I. INTRODUCTION This report contains a complete tabulation of data for non-ODAM required sampling stations collected during the period January through December 2015 by Teledyne Brown Engineering- Environmental Services.
  . In assessing all the data gathered for this report, it was concluded that the operation of CNS had no adverse radiological impact on the environment, and there are no known active releases into the groundwater or surface water at Nebraska Public Power District.

II. Summary Data from the radiological analyses of environmental media collected during 2015 for non-ODAM required stations are tabulated and discussed below.
Radiological analyses of environmental media characteristically approach and frequently fall below the detection limits of state-of-the-art measurement methods. The "less than" values in the data tables were calculated from each specific analysis and are dependent on sample size, detector efficiency, length of counting time, chemical yield (when appropriate) and the radioactive decay factor from time of counting to time of collection. Teledyne Brown Engineering meets the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) requirements given in Table 2 of the USNRC Branch Technical Position, Radiological Monitoring Acceptable Program (November 1979, Revision 1).
The following is a discussion and summary of the results of the environmental measurements taken during the 2015 reporting period:

III. Results and Discussion of 2015 Analytical Results A. Airborne Particulates Gross beta activity was observed in all 52 of the samples collected during 2015.
The average concentration was 0.019 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.009 to 0.039 pCi/m3
* The results of the gross beta activities are presented in Table B-1. The gross beta activities for 2015 were comparable to levels measured in the previous several years. Prior to that period the gross beta activities were higher due to atmospheric nuclear weapons testing performed in other countries. The preoperational period of 1971through1974 averaged 0.098 pCi/m3 gross beta.
Air particulate filters were collected weekly and composited by locations on a quarterly basis. They were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. Beryllium-7 was observed in four of the four composites. The average concentration was 0.127 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.108 to 0.140 pCi/m3. The results are presented in Table B-2. All other gamma emitters were below the detection limits.
B. Airborne Iodine Charcoal cartridges used to collect airborne iodine were collected weekly and analyzed by gamma spectrometry for iodine-131. The results are presented in Table B-1. All results were below the required lower limit of detection.
C. Thermoluminescent Dosimeters Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) determine environmental radiation doses and the results are presented in Table B-3. Ambient radiation was monitored at 26 non-ODAM required locations and collected quarterly. The quarterly average for the locations was 24.4 millirem/quarter and a range from 21.6 to 27.1 millirem/quarter. The preoperational period of 1971 through 1974 averaged 37.0 millirem/quarter. Current year TLD averages deviate from the preoperational averages due to instrument variations from previous vendors.
The data from year to year is in good agreement and indicates no adverse changes in radiation exposure to the population near the Cooper Nuclear Station.
D. Errata Data There was no errata data for 2015.

I. INTRODUCTION This report contains a complete tabulation of data for non-ODAM required sampling stations collected during the period January through December 2015 by Teledyne Brown Engineering- Environmental Services.
  . In assessing all the data gathered for this report, it was concluded that the operation of CNS had no adverse radiological impact on the environment, and there are no known active releases into the groundwater or surface water at Nebraska Public Power District.

II. Summary Data from the radiological analyses of environmental media collected during 2015 for non-ODAM required stations are tabulated and discussed below.
Radiological analyses of environmental media characteristically approach and frequently fall below the detection limits of state-of-the-art measurement methods. The "less than" values in the data tables were calculated from each specific analysis and are dependent on sample size, detector efficiency, length of counting time, chemical yield (when appropriate) and the radioactive decay factor from time of counting to time of collection. Teledyne Brown Engineering meets the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) requirements given in Table 2 of the USNRC Branch Technical Position, Radiological Monitoring Acceptable Program (November 1979, Revision 1).
The following is a discussion and summary of the results of the environmental measurements taken during the 2015 reporting period:

SECTION III. RESULTS and Discussion of 2015 Analytical Results 8                                      I-9
III. Results and Discussion of 2015 Analytical Results A. Airborne Particulates Gross beta activity was observed in all 52 of the samples collected during 2015.
The average concentration was 0.019 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.009 to 0.039 pCi/m3
* The results of the gross beta activities are presented in Table B-1. The gross beta activities for 2015 were comparable to levels measured in the previous several years. Prior to that period the gross beta activities were higher due to atmospheric nuclear weapons testing performed in other countries. The preoperational period of 1971through1974 averaged 0.098 pCi/m3 gross beta.
Air particulate filters were collected weekly and composited by locations on a quarterly basis. They were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. Beryllium-7 was observed in four of the four composites. The average concentration was 0.127 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.108 to 0.140 pCi/m3. The results are presented in Table B-2. All other gamma emitters were below the detection limits.
B. Airborne Iodine Charcoal cartridges used to collect airborne iodine were collected weekly and analyzed by gamma spectrometry for iodine-131. The results are presented in Table B-1. All results were below the required lower limit of detection.
C. Thermoluminescent Dosimeters Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) determine environmental radiation doses and the results are presented in Table B-3. Ambient radiation was monitored at 26 non-ODAM required locations and collected quarterly. The quarterly average for the locations was 24.4 millirem/quarter and a range from 21.6 to 27.1 millirem/quarter. The preoperational period of 1971 through 1974 averaged 37.0 millirem/quarter. Current year TLD averages deviate from the preoperational averages due to instrument variations from previous vendors.
The data from year to year is in good agreement and indicates no adverse changes in radiation exposure to the population near the Cooper Nuclear Station.
D. Errata Data There was no errata data for 2015.

I. INTRODUCTION This report contains a complete tabulation of data for non-ODAM required sampling stations collected during the period January through December 2015 by Teledyne Brown Engineering- Environmental Services.

. In assessing all the data gathered for this report, it was concluded that the operation of CNS had no adverse radiological impact on the environment, and there are no known active releases into the groundwater or surface water at Nebraska Public Power District.

SECTION Il.

SUMMARY

6 1-7

II. Summary Data from the radiological analyses of environmental media collected during 2015 for non-ODAM required stations are tabulated and discussed below.

Radiological analyses of environmental media characteristically approach and frequently fall below the detection limits of state-of-the-art measurement methods. The "less than" values in the data tables were calculated from each specific analysis and are dependent on sample size, detector efficiency, length of counting time, chemical yield (when appropriate) and the radioactive decay factor from time of counting to time of collection. Teledyne Brown Engineering meets the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) requirements given in Table 2 of the USNRC Branch Technical Position, Radiological Monitoring Acceptable Program (November 1979, Revision 1).

The following is a discussion and summary of the results of the environmental measurements taken during the 2015 reporting period:

7 1-8

SECTION III. RESULTS and Discussion of 2015 Analytical Results 8 I-9

III. Results and Discussion of 2015 Analytical Results A. Airborne Particulates Gross beta activity was observed in all 52 of the samples collected during 2015.

The average concentration was 0.019 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.009 to 0.039 pCi/m3

  • The results of the gross beta activities are presented in Table B-1. The gross beta activities for 2015 were comparable to levels measured in the previous several years. Prior to that period the gross beta activities were higher due to atmospheric nuclear weapons testing performed in other countries. The preoperational period of 1971through1974 averaged 0.098 pCi/m3 gross beta.

Air particulate filters were collected weekly and composited by locations on a quarterly basis. They were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. Beryllium-7 was observed in four of the four composites. The average concentration was 0.127 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.108 to 0.140 pCi/m3. The results are presented in Table B-2. All other gamma emitters were below the detection limits.

B. Airborne Iodine Charcoal cartridges used to collect airborne iodine were collected weekly and analyzed by gamma spectrometry for iodine-131. The results are presented in Table B-1. All results were below the required lower limit of detection.

C. Thermoluminescent Dosimeters Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) determine environmental radiation doses and the results are presented in Table B-3. Ambient radiation was monitored at 26 non-ODAM required locations and collected quarterly. The quarterly average for the locations was 24.4 millirem/quarter and a range from 21.6 to 27.1 millirem/quarter. The preoperational period of 1971 through 1974 averaged 37.0 millirem/quarter. Current year TLD averages deviate from the preoperational averages due to instrument variations from previous vendors.

The data from year to year is in good agreement and indicates no adverse changes in radiation exposure to the population near the Cooper Nuclear Station.

D. Errata Data There was no errata data for 2015.

SECTION I. INTRODUCTION 4 1-5

I. INTRODUCTION This report contains a complete tabulation of data for non-ODAM required sampling stations collected during the period January through December 2015 by Teledyne Brown Engineering- Environmental Services.

. In assessing all the data gathered for this report, it was concluded that the operation of CNS had no adverse radiological impact on the environment, and there are no known active releases into the groundwater or surface water at Nebraska Public Power District.

SUMMARY

6 1-7

II. Summary Data from the radiological analyses of environmental media collected during 2015 for non-ODAM required stations are tabulated and discussed below.

Radiological analyses of environmental media characteristically approach and frequently fall below the detection limits of state-of-the-art measurement methods. The "less than" values in the data tables were calculated from each specific analysis and are dependent on sample size, detector efficiency, length of counting time, chemical yield (when appropriate) and the radioactive decay factor from time of counting to time of collection. Teledyne Brown Engineering meets the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) requirements given in Table 2 of the USNRC Branch Technical Position, Radiological Monitoring Acceptable Program (November 1979, Revision 1).

The following is a discussion and summary of the results of the environmental measurements taken during the 2015 reporting period:

SECTION III. RESULTS and Discussion of 2015 Analytical Results 8 I-9

III. Results and Discussion of 2015 Analytical Results A. Airborne Particulates Gross beta activity was observed in all 52 of the samples collected during 2015.

The average concentration was 0.019 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.009 to 0.039 pCi/m3

  • The results of the gross beta activities are presented in Table B-1. The gross beta activities for 2015 were comparable to levels measured in the previous several years. Prior to that period the gross beta activities were higher due to atmospheric nuclear weapons testing performed in other countries. The preoperational period of 1971through1974 averaged 0.098 pCi/m3 gross beta.

Air particulate filters were collected weekly and composited by locations on a quarterly basis. They were analyzed by gamma ray spectroscopy. Beryllium-7 was observed in four of the four composites. The average concentration was 0.127 pCi/m3 with a range of 0.108 to 0.140 pCi/m3. The results are presented in Table B-2. All other gamma emitters were below the detection limits.

B. Airborne Iodine Charcoal cartridges used to collect airborne iodine were collected weekly and analyzed by gamma spectrometry for iodine-131. The results are presented in Table B-1. All results were below the required lower limit of detection.

C. Thermoluminescent Dosimeters Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) determine environmental radiation doses and the results are presented in Table B-3. Ambient radiation was monitored at 26 non-ODAM required locations and collected quarterly. The quarterly average for the locations was 24.4 millirem/quarter and a range from 21.6 to 27.1 millirem/quarter. The preoperational period of 1971 through 1974 averaged 37.0 millirem/quarter. Current year TLD averages deviate from the preoperational averages due to instrument variations from previous vendors.

The data from year to year is in good agreement and indicates no adverse changes in radiation exposure to the population near the Cooper Nuclear Station.

D. Errata Data There was no errata data for 2015.
