| event text = This report is being made pursuant to 10CFR50.72(b)(2)(xi), 4-hour Non-Emergency Report due to a press release being issued by Callaway Plant reporting that its monitoring program recently detected small amounts of tritium and other radionuclides along the plant discharge pipeline.  The concentrations of radioactive material in water sampled from manholes on the discharge line range from less than 1% to about 20% of the NRC effluent release concentration limits.  This radioactive material is contained on plant owned property.

All known wells in the vicinity of the plant, as well as drinking water at the plant and in the nearby town of Portland, have been tested and shown to have no detectable radionuclides above background.  Further testing of drinking water supplies and in areas around the discharge line is taking place to assure that no migration of the contaminated water occurs.  Sampling results of the monitoring program have been provided to the NRC and the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and a plan to remediate the contaminated manholes will be coordinated with the DNR.
