The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix 3, Table 11. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of an individual in an unrestricted area to annual average concentra-tions exceeding the limits specified in Appendix 3, Table 11 of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR Part 20.106(b)) . The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to an individual at or beyond the unrestricted area boundary to < 500 mrem / year to the total body or to < 3000 mrem / year to the skin. These release rate limits also restrict, at all times , tne correspon iing thyroi'd dose rate above background to an infant via the cow-milk-infant pathway to < 1500 mrem / year for the nearest cow to the plant. For purposes of calculating doses resulting from airborne releases the main chimney is considered to be an elevated release point, and the reactor vent stack is considered to be a ground level release point.

This monitoring program thereby suppler.ents the radiological ef fluent monitoring program by verifying that the measureable concentrations of radioactive materials r,d levels of radiation are not higher than expected en the basis of the ef fluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways.

Program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The detection capabilities required by Table 4.12-1 are state-of-the-art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories. The specified lower limits of detection for 1-131 in water, milk and other food products correspond to approximately one quarter of the Appendix ! to 10 CFR Part 50 design objective dose-equivalent of 15 nrem/ year for atmospheric releases and 10 mrem / year for liquid releases to the most sensitive organ and individual. They are based on the assumptions given in Regulato y Guide 1.109, " Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Ff fluents for the Purpose .of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix 1," October 1977, except the change for an infant consuming 330 liter / year of drinking water instead of 510 liters / year.

3.8/4.8.0.5 LAND USE CENSUS This specification is provided to ensure that changes in the use of unrestricted areas are identified and that modifications to the monitoring program are made if required by the results of this census. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.S.3 of Appendix i to 10 CFR Part 50.

3.8/4.8.D.7 CROSSCHECK PROGRAM The requirement for participation in the EPA crosscheck program is provided to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measure-ments of radioactive material in environmental sample matrices are performed as part of the quality assurance program for envi ronmental moni toring in order to demonstrate that the resul ts are reasonably valid.

QUAE - CITIES DPR-29 Mechanical Vacuum Pump The purpose of isolating the mechanical vacuum line is to limit release of activity from the main condenser. During an accident, fission products would ce transported frcm the reactor through the main steamline to the main condenser. The fission product radio-activity would be sensed by the main steamline radioactivity monitors which initiate isolation.

Miscellaneous Radioactive Materials Sources The objective of this specification is to assure that leakage from byproduct, source and special nuclear material sources does not exceed allowable limits. The limitations on removable contamination for sources requiring leak testing, including alpha emitters, is based on 10 CFR 70.39(c) limits for plutenium.

a. The LLD is the smallest concentration of radioactive ra terial in a sample that will be detected wi th 95 parcent probability witn only 5 percent probability of falsely concluding its presence. This definition of LLD is that contained in EML Procedures Manual, HASL-300, 1972 Edition, revised through 1978. The srallest recordable quanti ty of any radioactive material is that amount which is greater than LLD by at least one digit in the least significant digi t of the LLD.

For a particular measurement system (which may include radiochemiccl sepa ra t ion)

LLD = 4.66 s3 EV -

2.22 - Y -

exp (-).it) t where:

LLD is the lower limit of detection as defined above (as pCi per unit

, mass or volume) .

sb is the square root of the background count or of the ccunt of a blank sample as appropriate (as counts) .

E is the counting efficiency (as counts per transformation) .

V is the sample size (in units of mass or volume).

2.22 is the number of transforma tions per minute per picocurie.

Y is the fractional chemical yield (when applicable).

A i s' the radioactive decay cons tan t for the particular radionuclide.

At is the elapsed time between sample collection and analysis. ,

z t is the duration of the count.

The value of sa used in the calculation of :na LLD for a detecti:n system shall be based on the actual observed background count er of the count of the blank sanples (as apprcpriate), rather than on an unver i fied theoret i ca l ly pred icted val ua. In calculating the LLD 3.8/4.8-28

QUAD-CITIES DPR-29 for a radionucl ide determined by ganma-ray s pect rcnet ry, the cack-ground shall include the contributions of other radionuclides present in the sample.

b. The LLO for environmental meas urements is defined as an a priori (before. the fact) limit representing the capability of a measure. ent system and not as an a posteriori (after the f act) ;imit for a par-ticular measurement.

DPR-30 so that none of the activity released during the refueling accident leaves the reactor building via the normal ventilation stack but that all the activity is processed by the standby gas treatment system.

He instrumentation which is provided to monitor the postaccident condition is listed in Table 3.2-4. The instrumentation listed and the limiting conditions for operation on these systems ensure adequate monitoring of the containment following a loss-of-coolant accident. Information from this instrumentation will provide the operator with a detailed knowledge of the conditions resulting from the accident; hased on this information he can make logical decisions regarding postaccident recovery.

He specifications allow for postaccident instrumentation to be out of service for a period of 7 days. This period is based on the fact that several diverse instruments are available for guiding the operator should an accident occur.

on the low probability of an instrument being out of service and an accident occurring in the 7-day period, and on engineering judgment.

. The normal supply of air for the control room ventilation system comes from outside the service building. In the -

event of an accident, this source of air may be required to be shut down to prevent high doses of radiation in the control room. Rather than provide this isolation function on a radiation monitor installed in the intake air duct, signals which indicate an accident,'i.e., high drywell pressure, low water level, main steamline high flow, or high radiation in the reactor building ventilation duct, will cause isolation of the intake air to the control room. The above trip signals result in immediate isolation of the control rocm ventilation system and thus minimize any radiadon dose.

The radioactive liquid and gaseous effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor the release of radioactive materials in liquid and gassous effluents during releases.

The alarm set points for the instruments are provided to ensure that the alarms will d occur prior to exceeding the limits of 10 CFR 20, u

The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 11. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of an individual in an unrestricted area to annual average concentra-tions exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table 11 of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR Part. 20.106(b)) . The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to an individual at or beyond the unrestricted area boundary to 1500 mrem / year to the total body or to 13000 mrem / year' to the skin. These release rate limits also restrict, at all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background to an infant via the cow-milk-infant pathway to 11500 mrem / year for the nearest cow to the plant. For purposes of calculating doses resulting frem airborne releases the main chimney is considered to be an elevated release point, and the reactor vent stack is considered to be a grcund level release point.

This specification implements the requi rements of 10 CFR Part 50 36a, General Design Criterion $0, of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and design objective Section !! .D of Appendix 1 to 10 CFR Part 50.

3.8/4.8.B.4 LIQUID HOLDUP TANKS Restricting the quantity of radioactive material, excluding Tritium and noble gases, contained in the specified tank provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tank's contents by misoperation (and not by breach of the tank's integrity) the resulting concentrations would be less than the limits of 10 CFR Part 20 Appendix B Table !!, Column 2 at the nearest surface water supply in an unres tricted area.

'3 8/4.8.D.1. MONITORING PROGRAM t The radiological monitoring program required by this specification pro-vides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides, which lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measureable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and modeling of the environmental exposure pathways.

Program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The detection capabilities required by Table 4.12-1 are state-of-the-art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories. The specified lower limits of detection for 1-131 in water, milk and other food products correspond to approximately o .e quarter of the Appendix ! to 10 CFR Part 50 design objective dose-equivalent of 15 r-em/ year for atmospheric releases and 10 mram/ year for liquid releases to the most sensitive organ and individual. They are based on the assumptions given in Regulatory Guide 1.109, " Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Ef fluents for the Purpose .of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix 1," October 1977, except the char.ge .for an infant consuming 330

. liter / year of drinking water instead of 510 liters / year.

3.8/4.8.D.5 .AMD USE CENSUS This specification is provided to ensure that changes in the use of unrestricted areas are identified and that modifications to the monitoring

program are made if required by the results of this census. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appendix ! to 10 CFR Part 50.

3.8/4.8.D.7 CROSSCHECK PROGRAM The requirement for participation in the EPA crosscheck program is provided to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measure-ments of radioactive material in envirer. mental sample matrices are performed . .

as part of the quality assurance program fo.r environmental monitoring in order to demonstrate that the results are reisonably valid.

QUAD-CITIES DPR-30 Mechanical Vacuum Pump The purpose of isolating the mechanical vacuum line is to limit release of activity from the main condenser. During an accident, fission products would be transported from the reactor through the main steamline to the main condenser. The fission product radio-activity would be sensed-by the main steamline radioactivity monitors which initiate isolation.

Miscellaneous Radioactive Materials Sources The objective of this specification is to assure that leakage from byproduct, source and special nuclear material sources does not exceed allowable limits. The limitations on removable contamination for sources requirin.g leak testing, including alpha emitters, is based on 10 CFR 70.39(c) limits for plutonium.

a. The lower limit of detection (LLD) should be < 10 percent of the con-centration specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 11, column 2.

The LLD is defined in Table liotation a. of Table 4.8-5

b. A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid' sampled is proportional to the quantity of liquid waste discharged and in which the method of sampling employed results in a specimen which is representative of the liquids released.

c. To be representative of the average quantities and concentration of radioactive materials in liquid effluents, samples shall be continuously collected in proportion to the rate of flow of the effluent stream.

d. A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume.

A continuous releasc is the discharge of liquid wastes of a nondiscrete volume; e.g., from a volume or system that has an input flew during the release.
