II. Exelon Response The following response describes our actions to protect and inform the public, cease the release of tritium to groundwater, prevent future release of tritium to the groundwater, and our plans to address the elevated levels of tritium in the existing groundwater. In order to further assist the Illinois EPA in an understanding of site conditions, We are including in Attachment 1 a summary of key investigative data collected to date at the site. These data summaries are cohsidered preliminary, as we are collecting additional data and.continuing our evaluations, and.include:
- 1. A base map of monitoring locations and key site features.
- 2. Groundwater level contour maps of the shallow and deep zones of the upper aquifer.
- 3. Estimated tritium concentrations presented in contour maps of the shallow and.
deep 'zones.
- 4. A hydrogeologic cross-section.
- 5. A table summarizing permanent and temporary well monitoring specifications.
- 6. A table summarizing sample results for tritium analyses from wells in the site area; and
- 7. A table summarizing tritium results from samples collected at private wells.
Protection-and Notification of the Public Exelon's first priority In response to this issue is the protection of the public. When we
'determined in'late November 2005 that tritium in groundwater had likely migrated off the Braidwood Station property, we notified potentially affected residents. Door-to-door initial notifications were made to inform them of the status of our investigation, present them a fact sheet from the U. S. EPA regarding tritium, offer to sample their private wells for the presence of tritium, and respond to their questions and concerns. The results of the private well sample analyses, conducted by an independent laboratory, were provided to the residents. On December 12, 2005, Exelon conducted a meeting with the potentially affected local residents to update them on the status of our ongoing investigation, explain future actions and address their questions ahd concerns. In addition, we have met individually with a number of residents to address specific 2
concerns. A second round of door-to-door updates was conducted with the potentially affected residents on December 29, 2005, during which we provided those residents a copy of our December 29, 2005 news release and Invited them to another update meeting which was held on January 26, 2006.
In addition to sampling private. wells, Exelon obtained permission from potentially affected residents to drill temporary wells on their property and to sample water from ponds on their property to determine the migration of the tritium in groundwater.
Exelon's plume characterization team continued sampling, analyzing and notifying adjoining land owners until the leading edge of the tritium was identified. Exelon has sampled over 31 private wells, drilled and sampled over 150 monitoring wells on and off the property, and sampled nearby surface water ponds offsite to laterally and vertically identify the distribution of tritium in the groundwater.
In order to identify potential users of groundwater in the down-gradient direction of flow (which is to the north) from the blowdown pipeline, Exelon initiated a comprehensive well inventory and well records search. This search is being conducted through the Illinois State Water Survey and includes groundwater users that can be identified within a one mile'radius of the blowdown pipeline. The location of the wells, their use, depth and construction are being compiled for future evaluations. This Well inventory, along with previously identified well users (private residences where wells have already been sampled), will form the basis of Exelon's notification list. This list will identify additional private, as well as public, water supply users that would be notified if it is determined there is a potential for impact to their water supply wells.
Cessation of Release of -Tritium to Groundwater Liquid radioactive effluent releases into the Braidwood Station circulating water blowdown line were suspended on November 23,-2005. This action was taken until additional information Could be collected and testing conducted to ensure the integrity of the pipeline at all locations. Braidwood Station has not processed any liquid radioactive effluents through the circulating water blowdown pipeline since NoVember.23, 2005.
As a result of suspending liquid radioactive effluent releases into the circulating water blowdown pipeline, temporary 20,000 gallon water storage tanks are being used to store liquid radioactive effluents onsite until new radioactive waste processing equipment is made operational.
An acoustical leak detection test was completed on January 6, 2006 to verify the integrity of the circulating water blowdown pipeline.. A tethered acoustical sensor head inserted into the pipe was carried by the circulating water blowdown flow providing leak detection as it traversed along the pipeline length. The sensitivity of the sensor was determined by Exelon Engineering to detect a one gallon per minute leak under normal operating blowdown line pressure. One anomaly was identified at the end of the pipeline near exposedthe Kankakee River. This area was excavated and a visual inspection of the pipe determined there was no leak.
Although there have been no liquid radioactive effluent releases through the circulating water blowdown pipeline since November 23, 2005, because the vacuum breaker valves installed along the length of the blowdown pipeline have been a source of leaks and 3
spills, a daily visual inspection of the blowdown pipeline is being conducted to verify no gross leakage.
In addition, Exelon has completed the following activities.
" Installation and sampling of over 30 shallow (approximately 15 ft. deep) and over 20 deep (approximately 25 ft. deep) monitoring points adjacent to the blowdown pipeline.
- Laboratory analyses of over 60 samples for tritium as a direct indicator of leakage from the blowdown pipeline and 45 samples for chloride and sodium which have been established as an indicator of the Braidwood Station cooling lake water flowing in the blowdown pipeline.
" Measurement of water levels along the blowdowh pipeline and comparison with the regional, shallow groundwater table to determine if significant leaks are creating a mounding effect on the water table.
o Comparison of the three dimensional distribution of tritium in the groundwater to the plumes located south of Smiley Road to determine if it correlates with an on-going, or active release from the blowdown pipeline.
The above activities have relied upon groundwater data collected to date near and down-gradient of the blowdown pipeline. None of the data have indicated to Exelon and to its hydrogeologic experts that tritium measured in the groundwater on and off property has come from an active leak in the circulating water blowdown pipeline or vacuum breakers.
Prevention of Future Release of Tritium to Groundwater Exelon is taking several actions, as described below, to prevent future releases of.tritium into the groundwater. These include a potential design change involving discharge of liquid effluent into an additional circulating water blowdown pipeline* a project to significantly reduce the overall liquid discharge of tritium from. Braidwood. Station, and, in the event of a future spill, procedure changes to create a more effective response to minimize theimpact to the environment.
Liquid effluents will not be introduced into the Current circulating water blowdown pipeline unless leakage from this pipeline and vacuum breaker valves can be prevented With a high level of confidence. Exelon is currently exploring options for an -alternate pipeline for discharge of liquid radioactive effluents that would maintain the current discharge point, but eliminate concerns with the existing circulating water blowdown pipeline and vacuum breaker valves.
Additionally, a project is underway at Braidwood Station to minimize liquid radioactive effluent releases Into the circulating water blowdown pipeline in the future with the installation of new water processing equipment in the radioactive waste system. These improvements include state-of-the-art technologies in reverse osmosis and an additional unit to recycle existing liquid radioactive waste inventory into water that meets our quality requirements for the reactor coolant system. Also, Braidwood Station intends to install a means of converting liquid effluents to gaseous effluents.

Exelon is also looking into methods of reducing the production of tritium through various changes in reactor core configuration and primary water chemistry. These include potential changes in the reactor fuel rod design, "burnable poisons" in the reactor core, and fuel cycle length. Exelon is also partnering with its vendors to explore possible new technologies in tritium separation.
Finally, in the event of a future spill, the following actions are being taken to improve Exelon's response .and minimize the impact to the environment.
- 1. A corporate environmental manager was assigned the action to institutionalize Exelon's tritium environmental spill response.knowledge. The manager will utilize input from the various functional areas to develop an integrated set of procedures to mitigate and remediate spills with the potential to contain radioactive isotopes. Appropriate personnel will be trained on these procedures.
A review of the effectiveness of the procedure development and training will be conducted at a suitable interval following completion.
- 2. The knowledge of Braidwood Station personnel regarding environmental regulations and reporting requirements will be.enhanced with additional training.
Training programs for personnel in the Operations, Chemistry/Environmental, and Radiation Protection Departments will be analyzed to determine additional knowledge requirements to address low level radioactivity spill reporting and personnel will be trained and tested onthe changes. General training for all employees will be reviewed to identify any needed changes.
- 3. Exelon's applicable procedures/programs will be reviewed to ensure the Illinois regulations governing radioactive contamination of groundwater are correctly reflected and Implemented In those documents.
Plans to Address Elevated Levels of Tritium in Existing Groundwater Exelon proposes to address the elevated levels of tritium in existing groundwater through the Illinois EPA's Site Rernediation Program (SRP). Participation in the SRP will include the following.
- 1. Conduct of a focused site investigation to characterize the extent of contamination. The investigation will focus on tritium. Since November 2005, Exelon has conducted extensivesampling as described above, and is currently evaluating the results to determine if additional sampling is necessary. A well survey, as described above, consistent with SRP rules and Illinois EPA policy, will also be included. Prior to submitting the final Site Investigation Report, Exelon will contact the Illinois EPA SRP staff to obtain input on any additional needs. The Site Investigation Report will be submitted as soon as possible, but no iater than March 24, 2006.
- 2. Development of remedial objectives.. As part of this step, Exelon will not only evaluate compliance with Part 620.410(e)(3), but risk to the public as well.
Work on developing a Remedial Objectives Report (ROR) will-commence as soon as possible, and will be submitted no later than 30 days after Illinois EPA approval of the Site Investigation Report.
5
- 3. Preparation of a Remedial Action Plan. Based on the results of the Site Investigation and the Remedial Objectives Report, a Remedial Action Plan (RAP) will.be prepared and submitted. Options are currently being evaluated which include pumping areas of high concentration and returning these waters to the circulating water system. The RAP will include a schedule for all .activities from startup to completion, and also provide for quarterly reports.
This plan will be submitted within 30 days of approval of the Remedial Objectives Report.
- 4. Submission of a Remedial Action Completion Report (RACR). Once the RAP is approved, the final remedial design will commence within 30 days and the final RACR will be submitted within 30 days of completion.
The site has not yet been precisely identified, but generally is shown as the area on figures 4 and 5. *Areas separate from this site, to the east along the routing of the blowdown pipeline, are currently being investigated.
As part of the overall strategy to address this issue, a community relations plan is being implemented. The plan builds on Braidwood Station's existing community outreach program that has been used, as described above in this response, to'conduct multiple communications to keep the-public informed.. Exelon intends to continue this effort.
The community relations plan includes development of a website with access to a fact sheet on the Braidwood tritium issue, a telephone hotline for interested members of the public to acquire information on the issue, and an upcoming community information night. The actions in our community relations plan-may be adjusted overtime, as.the circumstances of this issue evolve. Our current community relations action plan will be submitted by March 1, 2006.
