansing, Madison, Minneapolis, Painesville, Toledo, and Welsch) did not show the same trend, which can be attributed to pre-1995 data handling procedures.
The pre-1995 data were rounded to the nearest 100 pCi/L, which dampened out variances in the data. The post-1995 RadNet data, where rounding was not applied, exhibit much more scatter, and similar to the GNIP data, the vast majority of the data were less than 100 pCi/L.
CRA constructed a non-parametric upper tolerance limit with a confidence of 95 percent and coverage of 95 percent based on RadNet data for USEPA Region 5 from 2004 to 2005. The resulting upper tolerance limit is 133 pCi/L, which indicates that CRA is 95 percent confident that 95 percent of the ambient precipitation concentration results are below 133 pCi/L. The statistical confidence, however, must be compared with the limitations of the underlying RadNet data, which does not include the minimum detectable concentration for a majority of the measurements. Some of the RadNet values below 200 pCi/L may be approximated. Nevertheless, these results show a background contribution for precipitation of up to 133 pCi/L.
7.2.3 SURFACE WATER DATA Tritium concentrations are routinely measured in large surface water bodies, including Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River. Surface water data from the RadNet database for Illinois sampling stations include East Moline (Mississippi River), Moline (Mississippi River), Marseilles (Illinois River), Morris (Illinois River), Oregon (Rock River), and Zion (Lake Michigan). As is the case for the RadNet precipitation data, the pre-September 1995 Illinois surface water data was rounded to the nearest 100 pCi/L, creating a dampening of variances in the data. The post-1995 Illinois surface water data, similar to the post-1995 Midwest precipitation data, were less than 100 pCi/L, with the exception of the Moline (Mississippi River) station. Tritium surface water concentrations at this location varied between 100 and 800 pCi/L, which may reflect local natural or anthropogenic inputs.
The RadNet surface water data typically has a reported 'Combined Standard Uncertainty' of 35 to 50 pCi/L. According to USEPA, this corresponds to a
+/- 70 to 100 pCi/L 95 percent confidence bound on each given measurement. Therefore, 045136 (22) Zion Station 41 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 the typical background data provided may be subject to measurement uncertainty of approximately +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L.
7.2.4 DRINKING WATER DATA Tritium concentrations in drinking water from the RadNet database for three Illinois sampling stations (Chicago, Morris, and East Chicago) exhibit similar trends as the precipitation and surface water data. As with the precipitation and surface water data, the pre-1995 data have dampened out variances due to rounding the data to the nearest 100 pCi/L. The post-1995 results show tritium concentrations in samples of drinking water were less than 100 pCi/L.
7.2.5 EXPECTED TRITIUM BACKGROUND FOR THE STATION As reported in the GNIP and RadNet databases, tritium concentrations in U.S. Midwest precipitation have typically been less than 100 pCi/L since 1980. Tritium concentrations reported in the RadNet database for Illinois surface water and groundwater, at least since 1995, have typically been less than 100 pCi/L. Based on USEPA Region 5's 2004 to 2005 RadNet precipitation data, 95 percent of the ambient concentrations of tritiated water in Illinois are expected to be less than 133 pCi/L, based on a 95 percent confidence limit. Tritium concentrations in surface water and drinking water at the Station are expected to be comparable or less based on historical data and trends.
Concentrations in groundwater similar to surface water and drinking water are expected to be less than precipitation values. The lower groundwater concentrations are related to the age of the groundwater as compared to the half-life of tritium. Deep aquifers in proximity to crystalline basement rock, however, can potentially show elevated concentrations of tritium due to lithogenic sources.
The Pre-Operational REMP report noted that lake water was sampled at five public water intakes. Generally, the gross beta radioactivity of Lake Michigan was less than 10 pCi/L. Typical values from throughout the Lake were between 3 to 6 pCi/L. Gross alpha radioactivity was typically less than 3 pCi/L (ComEd, 1971).
Tritium levels in Lake Michigan water were studied in the vicinity of Zion throughout 1970 (prior to the construction of the Station). The concentration of tritium in Lake Michigan near Zion ranged from approximately 311 +/- 20 pCi/L to 374 +/- 34 pCi/L and averaged 340 pCi/L. There was no statistical difference in average tritium levels among 045136 (22) Zion Station 42 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 the sample locations (eight sample locations from Kenosha to Waukegan)
(ComEd, 1971).
As was noted in Section 7.0, the reporting limits for the tritium results are to an LLD of 200 pCi/L. This concentration also represents a reasonable representation of background groundwater quality, given the data for precipitation, surface water, and drinking water.
Based on the evaluation presented above, the background concentration for tritium at the Station is reasonably represented by the LLD of 200 pCi/L.
7.3 IDENTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL EXPOSURE PATHWAYS AND POTENTIAL RECEPTORS There are two potential exposure pathways for tritium originating in or adjacent to the Station:
- potential groundwater migration off the Station property to private and public groundwater users; and
- potential groundwater migration off the Station property to Lake Michigan.
The following section provides an overview of each of these two potential exposure pathways for tritium in groundwater.
7.3.1 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO DRINKING WATER USERS OFF THE STATION PROPERTY Based upon the groundwater and surface water data presented in this HIR, groundwater flow is to the east towards Lake Michigan. The horizontal extent of the elevated concentrations of tritium in the direction of groundwater flow has been established, and is limited to the area around MW-ZN-01S. Tritium was not detected in the four temporary well installed near the shoreline above the LLD of 200 pCi/L. The tritium concentrations in groundwater samples collected from MW-ZN-01S ranged from less than LLD (most recently) to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L (lower interval), 220 +/- 123 pCi/L to 261 +/- 124 pCi/L (upper interval), which are significantly less than the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. No tritium was detected above the LLD (200 pCi/L) in the other fourteen monitoring wells across the Station. In addition, there are no potable water supply wells downgradient of the Station or of monitoring well MW-ZN-01S.
045136 (22) Zion Station 43 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 The direction of groundwater flow is east towards Lake Michigan. Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD (200 pCi/L) in the four temporary wells located downgradient of MW-ZN-01S. There is no potentially complete exposure pathway, and therefore there is no current risk of exposure associated with groundwater ingestion off the Station property.
7.3.2 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO SURFACE WATER USERS Based upon the groundwater and surface water data presented in this HIR, groundwater flow is to the east towards Lake Michigan. The horizontal extent of the elevated concentrations of tritium is limited to the area around MW-ZN-01S. The tritium concentrations detected in groundwater samples collected from MW-ZN-01S ranged from less than LLD (200 pCi/L) (most recently) to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L (lower interval) and 220 +/- 123 pCi/L to 261 +/- 124 pCi/L (upper interval), which are significantly less than the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. No tritium was detected above the LLD (200 pCi/L) in the other 14 monitoring wells across the Station. In addition, no tritium was detected above the LLD (200 pCi/L) in the downgradient monitoring wells (MW-ZN-11S and TW-ZN-100 through TW-ZN-103) and the surface water sample collected from Lake Michigan at station SW-ZN-01, adjacent to the Station.
The Lake County Public Works Department obtains its water for the City of Zion from Lake Michigan by means of an intake pipe located approximately 1 mile to the north of the Station and extending 3,000 feet into the Lake. Since tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than LLD (200 pCi/L) in the four temporary wells and MW-ZN-11S (which are downgradient of MW-ZN-01S) or the Lake Michigan surface water sample, there is an incomplete exposure pathway. Therefore, there is no current risk of exposure associated with ingestion and recreational use off the Station property.
7.4
SUMMARY
OF POTENTIAL TRITIUM EXPOSURE PATHWAYS There are two potential groundwater exposure pathways for tritium originating at the Station:
- groundwater migration off the Station Property to private and public groundwater users (drinking water exposure); and
- groundwater migration off the Station Property to Lake Michigan (drinking water exposure and recreational exposure).
045136 (22) Zion Station 44 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 Based upon the groundwater and surface water data provided and referenced in this investigation, none of the potential receptors are at risk of exposure to concentrations of tritium in excess of USEPA drinking water standard (20,000 pCi/L).
7.5 OTHER RADIONUCLIDES Target radionuclides were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in the groundwater and surface water samples collected. Other non-targeted radionuclides were also included in the tables but excluded from discussion in this report. These radionuclides were either a) naturally occurring and thus not produced by the Station, or b) could be definitively evaluated as being naturally occurring due to the lack of presence of other radionuclides which would otherwise indicate the potential of production from the Station.

Revision 1
8.0 CONCLUSION
S Based on all of the studies completed to date at the Zion Station, CRA concludes:
Groundwater Flow
- The water table is in the Upper Sand Unit. The depth to water ranged from 5 to 14 feet bgs.
- The shallow groundwater at the Station generally flows to the east towards Lake Michigan.
- Groundwater flow at the Station is affected by the construction (basements/foundations) of the Reactor, Turbine, and Auxiliary Buildings, which were constructed into the Silt-Clay Unit. These buildings are barriers to lateral flow.
- A sheet pile wall was initially installed to limit the infiltration of Lake Michigan water into the construction excavation for the main Station buildings. The wall currently influences groundwater flow on the east side of the Station by diverting the groundwater around the wall.
Groundwater Quality
- None of the detected tritium concentrations in the groundwater exceeded the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L.
- Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD (200 pCi/L) in 14 of the 15 monitoring wells collected as part of this investigation.
- Tritium was detected in groundwater samples collected from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. These concentrations ranged from less than LLD (most recently) to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L (lower interval) and 220 +/- 123 pCi/L to 261 +/- 124 pCi/L (upper interval).
- Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the sample collected as part of this investigation.
- Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L in any sample collected as part of this investigation.
- Tritium is not migrating off the Station property.
045136 (22) Zion Station 46 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1 Surface Water Quality
- Tritium was not detected in the surface water sample at a concentration greater than the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L.
- Tritium was not detected in the surface water sample at a concentration greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L.
- Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their LLDs in the sample collected as part of this investigation.
- Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L in the sample collected as part of this investigation.
AFE-Zion-1: Main Complex Area, AFE-Zion-3: Unit 2 (Northern) AST Area, and AFE-Zion-4: Wastewater Treatment Plant Area
- Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFEs Zion-1, 3, and 4.
- Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFEs-Zion-1, 3, and 4.
- Tritium was detected in groundwater samples collected from monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. These concentrations ranged from less than LLD (most recently) to 586 +/- 141 pCi/L (lower interval) and 220 +/- 123 pCi/L to 261 +/- 124 pCi/L (upper interval). The tritium is localized to the area in the vicinity of monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. No tritium was detected in the four temporary wells and MW-ZN-11S, located downgradient of monitoring well MW-ZN-01S. This well is located in close proximity to AFEs Zion 1, 3, and 4. The source of tritium in this location is likely attributable to historical releases in this area. However, the most recent sample results are within the range of background concentrations.
AFE-Zion-2: Unit 1 (Southern) Aboveground Storage Tank (AST) Area
- Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Zion-2.
045136 (22) Zion Station 47 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Revision 1
- Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Zion-2.
- Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from the monitoring wells near AFE-Zion-2.
- There have been no impacts to groundwater from AFE-Zion-2.
Potential Receptors Based on the results of this investigation4, there is no current risk from exposure to radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations through any of the identified potential exposure pathways.
General Conclusions
- Based on the results of this investigation, tritium is not migrating off the Station property at detectable concentrations; and
- Based on the results of this investigation, there are no known active releases into the groundwater at the Station.

Revision 1 9.0 RECOMMENDATIONS The following presents CRA's recommendations for proposed activities to be completed at the Station.
9.1 DATA GAPS Based on the results of this hydrogeologic investigation, there are no data gaps remaining to support CRAs conclusions regarding the characterization of the groundwater regime and potential impacts from radionuclides at the Station.
9.2 GROUNDWATER MONITORING Based upon the information collected to date, CRA recommends that Exelon conduct periodic monitoring of selected sample locations.
Temporary Well Abandonment Four temporary wells were installed on the beach between the sheet pile wall and the normal high water mark. These temporary wells are not expected to survive the winter due to storms and ice buildup and should be properly abandoned before the onset of cold weather.

SUMMARY
Water Well Report 'Research Mapping Protocol The Banks Information Solutions, Inc. Water Well Report ' is prepared from existing state water well databases and additional file data/records research conducted at Texas' regulatory authorities. Submission of driller's log records upon completion of a drilled water well became mandatory in 1985. The state of Texas has processed these records into several different filing systems within two state regulatory authorities. The water well files, records and map locations are maintained by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB). Actual water well site locations of this report are geocoded and geoplotted directly from the drilling records, drilling schedules, and driller's logs and maps submitted by the water well driller and maintained at these two primary water well regulatory authorities. Below is a description of the four filing systems utilized for well drilling records.
Texas Water Development Board (TWDB)
Texas Water Development Board maintains a file system of located water well locations. These well files are water well site locations that have been verified with a field inventory inspection by TWDB personnel. The wells are assigned a State Identification Number unique to that well and plotted on county base maps, U.S.G.S. 7.5 minute topographical quadrangle maps, and in-house geographic information system. Records will also include analytical data attached with each drilling record. This is the current protocol for maintaining water well records within the TWDB.
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ)
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality maintains a file system of plotted, partially numbered, and un-numbered water well locations. Plotted water well files are water well site locations that have been determined from map information submitted on water well logs and subsequently plotted on TWDB county highway base maps. This type of mapping and filing procedure ceased in June 1986. Partially numbered water well files are water well site locations processed from 1986 through 1990. These wells are provided a State Identification Number which establishes the well location somewhere within a 2.5 minute quadrant of a 7.5 minute quadrangle map, but the site location has never been precisely mapped or verified by a State of Texas staff member. Un-numbered water well files are water well site locations that have been processed since June 1990. These well records are filed solely on their county location and are not provided a State Identifiation Number nor are they mapped. This is the current protocol for maintaining water well records within the TCEQ.
Disclaimer Banks Information Solutions, Inc. has performed a thorough and diligent search of all wells recorded with the Texas Water Development Board and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. All mapped locations are based on information obtained from the TWDB and the TCEQ. Although Banks performs quality assurance and quality control on all research projects, we recognize that any inaccuracies of the records and mapped well locations could possibly be traced to the appropriate regulatory authority or the water well driller. Many water well schedules may have never been submitted to the regulatory authority by the water well driller and, thus, may explain the possible unaccountability of private drilled wells. It is uncertain if the above listing provides 100% of the existing well locations within the area of review. Therefore, Banks Information Solutions, Inc. cannot gaurantee the accuracy of the data or well location(s) of those maps and records maintained by Texas' regulatory authorities.

1.0 Knoxville QAM Section Introduction This Quality Assurance Manual (QAM) and related Procedures describes the Knoxville Environmental Services Laboratorys QA system. This system is designed to meet multiple quality standards imposed by Customers and regulatory agencies including:
NRCs 10 CFR 50 Appendix B NRCs Regulatory Guide 4.15 DOEs Order 414.1 DOEs QSAS ANSI N 42.23 ANSI N 13.30 NELAC Standard, Chapter 5 The Environmental Services (ES) Laboratory does low level radioactivity analyses for Power Plants and other customers. It primarily analyzes environmental samples (natural products from around plants such as milk), in-plant samples (air filters, waters), bioassay samples from customers employees, and waste disposal samples (liquids and solids).
Potable and non-potable water samples are tested using methods based on EPA standards as cited in State licenses (see Procedure 4010). The listing [current as of initial printing of this Manual - see current index for revision status and additions / deletions] of implementing Procedures (SOPs) covering Administration, Methods, Counting Instruments, Technical, Miscellaneous, and LIMS is shown in Table 1-1. Reference to these Procedures by number is made throughout this QAM.

This quality system applies to all activities of TBE-ES that affect the quality of analyses performed by the laboratory.
2.1 Policy The TBE quality policy, given in Company Policy P-501, is TBE will continually improve our processes and effectiveness in providing products and services that exceed our customers expectations.
This policy is amplified by this Laboratorys commitment, as attested to by the title page signatures, to perform all work to good professional practices and to deliver high quality services to our customers with full data integrity. (See Section 4.0 and Procedure 1005).
2.2 Quality System Structure The Quality System is operated by the organizations described in Section 3.0 of this Manual. The Quality System is described in this Manual and in the Procedures Manual, both of which are maintained by the QA Manager. Procedures are divided into 6 sections - Administrative, Methods, Equipments, Technical, Miscellaneous, and LIMS. This Manual is structured as shown in the Table of Contents and refers to Procedures when applicable. Cross references to the various imposed quality specifications are contained in Appendices to this Manual.
2.3 Quality System Objectives The Quality System is established to meet the objective of assuring all operations are planned and executed in accordance with system requirements. The Quality System also assures that performance evaluations are performed (see Procedure 4006), and that appropriate verifications are performed (see Procedures in the 1000 and 4000 series) to further assure compliance. Verification includes Page 10 of 32
examination of final reports (prior to submittal to customers) to determine their quality (see Procedure 4004).
To further these objectives, various in-process assessments of data, as well as assessments of the system, via internal audits and management reviews, are performed. Both internal experts and customer / regulatory agencies perform further assessments of the system and compliance to requirements.
2.4 Personnel Orientation, Training, and Qualification TBE provides indoctrination and training to employees and performs proficiency evaluation of technical personnel. This effort is described in Section 4.0.
Page 11 of 32
3.0 ORGANIZATION, AUTHORITY, AND RESPONSIBILITY TBE has established an effective organization for conducting laboratory analyses at the Knoxville Environmental Services Laboratory. The basic organization is shown in Figure 3-1. Detail organization charts with names, authorities, and responsibilities are given in Procedure 1002. Job descriptions are given in Procedure 1006.
This organization provides clearly established Quality Assurance authorities, duties, and functions. QA has the organizational freedom needed to:
(1) Identify problems (2) Stop nonconforming work (3) Initiate investigations (4) Recommend corrective and preventive actions (5) Provide solutions or recommend solutions (6) Verify implementation of actions All Laboratory personnel have the authority and resources to do their assigned duties and have the freedom to act on problems. The QA personnel have direct, independent access to Company management as shown in Figure 3-1.
President VP VP Administration & QA Environmental Product Assurance Director Lab QA Manager Lab Operations Manager Program Lab Administration Managers Supervisor Staff Figure 3.1. Laboratory Organization Page 12 of 32
4.0 PERSONNEL ORIENTATION, DATA INTEGRITY, TRAINING, AND QUALIFICATION 4.1 Orientation All laboratory personnel must receive orientation to the quality program if their work can affect quality. Orientation includes a brief review of customer- and regulatory agency-imposed quality requirements, the structure of the QAM, and the implementing procedures. The goal of orientation is to cover the nature and goals of the QA program.
4.2 Data Integrity The primary output of the Laboratory is data. Special emphasis and training in data integrity is given to all personnel whose work provides or supports data delivery. The Laboratory Data Integrity Procedure (Procedure 1005) describes training, personnel attestations, and monitoring operations. Annual reviews are required.
4.3 Training The Quality Assurance Manager (QAM) maintains a training matrix indicating which laboratory personnel need training in which specific Procedures. This matrix is updated when personnel change or change assignments. All personnel are trained per these requirements and procedures. This training program is described in Procedure 1007. The assigned responsibilities for employees are described in Procedure 1002 (See Section 3.0) on Organization and in Procedure 1006, Job Descriptions. Refresher training or re-training is given annually as appropriate.
4.4 Qualification Personnel are qualified as required by their job description. Management and non-analysts are evaluated based on past experience, education, and managements assessment of their capabilities. Formal qualification is required of analysts and related technical personnel who perform laboratory functions. Each applicable person is given training and then formally evaluated by the Operations Manager (or his designees) and by QA. Each analyst must initially demonstrate capability to perform each assigned analytical effort. Each year, thereafter, he or she must perform similar analyses on Interlab Comparison Samples (see Procedure 4006) or on equivalent blanks and spikes samples. Acceptable results extend qualifications (certification). Unacceptable results require retraining in the subject method / Procedures. (See Procedure 1007 for added information, records, forms, etc. used.)
4.5 Records Records of training subjects, contents, attendees, instructors, and certifications are maintained by QA.

5.0 CUSTOMER INTERFACES 5.1 Interface Personnel The Laboratory has designated Program Managers as the primary interface with all customers. Other interfaces may be the QA Manager or the Lab Operations Manager.
5.2 Bid Requests and Tenders The Program Managers respond to customer requests for bids and proposals per Procedure 1014 for bids, proposals, and contract reviews. They clarify customer requests so both the customer and the lab staff understand requests. As responses are developed, internal reviews are conducted to ensure that requirements are adequately defined and documented and to verify that the Laboratory has adequate resources in physical capabilities, personal skills, and technical information to perform the work. Accreditation needs are reviewed. If subcontracts are required to perform any analysis, the subcontractor is similarly evaluated and the client notified in writing of the effort. Most qualifications are routine with standard pricing and the review of these quotes is performed by the Program Manager. Larger or more complex quotes are reviewed by the Operations Manager and the QA Manager (or designees). Evidence of review is by initialing and dating applicable papers, signatures on quotations, or by memo.
5.3 Contracts The Program Managers receive contract awards (oral or written) and generate the work planning for initiation preparation (charge numbers, data structure or contents in LIMS, etc.). They review contracts for possible differences from quotations and, if acceptable, contracts are processed. Documentation of the review is by initials and date as a minimum. Contract changes receive similar reviews and planning.
5.4 TBEs Expectation of Customers TBE expects customers to provide samples suitable for lab analysis. These expectations include:
Accurate and unambiguous identification of samples Proper collection and preservation of samples Use of appropriate containers free from external and internal contamination Integrity preservation during shipment and timely delivery of samples that are age sensitive Adequate sized samples that allow for retest, if needed Specification of unique MOA/MDC requirements Alerting the lab about abnormal samples (high activity, different chemical contents, etc.)
Chain of custody initiation, when required.
Page 14 of 32
5.5 Customer Satisfaction TBEs quality policy centers on customer satisfaction (See 2.0). TBE will work to satisfy customers through full compliance with contract requirements, providing accurate data and properly responding to any questions or complaints.
Customers are provided full cooperation in their monitoring of Laboratory performance. Customers are notified if any applicable State Accreditation is withdrawn, revoked, or suspended.
5.5.1 Customer Complaints Any customer complaints are documented and tracked to closure. Most complaints concern analysis data and are received by Program Managers. They log each such complaint, order retests for verification, and provide documented results to customers. Complaints may also be received by QA or Operations.
If complaints are other than re-test type, the nonconformance and corrective action systems (Sections 12 and 13) are used to resolve them and record all actions taken.
5.5.2 Customer Confidentiality All laboratory personnel maintain confidentiality of customer-unique information.
Page 15 of 32
6.0 DOCUMENTATION GENERATION & CONTROL 6.1 General The documentation generation and control system is detailed in Procedure 1008. An overview is given below. The basic quality system documents are described in Section 2.0.
6.2 New Documentation Each Procedure and this QAM is written by appropriate personnel, validated if applicable (see Section 7.0), reviewed for adequacy, completeness, and correctness, and, if acceptable, accepted by the authorized approver [QA Manager, Operations Manager (or their designee)]. Both approvals are required if a Procedure affects both QA and Operations. (See Responsibilities in Section 3.0). These procedures control the quality measurements and their accuracy.
Each document carries a unique identification number, a revision level, dates, page numbers and total page count, and approver identification and sign off. If TBE writes code for software, the software is version identified and issued after Verification and Validation per Section 7.0.
6.3 Documentation Changes Each change is reviewed in the same manner and by the same people as new documentation. Revision identifications are updated and changes indicated by side bars, italicized words, or by revision description when practical. Obsolete revisions are maintained by QA after being identified as obsolete.
6.4 Documentation Lists and Distributions Computer indexes of documents are maintained by Quality showing the current authorized revision level of each document. These revisions are placed on the Laboratory server and obsolete ones are removed so that all personnel have only the current documents. If hard copies are produced and distributed, separate distribution lists are maintained indicating who has them and their revision level(s).
Copies downloaded off the server are uncontrolled unless verified by the user (on the computer) to be the latest revision.
6.5 Other Documentation In addition to TBE-generated documentation, QA maintains copies of applicable specifications, regulations, and standard methods.
6.6 Documentation Reviews Each issued document is reviewed at least every third year by the approving personnel. This review determines continued suitability for use and compliance with requirements.

7.0 DESIGN OF LABORATORY CONTROLS 7.1 General The Laboratory and its operating procedures are designed specifically for low level (environmental and in-plant) radioactive sample analysis. The various aspects of the laboratory design include the following which are discussed in subsequent paragraphs of this Section:
(a) Facility (b) Technical Processes and Methods (c) Verification of Design of Processes, Methods, and Software.
(d) Design of Quality Controls (e) Counting Instrument Controls 7.2 Facility The facility was designed and built in 2000 to facilitate correct performance of operations in accordance with good laboratory practices and regulatory requirements. It provides security for operations and samples. It separates sample storage areas based on activity levels, separates wet chemistry from counting instrumentation for contamination control, and provides space and electronic systems for documentation, analysis, and record storage. Procedure 4014 describes the facility, room uses, layouts, etc.
7.3 Technical Processes and Methods 7.3.1 Operational Flow The laboratory design provides for sample receipt and storage (including special environmental provisions for perishable items) where samples are received from clients and other labs (see Section 9.0). The samples are logged into the computer based Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and receive unique identification numbers and bar code labels. (See Procedure 4017 for LIMS description and user procedures). The Program Managers then plan the work and assure LIMS contains any special instructions to analysts. Samples then go to sample preparation, wet chemistry (for chemical separation), and counting based on the radionuclides. See Procedures in the 2000 and 3000 series. Analysts perform the required tasks with data being entered into logbooks, LIMS, and counting equipment data systems as appropriate. Results are collected and reviewed by the Operations Manager and Program Managers and reports to clients are generated (See Section 14.0). All records (electronic or hard copy) are maintained in files or in back-up electronic copies (see Section 15.0). After the required hold periods and client notification and approval, samples are disposed of in compliance with regulatory requirements (see Procedures 5003 and 5004).
Page 17 of 32
7.3.2 Methods The laboratory methods documented in the 2000 and 3000 series of Procedures were primarily developed by senior TBE laboratory personnel based on years of experience at our prior facility in New Jersey. They have been improved, supplemented and implemented here. Where EPA or other accepted national methods exist (primarily for water analyses under State certification programs - see Procedure 4010), the TBE methods conform to the imposed requirements or State accepted alternate requirements. Any method modifications are documented and described in the Procedure. There are no nationally recognized methods for most other analysis methods but references to other method documents are noted where applicable.
7.3.3 Data Reduction and Analysis Whenever possible automatic data capture and computerized data reduction programs are used. Calculations are either performed using commercial software (counting system operating systems) or TBE developed and validated software is used (see 7.4 below). Analysis of reduced data is performed as described in Section 14.0 and Procedure 4004.
7.4 Verification of Technical Processes, Methods, and Software 7.4.1 Operational Flow Verification The entire QA Manual and related procedures describe the verification of elements of the technical process flow and the establishment of quality check points, reviews, and controls.
7.4.2 Method Verifications Methods are verified and validated per Procedure 4007 prior to use unless otherwise agreed to by the client. For most TBE methods initial validation occurred well in the past. New or significantly revised Methods receive initial validation by demonstration of their performance using known analytes (NIST traceable) in appropriate matrices. Sufficient samples are run to obtain statistical data that provides evidence of process capability and control, establishes detection levels (see procedure 4009), bias and precision data (see Procedure 4011). All method procedures and validation data are available to respective clients. Also see Section 7.5 below for the Demonstration of Capability program.
7.4.3 Data Reduction and Analysis Verification Data reduction and analysis verification is performed by personnel who did not generate the data. (See Section 14.0).
7.5 Design of Quality Controls Page 18 of 32
7.5.1 General There are multiple quality controls designed into the laboratory operations.
Many of these are described elsewhere in this manual and include personnel qualification (Section 4.0), Document control (6.0), Sample identification and control (9.0), Use of reference standards (10.0), intra- and inter- laboratory tests (10.0), etc.
This Section describes the basic quality control systems used to verify Method capability and performance.
7.5.2 Demonstration of Capability (D of C)
The demonstration of capability system verifies and documents that the method, analyst, and the equipment can perform within acceptable limits. The D of C is certified for each combination of analyte, method, and instrument type. D of C's are certified based on objective evidence at least annually. This program is combined with the analyst D of C program (See Section 4.0). Initial D of C's use the method validation effort as covered above. Subsequent D of C's use Inter-Laboratory samples (Procedure 4006) or, if necessary, laboratory generated samples using NIST traceable standards. If results are outside of control limits, re-demonstration is required after investigation and corrective action is accomplished (See Sections 12.0 and 13.0) 7.5.3 Process Control Checks Process control checks are designed to include Inter-Lab samples, Intra-lab QC check samples, and customer provided check samples. 10% of laboratory analysis samples are for process control purposes.
7.5.3.1 Inter- Lab Samples. Inter-lab samples are procured or obtained from sources providing analytes of interest in matrices similar to normal client samples. These samples may be used for Demonstration of Capability of analyst's, equipment and methods. They also provide for independent insight into the lab's process capabilities. Any value reported as being in the warning zone (over 2 sigma) is reviewed and improvements taken. Any value failing (over 3 sigma) is documented on an NCR and formal investigation per Section 12.0 and 13.0 is performed. If root causes are not clearly understood and fixed, re-tests are required using lab prepared samples (See Procedure 4006).
7.5.3.2 QC Samples. QC samples, along with Inter-lab samples and customer check samples, are 10% of the annual lab workload for the applicable analyte and method. If batch processing is used, some specifications require specific checks with each batch or each day rather than as continuous process controls.
(See Procedure 4005)
QC samples consist of multiple types of samples including:
(a) Method blanks (b) Blank spikes (c) Matrix spikes Page 19 of 32
(d) Duplicates (e) Tracers and carriers Acceptance limits for these samples are given in Procedures or in lab standards. The number, frequency, and use of these sample types varies with the method, matrix, and supplemental requirements. The patterns of use versus method and the use of the resulting test data is described in Procedure 4005.
7.5.3.3 Customer Provided Check Samples. Customers may provide blind check samples and duplicates to aid in their evaluation of the Laboratory. When the lab is notified that samples are check samples their results are included in the QC sample percentage counts. Any reported problems are treated as formal complaints and investigated per Section 5.
7.6 Counting Instrument Controls The calibration of instruments is their primary control and is described in Section 11.0. In addition, counting procedures (3000 series) also specify use of background checks (method blank data is not used for this) to evaluate possible counting equipment contamination. Instrument calibration checks using a lab standard from a different source than the one used for calibration are also used.
Background data can be used to adjust client and test data. Checks with lab standards indicate potential calibration changes.
Page 20 of 32
8.0 PURCHASING AND SUBCONTRACT CONTROLS 8.1 General Procurement and Subcontracts efforts use the Huntsville-based Cost Point computer system to process orders. The Laboratory-generated Purchase Requisitions are electronically copied into Purchase Orders in Huntsville. The Laboratory also specifies sources to be used. Procured items and services are received at the Laboratory where receiving checks and inspections are made.
Laboratory Procedure 1015 provides details on the procurement control system at the Laboratory and references the Huntsville procedures as applicable.
8.2 Source Selection Sources for procurements of items and services are evaluated and approved by QA as described in Procedure 1015. Nationally recognized catalog item sources are approved by the QA Manager based on reputation. Maintenance services by an approved distributor or the equipment manufacturing company are pre-approved.
Sources for other services are evaluated by QA, based on service criticality to the quality system, by phone, mail out, or site visit.
Subcontract sources for laboratory analysis services are only placed with accredited laboratories (by NELAP, NUPIC, State, Client, etc.) as applicable for the type of analysis to be performed. QA maintains lists of approved vendors and records of evaluations performed.
8.3 Procurement of Supplies and Support Services 8.3.1 Catalog Supplies The Laboratory procures reagents, processing chemicals, laboratory glassware, consumables, and other catalog items from nationally known vendors and to applicable laboratory grades, purities, concentrations, accuracy levels, etc.
Purchase Requisitions for these items specify catalog numbers or similar call-outs for these off-the-shelf items. Requisitions are generated by the personnel in the lab needing the item and are approved by the Operations or Production Manager.
Reagents are analytical reagent grade only.
8.3.2 Support Services Purchase Requisitions for support services (such as balance calibration, equipment maintenance, etc.) are processed as in 8.3.1 but technical requirements are specified and reviewed before approvals are given.
Page 21 of 32
8.3.3 Equipment and Software Purchase Requisitions for new equipment, software programs, and major facility modifications affecting the quality system are reviewed and approved by the Operations Manager and the QA Manager.
8.4 Subcontracting of Analytical Services When necessary, the Laboratory may subcontract analytical services required by a client. This may be because of special needs, infrequency of analysis, etc.
Applicable quality and regulatory requirements are imposed in the Purchase Requisition and undergo a technical review by QA. TBE reserves the right of access by TBE and our client for verification purposes.
8.5 Acceptance of Items or Services Items and services affecting the quality system are verified at receipt based on objective evidence supplied by the vendor. Supply items are reviewed by the requisitioner and, if acceptable, are accepted via annotation on the vendor packing list or similar document. Similarly, equipment services are accepted by the requisitioning lab person. Calibration services are accepted by QA based on certification reviews. (See Section 11.0.)
Data reports from analytical subcontractors are evaluated by Program Managers and subsequently by the Operations Manager (or designee) as part of client report reviews.
Items are not used until accepted and if items or services are rejected, QA is notified and nonconformance controls per Section 12.0 are followed. Vendors may be removed from the approved vendors list if their performance is unacceptable.

9.0 TEST SAMPLE IDENTIFICATION AND CONTROL 9.1 Sample Identification Incoming samples are inspected for customer identification, container condition, chain of custody forms, and radioactivity levels. If acceptable, the sample information is entered into LIMS which generates bar coded labels for attachment to the sample(s). The labels are attached and samples stored in the assigned location.
If environmental controls are needed (refrigeration, freezing, etc.), the samples are placed in these storage locations. If not acceptable, the Program Manager is notified, the customer contacted, and the problem resolved (return of sample, added data receipts, etc.). See Procedure 4003 for more information on sample receipt.
9.2 LIMS The LIMS is used to schedule work, provide special information to analysts, and record all actions taken on samples. See Procedure 4017 and the 6000 series of procedures for more information on LIMS operations.
9.3 Sample Control The sample, with its bar coded label, is logged out to the applicable lab operation where the sample is processed per the applicable methods (Procedures 2000 and 3000). The LIMS-assigned numbers are used for identification through all operations to record data. Data is entered into LIMS, log books (kept by the analysts) or equipment data systems to record data. The combination of LIMS, logbooks, and equipment data systems provide the Chain of Custody data and document all actions taken on samples. Unused sample portions are returned to its storage area for possible verification use. Samples are discarded after required time limits are passed and after client notification and approval, if required.

10.0 SPECIAL PROCESSES, INSPECTION, AND TEST 10.1 Special Processes The Laboratorys special processes are the methods used to analyze a sample and control equipment. These methods are defined in Procedures in the 2000 and 3000 series. These processes are performed to the qualified methods (see Section 7.0) by qualified people (see 4.0).
10.2 Inspections and Tests The quality of the process is monitored by indirect means. This program involves calibration checks on counting equipments (see Section 11.0), intra-laboratory checks, and inter-laboratory checks. In addition, some customers submit quality control check samples (blinds, duplicates, external reference standards). All generated data gets independent reviews.
10.2.1 Intra Laboratory Checks (QC Checks)
The quantity and types of checks varies with the method, but basic checks which may include blanks, spiked blanks, matrix spikes, matrix spike duplicates, and duplicates are used as appropriate for customer samples. This process is described in Procedure 4005 and in Section 7.0.
10.2.2 Inter Laboratory Checks TBE participates in Inter-lab performance evaluation (check) programs with multiple higher level labs. These programs provide blind matrices for the types of matrix/analyte combinations routinely processed by the Lab, if available. This program is described in Procedure 4006.
10.2.3 Data Reviews Raw data and reports are reviewed by the Operations Manager, or designees. This review checks for data logic, expected results, procedure compliance, etc. (See Section 14.0).
10.3 Control of Sampling of Samples Samples for analysis are supplied by customers preferably in quantities sufficient to allow re-verification analyses if needed. The samples are prepared for analysis by analysts and then an aliquot (partial sample extraction) is taken from the homogeneous customer sample for the initial analysis. Methods specify standard volumes of sample material required. Sampling data is recorded in LIMS and/or logbooks.
10.4 Reference Standards / Material Page 24 of 32
10.4.1 Weights and Temperatures Reference standards are used by the Laboratorys calibration vendor to calibrate the Labs working instruments measuring weights and thermometers.
10.4.2 Radioactive Materials Reference radioactive standards, traceable to NIST, are procured from higher level laboratories. These reference materials are maintained in the standards area and are diluted down for use by laboratory analysts. All original and diluted volumes are fully traceable to source, procedure, analyst, dilution, and acquisition dates. See Section 11.0 and Procedure 1009.

11.0 EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE AND CALIBRATION 11.1 General There are two types of equipment used by the Laboratory: support equipment (scales, glassware, weights, thermometers, etc.) and instruments for counting. Standards traceable to NIST are used for calibration and are of the needed accuracy for laboratory operations. Procedures 1009, 4018, and 4019 describe the calibration and maintenance programs.
11.2 Support Equipment Analytical support equipment is purchased with the necessary accuracies and appropriate calibration data. If needed, initial calibration by the Laboratory or its calibration vendor is performed. Recalibration schedules are established and equipment recalibrated by the scheduled date by a calibration vendor or by Laboratory personnel. Maintenance is performed, as needed, per manufacturers manuals or lab procedures.
In addition to calibrations and recalibrations, checks are made on the continued accuracy of items as described in Procedure 1009. Records are maintained of calibration and specified checks.
11.3 Instruments Instruments receive initial calibration using radioactive sources traceable to NIST. The initial calibration establishes statistical limits of variation that are used to set control limits for future checks and recalibration. This process is described in Procedure 4018. Instruments are maintained per Instrument Manual requirements.
Recalibrations are performed per the Procedure.
Between calibrations, check sources are used to assure no significant changes have occurred in the calibration of items. Background checks are performed to check for possible radioactive contamination. Background values are used to adjust sample results. Hardware and software are safeguarded from adjustments that could invalidate calibrations or results.
11.4 Nonconformances and Corrective Actions If calibrations or checks indicate a problem, the nonconformance system (Section 12.0) and corrective action system (Section 13.0) are initiated to document the problem and its resolution. Equipment is promptly removed from service if questionable.
Page 26 of 32
11.5 Records Records of calibrations are maintained. Calibration certificates from calibration vendors are maintained by QA. Other calibration data and check data is maintained in log books, LIMS, or instrument software as appropriate and as described in Procedures 1009, 4018, and 4019.

12.0 NONCONFORMANCE CONTROLS 12.1 General The nonconformance control system is implemented whenever a nonconforming condition on any aspect of Laboratory analysis, testing, or results exist. The system takes graded actions based on the nature and severity of the nonconformance. Nonconforming items or processes are controlled to prevent inadvertent use. Nonconformances are documented and dispositioned. Notification is made to affected organizations, including clients. Procedure 1010 describes the procedures followed. Sample results are only reported after resolution.
12.2 Responsibility and Authority Each Laboratory employee has the responsibility to report nonconformances and the authority to stop performing nonconforming work or using nonconforming equipment. Laboratory supervision can disposition and take corrective actions on minor problems. Any significant problem is documented by QA using the Laboratorys NCR system per Procedure 1010. QA conducts or assures the conduct of cause analyses, disposition of items or data, and initiation of corrective action if the nonconformance could recur.
12.3 10CFR21 Reporting The QA Manager reviews NCRs for possible need of customer and/or NRC notification per the requirements of 10CFR21. Procedure 1011 is followed in this review and for any required reporting.
Page 28 of 32
13.0 CORRECTIVE AND PREVENTIVE ACTIONS 13.1 General The Laboratory takes corrective actions on significant nonconformances (see Section 12.0). It also initiates preventive and improvement actions per the Company Quality Policy (see Section 2.0). The procedures for Corrective Action/Preventive Action systems are contained in Procedure 1012.
13.2 Corrective Actions Corrective actions are taken by Operations and Quality to promptly correct significant conditions adverse to quality. The condition is identified and cause analysis is performed to identify root causes. Solutions are evaluated and the optimum one selected that will prevent recurrence, can be implemented by the Laboratory, allows the Laboratory to meet its other goals, and is commensurate with the significance of the problem. All steps are documented, action plans developed for major efforts, and reports made to Management. QA verifies the implementation effectiveness. Procedure 1012 provides instructions and designates authorities and responsibilities.
13.3 Preventive Actions Preventive actions are improvements intended to reduce the potential for nonconformances. Possible preventive actions are developed from suggestions from employees and from analysis of Laboratory technical and quality systems by management. If preventive actions or improvements are selected for investigation, the issues, investigation, recommendations, and implementation actions are documented. Follow up verifies effectiveness.

14.0 RESULTS ANALYSIS AND REPORTING 14.1 General The Laboratorys role is to provide measurement-based information to clients that is technically valid, legally defensible, and of known quality.
14.2 Results Review The results obtained from analytical efforts are collected and reviewed by the Operations Manager and the Program Manager. This review verifies the reasonableness and consistency of the results. It includes review of sample and the related QC activity data. Procedure 4002 describes the process. Any deficiencies are corrected by re-analyses, recalculations, or corrective actions per Sections 12.0 and 13.0. Use of the LIMS with its automatic data loading features (see Procedure 4017) minimizes the possibility of transcription or calculation errors.
14.3 Reports Reports range from simple results reporting to elaborate analytical reports based on the client requirements and imposed specifications and standards. (See Procedure 4004.) Reports present results accurately, clearly, unambiguously, objectively, and as required by the applicable Method(s). Reports include reproduction restrictions, information on any deviations from methods, and any needed data qualifiers based on QC data. If any data is supplied by analytical subcontractors (see Section 8.0), it is clearly identified and attributed to that Laboratory by either name or accreditation number.
If results are faxed or transmitted electronically, confidentiality statements are included in case of receipt by other than the intended client.
Reports are approved by the Program Manager and Operations Manager and record copies kept in file (See Section 15.0).
Page 30 of 32
15.0 RECORDS 15.1 General The Laboratory collects generated data and information related to quality or technical data and maintains them as records. Records are identified, prepared, reviewed, placed in storage, and maintained as set forth in Procedure 1003.
15.2 Type of Records All original observations, calculations, derived data, calibration data, and test reports are included. In addition QA data such as audits, management reviews, corrective and preventive actions, manuals, and procedures are included.
15.3 Storage and Retention Records are stored in files after completion in the lab. Files are in specified locations and under the control of custodians. Filing systems provide for retrieval.
Electronic files are kept on Company servers (with regular back up) or on media stored in fireproof file cabinets. Records are kept in Laboratory files for at least 2 years after the last entry and then in Company files for another year as a minimum.
Some customers specify larger periods - up to 7 years - which is also met. Generic records supporting multiple customers are kept for the longest applicable period.
15.4 Destruction or Disposal Records may be destroyed after the retention period and after client notification and acceptance, if required. If the Laboratory closes, records will go in to company storage in Huntsville unless otherwise directed by customers. If the Laboratory is sold, either the new owner will accept record ownership or the records will go into Company storage as stated above.

16.0 ASSESSMENTS 16.1 General Assessments consist of internal audits and management reviews as set forth in Procedure 1013.
16.2 Audits Internal audits are planned, performed at least annually on all areas of the quality system, and are performed by qualified people who are as independent as possible from the activity audited. (The Laboratorys small size inhibits full independence in some technical areas.) Audits are coordinated by the Quality Manager who assures audit plans and checklists are generated and the results documented. Reports include descriptions of any findings and provide the auditors assessment of the effectiveness of the audited activity. Report data includes personnel contacted.
Audit findings are reviewed with management and corrective actions agreed to and scheduled. Follow up is performed by QA to verify accomplishment and effectiveness of the corrective action.
16.3 Management Reviews The Annual Quality Assurance Report, prepared for some clients, is the Management Review vehicle. These reports cover audit results, corrective and preventive actions, external assessments, and QC and inter-laboratory performance checks. The report is reviewed with Management by the QA Manager for the continued suitability of the Quality Program and its effectiveness. Any needed improvements are defined, documented, and implemented. Follow ups are made to verify implementation and effectiveness.
