The CHANNELCALIBRATION shall encompass the entire channel including the sensor andalarm and/or trip functions, and shall include the CHANNEL FUNCTIONALTEST. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION may be performed by any series of sequen-tial, overlapping or total channel steps such that the entire channel iscalibrated.CHANNEL CHECK1.10 A CHANNEL CHECK shall be the qualitative assessment of channelbehavior during operation by observation. This determination shall include,where possible, comparison of the channel indication and/or status withother indications and/or status derived from independent instrumentationchannels measuring the same parameter.CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST1.11 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL TEST shall be:a. Analog channels -the injection of a simulated signal into thechannel as close to the sensor as practicable to verifyOPERABILITY including alarm and/or trip functions.b. Bistable channels -the injection of a simulated signal into thesensor to verify OPERABILITY including alarm and/or trip functions.SOURCE CHECK1.29 A SOURCE CHECK shall be the qualitative assessment of channel responsewhen the channel sensor is exposed to a radioactive source.PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM1.30 A PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM shall be the operating procedure andprocess parameters within which SOLIDIFICATION of radioactive wastes fromliquid systems is assured.SOLIDIFICATION1.31 SOLIDIFICATION shall be the conversion of radioactive wastes fromliquid systems to a homogeneous, monolithic, immobilized solid with definitevolume and shape, bounded by a stable surface of distinct outline on allsides (free-standing).I PWR-STS-I1-1 TABLE 1.2FREQUENCY NOTATIONNOTATION FREQUENCYS At least once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.D At least once per 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.W At least once per 7 days.M At least once per 31 days.Q At least once per 92 days.SA At least once per 184 days.R At least once per 18 months.S/U Prior to each reactor startup.P Within 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> prior to each release.N.A.

The concentration limit for noblegases is based upon the assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radio-isotope and its MPC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalentconcentration in water using the International Commission on RadiologicalProtection (ICRP) Publication 2.3/4.11.1.2 DOSEThis specification is provided to implement the requirements ofSections II.A, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 5a. The LimitingCondition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II.A ofAppendix I. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexi-bility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.Aof Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material inliquid effleunts will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable". Also,for fresh water sites with drtnking water supplies which can be potentiallyeffected by plant operations, there is reasonable assurance that theoperation of the facility will not result in radionuclide concentrationsin the finished drinking water that are in excess of the requirements of40 CFR 141. The Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements inSection III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of AppendixI be shown by calculatiohal procedures based on models and data suchthat the actual exposure of an Individual through appropriate pathwaysIs unlikely to be substantially underestimated.

The requirement that theappropriate portions of this system be used when specified provides assur-ance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents willbe kept "as low as is reasonably achievable". This specification imple-ments the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and the design objectives of Appendix Ito 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the use of appropriateportions of the liquid radwaste treatment system were specified as asuitable fraction of the guide set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I,10 CFR Part 50, for liquid effluents.3/4.11.1.4 LIQUID HOLDUP TANKSRestricting the quantity of radioactive material contained in thespecified tanks provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolledrelease of the tank's contents, the resulting dose or dose commitment toan individual in an unrestricted area will not exceed 0.5 rem.3/4.11.2 GASEOUS EFFLUENTS3/4.11.2.1 DOSEThis specification is provided to ensure that the dose at theunrestricted area boundary from gaseous effluents from all units on thesite will be within the annual dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20. Theannual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II. These limits provide reasonableassurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents willnot result in the exposure of an individual either within or outside the.unrestricted boundary, to annual average concentrations exceeding thelimits specified in Appendix B, Table II of 10 CFR Part 20 CIO CFRPart 20.106(b)l. For individuals who may at times be within theunrestricted boundary, the occupancy of the individual will be sufficientlylow to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factorabove that for the nearest unrestricted area. The specified releaserate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dosePWR-STS-IB 3/4 11-2 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTSBASESrates.:above.background to an individual at or beyond the unrestrictedboundary to < (500) mrem/ year to the total body or to < (3000) mrem/yearto the skin. These release rate limits also restrict, it all times, thecorresponding thyroid dose rate above background to an infant via thecow-milk-infant pathway to < 15Q0 mrem/year for the nearest cow to theplant.This specification applies to the release of gaseous effluents fromeach reactor at the site. For units with shared radwaste treatmentsystems, the gaseous effluents from the shared system are proportionedamong the units sharing that system.3/4.11.2.2 DOSE, NOBLE GASESThis specification is provided to implement the requirements ofSections II.B, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The LimitingCondition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II.Bof Appendix I. The ACTION statements provide the required operatingflexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth inSection IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactivematerial in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonablyachievable". The Surveillance Requirements implement the requirementsin Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides ofAppendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and datasuch that the actual exposure of an individual through appropriatepathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The equationsspecified in the Surveillance Requirements for calculating the doses dueto the actual release rates of radioactive noble gases in gaseous effluentswere developed from the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109,"Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of ReactorEffluents for the
Purpose
of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50,Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methodsfor Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dilspersl.on of Gaseous Effluentsin Routine Releases from Light-Water Cooled Reactors," Revtsion 1, July1977. The specified equations provide for determining the air doses atthe unrestricted area boundary based upon the historical average atmosphericconditions.3/4.11.2.3 DOSE, RADIOIODINES, RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL IN PARTICULATE FORMAND RADIONUCLIDES OTHER THAN NOBLE GASESThis specification is provided to Implement the requirements ofSections II.C, III.A and IV.A of Appenditx 1, 10 CFR Part 50. The LimitingPWR-STS-IB 3/4 11-3 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTSBASESCondition for Operation are the guides set forth in Section II.C ofAppendix I. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexi-bility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in SectionIV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive materialsin gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable".The Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in Section III.Aof Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown bycalculational procedures based on models and data such that the actualexposure of an individual through appropriate pathways is unlikely to besubstantially underestimated. The equations specified in the SurveillanceRequirements for calculating the doses due to the actual release ratesof the subject materials were also developed using the methodologyprovided in Regulatory Guide 1.10%, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Manfrom Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the
Purpose
of EvaluatingCompliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transportand Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water-Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. As with the equationsused in Specification 4.2.2.2.1, these equations also provide for determiningthe actual doses based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions.The release rate specifications for radioiodines, radioactive materialin particulate form and radionuclides other than noble gases are dependenton the existing radionuclide pathways to man, in the unrestricted area.The pathways which were examined in the development of these specificationswere: 12 individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, 21 depositionof radionuclides onto green leafy vegetation with subsequent consumptionby man, 3) deposition onto grassy areas where mtilk animals and meatproducing animals graze with consumption of the mtlk and meat by man,and 41 deposition on the ground with subsequent exposure of man.3/4.11.2.4 GASEOUS WASTE TREATMENTThe OPERABILITY of the gaseous radwaste treatment system ensures thatthe system will be available for use whenever gaseous effluents requiretreatment prior to release to the environment. The requirement that theappropriate portions of this system be used when specified provides reason-able assurance that the releases of radioactive, materials in liquideffluents will be kept "as low as ts reasonably achievable". This specifi-cation implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General DesignCriterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, and the design objectivesof Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the useof appropriate portions of the gaseous radwaste treatment system werespecified as a suttable fraction of the guide set forth in Sections II.Band II.C of Appendix I, l0 CFR Part 5Q, for gaseous effluents.PWR-STS-IB 3/4 11 -4 K>RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTSBASES3/4.11.2.5 EXPLOSIVE GAS MIXTUREThis specification is provided to ensure that the concentration ofpotentially explosive gas mixtures contained in the waste gas holdupsystem is maintained below the flammability limits of hydrogen and oxygen.(Automatic control features are included in the system to prevent thehydrogen and oxygen concentrations from reaching these flammability limits.These automatic control features include isolation of the source ofhydrogen and/or oxygen, automatic diversion to recombiners, or injectionof dilutants to reduce the concentration below the flammability limits.)Maintaining the concentration of hydrogen and oxygen below their flam-mability limits provides assurance that the releases of radioactivematerials will be controlled in conformance with the requirements ofGeneral Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.3/4.11.2.6 GAS STORAGE TANKSRestricting the quantity of radioactivity contained in each gasstorage tank provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolledrelease of the tanks contents, the resulting total body exposure to anindividual at the nearest exclusion area boundary will not exceed 0.5 rem.This is consistent with Standard Review Plan 15.7.1, "Waste Gas SystemFailure".3/4.11.3 SOLID RADIOACTIVE WASTEThe OPERABILITY of the solid radwaste system ensures that the systemwill be available for use whenever solid radwastes require processing andpackaging prior to being shipped offsite. This specification implementsthe requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a and General Design Criteria 60 ofAppendix A to 10 CFR Part 50. The process parameters included in establish-ing the PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM may include, but are not limited to wastetype, waste pH, waste/lIquid/solIdification agent/catalyst ratios, wasteoil content, waste principal chemical constituents, mixing and curingtimes.PWR-STS-IB 3/4 11-5 3/4.12 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORINGBASES3/4.12.1 MONITORING PROGRAMThe radiological monitoring program required by this specificationprovides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials inthose exposure pathways and for those radionuclides, which lead to thehighest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting fromthe station operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements theradiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measur-able concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation arenot higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements andmodeling of the environmental exposure pathways. The initially specifiedmonitoring program will be effective for at least the first three yearsof commercial operation. Following this period, program changes may beinitiated based on operational experience.The detection capabilities required by Table 4.12-1 are state-of-the-art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories.The specified lower limits of detection for 1-131 in water, milk and otherfood products correspond to approximately one-quarter of the Appendix Ito 10 CFR Part 50 design objective dose-equivalent of 15 mrem/year foratmospheric releases and 10 mrem/year for liquid releases to the mostsensitive organ and individual. They are based on the assumptions givenin Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man fromRoutine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the
