2.4.1 Finsion and Activation Gases (Noble Gases)
For continuous releases, a gas grab sample was analyzed monthly fcr noble gases. Each week a Gas Ratio (GR) vas calculated according to the following equation:
GR = Average Weekly Noble Gas Monitor Reading Monitor Reading During Noble Gas Sampling The monthly sample analysis and weekly Gas Ratio were then used to determine noble gases discharged continuously for the I
previous week. For gas decay tank and containment purge batch releases, a gas grab sample was analyzed prior to release to determine neble gas concentrations in the batch.
In all cases the total radioactivity in gaseous effluents was determined from measured concentrations of each radionuclide present and the total volume discharged.

Iodines and particulates discharged were sampled using a continuous sampler which contained a charcoal cartridge and a particulate filter. Zach week the charcoal cartridge and particulate filter were analyzed for gamma em!tters using gamma spectroscopy. The determined radicauclide concentrations and effluent volume discharged were used to calculate the previous week's activity releasna.
The particulate samples vere composited and analyzed quarterly for Sr-89 and Sr-90 by a contract laboratory (Teledyne Isotopes). Particu'. ate gross alpha activity was measured weekly using alpha scintillation counting techniques. The determined activities were used to estimate effluent concentrations in subsequent releases until the next scheduled analysis was performed, f

* i 2.6 Abnorms1 R31 eases 2.6.1 Abnormal Release on April 3, 1988.
On April 3, 1988, an unplanned, unmonitored and uncontrolled
                            . release of radioactivity occurred during removal of the outside door of the containment equipment hatch. At no time were any Technical Specifications dose limits exceeded.
Description of Event:
On the evening of April 2, 1988 the steps necessary to open the equipment hatch commenced. At approximately 0025 on April 3, 1988, leak rate testing on the equipment hatch was completed and removal of the outer door began, Just before 0200, the Personnel Conte.mination Monitors (PCM-l's) and friskers located outside of the equipment hatch on the Q-Deck began alarming. A noble gas sample obtained at 0200 indicated the presence of Xe-133 in the area just outside of the equipment hatch at a concentration of 1.6E-06 uCi/ce. A subsequent sample pulled at 0311 showed that the Xe-133 concentration had increased to 2.7E-06 uCi/ce. The source of the activity was investigated. It was determined that the activity was ori-ginatinp from the cuntainment annulus. The activity in the l                            annulus came from earlier operation of Containment Atmosphere Removal System (CARS). Therefore, shield building ventilation was resumed at 0340. Q-Deck samples collected at 0357 showed that Xe-133 actinity had increased to a maximum of 5.5E-06 uCi/cc. At 0455 a noble gas sample collected just outside the equipment hatch indicated no detectable levels of activity.
Opening of the equipment hatch was completed at approximately 0900.

Cause of Event:
The root cause of the release was related to shield building ventilation not being run while the outer hatch wcs being removed. After the seals on the outer hatch were deflated, activity present in the containnent annulus was allowed to escape.
Corrective Actions:
In order to prevent a recurrence of this type of release, procedures are being modified to require shield building ventilation to be run continuously while the seal on the outer door is deflated. If required, shield building ventilation would only be secured long enough to move th9 door to the open position. Shielding building ventilation would not be required as long as containment purge is operating. Having shield building ventilation operating will help prevent any release of activity from the containment annulus or from leakage past the inner door seal.
Radiological Consequences of the Release:
A total amount of 3800 uCi of Xe-133 were estimated to have been released during this event. The gamma and beta doses in air from this release were calculated to be SE-07 and IE-06 mrad, respectively. These doses are SE-06 and 7E-06 percent of the respective annual ganma and beta dose limits (approximately IE-05 percent of the gamma and beta quarterly limits) allowed by Technical Specifications. Therefore, the doses resulting from this release were deemed to be insignificant.
W310526HP                      9
 
Since a release rate from the Q-Deck area or Containment annulus could not be reliably calculated due to low flow rates, the instantaneous dose rates could not be calculated directly. However, calculations indicate that to exceed the instantaneous dose rate limits, an exit velocity of 280 miles per hour would have to be attained. At no time was this exit velocity possible. Therefore, the instantaneous release rate limits could not have beca exceeded.
2.6.2 Abnormal Release on May 23, 1988 On May 23, 1988, a small amount of radioactivity (Co-58 and I-131) was released through an abnormal release pathway.
This monitored and controlled release occurred during Integrated Leak Rate Testing (ILRT) depressurization.
Initial sampling of the containment atmosphere prior to the release indicated that the effluent did not contain radioactive concentrations above the appropriate lower limits of detection (LLD's) (i.e., no activity was detected).
However, continuous sa ples collected during the release and later analyded indicated the presence of activity. The post-release measured radioactive concentrations of I-131 and Co 58 in the effluent were determined to be at and below the pre-release lower limits of detection (i.e., activity was present at levels lower than could be reliably detected in the pre-release samples). The reason this activity was detected in the release samples and not in the pre-release samples is due to the fact that a much larger sample volume was collected during the release. With this increased sample volume, much lower detection levels were attained and activity was detected. The samples taken prior to release satisfied the appropriate Technical Specification LLD's and although the release occurred through an abnormal pathway, the pathway was monitored and continuous samples were collected. Based on the results of these continuous samples, at no time were any Technical Specification dose limits exceeded.

Description of Event:
During Integrated Leak Rate Testing of containment, the containment is pressurized to a maximum pressure of 44 psig.
After obtaining the required measurements, containm-nt must be depressurized by discharging the excess air added during the pressurization phase. Current wording in Table 4.11-2 of the Waterford 3 Technical Specifications does not specifically    ;
address sampling requirements associated with ILRT depressuri-    ;
zation. While ILRT depressurization is not technically a containment purge (by Definition 1.23 in the Technical Speci-fications), it was decided that pathway restrictions and sampling requirements associated with purging containment of airborne radioactivity were applicable. Therefore, if            '
the containment atmosphere contained radioactivity, it would      t be released via the plant stack.                                  ;
1 In order to depressurize containment through the plant stack the normal purge pathway could not be used due to the damage that would occur to the duct work from the calculated exit        ;
velocities and pressures. Therefore, it would be necessary        l to depressurize into the Reactor Auxiliary Building. Because      l of RAB Ventilation System operating limitations, depressuri-      ,
zation through the RAB would require thirty-six to forty-eight    !
hours to complete. The possibility of depressurizing directly    f to atmosphere to reduce this depressurizatien time was evaluated. (

After reviewing the current Waterford 3 Technical Specificatiom                                                          i regarding gaseous radioactive effluents with the Licensing Department, it was concluded that if the containment atmosphere                                                          l s mpled prior to release was radioactive, the release could not be made directly to the atmosphere. It would have to be released through the plant stack via the RAB Normal Ventilation                                                          i System. However, if the atmosphere sampled did not contain any radioactivity, the pathway restrictions in the Technical Specifications did not apply as long as adequate precautions                                                            ;
were taken to identify changing conditions during the release (i.e., radioactivity in the release pathway) that would                                                                  I warrant termination of the release.
A safety evaluation was performed on the release pathway to examine the radiological consequences of an accidental release of radioactivity during ILRT depressurization. As a result of the safety evaluation, a portable radiation monitor (with                                                                l alarming capability) would be used to monitor the release                                                                f pathway for changing conditions that would warrant (i.e.,
greater than two times background) termination of the release.                                                          t The evaluation concluded that plant safety would not be decreased by utilizing this release pathway.                                                                            :
i l                                                      Prior to 'LRT depressurization, instructions were issued                                                                ,

On May 23, two separate sets of gas, iodine, and particulate samples were collected. These samples were analyzed as effluent release samples in accordance with Health Physics L              Department procedures. In addition, chemistry obtained and analyzed a sample for tritium in accordance with Chemistry Department procedures. All analysis results were below the                  ,
lower limits of detection. The air to be released was there-fore treated as a non-radioactive effluent and discharged directly to the atmosphere. Depressurization to the atmosphere began on May 23 at 09:00 and lasted until 21:39 the same day.
After completing depressurization, the continuous iodine and particulate samples collected by the temporary radiation                    j monitor from the depressurization pathway were analyzed. Low              i r
levels of I-131 and Co-58 were found in the samples with a                ,
calculated average concentration in the discharge stream of 1.5 E-11 uCi/cc I-131 and 3.2 E-13 uti/cc Co-58. The a posteriori lower limits of detection on the pre-release                  r samples ranged between 1.1 E-11 to 1.9 E-11 uCi/cc for I-131 and 3.2 E-12 to 6.8 E-12 uCi/cc for Co-58. Therefore, the activity detected after the release was on the order of or below the detection limits of the pre-release samples.

O Cause of the Release:
The root cause of radioactivity being release through an          l abnormal pathway was related to the fact that the concentrations of radioactivity in the release stream were at or below the lower limits of detection of the pre-release samples. Tech-        !
i nical Specification Table 4.11-2 states that the a priori          ;
lower limits of detection for the principle particulate gamma emitters should be 1 E-11 uCi/cc. The a priori limit for weekly I-131 samples should be 1 E-12 uCi/cc with footnote g allowing this limit to be increased by a factor of 10 for        4 daily samples. An evaluation of the a priori lower limit of detection for various radionuclides on each gamma spectroscopy    [
system indicate that the weekly limits can be satisfied with a minimum count time of 2000 seconds and a sample volume of 1 E+07 cc for the weekly samples. The minimwn sample volume        ;
required to meet the daily limit was calculated to be            !
8.0 E+05 cc. Based on the sample volumes and count times of      L the pre-release samples, these daily a priori limits were        ,
satisfied. Hovever, as sample volume increases the sensitivity of the analysis increases. The larger the sample volume, the    ;
better the sensitivity and subsequently the lower the limit of  -
detection. With respect to the continuous samples collected, the sample volume was almost two orders of magnitude larger than the pre-release sample volume and the analysis sensitivity  ,
i                                    increased accordingly. Since the level of activity detected l                                    in the continuous samples was near or below the lower limit of  l detection of the pre-release samples, the possibility of        I detecting activity at these levels would be only by statistical  ;
l chance.                                                          i l                                                                                                      i I

Consequences of the Releaset, Although the release of radioactivity occurred through an abnormal pathway, it ves monitored and adequate sampling was performed to assess the radiological impact of the release.
The radiological impact resulting from the release was evaluated in accordance with Offsite Dose Calculation Manual methodologies.
At no time vere any release limits specified in Technical Specifications 3.11.2.1 and 3.11.2.3 exceeded. The total amount of I-131 and Co-58 released were 4.4 and 0.094 uci, respectively. The instantaneous dose rate to a receptor at              I the site boundary was calculated to be 0.023 mrem /yr or 0.002 %      -
of the Technical Specification Limit. The total projected              l maximum organ dose resulting from this release was 0.0034 mrem
* or 0.023 % of the allowable annual limit (0.046 % of the allowable quarterly limit).

8.4 Report if Technical Specification Required Instrument Inoperability Technical Specification, Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO),
3.3.3.10 and 3.3.3.11 requires the reporting in the Semiannual' Radioactive Effluent Releast Report of why designated incperable instrumentation was not restored to operability within the time specified in the ACTION Statement. During the reporting period, there were four separate cases when instrumentation was not restored to opercbility within the time specified. These cases are described in the following sections.
 
====8.4.1 Monitor====
Waste Gas Holdup System Hydrogen and Oxygen Moni?. ors Period of Inoperability:    3/21/85 - 06/30/88 (At end of reporting period monitors were still innperable)
Time Required by T(chnical Specifications to Restore Operability:    30 days Cause of Inoperability:
Due to initial design problems excess amounts of moisture were allowed to leak into both the Beckman 02 and Delphi H2 and 02 analyzer systems. Repiacemant of the analyzers and modification of the sample system was implemented during this period.
While this was being done the system remained out of service.
W310526HP                                  17
 
Reason Operability N2t Restored Within Allotted Time:
Extensive hours were spent attempting to restore these analyzers to operable status. Several analyzer cells were replaced, the solenoid and regulator were repaired, and the sample pump was both repaired and replaced. After these e
ef' orts failed to return the monitor to service, a station modification was initiated to replace the analyzer cells with less moisture sensitive models and to completely redesign the sample line condensate drain system.                            ,
i 3
This modification entailed work in several areas of the plant and on four different systems. All existing piping and 91ectronics associated with the Waste Gas Holdup System lydrogen and Oxygen Monitors was essentially scrapped and ledesigned.
Work included re-routing all sample lines in the Laundry Room, modifying the existing drain header, and fabrication of a new
]                                                      drain header to tie into the Vent Gas Collection Header.        i t
ie-routing of the Gas Surge Header Sample line and fabrication  i of its drain was performed in Safeguarda Room B. On Gas Decay    l Tanr A a new separator and drain line on the Waste Gas Collec-  !
tion Discharge Header was added to the second low point.
f Actual work on the Gas Analyzer Panel consisted of (1) adding    l 12 new holenoid valves in the sample inlets; (2) modifying the  f panel to secommcJate the new exo-sensor units; (3) installing    f f
a new pump and its associated tubing; and (4) wiring of all      t I
j                                                      new and relocated components.                                    j
!                                                                                                                      f i
While testing the system, the Gas Decay Tank "C" sample line
(
was found to be crossed with the Gas Surge Tank sample line.
Due to greater pressure in the Gas Decay Tank than that of      i
,                                                      the Gas Surge Tank the sampling pump diaphragm was blown.        !

This cvent also identified other problems with the system        j
;                                                      which required correction, i

Design changes have been made to uncross the lines and install a pressure switch to prevent any subsequert overpressurization.
The pump was replaced and new wiring was installed. Additional moisture traps, pressure regulators, valves and pressure indicators have been installed, a
l                              A detailed test procedure was prepared and approved. Testing i                              of the system was completed in early December of 1986 and the system was placed "in-service". Operational checks were performed on the system after the plant returned to the operating mode following a refueling outage. The operational checks demonstrated that while the piping and sample tubing changes proved beneficial, the analyzers themselves proved unreliable due to inherent design problems. Therefore, the Waste Gas }{ydrogen and Oxygen Monitoring System could not be returned to operable status.
Based on the problems encountered with the analyzers and sample / analyzer rystem, a new sample / analyzer system has been designed and installed. The improved system was designed with emphasis on sample conditioning, use of proven analyzers for the application and simple design. Initial testing has j                              been completed. Initial operation began on June 29, 1988. As j                              soon as final testing is complete and operating procedures are in place the analyzer system will be returned to cervice, which should be within two months.
 
====8.4.2 Monitor====

Before the calibration could be accomplished a new                    l c=11bration procedure had to be written and approved in order to evaluate detector energy response, linearity, and response to actual gaseous sources. Once the procedure was approved                        i and the monitor installed and energized, the calibration was                      !

The primary calibration and functional testing of the monitor was completed on June 7, 198b 0 which time the monitor was declared operable and placed back in service.
8.5 Missed Effluent Samples On April 13, 1988, it was discovered that a monthly Technical Speci-fication (TS) sampling requirement was missed. TS Surveillance Requirement 4.11.2.1.2 requires a plant stack tritium sample to be taken and analyzed monthly. The surveillance was last performed on March 3, 1988      The tickler card reminding the Chemistry Technician to collect and analyze the tritium sampla had not been placed in the 31 day file. The tickler card remained in the April monthly file.
The root cause of this event was cognitive personnel error due to not filing the surveillance tickler card. This resulted fu the sample not being scheduled. A plant stack tritium sample was taken and analyzed on April 13, 1988. As a result, several Chemistry procedures are be.ing revised to ensure the tickler card file receives supervisory review and to provide clearer instructions for performing plant stack tritium sampling. The plant stack tritium sample is now scheduled by the Station Information Management System (SIMS) computer program.
A complete description of this event and the subsequent corrective actions was reported to the NRC in I.ER 88-007-00.

8.6 Corrections to Previous Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Reports While reviewing the effluent release data covering the period from July 1, 1986 through Dece.nber 31, 1986, a typographical error was found on page 28 of that report. The curies of Co-58 in spent resin solidified with cenient was incorrectly reported as 1.5E+00. The correct value should have been 1.5E+01 curies. The corrected data is included in Attachment 1 of this report.
