: 2. The dose or dose commitment to a member of the public from radioactivity in liquid effluents released to unrestricted areas shall be limited to
: a. Less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the total body and less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ during any calendar quarter.
: b. Less than or equal to 3 mrem to the total body and less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ during any calendar year.
: 2. MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE CONCENTRATION A. Liquids al. The maximum permissible concentrations (MPC) for liquids are those listed in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, with the most restr'ctive MPC being used in all cases. For dissolved and entrained gases the MPC of 2.0E-04 uC1/ml is applied. This MPC is based on the Xe-135 MPC in air (submersion dose) converted to an equivalent concentration in water as discussed in the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP),
Publication 2.
B. Gaseous
      *l. The maximum permissible dose rates for gaseous releases are defined in plant Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM).
: a. Noble gas dose rate at the site boundary:
                    - Less than or equal to 500 mrem / year to the total body,
                    - Less than or equal to 3000 mrem / year to skin.
: b. Iodine-131, iodine-133, tritium, and particulates with half-lives greater than eight days dose rate at the site boundary:
                  - Less than or equal to 1500 mrem / year to any organ.
: 3. AVERAGE ENERGY Sequoyah's ODCM limits the dose equivalent rates due to the release of noble gases to less than or equal to 500 mrem / year to the total body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem / year to the skin.      Therefore, the average beta and gamma energies it) for gaseous effluents as described in Regulatory Guide 1.21, " Measuring, Evaluation, and Reporting Radioactivity in Solid Wastes and Releases of Radioactive Materials in Liquid and                l Gaseous Effluents from Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants," are not applicable.
  *These values are used as applicable limits for liquid and gaseous effluents.

: 4. heasurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity NOTE:    Every effort is made to ensure that effluent releases from Sequoyah are conducted such that all Offsite Dose Calculation Panual (ODCM) Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) values are met.
Whenever an analysis does not identify a radioisotope, a "O.00E-01 Ci" is recorded for the release. This does not necessarily mean that no activity was released for that particular radionuclide, but that the concentration was below the ODCM and analysis LLD.
Refer to Tables A and B for estimates of these typical LLD valuee,
: a. Fission and Activation Gases Airborne effluent gaseous activity is continuously monitored and recorded. Additional grab samples from the shield building, auxiliary building, service building, and condenser vacuum exhausts are taken and analyzed at least monthly to determine the quantity of noble gas activity released for the month based on the average vent flowrates recorded for the sample period. Also, noble gas samples are collected and evaluated for the shield and auxiliary buildings following startup, shutdown, or rated thermal power change exceeding 15 percent within one hour (sampling only required if dose equivalent I-131 concentration in the primary coolant or the noble gas activity monitor shows that the containment activity has increased more than a factor of 3).
The quantity of noble gases released through the shield and auxiliary building exhausts due to purging or venting of containment and releases of waste gas decay tanks are also determined.
The total noble gas activity released for the month is then determined by summing all of the activity released from each vent for all sampling periods,
: b. Iodines and Particulates Iodine and particulate activity is continuously sampled.      Charcoal and particulate samples are taken from the shield and auxiliary building exhausts and analyzed at least weekly to determine the total activity released from the plant based on the average vent flowrates recorded for sampling period.
Also, particulate and charcoal samples are taken from the auxiliary and shield building exhausts once per 24 hours for 2 days following startup, shutdown, or a rated thermal power change exceeding 15 percent within one hour. The quantity of iodine and particulate released from each vent during each sampling period is then determined us.'ng the average vent flowrates recorded for the sampling period and activity concentration.
The total particulate and iodine activity released for the month is then determined by summing all of the activity released from the shield and auxi)iary building exhausts for all sampling periods.

: 4. Measurements and Approximation of Total Radioactivity (continued)
: c. Liquid Effluents i
Batch (Radwaste and during periods of primary to secondary leakage, condensate regenerants to cooling tower blowdown)
Total gamma isotopic activity concentrations are determined on each batch of liquid effluent prior to release. The total activity of a released batch is determined by summing each nuclide's concentration and multiplying by the total volume discharged. The total activity released during a month is then determined by summing the activity content of each batch discharged j          during the month.
Continuous Releases and Periodic Continuous Releases (Condensate regenerants, turbine building sump and steam generator blowdown) i Total gamma isotopic activity concentration is determined daily on a composite sample from the condensate system and turbine building sump and weekly for steam generator blowdown. The total activity of the continuous release is determined by summing each nuclide's concentration and multiplying by the total volume discharged. The total activity released during the month is then determined by summing the activity content of each daily and weekly composite for the month.

The primary downtime was related to the ability to maintain radiation monitor sample flow. Both ERCW train were in an outage which essentially placed the train out-of-service thus not having adequate volume to maintain radiation monitor sample flow.                                  l l
ERCW-Train B radiation monitors were inoperable due to flow switches being          i found out-of-calibration tolerance during the required quarterly evaluation.        ,
The flow switches were unable to be calibrated within tolerance and were declared inoperable. A work request was prepared for both monitors to implement the use of a new and different flow switch. Since the required modifications in the flow switch required a design change the 30-day ODCM time frame was exceeded.
The turbine building sump (0-RM-90-212) was inoperable for greater than 30 days due to a shutdown board 1A-A outage followed by flow restriction problems.
Condensate demin radiation monitor was inoperable due to air inleakage from the mechanical seals of an associated discharge pump. Air in the sample prevented the monitor from receiving an adequate sample. Since the problem was not at the monitor itself, it took longer than normal to troubleshoot.
The pump seals have since been replaced.

EFFLUENT AND WASTE DISPOSAL ANNUAL REPORT SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION 1993

2. The dose or dose commitment to a member of the public from radioactivity in liquid effluents released to unrestricted areas shall be limited to
a. Less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the total body and less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ during any calendar quarter.
b. Less than or equal to 3 mrem to the total body and less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ during any calendar year.
2. MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE CONCENTRATION A. Liquids al. The maximum permissible concentrations (MPC) for liquids are those listed in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, with the most restr'ctive MPC being used in all cases. For dissolved and entrained gases the MPC of 2.0E-04 uC1/ml is applied. This MPC is based on the Xe-135 MPC in air (submersion dose) converted to an equivalent concentration in water as discussed in the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP),

Publication 2.

B. Gaseous

a. Noble gas dose rate at the site boundary:

- Less than or equal to 500 mrem / year to the total body,

- Less than or equal to 3000 mrem / year to skin.

b. Iodine-131, iodine-133, tritium, and particulates with half-lives greater than eight days dose rate at the site boundary:

- Less than or equal to 1500 mrem / year to any organ.

3. AVERAGE ENERGY Sequoyah's ODCM limits the dose equivalent rates due to the release of noble gases to less than or equal to 500 mrem / year to the total body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem / year to the skin. Therefore, the average beta and gamma energies it) for gaseous effluents as described in Regulatory Guide 1.21, " Measuring, Evaluation, and Reporting Radioactivity in Solid Wastes and Releases of Radioactive Materials in Liquid and l Gaseous Effluents from Light-Water-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants," are not applicable.
  • These values are used as applicable limits for liquid and gaseous effluents.

4. heasurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity NOTE: Every effort is made to ensure that effluent releases from Sequoyah are conducted such that all Offsite Dose Calculation Panual (ODCM) Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) values are met.

Whenever an analysis does not identify a radioisotope, a "O.00E-01 Ci" is recorded for the release. This does not necessarily mean that no activity was released for that particular radionuclide, but that the concentration was below the ODCM and analysis LLD.

Refer to Tables A and B for estimates of these typical LLD valuee,

a. Fission and Activation Gases Airborne effluent gaseous activity is continuously monitored and recorded. Additional grab samples from the shield building, auxiliary building, service building, and condenser vacuum exhausts are taken and analyzed at least monthly to determine the quantity of noble gas activity released for the month based on the average vent flowrates recorded for the sample period. Also, noble gas samples are collected and evaluated for the shield and auxiliary buildings following startup, shutdown, or rated thermal power change exceeding 15 percent within one hour (sampling only required if dose equivalent I-131 concentration in the primary coolant or the noble gas activity monitor shows that the containment activity has increased more than a factor of 3).

The quantity of noble gases released through the shield and auxiliary building exhausts due to purging or venting of containment and releases of waste gas decay tanks are also determined.

The total noble gas activity released for the month is then determined by summing all of the activity released from each vent for all sampling periods,

b. Iodines and Particulates Iodine and particulate activity is continuously sampled. Charcoal and particulate samples are taken from the shield and auxiliary building exhausts and analyzed at least weekly to determine the total activity released from the plant based on the average vent flowrates recorded for sampling period.

Also, particulate and charcoal samples are taken from the auxiliary and shield building exhausts once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> for 2 days following startup, shutdown, or a rated thermal power change exceeding 15 percent within one hour. The quantity of iodine and particulate released from each vent during each sampling period is then determined us.'ng the average vent flowrates recorded for the sampling period and activity concentration.

The total particulate and iodine activity released for the month is then determined by summing all of the activity released from the shield and auxi)iary building exhausts for all sampling periods.

4. Measurements and Approximation of Total Radioactivity (continued)
c. Liquid Effluents i

Batch (Radwaste and during periods of primary to secondary leakage, condensate regenerants to cooling tower blowdown)

Total gamma isotopic activity concentrations are determined on each batch of liquid effluent prior to release. The total activity of a released batch is determined by summing each nuclide's concentration and multiplying by the total volume discharged. The total activity released during a month is then determined by summing the activity content of each batch discharged j during the month.

Continuous Releases and Periodic Continuous Releases (Condensate regenerants, turbine building sump and steam generator blowdown) i Total gamma isotopic activity concentration is determined daily on a composite sample from the condensate system and turbine building sump and weekly for steam generator blowdown. The total activity of the continuous release is determined by summing each nuclide's concentration and multiplying by the total volume discharged. The total activity released during the month is then determined by summing the activity content of each daily and weekly composite for the month.

Effluent and Waste Disposal Annual Report 1993 Attachment 1.0 INOPERABLE INSTRUMENTATION l

Pursuant to ODCM Section 1.1.1, the following information is provided concerning radioactive effluent monitoring instrumentation which was inoperable for greater than 30 consecutive days during the period of January 1, 1993, through December 31, 1993.

Radiation Monitor System Date/ Time Date/ Time Total Number Monitored Out of Service Returned to Service Days j 0-RM-90-134/141 ERCW-Train B 1/8/93 1320 2/13/93 1425 37 5/16/93 0705 7/23/93 1500 38 O-RM-90-212 Turbina Bldg. 5/11/93 1433 6/15/93 1638 35 Sump i

0-RM-90-225 condensate 11/11/93 1035 12/23/93 1510 41 l Demin Eff. j ERCW radiation monitors (0-RM-90-133/140, 134/141) were inoperable numerous times throughout the year. The primary downtime was related to the ability to maintain radiation monitor sample flow. Both ERCW train were in an outage which essentially placed the train out-of-service thus not having adequate volume to maintain radiation monitor sample flow. l l

ERCW-Train B radiation monitors were inoperable due to flow switches being i found out-of-calibration tolerance during the required quarterly evaluation. ,

The flow switches were unable to be calibrated within tolerance and were declared inoperable. A work request was prepared for both monitors to implement the use of a new and different flow switch. Since the required modifications in the flow switch required a design change the 30-day ODCM time frame was exceeded.

The turbine building sump (0-RM-90-212) was inoperable for greater than 30 days due to a shutdown board 1A-A outage followed by flow restriction problems.

Condensate demin radiation monitor was inoperable due to air inleakage from the mechanical seals of an associated discharge pump. Air in the sample prevented the monitor from receiving an adequate sample. Since the problem was not at the monitor itself, it took longer than normal to troubleshoot.

The pump seals have since been replaced.

l-Effluent and Waste Disposal Annual Report 1993 Attachment 2.0 Missed Surveillance l

ODCM Section 1.2.2.1 requires that if samples were not collected and analyzed according to a specified frequency then report with an explanation as to why j they were missed and actions taken to prevent reoccurrence.

ODCM SR 2.2.2.1.2 requires monitoring of the applicable units shield building cxhaust once per day for tritium during refueling when the refueling canal is flooded. Unit 1 had completed all refueling operations, the head had been put in place but not fully tensioned, and was in preparation for draindown. The l

table below identifies the partial July '93 sampling frequency for the shield building exhaust. Samples for 7/13 through 7/15 were not collected and analyzed due to a communication error between Operations and Chemistry )

personnel in verifying the status of the refueling canal.  ;

The sample collected on 7/16-16:08 was used in covering the time frame in question. If the average concentration was used to evaluate the release period the dose rate would decrease due to the low flowrate. The instruction used by Chemistry was revised to more clearly identify the surveillance and i the applicability with regard to the refueling canal.
