I. INTRODUCTION Procedure 12 PMP 6010 OSD.001, "Offsite Dose Calculation Manual," Section 4.8.1 and Technical Specification, Appendix B, Part 2, Section 5.4.1 require that an annual report, which details the results and findings of ongoing environmental radiological and non-radiological surveillance programs, be submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. This report services to fulfill these requirements and represents the Annual Environmental operating Report for Units 1 and 2 of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant for the operating period from January 1 through December 31, 1996.
During 1996, based on the monthly operating repcrts for Unit 1 and Unit 2, the annual gross electrical generation, average unit service factors, and capacity factors were:
            ~parameter                                                  Unit  2 Gross  Electrical, Generation (MWH)            8,687,540          8,298,030 Unit Service Factor (4)                              97.6                87.0 Unit Capacity Factor - MDC* Net (%)                  95.3                86.2
* Maximum Dependable Capacity II. HANGES TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL TE HNICAL        PECIFICATIONS There were no environmental Technical        Specification  changes  in  1996.
III. NON-RADIOLOGICAL ENVIR NMENTAL        PERATING REPORT A.      Plant Design and Operation During 1996, no instances of noncompliance with the Environmental Protection Plan occurred, nor were there any changes in station design, operations,        tests, or exp riments which involved a potentially significant unreviewed environmental issue.
There was one environmental screening during the reporting period.
A copy of this screening is located in Appendix II of this report.
It was concluded that no environmental evaluations were required and that n~ unreviewed environmental questions existed.
B. Non-Routine Reports A summary  of the  1996  non-routine events is located in Appendix I of this report.      No  long-term, adverse environmental effects were noted.
Environmental Protection Plan There    were    no  instances    of  Environmental    Protection    Plan noncompliance in 1996.
D. Potentially Significant Unreviewed Environmental Issues There were no changes in station design, operations, tests or experiments which involved a potentially significant unreviewed environmental issue.
There was one environmental screening during the reporting period.
A copy of this screening is located in Appendix        II of this report.
The screening determined that there were no unreviewed environmental
 
0 ques" ions E. Environmental Monitoring - Herbicide Application Technical Specifications Appendix B, Part 2, section 5.4.1, states summaries    and analyses  'f that the Annual Environmental Operating Report ;hall include:
the results of the environmental protection activities required by section 4.2 of this Environmental Protection Plan for the report period, including a comparison with preoperational studies, operational controls (as appropriate), and previous non-radiological environmental monitoring reports, and an assessment of the observed impacts of the plant operation on the environment.
Herbicide applications are the activities monitored in accordance with section 4.2. There were no preoperational herbicide studies to which comparisons could be made. Herbicide applications are managed by plant procedure 12 THP 2160 HER.001.
A summary of the 1996 herbicide applications is contained in Appendix III of this report. Based on observations, there were,no negative impacts or evidence of trends toward irreversible change to the environment as a result of the herbicide applications. Based on our review of application records and field observations, the applications conformed with EPA and State requirements for the approved use of herbicides.
F. Mollusc Biofouling Monitoring Program Macrofouler monitoring and control activities during 1996 are discussed in Appendix IV of this report.        Whole water sampling studies showed no adverse environmental impact.
G. Special Reports There were no special reports    identified during 1996.
IV. RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT The  Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program annual report is located in  Appendix VI of  this report.
The objectives of the operational radiological environmental monitoring program are:
Identify and measure radiation and radioactivity in the plant environs    for the calculation of potential dose to the population.
Verify the effectiveness of in-plant measures used for controlling the release of radioactive material.
Provide reasonable assurance that the predicted doses, based on radiological effluent data, have not been substantially underestimated and are consistent with applicable standards.
Comply  with regulatory requirements and Station Technical Specifications .and provide records to document compliance.
Changes to the REMP There were no identified changes to the REMP during 1996.
 
There were no  identified  changes  to the REMP during 1996.
B.      Radiological Impact of Donald C. Cook      Nuclear Plant Operations This report summarizes the collection and analysis of various environmental    sample    media    in 1996 for the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant.
The various analyses of most sample media suggest that there was no discernable impact of the nuclear plant on the environment. The analysis of air particulate filters, charcoal cartridges, direct radiation by thermoluminescent dosimeters, fish, water, mild and sediments from Lake Michigan, drinking water, and food products, either did not detect any radioactivity or measured only naturally occurring radionuclides at normal background levels.
The only radionuclide which appears attributable to the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant operation is tritium, which was measured at low levels in onsite wells. However, the associated groundwater does not provide a direct dose pathway to man.
C. Land Use Census The Land Use Census    is performed to ensure that significant changes in the immediate vicinity of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant are identified. Any identified changes are evaluated to determine whether a modification must be made to the REMP or other related programs. Two deletions of milk farms were identified during the 1996 Land Use Census.      A further discussion of the Land Use Census can be found in Appendix VI of this report.
D.      Solid, Liquid, and    Gaseous    Radioactive Waste Treatment Systems There were no changes in the solid, liquid, or gaseous radioactive waste treatment systems during 1996.
CONCLUSION Based upon the      results of the radiological environmental monitoring program and the      radioactive effluent release reports for the 1996 reporting year, it can be concluded that there were no adverso. affects to the environment or to the general public due to the operation of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant.

APPENDIX  I NON-ROUTINE REPORTS 1996
 
1996 Non-Routine Events February 26, 1996 - Outfall OOD Continuous pH monitoring was interrupted. The interruption was caused by fouling problems associated with the glass pH electrode.
March 10,  1996  -  Outfall OOD  continuous  pH monitoring was  interrupted. The interruption    was  caused  by  an  electronic  failure    of pH monitoring instrumentation.
May 10, 1996  - An estimated 1 gallon of oil was washed down the roof drains to the storm water system as a result of oil vapor accumulating on the roof from the Unit 2 hydrogen seal oil vapor extractors (an estimated 5 gallon accumulation) .
August 19, 1996 - Approximately 2 gallons of lube oil leaked from a damaged oil res rvoir for a traveling water screen to the Unit 1 forebay.

Cook Nuclear Plant, Unit Number 2 Facility Operating License; for amendment of the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant, Unit 2 Technical Specifications; and for related changes to the Unit 1 Technical Specitications proposed primarily to support operation of Cook Nuclear Piant Unit 2 at an increased core Rated Thermal Power of 3588 MWt.
In anticipation of the proposed Unit 2 uprato, the March 1994 renewal submittal for the National Pollution DIscharge Elimination Systems (NPOES) Permit included a request for Increasing the thermal effluent discharge limit. The following excerpt provides            vi es th escopeo f thechangeandthe th h justification.
                                                                                                                                    'The current thermal effluent limit for the circulating water syste            sem d'isc arging to Lake ichlgan is 15.5 x 10'TU/hr. This ls calculated from measurements taken at Outhlls 001 and 002 for Units 1 and 2, respectively. At this limit, the units are operating with calculated un'aximum temperature differentials of 22.3 and 18.3 degrees F f U 'ts Thee units have been required to reduce load from 100M during the hottest summer months                          'o mainta the thermal dischat~Je within limits.

Fnvironmental Evaluation U-2 Uprate Per AEP: NRC: 1223 On Juno 28, 1995, the Cook Nu lear Plant received a new NPDES Permit which included permission to inc."ase Heat Addition Discharge Limitation to 16.8 x 10'TU/hr with the following "As a condition of this permit, the permittee shall conduct a thermal plume study for outfal!s 001 and 002. The study shall bo conducted seasonally, during spring, summer and fall. Each seasonal study shalllndude a determination of the current velocity and volume which serves to dilute the discharge In Lake Michigan, a determination of the stratification of the effluent, if any in Lake Michigan, predominant wind direction and velocity at the time of the study, and detailed mapping of the plume for each study.
Within three (3) months of the effective date of this permit, a plan for conducting the study shall be submitted to the Plainwell District Supervisor of the Surface Water Quality Division for approval. The study shall be implemented in accordance with the approved plan, which will include information regarding Initiation of the study. If the permittee desires to make any substantial changes ln tke approved plan, such proposed changes shall be submitted to and bo approved by the Plainwell District Supeiv',sor prior to implementation. The result of this study'hall be submitted to the Plainwell District Supervisor vrithin four (4) months of the completion of the study."
A plan for conducting the study was submitted on September 25, 1995 to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) (now known as the MichIgan Department of Environmental Quality or MDEQ) District Supervisor of tlie Surface Water Quality Division (SWQD) (Attachment A). Approval from the MDEQ SWQD was received on November 6, 1995 (Attachment 8).
Schedules have been established to meet the other items of Special Condition 9.
current NPDES Permit:
                "The Michigan Deoartment of Natural Resour es 's cons!" dng the necessity oof incorpora incorporatirg ing h'emperature limitations in this permit to assure that the requlroments of Rui  82 (1)  f th Miic igan Water Quality Standards are met. Thorefore, when consideration of this issue has been completed, the Department may modify this permit in. accordance with Part II.B.4 to add appropriate temperature limitations or requirements."
view Action Ta The Final Environmental Statement (FES), National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit and Appendix S of Technical Specifications were reviewed In support of this screening to determine the potential environmental impact associated with this proposed uprate.
in accordance with 661000-LTG-2200-1, Revision 0 Preparation and Distribution of Environmental Evaluations," an Environmental Check Skeet was completed. The conclusions of this check skeet follow.

The area of the thermal plume is also expected to increase from 593 to 700 acres, an increase of about 18'A. We believe that th" impact of this change will have a negligible effect on the environment end,does not represent a significant increaso in any adverse Impact discussed ln the FES. On the basis of the statement 7, in the summary and conclusions portion of the FES, all requirements set forth in the FES called forth by the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) such as License Conditions has been met and reviewed and approved by the Michigan Department Natural Resources and the United States Environmental Protection Agonc . A h p lume  stu as required per NPDES permit is scheduled once the uprate has occurred.

: 2. Is the he proposed ro o                                                ua e in thee Final activity a matter not previously evaluated            ina E nvironmental No, The      FES discusses thermal effluent-discharge and the Unit 2 uprate represents a change to the NPDES effluent limits as discussod In question 3 and 4, The proposed activity was not evaluated at ihe heat discharge levels that were evaluated in the original FES. However, tho FES did evaluate thermal effluent discharge. Current modeling studies indicated that the calculated mixing zone vnli expand, yot this is not expected to be a significant deviation from the original study and does not indicate an adverse environmental impact previously evaluatod in the FES. This activity and associated effect have been proviously evaluated i>> tiio FES and are all potential adverse effects wore addressed via the NPDES Permit approval process.
:,d J. Jude from the Center for Great Lakos and Aauatic Sciences        for th U    'iy Ic ~, was contracted to perform an inves@ation of changes that might occur due to the heat Increase and how those changes might Impact the current Lako Mich'n fauna in the vicinity of the pl'ant (Attachment D). The review determined that the requested heat input and increased iherma> pluine size will have e neg I igi'bl o impact on int ri of thee integrity o the Lake Michigan ecosystem in this area of the lake. In add'tl    i on,t is h'a po      u e ying studies  show  tho size andincreased temperatures expected within the plume will have no discernible adverse environmental imp  mpa ct on th e wi'd o array of is es, zooplankton, and benthic organlsrns that are common , rare,rare en d angered,d, or uncommon in the vicinity of the Cook Plant.

: 3. Will the proposed activity result In          a significant change in constituent or quantity of effluent' No          There is no significant change in constituent of effluent. The quantity of the effluen will only change in tho amount of heat being discharged. This change is from 15.5 to 168 x10 'TU/hr. Heat is different from chemical pollutants in that it willnot x10'TU/hr interfere vrith the designated uses in the receiving stream, nor will it impact tho public health or environment. The additional heat to be rojocted to Lake Michigan is not expocted to result in a significant change in the quality of effluent and has been reviewed and approved and permitted by the MDNR.
: 4. Will the propcsed activity result in a significant chango in aiithorized power level?
Yes        The change to Rated Thermal Power l'rom 3411 to 358& by deflnition reflects a change in authorized Power level. Impacts resulting from this change are discussed in the
                            'esponse to questfon 3 and will be addressed In AEP:NRC:1223 Technical Specification:
amendment proposal to the USNRC.
: 5. Will a previously undisturbed area be impacted by this activity?
No          The thermal "fume size is expected to Increase, although this increase ls not expected to impact previously undiisturbed areas in Lake Mlchlgan. The thermal plume study that vill bo performed as required in the NP DES permit vrilf document wheth er there will bo a sfgnificant environmental effect as a result of tho uorate.
: 6. Will initiation or implementation of tlie proposed activity require modification to existing permits?
No          In accordance is% tho NPDES      Permit No. MI0005827 for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant PART II A2. Change of Conditions, a new application was submitted to the Chlof f tho Permit Section of tho Surface Water Quality Division to increase the he."'ejected to Lak~ """.higan from 15.5 x 10'TU/hr to 16.8 x 10'TU/hr. Also submined to the Michigan Department of N"tural Resources per Part 4 of the general rules of tho h4'chigon Water Resource Commission (Water Quality Standards) was a Demonstration of Acceptability of Increase Heat Additfon proposed in accordance to, Rule 98 (Attachment C).
            ~C~Ision Based on this review of tho proposed uprate of Cook Nuclear Plant Unit 2 from 3411 MWt to 3588 th'n MWt, lt ls concluded that an unreviowed environmental question does exist. As such, fnformalion concerning the change will be submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in accordance vrith procedure 661-LTG-220041 'Preparation and Distribution of Envlronmontal Evaluations.
 
0 Page 5 Environmental Evaluation U-2 Uprate Per AEP: NRC: 1223 lt should be noted that 4".e determination that an unreviewed environmental question existed was an expected result of this evaluation. The purpose of this evaluation was to support the proposed Technical Specification Amendment submittal package. From a strictly environmental perspective, the proposed uprate is not consdored to have a significant adverse impact on the environment as discussed ln tho FES. Finally, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources has approved the proposed increase In the thermal effluent limit.
Based on a review of the FES, Appendix B Technical Specifications, the current NP DES Permit for the Cook Nuclear Plant, and 10 CFR 51 requirements no environmental assessment (EA) or environmental impact statement (EIS) is required. EAs or EISs are not required for any action included in the list of categorical exclusions'et forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c). Specifically, 10 CFR 5'.22(c)(a), provides that an EA is not required;or the issuance of an amendment provided that:
Qi    the amondment involves no significant hazards consideration, there is no significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite, and (iu)  there is no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
Plant radiation protection features are designed to limit the radiation exposure to plant personnel and the genera) public to 10 CFR 20 limits under normal conditions. Nlhile certain isotopes are present in greater concentration ln the fuol gap due to the uprated power levol, tho actual increases in occupational dose are expected to bo minimal. The fuel has been designed to operate at the higher p'urer level without any damage, which would negate any increases In radioactivity trapped within an intact fuel rod. Also, our technical specifications limitthe concentration of radioactivity viithin the reactor coolant system (see Technical Specification 3.4.8),
Nevertheless, acddent offsito doses have been recalcu;ated based on the uprated source term and other analysis assumptions used in the Uprating Program. In some cases, the resulting thyroid offsite dose consequence's increase slightly above the values presently in the UFSAR.. The new calculated whole bc'y doses either romain the same as the UFSAR vaiuos or decrease ~or both types ofcalculations, tne changes in tho offsite radiation dose for each accident are not significant and are within the acceptance criteria as defined in 10 CFR 100.
Since systems and procedures controlling normal radioactive releases are based on limiting plant ffluents to a small fraction of regulatory limits, the proposed uprating of Unit 2 will not exceed 10 CFR 20 or 10 C  CF R100 limits. Basod on this information, there wIII bo no significant increase in the types or amounts of effluerits that may be released offsite and no significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
AEPNO believes that the provisions of 10 CFR 51.22(c}(e} are applicable to this power increase.
For reasons descnbedin the submittal, AEPNO believes the three criteria of 10 CFR 5122(c)(9) are satisfied. Thereforo, this Technical Specification amendment should be considered under the "categorical exclusions" provision of 10 CFR 5122(c)(9).

This submittal should assist the NRC in making a finding of no significant impact" in accordanco with 10 CFR 51.32.

0 APPENDIX III HERBICIDE APPLICATION REPORT 1996
 
ANKRlC'AN KLKCfRIC PQWfR Date    March 26, 1997 subject  1996 Herbicide Spray Report - Cook Nuclear Plant W(
From    E. C. Mallen To      J. P. Carlson The following herbicides were applied on Cook Nuclear Plant property during 1996.
Round-up Pro            .Preen Oust                    . Weed-B-Gon From July 24-29, 1996, a mixture of Round-up Pro and Oust was used for total plant control in the switch yards, railroad right-of-way, around buildings, parking lots, the sewage and absorption ponds, and within the plant's protected area. The application was performed by DeAngelo Brothers, a licensed herbicide applicator on contract to the AEP Western Division.
On September 3, 1996, the mortality of this herbicide application was assessed at 80-90%. The areas around the Oil Building and the PM&IS Steel Yard were assessed at 15% effective. The fence opening between the 34SKV and 765 KV yards indicated no application had occurred in this area. The effect on small  ((3')  saplings was minimal and these are quite numerous in the 76SKV yard. The protected area had a very high mortality, with only a few plants noted in the microwave zone.
On August 8, 9, and 22, 1996 Preen was used for weed control in planting beds around the North Guardhouse entrance, Training Building, and Visitor's Parking Lot. The herbicide was applied by a licensed applicator from the Maintenance ANR Buildings &
Grounds Crew. The herbicide was 80-90% effective and controlled weeds in the planting beds cutting back on weeding time.
On July 18, 26, 31 and August 1, 27, 28, and 29, 1996 Weed-B-Gon was used for weed control on the lawns around the plant site..lie herbicide was applied by a licensed applicator from the Maintenance ANR Buildings & Grounds Crew. The herbicide was 20-30% effective in controlling weeds in the Plant's lawns. The reason for this low efficacy was that the herbicide was applied in summer as opposed to early spring.
In summary,      based upon our review of the application records, manufacturer specifications, material safety data sheets (MSDSs) and observations of the treated areas, the herbicides were applied according to the manufacturer's labeled instructions and according to Federal and State requirements. A certified applicator was used as required.  ~
No signs of over spray or spillage were observed or noted. No adverse environmental effects occurred.

Zebra mussels which slough from thee in                                    a k e pipe ines continue to present a challen gee too thee screenwash and traveling screen system, service water um strainers, plant condensers, and the miscellaneous sea                          sealining an    co ing water system. The and coo is workin  I g a gg ressivel      ive y on design changes to alleviate these zebra mussel related 1'lant ERADICATION AND CONTROL MEASURES The          1996 control strategy                    consisted of the use of continuous and intermittent chlorination of the service water, miscellaneous sealing and cooling water, and circulating water systems, and mechanical cleaning. Plant design changes to mitigate zebra mussel related problems 'const'tuted a lar                            argee portion of zebra mussel cont,rol efforts in 1996.
MECHANICAL CLEANING Mechanical cleaning of the Unit 2 intake forebay and Uni ba Ys was peerform        ormed by divers during the Unit 2 refueling outage in 1996.
i nit 2 essent al service water pump The Unit 2 main condenser inlet t'~nnel was inspected and cleaned during the Unit 2 retueling outage.              Cleaning and flushing of small bore piping and strainers in the service water systems and low volume water systems was continued in 1996.
All        three intake cribs were cleaned in the fall of 1996 to minimize the impact of the intakes on diving ducks. Intake crib cleaning has been an effective means to mitigate duck entrainment into the plant.
MOLLUSCZCZDE TREATMENT RESULTS There were no              proprietary molluscicide treatments in                  1996.
CHLORINATION TREATMENT RESULTS A    vendor su pp lied ch    'orination                    system was again used to continuously c hl orina service water and miscellaneousus sealing and cooling water systems, and intermitt en tly e the c orinate the circulatin g water s y s tern.                          Continuous chlorination of the service water sys ems an the misceilaneous sealing and cooling water system a t a t arget fee d rate of 0.3 to 0.6                m end-of--o -p ipee residua', was effective in controlling the settl emen t o f ze ra mussels              in these    systems.'p Corrosion coupon monitorin studies ha                            have begun t", indicate corrosion of yellow metals mi s. yr.) and mild steel (8.6 mils./                  ./y r..) in the service water systems.

circulating water    pumps. This operation presents a challenge to the traveling screens and screenwash  system  in their ability to 'handle the influx of zebra mussels sloughing off from the intake tunnels. Any" carryover that occurs, must be handled by the service water pump strainers or is impinged on the condenser tube sheets.              The continuous operation of the traveling screens contributed to a large diver maintenance effort in 1996.
DESIGN CHANGES Traveling Screens Modifications of the traveling screen spraywash sy tern begun in 1995 from a single to a dual spray header with improved nozzle design was completed in 1996 under PM-873. The dual spray header return piping was routed to the traveling screen trash trough to facilitate flushing of the spray headers and nozzles. In addition to the spray header and spray nozzle changes,        the screen panels on traveling screen 2-OME-43-7          were replaced with a flatter stainless steel wire mesh. The improved design effectively removed the debris from the traveling screens.        The old galvanized dipped screen panels are systematically being replaced on the remaining traveling screen units by the stainless steel panels as the old panels wear out. A component evaluation, CE-95-0345, performed on the north screenwash pump strainer in August of 1996, reduced the strainer mesh size from 1/8" to 5/64" to prevent the traveling screenwash nozzles from plugging.
Miscellaneous Sealing    &  Cooling Water Pump Strainer and Filter Upgrade In the fall of 1996, the 2" miscellaneous sealing a cooling water pump strainers were replaced with 4" Hayward self cleaning strainers.            In addition, two Ontario Industries 40 micron filters were installed to run in parallel. The new filters Hydro      will become operational in 1997 when the filter backwash routing can be changed from the screenwash pump stainer backwash lines to the 30" turbine room sump overflow line to the intake forebay.
Chemical  Injection Pipeline A  design has been issued under DCP-108 for installation of two chemical injection pipeline systems to be run through the center intake tunnel and branching at the center intake crib to the north and south intake cribs.            This design is scheduled'o be installed in May 1997. Chemicals will be delivered out to the        intake cribs effectively controlling zebra mussel colonization in the intake pipelines.
CONCLUSION For the foreseeable future, proprietary molluscicides will continue to be used for zebra mussel control.      Mechanical cleaning can supplement chemical control methods in the circulating water system. Plant design changes including strainers,          filters, screens, and chemical delivery systems, will work to resolve the plant s zebra mussel related problems. Continuous chlorination has proven to be effective in contro~~ing zebra mussels in the service water and the miscellaneous sealing a cooling water systems.
Corrosion coupon studies in the service water systems have shown that alternatives to chlorine should be sought to minimize corrosion.          A zebra mussel monitoring program utilizing side-stream and arti,ficial substrate monitors, along          with diver and heat exchanger inspections, will continue to be used to evaluate the effectiveness of chemical and physical control measures.

==SUMMARY==
 
Biofouling Studies have been conducted at the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant since 1983.              In 1991, monitoring    of zebra  mussels in the circulating wat".r, essential service water (ESW), and nonessential service water (NESW) systems was added to the program.            The objectives of this monitoring are to detect the presence and density of zebra mussel veligers in the circulating water system and postveliger settlement in the forebay and service water systems.
Veligers were present in the forebay from 9 May through 12 December 1996. Peak densities occurred on 10 October and 26 September 1996, with the major peak occurring on the October date (292,750/m ).      Secondary peaks were observed on 17. 24 and 31 October 1996.              This period  of peak  abundance is typical for the lower Great Lakes which normally experience peak densities during the September-October period.
Settlement occurred in the forebay on all periodic sampling dates in 1996, except 6 June and 25 July. Size information indicates that settlement during the 6 June to        11  July period was partially composed of translocators. First evidence of 1996 spawned postveliger settlement was observed on 20 June.      Heaviest settlement occurred between 5 September and 21 November with the peak occurring between      19 September and 31 October.      This is typical for the lower Great Lake." ."ad is similar to results reported for the 1992, 1993, and 1994 monitoring pfograllls.
There were no proprietary molluscicide treaunents          in 1996. Therefore, the objective of comparing cumulative settlement in the forebay after treatment with that of the entire season could not be met.
Settlement  of live postveligers first appeared on the artificial substrates  set in the service water systems during the latter half    of October. Observation of location of individuals on slides, number    of half shells, no cilia or internal movement,      and size data indicated that results recorded from June through the first half      of October reflected the effects of the continuous chlorination, i.e., primarily dead organisms were en'.rained on the slides.
ES-1 Lawler, NIatusky        0  Skelly Engineers LLp
 
Peak densities on the neriodic      artific!al substrates which were placed on the service water systems occurred during the latter    half of October for all service water systems. This followed the peak densities in the wholewater samples by one to two weeks, as expected.          Densities of postveligers on the cumulative artificial substrate samples were low from 23 May through 22 August and peaked at ESWR-I, ESWR-2, and the miscellaneous sealing and cooling water systems during the latter  half of October. The highest density reported for NESW occurred on 12 December.
Several unexpected observations were made during the 1996 sampling season.          These includes:
        ~  Veligers were present in the wholewater samples through 12 December.
Size data for artificial substrate samples (both periodic and cumulative) indicated that small postveligers were present through 12 December and that these specimens were ali ene on the substrates collected on the November and December sampling dates.
A number of possible explanations are presented for these obs.rvations.          No one explanation by itself is considered to be the answer; but rather some combination of tnese factors is thought to be responsible for the unexpected results.        These possible explanations include:
o  The abnormally warm lake water, as measured at the, intake, during October (particularly the latter half of the month) most likely extended the peak spawnin" season for zeura mussels until the first part of November.
The efficacy of the chlorine may have been reduced by the combination of colder water and high pH during November and/or the possible presence of chloramines in the system.
Zebra mussel metabolic rates slowed down with the decrease in water temperature during November; therefore, they were not as susceptible to chlorine as during the warmer weather months.
Results may reflect presence of quagga mussels in the vicinity of the offshore.
intake. These relatives of zebra mussels continue to spawn at much colder water temperatures than zebra mussels and are known to be present in the Great Lakes.

CHAPTER      I INTRODUCTION 1.1  PAST HISTORY American Electric Power Company (AEP) has been conducting zebra mussel monitoring studies at the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant since 1991. The purpose        of the studies is to monitor the presence  of zebra  mussel veliger and postveliger settlement densities in the circulating water, essential  service water (ESW), and nonessential        service water (NESW) systems        to help determine the effectiveness of zebra mussel control programs.
The 1996 monitoring program conducted by Lawler, Matusky          & Skelly  Engineers LLp (LMS) was designed to detect the timing of spawning and senling    of zebra mussels at the Cook Nuclear Plant    and to collect and determine densities    for: (1) wholewater samples for planktonic veligers; and (2) artificial substrates  set within the circulating water, ESW, NESW, and miscellaneous sealing and cooling systems for periodic and cumulative postveliger settlement.
1.2  OMECTIVES Specific obje~...es for the 1996 biofouling monitoring program were as follows:
Whole-water sampling of the circulating water system was conducted weekly (June-October), bimonthly (May and November), or monthly (April'nd December) to determine the presence and density of larval zebra mussels.
Artificial substrates were deployed in the intake forebay and service water systems to detect settlement of post-veligers. Samples were collected every two weeks from June through October and once every three weeks during November and December.
Lawler, NIatusky & Skelly Engineer LLp
 
1 CHAPTER 2 METHODS 2.1  WHOLE-WATER SAMPLING Whole-water sampling of the circulating water system was conducted from 25 April to 12 December 1996 according to the schedule presented in Table 2-1. Samples were collected from mid-depth in the intake forebay by pumpjng lake water through an in-line flowmeter into a plankton net. The sampling location was consistent with that of previous studies.                Two replicates (2000 liters each) were collected during each sampling event.
A Myers Model 2JF-51-8 well pump, rated to deliver              8 gpm, was connected        to an in-line flowmeter assembly (Signet Model il'P58640) and pumped water into                  a  plankton net for approximately 45 minutes. To minimize organism abrasion,            measured flow was directed into a  No. 20 plankton net that was suspended in a partially filled 55-gal plastic barrel. Valves were adjusted to reduce flow, thus preventing the plankton net from overflowing when heavy sediment loads or plankton concentrations were present.
Samples were washed down gently into the cod-end bucket using filtered, circulating water system water a<<u then transferred into a    1 liter plastic jar. Ifneeded,  filtered water was added to the jar to ensure that  a full liter was analyzed. After the second replicate was taken, both samples were transported to the on-site laboratory and analyzed immediately.
Samples were    initially mixed thoroughly for 3 minutes using      a magnetic  stir plate. Then, using a  calibrated disposable Pasteur pipette, a 1-ml aliquot        of mixed sample      was placed into a Sedgewick-Rafter cell for counting, using an Olympus SZ-1145 binocular microscope (18-110X) equipped with cross-polarizing filters.      Ten replicates were counted, and the average was extrapolated to determine the number of individuals per cubic meter. This process was repeated for the second replicate and the mean of the two values was calculated to yield            a  final density value. The density was calculated as follows.

2.2 ARTIFICIALSUBSTRATES To determine zebra mussel settlement in the circulating water, ESW, and NESW systems, artificial substrates were placed in the intake forebay upstream of the trash racks; sidestream samplers were set on the return side    of both service water    systems and on the miscellaneous sealing and cooling system.      Monitors were equipped with modified test-tube racks designed to hold slides for periodic and cumulative sampling.      (Periodic settlement is defined  as short-term monitoring, either two- or three-week        periods, depending on the month.      Cumulative settlement is long-term monitoring that extends      from initial deployment [23 May] to the end of the sampling season.) Both periodic      and cumulative sampling dates are presented in Table 2-1.
2.2.1 Periodic Settlement Artificialst-'"ates that were designed to measure periodic settlement were placed in the intake forebay and consisted    of cinderblocks with test-tube racks secured inside the openings,. Periodic samplers were deployed by rope in the central location at approximately mid-depth.
Sidestream monitors were placed on the return side        of the service water  systems (ESW and NESW) and the miscellaneous sealing and cooling water system.            Each monitor contained two modified test-tube racks that held all slides above the monitor base.          This allowed silt and sediment to fall out before they could influence postveliger settlement.      Monitors were covered 4
with a plant-approved fireproof fabric to limit light exposure.        Plant personnel checked the monitors periodically to ensure that adequate flow was available, and flow was adjusted            as necessary. On each sampling date 10 slides from each location were retrieved and replaced with clean slides. These were labeled as periodic settlement.      Slides were placed in labeled 2-2 Lawler, Matusky A Skelly Engineers LLP 12
 
0 racks, covered, with  a plastic bag, and transported to the on-site laboratory where they were analyzed immediately.
2.2.2 Cumulative Settlement A sufficient number of substrates were initially placed in the biobox samplers to allow    10 slides to be removed once per month at the service water and miscellaneous sealing and cooling water locations. These slides were not replaced. Cumulative settlement was monitored in the forebay using two pieces    of PVC pipe that were  each six inches long and had an inside diameter    of two inches. Each pipe was cut in half lengthwise, rejoined using hose clamps, and attached to        a rope at intervals  of about  three feet. These were deployed at the central location at mid-depth.
One sampler was intended to be exposed to Clam Trol CT-2 and the other was not to be exposed to the toxicant during the Clamtrol treatment. Cumulative monitoring was designed to provide information on accumulated infestation throughout the growing season.              There were no proprietar'y molluscide treatments in 1996.

Analysis was conducted with an Olympus SZ-1145 binocular microscope (18-110X) equipped with cross-p".larizing filters. After one side of the slide was scraped clean, the slide was placed on the microscope so that the attached postveligers could be counted.          When s..      beche heavily infested, a subsampling technique was followed:
The slides were subsampled using a splitter that permitted either half or a quarter of the slide to be counted. Counts were then proportionally extrapolated to one square meter.
Settlement rates were computed by taking the average value    of the 10 slides and multiplying this value by 533.34        to obtain the density of zebra        mussels  per square    meter."    (One postveliger/microscope slide equals 533.34 veii~ers per square meter.)

Shell diameters    were measured    for up to 50 selected and random individuals for both unsubsampled    and subsampled    slides to obtain maximum, minimum, and mean sizes.
Diameters were measured using an ocular micrometer calibrated to a stage micrometer.
2.3  QUALITYASSURANCE / QUALITYCONTROL A total of three sampling dates were reanalyzed by Mr. Jeffrey Mensinger (who conducted this zebra mussel monitoring program for LMS during the period 1992 through 1994} for precision and accuracy  of the counting procedures. Samples were shipped to an off-site laboratory and analyzed using the same procedures as the original analysis.      Dates reanalyzed included 27 June, 31 October, and 12 December 1996.      One liter of wholewater  and one slide from each sampling site (both cumulative and periodic artificial substrates) were reinspected.

CHAPTER      3 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 3.1  WHOLE-WATER SAMPLING Sampling  of planktonic veligers in the circulating water  system was initiated on 25    April 1996 and completed on 12 December 1996.          Fifty-six samples were tal'en (two per sampling date) from the station's intake forebay. The monitoring system performed up to expectations.            The continued use  of an electronic flowmeter provided    data comparable to those  of the 1993, 1994, and 1995 monitoring programs.      As  a result, direct comparisons with those data can be made.
Results  of sampling are  presented in Figure 3-1 and Table 3-1.      With the exception of the 25 April sampling date, veligers were present in all samples collected. The major density peak was observed    on 10 October (292,750/m ).          Lesser peaks  of  abuiidance occurred on 26 September (92,250/m ), 17 October (57,250/m ), 24 October (53,450/m ), and 31 October (55,650/m3).
As was observed in previous years, veliger presence throughout the monitoring program (except for April) suggests that substantial densities of velig rs are in the water coltl'nfor more than six months of the ye~.. Heaviest spawning activity occurred during the mid-Ocl            '.'i:liod.
During the seven weeks from mid-September through the end of October, mean veliger densities were approximately 85,280/m, which was about 84,000/m greater than the same period in 1995 and similar to densities recorded in 1994.      In 1993 and 1995, the peak abundances were recorded during this seven week period; while in 1994, peak abundance occurred atypically in June. The late September-October    period of peak abundance is more typical- for the lower Great Lakes    (O'eil, personal  communication). It is thought that the June 1994 peak was more the result  of unusually hot weather that occurred turing        the first two weeks    of June than environmental differences between the early fall periods amongst the years of record.

Size data for the 1996 sampling season shows that translocators were active in the forebay on 23 May and 6 June. Spawning commenced between 25 April and 9 May and continued through the middle  of December    as  indicated by the lower portion    of the size  range data. Size range data also show that translocators were present in the water column from 23 May through 6 Jure but then were absent from the samples for the remainder          of the sampling  season. On most other data, the upper end    of the size range exceeded the size    of settlement (200-225pm)    and was in or exceeded this range on every sampling date from          1 August through 12 December.
However, mean size did not approach this settlement size range until October.
In summary, zebra mussel veligers were present in the water column on all sampling dates except 25 April. Spawning commenced between 25 April and 9 May and continued through mid-December.      Peak veliger densities occurred during the seven week period from mid-September to the end    of October which    is typical  for the lower Great Lakes and has been reported at the Cook Plant for three    of the last four years (1993,  1995, and 1996).
3.2 ARTIFICIALSUBSTRATE SAMPLING 3.2.1 Circulating Water System Artificialsubstrate monitoring was conducted at the center forebay location (which is protected by  a deflector - "11):;om 23    May to 12 December 1996.        Periodic settlement    r;.',ar  the circulating water system (forebay) are shown in Figure 3-2. Table 3-2 provides density and size information for settled postveligers.
Settlement in the forebay occurred on all periodic sampling dates in 1996 except 6 June and 25 July. Density information presented in Table 3-2 indicates that settlement was low from 6 June through 5 September (0-8600lmz). Several translocators settled on the substrates during the 6 "June to  11 July period. First evidence of settlement of 1996 spawned zebra mussels was observed on 20 June. Heaviest settlement occurred between 5 September and 21 November with the peak occurring during the      3 October to 17 October period.        This is typical for the lower Great Lakes and is consistent with results reported for the 1992, 1993, and 1994 3-2 Lawler, Matusky & Skelly Engineers LLp

monitoring programs (LMS 1993, 1994, 1995), but later than 1995 when settlement in the forebay peaked between      13 July and 17 September (GLEC 1996).        Similar to 1994 and 1995 results, very little settlement occurred during the late November to mid-December period.
Based  on size data,    the majority    of those  individuals settling during this period were postveligers whose average size ranged from 283 to 290 pm.
Two six inch long pieces of PVC (ID 2 in.) were suspended                in the forebay to monitor cumulative settlement.      The objective of this program element is to compare the post Clamtrol treatment settlement to that    of the entire sampling  season. Data collected in previous years indicates that much  of the  annual settlement occurs after the treatment. This program objective was not met in 1996 because molluscicide treatment was not administered and the samples were lost.
3.2.2 Service and Miscellaneous Sealing and Cooling Water Systems The return sides    of the ESW    and NESW systems were monitored during 1996.            The ESW systems    of both Units  1  and 2 were monitored throughout the sampling period; but only the Unit  1 NESW system was sampled in 1996. A sidestre w biobox monitor was also placed on the miscellaneous    sealing and cooling water system which draws its water from a source separate frc::; that  of the service water  systems. The ESW, NESW, and miscellaneous sealing and cooling water systems were scheduled            for chlorination from mid-May tt. u..        nd of November.
Periodic settlement densities for the service water systems and die miscellaneous sealing and water system are shown in Table 3-2 and          Fibre  3-3:  Settlement occurred in low  'ooling densities at NESW      R-l, ESW R-l, and    miscellaneous sealing and cooling water system on the first retrieval date (6 June), but did not appear on artificial substrates set at ESW R-2 until    11 July. Density and size information (Table 3-2) shows that settlement was sparse at all locations during June with densities ranging from 0 to 160U/mz. Size data indicate that most postveligers collected in June were spawned during May, with several translocators also appearing on the substrates.

Figure 3-4 presents the comparison    of periodic settlement    densities with those  of wholewater veligers for the sampling season.      As expected, these data show that periods        of increased'ettlement in the systems monitored lag increases in wholewater densities by about one to two weeks. This is particularly evident during the mid-September to end          of October period.
Because total residual chlorine data are not available  for the last,two weeks of October, it can not  b: determined whether  the settlement. was the result  of insufficient availability of chlorine to prevent settlement.
Chlorine was administered continuously to the treated systems for the entire season in 1996.
Total residual chlorine data were reported on      a  weekly basis (Table 3-3). '1'here were several occasions during the season when no data are available. These include 18 July and 25 and 31 October. The October dates coincide with the laner part. of the peak spawning period and inadequate chlorination may be responsible        for the high densities recorded at both NESW (31,680/m ) and ESW R-1 (20,480/m ) locations on 31 October. Conversely, lower densities were recorded at miscellaneous sealing and cooling and ESW R-2 locations on 31 October than on the previous sampling date (17 October) when peak settlement occurred at both locations.
Inspection of the discharge monitoring report (DMR) for October indicates that chlorination was continuously applied to the systems from 19 through 31 October. This suggests that either the dosage was low on the efficacy      of the chlorine had been reduced by condition beyond the control of plant staff.
The ESW systems are cross connected downstream of the one chlorine injection point that serves both ESW systems.      The separate chlorine inject location that serves the NESW system also serves the miscellaneous sealing and cooling system. Considering these cross connections, the data are somewhat confounding.        One possible      xplanation is that chlorine is not being.
equally distributed through the cross connections.
I nspection  of the remainder of the  data indicates that settlement was prevented/controlled from May through the tifth of September.      Then,  as  the peak spawning occurred and large numbers of postveligers of senlement    size came into the systems, densities on the periodic artificial substrates increased until the peaks were reached in      th: latter half of October (which coincided Lawler, Matusky      8c Skelly Engineers LLP 23

For the first time in this monitoring program, settlement of postveligers continued in all the systems    through November until the program was concluded              in mid-December.        The observation  of an increase in density at three of the four in-plant monitoring locations between 21 November and 12 December was unexpected.              This appears to be  a  combination of the densities  of veligers in  the intake water and the efficiency    of the chlorine  at cooler water temperatures in water that typically exhibits high pH. Figure      34 presents information showing wholewater veliger and periodic settlement densities for the sampling season.            Wholewater densities continued to be above 50,000/m~ until the first week    of November  and remained above 17,000/m~ through 7 November.          These veligers continued to grow and became postveligers of settleable size by the third week of November. Most likely, veligers were present in the lake water after 21 November and these then were included in the unexpected periodic densities recorded on 12 December.          Wholewater densities recorded during the 1993 through 1995 programs for the November-December sampling periods were less than 1000/m3 for sampling conducted afte~ ~ Nc.~mber.          This suggests that spawning continued into the late    'early winter period in 1996. This is atypical in the vicinity of D.C. Cook Plant based on four years of data. A preliminary review of chlorine chemistry          indicates that pH may have a greater influence driving the reaction than temperature as shown in the following table.

Comparison    of daily water  temperatures recorded on the DMR's for the months      of October, November. and December for 1993 through 1996 indicates that intake water temperatures in October 1996 were considerably warmer than the previous three,"ears, particularly during the second half    of the month.      November and December (first      15 days)  mean intake water temperatures in 1996 were similar to those    of 1993 and 1994 but warmer than in 1995. As can be seen in the table below, December mean intake water temperatures recorded in 1996 were cooler for this period than in both 1993 and 1994.

+can  intake water temperatures reflect lake conditions which were more conducive to zebra mussel spawning during both halves      of October in 1996 than they were in the previous years.
However, the data for both November and the flr t half of December do not suggest that intake water temperatures    in 1996 would have been conducive to continued spawning during the November-December        period. Therefore, it is reasonable  to conclude, that the favorable spawning temperatures      during the second half of October 1996 were at least partially responsible for the settlement observed on the artificial substrates      in both November and December.
Changes may also have occurred in the water quality constituents that use chlorine as an oxidant, e.g., iron, manganese, and ammonia.        Ammonia is particularly important because it forms chloramines with chlorine. These often are measured in the TRC readings suggesting that the target is being met.      However, chloramines are not      as reactive as free chlorine (therefore, not  as effective) although they are more persistent in the water column. In the case 3-6 Lawler, Matusky & Skelly Engineers LLp 27
 
of Cook Plant, this would reduce the effectiveness    because the flow through the service water systems remains relatively rapid, that is, it does not remain in the system long enough for the chloramines to be effective.
Another possible explanation for the veligers and postveliger senlement observed during November and December is that the individuals were early life stages of quagga mussels (Dreissena bugensis), a relative    of zebra  mussels. Quagga mussels tend to inhabit deeper, colder waters and spawning is not limited by colder water temperatures.            Therefore, it is feasible that, as lake water temperatures    decreased  during November and December, these H
mussels  (if present) continued to spawn and the early life forms were collected.        Early life stages  of muss'els believed to  be quagga mussels have begun to appear during cold weather months at other sampling sites along the Great Lakes during the last, two to three years (L. Ray Tuttle, personal communication). It is plausible that an adult pop!lation of quagga mussels has become established in the vicinity of the Cook Plant intake and has reached sufficient numbers such that the effects  of their spawning  is beginning to be observed in this project.
A second set of data was collected from each of the service water systems and miscellaneous sealing and cooling water system          for the purpose of determining the effectiveness of chlorination during the entire sampling season.      These cumulative densities and associated size information:"- ~resented in Figure 3-5 and Table 3-4. Artificialsubstrates      used for cumulative analyses were set on 23 May and sets    of 10 slides were retrieve~ from each location at monthly intervals throughout the sampling 'season beginning on 20 June.          Results were evaluated in conjunction with periodic data to better understand pcstveliger settlement in the systems.
Density data indicate that few postveligers were on the artificial substrates collected from 20 June through 22 August at NESW, ESW R-2, and miscellaneous sealing and cooling systems.
Concentrations at the ESW R-1 location was somewhat higher than the other locations during this period. Size information shows that, with the exception      of several translocators collected at the miscellaneous sealing and cooling water location, most      of the individuals on  the slides at all locations were below the threshold size for settlement.      Furthermore, these specimens 3-7 Lawler, Matusky      4  Skelly Engineers LLp 28

0 exhibited no signs of lite (beating cilia and stomach movement). The reasonable conclusion is that the chlorine was very effective throughout the summer.
As the densities of veligers increased in wholewater samples during the fall, densities on the cumulative artificial substrates also increased  as might be expected. The observation that peak densit  cccurred at the miscellaneous sealing and cooling water systems and the ESW R-I systems on 17 October was not surprising because wholewater densities peaked on 10 October.
However, peak densities occurred at the other two locations on 12 December with the NESW density being the highest (17,013/m ) for the year for all cumulative samples.              This was unexpected and may have been the result      of a lack of sufficient chlorination that seems to have occurred during the latter half of October. The discussion regarding efficacy      of chlorine during this late fall period which is presented above (periodic artificial substrate results) applies to the cumulative results as well.
Size data show two expected and one unexpected results.          Mean sizes progressively increased the fall period at all locations (except for the last sampling at the miscellaneous        'hroughout sealing and cooling system); and generally, the high end      of the size ranges also increased during the fall period. The somewhat unexpected result was the low end of the size ranges which indica'. d that recently hatched postveligers continued to settle on these substrates          until the middle of December. The presence of these smaller veligers suggests that settlement may have continued at some low rate after the monitoring program was discontinued for i.                season.
Furthermore, most      of those organisms observed on the artificial substrates in December were alive. It is reasonable to conclude that chlorination was not very effective during the late fall period in 1996.
3.3 QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITYCONTROL SAMPLES The results of the QA/QC samples analyzed in 1996 are summarized in Table 3-5.                    These reinspections included both original analyzers used for this project and were conducted by              a third analyzer. Because one slide from each set      of 10 analyzed on each    sampling date was randomly selected for re-analysis, no statistics were applied. However, results were compared 3-8 Lawler, Matusky & Skelly Engineers LLP

t'or percent agreement between the two analyses. In each case where artiticial substrate results fell below 100%, the reinspection result was lower than the original. It was observed by the QC inspector that specimens    were lying free, i.e.,  off the slide, in the packaging.      The conclusion is that a few individuals on those slide were not solidly attached, perhaps even dead, and fell from the slides during shipping. Given this explanation of differences, the artificial substrate data reported in this program are acceptable.      The difference in the wholewater analyses for the 12 December sample is attributed to low numbers of veligers in the sample. These may have settled in  the!iter bottle during shipment  and not resuspended when agitated by the QC inspector. Wholewater results are deemed to be acceptable.

CHAPTER 4
 
==SUMMARY==
AND RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1
 
==SUMMARY==
 
The 1996 zebra mussel sampling was initiated on 25 April and continued to 12 December. The major spawning peak occurred during the first week of October with lesser peaks occurring during the third week  of September  and the latter  half of October. The magnitude of the peak was two orders    of magnitude greater  than the 1995 peak, which was atypically low, and about 60%    of the peak reported for  1994.
Peak postveliger settlement in the forebay occurred during the 3-17 October period which followed peak wholewater densities by about eight to        10 days as expected. Secondary peaks in settlement were observed for the periods both just before and after the major settlement peak.
Fall spawning and settlement peaks are typical for the loiter Great Lakes.              Cumulative settlement observations were not made following molluscicide treaunent because treatment was not administered in 1996.
Periods  of heaviest periodic settlement occurred during    the mid-September to end    of October period in all  plant,.;erns monitored. This      corresponded    to peak periods  of spawning  as measured in the wholewater samples.        During the early part of this period (mid-September to mid-October), few live mussels were observed on the substrates.        However, from mid-October through to the end    of the monitoring season,    live specimens were observed on the slides, particularly in November and December.          This suggests that chlorination was less effective during this period than earlier in the season.
Cumulative settlement in the service water and miscellaneous sealing and cooling systems was essentially prevented from May through the first p'art    of September. The few specimens on the substrates  were dead which is indicative    of effective chlorination. Then    as peak spawning occurred, densities increased peaking in mid-October in the miscellaneous sealing and cooling 4-1 Lawler, Matusky & Skelly Engineers LLP 34
 
and ESW R-I systems.          This corresponded    to peaks in periodic settlement.      However, settlement unexpectedly peaked at NESW and ESW R-2 on 12 December.                    Many ot'hese specimens were alive reflecting the reduced level      of effectiveness of the chlorination program during the November-December period.        Growth of settled postveligers also occurred during this period reinforcing the conclusion that the effectiveness      of the chlorination program  was reduced during this period.
4.2 RECOMMENDATIONS Based on observations      made during the course      of this program, LMS      is making several recommendations:
Whole-water sampling should continue to be initiated in April to determine the presence  of veligers in the water column.
Studies  of postveliger settlement substrates should continue to be conducted from May through December. Inspection of the substrates should include anempting to move the postveligers with a probe to determine whether they are still motil or have begun to lay down byssal threats for permanent attachment.
The chlorination system should be maintained to ensure appropriate intermittent or contmuous delivery of chlorine to control postveliger, settlement (1 May-I Uecember), particularly in light of the 1996 results.
Based on set '"~ent data from the early paw of the piogram (May-June), chlorine should be delivered to the service water systems beginning during the first hair of May. This should reduce/eliminate the translocators from establishing residency in the critical service water systems.
Daily chlorination data should be made available to allow more meaningful interpretation of results.
Several other water quality parameters including pH and ammonia should be monitored at the intake to aid in determination of efficacy of chlorine. Also, concentration of chloramines should be determined downstream of the bioboxes for the same reason.

==SUMMARY==
 
This report summarizes the collection and analysis of various environmental sample media in 1996 for the Radiological Environmen-tal Monitoring Program for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant.
The various analyses of most sample media suggest that there was no discernible impact of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant on the environment. The analysis of air particulate filters. charcoal cartridges.
direct radiation by thermoluminescent dosimeters, fish, water, milk and sediments from Lake Michigan, drinking water. and food products, either did not detect any radioactivity or measured only naturally occurring radionuclides at normal background levels.
Tritium, measured at low levels in on-site wells, appears to be the only radionuclide attributable to the plant operations. However, the associated groundwater does not provide a direct dose pathway to man.
 
INTRODUCTION
 
I. INTRODUCTION 0
The Donald C. Cook Nuclear Piant's Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) is conducted in compliance with NRC Regulatory Guide 1.21 and 4.1, licensing commitments, and Technical Specifications. The REMP was developed in accordance with the NRC Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position (BTP), Rev. 1, November 1979. A synopsis of the sampling program and maps can be found in Section II, Sampling and Analysis Program.          This report represents the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report for Units 1 and 2 of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant for the operating period from January 1, 1996 through December 31, 1996.
A. The Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant of American Electric Power Company is located on the southeastern shore of Lake Michigan approximately one mile northwest of Bridgm"n. Michigan. The plant consists of two pressurized water reactors, Unit 1, 1030 MWE and Unit 2, 1100 hAVE. Unit 1 achieved initial criticality on January 18, 1975 and Unit 2 achieved initial criticality on March 10, 1978.
B      Object'ives The objectives of the operational radiological environmental monitoring program are:
: l. Identify and measure radiation and radioactivity in the plant environs for the calculation of potential dose to the population.
: 2. Verify the effectiveness of in-plant measures          used for controlling the release of radioactive materials.
: 3. Provide reasonable assurance that the predicted doses, based on effluent data, have not been substantially underestimated and are consistent with applicable standards.
: 4. Comply with regulatory requirements and Station Technical Specifications and provide records to document compliance.
 
During 1996 the following changes          were made    to the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM)
The changes became effective on 10/22/96 and included:
Adding an attachment which approved on-site storage of contaminated concrete Changed Unit Ventilation H-3 requirement from continuous to weekly grab samples.
Removed emergency plan values- due to upcoming implementation of revised Emergency Action Levels (EAL).
Clarified section describing collection of broadleaf vegetation samples in lieu of milk samples.
Corrected error in numbering of electrical pole where TLD station
    &#xb9;OFT-11 is located.
Eliminated the need for compensatory sampling of Essential Service Water (ESW) system when respective radiation monitors are inoperable unless the containment spray heat exchangers are in service.
 
II. SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM
 
II. SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM Table 1 summarizes the sampling and analysis program for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant for l996. For each sample medium, the table lists the sample locations, including distance and direction from the center of the two units, and the station identification. The station identifications for the sampling locations are shown on Figures I and 2. Also for each sample medium the sample collection frequency, type of analysis. and frequency of analysis are listed.

==SUMMARY==
AND DISCUSSION OF 1996 ANALYTICALRESULTS A discussion of the data from the radiological analyses of environmental media collected during the report period is provided in this section. Analyses of samples for 1996 were analyzed by Teledyne Brown Engineering, Inc. {TI) in Westwood, New Jersey.        The procedures and specifications followed at Teledyne Brown Engineering are in accordance with the Teledyne Brown Engineering Quality Assurance Manual and are explained in the Teledyne Brown Engineering Analytical Procedures.          A synopsis of analytical procedures used for the environmental samples are in Appendix C. In addition to internal quality control measures      'roved performed by Teledyne, the laboratory also participates in the Environmental Protection Agency's Interlaboratory Comparison Program.
Participation in this program ensures that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental samples are performed.              The results of the EPA Interlaboratory Comparison are provided in Appendix D.
Radiological analyses of environmental media characteristically approach and frequently fall below the detection limits of state-of-the-art measurement methods. Teledyne Brown Engineering analytical methods meet or exceed the Lower Limit of Detection {LLD) requirements given in Table 2 =f the USNRC Branch Technical Position of Radiological Monitoring, Revision  l. November 1979.
The following is a discussion    and summary of the results of the environmental measurements performed during the reporting period.
Comparison is made where possible with radioactivity concentrations measured in the preoperational period of August 1971 to the initial criticality of Unit 1 on January 12, 1975. A brief summary of the preoperational program is found in Appendix G.

gross, beta activities are presented in Table B-l. The measurement of the gross beta activity on the weekly air particulate filters is a good indication of the levels of natural and or manmade radioactivity in the environment.      The average gross beta concent. ation of the six indicator locations was 0.020 pCi/m~ with a range of individual values between 0.007 and 0.036 pCi/m~. The average gross beta concentration of the four control locations was 0.020 pCi/m~ with a range between 0.007 and 0.033 pCi/m~. In. Trending Graph 1 the
  ., monthly average gross beta concentrations for the indicator locations and for the control locations are plotted.              The gross beta concentrations in air particulate filters in 1996 were lower than at the end of the preoperational period when the effects of recent atmospheric nuclear tests were being detected.
Air particulate filters were composited by location on a quarterly basis and were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy.            Results are presented in Table B-2. Beryllium-7, which is produced continuously in the upper atmosphere by cosmic radiation, was measured in all forty samples. The average concentration for the control locations was 0.128 pCi/m~ and the values ranged from 0.088 to 0.154 pCi/m~. The average concentration for the indicator locations was 0.139 pCi/m~
with a range of 0.075 to 0.195 pCi/m. These values are typical of beryllium-7 measured at various locations throughout the United States. Naturally occurring potassium-40 was measured in seven of the twenty-four indicator quarterly composites with an average concentration of 0.005 pCi/m~ and a range of 0.004 to 0.009 pCi/m~.
Potassium-40 was measured in four of the sixteen control quarterly composites with a concentration of 0.004 pCi/m~ and a range of 0.003 to 0.004 pCi/m~. No other gamma emitting radioactivity was detected.
B    Airborne iodine Airborne iodine samples are collected with an oil less pump at approximately 56 LPM using a charcoal filter cartridge. Charcoal cartridges are installed downstream of the particulate filters and are used to collect airborne radioiodine. The results of the weekly analysis 18
 
of the charcoal cartridges are presented in Table 8-3. All results were below the lower level of detection of 0.07 pCi/m with no positive activity detected.
C. Direct Radiation  - Thermoluminescent Dosimeters Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) measure external radiation exposure from several sources including naturally occurring radionuclides in the air and soil, radiation from cosmic origin, fallout from atomic weapons testing, potential radioactive airborne releases from the power station and direct radiation from the power station.
The TLDs record exposure from all of these potential sources. The TLDs are deployed quarterly at 27 locations in the environs surrounding the D. C. Cook Nuclear Plant. The average value of the four areas of each dosimeter (calibrated individually after each field exposure period for response to a known exposure and for transit exposure) are presented in Table B-4. Those exposure rates are quite typical of observed ra'tes at many other locations in the country. The average annual measurement, for the control samples was 4.34 mR/standard month with a range of 3.0 to 6,6 mR/standard month.
The annual accumulation of indicator samples had a measurement of 4.17 mR/standard month with a range of 2.8 to 6.6 mR/standard month. The 1996 annual average in the environs of the Donald C.
Cook Nuclear Plant is at the low range of the exposure rat~~ (1.0 to 2.0 mR/week) measured during the preoperational period. The results of the indicator and control TLDs are in good agreement and are plotted in Trending Graph 2.
D. Surface Water A 125 milliliter surface water sample is collected from the intake forebay and from two shoreline locations, all within 0.3 mile of the two reactors and were composited daily over a monthly period.
The thirty samples were analyzed for iodine-131 by the radiochemical technique described on page 73. All results were less than the lower limit of detection of 1 pCi/l. 'I'he quarterly composite was analyzed for 19

tritium by liquid scintillation method described on page 70. Results are presented in Table B-5. Tritium was detected in 2 of the 10 samples analyzed with an average concentration of 520 pCi/liter and a range of 130 to 910 pCi/liter. This is slightly higher than the 3 measurements in 1995 which had an average concentration of 310 pCi/liter. During the preoperational period tritium was measured in surface water sam ples at concentrations of approximately 400 pCi/liter. Naturally occurring potassium-40 and cesium-137 were not measured during 1996. Naturally occurring gamma emitting isotopes were detected using gamma ray spectroscopy.
E. Groundwater Water samples are collected quarterly from fourteen wells, all within 4300 feet of the reactors. First, a static water elevation is determined and three well bore volumes are purged from the well using a groundwater pump, or equivalent. A two liter sample is then obtained. The samples are analyzed for gamma emitters and tritium.
The results are presented in Table B-6.          Naturally occurring potassium-40 was not measured during 1996 nor were there any other gamma emitting isotopes measured. The groundwater wells W-4, W-5, W-6. W-7. W-9. W-11, W-13 and W-14 had measurable tritium activity throughout 1996. Tritium was measured in 21 of the 56 samples at the loca,ons with an average concentration of 1659 pCi/liter and a range of 210 to 14000 pCi/liter. The annual concentrations of tritium in wells W-l through W-7 are plotted in Trending Graph 3. An additional six wells were added to the program during 1992 and one well in 1993. The results are plotted quarterly for 1996 in Trending Graph 3.
Tritium concentration      in groundwater wells during the preoperational period typically averaged 400 pCi/liter.

Daily samples are collected at the intake of the purification plants for St. Joseph and Lake Township. The 500 ml daily samples at each location are composited and analyzed for gross beta, iodine-131, and gamma emitters. On a quarterly basis the daily samples are composited and analyzed for tritium. The results of analyses of drinking water samples are shown in Table 3-7.
Gross beta activity was measured in all twenty-six samples from the Lake Township intake with an average concentration of 3.41 pCi/liter and a range from 2.1 to 5.1 pCi/liter. Gross beta activity was measured in all twenty-six samples from the St. Joseph intake with an average concentration of 3.35 pCi/liter and a range from 1.8 to 5.7 pCi/liter. No gamma emitting isotopes or iodine-131 were detected.
Tritium was not measured in any of the four samples from either location. Tritium (or LLD values) in drinking water are plotted in Trending Graph 4.
There were no drinking water analyses        performed in the preoperational program.
G. ~edimen    i S .dtment samples are cnllected semiannually along the shoreline of Lake Michigan at the same two locations as the surface water samples. Two liters of lake sediment are collected using a small dredge in an area covered part time by wave action. The sediment samples are analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy, the results of which are shown in Table B-8. In April and October one sample was collected from location SL-2 and SL-3. Gamma ray spec      spectroscop roscopy deetected naturally occurring potassium-40 in all four samples. The average potassium-40 concentration was 4695 pCi/kg (dry weight) with a range from 3420 to 6510 pCi/kg (dry weight). Thorium-228, also naturally occurring was measured in all samples with an average concentration of 443 pCi/kg (dry weight) with a range from 91.8 to 846 pCi/kg (dry weight). Radium-226 was measured in two samples 25

with an average activity of 667 pCi/kg and a range of 440 to 894 pCi/kg (dry weight). All other gamma emitters were below the lower limits of detection.
H. Milk During 1996. the requirements of two samples from different locations could not be met. The sampling of food samples was increased to offset the milk.
Broadleaf Ve etation Broadleaf vegetation was collected in lieu of milk during 1996. Thirty one samples were collected and results are presented in Table B-10.
Naturally occurring potassium-40 was measured in all samples with an average concentration of 4018 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 2220 to 6740 pCi/kg (wet weight).          Cosmogenically produced beryllium-7 was measured in all samples with an average concentration of 1275 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 324 to 4460 pCi/kg (wet weight). Cesium-137 was measured in seven samples.
with an average concentration of 87.4 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 27.3 to 298 pCi/kg (wet weight).
J. Fish Using gill nets in approximately twenty feet of water in Lake Michigan, 4.5 pounds of fish are collected 2 times per year from each of four locations. The samples were then analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy.      Results are presented in Table B-11. Naturally occurring potassium-40 was measured in all samples with an average concentration of 3463 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 2810 to 4200 pCi/kg (wet weight). Cesium-137 was measured in five of the seven fish samples with an average concentration of 50.8 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 28.7 to 72.0 pCi/kg (wet weight).

K. Food Products Food samples are collected annually at harvest, as near the site boundary as possible, and approximately twenty miles from the plant.
Each sample consists of 3 pounds of grapes and 3 pounds of broadleaves. There were four food samples collected during 1996 and results are presented in Table B-12. Naturally occurring potassium-40 was measured in all four samples with an average concentration of 2163 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 1630 to 2650 pCi/kg (wet weight). Cosmogenically produced beryllium-7 was measured in three of the four samples with an average concentration of 1583 pCi/kg (wet weight) and a range of 58.6 to 3280 pCi/kg (wet-weight). All other gamma emitters were below the lower limits of detection.

IV. CONCLUSIONS 29
 
IV. CONCLUSIONS The results of the 1996 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for the Donald C., Cook Nuclear Plant have be.n presented. The results were as expected for normal environmental samples. Naturally occurring radioactivity was observed in sample media in the expected activity ranges.
J Occasional samples of a few media showed the presence of man-made isotopes. These have been discussed individually in the text. Observed activities were at very low concentrations and had no significant dose consequence.      Specific examples of sample media with positive analysis results are discussed below.
Air particulate gross beta concentrations of all the indicator locations for 1996 appear to follow the gross beta concentrations at the control locations. The concentration levels are actually lower than during the preoperational period. Gamma isotopic analysis of the particulate samples identified the gamma emitting isotopes as natural products (beryllium-7 and potassium-40). No man-made activity was found in the particulate media during 1996. No iodine-131 was detected in charcoal filters in 1996.
Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) measure external gamma radiation from naturally occurring radionuclides in the air and soil, radiation from cosmi~ ~rigin and fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons testing, and radioactive airborne releases and direct radiation from the power plant.
The average annual TLD results were at normal background exposure levels.
Surface water samples are collected daily from the intake forebay and two locations in Lake Michigan. The samples are analyzed quarterly for tritium. and monthly for gamma emitting isotopes. No gamma emitters were detected during 1996. Tritium was measured and the concentrations were at normal background levels.
Groundwater samples were collected quarterly at fourteen wells, all within 4300 feet of the reactors. The three wells within -500 feet had measurable tritium which is attributed to the operation of the plant. The highest concentration measured in 1996 was 14000 pCi/liter while the 30
 
0 highest concentration measured during 1995 was 7000 pCi/liter. The increased tritium concentration is attributed to draining portions of the Component Cooling Water (CCW) system to the turbine room sump which discharges into the onsite absorption pond. Well W-14 is adjacent to the pond and monitors the aquifer at this location. Potassium-40, a naturally occurring nuclide was not observed during 1996. No other gamma emitting isotopes were detected.
Samples are'collected daily at the intakes of the drinking purification plants for St. Joseph and Lake Township. Samples composited daily over a two week period are analyzed for iodine-131, gross beta, and measured for gamma emitting isotopes.      Samples are also analyzed quarterly for tritium.
No iodine-131 or gamma emitting isotopes were detected.        Gross beta was measured in all fifty-two samples at normal background concentrations.
Tritium was not measured in any of the eight quarterly composite samples collected during 1996.
Sediment samples can be a sensitive indicator of discharges from
-nuclear power stations. Sediment samples are collected semiannually along the shoreline of Lake Michigan at two locations in close proximity of the reactors. The samples were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy and only naturally occurring gamma emitters were detected. There is no evidence of station discharges affecting Lake Michigan, either in the sediments or in the water. as previously discussed.
M ilk samples  were not analyzed during 1996 due to lack of participants in the program. Broadleaf sampling was performed in lieu of milk collection in 1996. Cesium-137 was measured in 7 of 31 broadleaf samples. No other gamma emitting isotopes were measured in broadleaf samples in 1996.
Fish samples collected in Lake Michigan in the vicinity of the nuclear plant. were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. The only gamma emitting isotope measured was cesium-137 which was found in low concentrations in five samples.
31
 
Food products, consisting of grapes, and broadleaf vegetation were collected and analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy.        No gamma emitting isotopes were measured during 1996 The-results of the analyses have been presented.        Based on the evidence of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant is operating within regulatory limits. Tritium in seven on-site wells appears to be the only radionuclide which can be directly correlated with the plant. However the associated groundwater does not provide a direct dose pathway to man.

DETERMINATION OF GROSS BETA ACTIVITYIN WATER SAMPLES
 
==1.0  INTRODUCTION==
 
The procedures described in this section are used to measure the overall radioactivity of water samples without identifying the radioactive species present. No chemical separation techniques are involved.
One liter of the sample is evaporated on a hot plate. A smaller volume may be used if the sample has a significant salt content. If requested by the customer, the sample is filtered through No. 54 filter paper before evaporation, removing particles greater than 30 microns in size.
Aft.er evaporating to a small volume in a beaker, the sample is rinsed into a 2-inch diameter stainless steel planchet which is stamped with a concentric ring pattern to distribute residue evenly. Final evaporation to dress takes place under heat lamps.
Residue mass is determined by weighing the planchet before and after mounting the sample. The planchet is counted for beta activity on an automatic proportional counter. Results are calculated using empirical sell-absorption curves which allow for the change in effective counting emciency caused by the residue mass.
70
 
2.0 DETECTION CAPABILITY Detection capability depends upon the sample volume actually represented on the planchet, the background and the efficiency of. the counting instrument, and upon self-absorption of beta particles by the mounted sample. Because the radioactive species are not identified, no decay corrections are made and the reported activity refers to the counting time.
The minimum detectable level (MDL) for water samples is nominally 1.6 picocuries per liter for gross beta at the 4.66 sigma level (1.0 pCi/1 at the 2.83 sigma level), assuming that 1 liter of sample is used and that >
gram of sample residue is mounted on the planchet. These figures are based upon a counting time of 50 minutes and upon representative values of counting efficiency and background of 0.2 and 1.2 cpm. respectively.,
The MDL becomes significantly lower as the mount weight decreases because oi reduced self'-absorption. At a zero mount weight, l)>e 4.66 sigma MDL for gross beta i" 0.9 picocuries per liter. These values reflect a beta counting efficiency of 0.38.
 
ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FOR TRITHJM (Liquid Scintillation)
Water Ten milliliters of water are mixed with 10 ml of a liquid scintillation "cocktail" and then the mixture is counted in an automatic liquid scintillator.
Calculation of the results, the two sigma error and the lower limit detection (LLD) in pCi/1:
RESULT                          (N-B)/(2.22 V E)
TWQ S1GMA ERROR            =  2((N +  B)/dt)1/2/ (2.22 V E)

ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FOR IODINE-131 Milk or Water Two liters of sample are first equilibrated with stable iodide carrier. A batch treatment with anion exchange resin is used to remove iodine from the sample. The iodine is then stripped from the resin with sodium hypochlorite solution, reduced with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and extracted into toluene as free iodine. It is then back-extracted as iodide into sodium bisulr>te solution and is precipitated as palladium iodide. The precipitate is weighed for chemical yield and is mounted on a nylon planchet for low level beta counting. The chemical yield is corrected by m"asuring the stable iodide content of the milk or the water with a specific ion electrode.

GAMMASPECTROMETRY OF SAMPLES Milk and Water A 1.0 liter Marinelli beaker is filled with a representative aliquot of the sample. The sample is then counted for approximately 1000 minutes with a shielded Ge(Li) detector coupled to a mini-computer-based data acquisition system which performs pulse height analysis.
Dried Solids other than Soils and Sediments A large quantity of the sample is dried at a low temperature, less than 100'C. As much as possible (up to the total sample) is loaded into a tared 1-liter Marinelli and weighed. The sample is then counted for approximately 1000 minutes with a shielded Ge(Li) detector coupled to a mini-computer-based data acquisition system which performs pulse height analysis.
Fish As much as possible (up to the total sample) of the edible portion of the sample is loaded into a tared Marinelli and weighed. The sample is then counted for approximately 1000 minutes with a shielded Ge(Li) detector coupled to a mini-computer-based data acquisition system which performs piilse height analysis.
nile and  ediments Soils and sediments are dried at a low temperature, less than 100'C.
The soil or sediment is loaded fully into a=tared, standard 300 cc container and weighed. The sample is then counted for approximately six hours with a shielded Ge(Li) detector coupled to a mini-computer-based                  data acquisition system which performs pulse he~ght analysis.
Airborne Particulates The thirteen airborne particulate filters for a quarterly composite for each field station are aligned one in front of another and then counted for at least six hours with a shielded Ge(Li) detector coupled to a mini-computer-based data acquisition system which performs pulse height analysis.

A mini-computer software program defines peaks by certain changes in the slope of the spectrum. The program also compares the energy of each peak with a library of peaks for isotope identification and then performs the radioactivity calculation using the appropriate fractional gamma ray abundance, half life, detector efficiency, and net counts in the peak region. The calculation of results, two sigma error and the lower limit of detection (LLD) in pCi/volume of pCi/mass:

ENVIRONMENTALDOSIMETRY Teledyne Brown Engineering uses a CaS04.'Dy thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) which the company manufactures. This material has a high light output, negligible thermally induced signal loss (fading), and negligible self dosing. The energy response curve (as well as all other features) satisfies NRC Reg. Guide 4.13. Transit doses are accounted for by use of separate TLDs.
Following the field exposure period the TLDs are placed in a Teledyne Isotopes Model 8300. One fourth of the rectangular TLD is heated at a time and the measured light emission (luminescence) is recorded. The TLD is then annealed and exposed to a known Cs-137 dose; each area is then read again. This provides a calibration of each area of each TLD after every field use. The transit controls are read in the same manner.
Calculations of results and the two sigma error in net milliRoentgen (mR):

==SUMMARY==
OF EPA INTERLABORATORYCOMPARISONS 77
 
EPA    Interlaborato~ Comparison Program Teledyne Brown Engineering participates in the US EPA Interlaboratory Comparison Program to the fullest extent possible. That is, we participate in the program for all radioactive isotopes prepared and at the maximum frequency of availability. Beginning with 1996 the US EPA discontinued providing milk and air particulate filter samples. For replacements, we have purchased comparable spiked samples from Analytics, Inc.
In this section 1996 data summary tables are presented for isotopes in the various sample media applicable to the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant's Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. The footnotes of the table discuss 'investigations of problems encountered in a few cases and the steps taken to prevent reoccurrence.

(c)      Normalized dcviaUon from the known.
(d)      The variation was due to self-absorpUon properties of the EPA sample matrix. On future EPA water samples of this type, we will determine the overall alpha counting efficienc by spiking thc matrix with Th-230 fn accordance with their recent advisory.
(c)      To verify the cause for the deviation. a Cs-134 standard has been purchased. If thc Cs-134 cmcfcncy is lower than the efficiency at 604 KeV and 795 KeV, then rather than change those cfficicncics (which may be needed for other isotopes of comparable energies). the Cs-134 branching intensity shall be adjusted.
fn      Erroneously lo~ cerium yields were obtained in back-extraction from riuEHP. Greater care to bc taken during ~ 'k-extracUon. If this operation is incomplete. the cerium carrier yield becomes lower than the Ac-228 yield. The procedure had been revised to require additional back-cxtractions for longer periods of Ume to ensure that proper cerium carrier yields are obtained. The procedure is under review to determine if additional back-extracUons are required.
(pJ    Thc cause for the deviaUon could not be specffically determined. Samples were analyzed in triplfcate on three differen HPGe detectors providing results with good precision (less than l1% deviaUon). The values calculated by thc software for each discrete energy line of Ba-133-werc also in agreement indicaUng an excellent cfficicncy versus energy caifbraUon At. Use of a valid branching raUo in the calculaUon was verified. The iniUal aliquot was veriAed and the Co-60, Cs-134. and Cs-137 values were in excellent agreement with the known. A specific trend over Ume was not apparent in the data, however the normalized deviaUon calculated from the EPA appears to decrease as thc known activity increases. No corrective actions are anUcipated at this Ume. Future analyses will be monitored to idenUfy any potenUal trend toward an "out of control" condiUon.

APPENDIX E REMP SAMPLING AND ANALYTICALEXCEPTIONS 107
 
PROGRAM EXCEPTIONS AIR PARTICULATES On 01/24/96, at the South Bend air station, a strong wind gust blew the particulate filter from the sampler head and the filter was lost. An enhancement was added to the procedure, directing the user to pre-load sample heads or .change filters inside the vehicle if inclement weather conditions exist.
On 03/06/96, it was discovered that electric power was off at air stations ONS-5 and ONS-6.          A technician walked down the power line and discovered that  the line fuse was open.
On  08/14/96. the ONS-1 sample pump lost power. The'particulate and 12 samples were not obtained.
On 10/23/96. the ONS-2 pump was found with the breaker tripped.          The sample pump only ran for 34 hours.
On 11/06/96 the air particulate and 12 results from New Buffalo were considered invalid as the sample pump pulled an average of 7.6 LPM during the 7 day monitoring period.
On 1 1/13/96 power was lost at stations ONS-5 and ONS-6 due to a tripped fuse line. No particulate or 12 samples were obtained.
Throughout. the year, the air particulate gross beta results did not meet the ODCM LLD of.01 pCi/m~. This is consistent with historical results.
SURFACE WATER l
Winier icing conditions on Lake Michigan prevented surface water sample collections at beach locations (SWL-2 and SWL-3) from 01/01/96 to 03/31/96. Winter ice cleared and sampling resumed on 04/Ol/96.
Inclement weather prevented sample collection on 10/30/96 at locations SWL-2 and SWL-3. Beginning on 12/18/96 through the end of the year, surface water samples were not obtained from locations SWL-2 and SWL-3 due to the return of ice at the shoreline.
On  Ol/22/97 Teledyne Brown Eng. reported that the iodine-131 result for station SWL-3 was more than 1.0 pCi/liter (2.0 pCi/liter) in December. This was attributed to the decreased amount of sample water sent to the lab for analysis.
108
 
GROUND WATER On 01/26/96 well samples W1, W3, W4, W5, W6. W7, W8, W13, W14, SG-2, SG-4 and SG-5 were not collected due to inclement weather and electric power availability. However, all were subsequently sampled within the 25%
grace period.
Gross beta results from statiohs SG-1. SG-2, SG-4, and SG-5 on Ol/25.
04/25, 07/26, and 10/25/96 were higher than the ODCM LLD of 4.0 pCi/liter. This is consistent with historical data.
On  07/25/96, groundwater from well-14 measured a tritium result of 5,300 pCi/liter and on 10/25/96 the result from well-14 was 14,000 pCi/liter.
This exceeded the ODCM LLD of 2000'pCi/liter.
DRINKING WATER On several occasions the gross beta LLD failed to meet the ODCM LLD of 4.0 pCi/liter at the St. Joseph and Lake Township Facilities. This is consistent with historical information. It applies to composite samples from St.
Joseph: 02/02-02/14, 03/28-04/10, 04/25-05/08, 09/12-09/25 and IO/24-11/06. From Lake Township facility the composite samples were:
03/14-03/27. 06/20-07/03. and 08/15-08/28.
In addition, the Lake Township drinking water sample from 04/30/96 was not collected. The sample collector failed to obtain the sample. This was only the second incident of a missed drinking water sample since 1987 and the incident was attributed to water lab technician oversight.
BROADLEAF SAIVB'LES IN LIEU OF MILE SAMPLES During l996 no milk samples were obtained because two r,-'he three Indicator farms dropped from the program. No replacement farms could be located. Per the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, broadleaf samples were substituted in lieu of milk samples. Monthly broadleaf samples were not obtained during the first quarter of 1996 due to season unavailability. In April broadleaf sampling began.
In May it was discovered that. procedural directions, in the ODCM, indicating where to obtain the, indicator broadleaf samples were misinterpreted during April sample collection. Broadleaf samples had been obtained from the three highest D/Q land sectors instead of obtaining three indicator samples from the highest D/Q land sector. This was corrected for the May broadleaf samples.
Broadleaf cesium-.137 LLD results from station ONS-2 was 298.0 pCi/kg on 04/24/96 and 74.6 pCI/kg on 05/22/96. The ODCM LLD is 60 pCi/kg for cesium-137. All other gamma emitting radionuclides results met respective LLDs for May 1996.

On 10/09/96, the broadleaf cesium-137 result was ) 60 pCi/kg (70.4 pCi/kg) in sector A. The other two sample locations in sector IA showed results ( 60 pCi/kg.
Broadleaf samples were not obtained in November and December 1996 due to season unavailability.
FISH No fish were collected at location OFS-S on 05/31/96.
TLDs The transit does was not subtracted from totals for the third quarter TLDs.
The transit TLD was inadvertently not placed in the shielded TLD holder.

APPENDIX F 1996 LAND USE CENSUS
 
APPENDIX F
 
==SUMMARY==
OF THE 1996 LAND USE CENSUS The Land Use Census is performed to ensure that significant changes in the areas in the immediate vicinity of the plant site are identified. Any identified changes are evaluated to determine whether modifications must t
be made to the REMP or other related programs.        No such changes were identified during the 1996 Land Use Census. The following is a summary of the 1996 results.
Milk Farm Surve The milk farm survey is performed to update the list of milk farms located in the plant area, to identify the closest milk farm in each land sector, and to identify the nearest milk animal'hose milk is used for human consumption. The milk farm survey for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant was conducted on July 2. 1996.
In 1996 there were two deletions to the Michigan Department of Agriculture's list of dairy farms in Berrien County Michigan. One of the deleted farms had previously participated in the REMP Milk Sampling Program.
The pr'eviously identified milk animal, a goat owne~ by Sue Dorman continues to be 'he closest milk producing animal to the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant whose milk is used for human consumption. The closest edge of the animals pasture is 13,425 feet from the Plant's centerline axis.
ResidenQal Surve The residential survey is performed to identify the closest residence in each land sector surrounding the Donald C; Cook Nuclear Plant. The residential survey was completed on July 2, 1996. There was one new residential building permits issued by Lake Township during 1996. In addition a door-to-door survey was then conducted using a local area map.
The closest residence to the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant in each sector remains unchanged from the previous year.
112
 
Broadleaf~Surve In accordance with Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, broadleaf vegetation sampling is performed in lieu of a garden census.          Broadleaf sampling is performed to monitor for plant impact on the environment.
The samples are obtained at the site boundary. The broadleaf analytical results for 1996 were less than the Technical Specification LLDs.

==SUMMARY==
OF THE PRE-OPERATIONAL RADIOLOGICALMONITORING PROGRAM 118
 
~I SUlVQ~Y CF THE PRE<OPERATIONAL RADIOLOGICAL MONITORING PROGRAM A preoperational radiological environmental monitoring program was performed for the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant from August 1971 until the initial criticality of Unit 1 on January 18, 1975. The analyses of samples collected in the vicinity of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant were perfGrmed by Eberline Instrument Corporation. The summary of the preoperational program presented in this appendix is based on the seven semi-annual reports covering the period. The purpose of this summary is to provide a comparison of the radioactivity measured in the environs of the Donald C. Cook Nuclear Plant during the pre-start up of Unit 1 and the radioactivity measured in 1996.
As stated in the report for the period of July 1 to December 31.
1971 the purposes of a preoperational radiological monitoring program
      ~
include:
(a)  -To yield average values of radiation levels and concentrations of radioactive material in various media of the environment.
(b)  To identify sample locations      and/or types of samples that deviate from the averages.
(c)  To document seasonal variations that could be erroneously
              >t~rpreted when the power station is operating.
(d)  To indicate the range of values that should be considered "background" for various types of samples.
(e)  To "proof test" the environmental monitoring equipment and procedures prior to operation of the nuclear power station.
(h) To provide baseline information that will yield estimates of the dose to man, if any, which will result from plant operation."
The discussion t,hat follows is for the various sample media collected and analyzed in both the preoperational period and during 119
 
1996. Ana]yses performed during the preoperational but not required in 1996, are not discussed.
The gross beta activity in air particulate filters ranged from 0 0-'
0.17 pCi/m3 from the middle of 1971 to the'middle of 1973.
1973 and in June of 1974 the people's Republic of China detona<<d atmospheric nuclear tests. As a result there were periods during which the gross beta results were elevated to as high as 0.45 pCi/m 3 statistically significant differences between indicator and background stations. By the end of the preoperational period the values were approximately 0.06 pCi/m3.
The gamma ray ana]yses of composited air particulate filters showed "trace amounts" of fission products, Ce-144, Ru-106, Ru-103. Zr-95 and Nb-95, the resu]ts of fa]]out from previous atmospheric nuclear tests.
Cosmogenically produced bervllium-7 was also detected.
The direct radiation          background        as    measured      by thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD) ranged between 1.0 and nirem/week during the three and one-half years period.
Milk samples during ihe preop rational period were analyzed f<<
iodine-]3] and by gamma ray-spectroscopy (and for strontium-89 and strontium-90). All samples had naturally occurring potassium-40 with values ranging between 520 and 2310 pCi/liter. Cesium-137 was nie;isurcd in many samples after the two atmospheric nuclear tests nicntioned above. The cesium-137 activity ranged from 8 to 33 pCi/>><<r.
iodine-13] was measured in four milk samples collected July 9. 1974.
The values ranged between 0.2 and 0.9 pCi/liter.
Lake water samples were collected and analyzed for tritium>>d by gamma ray spectroscopy.      Trii.ium activities were below 1000 pCi/>><<r and typically averaged about. 400 pCi/liter. No radionuclides w<<e detected by gamma ray spectroscopy.
                                      ]20
 
Gamma ray spectroscopy analyses of lake sediment detected natural abundances of potassium-40, uranium,and thorium daughters, and traces of cesium-137 below 0.1 pCi/g which is attributed to fallout.
Gamma spectroscopy analyses of fish detected natural abundances of potassium-40 and traces of cesium-137, the latter attributed to fallout.
Drinking water analysis was not part of the preoperational program.

The program is based on the requirements of 10CFR50, Appendix B, Nuclear Regulatory Guide 4.15 and the program as described in Quality Assurance Manual IWL-0032-395 and Quality Control Manual IWL-0032-365.
All measuring equipment is calibrated for efficiency at least annually using standard reference material traceable to NIST. For alpha and beta counting, check sources are prepared and counted every day the counter is in use.
Control charts are maintained with 'three sigma limits specified. Control of the alpha-beta counting equipment is described in procedure PRO-032-27, "Calibration and Control of Alpha/Beta Counters". Backgrounds are usually measured at least once per week.
The gamma spectrometers are calibrated annually with a NIST traceable standard reference material selected to cover the energy range of the nuclides to be monitored and to include all of the geometries measured.
Backgrounds are determined every other week and check sources are counted weekly. The energy resolution and efficiency were plotted at two enerpv levels on charts and held within three sigma control limits. From January I, 1996 December 31, 1996 the energy levels were 59.5 and 1332 KcV. This -;oc.dure is described in PRO-042-44. "Calibration and Control of Gamma Ray Spectrometers".
The efficiency of the liquid scintillation counters is determined at least annually by counting NIST traceable standards which have been diluted in a known amount of distilled water and various amounts of quenching agent.
The procedure is described in PRO-052.-35. "Determination of Tritium by Liquid Scintillation". The background of each counter is measured with each batch of samples. A control chart is maintained for the background and check source measurements as a stability check.
P reparation  of carrier solutions and acceptability criteria are contained in procedure    PRO-032-49 "Standardization of Radio-chemical Carrier 123
 
Solutions". Preparation of efficiency calibration standards and check sources is described in procedure PRO-032-27, "Calibration and Control of Alpha/Beta Counters".
Results are reviewed before being entered into the data system by the Quality Assurance or Laboratory Manager, or supervisors for reasonableness of the parameters (background, efficiency, decay, etc.). Any results which are suspect,=being higher or lower than results in the past, are returned to the laboratory for recount. If a longer count,'ecay check, recount on another system or recalculation does not give acceptable results based on experience, a new aliquot is analyzed. The complete information about the sample is contained on the work sheet(s).
No deviations from  written procedures occurred during 1996.

0 APPENDIX I TLD QUALITYCONTROL PROGRAM 135
 
TLQ QUALITY'ONTROLPROGRAM Teledyne Brown Engineering performs an in-house quality assurance testing program for the environmental TLD laboratory. On a quarterly basis the QA manager or a qualified designate exposes groups of TLDs to three different doses using a known exposure rate from a cesium-137 source.
Typical exposures are between 20 and 80 mR. The TLDs are read on each of the three Model 8300 Readers in the environmental TLD laboratory and the calculated results are reported to the QA manager. The QA manager evaluates the results and writes a report discussing the performance of the laboratory.
