==SUMMARY==


This Hydrogeologic Investigation Report (HIR) documents the results of Conestoga-Rovers & Associates' (CRA's) May 2006 Hydrogeologic Investigation Work Plan (Work Plan) pertaining to the Byron Ge nerating Station in Byron, Illinois. CRA prepared this HIR for Exelon as part of its Fleetwide Program to determine whether groundwater at and in the vicinity of its nuclear power generating facilities has been adversely impacted by any releases of radi onuclides. This report also documents the results of CRA's and the Byron Station's investigation beginning in January 2006 in relation to the current and former blowdown lines.
This Hydrogeologic Investigation Report (HIR) documents the results of Conestoga-Rovers & Associates' (CRA's) May 2006 Hydrogeologic Investigation Work Plan (Work Plan) pertaining to the Byron Generating Station in Byron, Illinois. CRA prepared this HIR for Exelon as part of its Fleetwide Program to determine whether groundwater at and in the vicinity of its nuclear power generating facilities has been adversely impacted by any releases of radionuclides. This report also documents the results of CRA's and the Byron Station's investigation beginning in January 2006 in relation to the current and former blowdown lines.
CRA collected and analyzed information on historical releases, the structures, components, and areas of the Station that have the potential to release tritium or other radioactive liquids to the environment and past hydrogeologic investigations at the Station. CRA used this information, comb ined with its understanding of groundwater flow and sample locations at the Station to identify the AFEs for the Station.
CRA collected and analyzed information on historical releases, the structures, components, and areas of the Station that have the potential to release tritium or other radioactive liquids to the environment and past hydrogeologic investigations at the Station. CRA used this information, combined with its understanding of groundwater flow and sample locations at the Station to identify the AFEs for the Station.
CRA collected 39 groundwater samples during the blowdown line investigation and 41 groundwater samples during the fleetwide investigation. CRA also collected two full rounds of water levels from the newly installed and existing wells. The Work Plan was completed in March and April 2006. All groundwater samples were analyzed for tritium, strontium-89/90 and gamma-emitting radionuclides.

2.2 OVERVIEW OF COOLING WATER OPERATIONS Operations at the Station began in 1985. The two nuclear reactors at the Station (Unit 1 and Unit 2) are both pressurized water reactors. The Station produces approximately 2,400 megawatts of electricity.
2.2               OVERVIEW OF COOLING WATER OPERATIONS Operations at the Station began in 1985. The two nuclear reactors at the Station (Unit 1 and Unit 2) are both pressurized water reactors. The Station produces approximately 2,400 megawatts of electricity.
Non-contact cooling water from the Rock River that is used in the electricity generation process is cooled through the Station's two cooling towers. The water is then recirculated through the flume and discharge d through the blowdown line back to the Rock River in accordance with an Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) National Pollution Discharge Elimi nation System (NPDES) permit (IL0048313) and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Operating Licenses, NPF-37 (Unit 1) and NPF-66 (Unit 2).

The blowdown line and make-up line were co nstructed adjacent to each other and follow a northwest and then westerly path from the Station for approximately 2 miles to the Rock River. At the Rock River, the make-up line is located approximately 300 feet upstream of the blowdown line. Along the le ngth of the two lines, there are six vacuum breaker (VB) locations (VB-1 through VB-6) for each line. The breakers are located within concrete vaults. There are two vaults at each breaker location, one for each line.
There are seven ponds in the northeast section of the Station. Six of these ponds are concrete-lined process catch basins and are aligned in an east-west trending series. These are referred to as the Treated Runoff ponds. The four western ponds collect water from the Station; the water from these four ponds is pumped to the waste treatment building for processing. The two eastern po nds collect rainwater from the storm water drain system; the water from these ponds is pumped to the Construction Run-off Pond (CROP) located north of the Treated Runoff ponds. The CROP is lined at the bottom with 1 foot of clay. Water from the CROP is eventually pumped back into the Station's cooling towers.
2.3 SURROUNDING LAND USE The land surrounding the Station in all directions is primarily farmland. Approximately 0.3 mile north of the Station property al ong the Rock River is a small residential subdivision named Rock Terrace. In addi tion, there are two small residential areas along the Rock River approximately 0.1 mile and 0.8 mile south of the Station property.
The Byron Salvage Superfund Site (Byron Salvage Site) is immediately to the north of the west portion of the Station along Razorville Road. The Byron Salvage Site is administered by United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Region 5. It was placed on the National Priorities List (NPL) in 1982 and has the USEPA identification number ILD010236230. The Byron Salvage Site consists of two separate properties:  the Byron Salvage Yard property and the Dirk's Farm property (see Figure 1.2). The Dirk's Farm property is currently owned by Exelon, and is a former farm located west of the Byron Salvage Yard property across Razorville Road.
Waste disposal at the Byron Salvage Site is known to have occurred on each of the two properties. From the mid 1960s to 1972, approximately 10 acres of the Byron Salvage Site were used as an automotive salvage yard and dump where miscellaneous waste 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 3 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 and debris were disposed. Such wastes and debris included drums of electroplating wastes and other materials including oil sludges, cutting wheels, solvents, scrap metal, and industrial wastes. Plating waste containi ng cyanide was sprayed onto roads as dust control at the Byron Salvage Site.
At the direction of Illinois EPA, from 1974 through 1976 Exelon's predecessor, Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) remove d the waste material from the Dirks Farm property. After 1976, ComEd continued monitoring the groundwater at the Dirks Farm property. Investigative and remedial actions were conducted at the Byron Salvage Yard portion of the Site beginning in 1983. Drums were present at the Byron Salvage Yard on the surface and buried underground. Hazardous wastes were found to contain lead, arsenic, cyanides, halogenated organics, zinc, nickel, and low concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Between 1986 and 1998, soil removal and cleanup


activities were conducted on the Byron Salvage Site. The Byron Salvage Site remediation is in the long-term groundwate r monitoring phase for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and cyanides. ComEd resolved its alleged liability for the Byron

The blowdown line and make-up line were constructed adjacent to each other and follow a northwest and then westerly path from the Station for approximately 2 miles to the Rock River. At the Rock River, the make-up line is located approximately 300 feet upstream of the blowdown line. Along the length of the two lines, there are six vacuum breaker (VB) locations (VB-1 through VB-6) for each line. The breakers are located within concrete vaults. There are two vaults at each breaker location, one for each line.

The Station is underlain by a veneer of overburden deposits that vary in thickness from less than 1 foot to approximately 12 feet and consist mainly of silty loam and loess, with


alluvial deposits near the Rock River. The predominant soil types at the Station are the Martinsville Silt Loam, the Whalen Loam, and the Lamont Sandy Loam (Ogle County, 2006). These three soil types consist of loamy soil with varying amounts of silt and sand, with slopes ranging from 2 to 18 percent (United States Department of Agriculture, 2006).

The distribution of the rock units that fo rm the bedrock surface within the region include a sedimentary sequence of Cambrian to Cretaceous-rocks and an igneous and metamorphic complex of Precambrian-aged rocks. The sedimentary sequence in northern Illinois near the Station includes Ordovician-aged and Cambrian-aged strata. These strata consist of 2,000 to 3,000 feet of dolomites, sandstones, and shales. The Precambrian basement in northern Illinois consists of granites and granodiorites (Bradbury and Atherton, 1965).

2.4.3 HYDROGEOLOGY Ordovician-age Galena-Platteville dolomite s and the older Ordovician-age Glenwood Formation and St. Peter Sandstone underlie the area. The most important aquifer in the region is the Cambrian-Ordovician Aquifer, ma de up of all bedrock between the top of the Galena-Platteville dolomites and the top of the Eau Claire Formation. These strata are, in descending order, the Ordovician-ag e Galena Formation, Platteville Formation, Ancell Formation (Glenwood, St. Peter, and older Cambrian formations), Prairie du Chien Formation, and Ironton and Galesville Sandstones. At the Bryon Station, the Galena-Platteville dolomites are separated from the rest of the Cambrian-Ordovician Aquifer by the Harmony Hill Shale Member of the Glenwood Formation. Available data indicate that, on a regional basis, the en tire sequence of strata above the Eau Claire Formation behaves hydraulically as one aquifer. In places, pressure heads between the water bearing units differ, and the hydraulic connection is imperfect.
Glenwood Formation (shale with sandy dolomite, semi-confining layer),
The Galena and Platteville Groups dolomites ar e extensively fractured near the top, with solutionally enlarged openings in places but become dense at depth. Water from the Galena-Platteville dolomites in the area is generally hard. Relatively low yields, water hardness, and susceptibility of the aquifer to contamination because of thin drift, fractures, and solution channels do not fa vor development of the Galena-Platteville dolomites.
St. Peter Sandstone Formation, and older Cambrian formations.
Below the Galena-Platteville dolomites are the thin shales, sandstones, and limestones of the Glenwood Formation. This unit grades downward into the thick sandstones of the St. Peter Sandstone. The Ordovician-age St. Peter Sandstone is permeable and has a relatively uniform lithology throughout the area. The St. Peter Sandstone is recharged from overlying glacial deposits in the centra l and western parts of northern Illinois, and also by vertical leakage through the Maquok eta Shale Group in northeastern Illinois and by through-flow from the outcrop area in southern Wisconsin (Buschbach, 1964).

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 7 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 2.4.3.1 EXISTING WELL NETWORKGroundwater (the water table) under the Station is first encountered within the Galena-Platteville limestones and dolomites.
The depth to the groundwater varies with the topography, ranging from approximately 17 feet below ground surface (feet bgs) to 115 feet bgs. Near the Rock River, the wate r table is in the unconsolidated deposits.
There are 77 wells at the Station. Figure 2.3 presents the locations of the wells. Of the 77 wells, the Station owns 33 wells and the remaining 44 wells are owned by the Byron Salvage Site PRP Group. A summary of the existing well information is provided in Table 2.1. These wells were used during th e investigations to provide information on the geology and groundwater levels at the Station.
The monitoring wells are set at different dept hs to screen all three hydrogeologic units located under the Station. CRA monitors the levels and water quality of the Byron Salvage Site wells at the Station as part of the long-term monitoring program for the Byron Salvage Site.
There are two deep wells in the Protected Ar ea (PA). The wells are designated Deep Well 1 and Deep Well 2 and are used for the Station's water supply (see Figure 2.3).
Both wells were installed during the construction of the Station and draw water from depths greater than 500 feet below grade at an average flow rate of 800 gallons per minute (gpm) per well. Water is pumped from each well at different times, and the


piping from the wells combines into a common manifold to supply the Station's water supply. There are two former farmhouse water supply wells on the Station. The wells are designated GW-9 and Well 7. During an investigation of the blowdown line, which began in early 2006 (refer to Section 3.3.2.2), 16 overburden monitoring wells and 13 bedrock wells were installed along the blowdown line and also within the PA. Further details regarding the most recent monitoring wells are provided in Section 3.4 of this report.
Revision 1 cross-sections of the area geology prepared from geologic information gathered from boreholes advanced prior to construction of the Station. The locations of the cross-sections are shown on Figure 1.2.
CRA expects most of the private wells in the vicinity of the Station are completed in the St. Peter Sandstone, however, well completi on information was not available for all private wells identified by CRA, in order to confirm this observation.
CRA has prepared hydrogeologic cross-sections depicting the geology and groundwater elevations under the Station. These figures are discussed in Section 5.0 of this Report.
045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 8 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 2.4.3.2 GROUNDWATER FLOW Groundwater flow in the Galena-Platteville dolomites occurs along joints and bedding planes. Solutioning along these pathways continues at an imperceptible rate due to the low solubility of the dolomite, the hardness of the groundwater, and the relatively low hydraulic gradient within the aquifer.
2.4.3              HYDROGEOLOGY Ordovician-age Galena-Platteville dolomites and the older Ordovician-age Glenwood Formation and St. Peter Sandstone underlie the area. The most important aquifer in the region is the Cambrian-Ordovician Aquifer, made up of all bedrock between the top of the Galena-Platteville dolomites and the top of the Eau Claire Formation. These strata are, in descending order, the Ordovician-age Galena Formation, Platteville Formation, Ancell Formation (Glenwood, St. Peter, and older Cambrian formations), Prairie du Chien Formation, and Ironton and Galesville Sandstones. At the Bryon Station, the Galena-Platteville dolomites are separated from the rest of the Cambrian-Ordovician Aquifer by the Harmony Hill Shale Member of the Glenwood Formation. Available data indicate that, on a regional basis, the entire sequence of strata above the Eau Claire Formation behaves hydraulically as one aquifer. In places, pressure heads between the water bearing units differ, and the hydraulic connection is imperfect.
The general regional groundwater flow direct ion in the Galena-Platteville dolomites and the underlying Glenwood Formation and St. Peter Sandstone is to the west toward the Rock River. Local groundwater flow condit ions are typically influenced by surface topography and aquifer thickness.
The Galena and Platteville Groups dolomites are extensively fractured near the top, with solutionally enlarged openings in places but become dense at depth. Water from the Galena-Platteville dolomites in the area is generally hard. Relatively low yields, water hardness, and susceptibility of the aquifer to contamination because of thin drift, fractures, and solution channels do not favor development of the Galena-Platteville dolomites.
Groundwater flow patterns vary under the Station property. In July 1974, the Station assessed groundwater flow using a system of wells and piezometers installed prior to Station construction. Since the facility si ts upon a bedrock high, groundwater flow directly beneath the facility was radially outward in all directions. Figure 2.4 presents the groundwater flow for the Station.
Below the Galena-Platteville dolomites are the thin shales, sandstones, and limestones of the Glenwood Formation. This unit grades downward into the thick sandstones of the St. Peter Sandstone. The Ordovician-age St. Peter Sandstone is permeable and has a relatively uniform lithology throughout the area. The St. Peter Sandstone is recharged from overlying glacial deposits in the central and western parts of northern Illinois, and also by vertical leakage through the Maquoketa Shale Group in northeastern Illinois and by through-flow from the outcrop area in southern Wisconsin (Buschbach, 1964).

Revision 1 2.4.3.1            EXISTING WELL NETWORK Groundwater (the water table) under the Station is first encountered within the Galena-Platteville limestones and dolomites. The depth to the groundwater varies with the topography, ranging from approximately 17 feet below ground surface (feet bgs) to 115 feet bgs. Near the Rock River, the water table is in the unconsolidated deposits.
There are 77 wells at the Station. Figure 2.3 presents the locations of the wells. Of the 77 wells, the Station owns 33 wells and the remaining 44 wells are owned by the Byron Salvage Site PRP Group. A summary of the existing well information is provided in Table 2.1. These wells were used during the investigations to provide information on the geology and groundwater levels at the Station.
The monitoring wells are set at different depths to screen all three hydrogeologic units located under the Station. CRA monitors the levels and water quality of the Byron Salvage Site wells at the Station as part of the long-term monitoring program for the Byron Salvage Site.
There are two deep wells in the Protected Area (PA). The wells are designated Deep Well 1 and Deep Well 2 and are used for the Station's water supply (see Figure 2.3).
Both wells were installed during the construction of the Station and draw water from depths greater than 500 feet below grade at an average flow rate of 800 gallons per minute (gpm) per well. Water is pumped from each well at different times, and the piping from the wells combines into a common manifold to supply the Station's water supply.
There are two former farmhouse water supply wells on the Station. The wells are designated GW-9 and Well 7. During an investigation of the blowdown line, which began in early 2006 (refer to Section 3.3.2.2), 16 overburden monitoring wells and 13 bedrock wells were installed along the blowdown line and also within the PA.
Further details regarding the most recent monitoring wells are provided in Section 3.4 of this report.
CRA expects most of the private wells in the vicinity of the Station are completed in the St. Peter Sandstone, however, well completion information was not available for all private wells identified by CRA, in order to confirm this observation.

Revision 1 2.4.3.2           GROUNDWATER FLOW Groundwater flow in the Galena-Platteville dolomites occurs along joints and bedding planes. Solutioning along these pathways continues at an imperceptible rate due to the low solubility of the dolomite, the hardness of the groundwater, and the relatively low hydraulic gradient within the aquifer.
The general regional groundwater flow direction in the Galena-Platteville dolomites and the underlying Glenwood Formation and St. Peter Sandstone is to the west toward the Rock River. Local groundwater flow conditions are typically influenced by surface topography and aquifer thickness.
Groundwater flow patterns vary under the Station property. In July 1974, the Station assessed groundwater flow using a system of wells and piezometers installed prior to Station construction. Since the facility sits upon a bedrock high, groundwater flow directly beneath the facility was radially outward in all directions. Figure 2.4 presents the groundwater flow for the Station.
On the western portion of the Station near the blowdown line, groundwater flow was historically assessed as part of the Byron Salvage Site remedial investigation. CRA measured water levels at the Byron Salvage Site monitoring wells on March 23, 2006.

Groundwater contours for the entire Station (both the blowdown line area and the generating facility), are shown on Figure 2.4 which presents a combined generalized contour map of the 1974 data (for the generating facility) and the March 2006 data (for the blowdown line area). There is a northwest/southeast trending groundwater divide near Razorville Road, west of the generating facility, and perpendicular to the blowdown line. The direction of groundwater flow at points along the blowdown line varies depending upon the location. However, the general groundwater flow direction is to the west toward the Rock River.

CRA's identification of AFEs in volved the following components:
Station inspection on March 21 and 22, 2006; interviews with Station personnel; evaluation of Station systems; investigation of confirmed and unconfirmed releases of radionuclides; and review of previous Station investigations.
CRA analyzed the information collected fr om these components combined with information obtained from CRA's study of hydrogeologic conditions at the Station to identify those areas where groundwater potentially could be impacted from operations


at the Station.
Revision 1 3.0        AREAS FOR FURTHER EVALUATION CRA considered all Station operations in assessing groundwater quality at the Station.
CRA then designed an investigation to dete rmine whether any confirmed or potential releases or any other release of radionuclid es adversely affected groundwater. This entailed evaluating whether existing Stat ion groundwater monitoring systems were sufficient to assess the groundwater quality at the AFEs. If the systems were not sufficient to adequately investigate groundwater quality associated with any AFE, additional monitoring wells were installed by CRA.

3.3.1 PRE-OPERATIONAL RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM A pre-operational REMP was conducted between 1981 and 1984 to establish background radioactivity levels prior to operation of th e Station. While a summary report for the pre-operational REMP was not available to CRA, CRA reviewed the pre-operational REMP data. An April 1987 REMP report prepared by Teledyne Isotopes Midwest Laboratory entitled "Radioactive Waste and Environmental Monitoring Annual Report 1986" identifies that a comparison of the 1985 and 1986 data to the pre-operational REMP data indicates that there was no meas urable amount of radioactivity due to the Station's operation.

Prior to CRA completing its analysis and determination of AFEs, Station personnel completed an exhaustive review of all historic and current management of systems that may contain potentially radioactively contaminated liquids.
Prior to CRA completing its analysis and determination of AFEs, Station personnel completed an exhaustive review of all historic and current management of systems that may contain potentially radioactively contaminated liquids.
CRA reviewed the systems identified by the Station, which have the potential for the release of radioactively contaminated liquids to the environment, and groundwater flow at the Station. This evaluation allowed CR A to become familiar with Station operations and potential systems that may impact grou ndwater. CRA then evaluated information concerning historic releases as provided by the Station. This information, along with a review of the results from historic investigations, was used to refine CRA's understanding of areas likely to have the highest possibility of impacting groundwater.

Finally, CRA used its understanding of known hydrogeologic conditions (prior to this investigation) to identify AFEs. Groundwater flow was an important factor in deciding whether to combine systems or historical rele ases into a single AFE or create separate AFEs. For example, groundwater beneath several systems that contain radioactively contaminated liquids that flows toward a common discharge point were likely combined into a single AFE. The AFEs were created based on known groundwater flow


conditions prior to the work completed during this investigation.
Revision 1 historical releases were combined into a single AFE. At times, during the Station investigation, separate AFEs were combined into one or were otherwise altered based on additional information and consideration.
Based upon its review of information concerning confirmed or potential historical releases, historic investigations, and the systems at the Station that have the potential for release of radioactively contaminated liqui ds to the environment combined with its understanding of groundwater flow at the Station, CRA identified three AFEs (see Figures 3.1 through 3.3).

Groundwater flow was an important factor in deciding whether to combine systems or historical releases into a single AFE or create separate AFEs. For example, groundwater beneath several systems that contain radioactively contaminated liquids that flows toward a common discharge point were likely combined into a single AFE. The AFEs were created based on known groundwater flow conditions prior to the work completed during this investigation.
AFE-Byron Former Fiberglass Blowdown Line This AFE is the area in which, in April 1986, after the initial six months of Unit 1 operation, there were three separate ruptures of the original fiberglass blowdown line. The three ruptures were all in the same area, near River Road (Figure 3.1). Soil and water samples collected as part of the in vestigation of each rupture indicated the presence of minimal amounts of radioactiv e material. Following the ruptures, the Station replaced sections of the fiberglass blowdown line. The Station subsequently abandoned the entire line in place and installed a new carbon steel blowdown line in 1987. AFE-Byron Vacuum Breaker Vaults In December 2005/January 2006, water was observed in the vacuum breaker vaults.

To evaluate the groundwater quality in the area of these systems, monitoring wells were installed in locations that are hydraulically downgradient of the AFE (Figure 3.3). The downgradient locations of the monitoring wells were selected based on the radial groundwater flow outward from the PA (Figure 2.4) due to the topographic high on which the PA was constructed. These monitoring well locations were situated to provide for adequate indication of histor ic releases and future leak detection.

Revision 1 locations at the Station to evaluate the quality of the groundwater in the areas of the three AFEs. The monitoring well locations are presented on Figure 2.3.
Monitoring wells TW-13 through TW-15 were installed to evaluate the groundwater quality near River Road, downgradient of the 1986 former fiberglass blowdown line ruptures (AFE-Byron-1). These wells were originally constructed as temporary wells, but were eventually converted to permanent monitoring wells.
Monitoring wells TW-13 through TW-15 were installed to evaluate the groundwater quality near River Road, downgradient of the 1986 former fiberglass blowdown line ruptures (AFE-Byron-1). These wells were originally constructed as temporary wells, but were eventually converted to permanent monitoring wells.
For AFE-Byron-2, at each of the six vacuum breaker vault locations along the blowdown line, two temporary wells were installed adja cent to the concrete vault and within the bedding material of the blowdown line and make-up line (TW-1 through TW-12). These shallow overburden wells were installed to determine whether groundwater was present in the overburden ma terials above the bedrock. These 12 temporary wells were dry. Twelve monitoring wells (AR-1 through AR-10, CAR-2, and CAR-3) were installed to screen the first occurrence of groundwater (the water table) within the Galena-Platteville limestones and dolomites. One well was placed adjacent to each vacuum breaker vault (AR-1 through AR-6) in an anticipated downgradient location as determined from historic groundwater elevations measured in the Byron Salvage Site monitoring wells and levels measured in early March 2006. Monitoring well CAR-2 was installed at a location at the bottom of the valley downgradient from the vault for vacuum breaker 4, which contained water with the highest concentrations of tritium. Five monitoring wells (AR-7 through AR-10 and CAR-3) were installed within and around the PA to evaluate the groundwater quality in the areas of the high-ranking systems (AFE-Byron-3).

Two additional monitoring wells were also installed. Monitoring well CAR-1 was screened in the alluvial sediments adjace nt to TW-14 to evaluate the groundwater quality approximately 20 feet below the wate r table. Due to detections of tritium concentrations in groundwater samples fr om monitoring well AR-4, monitoring well AR-11 was screened to monitor the groundwater quality at the base of the Galena-Platteville aquifer. In total, 13 be drock monitoring wells were constructed as part of the blowdown line investigation.

The bedrock monitoring wells were all installed using a combination of augering, coring, and air rotary drilling techniques. The monitoring wells with the AR designation were drilled using air rotary techniques, and the wells with the CAR designation were first cored prior to using rotary techniques. The coring was planned to be completed at three locations to confirm the geology that was already expected based on the drilling logs from the Byron Salvage Si te monitoring wells. The exception to the 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 20 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 nomenclature designation is monitoring well CAR-1. Because the bedrock was not encountered at the base of the hill near River Road, coring was not necessary, and CAR-1 was augered to the target depth.

CRA conducted this round of sampling March 7, 2006 to April 18, 2006. Most of the monitoring wells were sampled on more than one occasion during this time period.
Monitoring wells AR-11 and GW-9 were only sampled once. In addition, a total of 22 Byron Salvage Site monitoring wells were originally selected for sampling. However, Well 7 was not sampled because the old farmhouse pump and drop tube were still in the well and were not removed until April 2006, and well DF-13 could not be sampled due to an obstruction in the well that was later removed. CRA conducted the sampling using a combination of bailers and PVC and stainless steel submersible pumps, employing both slow purging and low flow purging techniques. A summary of the purging parameters is presented in Table 4.3, and a sample summary is presented in Table 4.4.
All groundwater samples were labeled with a unique sample number, the date and time, the parameters to be analyzed, the job number, and the sampler's initials. The samples were then packed in a cooler for screening by the Station and shipment to the project laboratory, Environmental, Inc., via overnight courier under chain-of-custody protocol for tritium analysis. Split samples were also collected for the NRC and Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) for tritium analysis simultaneously with the actual sample at every sample location. The split samples were delivered to the Station personnel for delivery to the NRC and IEMA.
The water purged from the Byron Salvage Site wells during the sampling event was placed into two plastic holding tanks at the Station pending characterization and disposal in accordance with the Station's NPDES permit.

This section also presents and evaluates the analytical results obtained from activities performed during the blowdown line and fleetwide investigations.
5.1 STATION GEOLOGY Bedrock under the Station is generally found within the top 10 feet, under a veneer of unconsolidated deposits, except near the Rock River, where the bedrock has been eroded and is encountered at deeper depths.

5.1               STATION GEOLOGY Bedrock under the Station is generally found within the top 10 feet, under a veneer of unconsolidated deposits, except near the Rock River, where the bedrock has been eroded and is encountered at deeper depths. The Station geology is consistent with the regional geology and is comprised of flat-lying Ordovician-aged dolomitic and sandstone layers progressing downward as follows:
* Galena Group Dolomites;
* Platteville Group Dolomites; and
* Ancell Group, consisting of:
Glenwood Formation (shale with sandy dolomite, semi-confining layer),
St. Peter Sandstone Formation, and older Cambrian formations.
The generating facility was constructed on an area of a 'bedrock high', and the foundation was installed into the bedrock.
5.2                STATION HYDROGEOLOGY There are two aquifers within the first 230 feet beneath the Station property:
* the upper aquifer is the Galena-Platteville aquifer consisting of Galena-Platteville limestones and dolomites; and
* the lower aquifer is the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer.
The Glenwood Formation separates the above two aquifers. The Glenwood contains shale at the top and sandy dolomite at its base. The shale acts as a semi-confining aquitard between the upper Galena-Platteville aquifer and lower St. Peter Sandstone 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station                  29                  CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES


sandstone layers progressing downward as follows:
Revision 1 aquifer. The first occurrence of groundwater (the water table) is encountered within the unconsolidated deposits near the Rock River, and within the upper fractured portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer in the upland areas, east of the Rock River.
Galena Group Dolomites; Platteville Group Dolomites; and Ancell Group, consisting of: Glenwood Formation (shale with san dy dolomite, semi-confining layer), St. Peter Sandstone Formation, and older Cambrian formations.
The monitoring wells at the Station were installed to monitor three intervals within the two aquifers (see Table 2.1):
The generating facility was constructed on an area of a 'bedrock high', and the  
* wells screened across the water table, either in the unconsolidated sediments near the Rock River or in the upper portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer;
* wells screened at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, just above the shale unit; and
* wells screened in the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer.
Figure 5.1 presents the locations of four hydrogeologic cross-sections prepared for the Station. The four cross-sections depict the relationship between the geology and measured groundwater elevations. Figure 5.2 presents an east-west cross-section parallel to the groundwater flow direction, along the blowdown line. Figure 5.3 presents a north-south cross-section perpendicular to the groundwater flow, through vacuum breaker 4 (VB-4). This location was chosen because water with the highest concentrations of tritium was encountered in the concrete vault at VB-4. Also indicated on Figures 5.1 through 5.3 are the approximate limits of the historical Byron Salvage Site groundwater plumes. Figure 5.4 presents two cross-sections through the PA, one trending to the northeast through Unit 2 and the other to the east through Unit 2.
5.2.1              GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTIONS CRA used a commercially available contouring program (Surfer, Version 8.02, 2002) to provide an initial contouring of the measured groundwater elevations. CRA then refined the initial contours, using professional judgment, to prepare final contour maps.
Figure 2.4 presents the water table groundwater contours in the upper portion of the Galena-Platteville aquifer based on data collected by CRA on March 23, 2006 for the blowdown line area, along with historical data collected in 1974 for the generating facility area. Figures 5.5 through 5.7 present the groundwater contours based on April 24, 2006 data for the upper portion of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, and the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, respectively.
The general groundwater flow direction in all three intervals is to the west toward Rock River. This is consistent with the regional flow pattern, which is to the west toward the 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station                  30                    CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES


foundation was installed into the bedrock.
Revision 1 Rock River, since the Rock River is the major water body in the area (UFSAR, 2004 and CRA, 2001).
5.2 STATION HYDROGEOLOGYThere are two aquifers within the firs t 230 feet beneath the Station property:
Within the upper portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, the direction of groundwater flow typically follows the topographic relief at points along the blowdown line. There is a northwest/southeast trending groundwater divide within the Former Dirk's Farm property, near Razorville Road, that is generally perpendicular to the blowdown line (Figures 2.4 and 5.5).
the upper aquifer is the Galena-Platteville aquifer consisting of Galena-Platteville limestones and dolomites; and the lower aquifer is the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer.
5.2.2              MAN-MADE INFLUENCES ON GROUNDWATER FLOW The PA sits upon a bedrock high, and as such, the groundwater beneath this area of the Station flows radially outward in all directions. The bedrock below the generating facility foundations was pressure grouted for structural reasons prior to constructing the foundation. The pressure grouting sealed the pore space of the bedrock, thus causing the groundwater to be observed at a deeper depth than that under normal conditions in AR-7. Therefore, the groundwater elevation from AR-7 was not used in the contouring of Figure 5.5.
The Glenwood Formation separates the above two aquifers. The Glenwood contains shale at the top and sandy dolomite at its base. The shale acts as a semi-confining aquitard between the upper Galena-Platteville aquifer and lower St. Peter Sandstone 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 29 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 aquifer. The first occurrence of groundwater (the water table) is encountered within the unconsolidated deposits near the Rock River, and within the upper fractured portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer in the upl and areas, east of the Rock River.
5.2.3              VERTICAL HYDRAULIC GRADIENTS CRA calculated vertical hydraulic gradients at the locations where depth specific wells were clustered together. Table 5.1 presents the calculated vertical gradients. Between the upper portion of the Galena-Platteville aquifer and the bottom of the aquifer, there is a slight downward vertical gradient of approximately 0.01 feet/foot. This is consistent with the effects of recharge from the higher/elevated areas of the Station and discharge to the Rock River. However, at the PC-3B/DF-6 well cluster location on the former Dirk's Farm property, the downward vertical gradient is greater, at 0.443 feet/foot. The vertical gradients measured within the Galena-Platteville aquifer are in the same range as the measured horizontal hydraulic gradient.
The monitoring wells at the Station were inst alled to monitor three intervals within the two aquifers (see Table 2.1):
There is only one cluster of wells in which both wells are screened within the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer: MW-20R and MW-21. The measured vertical hydraulic gradient at this well cluster is very low at 0.001 feet/foot. This suggests primarily horizontal flow within the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, which is consistent with the high conductivity of the St. Peter Sandstone.

the Rock River or in the upper portio ns of the Galena-Platteville aquifer; wells screened at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, just above the shale unit; and wells screened in the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer.
Revision 1 The groundwater elevation data confirm that the Galena-Platteville and St. Peter Sandstone aquifers are not hydraulically connected. The groundwater elevations measured in wells that are screened in the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer are typically more than 50 feet lower than those in wells screened at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer. Vertical hydraulic gradients between these two aquifers, measured at five well clusters, range between 0.622 feet/foot and 1.893 feet/foot, with the average being 1.127 feet/foot. These are much greater than the horizontal gradients measured in either of the two aquifers. These groundwater data provide evidence that the shale of the Glenwood Formation, which separates the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer from the underlying St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, is acting as a local aquitard or semi-confining unit.
Figure 5.1 presents the locations of four h ydrogeologic cross-sections prepared for the Station. The four cross-sections depict the relationship between the geology and measured groundwater elevations. Figure 5.2 presents an east-west cross-section parallel to the groundwater flow direction, along the blowdown line. Figure 5.3 presents a north-south cross-section perpendicular to the groundwater flow, through vacuum breaker 4 (VB-4). This location was chosen because water with the highest concentrations of tritium was encountered in the concrete vault at VB-4. Also indicated on Figures 5.1 through 5.3 are the approximate limits of the historical Byron Salvage Site groundwater plumes. Figure 5.4 presents two cross-sections through the PA, one trending to the northeast through Unit 2 and the other to the east through Unit 2.
5.2.4             LATERAL GROUNDWATER FLOW AND VELOCITY Across the more than two-mile distance between the generating facility and the Rock River, the water table elevation drops approximately 160 feet, creating a shallow horizontal hydraulic gradient of approximately 0.014 feet/foot. The limestones and dolomites that comprise the Galena-Platteville aquifer generally have hydraulic conductivities that can vary significantly; a study for the Byron Salvage Site immediately to the north of the west portion of the station, reported mean hydraulic conductivities ranging from 0.31 feet/day to 240 feet/day with a primary porosity of around 10 percent (Kay et al., 1997). With a gradient of 0.014 feet/foot, the average shallow horizontal groundwater flow velocity can be calculated to be 15.8 feet/year to 12,200 feet/year.
5.2.1 GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTIONS CRA used a commercially available contouring program (Surfer, Version 8.02, 2002) to provide an initial contouring of the meas ured groundwater elevations. CRA then refined the initial contours, using professional judgment, to prepare final contour maps. Figure 2.4 presents the water table groundwa ter contours in the upper portion of the Galena-Platteville aquifer based on data collected by CRA on March 23, 2006 for the blowdown line area, along with historical data collected in 1974 for the generating facility area. Figures 5.5 through 5.7 present the groundwater contours based on April 24, 2006 data for the upper portion of th e Galena-Platteville aquifer, the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, and the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, respectively.
The groundwater flow direction at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer has a southwest component, under a horizontal hydraulic gradient of approximately 0.011 feet/foot (Figure 5.6). However, the wells screened at the bottom of the aquifer are only located near the blowdown line, on the Former Dirk's Farm property, not across the entire length of the Station property. In this same area for the upper Galena-Platteville aquifer, the groundwater contours also suggest a component of flow to the southwest.
The general groundwater flow direction in all three intervals is to the west toward Rock River. This is consistent with the regional flow pattern, which is to the west toward the 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 30 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 Rock River, since the Rock River is the major water body in the area (UFSAR, 2004 and CRA, 2001).
In St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, the groundwater contours suggest a groundwater flow to the west toward the Rock River, under a low horizontal hydraulic gradient of approximately 0.001 feet/foot (Figure 5.7). This is consistent with expected regional groundwater flow within the lower aquifer.            Using the hydraulic gradient of 0.001 feet/foot with a reported hydraulic conductivity range of 2.0 feet/day to 8.7 feet/day (Kay et al., 1997) and a reported primary porosity of 0.14 (Kay et al., 1997) 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station              32                      CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES
Within the upper portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, the direction of groundwater flow typically follows the topographic relief at points along the blowdown line. There is a northwest/southeast trending groundwater divide within the Former Dirk's Farm property, near Razorville Road, that is ge nerally perpendicular to the blowdown line (Figures 2.4 and 5.5).
5.2.2 MAN-MADE INFLUENCES ON GROUNDWATER FLOWThe PA sits upon a bedrock high, and as such , the groundwater beneath this area of the Station flows radially outward in all directions. The bedrock below the generating facility foundations was pressure grouted for st ructural reasons prior to constructing the foundation. The pressure grouting sealed th e pore space of the bedrock, thus causing the groundwater to be observed at a deeper depth than that under normal conditions in AR-7. Therefore, the groundwater elevation from AR-7 was not used in the contouring of Figure 5.5.
5.2.3 VERTICAL HYDRAULIC GRADIENTS CRA calculated vertical hydraulic gradients at the locations where depth specific wells were clustered together. Table 5.1 presents the calculated vertical gradients. Between the upper portion of the Galena-Platteville aqui fer and the bottom of the aquifer, there is a slight downward vertical gradient of approximately 0.01 feet/foot. This is consistent with the effects of recharge from the higher
/elevated areas of the Station and discharge to the Rock River. However, at the PC-3 B/DF-6 well cluster location on the former Dirk's Farm property, the downward vertical gradient is greater, at 0.443 feet/foot. The vertical gradients measured within the Galena-Platteville aquifer are in the same range as the measured horizontal hydraulic gradient.
There is only one cluster of wells in which both wells are screened within the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer:  MW-20R and MW-21. Th e measured vertical hydraulic gradient at this well cluster is very low at 0.001 feet/foot. This suggests primarily horizontal flow within the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, which is consistent with the high conductivity of the St. Peter Sandstone.

The groundwater elevations measured in wells that are screened in the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer are typically more than 50 feet lower than those in wells screened at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer.

With a gradient of 0.014 feet/foot, the average shallow
Revision 1 yields an average horizontal groundwater velocity in the St. Peter Sandstone of 5.2 feet/year to 22.7 feet/year.
5.3                GROUNDWATER QUALITY During the blowdown line investigation and the fleetwide assessment, both CRA and Station personnel collected numerous samples from the vacuum breaker vaults and other Station locations, from nearby residential wells, from the blowdown line itself, from the on-Station CROP, and from a subset of the monitoring wells located on the Station property. As discussed in Sections 4.1 and 4.2, the samples were analyzed for tritium, and some of the samples were also analyzed for strontium-89/90 and additional radionuclides.
Table 5.2 presents a summary of tritium analyses for water samples collected by the Station from the vacuum breaker vaults, the beginning and end of the blowdown line, and the CROP. Table 5.3 presents a summary of tritium analyses for groundwater samples collected during both the blowdown line investigation and the fleetwide investigation. Table 5.4 presents a summary of tritium analyses for groundwater samples collected from residential water supply wells. Table 5.5 presents a summary of the other radionuclide analyses (strontium-89/90 and gamma-emitting radionuclides) for groundwater samples collected during both the blowdown line investigation and the fleetwide investigation.

horizontal groundwater flow velocity can be calculated to be 15.8 feet/year to 12,200 feet/year.
Revision 1 5.3.1            
The groundwater flow direction at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer has a southwest component, under a horizontal hydraulic gradient of approximately 0.011 feet/foot (Figure 5.6). However, the wells screened at the bottom of the aquifer are only located near the blowdown line, on the Former Dirk's Farm property, not across the entire length of the Station property. In th is same area for the upper Galena-Platteville aquifer, the groundwater contours also sugge st a component of flow to the southwest.
In St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, the groundwa ter contours suggest a groundwater flow to the west toward the Rock River, under a low horizontal hydraulic gradient of approximately 0.001 feet/foot (Figure 5.7). This is consistent with expected regional groundwater flow within the lower aquife
: r. Using the hydraulic gradient of 0.001 feet/foot with a reported hydraulic conductivity range of 2.0 feet/day to 8.7 feet/day (Kay et al., 1997) and a reported primary porosity of 0.14 (Kay et al., 1997) 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 32 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 yields an average horizontal groundwater velocity in the St. Peter Sandstone of 5.2 feet/year to 22.7 feet/year.
5.3 GROUNDWATER QUALITYDuring the blowdown line investigation and the fleetwide assessment, both CRA and Station personnel collected numerous samples from the vacuum breaker vaults and other Station locations, from nearby residential wells, from the blowdown line itself, from the on-Station CROP, and from a subset of the monitoring wells located on the Station property.

6.3.1 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS Tritium (chemical symbol H-3) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. The most common forms of tritium are tritium gas and tritium oxide, which is also called "tritiated water."

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 38 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 The chemical properties of tritium are essentially those of ordinary hydrogen. Tritiated water behaves the same as ordinary water in both the environment and the body. Tritium can be taken into the body by drinki ng water, breathing air, eating food, or absorption through skin. Once tritium enters the body, it disperses quickly and is uniformly distributed throughout the body.

Tritium is excreted primarily through urine within a month or so after ingestion. Organically bound tritium (tritium that is incorporated in organic compounds) can remain in the body for a longer period.
Tritium is produced naturally in the uppe r atmosphere when cosmic rays strike air molecules. Tritium is also produced during nuclear weapons explosions, as a by-product in reactors producing electricity, and in special production reactors, where the isotopes lithium-7 and/or boron-10 are bombarded to produce tritium.
Although tritium can be a gas, its most common form is in water because, like non-radioactive hydrogen, radioactive tritium reacts with oxygen to form water. Tritium replaces one of the stable hydrogen atoms in the water molecule and is called tritiated water. Like normal water, tritiate d water is colorless and odorless. Tritiated water behaves chemically and physically like non-tritiated water in the subsurface, and


therefore tritiated water will travel at the same velocity as the average groundwater velocity.
Revision 1 The chemical properties of tritium are essentially those of ordinary hydrogen. Tritiated water behaves the same as ordinary water in both the environment and the body.
Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12.3 ye ars. It decays spontaneously to helium-3 (3He). This radioactive decay releases a beta particle (low-energy electron). The radioactivity of tritium is the so urce of the risk of exposure.

Organically bound tritium (tritium that is incorporated in organic compounds) can remain in the body for a longer period.
Tritium is one of the least dangerous radionuclides because it emits very weak radiation and leaves the body relatively quickly. Since tritium is almost always found as water, it goes directly into soft tissues and organs.
Tritium is produced naturally in the upper atmosphere when cosmic rays strike air molecules. Tritium is also produced during nuclear weapons explosions, as a by-product in reactors producing electricity, and in special production reactors, where the isotopes lithium-7 and/or boron-10 are bombarded to produce tritium.
The associated dose to these tissues is generally uniform and is dependent on the water content of the specific tissue.

6.3.2 DISTRIBUTION IN STATION GROUNDWATER This section provides an overview of the lateral and vertical distribution of tritium found in groundwater beneath the Station.
Tritium replaces one of the stable hydrogen atoms in the water molecule and is called tritiated water. Like normal water, tritiated water is colorless and odorless. Tritiated water behaves chemically and physically like non-tritiated water in the subsurface, and therefore tritiated water will travel at the same velocity as the average groundwater velocity.
Tritium was only detected in groundwater at concentrations exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L near the vaults along the blowdown line. The groundwater under the PA does not appear to be impacted by tritium based on the groundwater analytical results from the five monitoring wells installed in and around 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 39 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 the PA (AR-7 through AR-10 and CAR-3) in locations that are hydraulically downgradient of Station systems. Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from these five monitoring wells during the investigation.
Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12.3 years. It decays spontaneously to helium-3 (3He). This radioactive decay releases a beta particle (low-energy electron). The radioactivity of tritium is the source of the risk of exposure.
Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in the water samples collected from the residential water wells. The St. Peter Sandstone is the primary aquifer for residential potable water in the area, and the water in the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer is separated from the wate r in the Galena-Platteville aquifer by the shale unit of the Glenwood Formation (see Section 5.1.2).

Tritium was only detected in groundwater at concentrations exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L near the vaults along the blowdown line.
Monitoring wells AR-2, AR-3, and AR-4 screen the water table, and AR-11 is screen ed at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer. These four locations are adjacent to the three vacuum breaker vaults VB-2, VB-3, and VB-4, that had water within the concrete vaults exhibiting the highest concentrations of tritium (see Figure 5.8).

The tritium concentrations detected in the groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells AR-2 and AR-3, which are near VB-2 and VB-3, are not much higher than 200 pCi/L. The concentrations in these two wells fluctuate, but are all less than 600 pCi/L. The detected tritium concentrat ions in the groundwater samples collected during the fleetwide investigation from monitoring wells AR-4 and AR-11 were 3,260 +/- 367 pCi/L and 2,340 +/- 282 pCi/L, respectively. These wells are near VB-4. AR-4 screens the water table, and AR-11 is deeper and screens the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer.
The original groundwater sample collected from TW-13 had a tritium concentration less than the LLD of 200 pCi/L; however, tritium was detected at a very low concentration, 201 +/- 110 pCi/L, in a duplicate groundwater sample collected as part of the fleetwide sampling event at the same time on the same date.

The highest concentrations of tritium detected in the Station sampling points were from water samples collected from within the va cuum breaker vaults along the blowdown line. The source of the tritium in the groundwater at the four wells is minor failures of the blowdown line vacuum breakers. This water originated from the blowdown line.

The water encountered in the vaults was pumped out and processed in accordance with the Station's NPDES permit.

Sources and Migration of Tritium The detections of tritium exceeding 200 pCi/L in monitoring wells AR-2, AR-3, AR-4, and AR-11 appear to be localized and confined to the areas around the wells. Tritium was not detected at the LLD of 200 pCi/L in the groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells and residential wells downgradient of these locations. The source of the tritium in the groundwater at these four well locations is the blowdown line vacuum breakers (AFE-Byron-2). Once in the subsurface, the tritiated water migrated downward through the unsaturated overburden and fractured bedrock to the water table. Once at the water table, downward vertical gradients caused the tritiated water to migrate downward to the base of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, where tritium was detected in the groundwater sample from monitoring well AR-11 (Figure 5.2).

Once at the water table, downward vertical gradients caused the tritiated water to migrate downward to the base of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, where tritium was detected in the groundwater sample from monitoring well AR-11 (Figure 5.2).

There is no indication from the HIR data that tritium-impacted groundwater in this area is migrating off the Station property.

Teledyne Brown reports all samples to their statistically-derived minimum detectable concentration (MDC) of approximately 150 to 170 pCi/L, which is associated with 95 percent confidence interval on their hardcopy reports. However, the laboratory uses a 99 percent (+/- 3-sigma) confidence range for determining whether to report the sample activity concentration as detected or not. This 3-sigma confidence range typically equates to 150 (+/- 135.75) pCi/L.

7.1 HEALTH EFFECTS OF TRITIUM Tritium is a radionuclide that decays by emi tting a low-energy beta particle that cannot penetrate deeply into tissue or travel far in air. A person's exposure to tritium is primarily through the ingestion of water (drinking water) or through ingestion of water bearing food products. Inhalation of tritium requires the water to be in a vapor form (i.e., through evaporation or vaporization due to heating). Inhalation is a minor exposure route when compared to direct ingestion or drinking of tritiated water. Absorption of tritium through skin is possible, but tritium exposure is more limited here versus direct ingestion or drinking of tritiated water.

CONCENTRATIONS OF TRITIUM The purpose of the following paragraphs is to establish a background concentration through review of various media.
7.2.1 GROUNDWATERTritium is created in the environment from naturally occurring processes both cosmic and subterranean, as well as from anthropogenic (i.e., man-made) sources. In the upper atmosphere, "cosmogenic" tritium is produced from the bombardment of stable nuclides and combines with oxygen to form tritiated water, which will then enter the hydrologic cycle. Below ground, "lithogenic" tritium is produced by the bombardment of natural lithium isotopes 6Li (92.5 percent abundance) and 7Li (7.5 percent abundance) present in crystalline rocks by neutrons produced by the radioactive decay of uranium and thorium. Lithogenic production of tritiu m is usually negligible compared to other sources due to the limited abundance of lit hium in rock. The lithogenic tritium is introduced directly to groundwater.

A major anthropogenic source of tritium come s from the former atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Levels of tritium in precipitation increased during the 1950s and early 1960s, coinciding with the release of significant amounts of tritium to the atmosphere during nuclear weapons testing pr ior to the signing of the Limited Test Ban Treaty in 1963, which prohibited atmospheric nuclear tests.

7.2.2 PRECIPITATION DATAPrecipitation samples are routinely collected at stations around the world for the analysis of tritium and other radionuclides. Two publicly available databases that provided tritium concentrations in precipit ation are Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP) and USEPA's RadNet database. GNIP provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected world wide from 1960 to 2006.

Based on GNIP data for sample stations loca ted in the U.S. Midwest including Chicago, St. Louis and Madison, Wisconsin, as well as Ottawa Ontario, and data from the University of Chicago, tritium concentratio ns peaked around 1963. This peak, which approached 10,000 pCi/L for some stations, coincided with the atmospheric testing of 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 44 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 thermonuclear weapons. Tritium concentrat ions showed a sharp decline up until 1975 followed by a gradual decline since that time. Tritium concentrations in Midwest precipitation have typically been less than 100 pCi/L since around 1980.

The RadNet database for several stations in the U.S. Midwest (Chicago, Columbus, Indianapolis, Lansing, Madison, Minneapolis , Painesville, Toledo, and Welsch, MN) did not show the same trend, which can be attributed to pre-1995 data handling procedures. The pre-1995 data were rounded to the nearest 100 pCi/L, which damped out variances in the data. The post-1995 RadNet data, where rounding was not applied, exhibit much more scatter, and similar to the GNIP data, the vast majority of the data were less than 100 pCi/L.
 
CRA constructed a non-parametric upper tolerance limit with a confidence of 95 percent and a coverage of 95 percent based on RadNet data for USEPA Region 5 from 2004 to 2005. The resulting upper tolerance limit is 133 pCi/L, which indicates that CRA is 95 percent confident that 95 percent of the ambient precipitation concentration results are less than 133 pCi/L. The statistical confidence, however, must be compared with the limitations of the underlying RadNet data, which does not include the minimum detectable concentration for a majority of th e measurements. Some of the RadNet values less than 200 pCi/L may be approximated. Nevertheless, these results show a background contribution for precipitation of up to 133 pCi/L.

7.2.3 SURFACE WATER DATATritium concentrations are routinely measured in large surface water bodies, including Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River. Surface water data from the RadNet database for Illinois sampling stations include East Moline (Mississippi River), Moline (Mississippi River), Marseilles (Illinois Rive r), Morris (Illinois River), Oregon (Rock River), and Zion (Lake Michigan). As is the case for the RadNet precipitation data, the pre-September 1995 Illinois surface water data was rounded to the nearest 100 pCi/L, creating a dampening of variances in the data. The post-1995 Illinois surface water data, similar to the post-1995 Midwest precipitation data, were less than 100 pCi/L with the exception of the Moline (Mississippi River) station. Tritium surface water concentrations at this location varied between 100 and 800 pCi/L, which may reflect local natural or anthropogenic inputs.
The RadNet database for several stations in the U.S. Midwest (Chicago, Columbus, Indianapolis, Lansing, Madison, Minneapolis, Painesville, Toledo, and Welsch, MN) did not show the same trend, which can be attributed to pre-1995 data handling procedures.
Recent surface water measurements for tr itium sampling locations upstream of the Quad Cities Generating Station show that concentrations in the Mississippi River are consistently less than 200 pCi/L (Exelon, 2005).
The pre-1995 data were rounded to the nearest 100 pCi/L, which damped out variances in the data. The post-1995 RadNet data, where rounding was not applied, exhibit much more scatter, and similar to the GNIP data, the vast majority of the data were less than 100 pCi/L.
045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 45 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 These results indicate that there is a backgr ound tritium concentration in surface water that is typically less than 100 pCi/L, but have approached 800 pCi/L in the Mississippi River. The USEPA RadNet surface water data typi cally has a reported "Combined Standard Uncertainty" of 35 to 50 pCi/L. According to USEPA, this corresponds to a +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L 95 percent confidence bound on each given measurement. Therefore, the typical background data provided may be subject to measurement uncertainty of approximately +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L.

Revision 1 These results indicate that there is a background tritium concentration in surface water that is typically less than 100 pCi/L, but have approached 800 pCi/L in the Mississippi River.
The USEPA RadNet surface water data typically has a reported "Combined Standard Uncertainty" of 35 to 50 pCi/L.       According to USEPA, this corresponds to a
            +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L 95 percent confidence bound on each given measurement. Therefore, the typical background data provided may be subject to measurement uncertainty of approximately +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L.
7.2.4             DRINKING WATER DATA Tritium concentrations in drinking water from the RadNet database for three Illinois sampling stations (Chicago, Morris, and East Chicago) exhibit similar trends as the precipitation and surface water data. As with the precipitation and surface water data, the pre-1995 data has dampened out variances due to rounding the data to the nearest 100 pCi/L. The post-1995 results show tritium concentrations in drinking water well less than 100 pCi/L and the tritium concentrations found in precipitation and surface water.
7.2.5              EXPECTED TRITIUM BACKGROUND FOR THE STATION As reported in the GNIP and RadNet databases, tritium concentrations in U.S. Midwest precipitation have typically been less than 100 pCi/L since 1980. Tritium concentrations reported in the RadNet database for Illinois surface water and groundwater, at least since 1995, have typically been less than 100 pCi/L. Based on the USEPA Region 5's 2004 to 2005 RadNet precipitation data, 95 percent of the ambient concentrations of tritiated water in Illinois are expected to be less than 133 pCi/L, based on a 95 percent confidence limit. Tritium concentrations in surface water and drinking water are expected to be comparable or less based on historical data and trends.
Concentrations in groundwater similar to surface water and drinking water are expected to be less as compared to precipitation values. The lower groundwater concentrations are related to the age of the groundwater as compared to the half-life of tritium. Deep aquifers in proximity to crystalline basement rock, however, potentially can also show elevated concentrations of tritium due to lithogenic sources.

sampling stations (Chicago, Morris, and East Chicago) exhibit similar trends as the precipitation and surface water data. As with the precipitation and surface water data, the pre-1995 data has dampened out variances due to rounding the data to the nearest 100 pCi/L. The post-1995 results show tritiu m concentrations in drinking water well less than 100 pCi/L and the tritium concentrat ions found in precipitation and surface water. 7.2.5 EXPECTED TRITIUM BACKGROUND FOR THE STATION As reported in the GNIP and RadNet databases, tritium concentrations in U.S. Midwest precipitation have typically been less than 100 pCi/L since 1980.

Tritium concentrations in surface water and drinking water are expected to be comparable or less ba sed on historical data and trends.

The following section provides an overview of each of these three potential exposure pathways for tritium in groundwater.
The following section provides an overview of each of these three potential exposure pathways for tritium in groundwater.
7.3.1 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO DRINKING WATER USERS AT THE STATION PROPERTY At the Station, the tritium detected in groundwater samples has been isolated to the Galena-Platteville aquifer, which is isolat ed from the deeper regional groundwater aquifer by the semi-confining Glenwood Formation. Groundwater quality data from production wells and monitoring wells at the Station located below this aquitard do not indicate concentrations of tritium greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L. As such, the tritium impact is limited to the Galena-Platteville aquifer. There are no water supply wells located on the Station property that draw water from the Galena-Platteville aquifer. The Station receives its potable water from two cased 1,500-foot bedrock wells on the Site, which are installed in the Ir onton-Galesville Sandstone. The vertical movement of tritiated water from the Galena-Platteville aquifer into deeper formations is restricted by the semi-confining Glenwood Formation. Since vertical migration of tritiated water through the Glenwood Formation to the Ironton-Galesville Aquifer is 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 47 C ONESTOGA-R OVERS & A SSOCIATES Revision 1 restricted but theoretically not eliminated, this is a potentially complete exposure pathway but there is no current risk fo r groundwater ingestion at the Station.

7.3.2 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO DRINKING WATER USERS OFF THE STATION PROPERTY Based on the results of the investigations and the conceptual model, the only potentially complete exposure route (pathway) for tritiate d water at the Station is ingestion of the groundwater at nearby private water supply wells. However, due to low permeabilities of the limestones and dolomites of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, along with the general hardness of the water, this aquifer is typically not used for potable water in the area.
 
The St. Peter Sandstone is the primary source for potable water in the area. The St. Peter Sandstone aquifer is separated from the Galena-Platteville aquifer by a low permeability shale of the Glenwood Formation. Residential water wells that are both off the Station property and in the direction of groundwa ter flow downgradient from the blowdown line typically obtain water from the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer. These water wells were sampled and were not impacted. In addition, none of the groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells near the property line contained tritium at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L. Therefore, although there is a potentially complete exposure pathway, there is no current risk of exposure associated with groundwater ingestion off the Station property.
Revision 1 restricted but theoretically not eliminated, this is a potentially complete exposure pathway but there is no current risk for groundwater ingestion at the Station.
7.3.3 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO SURFACE WATER USERS Groundwater does not discharge to the local surface water drainages (ephemeral creeks) and the nearest wells located adjacent to the Rock River have not contained tritium.

S Based on all of the studies completed to date at the Station, CRA concludes:
Groundwater Flow There are two groundwater aquifers within the first 230 feet beneath the Station: the Galena-Platteville aquifer (upper aquifer) and the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer (lower aquifer). The two aquifers are separated by a semi-confining shale layer of the Glenwood Formation and, therefore, not hydraulically connected under the Station. Groundwater (the water table) is first encountered in the upper fractured portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer. Near the Rock River, the bedrock has been eroded, and the water table is in unconsolidated alluvial material. The general direction of groundwater flow in both aquifers is to the west toward the Rock River. The groundwater flows radially away from the facility. The horizontal gradient in the Galena-Platteville aquifer is shallow. There is a slight downward vertical gradient between the upper portion and bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer.

Groundwater Quality Tritium concentrations in groundwater were not detected at concentrations greater than the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in samples collected from the five monitoring wells located in the PA. Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in 35 of the 39 groundwater samples collected.

* The shale unit of the Glenwood Formation has a low permeability and acts as a barrier to further downward migration of impacted water down to the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer. Due to the low permeabilities of the Galena-Platteville limestones/dolomites combined with the shallow gradient of the water table, the tritiated water in the Galena-Platteville aquifer will not migrate very far laterally from the VB-2, VB-3, and VB-4 areas.
* Tritiated groundwater at the Station is isolated in three areas, and the evidence indicates that it is not migrating off Station property. This is based upon the inferred slow groundwater flow velocities and that groundwater sampling results indicate that monitoring wells outside of these three areas are not impacted. The unimpacted wells include: monitoring wells located hydraulically downgradient, monitoring wells located at the property line, and residential water wells. The tritium detected in groundwater is not the result of large failures of the blowdown line, but of minor failures of the vacuum breaker valves to re-seat during blowdown line discharge events. No knowledge or evidence of large failures of or releases from the blowdown line have been documented or identified through the investigations.

1.0                  Knoxville QAM Section Introduction This Quality Assurance Manual (QAM) and related Procedures describes the Knoxville Environmental Services Laboratorys QA system. This system is designed to meet multiple quality standards imposed by Customers and regulatory agencies including:
NRCs 10 CFR 50 Appendix B NRCs Regulatory Guide 4.15 DOEs Order 414.1 DOEs QSAS ANSI N 42.23 ANSI N 13.30 NELAC Standard, Chapter 5 The Environmental Services (ES) Laboratory does low level radioactivity analyses for Power Plants and other customers. It primarily analyzes environmental samples (natural products from around plants such as milk), in-plant samples (air filters, waters), bioassay samples from customers employees, and waste disposal samples (liquids and solids).
Potable and non-potable water samples are tested using methods based on EPA standards as cited in State licenses (see Procedure 4010). The listing [current as of initial printing of this Manual - see current index for revision status and additions / deletions] of implementing Procedures (SOPs) covering Administration, Methods, Counting Instruments, Technical, Miscellaneous, and LIMS is shown in Table 1-1. Reference to these Procedures by number is made throughout this QAM.

4.0 PERSONNEL ORIENTATION, DATA INTEGRITY, TRAINING, AND QUALIFICATION 4.1     Orientation All laboratory personnel must receive orientation to the quality program if their work can affect quality. Orientation includes a brief review of customer- and regulatory agency-imposed quality requirements, the structure of the QAM, and the implementing procedures. The goal of orientation is to cover the nature and goals of the QA program.
4.2    Data Integrity The primary output of the Laboratory is data. Special emphasis and training in data integrity is given to all personnel whose work provides or supports data delivery. The Laboratory Data Integrity Procedure (Procedure 1005) describes training, personnel attestations, and monitoring operations. Annual reviews are required.
4.3    Training The Quality Assurance Manager (QAM) maintains a training matrix indicating which laboratory personnel need training in which specific Procedures. This matrix is updated when personnel change or change assignments. All personnel are trained per these requirements and procedures. This training program is described in Procedure 1007. The assigned responsibilities for employees are described in Procedure 1002 (See Section 3.0) on Organization and in Procedure 1006, Job Descriptions. Refresher training or re-training is given annually as appropriate.
4.4    Qualification Personnel are qualified as required by their job description. Management and non-analysts are evaluated based on past experience, education, and managements assessment of their capabilities. Formal qualification is required of analysts and related technical personnel who perform laboratory functions. Each applicable person is given training and then formally evaluated by the Operations Manager (or his designees) and by QA. Each analyst must initially demonstrate capability to perform each assigned analytical effort. Each year, thereafter, he or she must perform similar analyses on Interlab Comparison Samples (see Procedure 4006) or on equivalent blanks and spikes samples. Acceptable results extend qualifications (certification). Unacceptable results require retraining in the subject method / Procedures. (See Procedure 1007 for added information, records, forms, etc. used.)
4.5    Records Records of training subjects,        contents,   attendees,   instructorsand certifications are maintained by QA.

5.0    CUSTOMER INTERFACES 5.1     Interface Personnel The Laboratory has designated Program Managers as the primary interface with all customers. Other interfaces may be the QA Manager or the Lab Operations Manager.
4.2 Data Integrity The primary output of the Laboratory is data. Special emphasis and training in data integrity is given to all personnel whose work provides or supports data delivery. The Laboratory Data Integrity Procedure (Procedure 1005) describes training, personnel attestations, and monitoring operations. Annual reviews are required.
5.2    Bid Requests and Tenders The Program Managers respond to customer requests for bids and proposals per Procedure 1014 for bids, proposals, and contract reviews. They clarify customer requests so both the customer and the lab staff understand requests. As responses are developed, internal reviews are conducted to ensure that requirements are adequately defined and documented and to verify that the Laboratory has adequate resources in physical capabilities, personal skills, and technical information to perform the work. Accreditation needs are reviewed. If subcontracts are required to perform any analysis, the subcontractor is similarly evaluated and the client notified in writing of the effort. Most qualifications are routine with standard pricing and the review of these quotes is performed by the Program Manager. Larger or more complex quotes are reviewed by the Operations Manager and the QA Manager (or designees). Evidence of review is by initialing and dating applicable papers, signatures on quotations, or by memo.
4.3 Training The Quality Assurance Manager (QAM) maintains a training matrix indicating which laboratory personnel need training in which specific Procedures. This matrix is updated when personnel change or change assignments. All personnel are trained per these requirements and procedures. This training program is described in Procedure 1007. The assi gned responsibilities for employees are described in Procedure 1002 (See Section 3.0) on Organization and in Procedure 1006, Job Descriptions. Refresher training or re-tra ining is given annually as appropriate.
5.3     Contracts The Program Managers receive contract awards (oral or written) and generate the work planning for initiation preparation (charge numbers, data structure or contents in LIMS, etc.). They review contracts for possible differences from quotations and, if acceptable, contracts are processed. Documentation of the review is by initials and date as a minimum. Contract changes receive similar reviews and planning.
4.4 Qualification Personnel are qualified as required by their job description. Management and non-analysts are evaluated based on past experience, education, and management's assessment of their capabilities.

Page 16 of 32 6.0 DOCUMENTATION GENERATION & CONTROL
Page 15 of 32
 
6.1 General The documentation generation and control system is detailed in Procedure 1008. An overview is given below. The basic quality system documents are described in Section 2.0.
6.2 New Documentation Each Procedure and this QAM is written by appropriate personnel, validated if applicable (see Section 7.0), reviewed for adequacy, completeness, and correctness, and, if acceptable, accepted by the authorized approver [QA Manager, Operations Manager (or their designee)]. Both approvals are required if a Procedure affects both QA and Operations.  (See Responsibilities in Section 3.0). These procedures control the quality m easurements and their accuracy.
 
Each document carries a unique identification number, a revision level, dates, page numbers and total page count, and approver identification and sign off. If TBE writes code for software, the software is version identified and issued after Verification and Valida tion per Section 7.0.
6.3 Documentation Changes Each change is reviewed in the same manner and by the same people as new documentation. Revision identifications are updated and changes indicated by side bars, italicized words, or by revision description when practical. Obsolete revisions are maintained by QA after being identified as obsolete.
6.4 Documentation Lists and Distributions Computer indexes of documents are maintained by Quality showing the current authorized revision level of each document. These revisions are placed on the Laboratory server and obsolete ones are removed so that all personnel have only the current documents. If hard copies are produced and distributed, separate distribution lists are maintained indicating who has them and their revision level(s). Copies downloaded off the server are uncontrolled unless verified by the user (on the computer) to be the latest revision.
6.5 Other Documentation In addition to TBE-generated documentation, QA maintains copies of applicable specifications, regul ations, and standard methods.
6.6 Documentation Reviews Each issued document is reviewed at least every third year by the approving personnel. This review determines continued suitability for use and compliance with requirements.
Page 17 of 32 7.0 DESIGN OF LABORATORY CONTROLS
 
7.1  General The Laboratory and its operating procedures are designed specifically for low level (environmental and in-plant) radioactive sample analysis. The various aspects of the laboratory design include the following which are discussed in subsequent paragraphs of this Section:


(a) Facility (b) Technical Processes and Methods (c) Verification of Design of Pr ocesses, Methods, and Software. (d) Design of Quality Controls (e) Counting Instrument Controls 7.2  Facility The facility was designed and built in 2000 to facilitate correct performance of operations in accordance with good laboratory practices and regulatory requirements. It provides security for operations and samples. It separates sample storage areas based on activity levels, separates wet chemistry from counting instrumentation for contamination control, and provides space and electronic systems for documentation, analysis, and record storage. Procedure 4014 describes the facility, room us es, layouts, etc.
6.0    DOCUMENTATION GENERATION & CONTROL 6.1    General The documentation generation and control system is detailed in Procedure 1008. An overview is given below. The basic quality system documents are described in Section 2.0.
7.3  Technical Processes and Methods 7.3.1  Operational Flow The laboratory design provides for sample receipt and storage (including special environmental provisions for perishable items) where samples are received from clients and other labs (see Section 9.0). The samples are logged into the computer based Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and receive unique identification numbers and bar code labels. (See Procedure 4017 for LIMS description and user procedures). The Program Managers then plan the work and assure LIMS contains any special instructions to analysts. Samples then go to sample preparation, wet chemistry (for chemical separation), and counting based on the radionuclides. See Procedures in the 2000 and 3000 series. Analysts perform the required tasks with data being entered into logbooks, LIMS, and counting equipment data systems as appropriate. Results are collected and reviewed by the Operations Manager and Program Managers and reports to clients are generated (See Section 14.0). All records (electronic or hard copy) are maintained in files or in back-up electronic copies (see Section 15.0). After the required hold periods and client notification and approval, samples are disposed of in compliance with regulatory requirements (s ee Procedures 5003 and 5004).  
6.2    New Documentation Each Procedure and this QAM is written by appropriate personnel, validated if applicable (see Section 7.0), reviewed for adequacy, completeness, and correctness, and, if acceptable, accepted by the authorized approver [QA Manager, Operations Manager (or their designee)]. Both approvals are required if a Procedure affects both QA and Operations. (See Responsibilities in Section 3.0). These procedures control the quality measurements and their accuracy.
Each document carries a unique identification number, a revision level, dates, page numbers and total page count, and approver identification and sign off. If TBE writes code for software, the software is version identified and issued after Verification and Validation per Section 7.0.
6.3    Documentation Changes Each change is reviewed in the same manner and by the same people as new documentation. Revision identifications are updated and changes indicated by side bars, italicized words, or by revision description when practical. Obsolete revisions are maintained by QA after being identified as obsolete.
6.4    Documentation Lists and Distributions Computer indexes of documents are maintained by Quality showing the current authorized revision level of each document. These revisions are placed on the Laboratory server and obsolete ones are removed so that all personnel have only the current documents. If hard copies are produced and distributed, separate distribution lists are maintained indicating who has them and their revision level(s).
Copies downloaded off the server are uncontrolled unless verified by the user (on the computer) to be the latest revision.
6.5    Other Documentation In addition to TBE-generated documentation, QA maintains copies of applicable specifications, regulations, and standard methods.
6.6    Documentation Reviews Each issued document is reviewed at least every third year by the approving personnel. This review determines continued suitability for use and compliance with requirements.

Page 18 of 32 7.3.2  Methods The laboratory methods documented in the 2000 and 3000 series of Procedures were primarily developed by senior TBE laboratory personnel based on years of experience at our prior facility in New Jersey. They have been improved, supplemented and implemented here. Where EPA or other accepted national methods exist (primarily for water analyses under State certification programs - see Procedure 4010), the TBE methods conform to the imposed requirements or State accepted alternate requirements. Any method modifications are documented and described in the Procedure. There are no nationally recognized methods for most other analysis methods but references to other method documents are noted where applicable.
7.0    DESIGN OF LABORATORY CONTROLS 7.1    General The Laboratory and its operating procedures are designed specifically for low level (environmental and in-plant) radioactive sample analysis. The various aspects of the laboratory design include the following which are discussed in subsequent paragraphs of this Section:
7.3.3 Data Reduction and Analysis Whenever possible automatic data capture and computerized data reduction programs are used. Calculations are either performed using commercial software (counting system operating systems) or TBE developed and validated software is used (see 7.4 below). Analysis of reduced data is performed as described in Section 14.0 and Procedure 4004.
(a)    Facility (b)    Technical Processes and Methods (c)    Verification of Design of Processes, Methods, and Software.
7.4  Verification of Technical Processes, Methods, and Software
(d)    Design of Quality Controls (e)   Counting Instrument Controls 7.2    Facility The facility was designed and built in 2000 to facilitate correct performance of operations in accordance with good laboratory practices and regulatory requirements. It provides security for operations and samples. It separates sample storage areas based on activity levels, separates wet chemistry from counting instrumentation for contamination control, and provides space and electronic systems for documentation, analysis, and record storage. Procedure 4014 describes the facility, room uses, layouts, etc.
7.3   Technical Processes and Methods 7.3.1 Operational Flow The laboratory design provides for sample receipt and storage (including special environmental provisions for perishable items) where samples are received from clients and other labs (see Section 9.0). The samples are logged into the computer based Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and receive unique identification numbers and bar code labels. (See Procedure 4017 for LIMS description and user procedures). The Program Managers then plan the work and assure LIMS contains any special instructions to analysts. Samples then go to sample preparation, wet chemistry (for chemical separation), and counting based on the radionuclides. See Procedures in the 2000 and 3000 series. Analysts perform the required tasks with data being entered into logbooks, LIMS, and counting equipment data systems as appropriate. Results are collected and reviewed by the Operations Manager and Program Managers and reports to clients are generated (See Section 14.0). All records (electronic or hard copy) are maintained in files or in back-up electronic copies (see Section 15.0). After the required hold periods and client notification and approval, samples are disposed of in compliance with regulatory requirements (see Procedures 5003 and 5004).

Where EPA or other accepted national methods exist (primarily for water analyses under State certification programs - see Procedure 4010), the TBE methods conform to the imposed requirements or State accepted alternate requirements. Any method modifications are documented and described in the Procedure. There are no nationally recognized methods for most other analysis methods but references to other method documents are noted where applicable.
7.4.2 Method Verifications Methods are verified and validated per Procedure 4007 prior to use unless otherwise agreed to by the client. For most TBE methods initial validation occurred well in the past. New or significantly revised Methods receive initial validation by demonstration of their performance using known analytes (NIST traceable) in appropriate matrices. Sufficient samples are run to obtain statistical data that provides evidence of process capability and control, establishes detection levels (see procedure 4009), bias and precisi on data (see Procedure 4011). All method procedures and validation data are available to respective clients. Also see Section 7.5 below for the Demonstration of Capability program.
7.3.3 Data Reduction and Analysis Whenever possible automatic data capture and computerized data reduction programs are used. Calculations are either performed using commercial software (counting system operating systems) or TBE developed and validated software is used (see 7.4 below). Analysis of reduced data is performed as described in Section 14.0 and Procedure 4004.
7.4.3 Data Reduction and Analysis Verification Data reduction and analysis verification is performed by personnel who did not generate the data. (See Section 14.0).

7.5   Design of Quality Controls Page 18 of 32


Page 19 of 32 7.5.1 General There are multiple quality controls designed into the laboratory operations. Many of these are described elsewhere in this manual and include personnel qualification (Section 4.0), Document control (6.0), Sample identification and control (9.0), Use of reference standards (10.0), intra- and inter- laborator y tests (10.0), etc. This Section describes the basic quality control systems used to verify Method capability and performance.
7.5.1 General There are multiple quality controls designed into the laboratory operations.
7.5.2 Demonstration of Capability (D of C)
Many of these are described elsewhere in this manual and include personnel qualification (Section 4.0), Document control (6.0), Sample identification and control (9.0), Use of reference standards (10.0), intra- and inter- laboratory tests (10.0), etc.
The demonstration of capability system verifies and documents that the method, analyst, and the equipment can perfo rm within acceptable limits. The D of C is certified for each combination of analyte, method, and instrument type. D of C's are certified based on objective evidence at least annually. This program is combined with the analyst D of C program (See Section 4.0). Initial D of C's use the method validation effort as covered above. Subsequent D of C's use Inter- Laboratory samples (Procedure 4006) or, if necessary, laboratory generated samples using NIST traceable standards. If results are outside of control limits, re-demonstration is required after investigation and corrective action is accomplished (See Sections 12.0 and 13.0) 7.5.3 Process Control Checks Process control checks are designed to include Inter-Lab samples, Intra-lab QC check samples, and customer provided check samples. 10% of laboratory analysis samples are for process control purposes.
This Section describes the basic quality control systems used to verify Method capability and performance.

7.5.3.1 Inter- Lab Samples. Inter-lab samples are procured or obtained from sources providing analytes of interest in matrices similar to normal client samples. These samples may be used for Demonstration of Capability of analyst's, equipment and methods. They also provide for independent insight into the lab's process capabilities. Any value reported as being in the warning zone (over 2 sigma) is reviewed and improvements taken. Any value failing (over 3 sigma) is documented on an NCR and formal investigation per Section 12.0 and 13.0 is performed. If root causes are not clearly understood and fixed, re-tests are required using lab prepared samples (See Procedure 4006).

The system takes graded actions based on the nature and severity of the nonconformance. Nonconforming items or processes are controlled to prevent inadvertent use. Nonconformances are documented and dispositioned. Notification is made to affected organizations, including clients. Procedure 1010 describes the procedures followed. Sample result s are only reported after resolution.
12.2 Responsibility and Authority Each Laboratory employee has the responsibility to report nonconformances and the authority to stop performing nonconforming work or using nonconforming equipment. Laboratory supervision can disposition and take corrective actions on minor problems. Any significant problem is documented by QA using the Laboratory's NCR system per Procedure 1010. QA conducts or assures the conduct of cause analyses, disposition of items or data, and initiation of corrective action if the nonconformance could recur.
12.3 10CFR21 Reporting The QA Manager reviews NCRs for possible need of customer and/or NRC notification per the requirements of 10CFR21. Procedure 1011 is followed in this review and for any required reporting.

13.1 General The Laboratory takes corrective actions on significant nonconformances (see Section 12.0). It also initiates preventive and improvement actions per the Company Quality Policy (see Section 2.0). The procedures for Corrective Action/Preventive Action systems are contained in Procedure 1012.
11.5  Records Records of calibrations are maintained.       Calibration certificates from calibration vendors are maintained by QA. Other calibration data and check data is maintained in log books, LIMS, or instrument software as appropriate and as described in Procedures 1009, 4018, and 4019.
13.2 Corrective Actions Corrective actions are taken by Operations and Quality to promptly correct significant conditions adverse to quality. The condition is identified and cause analysis is performed to identify root causes. Solutions are evaluated and the optimum one selected that will prevent recurrence, can be implemented by the Laboratory, allows the Laboratory to meet its other goals, and is commensurate with the significance of the problem. All steps are documented, action plans developed for major efforts, and reports made to Management. QA verifies the implementation effectiveness. Procedure 1012 provides instructions and designates authorities and responsibilities.

13.3 Preventive Actions Preventive actions are improvements intended to reduce the potential for nonconformances. Possible preventive actions are developed from suggestions from employees and from analysis of Laboratory technical and quality systems by management. If preventive actions or improvements are selected for investigation, the issues, investigation, recommendat ions, and implementation actions are documented. Follow up verifies effectiveness.

Nonconformances are documented and dispositioned. Notification is made to affected organizations, including clients. Procedure 1010 describes the procedures followed. Sample results are only reported after resolution.
14.2 Results Review The results obtained from analytical efforts are collected and reviewed by the Operations Manager and the Program Manager. This review verifies the reasonableness and consistency of the results. It includes review of sample and the related QC activity data. Procedure 4002 describes the process. Any deficiencies are corrected by re-analyses, recalculations, or corrective actions per Sections 12.0 and 13.0. Use of the LIMS with its automatic data loading features (see Procedure 4017) minimizes the possibility of transcription or calculation errors.

QA conducts or assures the conduct of cause analyses, disposition of items or data, and initiation of corrective action if the nonconformance could recur.
14.3 Reports Reports range from simple results reporting to elaborate analytical reports based on the client requirements and imposed specifications and standards. (See Procedure 4004.)  Reports present results accurately, clearly, unambiguously, objectively, and as required by the applicable Method(s). Reports include reproduction restrictions, information on any deviations from methods, and any needed data qualifiers based on QC data. If any data is supplied by analytical subcontractors (see Section 8.0), it is clearly identified and attributed to that Laboratory by either name or accreditation number.

SUMMARY

This Hydrogeologic Investigation Report (HIR) documents the results of Conestoga-Rovers & Associates' (CRA's) May 2006 Hydrogeologic Investigation Work Plan (Work Plan) pertaining to the Byron Generating Station in Byron, Illinois. CRA prepared this HIR for Exelon as part of its Fleetwide Program to determine whether groundwater at and in the vicinity of its nuclear power generating facilities has been adversely impacted by any releases of radionuclides. This report also documents the results of CRA's and the Byron Station's investigation beginning in January 2006 in relation to the current and former blowdown lines.

CRA collected and analyzed information on historical releases, the structures, components, and areas of the Station that have the potential to release tritium or other radioactive liquids to the environment and past hydrogeologic investigations at the Station. CRA used this information, combined with its understanding of groundwater flow and sample locations at the Station to identify the AFEs for the Station.

CRA collected 39 groundwater samples during the blowdown line investigation and 41 groundwater samples during the fleetwide investigation. CRA also collected two full rounds of water levels from the newly installed and existing wells. The Work Plan was completed in March and April 2006. All groundwater samples were analyzed for tritium, strontium-89/90 and gamma-emitting radionuclides.

The results of the hydrogeologic investigation are:

  • Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective Lower Limits of Detection (LLDs) in any of the groundwater samples obtained and analyzed during the course of this investigation;
  • Strontium-89/90 was not detected at a concentration greater than the LLD of 2 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L) in any of the groundwater samples obtained and analyzed during the course of this investigation;
  • Low levels of tritium were detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in four out of 39 samples collected, which is considered background, but well below the applicable drinking water standard. These tritium concentrations ranged from 234 +/- 128 pCi/L to 3,260 +/- 367 pCi/L. These four samples were all 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station i CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 collected from monitoring wells near three vacuum breaker vaults: VB-2, VB-3, and VB-4. The source of the tritium concentrations in the groundwater was periodic leaks during re-seating of the blowdown line vacuum breaker valves;

  • Based on the results of this investigation, tritium is not migrating off the Station property at detectable concentrations;
  • Based on the results of this investigation, there is no current risk from exposure to radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations through any of the identified potential exposure pathways; and
  • Based on the results of this investigation, there are no known active releases into the groundwater at the Station.

Based upon the information collected to date, CRA recommends that Exelon conduct periodic monitoring of selected sample locations.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Conestoga-Rovers & Associates (CRA) has prepared this Hydrogeologic Investigation Report (HIR) for Exelon Generation Company, LLC (Exelon) as part of its Fleetwide Program to determine whether groundwater at and in the vicinity of its nuclear power generating facilities has been adversely impacted by any releases of radionuclides. This report documents the results of CRA's May 2006 Hydrogeologic Investigation Work Plan (Work Plan). This investigation pertains to Exelon's Byron Generating Station in Byron, Illinois (Station) (refer to Figure 1.1). This report also documents the results of CRA's and the Station's investigation conducted beginning in January 2006 in relation to the current and former blowdown lines.

The Station is defined as all property, structures, systems, and components owned and operated by Exelon located at 4450 North German Church Road in Byron, Illinois, Rockvale and Marion Townships, Ogle County. The approximate property boundaries are shown on Figure 1.2.

Pursuant to the Work Plan, CRA assessed groundwater quality at the Station in locations designated as Areas for Further Evaluation (AFEs). The process by which CRA identified AFEs is discussed in Section 3.0 of this report.

The objectives of the Work Plan were to:

  • characterize the geologic and hydrogeologic conditions at the Station, including subsurface soil types, the presence or absence of confining layers, and the direction and rate of groundwater flow;
  • characterize the groundwater/surface water interaction at the Station, including a determination of the surface water flow regime;
  • evaluate groundwater quality at the Station, including the vertical and horizontal extent, quantity, concentrations, and potential sources of tritium and other radionuclides in the groundwater, if any;
  • define the probable sources of any radionuclides released at the Station;
  • evaluate potential human, ecological, or environmental receptors of any radionuclides that might have been released to the environment; and
  • evaluate whether interim response activities are warranted.

Revision 1 2.0 STATION DESCRIPTION The following section presents a general summary of the Station location and definition, overview of Station operations, surrounding land use, and an overview of both regional and Station-specific topography, surface water features, geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater flow conditions. This section also presents an overview of groundwater use in the area.

2.1 STATION LOCATION The Station is located at 4450 North German Church Road in Byron, Illinois, Rockvale and Marion Townships, Ogle County. The Station consists of approximately 1,900 acres, of which approximately 1,200 acres are used for the generating facility. The other approximately 700 acres of property encompass a 'buffer zone' around the facility and property to the west of the facility.

The Byron Station is located approximately 2 miles east of the Rock River. The blowdown line extends from the Station to the Rock River, and discharges into the Rock River. Figure 1.2 presents a Station Property Map showing the Station structures and the approximate property boundary.

2.2 OVERVIEW OF COOLING WATER OPERATIONS Operations at the Station began in 1985. The two nuclear reactors at the Station (Unit 1 and Unit 2) are both pressurized water reactors. The Station produces approximately 2,400 megawatts of electricity.

Non-contact cooling water from the Rock River that is used in the electricity generation process is cooled through the Station's two cooling towers. The water is then recirculated through the flume and discharged through the blowdown line back to the Rock River in accordance with an Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (Illinois EPA) National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit (IL0048313) and Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Operating Licenses, NPF-37 (Unit 1) and NPF-66 (Unit 2).

Water from the Station's Radioactive Waste Treatment system is transferred to the liquid Radioactive Waste Storage Tank where it is sampled and analyzed. Once the analysis is reviewed and the water is determined to be in compliance with the NPDES permit and 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 2 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 the NRC Operating License discharge limitations, it is batch released through the blowdown line.

The blowdown line and make-up line were constructed adjacent to each other and follow a northwest and then westerly path from the Station for approximately 2 miles to the Rock River. At the Rock River, the make-up line is located approximately 300 feet upstream of the blowdown line. Along the length of the two lines, there are six vacuum breaker (VB) locations (VB-1 through VB-6) for each line. The breakers are located within concrete vaults. There are two vaults at each breaker location, one for each line.

There are seven ponds in the northeast section of the Station. Six of these ponds are concrete-lined process catch basins and are aligned in an east-west trending series.

These are referred to as the Treated Runoff ponds. The four western ponds collect water from the Station; the water from these four ponds is pumped to the waste treatment building for processing. The two eastern ponds collect rainwater from the storm water drain system; the water from these ponds is pumped to the Construction Run-off Pond (CROP) located north of the Treated Runoff ponds. The CROP is lined at the bottom with 1 foot of clay. Water from the CROP is eventually pumped back into the Station's cooling towers.

2.3 SURROUNDING LAND USE The land surrounding the Station in all directions is primarily farmland. Approximately 0.3 mile north of the Station property along the Rock River is a small residential subdivision named Rock Terrace. In addition, there are two small residential areas along the Rock River approximately 0.1 mile and 0.8 mile south of the Station property.

The Byron Salvage Superfund Site (Byron Salvage Site) is immediately to the north of the west portion of the Station along Razorville Road. The Byron Salvage Site is administered by United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Region 5. It was placed on the National Priorities List (NPL) in 1982 and has the USEPA identification number ILD010236230. The Byron Salvage Site consists of two separate properties: the Byron Salvage Yard property and the Dirk's Farm property (see Figure 1.2). The Dirk's Farm property is currently owned by Exelon, and is a former farm located west of the Byron Salvage Yard property across Razorville Road.

Waste disposal at the Byron Salvage Site is known to have occurred on each of the two properties. From the mid 1960s to 1972, approximately 10 acres of the Byron Salvage Site were used as an automotive salvage yard and dump where miscellaneous waste 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 3 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 and debris were disposed. Such wastes and debris included drums of electroplating wastes and other materials including oil sludges, cutting wheels, solvents, scrap metal, and industrial wastes. Plating waste containing cyanide was sprayed onto roads as dust control at the Byron Salvage Site.

At the direction of Illinois EPA, from 1974 through 1976 Exelon's predecessor, Commonwealth Edison Company (ComEd) removed the waste material from the Dirks Farm property. After 1976, ComEd continued monitoring the groundwater at the Dirks Farm property. Investigative and remedial actions were conducted at the Byron Salvage Yard portion of the Site beginning in 1983. Drums were present at the Byron Salvage Yard on the surface and buried underground. Hazardous wastes were found to contain lead, arsenic, cyanides, halogenated organics, zinc, nickel, and low concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Between 1986 and 1998, soil removal and cleanup activities were conducted on the Byron Salvage Site. The Byron Salvage Site remediation is in the long-term groundwater monitoring phase for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and cyanides. ComEd resolved its alleged liability for the Byron Salvage Site in a settlement with USEPA.

2.4 STATION SETTING The following sections present a summary of the topography, surface water features, geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater flow conditions in the region surrounding the Station. The information was primarily gathered from Sections 2.1 and 2.5 of the Byron Station Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR), Revision 10 dated December 2004, and from the well logs contained in the Byron Salvage Yard Remedial Design Work Plan (CRA, June 2001). The main references that the UFSAR relied upon are listed in Section 10.0 of this HIR. CRA checked and verified all UFSAR references that apply to this HIR.

2.4.1 TOPOGRAPHY AND SURFACE WATER FEATURES The Station's location is on the Oregon, Illinois 7.5-minute United States Geological Service (USGS) quadrangle topographic maps, dated 1976 (Stillman Valley) and 1983 (Oregon) (see Figure 1.1). The property boundaries fall within the following sections of the map: T24N R10E Sections 12, 13, 14, 15, 22, 23, and 24, and T24N R11E Sections 7, 18, and 19. The Byron, Illinois area is part of the Rock River Hill Country physiographic subsection. The Rock River Hill Country is characterized by gently rolling, dissected uplands covered by thin deposits of glacial drift overlain by a thin cap of loess. The 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 4 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 southwest-trending Rock River valley passes through the eastern portion of the subsection. Bedrock is exposed locally along the Rock River and along small tributary streams and valleys of the Rock River. The topography that is indicated on the Oregon, Illinois 7.5-minute quadrangle is consistent with this physiography.

The Station was constructed on a local topographic high. In each direction from the Station, the topography undulates, with rolling hills and valleys. Along the Rock River, erosional valleys cut by tributary streams are present. The ground surface elevation at the Station is approximately 200 feet higher than the ground surface near the Rock River.

The Rock River, the largest body of water in the area, is located approximately 2 miles to the west of the Station. The river flows southward with an average flow of 4,000 cubic feet per second (cfs) and is primarily used for recreation, including boating, fishing, and water skiing. Streams in the Byron area discharge into the Rock River; the confluence of the Rock River with the Mississippi River is approximately 115 river miles south of the Station (Willman, et al., 1967).

The Woodland Creek is located to the north of the Station and flows to the northwest toward the Rock River. Additionally, an unnamed creek is located to the west of the Station and flows west toward the Rock River. Both of these creeks are ephemeral, flowing only during times of heavy rainfall.

2.4.2 GEOLOGY The northern portion of the mid-western United States is in the Central Lowlands Physiographic Province (Willman et al., 1975). This physiographic province has been divided into several physiographic sections. Parts of northern Illinois are located in the Wisconsin Driftless Section, the Till Plains Section, and the Great Lake Section.

Byron Station is located within the Till Plains Section. The Till Plains Section is characterized, in general, by the presence of glacial deposits overlying the bedrock surface. Local outcrops of bedrock are present. The Till Plains Section in Illinois is further subdivided into the following physiographic subsections: the Rock River Hill Country, the Green River Lowland, the Bloomington Ridged Plain, the Galesburg Plain, the Kankakee Plain, and the Springfield Plain. The Byron Station is in the Rock River Hill Country physiographic subsection (Willman et al., 1975).

The soil units in the region, adjacent to the Station, are relatively thin or locally absent.

They include alluvial deposits associated with the rivers and streams in the area, glacial 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 5 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 deposits of till and outwash generally located in the upland areas, thin loess deposits that overlie the till, and locally, some thin residual soils developed from the weathering of the bedrock.

The Station is underlain by a veneer of overburden deposits that vary in thickness from less than 1 foot to approximately 12 feet and consist mainly of silty loam and loess, with alluvial deposits near the Rock River. The predominant soil types at the Station are the Martinsville Silt Loam, the Whalen Loam, and the Lamont Sandy Loam (Ogle County, 2006). These three soil types consist of loamy soil with varying amounts of silt and sand, with slopes ranging from 2 to 18 percent (United States Department of Agriculture, 2006).

The distribution of the rock units that form the bedrock surface within the region include a sedimentary sequence of Cambrian to Cretaceous-rocks and an igneous and metamorphic complex of Precambrian-aged rocks. The sedimentary sequence in northern Illinois near the Station includes Ordovician-aged and Cambrian-aged strata.

These strata consist of 2,000 to 3,000 feet of dolomites, sandstones, and shales. The Precambrian basement in northern Illinois consists of granites and granodiorites (Bradbury and Atherton, 1965).

The Byron Station lies within the Central Stable Region tectonic province of the North American continent. This tectonic region is characterized by a sequence of southward-thickening sedimentary strata overlying the Precambrian basement and was subjected to a series of vertical crustal movements forming broad basins and arches during Paleozoic and early Mesozoic time. Local folding and faulting has modified the arches and basins (Buschbach, 1964) (Willman et al., 1975).

The bedrock under the Station is comprised of flat-lying Ordovician-aged dolomitic and sandstone layers progressing downward as follows:

  • Galena Group Dolomites;
  • Platteville Group Dolomites; and
  • Ancell Group, consisting of:

Glenwood Formation (shale with sandy dolomite, semi-confining layer),

St. Peter Sandstone Formation, and older Cambrian formations.

The generating facility was constructed on an area of a 'bedrock high', and the foundation was installed into the bedrock. Figures 2.1 and 2.2 present generalized 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 6 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 cross-sections of the area geology prepared from geologic information gathered from boreholes advanced prior to construction of the Station. The locations of the cross-sections are shown on Figure 1.2.

CRA has prepared hydrogeologic cross-sections depicting the geology and groundwater elevations under the Station. These figures are discussed in Section 5.0 of this Report.

2.4.3 HYDROGEOLOGY Ordovician-age Galena-Platteville dolomites and the older Ordovician-age Glenwood Formation and St. Peter Sandstone underlie the area. The most important aquifer in the region is the Cambrian-Ordovician Aquifer, made up of all bedrock between the top of the Galena-Platteville dolomites and the top of the Eau Claire Formation. These strata are, in descending order, the Ordovician-age Galena Formation, Platteville Formation, Ancell Formation (Glenwood, St. Peter, and older Cambrian formations), Prairie du Chien Formation, and Ironton and Galesville Sandstones. At the Bryon Station, the Galena-Platteville dolomites are separated from the rest of the Cambrian-Ordovician Aquifer by the Harmony Hill Shale Member of the Glenwood Formation. Available data indicate that, on a regional basis, the entire sequence of strata above the Eau Claire Formation behaves hydraulically as one aquifer. In places, pressure heads between the water bearing units differ, and the hydraulic connection is imperfect.

The Galena and Platteville Groups dolomites are extensively fractured near the top, with solutionally enlarged openings in places but become dense at depth. Water from the Galena-Platteville dolomites in the area is generally hard. Relatively low yields, water hardness, and susceptibility of the aquifer to contamination because of thin drift, fractures, and solution channels do not favor development of the Galena-Platteville dolomites.

Below the Galena-Platteville dolomites are the thin shales, sandstones, and limestones of the Glenwood Formation. This unit grades downward into the thick sandstones of the St. Peter Sandstone. The Ordovician-age St. Peter Sandstone is permeable and has a relatively uniform lithology throughout the area. The St. Peter Sandstone is recharged from overlying glacial deposits in the central and western parts of northern Illinois, and also by vertical leakage through the Maquoketa Shale Group in northeastern Illinois and by through-flow from the outcrop area in southern Wisconsin (Buschbach, 1964).

Revision 1 2.4.3.1 EXISTING WELL NETWORK Groundwater (the water table) under the Station is first encountered within the Galena-Platteville limestones and dolomites. The depth to the groundwater varies with the topography, ranging from approximately 17 feet below ground surface (feet bgs) to 115 feet bgs. Near the Rock River, the water table is in the unconsolidated deposits.

There are 77 wells at the Station. Figure 2.3 presents the locations of the wells. Of the 77 wells, the Station owns 33 wells and the remaining 44 wells are owned by the Byron Salvage Site PRP Group. A summary of the existing well information is provided in Table 2.1. These wells were used during the investigations to provide information on the geology and groundwater levels at the Station.

The monitoring wells are set at different depths to screen all three hydrogeologic units located under the Station. CRA monitors the levels and water quality of the Byron Salvage Site wells at the Station as part of the long-term monitoring program for the Byron Salvage Site.

There are two deep wells in the Protected Area (PA). The wells are designated Deep Well 1 and Deep Well 2 and are used for the Station's water supply (see Figure 2.3).

Both wells were installed during the construction of the Station and draw water from depths greater than 500 feet below grade at an average flow rate of 800 gallons per minute (gpm) per well. Water is pumped from each well at different times, and the piping from the wells combines into a common manifold to supply the Station's water supply.

There are two former farmhouse water supply wells on the Station. The wells are designated GW-9 and Well 7. During an investigation of the blowdown line, which began in early 2006 (refer to Section 3.3.2.2), 16 overburden monitoring wells and 13 bedrock wells were installed along the blowdown line and also within the PA.

Further details regarding the most recent monitoring wells are provided in Section 3.4 of this report.

CRA expects most of the private wells in the vicinity of the Station are completed in the St. Peter Sandstone, however, well completion information was not available for all private wells identified by CRA, in order to confirm this observation.

Revision 1 2.4.3.2 GROUNDWATER FLOW Groundwater flow in the Galena-Platteville dolomites occurs along joints and bedding planes. Solutioning along these pathways continues at an imperceptible rate due to the low solubility of the dolomite, the hardness of the groundwater, and the relatively low hydraulic gradient within the aquifer.

The general regional groundwater flow direction in the Galena-Platteville dolomites and the underlying Glenwood Formation and St. Peter Sandstone is to the west toward the Rock River. Local groundwater flow conditions are typically influenced by surface topography and aquifer thickness.

Groundwater flow patterns vary under the Station property. In July 1974, the Station assessed groundwater flow using a system of wells and piezometers installed prior to Station construction. Since the facility sits upon a bedrock high, groundwater flow directly beneath the facility was radially outward in all directions. Figure 2.4 presents the groundwater flow for the Station.

On the western portion of the Station near the blowdown line, groundwater flow was historically assessed as part of the Byron Salvage Site remedial investigation. CRA measured water levels at the Byron Salvage Site monitoring wells on March 23, 2006.

Groundwater contours for the entire Station (both the blowdown line area and the generating facility), are shown on Figure 2.4 which presents a combined generalized contour map of the 1974 data (for the generating facility) and the March 2006 data (for the blowdown line area). There is a northwest/southeast trending groundwater divide near Razorville Road, west of the generating facility, and perpendicular to the blowdown line. The direction of groundwater flow at points along the blowdown line varies depending upon the location. However, the general groundwater flow direction is to the west toward the Rock River.

2.5 AREA GROUNDWATER USE RETEC completed a water well search and survey for the Station property ("Residential Well Survey", RETEC Group, Inc, September 23, 2005). CRA expanded the water well search between March and May 2006 to identify the public and private water wells located within approximately 1 mile of Station property. CRA contacted the following sources for information:

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 9 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1

  • Illinois State Geological Survey (ISGS);
  • Ogle County GIS system.

The ISGS (in association with the Illinois EPA) and the ISWS maintain databases of water well information. The ISWS and ISGS provided lists of water wells for the Station and for the area surrounding the Station. A figure of the approximate locations of the water wells surrounding the Station (Figure A.1), along with copies of the information gathered from the ISWS and ISGS are provided in Appendix A. All of the water wells listed are for residential use; none are listed for commercial, industrial, or public water supply uses.

The St. Peter Sandstone is the primary aquifer for residential potable water in the area.

The most important aquifer in the region is the Cambrian-Ordovician Aquifer, made up of all bedrock between the top of the Galena-Platteville dolomites and the top of the Eau Claire Formation.

Potable water for the residences south, east, and some north of the Station is provided by private water wells at each property. As part of the Byron Salvage Site groundwater remediation, an alternate water supply and distribution system was provided to many of the residences located north of the Station.

Revision 1 3.0 AREAS FOR FURTHER EVALUATION CRA considered all Station operations in assessing groundwater quality at the Station.

During this process, CRA identified areas at the Station that warranted further evaluation or "AFEs". This section discusses the process by which AFEs were selected.

CRA's identification of AFEs involved the following components:

  • Station inspection on March 21 and 22, 2006;
  • interviews with Station personnel;
  • evaluation of Station systems;
  • investigation of confirmed and unconfirmed releases of radionuclides; and
  • review of previous Station investigations.

CRA analyzed the information collected from these components combined with information obtained from CRA's study of hydrogeologic conditions at the Station to identify those areas where groundwater potentially could be impacted from operations at the Station.

CRA then designed an investigation to determine whether any confirmed or potential releases or any other release of radionuclides adversely affected groundwater. This entailed evaluating whether existing Station groundwater monitoring systems were sufficient to assess the groundwater quality at the AFEs. If the systems were not sufficient to adequately investigate groundwater quality associated with any AFE, additional monitoring wells were installed by CRA.

The following sections describe the above considerations and the identification of AFEs.

The results of CRA's investigation are discussed in Section 5.0.

3.1 SYSTEMS EVALUATIONS Exelon launched an initiative to systematically assess the structures, systems and components that store, use, or convey potentially radioactively contaminated liquids.

Maps depicting each of these systems were developed and provided to CRA for review.

The locations of these systems are presented on Figures 3.1 through 3.3. The Station identified a total of 30 systems that contain or could potentially contain radioactively contaminated liquids. The following presents a list of these systems.

The structures, components, and areas may include:

  • aboveground storage tanks;
  • condensate vents;
  • areas where confirmed or potential historical releases, spills or accidental discharges may have occurred; 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 12 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1

  • pipes;
  • pools;
  • surface water bodies (i.e., basins, pits, ponds, or lagoons);
  • trenches;
  • underground storage tanks; and
  • vaults.

The Station then individually evaluated the various system components to determine the potential for any release of radioactively contaminated liquid to enter the environment. Each structure or identified component was evaluated against the following seven primary criteria:

  • location of the component (i.e., basement or second floor of building);
  • component construction material (i.e., stainless steel or steel tanks);
  • construction methodologies (i.e., welded or mechanical pipe joints);
  • concentration of radioactively contaminated liquid stored or conveyed;
  • amount of radioactively contaminated liquid stored or conveyed;
  • existing controls (i.e., containment and detection); and
  • maintenance history.

System components, which were located inside a building or that otherwise had some form of secondary containment, such that a release of radioactively contaminated liquid would not be discharged directly to the environment, were eliminated from further evaluation. System components that are not located within buildings or did not have some other form of secondary containment were retained for further qualitative evaluation of the risk of a release of radioactively contaminated liquid to the environment and the potential magnitude of any release.

Exelon's risk evaluation took into consideration factors such as:

  • the potential concentration of radionuclides;
  • the volume of liquid stored or managed;
  • the probabilities of the systems actually containing radioactively contaminated liquid; and 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 13 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1

  • the potential for a release of radioactively contaminated liquid from the system component.

These factors were then used to rank the systems and system components according to the risk for a potential release of a radioactively contaminated liquid to the environment.

The evaluation process resulted in the identification of structures, components, and areas to be considered for further evaluation.

3.2 HISTORICAL RELEASES CRA also reviewed information concerning confirmed or potential historical releases of radionuclides at the Station, including reports and documents previously prepared by Exelon and compiled for CRA's review. CRA evaluated this information in identifying the AFEs. Any historical releases identified during the course of this assessment that may have a current impact on Station conditions are further discussed in Section 3.4.

3.3 STATION INVESTIGATIONS CRA also considered previous Station investigations in the process of selecting the AFEs for the Station. This section presents a summary of the pre-operational radiological environmental monitoring program (pre-operational REMP), past Station investigations, and the radiological environmental monitoring program (REMP).

3.3.1 PRE-OPERATIONAL RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM A pre-operational REMP was conducted between 1981 and 1984 to establish background radioactivity levels prior to operation of the Station. While a summary report for the pre-operational REMP was not available to CRA, CRA reviewed the pre-operational REMP data. An April 1987 REMP report prepared by Teledyne Isotopes Midwest Laboratory entitled "Radioactive Waste and Environmental Monitoring Annual Report 1986" identifies that a comparison of the 1985 and 1986 data to the pre-operational REMP data indicates that there was no measurable amount of radioactivity due to the Station's operation.

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 14 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 3.3.2 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM The REMP at the Station was initiated in 1985. The REMP includes the collection of multi-media samples including air, surface water, groundwater, fish, sediment, vegetation, local cow milk, and residential potable water. The samples are analyzed for beta and gamma-emitting radionuclides, tritium, iodine-131, and/or strontium as established in the procedures developed for the REMP. The samples are collected at established locations, identified as stations, so that trends in the data can be monitored.

An annual report is prepared providing a description of the activities performed and the results of the analysis of the samples collected from the various media. The latest report generated was prepared by Station personnel and is entitled "Radioactive Effluent Release Report - January 2005 Through December 2005." This report concluded that the operation of the Station had no adverse radiological impact on the environment. The annual report is submitted to the NRC.

3.3.3 HISTORIC INVESTIGATIONS This section summarizes historic investigations undertaken at the Station prior to this hydrogeologic investigation, related to actual or potential releases of radioactively contaminated liquids to the subsurface.

3.3.3.1 POWER PLANT DOCUMENTS - UFSAR REPORT During the construction of the Station, a series of comprehensive investigations of regional and local geology, surface water, and groundwater conditions were conducted.

These studies are documented in the UFSAR, Rev. 10, dated December 2004 (Byron Station UFSAR, 2004).

3.3.3.2 BLOWDOWN LINE INVESTIGATION In July 2005, water was observed in the concrete vault for vacuum breaker 6 (VB-6). A water sample collected from the concrete vault, at that time, contained less than 2,000 picoCuries per liter (pCi/L) of tritium.

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 15 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 In January 2006, the Station initiated an investigation into the blowdown line. A program of inspections of the concrete vaults, along with routine observations for water within the vaults was begun. Subsequent to the initial discovery of water in the vaults, Exelon performed construction upgrades on each of the six breaker vaults. These upgrades are intended to ensure that there will be no future releases of potentially contaminated liquid to the subsurface.

3.4 IDENTIFIED AREAS FOR FURTHER EVALUATION CRA used the information presented in the above sections along with its understanding of the hydrogeology at the Station to identify AFEs, which were a primary consideration in the development of the scope of work in the Work Plan. The establishment of AFEs is a standard planning practice in hydrogeologic investigations to focus the investigation activities at areas where there is the greatest potential for impact to groundwater.

Specifically, AFEs were identified based on these six considerations:

  • systems evaluations;
  • risk evaluations;
  • review of confirmed and/or potential releases;
  • review of documents;
  • review of the hydrogeologic conditions; and
  • Station inspection completed on March 22 and 23, 2006.

Prior to CRA completing its analysis and determination of AFEs, Station personnel completed an exhaustive review of all historic and current management of systems that may contain potentially radioactively contaminated liquids.

CRA reviewed the systems identified by the Station, which have the potential for the release of radioactively contaminated liquids to the environment, and groundwater flow at the Station. This evaluation allowed CRA to become familiar with Station operations and potential systems that may impact groundwater. CRA then evaluated information concerning historic releases as provided by the Station. This information, along with a review of the results from historic investigations, was used to refine CRA's understanding of areas likely to have the highest possibility of impacting groundwater.

Where at risk systems or identified historical releases were located in close proximity or were located in areas which could not be evaluated separately, the systems and 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 16 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 historical releases were combined into a single AFE. At times, during the Station investigation, separate AFEs were combined into one or were otherwise altered based on additional information and consideration.

Finally, CRA used its understanding of known hydrogeologic conditions (prior to this investigation) to identify AFEs. Groundwater flow was an important factor in deciding whether to combine systems or historical releases into a single AFE or create separate AFEs. For example, groundwater beneath several systems that contain radioactively contaminated liquids that flows toward a common discharge point were likely combined into a single AFE. The AFEs were created based on known groundwater flow conditions prior to the work completed during this investigation.

Based upon its review of information concerning confirmed or potential historical releases, historic investigations, and the systems at the Station that have the potential for release of radioactively contaminated liquids to the environment combined with its understanding of groundwater flow at the Station, CRA identified three AFEs (see Figures 3.1 through 3.3).

AFE-Byron Former Fiberglass Blowdown Line This AFE is the area in which, in April 1986, after the initial six months of Unit 1 operation, there were three separate ruptures of the original fiberglass blowdown line.

The three ruptures were all in the same area, near River Road (Figure 3.1). Soil and water samples collected as part of the investigation of each rupture indicated the presence of minimal amounts of radioactive material. Following the ruptures, the Station replaced sections of the fiberglass blowdown line. The Station subsequently abandoned the entire line in place and installed a new carbon steel blowdown line in 1987.

AFE-Byron Vacuum Breaker Vaults In December 2005/January 2006, water was observed in the vacuum breaker vaults.

Exelon initiated an investigation into potential groundwater impact near all 12 vacuum breaker vaults (Figure 3.2), plugged the drainage holes and sealed all six blowdown line vaults.

AFE-Byron Protected Area Based on the risk ranking, several systems within the PA scored high as systems in which tritiated water could be released to the environment if a failure or if a set of events 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 17 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 were to occur. These systems include: systems located within the Auxiliary Building, Radwaste Building, Containment Building, and the Turbine Building, the Condensate and Condensate Polishing systems, the Fuel Handling Building systems, the Circulating Water Pump House systems, and the CROP.

To evaluate the groundwater quality in the area of these systems, monitoring wells were installed in locations that are hydraulically downgradient of the AFE (Figure 3.3). The downgradient locations of the monitoring wells were selected based on the radial groundwater flow outward from the PA (Figure 2.4) due to the topographic high on which the PA was constructed. These monitoring well locations were situated to provide for adequate indication of historic releases and future leak detection.

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 18 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 4.0 FIELD METHODS CRA and Station personnel completed two investigations at the Station:

the blowdown line investigation; and the fleetwide investigation.

During the blowdown line investigation conducted from February through April 2006, CRA oversaw the installation and development of 12 temporary and 17 permanent monitoring wells at the Station. CRA and Station personnel collected multiple samples from the vacuum breaker vaults, from nearby residential wells, from the blowdown line itself, from holding ponds, and from the existing and the CRA-installed monitoring wells.

During the fleetwide investigation completed in April and May 2006, CRA conducted a second round of groundwater sampling of 41 monitoring wells, collected a full round of water level measurements from 63 monitoring wells, and surveyed five monitoring wells that had not been surveyed as part of the blowdown line investigation. The field investigations were completed in accordance with the methodologies presented in the Work Plan (CRA, 2006).

The following sections discuss the field activities conducted during these two investigations.

4.1 BLOWDOWN LINE INVESTIGATION ACTIVITIES 4.1.1 GROUNDWATER MONITORING WELL INSTALLATION Prior to completing any ground penetration activities, CRA completed subsurface utility clearance procedures to minimize the potential of injury to workers and/or damage to subsurface utility structures. The subsurface clearance procedures consisted of completing an electronic survey within a minimum of 10-foot radius of the proposed location utilizing electromagnetic and ground penetrating radar technology.

Additionally, an air knife was utilized within the PA to verify utilities were not present at the proposed location to a depth to 10 feet bgs.

From late February 2006 to early April 2006, CRA supervised the installation of 17 monitoring wells and 12 temporary wells along the blowdown line and at other 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 19 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 locations at the Station to evaluate the quality of the groundwater in the areas of the three AFEs. The monitoring well locations are presented on Figure 2.3.

Monitoring wells TW-13 through TW-15 were installed to evaluate the groundwater quality near River Road, downgradient of the 1986 former fiberglass blowdown line ruptures (AFE-Byron-1). These wells were originally constructed as temporary wells, but were eventually converted to permanent monitoring wells.

For AFE-Byron-2, at each of the six vacuum breaker vault locations along the blowdown line, two temporary wells were installed adjacent to the concrete vault and within the bedding material of the blowdown line and make-up line (TW-1 through TW-12). These shallow overburden wells were installed to determine whether groundwater was present in the overburden materials above the bedrock. These 12 temporary wells were dry.

Twelve monitoring wells (AR-1 through AR-10, CAR-2, and CAR-3) were installed to screen the first occurrence of groundwater (the water table) within the Galena-Platteville limestones and dolomites. One well was placed adjacent to each vacuum breaker vault (AR-1 through AR-6) in an anticipated downgradient location as determined from historic groundwater elevations measured in the Byron Salvage Site monitoring wells and levels measured in early March 2006. Monitoring well CAR-2 was installed at a location at the bottom of the valley downgradient from the vault for vacuum breaker 4, which contained water with the highest concentrations of tritium. Five monitoring wells (AR-7 through AR-10 and CAR-3) were installed within and around the PA to evaluate the groundwater quality in the areas of the high-ranking systems (AFE-Byron-3).

Two additional monitoring wells were also installed. Monitoring well CAR-1 was screened in the alluvial sediments adjacent to TW-14 to evaluate the groundwater quality approximately 20 feet below the water table. Due to detections of tritium concentrations in groundwater samples from monitoring well AR-4, monitoring well AR-11 was screened to monitor the groundwater quality at the base of the Galena-Platteville aquifer. In total, 13 bedrock monitoring wells were constructed as part of the blowdown line investigation.

The bedrock monitoring wells were all installed using a combination of augering, coring, and air rotary drilling techniques. The monitoring wells with the AR designation were drilled using air rotary techniques, and the wells with the CAR designation were first cored prior to using rotary techniques. The coring was planned to be completed at three locations to confirm the geology that was already expected based on the drilling logs from the Byron Salvage Site monitoring wells. The exception to the 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 20 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 nomenclature designation is monitoring well CAR-1. Because the bedrock was not encountered at the base of the hill near River Road, coring was not necessary, and CAR-1 was augered to the target depth.

Specific installation protocols for the monitoring wells (other than the shallow temporary wells TW-1 through TW-12) are described below:

  • the borehole was advanced to the target depth using one of the drilling techniques listed above;
  • a nominal 2-inch diameter (No. 10 slot) PVC screen, of varying length, attached to a sufficient length of 2-inch diameter schedule 40 PVC riser pipe to extend to the surface, was placed into the borehole;
  • a filter sand pack consisting of silica sand was installed to a minimum height of 2 feet above the top of the screen;
  • in most cases, a minimum 2-foot thick seal consisting of bentonite chips was placed on top of the sand pack;
  • the remaining borehole annulus was sealed to within 1 foot of the surface using a cement-bentonite grout; and
  • the remaining portion of the annulus was filled with concrete and a 6-inch diameter protective above-grade casing.

Table 2.1 presents a summary of the well information for the wells installed during the blowdown line investigation. All monitoring well locations are presented on Figure 2.3.

Monitoring well stratigraphic and instrumentation logs are provided in Appendix B.

The wells were surveyed for horizontal and vertical control by an Illinois-licensed professional surveyor.

4.1.2 GROUNDWATER MONITORING WELL DEVELOPMENT After installation, CRA developed the 29 monitoring wells installed during the blowdown line investigation.

To establish good hydraulic communication with the aquifer and reduce the volume of sediment in the monitoring well, monitoring well development was performed in accordance with the procedure outlined below:

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 21 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1

  • Monitoring wells were surged using a pre-cleaned surge block for a period of at least 20 minutes.
  • Water was purged from the monitoring well using a pneumatic submersible pump.
  • Groundwater was collected at regular intervals with the pH, temperature, and conductivity measured using field instruments. These instruments were calibrated daily according to the manufacturer's specifications. Additional observations such as color, odor, and turbidity of the purged water were recorded in the field book.
  • Development continued until the turbidity and silt content of the monitoring wells was significantly reduced and three consistent readings of pH, temperature, and conductivity were recorded, or a minimum of ten well volumes were purged.

A summary of the monitoring well development activities is provided in Table 4.1.

4.1.3 SURVEY The new monitoring wells were surveyed to establish reference elevations relative to mean sea level. The top of each well casing was surveyed to the nearest 0.01 foot relative to the North American Vertical Datum 88 (NAVD). The survey included the ground elevation at each well to the nearest 0.10 foot relative to the NAVD, and the well location to the nearest 1.0 foot.

4.1.4 GROUNDWATER ELEVATION MEASUREMENTS During the blowdown line investigation, CRA collected two full rounds of water level measurements from both the Station wells existing at the time and from Byron Salvage Site's monitoring wells located both on and off of the Station property. Synoptic water level measurements were collected on March 23, 2006 and April 4, 2006. Based on the measured depth to water from the reference point and the surveyed elevation of the reference point, the groundwater elevation was calculated. A summary of groundwater elevations for the two measuring events is provided in Table 4.2.

4.1.5 GROUNDWATER SAMPLE COLLECTION CRA conducted one round of groundwater sampling during the blowdown line investigation. A total of 39 monitoring wells were sampled during the event. These wells included 19 of the 23 wells owned by the Station (TW-1 through TW-12 were dry 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 22 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 and the two deep wells are sampled on a quarterly basis and have never indicated tritium impacts) and 20 selected Byron Salvage Site monitoring wells located at the Station. The Byron Salvage Site wells were selected based on the proximity of the wells to the blowdown line, their location downgradient of the blowdown line, and in order to provide a vertical characterization of the groundwater quality.

CRA conducted this round of sampling March 7, 2006 to April 18, 2006. Most of the monitoring wells were sampled on more than one occasion during this time period.

Monitoring wells AR-11 and GW-9 were only sampled once. In addition, a total of 22 Byron Salvage Site monitoring wells were originally selected for sampling. However, Well 7 was not sampled because the old farmhouse pump and drop tube were still in the well and were not removed until April 2006, and well DF-13 could not be sampled due to an obstruction in the well that was later removed. CRA conducted the sampling using a combination of bailers and PVC and stainless steel submersible pumps, employing both slow purging and low flow purging techniques. A summary of the purging parameters is presented in Table 4.3, and a sample summary is presented in Table 4.4.

All groundwater samples were labeled with a unique sample number, the date and time, the parameters to be analyzed, the job number, and the sampler's initials. The samples were then packed in a cooler for screening by the Station and shipment to the project laboratory, Environmental, Inc., via overnight courier under chain-of-custody protocol for tritium analysis. Split samples were also collected for the NRC and Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) for tritium analysis simultaneously with the actual sample at every sample location. The split samples were delivered to the Station personnel for delivery to the NRC and IEMA.

The water purged from the Byron Salvage Site wells during the sampling event was placed into two plastic holding tanks at the Station pending characterization and disposal in accordance with the Station's NPDES permit.

4.2 FLEETWIDE INVESTIGATION ACTIVITIES 4.2.1 GROUNDWATER ELEVATION MEASUREMENTS On April 24, 2006, CRA collected a round of water level measurements from 63 of the 77 Station monitoring wells in accordance with the Work Plan. Based on the measured depth to water from the reference point and the surveyed elevation of the reference point, the groundwater elevation was calculated. A summary of groundwater 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 23 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 elevations for the April 24, 2006 event is provided in Table 4.5. Water level measurements were collected using a portable electronic depth-to-water probe accurate to +/- 0.01 foot. The measurements were made from a designated location at the highest point on each well's inner riser or steel casing. The water level measurements were obtained using the following procedures:

  • the proper elevation of the meter was checked by inserting the tip into water and noting if the contact was registering correctly;
  • the tip was dried, and then slowly lowered into the well until contact with the water was indicated;
  • the tip was slowly raised until the light and/or buzzer just began to activate. This indicated the static water level;
  • the reading at the reference point was noted to the nearest hundredth of a foot.
  • the reading was then re-checked; and
  • the water level was then recorded, and the water level meter decontaminated prior to use at the next well location.

4.2.2 GROUNDWATER SAMPLE COLLECTION CRA conducted a second round of groundwater sampling from April 24 through April 28, 2006. A total of 41 monitoring wells were sampled during the second event.

These included the 39 wells sampled during the first event and wells DF-13 and Well 7.

At these monitoring well locations, CRA conducted the sampling using pneumatic bladder pumps or peristaltic pumps and dedicated polyethylene tubing to employ low flow purging techniques as described in Puls and Barcelona (1996).

The groundwater in the monitoring wells was sampled by the following low-flow procedures:

  • the wells were correctly located and identification numbers were verified;
  • a water level measurement was taken;
  • the well was sounded by carefully lowering the electronic depth-to-water probe to the bottom of the well (as to minimize penetration and disturbance of the well bottom sediment), and comparing the sounded depth to the installed depth to assess the presence of any excess sediment or drill cuttings; 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 24 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1

  • the pump or tubing was lowered slowly into the well and fixed into place such that the intake was located at the mid-point of the well screen, or a minimum of 2 feet above the well bottom/sediment level;
  • the purging was conducted using a pumping rate between 100 to 500 milliliters per minute (mL/min). Initial purging began using the lower end of this range. The groundwater level was monitored to ensure that a drawdown of less than 0.3 foot occurred. If this criterion was met, the pumping rate was increased dependent on the behavior of the well. During purging, the pumping rate and groundwater level were measured and recorded every 10 minutes;
  • the field parameters (pH, temperature, conductivity, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), dissolved oxygen (DO), and turbidity) were monitored during the purging to evaluate the stabilization of the purged groundwater. Stabilization was considered to be achieved when three consecutive readings for each parameter, taken at 5-minute intervals, were within the following limits:

pH +/- 0.1 pH units of the average value of the three readings, Temperature +/- 3 percent of the average value of the three readings, Conductivity +/- 0.005 milliSiemen per centimeter (mS/cm) of the average value of the three readings for conductivity <1 mS/cm and

+/- 0.01 mS/cm of the average value of the three readings for conductivity >1 mS/cm, ORP +/- 10 millivolts (mV) of the average value of the three readings, DO +/- 10 percent of the average value of the three readings, and Turbidity +/- 10 percent of the average value of the three readings, or a final value of less than 5 nephelometric turbidity units (NTU);

  • once purging was complete, the groundwater samples were collected directly from the pump/tubing into the sample containers; and
  • in the event that the groundwater recharge to the monitoring well was insufficient to conduct low flow sampling procedure, the well was pumped dry and allowed to sufficiently recharge prior to sampling.

All groundwater samples were labeled with a unique sample number, the date and time, the parameters to be analyzed, the job number, and the sampler's initials. The samples were then packed in a cooler for screening by the Station and shipment to Teledyne Brown Engineering, Inc. (Teledyne Brown). A sample summary is presented in Table 4.6; field measurements for the fleetwide event are presented in Table 4.7.

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 25 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 CRA containerized the water purged from all of the wells during the fleetwide event.

The water was placed into the two plastic holding tanks at the Station, pending characterization. The water was processed by the Station in accordance with their NPDES permit.

4.2.3 DATA QUALITY OBJECTIVES CRA has validated the analytical data to establish the accuracy and completeness of the data reported. Teledyne Brown provided the analytical services. The Quality Assurance Programs are described in Appendix C. Analytical data for groundwater samples collected in accordance with the Work Plan are presented in Appendix D. Data validation reports are presented in Appendix E. The data validation included the following information and evaluations:

  • sample preservation;
  • sample holding times;
  • laboratory method blanks;
  • laboratory control samples;
  • laboratory duplicates;
  • verify laboratory qualifiers; and
  • field quality control (field blanks and duplicates).

Following the completion of field activities, CRA compiled and reviewed the geologic, hydrogeologic, and analytical data.

The data were reviewed using the following techniques:

  • data tables and databox figures;
  • hydrogeologic cross-sections; and
  • hydraulic analyses.

4.2.4 SAMPLE IDENTIFICATION For the fleetwide sampling, systematic sample identification codes were used to uniquely identify all samples. The identification code format used in the field was:

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 26 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 WG-BYN-042506-SS-01. A summary of sample identification numbers for the fleetwide investigation is presented in Table 4.6.

WG - Sample matrix -groundwater RB - Sample matrix - rinse blank BYN - Station code (for Byron) 042506 - Date (month/day/year)

SS - Sampler's initials 01 - Sample number 4.2.5 CHAIN-OF-CUSTODY RECORD The samples were delivered to Station personnel under chain-of-custody protocol.

Subsequently, the Station or CRA shipped the samples under chain-of-custody protocol to Teledyne Brown for analyses.

4.2.6 QUALITY CONTROL SAMPLES Quality control samples were collected to evaluate the sampling and analysis process.

Field Duplicates Field duplicates were collected to verify the accuracy of the analytical laboratory by providing two samples collected at the same location and then comparing the analytical results for consistency. Field duplicate samples were collected at a frequency of one duplicate for every ten samples collected. The locations of duplicate samples were selected in the field during the performance of sample collection activities. The duplicate samples were collected simultaneously with the actual sample and were analyzed for the same parameters as the actual samples.

Rinsate Blank Samples Rinsate blanks were collected during the fleetwide investigation to verify that decontamination procedures conducted in the field were adequate. Rinsate blanks were collected by routing Station-supplied demineralized water through decontaminated sampling equipment. Rinsate blanks were collected at a frequency of one rinsate blank 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 27 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 for every day samples were collected using non-disposable or non-dedicated equipment.

A total of four rinsate blanks were collected.

Split Samples Split samples were collected for the NRC and IEMA for tritium simultaneously with the actual sample at every sample location. Split samples were delivered to the Station personnel and made available to the NRC and IEMA.

4.2.7 ANALYSES Groundwater samples were analyzed for tritium and gamma-emitting radionuclides as listed in NUREG-1301 and strontium-89/90 as listed in 40 CFR 141.25.

Revision 1 5.0 RESULTS

SUMMARY

This section provides a summary of Station-specific geology and hydrogeology, along with a discussion of hydraulic gradients, groundwater elevations, and flow directions in the vicinity of the Station. This section also presents and evaluates the analytical results obtained from activities performed during the blowdown line and fleetwide investigations.

5.1 STATION GEOLOGY Bedrock under the Station is generally found within the top 10 feet, under a veneer of unconsolidated deposits, except near the Rock River, where the bedrock has been eroded and is encountered at deeper depths. The Station geology is consistent with the regional geology and is comprised of flat-lying Ordovician-aged dolomitic and sandstone layers progressing downward as follows:

  • Galena Group Dolomites;
  • Platteville Group Dolomites; and
  • Ancell Group, consisting of:

Glenwood Formation (shale with sandy dolomite, semi-confining layer),

St. Peter Sandstone Formation, and older Cambrian formations.

The generating facility was constructed on an area of a 'bedrock high', and the foundation was installed into the bedrock.

5.2 STATION HYDROGEOLOGY There are two aquifers within the first 230 feet beneath the Station property:

  • the upper aquifer is the Galena-Platteville aquifer consisting of Galena-Platteville limestones and dolomites; and
  • the lower aquifer is the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer.

The Glenwood Formation separates the above two aquifers. The Glenwood contains shale at the top and sandy dolomite at its base. The shale acts as a semi-confining aquitard between the upper Galena-Platteville aquifer and lower St. Peter Sandstone 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 29 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 aquifer. The first occurrence of groundwater (the water table) is encountered within the unconsolidated deposits near the Rock River, and within the upper fractured portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer in the upland areas, east of the Rock River.

The monitoring wells at the Station were installed to monitor three intervals within the two aquifers (see Table 2.1):

  • wells screened across the water table, either in the unconsolidated sediments near the Rock River or in the upper portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer;
  • wells screened at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, just above the shale unit; and
  • wells screened in the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer.

Figure 5.1 presents the locations of four hydrogeologic cross-sections prepared for the Station. The four cross-sections depict the relationship between the geology and measured groundwater elevations. Figure 5.2 presents an east-west cross-section parallel to the groundwater flow direction, along the blowdown line. Figure 5.3 presents a north-south cross-section perpendicular to the groundwater flow, through vacuum breaker 4 (VB-4). This location was chosen because water with the highest concentrations of tritium was encountered in the concrete vault at VB-4. Also indicated on Figures 5.1 through 5.3 are the approximate limits of the historical Byron Salvage Site groundwater plumes. Figure 5.4 presents two cross-sections through the PA, one trending to the northeast through Unit 2 and the other to the east through Unit 2.

5.2.1 GROUNDWATER FLOW DIRECTIONS CRA used a commercially available contouring program (Surfer, Version 8.02, 2002) to provide an initial contouring of the measured groundwater elevations. CRA then refined the initial contours, using professional judgment, to prepare final contour maps.

Figure 2.4 presents the water table groundwater contours in the upper portion of the Galena-Platteville aquifer based on data collected by CRA on March 23, 2006 for the blowdown line area, along with historical data collected in 1974 for the generating facility area. Figures 5.5 through 5.7 present the groundwater contours based on April 24, 2006 data for the upper portion of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, and the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, respectively.

The general groundwater flow direction in all three intervals is to the west toward Rock River. This is consistent with the regional flow pattern, which is to the west toward the 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 30 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 Rock River, since the Rock River is the major water body in the area (UFSAR, 2004 and CRA, 2001).

Within the upper portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, the direction of groundwater flow typically follows the topographic relief at points along the blowdown line. There is a northwest/southeast trending groundwater divide within the Former Dirk's Farm property, near Razorville Road, that is generally perpendicular to the blowdown line (Figures 2.4 and 5.5).

5.2.2 MAN-MADE INFLUENCES ON GROUNDWATER FLOW The PA sits upon a bedrock high, and as such, the groundwater beneath this area of the Station flows radially outward in all directions. The bedrock below the generating facility foundations was pressure grouted for structural reasons prior to constructing the foundation. The pressure grouting sealed the pore space of the bedrock, thus causing the groundwater to be observed at a deeper depth than that under normal conditions in AR-7. Therefore, the groundwater elevation from AR-7 was not used in the contouring of Figure 5.5.

5.2.3 VERTICAL HYDRAULIC GRADIENTS CRA calculated vertical hydraulic gradients at the locations where depth specific wells were clustered together. Table 5.1 presents the calculated vertical gradients. Between the upper portion of the Galena-Platteville aquifer and the bottom of the aquifer, there is a slight downward vertical gradient of approximately 0.01 feet/foot. This is consistent with the effects of recharge from the higher/elevated areas of the Station and discharge to the Rock River. However, at the PC-3B/DF-6 well cluster location on the former Dirk's Farm property, the downward vertical gradient is greater, at 0.443 feet/foot. The vertical gradients measured within the Galena-Platteville aquifer are in the same range as the measured horizontal hydraulic gradient.

There is only one cluster of wells in which both wells are screened within the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer: MW-20R and MW-21. The measured vertical hydraulic gradient at this well cluster is very low at 0.001 feet/foot. This suggests primarily horizontal flow within the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, which is consistent with the high conductivity of the St. Peter Sandstone.

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 31 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 The groundwater elevation data confirm that the Galena-Platteville and St. Peter Sandstone aquifers are not hydraulically connected. The groundwater elevations measured in wells that are screened in the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer are typically more than 50 feet lower than those in wells screened at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer. Vertical hydraulic gradients between these two aquifers, measured at five well clusters, range between 0.622 feet/foot and 1.893 feet/foot, with the average being 1.127 feet/foot. These are much greater than the horizontal gradients measured in either of the two aquifers. These groundwater data provide evidence that the shale of the Glenwood Formation, which separates the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer from the underlying St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, is acting as a local aquitard or semi-confining unit.

5.2.4 LATERAL GROUNDWATER FLOW AND VELOCITY Across the more than two-mile distance between the generating facility and the Rock River, the water table elevation drops approximately 160 feet, creating a shallow horizontal hydraulic gradient of approximately 0.014 feet/foot. The limestones and dolomites that comprise the Galena-Platteville aquifer generally have hydraulic conductivities that can vary significantly; a study for the Byron Salvage Site immediately to the north of the west portion of the station, reported mean hydraulic conductivities ranging from 0.31 feet/day to 240 feet/day with a primary porosity of around 10 percent (Kay et al., 1997). With a gradient of 0.014 feet/foot, the average shallow horizontal groundwater flow velocity can be calculated to be 15.8 feet/year to 12,200 feet/year.

The groundwater flow direction at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer has a southwest component, under a horizontal hydraulic gradient of approximately 0.011 feet/foot (Figure 5.6). However, the wells screened at the bottom of the aquifer are only located near the blowdown line, on the Former Dirk's Farm property, not across the entire length of the Station property. In this same area for the upper Galena-Platteville aquifer, the groundwater contours also suggest a component of flow to the southwest.

In St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, the groundwater contours suggest a groundwater flow to the west toward the Rock River, under a low horizontal hydraulic gradient of approximately 0.001 feet/foot (Figure 5.7). This is consistent with expected regional groundwater flow within the lower aquifer. Using the hydraulic gradient of 0.001 feet/foot with a reported hydraulic conductivity range of 2.0 feet/day to 8.7 feet/day (Kay et al., 1997) and a reported primary porosity of 0.14 (Kay et al., 1997) 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 32 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 yields an average horizontal groundwater velocity in the St. Peter Sandstone of 5.2 feet/year to 22.7 feet/year.

5.3 GROUNDWATER QUALITY During the blowdown line investigation and the fleetwide assessment, both CRA and Station personnel collected numerous samples from the vacuum breaker vaults and other Station locations, from nearby residential wells, from the blowdown line itself, from the on-Station CROP, and from a subset of the monitoring wells located on the Station property. As discussed in Sections 4.1 and 4.2, the samples were analyzed for tritium, and some of the samples were also analyzed for strontium-89/90 and additional radionuclides.

Table 5.2 presents a summary of tritium analyses for water samples collected by the Station from the vacuum breaker vaults, the beginning and end of the blowdown line, and the CROP. Table 5.3 presents a summary of tritium analyses for groundwater samples collected during both the blowdown line investigation and the fleetwide investigation. Table 5.4 presents a summary of tritium analyses for groundwater samples collected from residential water supply wells. Table 5.5 presents a summary of the other radionuclide analyses (strontium-89/90 and gamma-emitting radionuclides) for groundwater samples collected during both the blowdown line investigation and the fleetwide investigation.

The analytical data presented herein has been subjected to CRA's data validation process (see Appendix E for the data validation reports). CRA has used the data with appropriate qualifiers, where necessary.

The data reported in the figures and tables does not include the results of re-analyses or recounts that the laboratory completed, except if those results ultimately replaced an initial report. The tables and figures, therefore, include only the first analysis reported by the laboratory.

Revision 1 5.3.1

SUMMARY

OF BETA-EMITTING RADIONUCLIDES ANALYTICAL RESULTS 5.3.1.1 STATION SAMPLING POINTS During the blowdown line investigation, Station personnel collected multiple samples on different dates from the vacuum breaker vaults, the beginning and end of the blowdown line, and the CROP. A summary of the tritium results for the water samples collected from the Station sampling locations is provided in Table 5.2. The tritium data are presented graphically on Figure 5.8.

5.3.1.2 GROUNDWATER MONITORING WELL SAMPLES A summary of the tritium results for the groundwater samples collected during both the blowdown line investigation and the fleetwide investigation is provided in Table 5.3.

Figures 5.9 through 5.11 present the tritium data graphically for the groundwater samples collected on different dates from the monitoring wells screened in the upper portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, the bottom of Galena-Platteville aquifer, and the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer, respectively.

All tritium concentrations were below the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in 35 of the 39 groundwater samples collected.

Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L.

A summary of the strontium-89/90 results for the groundwater samples collected as part of the investigations that are the subject of this HIR is provided in Table 5.5.

Galena-Platteville Aquifer Groundwater samples were collected from 32 different monitoring wells screened in the upper portions of Galena-Platteville aquifer (Figure 5.9). Concentrations of tritium exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L for tritium were only detected in the groundwater samples collected from three of the monitoring wells: AR-2, AR-3, and AR-4. The most recent concentrations of tritium detected at each location were:

  • AR-2 432 +/- 140 pCi/L;
  • AR-3 234 +/- 128 pCi/L; and
  • AR-4 3,260 +/- 367 pCi/L.

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 34 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 The original groundwater sample collected from TW-13 had a tritium concentration less than the LLD of 200 pCi/L; however, a detection of tritium slightly greater than the LLD, 201 +/- 110 pCi/L, was detected in a duplicate groundwater sample collected as part of the fleetwide sampling event at the same time on the same date. In consideration of the original sample being less than the LLD, and the duplicate sample at 201 pCi/L with an error of +/- 110 pCi/L, the tritium concentration at this location is regarded as less than the LLD.

CRA collected five groundwater samples from monitoring wells installed at the bottom of Galena-Platteville aquifer (Figure 5.10), and only the samples from monitoring well AR-11 contained tritium at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L. The highest tritium concentration detected in a groundwater sample collected from monitoring well AR-11 was 2,340 +/- 282 pCi/L. Monitoring well AR-11 is a bedrock well located in a downgradient direction from monitoring well AR-4 and VB-4 (Figure 2.3),

and screened in a deeper portion of the bedrock (bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer) than AR-4 (upper portion of the Galena-Platteville aquifer) (Figure 5.2). The inferred vertical limits of the groundwater containing tritium exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L are depicted on Figures 5.2 and 5.3.

Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L.

A summary of the strontium 89/90 results for the groundwater samples collected as part of the investigations that are the subject of this HIR is provided in Table 5.5.

St. Peter Sandstone Aquifer CRA collected groundwater samples from four monitoring wells screened in the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer (Figure 5.11). None of the groundwater samples contained detectable concentrations of tritium above the LLD of 200 pCi/L.

Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L.

A summary of the strontium-89/90 results for the groundwater samples collected as part of the investigations that are the subject of this HIR is provided in Table 5.5.

5.3.1.3 RESIDENTIAL WATER SUPPLY WELLS Station personnel collected water samples from nine of the residences located adjacent to the Station property, along the blowdown line. In addition, a water sample was also 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 35 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 collected from the well of a residence located approximately 2 miles east of the Station (Goral Well) to be used as a background water sample.

Tritium was not detected above the LLD of 200 pCi/L in any of the 10 residential well samples collected. A summary of the tritium results for the residential water samples is provided in Table 5.4, and the tritium data is presented graphically on Figure 5.12.

Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L.

A summary of the strontium-89/90 results for the groundwater samples collected as part of the investigations that are the subject of this HIR is provided in Table 5.5.

5.3.2

SUMMARY

OF GAMMA-EMITTING RADIONUCLIDES ANALYTICAL RESULTS Gamma-emitting target radionuclides were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLD. CRA collected groundwater samples from 19 monitoring wells and the samples were analyzed for gamma-emitting radionuclides. A summary of the radionuclide results is provided in Table 5.5 and presented graphically on Figure 5.13.

Other non-targeted radionuclides were also included in the tables but excluded from discussion in this report. These radionuclides were either a) naturally occurring and thus not produced by the Station, or b) could be definitively evaluated as being naturally occurring due to the lack of presence of other radionuclides which would otherwise indicate the potential of production from the Station.

5.3.3

SUMMARY

OF FIELD MEASUREMENTS A summary of the field measurement results for the groundwater samples collected as part of the blowdown line investigation is provided in Table 4.3. A summary of the field measurement results for the groundwater samples collected as part of the fleetwide investigation is provided in Table 4.7. These field measurements included pH, Dissolved Oxygen, Conductivity, Turbidity and Temperature.

Revision 1 6.0 RADIONUCLIDES OF CONCERN AND SOURCE AREAS This section discusses radionuclides evaluated in this investigation, potential sources of the radionuclides detected, and their distribution.

6.1 GAMMA-EMITTING RADIONUCLIDES Gamma-emitting target radionuclides were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLD. Other non-targeted radionuclides were also included in the tables but excluded from discussion in this report. These radionuclides were either a) naturally occurring and thus not produced by the Station, or b) could be definitively evaluated as being naturally occurring due to the lack of presence of other radionuclides which would otherwise indicate the potential of production from the Station.

6.2 BETA-EMITTING RADIONUCLIDES Strontium-89/90 was not detected in any of the groundwater samples collected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2.0 pCi/L. Tritium was detected in four of the 39 total sample locations. Concentrations of tritium ranged between 234 +/- 128 pCi/L to 3,260 +/- 367 pCi/L.

Since only tritium was detected at concentrations greater than its LLD during the fleetwide investigation, the following sections focus on tritium; specifically, providing general characteristics of tritium, potential sources, distribution in groundwater, and a conceptual model for migration.

6.3 TRITIUM This section discusses the general characteristics of tritium, the distribution of tritium in groundwater and surface water, and the conceptual model of tritium release and migration.

6.3.1 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS Tritium (chemical symbol H-3) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. The most common forms of tritium are tritium gas and tritium oxide, which is also called "tritiated water."

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 38 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 The chemical properties of tritium are essentially those of ordinary hydrogen. Tritiated water behaves the same as ordinary water in both the environment and the body.

Tritium can be taken into the body by drinking water, breathing air, eating food, or absorption through skin. Once tritium enters the body, it disperses quickly and is uniformly distributed throughout the body. Tritium is excreted primarily through urine within a month or so after ingestion. Organically bound tritium (tritium that is incorporated in organic compounds) can remain in the body for a longer period.

Tritium is produced naturally in the upper atmosphere when cosmic rays strike air molecules. Tritium is also produced during nuclear weapons explosions, as a by-product in reactors producing electricity, and in special production reactors, where the isotopes lithium-7 and/or boron-10 are bombarded to produce tritium.

Although tritium can be a gas, its most common form is in water because, like non-radioactive hydrogen, radioactive tritium reacts with oxygen to form water.

Tritium replaces one of the stable hydrogen atoms in the water molecule and is called tritiated water. Like normal water, tritiated water is colorless and odorless. Tritiated water behaves chemically and physically like non-tritiated water in the subsurface, and therefore tritiated water will travel at the same velocity as the average groundwater velocity.

Tritium has a half-life of approximately 12.3 years. It decays spontaneously to helium-3 (3He). This radioactive decay releases a beta particle (low-energy electron). The radioactivity of tritium is the source of the risk of exposure.

Tritium is one of the least dangerous radionuclides because it emits very weak radiation and leaves the body relatively quickly. Since tritium is almost always found as water, it goes directly into soft tissues and organs. The associated dose to these tissues is generally uniform and is dependent on the water content of the specific tissue.

6.3.2 DISTRIBUTION IN STATION GROUNDWATER This section provides an overview of the lateral and vertical distribution of tritium found in groundwater beneath the Station. Tritium was only detected in groundwater at concentrations exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L near the vaults along the blowdown line.

The groundwater under the PA does not appear to be impacted by tritium based on the groundwater analytical results from the five monitoring wells installed in and around 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 39 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 the PA (AR-7 through AR-10 and CAR-3) in locations that are hydraulically downgradient of Station systems. Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from these five monitoring wells during the investigation.

Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in the water samples collected from the residential water wells. The St. Peter Sandstone is the primary aquifer for residential potable water in the area, and the water in the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer is separated from the water in the Galena-Platteville aquifer by the shale unit of the Glenwood Formation (see Section 5.1.2).

The only tritium concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L were detected during the blowdown line and fleetwide investigations in groundwater samples collected from four wells: AR-2, AR-3, AR-4, and AR-11. Monitoring wells AR-2, AR-3, and AR-4 screen the water table, and AR-11 is screened at the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer. These four locations are adjacent to the three vacuum breaker vaults VB-2, VB-3, and VB-4, that had water within the concrete vaults exhibiting the highest concentrations of tritium (see Figure 5.8).

The tritium concentrations detected in the groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells AR-2 and AR-3, which are near VB-2 and VB-3, are not much higher than 200 pCi/L. The concentrations in these two wells fluctuate, but are all less than 600 pCi/L. The detected tritium concentrations in the groundwater samples collected during the fleetwide investigation from monitoring wells AR-4 and AR-11 were 3,260 +/- 367 pCi/L and 2,340 +/- 282 pCi/L, respectively. These wells are near VB-4. AR-4 screens the water table, and AR-11 is deeper and screens the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer.

The original groundwater sample collected from TW-13 had a tritium concentration less than the LLD of 200 pCi/L; however, tritium was detected at a very low concentration, 201 +/- 110 pCi/L, in a duplicate groundwater sample collected as part of the fleetwide sampling event at the same time on the same date. In consideration of the original sample being less than the LLD, and the duplicate sample at just 201 pCi/L with an error of +/- 110, the tritium concentration at this location is regarded as less than the LLD.

Monitoring well TW-13 is a shallow well (18 feet deep) located near River Road and installed within the unconsolidated alluvial sediments.

In summary, there are only three areas at the Station where tritium has been detected.

They are all located near vacuum breakers along the blowdown line. These three areas are: VB-2 (well AR-2), VB-3 (well AR-3), and VB-4 (wells AR-4 and AR-11). The 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 40 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 groundwater impacted at each of these areas is localized within the Galena-Platteville aquifer. The inferred vertical limits of the groundwater containing tritium exceeding 200 pCi/L are depicted on Figures 5.2 and 5.3. Based on the data collected, none of the other aquifers appears to have been impacted.

6.3.3 CONCEPTUAL MODEL OF TRITIUM RELEASE AND MIGRATION This section presents CRA's conceptual model of groundwater and tritium migration at the Station.

As identified in Section 6.3.2, the groundwater under the PA does not appear to be impacted by tritium above the LLD of 200 pCi/L. Tritium was also not detected at concentrations exceeding the LLD of 200 pCi/L in the water samples collected from the residential water wells.

The highest concentrations of tritium detected in the Station sampling points were from water samples collected from within the vacuum breaker vaults along the blowdown line. The source of the tritium in the groundwater at the four wells is minor failures of the blowdown line vacuum breakers. This water originated from the blowdown line.

The water encountered in the vaults was pumped out and processed in accordance with the Station's NPDES permit. As discussed in Section 3.3.2.2, Exelon performed construction upgrades on each of the six breaker vaults to ensure that there will not be any future releases of tritium to the groundwater.

Sources and Migration of Tritium The detections of tritium exceeding 200 pCi/L in monitoring wells AR-2, AR-3, AR-4, and AR-11 appear to be localized and confined to the areas around the wells. Tritium was not detected at the LLD of 200 pCi/L in the groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells and residential wells downgradient of these locations. The source of the tritium in the groundwater at these four well locations is the blowdown line vacuum breakers (AFE-Byron-2). Once in the subsurface, the tritiated water migrated downward through the unsaturated overburden and fractured bedrock to the water table. Once at the water table, downward vertical gradients caused the tritiated water to migrate downward to the base of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, where tritium was detected in the groundwater sample from monitoring well AR-11 (Figure 5.2).

The shale of the Glenwood Formation has a low permeability and acts as a barrier to further downward migration of the tritiated water. Due to the low permeabilities of the 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 41 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 Galena-Platteville limestones/dolomites, combined with the shallow horizontal gradient, the tritiated water should not migrate very far laterally from the vacuum breakers. There is no indication from the HIR data that tritium-impacted groundwater in this area is migrating off the Station property.

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 42 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 7.0 EXPOSURE PATHWAY ASSESSMENT This section addresses the groundwater impacts from tritium and other radionuclides at the Station and potential risks to human health and the environment.

Based upon historical knowledge and data related to the Station operations and based upon radionuclide analyses of groundwater samples, the primary constituent of concern (COC) is tritium. The discussions that follow are focused on the exposure pathways related to tritium.

Teledyne Brown reports all samples to their statistically-derived minimum detectable concentration (MDC) of approximately 150 to 170 pCi/L, which is associated with 95 percent confidence interval on their hardcopy reports. However, the laboratory uses a 99 percent (+/- 3-sigma) confidence range for determining whether to report the sample activity concentration as detected or not. This 3-sigma confidence range typically equates to 150 (+/- 135.75) pCi/L.

Exelon has specified a LLD of 200 pCi/L for the Fleetwide Assessment. Exelon has also required the laboratory to report related peaks identified at the 95 percent confidence level (2-sigma).

This HIR, therefore, screens and assesses data using Exelon's LLD of 200 pCi/L. As is outlined below, this concentration is also a reasonable approximation of the background concentration of tritium in groundwater at the Station.

7.1 HEALTH EFFECTS OF TRITIUM Tritium is a radionuclide that decays by emitting a low-energy beta particle that cannot penetrate deeply into tissue or travel far in air. A person's exposure to tritium is primarily through the ingestion of water (drinking water) or through ingestion of water bearing food products. Inhalation of tritium requires the water to be in a vapor form (i.e., through evaporation or vaporization due to heating). Inhalation is a minor exposure route when compared to direct ingestion or drinking of tritiated water.

Absorption of tritium through skin is possible, but tritium exposure is more limited here versus direct ingestion or drinking of tritiated water.

Revision 1

7.2 BACKGROUND

CONCENTRATIONS OF TRITIUM The purpose of the following paragraphs is to establish a background concentration through review of various media.

7.2.1 GROUNDWATER Tritium is created in the environment from naturally occurring processes both cosmic and subterranean, as well as from anthropogenic (i.e., man-made) sources. In the upper atmosphere, "cosmogenic" tritium is produced from the bombardment of stable nuclides and combines with oxygen to form tritiated water, which will then enter the hydrologic cycle. Below ground, "lithogenic" tritium is produced by the bombardment of natural lithium isotopes 6Li (92.5 percent abundance) and 7Li (7.5 percent abundance) present in crystalline rocks by neutrons produced by the radioactive decay of uranium and thorium. Lithogenic production of tritium is usually negligible compared to other sources due to the limited abundance of lithium in rock. The lithogenic tritium is introduced directly to groundwater.

A major anthropogenic source of tritium comes from the former atmospheric testing of thermonuclear weapons. Levels of tritium in precipitation increased during the 1950s and early 1960s, coinciding with the release of significant amounts of tritium to the atmosphere during nuclear weapons testing prior to the signing of the Limited Test Ban Treaty in 1963, which prohibited atmospheric nuclear tests.

7.2.2 PRECIPITATION DATA Precipitation samples are routinely collected at stations around the world for the analysis of tritium and other radionuclides. Two publicly available databases that provided tritium concentrations in precipitation are Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP) and USEPA's RadNet database. GNIP provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected world wide from 1960 to 2006.

RadNet provides tritium precipitation concentration data for samples collected at Stations through the U.S. from 1960 up to and including 2006.

Based on GNIP data for sample stations located in the U.S. Midwest including Chicago, St. Louis and Madison, Wisconsin, as well as Ottawa Ontario, and data from the University of Chicago, tritium concentrations peaked around 1963. This peak, which approached 10,000 pCi/L for some stations, coincided with the atmospheric testing of 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 44 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 thermonuclear weapons. Tritium concentrations showed a sharp decline up until 1975 followed by a gradual decline since that time. Tritium concentrations in Midwest precipitation have typically been less than 100 pCi/L since around 1980.

The RadNet database for several stations in the U.S. Midwest (Chicago, Columbus, Indianapolis, Lansing, Madison, Minneapolis, Painesville, Toledo, and Welsch, MN) did not show the same trend, which can be attributed to pre-1995 data handling procedures.

The pre-1995 data were rounded to the nearest 100 pCi/L, which damped out variances in the data. The post-1995 RadNet data, where rounding was not applied, exhibit much more scatter, and similar to the GNIP data, the vast majority of the data were less than 100 pCi/L.

CRA constructed a non-parametric upper tolerance limit with a confidence of 95 percent and a coverage of 95 percent based on RadNet data for USEPA Region 5 from 2004 to 2005. The resulting upper tolerance limit is 133 pCi/L, which indicates that CRA is 95 percent confident that 95 percent of the ambient precipitation concentration results are less than 133 pCi/L. The statistical confidence, however, must be compared with the limitations of the underlying RadNet data, which does not include the minimum detectable concentration for a majority of the measurements. Some of the RadNet values less than 200 pCi/L may be approximated. Nevertheless, these results show a background contribution for precipitation of up to 133 pCi/L.

7.2.3 SURFACE WATER DATA Tritium concentrations are routinely measured in large surface water bodies, including Lake Michigan and the Mississippi River. Surface water data from the RadNet database for Illinois sampling stations include East Moline (Mississippi River), Moline (Mississippi River), Marseilles (Illinois River), Morris (Illinois River), Oregon (Rock River), and Zion (Lake Michigan). As is the case for the RadNet precipitation data, the pre-September 1995 Illinois surface water data was rounded to the nearest 100 pCi/L, creating a dampening of variances in the data. The post-1995 Illinois surface water data, similar to the post-1995 Midwest precipitation data, were less than 100 pCi/L with the exception of the Moline (Mississippi River) station. Tritium surface water concentrations at this location varied between 100 and 800 pCi/L, which may reflect local natural or anthropogenic inputs.

Recent surface water measurements for tritium sampling locations upstream of the Quad Cities Generating Station show that concentrations in the Mississippi River are consistently less than 200 pCi/L (Exelon, 2005).

Revision 1 These results indicate that there is a background tritium concentration in surface water that is typically less than 100 pCi/L, but have approached 800 pCi/L in the Mississippi River.

The USEPA RadNet surface water data typically has a reported "Combined Standard Uncertainty" of 35 to 50 pCi/L. According to USEPA, this corresponds to a

+/- 70 to 100 pCi/L 95 percent confidence bound on each given measurement. Therefore, the typical background data provided may be subject to measurement uncertainty of approximately +/- 70 to 100 pCi/L.

7.2.4 DRINKING WATER DATA Tritium concentrations in drinking water from the RadNet database for three Illinois sampling stations (Chicago, Morris, and East Chicago) exhibit similar trends as the precipitation and surface water data. As with the precipitation and surface water data, the pre-1995 data has dampened out variances due to rounding the data to the nearest 100 pCi/L. The post-1995 results show tritium concentrations in drinking water well less than 100 pCi/L and the tritium concentrations found in precipitation and surface water.

7.2.5 EXPECTED TRITIUM BACKGROUND FOR THE STATION As reported in the GNIP and RadNet databases, tritium concentrations in U.S. Midwest precipitation have typically been less than 100 pCi/L since 1980. Tritium concentrations reported in the RadNet database for Illinois surface water and groundwater, at least since 1995, have typically been less than 100 pCi/L. Based on the USEPA Region 5's 2004 to 2005 RadNet precipitation data, 95 percent of the ambient concentrations of tritiated water in Illinois are expected to be less than 133 pCi/L, based on a 95 percent confidence limit. Tritium concentrations in surface water and drinking water are expected to be comparable or less based on historical data and trends.

Concentrations in groundwater similar to surface water and drinking water are expected to be less as compared to precipitation values. The lower groundwater concentrations are related to the age of the groundwater as compared to the half-life of tritium. Deep aquifers in proximity to crystalline basement rock, however, potentially can also show elevated concentrations of tritium due to lithogenic sources.

Revision 1 As was noted in Section 7.0, the analytical laboratory is reporting tritium results to a LLD of 200 pCi/L. This concentration also represents a reasonable representation of background groundwater quality, given the data for precipitation, surface water, and drinking water.

Based on the evaluation presented above, the background concentration for tritium at the Station is reasonably represented by the LLD of 200 pCi/L.

7.3 IDENTIFICATION OF POTENTIAL EXPOSURE PATHWAYS AND POTENTIAL RECEPTORS Three potential exposure pathways were considered during the evaluation of tritium in groundwater:

  • potential groundwater migration to the Station's potable water supply well;
  • potential groundwater migration off the Station property to private water supply wells; and
  • potential groundwater migration off the Station property to a surface water body.

The following section provides an overview of each of these three potential exposure pathways for tritium in groundwater.

7.3.1 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO DRINKING WATER USERS AT THE STATION PROPERTY At the Station, the tritium detected in groundwater samples has been isolated to the Galena-Platteville aquifer, which is isolated from the deeper regional groundwater aquifer by the semi-confining Glenwood Formation. Groundwater quality data from production wells and monitoring wells at the Station located below this aquitard do not indicate concentrations of tritium greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L. As such, the tritium impact is limited to the Galena-Platteville aquifer. There are no water supply wells located on the Station property that draw water from the Galena-Platteville aquifer. The Station receives its potable water from two cased 1,500-foot bedrock wells on the Site, which are installed in the Ironton-Galesville Sandstone. The vertical movement of tritiated water from the Galena-Platteville aquifer into deeper formations is restricted by the semi-confining Glenwood Formation. Since vertical migration of tritiated water through the Glenwood Formation to the Ironton-Galesville Aquifer is 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 47 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1 restricted but theoretically not eliminated, this is a potentially complete exposure pathway but there is no current risk for groundwater ingestion at the Station.

7.3.2 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO DRINKING WATER USERS OFF THE STATION PROPERTY Based on the results of the investigations and the conceptual model, the only potentially complete exposure route (pathway) for tritiated water at the Station is ingestion of the groundwater at nearby private water supply wells. However, due to low permeabilities of the limestones and dolomites of the Galena-Platteville aquifer, along with the general hardness of the water, this aquifer is typically not used for potable water in the area.

The St. Peter Sandstone is the primary source for potable water in the area. The St. Peter Sandstone aquifer is separated from the Galena-Platteville aquifer by a low permeability shale of the Glenwood Formation. Residential water wells that are both off the Station property and in the direction of groundwater flow downgradient from the blowdown line typically obtain water from the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer. These water wells were sampled and were not impacted. In addition, none of the groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells near the property line contained tritium at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L. Therefore, although there is a potentially complete exposure pathway, there is no current risk of exposure associated with groundwater ingestion off the Station property.

7.3.3 POTENTIAL GROUNDWATER MIGRATION TO SURFACE WATER USERS Groundwater does not discharge to the local surface water drainages (ephemeral creeks) and the nearest wells located adjacent to the Rock River have not contained tritium.

There is no potentially complete exposure pathway, therefore there is no current risk of exposure associated with groundwater migration to surface water at the Station.

7.4

SUMMARY

OF POTENTIAL TRITIUM EXPOSURE PATHWAYS There are three potential exposure pathways for tritium at the Station:

  • potential groundwater migration to the Station's potable supply well; 045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 48 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1

  • potential groundwater migration off the Station property to private water supply wells; and
  • potential groundwater migration off the Station property to a surface water body.

Based upon the groundwater and surface water data provided and referenced in this investigation, none of the potential receptors are at risk of exposure to concentrations of tritium in excess of the USEPA drinking water standard (20,000 pCi/L).

7.5 OTHER RADIONUCLIDES Target radionuclides were not detected at concentrations greater than the LLDs in the groundwater samples collected. Other non-targeted radionuclides were also included in the tables but excluded from discussion in this report. These radionuclides were either a) naturally occurring and thus not produced by the Station, or b) could be definitively evaluated as being naturally occurring due to the lack of presence of other radionuclides which would otherwise indicate the potential of production from the Station.

Revision 1

8.0 CONCLUSION

S Based on all of the studies completed to date at the Station, CRA concludes:

Groundwater Flow

  • There are two groundwater aquifers within the first 230 feet beneath the Station: the Galena-Platteville aquifer (upper aquifer) and the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer (lower aquifer).
  • The two aquifers are separated by a semi-confining shale layer of the Glenwood Formation and, therefore, not hydraulically connected under the Station.
  • Groundwater (the water table) is first encountered in the upper fractured portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer. Near the Rock River, the bedrock has been eroded, and the water table is in unconsolidated alluvial material.
  • The general direction of groundwater flow in both aquifers is to the west toward the Rock River.
  • The groundwater flows radially away from the facility.
  • The horizontal gradient in the Galena-Platteville aquifer is shallow. There is a slight downward vertical gradient between the upper portion and bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer.

Groundwater Quality

  • Tritium concentrations in groundwater were not detected at concentrations greater than the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L.
  • Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in samples collected from the five monitoring wells located in the PA.
  • Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in 35 of the 39 groundwater samples collected. Concentrations of tritium in the four remaining samples, all collected near vacuum breakers, ranged between 234 +/- 128 pCi/L to 3,260 +/- 367 pCi/L.
  • Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the most recent water samples collected as part of this investigation.
  • Strontium-89/90 was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 2 pCi/L in any sample collected as part of this investigation.

Revision 1

  • Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in the water samples collected from the residential water wells.
  • The HIR data indicate that tritium is not migrating off the Station property.

AFE-Byron Former Fiberglass Blowdown Line

  • Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the 13 groundwater samples collected from the four monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Byron-1.
  • Strontium-89/90 was not detected at a concentration greater than the LLD of 2 pCi/L in any of the 13 groundwater samples collected from the four monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Byron-1.
  • Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from the four monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Byron-1.
  • There is no current impact from this AFE to groundwater.

AFE-Byron Vacuum Breaker Vaults

  • Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the groundwater samples most recently collected from monitoring wells near AFE-Byron-2.
  • Strontium-89/90 was not detected at a concentration greater than the LLD of 2 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells near AFE-Byron-2.
  • To the west of the generating facility, near the blowdown line, the concentrations of tritium were greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in four monitoring wells: AR-2, AR-3, AR-4, and AR-11. These four wells are adjacent to three vacuum breaker vaults: VB-2, VB-3, and VB-4. These vaults formerly contained water with elevated concentrations of tritium.
  • Two areas where tritium was found in the groundwater near VB-2 and VB-3 are limited to the shallow portions of the Galena-Platteville aquifer.
  • Near VB-4, the groundwater contains tritium down to the bottom of the Galena-Platteville aquifer.

Revision 1

  • The source of the tritium concentrations in the groundwater was periodic leaks during re-seating of the blowdown line vacuum breaker valves.
  • None of the tritium concentrations detected in the groundwater exceed the USEPA drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L.
  • The shale unit of the Glenwood Formation has a low permeability and acts as a barrier to further downward migration of impacted water down to the St. Peter Sandstone aquifer. Due to the low permeabilities of the Galena-Platteville limestones/dolomites combined with the shallow gradient of the water table, the tritiated water in the Galena-Platteville aquifer will not migrate very far laterally from the VB-2, VB-3, and VB-4 areas.
  • Tritiated groundwater at the Station is isolated in three areas, and the evidence indicates that it is not migrating off Station property. This is based upon the inferred slow groundwater flow velocities and that groundwater sampling results indicate that monitoring wells outside of these three areas are not impacted. The unimpacted wells include: monitoring wells located hydraulically downgradient, monitoring wells located at the property line, and residential water wells. The tritium detected in groundwater is not the result of large failures of the blowdown line, but of minor failures of the vacuum breaker valves to re-seat during blowdown line discharge events. No knowledge or evidence of large failures of or releases from the blowdown line have been documented or identified through the investigations.
  • Therefore, additional plume delineation activities or groundwater remediation are not warranted.

AFE-Byron-3 -Protected Area

  • Groundwater under the PA flows radially outward due to the topographic high on which the PA was constructed. The downgradient locations of the monitoring wells were selected based on this radial groundwater flow pattern. These monitoring wells are situated to provide for an adequate indication for future leak detection.
  • Tritium was not detected at concentrations greater than the LLD of 200 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from seven monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Byron-3.
  • Gamma-emitting radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations were not detected at concentrations greater than their respective LLDs in any of the groundwater samples most recently collected from seven monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Byron-3.

045136 (13) Byron Generating Station 52 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES

Revision 1

  • Strontium-89/90 was not detected at a concentration greater than the LLD of 2 pCi/L in any of the groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells in the vicinity of AFE-Byron-3.
  • There is no current impact from this AFE to groundwater.

Potential Receptors

  • Based on the results of this investigation 1 , there is no current risk from exposure to radionuclides associated with licensed plant operations through any of the identified potential exposure pathways.

This quality system applies to all activities of TBE-ES that affect the quality of analyses performed by the laboratory.

2.1 Policy The TBE quality policy, given in Company Policy P-501, is TBE will continually improve our processes and effectiveness in providing products and services that exceed our customers expectations.

This policy is amplified by this Laboratorys commitment, as attested to by the title page signatures, to perform all work to good professional practices and to deliver high quality services to our customers with full data integrity. (See Section 4.0 and Procedure 1005).

2.2 Quality System Structure The Quality System is operated by the organizations described in Section 3.0 of this Manual. The Quality System is described in this Manual and in the Procedures Manual, both of which are maintained by the QA Manager. Procedures are divided into 6 sections - Administrative, Methods, Equipments, Technical, Miscellaneous, and LIMS. This Manual is structured as shown in the Table of Contents and refers to Procedures when applicable. Cross references to the various imposed quality specifications are contained in Appendices to this Manual.

2.3 Quality System Objectives The Quality System is established to meet the objective of assuring all operations are planned and executed in accordance with system requirements. The Quality System also assures that performance evaluations are performed (see Procedure 4006), and that appropriate verifications are performed (see Procedures in the 1000 and 4000 series) to further assure compliance. Verification includes Page 10 of 32

examination of final reports (prior to submittal to customers) to determine their quality (see Procedure 4004).

To further these objectives, various in-process assessments of data, as well as assessments of the system, via internal audits and management reviews, are performed. Both internal experts and customer / regulatory agencies perform further assessments of the system and compliance to requirements.

2.4 Personnel Orientation, Training, and Qualification TBE provides indoctrination and training to employees and performs proficiency evaluation of technical personnel. This effort is described in Section 4.0.

3.0 ORGANIZATION, AUTHORITY, AND RESPONSIBILITY TBE has established an effective organization for conducting laboratory analyses at the Knoxville Environmental Services Laboratory. The basic organization is shown in Figure 3-1. Detail organization charts with names, authorities, and responsibilities are given in Procedure 1002. Job descriptions are given in Procedure 1006.

This organization provides clearly established Quality Assurance authorities, duties, and functions. QA has the organizational freedom needed to:

(1) Identify problems (2) Stop nonconforming work (3) Initiate investigations (4) Recommend corrective and preventive actions (5) Provide solutions or recommend solutions (6) Verify implementation of actions All Laboratory personnel have the authority and resources to do their assigned duties and have the freedom to act on problems. The QA personnel have direct, independent access to Company management as shown in Figure 3-1.

President VP VP Administration & QA Environmental Product Assurance Director Lab QA Manager Lab Operations Manager Program Lab Administration Managers Supervisor Staff Figure 3.1. Laboratory Organization Page 12 of 32

4.0 PERSONNEL ORIENTATION, DATA INTEGRITY, TRAINING, AND QUALIFICATION 4.1 Orientation All laboratory personnel must receive orientation to the quality program if their work can affect quality. Orientation includes a brief review of customer- and regulatory agency-imposed quality requirements, the structure of the QAM, and the implementing procedures. The goal of orientation is to cover the nature and goals of the QA program.

4.2 Data Integrity The primary output of the Laboratory is data. Special emphasis and training in data integrity is given to all personnel whose work provides or supports data delivery. The Laboratory Data Integrity Procedure (Procedure 1005) describes training, personnel attestations, and monitoring operations. Annual reviews are required.

4.3 Training The Quality Assurance Manager (QAM) maintains a training matrix indicating which laboratory personnel need training in which specific Procedures. This matrix is updated when personnel change or change assignments. All personnel are trained per these requirements and procedures. This training program is described in Procedure 1007. The assigned responsibilities for employees are described in Procedure 1002 (See Section 3.0) on Organization and in Procedure 1006, Job Descriptions. Refresher training or re-training is given annually as appropriate.

4.4 Qualification Personnel are qualified as required by their job description. Management and non-analysts are evaluated based on past experience, education, and managements assessment of their capabilities. Formal qualification is required of analysts and related technical personnel who perform laboratory functions. Each applicable person is given training and then formally evaluated by the Operations Manager (or his designees) and by QA. Each analyst must initially demonstrate capability to perform each assigned analytical effort. Each year, thereafter, he or she must perform similar analyses on Interlab Comparison Samples (see Procedure 4006) or on equivalent blanks and spikes samples. Acceptable results extend qualifications (certification). Unacceptable results require retraining in the subject method / Procedures. (See Procedure 1007 for added information, records, forms, etc. used.)

4.5 Records Records of training subjects, contents, attendees, instructors, and certifications are maintained by QA.

5.0 CUSTOMER INTERFACES 5.1 Interface Personnel The Laboratory has designated Program Managers as the primary interface with all customers. Other interfaces may be the QA Manager or the Lab Operations Manager.

5.2 Bid Requests and Tenders The Program Managers respond to customer requests for bids and proposals per Procedure 1014 for bids, proposals, and contract reviews. They clarify customer requests so both the customer and the lab staff understand requests. As responses are developed, internal reviews are conducted to ensure that requirements are adequately defined and documented and to verify that the Laboratory has adequate resources in physical capabilities, personal skills, and technical information to perform the work. Accreditation needs are reviewed. If subcontracts are required to perform any analysis, the subcontractor is similarly evaluated and the client notified in writing of the effort. Most qualifications are routine with standard pricing and the review of these quotes is performed by the Program Manager. Larger or more complex quotes are reviewed by the Operations Manager and the QA Manager (or designees). Evidence of review is by initialing and dating applicable papers, signatures on quotations, or by memo.

5.3 Contracts The Program Managers receive contract awards (oral or written) and generate the work planning for initiation preparation (charge numbers, data structure or contents in LIMS, etc.). They review contracts for possible differences from quotations and, if acceptable, contracts are processed. Documentation of the review is by initials and date as a minimum. Contract changes receive similar reviews and planning.

5.4 TBEs Expectation of Customers TBE expects customers to provide samples suitable for lab analysis. These expectations include:

Accurate and unambiguous identification of samples Proper collection and preservation of samples Use of appropriate containers free from external and internal contamination Integrity preservation during shipment and timely delivery of samples that are age sensitive Adequate sized samples that allow for retest, if needed Specification of unique MOA/MDC requirements Alerting the lab about abnormal samples (high activity, different chemical contents, etc.)

Chain of custody initiation, when required.

Page 14 of 32

5.5 Customer Satisfaction TBEs quality policy centers on customer satisfaction (See 2.0). TBE will work to satisfy customers through full compliance with contract requirements, providing accurate data and properly responding to any questions or complaints.

Customers are provided full cooperation in their monitoring of Laboratory performance. Customers are notified if any applicable State Accreditation is withdrawn, revoked, or suspended.

5.5.1 Customer Complaints Any customer complaints are documented and tracked to closure. Most complaints concern analysis data and are received by Program Managers. They log each such complaint, order retests for verification, and provide documented results to customers. Complaints may also be received by QA or Operations.

If complaints are other than re-test type, the nonconformance and corrective action systems (Sections 12 and 13) are used to resolve them and record all actions taken.

5.5.2 Customer Confidentiality All laboratory personnel maintain confidentiality of customer-unique information.

6.0 DOCUMENTATION GENERATION & CONTROL 6.1 General The documentation generation and control system is detailed in Procedure 1008. An overview is given below. The basic quality system documents are described in Section 2.0.

6.2 New Documentation Each Procedure and this QAM is written by appropriate personnel, validated if applicable (see Section 7.0), reviewed for adequacy, completeness, and correctness, and, if acceptable, accepted by the authorized approver [QA Manager, Operations Manager (or their designee)]. Both approvals are required if a Procedure affects both QA and Operations. (See Responsibilities in Section 3.0). These procedures control the quality measurements and their accuracy.

Each document carries a unique identification number, a revision level, dates, page numbers and total page count, and approver identification and sign off. If TBE writes code for software, the software is version identified and issued after Verification and Validation per Section 7.0.

6.3 Documentation Changes Each change is reviewed in the same manner and by the same people as new documentation. Revision identifications are updated and changes indicated by side bars, italicized words, or by revision description when practical. Obsolete revisions are maintained by QA after being identified as obsolete.

6.4 Documentation Lists and Distributions Computer indexes of documents are maintained by Quality showing the current authorized revision level of each document. These revisions are placed on the Laboratory server and obsolete ones are removed so that all personnel have only the current documents. If hard copies are produced and distributed, separate distribution lists are maintained indicating who has them and their revision level(s).

Copies downloaded off the server are uncontrolled unless verified by the user (on the computer) to be the latest revision.

6.5 Other Documentation In addition to TBE-generated documentation, QA maintains copies of applicable specifications, regulations, and standard methods.

6.6 Documentation Reviews Each issued document is reviewed at least every third year by the approving personnel. This review determines continued suitability for use and compliance with requirements.

7.0 DESIGN OF LABORATORY CONTROLS 7.1 General The Laboratory and its operating procedures are designed specifically for low level (environmental and in-plant) radioactive sample analysis. The various aspects of the laboratory design include the following which are discussed in subsequent paragraphs of this Section:

(a) Facility (b) Technical Processes and Methods (c) Verification of Design of Processes, Methods, and Software.

(d) Design of Quality Controls (e) Counting Instrument Controls 7.2 Facility The facility was designed and built in 2000 to facilitate correct performance of operations in accordance with good laboratory practices and regulatory requirements. It provides security for operations and samples. It separates sample storage areas based on activity levels, separates wet chemistry from counting instrumentation for contamination control, and provides space and electronic systems for documentation, analysis, and record storage. Procedure 4014 describes the facility, room uses, layouts, etc.

7.3 Technical Processes and Methods 7.3.1 Operational Flow The laboratory design provides for sample receipt and storage (including special environmental provisions for perishable items) where samples are received from clients and other labs (see Section 9.0). The samples are logged into the computer based Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and receive unique identification numbers and bar code labels. (See Procedure 4017 for LIMS description and user procedures). The Program Managers then plan the work and assure LIMS contains any special instructions to analysts. Samples then go to sample preparation, wet chemistry (for chemical separation), and counting based on the radionuclides. See Procedures in the 2000 and 3000 series. Analysts perform the required tasks with data being entered into logbooks, LIMS, and counting equipment data systems as appropriate. Results are collected and reviewed by the Operations Manager and Program Managers and reports to clients are generated (See Section 14.0). All records (electronic or hard copy) are maintained in files or in back-up electronic copies (see Section 15.0). After the required hold periods and client notification and approval, samples are disposed of in compliance with regulatory requirements (see Procedures 5003 and 5004).

Page 17 of 32

7.3.2 Methods The laboratory methods documented in the 2000 and 3000 series of Procedures were primarily developed by senior TBE laboratory personnel based on years of experience at our prior facility in New Jersey. They have been improved, supplemented and implemented here. Where EPA or other accepted national methods exist (primarily for water analyses under State certification programs - see Procedure 4010), the TBE methods conform to the imposed requirements or State accepted alternate requirements. Any method modifications are documented and described in the Procedure. There are no nationally recognized methods for most other analysis methods but references to other method documents are noted where applicable.

7.3.3 Data Reduction and Analysis Whenever possible automatic data capture and computerized data reduction programs are used. Calculations are either performed using commercial software (counting system operating systems) or TBE developed and validated software is used (see 7.4 below). Analysis of reduced data is performed as described in Section 14.0 and Procedure 4004.

7.4 Verification of Technical Processes, Methods, and Software 7.4.1 Operational Flow Verification The entire QA Manual and related procedures describe the verification of elements of the technical process flow and the establishment of quality check points, reviews, and controls.

7.4.2 Method Verifications Methods are verified and validated per Procedure 4007 prior to use unless otherwise agreed to by the client. For most TBE methods initial validation occurred well in the past. New or significantly revised Methods receive initial validation by demonstration of their performance using known analytes (NIST traceable) in appropriate matrices. Sufficient samples are run to obtain statistical data that provides evidence of process capability and control, establishes detection levels (see procedure 4009), bias and precision data (see Procedure 4011). All method procedures and validation data are available to respective clients. Also see Section 7.5 below for the Demonstration of Capability program.

7.4.3 Data Reduction and Analysis Verification Data reduction and analysis verification is performed by personnel who did not generate the data. (See Section 14.0).

7.5 Design of Quality Controls Page 18 of 32

7.5.1 General There are multiple quality controls designed into the laboratory operations.

Many of these are described elsewhere in this manual and include personnel qualification (Section 4.0), Document control (6.0), Sample identification and control (9.0), Use of reference standards (10.0), intra- and inter- laboratory tests (10.0), etc.

This Section describes the basic quality control systems used to verify Method capability and performance.

7.5.2 Demonstration of Capability (D of C)

The demonstration of capability system verifies and documents that the method, analyst, and the equipment can perform within acceptable limits. The D of C is certified for each combination of analyte, method, and instrument type. D of C's are certified based on objective evidence at least annually. This program is combined with the analyst D of C program (See Section 4.0). Initial D of C's use the method validation effort as covered above. Subsequent D of C's use Inter-Laboratory samples (Procedure 4006) or, if necessary, laboratory generated samples using NIST traceable standards. If results are outside of control limits, re-demonstration is required after investigation and corrective action is accomplished (See Sections 12.0 and 13.0) 7.5.3 Process Control Checks Process control checks are designed to include Inter-Lab samples, Intra-lab QC check samples, and customer provided check samples. 10% of laboratory analysis samples are for process control purposes.

7.5.3.1 Inter- Lab Samples. Inter-lab samples are procured or obtained from sources providing analytes of interest in matrices similar to normal client samples. These samples may be used for Demonstration of Capability of analyst's, equipment and methods. They also provide for independent insight into the lab's process capabilities. Any value reported as being in the warning zone (over 2 sigma) is reviewed and improvements taken. Any value failing (over 3 sigma) is documented on an NCR and formal investigation per Section 12.0 and 13.0 is performed. If root causes are not clearly understood and fixed, re-tests are required using lab prepared samples (See Procedure 4006).

7.5.3.2 QC Samples. QC samples, along with Inter-lab samples and customer check samples, are 10% of the annual lab workload for the applicable analyte and method. If batch processing is used, some specifications require specific checks with each batch or each day rather than as continuous process controls.

(See Procedure 4005)

QC samples consist of multiple types of samples including:

(a) Method blanks (b) Blank spikes (c) Matrix spikes Page 19 of 32

(d) Duplicates (e) Tracers and carriers Acceptance limits for these samples are given in Procedures or in lab standards. The number, frequency, and use of these sample types varies with the method, matrix, and supplemental requirements. The patterns of use versus method and the use of the resulting test data is described in Procedure 4005.

7.5.3.3 Customer Provided Check Samples. Customers may provide blind check samples and duplicates to aid in their evaluation of the Laboratory. When the lab is notified that samples are check samples their results are included in the QC sample percentage counts. Any reported problems are treated as formal complaints and investigated per Section 5.

7.6 Counting Instrument Controls The calibration of instruments is their primary control and is described in Section 11.0. In addition, counting procedures (3000 series) also specify use of background checks (method blank data is not used for this) to evaluate possible counting equipment contamination. Instrument calibration checks using a lab standard from a different source than the one used for calibration are also used.

Background data can be used to adjust client and test data. Checks with lab standards indicate potential calibration changes.

Page 20 of 32

8.0 PURCHASING AND SUBCONTRACT CONTROLS 8.1 General Procurement and Subcontracts efforts use the Huntsville-based Cost Point computer system to process orders. The Laboratory-generated Purchase Requisitions are electronically copied into Purchase Orders in Huntsville. The Laboratory also specifies sources to be used. Procured items and services are received at the Laboratory where receiving checks and inspections are made.

Laboratory Procedure 1015 provides details on the procurement control system at the Laboratory and references the Huntsville procedures as applicable.

8.2 Source Selection Sources for procurements of items and services are evaluated and approved by QA as described in Procedure 1015. Nationally recognized catalog item sources are approved by the QA Manager based on reputation. Maintenance services by an approved distributor or the equipment manufacturing company are pre-approved.

Sources for other services are evaluated by QA, based on service criticality to the quality system, by phone, mail out, or site visit.

Subcontract sources for laboratory analysis services are only placed with accredited laboratories (by NELAP, NUPIC, State, Client, etc.) as applicable for the type of analysis to be performed. QA maintains lists of approved vendors and records of evaluations performed.

8.3 Procurement of Supplies and Support Services 8.3.1 Catalog Supplies The Laboratory procures reagents, processing chemicals, laboratory glassware, consumables, and other catalog items from nationally known vendors and to applicable laboratory grades, purities, concentrations, accuracy levels, etc.

Purchase Requisitions for these items specify catalog numbers or similar call-outs for these off-the-shelf items. Requisitions are generated by the personnel in the lab needing the item and are approved by the Operations or Production Manager.

Reagents are analytical reagent grade only.

8.3.2 Support Services Purchase Requisitions for support services (such as balance calibration, equipment maintenance, etc.) are processed as in 8.3.1 but technical requirements are specified and reviewed before approvals are given.

Page 21 of 32

8.3.3 Equipment and Software Purchase Requisitions for new equipment, software programs, and major facility modifications affecting the quality system are reviewed and approved by the Operations Manager and the QA Manager.

8.4 Subcontracting of Analytical Services When necessary, the Laboratory may subcontract analytical services required by a client. This may be because of special needs, infrequency of analysis, etc.

Applicable quality and regulatory requirements are imposed in the Purchase Requisition and undergo a technical review by QA. TBE reserves the right of access by TBE and our client for verification purposes.

8.5 Acceptance of Items or Services Items and services affecting the quality system are verified at receipt based on objective evidence supplied by the vendor. Supply items are reviewed by the requisitioner and, if acceptable, are accepted via annotation on the vendor packing list or similar document. Similarly, equipment services are accepted by the requisitioning lab person. Calibration services are accepted by QA based on certification reviews. (See Section 11.0.)

Data reports from analytical subcontractors are evaluated by Program Managers and subsequently by the Operations Manager (or designee) as part of client report reviews.

Items are not used until accepted and if items or services are rejected, QA is notified and nonconformance controls per Section 12.0 are followed. Vendors may be removed from the approved vendors list if their performance is unacceptable.

Page 22 of 32

9.0 TEST SAMPLE IDENTIFICATION AND CONTROL 9.1 Sample Identification Incoming samples are inspected for customer identification, container condition, chain of custody forms, and radioactivity levels. If acceptable, the sample information is entered into LIMS which generates bar coded labels for attachment to the sample(s). The labels are attached and samples stored in the assigned location.

If environmental controls are needed (refrigeration, freezing, etc.), the samples are placed in these storage locations. If not acceptable, the Program Manager is notified, the customer contacted, and the problem resolved (return of sample, added data receipts, etc.). See Procedure 4003 for more information on sample receipt.

9.2 LIMS The LIMS is used to schedule work, provide special information to analysts, and record all actions taken on samples. See Procedure 4017 and the 6000 series of procedures for more information on LIMS operations.

9.3 Sample Control The sample, with its bar coded label, is logged out to the applicable lab operation where the sample is processed per the applicable methods (Procedures 2000 and 3000). The LIMS-assigned numbers are used for identification through all operations to record data. Data is entered into LIMS, log books (kept by the analysts) or equipment data systems to record data. The combination of LIMS, logbooks, and equipment data systems provide the Chain of Custody data and document all actions taken on samples. Unused sample portions are returned to its storage area for possible verification use. Samples are discarded after required time limits are passed and after client notification and approval, if required.

10.0 SPECIAL PROCESSES, INSPECTION, AND TEST 10.1 Special Processes The Laboratorys special processes are the methods used to analyze a sample and control equipment. These methods are defined in Procedures in the 2000 and 3000 series. These processes are performed to the qualified methods (see Section 7.0) by qualified people (see 4.0).

10.2 Inspections and Tests The quality of the process is monitored by indirect means. This program involves calibration checks on counting equipments (see Section 11.0), intra-laboratory checks, and inter-laboratory checks. In addition, some customers submit quality control check samples (blinds, duplicates, external reference standards). All generated data gets independent reviews.

10.2.1 Intra Laboratory Checks (QC Checks)

The quantity and types of checks varies with the method, but basic checks which may include blanks, spiked blanks, matrix spikes, matrix spike duplicates, and duplicates are used as appropriate for customer samples. This process is described in Procedure 4005 and in Section 7.0.

10.2.2 Inter Laboratory Checks TBE participates in Inter-lab performance evaluation (check) programs with multiple higher level labs. These programs provide blind matrices for the types of matrix/analyte combinations routinely processed by the Lab, if available. This program is described in Procedure 4006.

10.2.3 Data Reviews Raw data and reports are reviewed by the Operations Manager, or designees. This review checks for data logic, expected results, procedure compliance, etc. (See Section 14.0).

10.3 Control of Sampling of Samples Samples for analysis are supplied by customers preferably in quantities sufficient to allow re-verification analyses if needed. The samples are prepared for analysis by analysts and then an aliquot (partial sample extraction) is taken from the homogeneous customer sample for the initial analysis. Methods specify standard volumes of sample material required. Sampling data is recorded in LIMS and/or logbooks.

10.4 Reference Standards / Material Page 24 of 32

10.4.1 Weights and Temperatures Reference standards are used by the Laboratorys calibration vendor to calibrate the Labs working instruments measuring weights and thermometers.

10.4.2 Radioactive Materials Reference radioactive standards, traceable to NIST, are procured from higher level laboratories. These reference materials are maintained in the standards area and are diluted down for use by laboratory analysts. All original and diluted volumes are fully traceable to source, procedure, analyst, dilution, and acquisition dates. See Section 11.0 and Procedure 1009.

Page 25 of 32

11.0 EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE AND CALIBRATION 11.1 General There are two types of equipment used by the Laboratory: support equipment (scales, glassware, weights, thermometers, etc.) and instruments for counting. Standards traceable to NIST are used for calibration and are of the needed accuracy for laboratory operations. Procedures 1009, 4018, and 4019 describe the calibration and maintenance programs.

11.2 Support Equipment Analytical support equipment is purchased with the necessary accuracies and appropriate calibration data. If needed, initial calibration by the Laboratory or its calibration vendor is performed. Recalibration schedules are established and equipment recalibrated by the scheduled date by a calibration vendor or by Laboratory personnel. Maintenance is performed, as needed, per manufacturers manuals or lab procedures.

In addition to calibrations and recalibrations, checks are made on the continued accuracy of items as described in Procedure 1009. Records are maintained of calibration and specified checks.

11.3 Instruments Instruments receive initial calibration using radioactive sources traceable to NIST. The initial calibration establishes statistical limits of variation that are used to set control limits for future checks and recalibration. This process is described in Procedure 4018. Instruments are maintained per Instrument Manual requirements.

Recalibrations are performed per the Procedure.

Between calibrations, check sources are used to assure no significant changes have occurred in the calibration of items. Background checks are performed to check for possible radioactive contamination. Background values are used to adjust sample results. Hardware and software are safeguarded from adjustments that could invalidate calibrations or results.

11.4 Nonconformances and Corrective Actions If calibrations or checks indicate a problem, the nonconformance system (Section 12.0) and corrective action system (Section 13.0) are initiated to document the problem and its resolution. Equipment is promptly removed from service if questionable.

Page 26 of 32

11.5 Records Records of calibrations are maintained. Calibration certificates from calibration vendors are maintained by QA. Other calibration data and check data is maintained in log books, LIMS, or instrument software as appropriate and as described in Procedures 1009, 4018, and 4019.

Page 27 of 32

12.0 NONCONFORMANCE CONTROLS 12.1 General The nonconformance control system is implemented whenever a nonconforming condition on any aspect of Laboratory analysis, testing, or results exist. The system takes graded actions based on the nature and severity of the nonconformance. Nonconforming items or processes are controlled to prevent inadvertent use. Nonconformances are documented and dispositioned. Notification is made to affected organizations, including clients. Procedure 1010 describes the procedures followed. Sample results are only reported after resolution.

12.2 Responsibility and Authority Each Laboratory employee has the responsibility to report nonconformances and the authority to stop performing nonconforming work or using nonconforming equipment. Laboratory supervision can disposition and take corrective actions on minor problems. Any significant problem is documented by QA using the Laboratorys NCR system per Procedure 1010. QA conducts or assures the conduct of cause analyses, disposition of items or data, and initiation of corrective action if the nonconformance could recur.

12.3 10CFR21 Reporting The QA Manager reviews NCRs for possible need of customer and/or NRC notification per the requirements of 10CFR21. Procedure 1011 is followed in this review and for any required reporting.

Page 28 of 32

13.0 CORRECTIVE AND PREVENTIVE ACTIONS 13.1 General The Laboratory takes corrective actions on significant nonconformances (see Section 12.0). It also initiates preventive and improvement actions per the Company Quality Policy (see Section 2.0). The procedures for Corrective Action/Preventive Action systems are contained in Procedure 1012.

13.2 Corrective Actions Corrective actions are taken by Operations and Quality to promptly correct significant conditions adverse to quality. The condition is identified and cause analysis is performed to identify root causes. Solutions are evaluated and the optimum one selected that will prevent recurrence, can be implemented by the Laboratory, allows the Laboratory to meet its other goals, and is commensurate with the significance of the problem. All steps are documented, action plans developed for major efforts, and reports made to Management. QA verifies the implementation effectiveness. Procedure 1012 provides instructions and designates authorities and responsibilities.

13.3 Preventive Actions Preventive actions are improvements intended to reduce the potential for nonconformances. Possible preventive actions are developed from suggestions from employees and from analysis of Laboratory technical and quality systems by management. If preventive actions or improvements are selected for investigation, the issues, investigation, recommendations, and implementation actions are documented. Follow up verifies effectiveness.

Page 29 of 32

14.0 RESULTS ANALYSIS AND REPORTING 14.1 General The Laboratorys role is to provide measurement-based information to clients that is technically valid, legally defensible, and of known quality.

14.2 Results Review The results obtained from analytical efforts are collected and reviewed by the Operations Manager and the Program Manager. This review verifies the reasonableness and consistency of the results. It includes review of sample and the related QC activity data. Procedure 4002 describes the process. Any deficiencies are corrected by re-analyses, recalculations, or corrective actions per Sections 12.0 and 13.0. Use of the LIMS with its automatic data loading features (see Procedure 4017) minimizes the possibility of transcription or calculation errors.

14.3 Reports Reports range from simple results reporting to elaborate analytical reports based on the client requirements and imposed specifications and standards. (See Procedure 4004.) Reports present results accurately, clearly, unambiguously, objectively, and as required by the applicable Method(s). Reports include reproduction restrictions, information on any deviations from methods, and any needed data qualifiers based on QC data. If any data is supplied by analytical subcontractors (see Section 8.0), it is clearly identified and attributed to that Laboratory by either name or accreditation number.

If results are faxed or transmitted electronically, confidentiality statements are included in case of receipt by other than the intended client.

Reports are approved by the Program Manager and Operations Manager and record copies kept in file (See Section 15.0).

Page 30 of 32

15.0 RECORDS 15.1 General The Laboratory collects generated data and information related to quality or technical data and maintains them as records. Records are identified, prepared, reviewed, placed in storage, and maintained as set forth in Procedure 1003.

15.2 Type of Records All original observations, calculations, derived data, calibration data, and test reports are included. In addition QA data such as audits, management reviews, corrective and preventive actions, manuals, and procedures are included.

15.3 Storage and Retention Records are stored in files after completion in the lab. Files are in specified locations and under the control of custodians. Filing systems provide for retrieval.

Electronic files are kept on Company servers (with regular back up) or on media stored in fireproof file cabinets. Records are kept in Laboratory files for at least 2 years after the last entry and then in Company files for another year as a minimum.

Some customers specify larger periods - up to 7 years - which is also met. Generic records supporting multiple customers are kept for the longest applicable period.

15.4 Destruction or Disposal Records may be destroyed after the retention period and after client notification and acceptance, if required. If the Laboratory closes, records will go in to company storage in Huntsville unless otherwise directed by customers. If the Laboratory is sold, either the new owner will accept record ownership or the records will go into Company storage as stated above.

Page 31 of 32

16.0 ASSESSMENTS 16.1 General Assessments consist of internal audits and management reviews as set forth in Procedure 1013.

16.2 Audits Internal audits are planned, performed at least annually on all areas of the quality system, and are performed by qualified people who are as independent as possible from the activity audited. (The Laboratorys small size inhibits full independence in some technical areas.) Audits are coordinated by the Quality Manager who assures audit plans and checklists are generated and the results documented. Reports include descriptions of any findings and provide the auditors assessment of the effectiveness of the audited activity. Report data includes personnel contacted.

Audit findings are reviewed with management and corrective actions agreed to and scheduled. Follow up is performed by QA to verify accomplishment and effectiveness of the corrective action.

16.3 Management Reviews The Annual Quality Assurance Report, prepared for some clients, is the Management Review vehicle. These reports cover audit results, corrective and preventive actions, external assessments, and QC and inter-laboratory performance checks. The report is reviewed with Management by the QA Manager for the continued suitability of the Quality Program and its effectiveness. Any needed improvements are defined, documented, and implemented. Follow ups are made to verify implementation and effectiveness.
