CHANNEL CALIBRATION

1.9 A CHANNEL CALIBRATION

shall be the adjustment, as necessary, of the channel output such that it responds with the necessary range and accuracy to known values of the parameter which the channel monitors.

The CHANNEL CALIBRATION

shall encompass the entire channel including the sensor and alarm and/or trip functions, and shall include the CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL

TEST. The CHANNEL CALIBRATION

may be performed by any series of sequen-tial, overlapping or total channel steps such that the entire channel is calibrated.

CHANNEL CHECK 1.10 A CHANNEL CHECK shall be the qualitative assessment of channel behavior during operation by observation.

This determination shall include, where possible, comparison of the channel indication and/or status with other indications and/or status derived from independent instrumentation channels measuring the same parameter.

CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL

TEST 1.11 A CHANNEL FUNCTIONAL

TEST shall be: a. Analog channels -the injection of a simulated signal into the channel as close to the sensor as practicable to verify OPERABILITY

including alarm and/or trip functions.

b. Bistable channels -the injection of a simulated signal into the sensor to verify OPERABILITY

including alarm and/or trip functions.

SOURCE CHECK 1.29 A SOURCE CHECK shall be the qualitative assessment of channel response when the channel sensor is exposed to a radioactive source.PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM 1.30 A PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM shall be the operating procedure and process parameters within which SOLIDIFICATION

of radioactive wastes from liquid systems is assured.SOLIDIFICATION

1.31 SOLIDIFICATION

shall be the conversion of radioactive wastes from liquid systems to a homogeneous, monolithic, immobilized solid with definite volume and shape, bounded by a stable surface of distinct outline on all sides (free-standing).

This specification is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents from the site to unrestricted areas will be less than the concentration levels specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II. The concentration limit for noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radio-isotope and its MPC in air (submersion)

was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) Publication

2.3/4.11.1.2 DOSE This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.A, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 5a. The Limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexi-bility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in liquid effleunts will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable".

Also, for fresh water sites with drtnking water supplies which can be potentially effected by plant operations, there is reasonable assurance that the operation of the facility will not result in radionuclide concentrations in the finished drinking water that are in excess of the requirements of 40 CFR 141. The Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculatiohal procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of an Individual through appropriate pathways Is unlikely to be substantially underestimated.

The equations specified in the Surveillance Requirements for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive materials in liquid effluents were developed from the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109,"Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the

EFFLUENTS BASES This specification applies to the release of liquid effluents from each reactor at the site. For units with shared radwaste treatment systems, the liquid effluents from the shared system are proportioned among the units sharing that system.The OPERABILITY

of the liquid radwaste treatment system ensures that this system will be available for use whenever liquid effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment.

The requirement that the appropriate portions of this system be used when specified provides assur-ance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable".

This specification imple-ments the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and the design objectives of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the liquid radwaste treatment system were specified as a suitable fraction of the guide set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for liquid effluents.

3/4.11.1.4 LIQUID HOLDUP TANKS Restricting the quantity of radioactive material contained in the specified tanks provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tank's contents, the resulting dose or dose commitment to an individual in an unrestricted area will not exceed 0.5 rem.3/4.11.2 GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 3/4.11.2.1 DOSE This specification is provided to ensure that the dose at the unrestricted area boundary from gaseous effluents from all units on the site will be within the annual dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20. The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II. These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of an individual either within or outside the.unrestricted boundary, to annual average concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table II of 10 CFR Part 20 CIO CFR Part 20.106(b)l.

For individuals who may at times be within the unrestricted boundary, the occupancy of the individual will be sufficiently low to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the nearest unrestricted area.

These release rate limits also restrict, it all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background to an infant via the cow-milk-infant pathway to < 15Q0 mrem/year for the nearest cow to the plant.This specification applies to the release of gaseous effluents from each reactor at the site. For units with shared radwaste treatment systems, the gaseous effluents from the shared system are proportioned among the units sharing that system.3/4.11.2.2 DOSE, NOBLE GASES This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.B, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The Limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II.B of Appendix I. The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable".

The Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of an individual through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated.

The equations specified in the Surveillance Requirements for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive noble gases in gaseous effluents were developed from the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109,"Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the

Purpose

of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dilspersl.on of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water Cooled Reactors," Revtsion 1, July 1977.

The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexi-bility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable".

The Surveillance Requirements implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of an individual through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated.

The equations specified in the Surveillance Requirements for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of the subject materials were also developed using the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.10%, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the

Purpose

of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977 and Regulatory Guide 1.111, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water-Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977. As with the equations used in Specification

4.2.2.2.1, these equations also provide for determining the actual doses based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions.

The release rate specifications for radioiodines, radioactive material in particulate form and radionuclides other than noble gases are dependent on the existing radionuclide pathways to man, in the unrestricted area.The pathways which were examined in the development of these specifications were: 12 individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, 21 deposition of radionuclides onto green leafy vegetation with subsequent consumption by man, 3) deposition onto grassy areas where mtilk animals and meat producing animals graze with consumption of the mtlk and meat by man, and 41 deposition on the ground with subsequent exposure of man.3/4.11.2.4 GASEOUS WASTE TREATMENT The OPERABILITY

of the gaseous radwaste treatment system ensures that the system will be available for use whenever gaseous effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment.

The requirement that the appropriate portions of this system be used when specified provides reason-able assurance that the releases of radioactive, materials in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as ts reasonably achievable".

This specifi-cation implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, and the design objectives of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the gaseous radwaste treatment system were specified as a suttable fraction of the guide set forth in Sections II.B and II.C of Appendix I, l0 CFR Part 5Q, for gaseous effluents.

GAS MIXTURE This specification is provided to ensure that the concentration of potentially explosive gas mixtures contained in the waste gas holdup system is maintained below the flammability limits of hydrogen and oxygen.(Automatic control features are included in the system to prevent the hydrogen and oxygen concentrations from reaching these flammability limits.These automatic control features include isolation of the source of hydrogen and/or oxygen, automatic diversion to recombiners, or injection of dilutants to reduce the concentration below the flammability limits.)Maintaining the concentration of hydrogen and oxygen below their flam-mability limits provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials will be controlled in conformance with the requirements of General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.3/4.11.2.6 GAS STORAGE TANKS Restricting the quantity of radioactivity contained in each gas storage tank provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tanks contents, the resulting total body exposure to an individual at the nearest exclusion area boundary will not exceed 0.5 rem.This is consistent with Standard Review Plan 15.7.1, "Waste Gas System Failure".3/4.11.3 SOLID RADIOACTIVE

WASTE The OPERABILITY

of the solid radwaste system ensures that the system will be available for use whenever solid radwastes require processing and packaging prior to being shipped offsite. This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a and General Design Criteria 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50. The process parameters included in establish- ing the PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM may include, but are not limited to waste type, waste pH, waste/lIquid/solIdification agent/catalyst ratios, waste oil content, waste principal chemical constituents, mixing and curing times.PWR-STS-I B 3/4 11-5

MONITORING

BASES 3/4.12.1 MONITORING

PROGRAM The radiological monitoring program required by this specification provides 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 measur-able 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.

The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least the first three years of commercial operation.

Following this period, 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 I to 10 CFR Part 50 design objective dose-equivalent of 15 mrem/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 Regulatory Guide 1.109, "Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the

Purpose

of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," March 1976, except the change for an infant consuming

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

3/4.12.2 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.B.3 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. Restricting the census to gardens of greater than 500 square feet provides assurance that significant exposure pathways via leafy vegetables will be identified and monitored since a garden of this size is the minimum required to produce the quantity (26 kg/year) of leafy vegetables assumed in Regulatory Guide 1.109 for consumption by a child.To determine this minimum garden size, the following assumptions were used, 1) that 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegetation (i.e., similar to lettuce and cabbage), and 2) a vegetation yield of 2 kg/square meter.PWR-STS-I
