The methodology detailed In this manual is intended for the calculation of radiation doses during routine (i.e., non-accident) conditions.
* The methodology and parameters for the offsite dose calculations used by the nuclear power stations to assess impact on the environment and compliance with regulations.
The calculations are normally performed using a computer program.Manual calculations may be performed in lieu of the computer program.The dose effects of airborne radioactivity releases predominately depend on meteorological conditions (wind speed, wind direction, and atmospheric stability).
The methodology detailed In this manual is intended for the calculation of radiation doses during routine (i.e., non-accident) conditions. The calculations are normally performed using a computer program.
For airborne effluents, the dose calculations prescribed in this manual are based on historical average atmospheric conditions.
Manual calculations may be performed in lieu of the computer program.
This methodology is appropriate for estimating annual average dose effects and is stipulated in the Bases Section of the Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS) of all ComEd nuclear power stations.1.1 STRUCTURE OF THIS MANUAL This manual is the ODCM for all ComEd nuclear power stations.
The dose effects of airborne radioactivity releases predominately depend on meteorological conditions (wind speed, wind direction, and atmospheric stability). For airborne effluents, the dose calculations prescribed in this manual are based on historical average atmospheric conditions. This methodology is appropriate for estimating annual average dose effects and is stipulated in the Bases Section of the Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS) of all ComEd nuclear power stations.
It is divided into two parts. The material In the first part is generic (applicable to more than one station) and consists of Chapters 1 through 7 and Appendices A through C. The material in the second part is station (or site) specific.Therefore, there are six separate sets of station-specific sections each containing three chapters (chapters 10, 11, 12) and an appendix (App. F).The chapters of the generic section provide a brief Introduction to and overview of ComEd's offsite dose calculation methodology and parameters.

This chapter of the ODCM serves to illustrate the regulations and requirements that define and are applicable to thd ODCM. Any information provided in the ODCM concerning specific regulations are not a substitute for the regulations as found in the CFR or Technical Specifications.
This chapter of the ODCM serves to illustrate the regulations and requirements that define and are applicable to thd ODCM. Any information provided in the ODCM concerning specific regulations are not a substitute for the regulations as found in the CFR or Technical Specifications.
2.1 CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS Various sections of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) require nuclear power stations to be designed and operated In a manner that limits the radiation exposure to members of the public. These sections specify limits on offsite radiation doses and on effluent radioactivity concentrations and they also require releases of radioactivity to be "As Low As Reasonably Achievable".
2.1       CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS Various sections of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) require nuclear power stations to be designed and operated In a manner that limits the radiation exposure to members of the public. These sections specify limits on offsite radiation doses and on effluent radioactivity concentrations and they also require releases of radioactivity to be "As Low As Reasonably Achievable". These requirements are contained in 10CFR20, 10CFR50 and 40CFR190. In addition, 40CFRI41 Imposes limits on the concentration of radioactivity in drinking water provided by the operators of public water systems.
These requirements are contained in 10CFR20, 10CFR50 and 40CFR190.
2.1.1     10CFR20, Standards for Protection Against Radiation This revision of the ODCM addresses the requirements of 10CFR20. The iOCFR20 dose limits are summarized in Table 2-1.
In addition, 40CFRI41 Imposes limits on the concentration of radioactivity in drinking water provided by the operators of public water systems.2.1.1 1OCFR20, Standards for Protection Against Radiation This revision of the ODCM addresses the requirements of 10CFR20. The iOCFR20 dose limits are summarized in Table 2-1.2.1.2 Design Criteria (Appendix A of IOCFR50)Section 50.36 of IOCFR50 requires that an applica.tion for an operating license include proposed Technical Specifications.
2.1.2     Design Criteria (Appendix A of IOCFR50)
Final Technical Specifications for each station are developed through negotiation between the applicant and the NRC. The Technical Specifications are then issued as a part of the operating license, and the licensee is required to operate the facility In accordance with them.Section 50.34 of 1OCFR50 states that an application for a license must state the principal design criteria of the facility.
Section 50.36 of IOCFR50 requires that an applica.tion for an operating license include proposed Technical Specifications. Final Technical Specifications for each station are developed through negotiation between the applicant and the NRC. The Technical Specifications are then issued as a part of the operating license, and the licensee is required to operate the facility In accordance with them.
Minimum requirements are contained in Appendix A of lOCFR50.2.1.3 ALARA ProvisIons (Appendix I of 10CFR50)Sections 50.34a and 50.36a of IOCFR50 require that the nuclear plant design and the station RETS have provisions to keep levels of radioactive materials in effluents to unrestricted areas "As Low As Reasonably Achievable" (ALARA). Although IOCFR50 does not impose specific limits on releases, Appendix I of 1 OCFR50 does provide numerical design objectives and suggested limiting conditions for operation.
Section 50.34 of 10CFR50 states that an application for a license must state the principal design criteria of the facility. Minimum requirements are contained in Appendix A of 10CFR50.
According to Section I of Appendix I of 10CFR50, design objectives and limiting conditions for operation, conforming to the guidelines of Appendix I "shall be deemed a conclusive showing of compliance with the"As Low As Reasonably Achievable" requirements of IOCFR50.34a and 50.36a." An applicant must use calculations to demonstrate conformance with the design objective dose limits of Appendix I. The calculations are to be based on models and data such that the actual radiation exposure of an individual is "unlikely to be substantially underestimated" (see 10CFR50 Appendix I, Section 1Il.A.1)..
2.1.3     ALARA ProvisIons (Appendix I of 10CFR50)
The guidelines in Appendix I call for an investigation, corrective action and a report to the NRC whenever the calculated dose due to the radioactivity released in a calendar quarter exceeds one-half of an annual design objective.
Sections 50.34a and 50.36a of IOCFR50 require that the nuclear plant design and the station RETS have provisions to keep levels of radioactive materials in effluents to unrestricted areas "As Low As Reasonably Achievable" (ALARA). Although IOCFR50 does not impose specific limits on releases, Appendix I of 10CFR50 does provide numerical design objectives and suggested limiting conditions for operation.
The guidelines also require a surveillance program to monitor releases, monitor the environment and identify changes in land use.giodcnlgenedclrev2-01 2
According to Section I of Appendix I of 10CFR50, design objectives and limiting conditions for operation, conforming to the guidelines of Appendix I "shall be deemed a conclusive showing of compliance with the "As Low As Reasonably Achievable" requirements of IOCFR50.34a and 50.36a."
Revision 2.0 April 1999 2.1.4 40CFRI90, Environmental Radiation Protectilon Standards for Nuclear Power Operations Under an agreement between the NRC and the EPA, the NRC stipulated to its licensees In Generic Letter 79-041 that "Compliance with Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (RETS), NUREG-0472 (Rev.2)for PWR's or NUREG-0473 (Rev.2) for BWR's,implements the LWR provisi6os to meet 4OCFRI90". (See Reference 103 and 49.)The regulations of 40CFR190 limit radiation doses received by members of the public as a result of operations that are part of the uranium fuel cycle. Operations must be conducted in such a manner as to provide reasonable assurance that the annual dose equivalent to any member of the public due to radiation and to planned discharges of radioactive materials does not exceed the following limits:* 25 mrem to the whole body 75 mrem to the thyroid*
An applicant must use calculations to demonstrate conformance with the design objective dose limits of Appendix I. The calculations are to be based on models and data such that the actual radiation exposure of an individual is "unlikely to be substantially underestimated" (see 10CFR50 Appendix I, Section 1Il.A.1)..
* 25 mrem to any other organ An important difference between the design objectives of 1OCFR50 and the limits of 40CFR190 is that 10CFR50 addresses only doses due to radioactive effluents.
The guidelines in Appendix I call for an investigation, corrective action and a report to the NRC whenever the calculated dose due to the radioactivity released in a calendar quarter exceeds one-half of an annual design objective. The guidelines also require a surveillance program to monitor releases, monitor the environment and identify changes in land use.
40CFRI90 limits doses due to effluents and also to radiation sources maintained on site. See Section 2.4 for further discussion of the differences between the requirements of I OCFR50 Appendix I and 40CFRI 90.2.1.5 40CFRI41, National Primary Drinking Water Reg'ulations The following radioactivity limits for community water systerms were established in the July, 1976 Edition of 40CFRI41:* Combined Ra-226 and Ra-228: < 5-pCVL.* Gross alpha (particle activity including Ra-226 but excluding radon and uranium):  
giodcnlgenedclrev2-01                               2

The responsibility for monitoring radioactivity in a community water system falls on the supplier of the water.However, some of the ComEd stations have requirements related to 40CFRI41 in their specific RETS. For calculational methodology, see Section A.6 of Appendix A.2.2 RADIOLOGICAL EFFLUENT TECHNICAL STANDARDS The Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS) were formerly a subset of the Technical Specifications.
Revision 2.0 April 1999 2.1.4   40CFRI90, Environmental Radiation Protectilon Standards for Nuclear Power Operations Under an agreement between the NRC and the EPA, the NRC stipulated to its licensees In Generic Letter 79-041 that "Compliance with Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (RETS), NUREG-0472 (Rev.2) for PWR's or NUREG-0473 (Rev.2) for BWR's,implements the LWR provisi6os to meet 4OCFRI90". (See Reference 103 and 49.)
They implement provisions of the Code of Federal Regulations aimed at limiting offsite radiation dose. The NRC published Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for PWRs (Reference
The regulations of 40CFR190 limit radiation doses received by members of the public as a result of operations that are part of the uranium fuel cycle. Operations must be conducted in such a manner as to provide reasonable assurance that the annual dose equivalent to any member of the public due to radiation and to planned discharges of radioactive materials does not exceed the following limits:

* 25 mrem to the whole body 75 mrem to the thyroid
: 3) as guidance to assist in the development of technical specifications.
      *
These documents have undergone frequent minor revisions to reflect changes in plant design and evolving regulatory concerns.
* 25 mrem to any other organ An important difference between the design objectives of 10CFR50 and the limits of 40CFR190 is that 10CFR50 addresses only doses due to radioactive effluents. 40CFRI90 limits doses due to effluents and also to radiation sources maintained on site. See Section 2.4 for further discussion of the differences between the requirements of I OCFR50 Appendix I and 40CFRI 90.
The Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications have been removed from the Technical Specifications and placed In the ODCM as the Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS) (see Reference 90). The RETS of each station are similar but not Identical to the guidance of the Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications.

2.3       OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL The NRC in Generic Letter 89-01 defines the ODCM as-follows (not verbatim) (see Reference 90):
Revision 2.0 April 1999 2A OVERLAPPING REQUIREMENTS In 10CFR20, 10CFR50 and 40CFRI90, there are overlapping requirements regarding offsite radiation dose and dose commitment to the whole body. In 10CFR20.1301 the total elective dose equivalent to a memnber of the public is limited to 100 mrem per.calendar year. In addition, Appendix I to IOCFR50 establishes design objectives on annual total body dose or dose commitment of 3 mrem per reactor for liquid effluents and 5 mrem per reactor for gaseous effluents (see 1OCFR50 Appendix I, Sections ILA and ll1.B.2(a)).
The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) shall contain the methodology and parameters used in the calculation of offsite doses resulting from radioactive gaseous and liquid effluents, in the calculation of gaseous and liquid effluent monitoring Alarm/Trip Setpoints, and in the conduct of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. The ODCM shall also contain (1) the Radioactive Effluent Controls and Radiological Environmental Monitoring Programs and (2) descriptions of the Information that should be included in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating and Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Reports.
Finally, 40CFRI 90 limits annual whole body dose or dose commitment to a member of the public to 25 mrem due to all uranium fuel cycle operations.
Additional requirements for the content of the ODCM are contained throughout the text of the RETS.
While these dose limits/design objectives appear to overlap, they are different and each is addressed separately by the RETS. Calculations are made and reports are generated to demonstrate compliance to all regulations.

Finally, 40CFRI 90 limits annual whole body dose or dose commitment to a member of the public to 25 mrem due to all uranium fuel cycle operations.
In general, the dose receiver spends time in the locations that result in maximum direct dose exposure and inhales and ingests radioactivity at locations that yield maximum pathway doses. Thus, the dose calculated is very conservative compared to the "average" (or typical) dose recipient who does not go out of the way to maximize radioactivity uptakes and exposure.Finally Table 2-3 relates the dose component (or pathway) to specific ODCM equations and the appropriate regulation.
While these dose limits/design objectives appear to overlap, they are different and each is addressed separately by the RETS.

Figure 3-1 illustrates some of the potential radiation exposure pathways to humans due to routine operation of a nuclear power station. These exposure pathways may be grouped into three categories:
Figure 3-1 illustrates some of the potential radiation exposure pathways to humans due to routine operation of a nuclear power station. These exposure pathways may be grouped into three categories:
* AirborneReleases Exposures resulting from radioactive materials released with gaseous effluents to the atmosphere.
* AirborneReleases Exposures resulting from radioactive materials released with gaseous effluents to the atmosphere.
* Liquid Releases Exposures resulting from radioactive materials released with liquid discharges to bodies of* water.* Radiation from Contained Sources Exposures to radiation from contained radioactive sources.When performing radiation dose calculations, only exposure pathways that significantly contribute (2** 10%) to the total dose of interest need to be evaluated.
* Liquid Releases Exposures resulting from radioactive materials released with liquid discharges to bodies of
The radiation dose from air and water exposure* pathways are routinely evaluated. (see Regulatory Guide 1.109, Reference 6.)3.1 AIRBORNE RELEASES For airborne releases of radioactivity (Figure 3-1), the NRC considers the following pathways of radiation exposure of persons:* Radiation from radioactivity airborne In the effluent plume.* Radiation from radioactivity deposited by the plume on the ground.* Ingestion of radioactivity on, or in, edible vegetation (from direct plume deposition or from the transfer of radioactivity deposited on the soil).* Ingestion of radioactivity that entered an animal food product (milk or meat) because the animal ingested contaminated feed, with the contamination due either to direct deposition on foliage or to uptake from the soil.* Inhalation of radioactivity In the plume.ComEd considers these same pathways with the exception that the transfer of radioactivity from soil to vegetation is omitted. .This pathway was determined to be of minimal significance In relation to the other airborne exposure pathways.3.2 LIQUID RELEASES For liquid releases of radioactivity (Figure 3-1), the NRC considers the following pathways of radiation exposure of persons: 0 Direct exposure to radioactivity in water while engaging in recreational activities such as swimming and boating.* Exposure to radiation from shoreline sediments contaminated by water containing radioactivity from station liquid discharges.
* water.
* Radiation from Contained Sources Exposures to radiation from contained radioactive sources.
When performing radiation dose calculations, only exposure pathways that significantly contribute (2
  ** 10%) to the total dose of interest need to be evaluated. The radiation dose from air and water exposure
* pathways are routinely evaluated. (see Regulatory Guide 1.109, Reference 6.)
3.1     AIRBORNE RELEASES For airborne releases of radioactivity (Figure 3-1), the NRC considers the following pathways of radiation exposure of persons:
* Radiation from radioactivity airborne Inthe effluent plume.
* Radiation from radioactivity deposited by the plume on the ground.
* Ingestion of radioactivity on, or in, edible vegetation (from direct plume deposition or from the transfer of radioactivity deposited on the soil).
* Ingestion of radioactivity that entered an animal food product (milk or meat) because the animal ingested contaminated feed, with the contamination due either to direct deposition on foliage or to uptake from the soil.
* Inhalation of radioactivity In the plume.
ComEd considers these same pathways with the exception that the transfer of radioactivity from soil to vegetation is omitted. .This pathway was determined to be of minimal significance In relation to the other airborne exposure pathways.
3.2     LIQUID RELEASES For liquid releases of radioactivity (Figure 3-1), the NRC considers the following pathways of radiation exposure of persons:
0   Direct exposure to radioactivity in water while engaging in recreational activities such as swimming and boating.
* Exposure to radiation from shoreline sediments contaminated by water containing radioactivity from station liquid discharges.
* Ingestion of edible vegetation contaminated by irrigation with water containing radioactivity from station liquid discharges.
* Ingestion of edible vegetation contaminated by irrigation with water containing radioactivity from station liquid discharges.
giodcn/generic/rev2-/2 12 Revision 2.0 April 1999* Ingestion of radioactivity from animal food products (milk or meat) resulting from the animal either drinking water contaminated by radioactive liquid effluents or from the animal eating feed or vegetation contaminated by irrigation with such water.* Ingestion of aquatic food (e.g., fish) obtained from the body of water to which radioactive station effluents are discharged.
giodcn/generic/rev2-/2                               12
* Ingestion (drinking) of potable water contaminated by radioactive liquid effluents discharged from the station.ComEd considers the latter two of these pathways as significant For the aquatic food pathway, only fish is considered since It is the only significant locally produced aquatic'food consumed by humans.The stations omit the pathways involving Irrigation and animal consumption of contaminated water because these pathways were determined to be insignificant The stations also omit the pathway of radiation exposure from shoreline sediment because this pathway was also found to be Insignificant (see ODCM Bases and Reference Document, Section 0.3.2).The stations have also verified that the dose contribution to people participating in water recreational activities (swimming and boating) is negligible. (See ODCM Bases and Reference Document, Reference 101, Tables 0-3 and 0-4)' This pathway was not addressed explicitly in Regulatory Guide 1.109. Thus, the stations also omit dose assessments for the water recreational activities pathway.Periodically the Illinois Army Coips of Engineers dredges silt and debris from the river beds near ComEd nuclear stations.
As a part of the land use census, ComEd will determine If the Corps performed dredging within one mile of the discharge point. If so, ComEd will obtain spoils samples, through Its REMP vendor, for analysis.
The impact to the offsite dose will be evaluated on a case by case basis and added to the'station annex of the ODCM when applicable.
In addition, to assure that doses due to radioactivity in liquid effluents will be ALARA, concentrations will be limited to ten times (1 Ox) the values given in I OCFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2. Specific limitations for concentrations of entrained noble gases are contained in the stations' Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS).3.3 RADIATION FROM CONTAINED SOURCES Radioactivity contained within tanks, pipes or other systems and contained radioactive material or waste stored on site can produce radiation at offsite locations.
Annual offsite radiation doses near the stations due to such sources were judged to be negligible in comparison with applicable limits except for doses due to BWR turbine skyshine and potential doses due to radioactive waste storage facilities (excludes radioactive material storage).
See ODCM Bases and Reference Document, Reference 101. Changes or modifications to the power station that may impact the offsite dose through increases to the direct radiation levels need to be evaluated on a case by case basis and added to Chapter 12 of the station*annex to the ODCM when applicable (e.g.; the Old Steam Generator Storage Facilities).

* Ingestion of radioactivity from animal food products (milk or meat) resulting from the animal either drinking water contaminated by radioactive liquid effluents or from the animal eating feed or vegetation contaminated by irrigation with such water.
* Ingestion of aquatic food (e.g., fish) obtained from the body of water to which radioactive station effluents are discharged.
* Ingestion (drinking) of potable water contaminated by radioactive liquid effluents discharged from the station.
ComEd considers the latter two of these pathways as significant For the aquatic food pathway, only fish is considered since It is the only significant locally produced aquatic'food consumed by humans.
The stations omit the pathways involving Irrigation and animal consumption of contaminated water because these pathways were determined to be insignificant The stations also omit the pathway of radiation exposure from shoreline sediment because this pathway was also found to be Insignificant (see ODCM Bases and Reference Document, Section 0.3.2).
The stations have also verified that the dose contribution to people participating in water recreational activities (swimming and boating) is negligible. (See ODCM Bases and Reference Document, Reference 101, Tables 0-3 and 0-4)' This pathway was not addressed explicitly in Regulatory Guide 1.109. Thus, the stations also omit dose assessments for the water recreational activities pathway.

Appendix B describes methods used to determine values of parameters included in the equations.
Revision 2.0 April 1999 CHAPTER 4 METHODOLOGY
4.1 IMPORTANT CONCEPTS AND PARAMETERS 4.1.1 Dose and Dose Commitment The dose calculation equations contained in the ODCM are based on two types of exposure to radiation; external and internal exposure.
 
The first type of exposure is that resulting from radioactive sources external to the body (including radiation emanating from an effluent plume, radiation emanating from radioactivity deposited on the ground and radiation emanating from contained sources (also referred to as direct radiation)).
==4.0      INTRODUCTION==
Exposure to radiation external to the body only occurs while the source of the radioactivity is present. For example, once a plume containing the airborne radioactivity passes by the individual, the external exposure to radiation ends.The second type of exposure occurs when the source of radioactivity Is inside the body, or Intemral.Radiation can enter the body by breathing air containing the radioactivity, or by eating food or drinking water containing radioactivity.
 
These latter processes are also referred to as ingesting radioactivity (ingestion).
This chapter provides an introduction to the methodology used by ComEd to calculate offsite radiation doses resulting from the operation of nuclear power stations. Additional explanation and details of the methodology are provided in Appendices A and B. Appendix A discusses each dose limit Inthe RETS.
Once radioactivity enters the body and becomes internal radiation, a person will continue to receive radiation dose until the radioactivity has decayed or is eliminated by biological processes.
and provides the associated assessment equations. Appendix B describes methods used to determine values of parameters included in the equations.
The dose from this type of exposure is also termed dose commitment, meaning that the person will continue to receive dose even-though the plume containing the radioactivity has passed by the individual, or even-though the individual is no longer drinking water containing radioactivity.

4.1.2 Exposure Pathways All of the exposure pathways are discussed in Chapter 3. This section presents the exposure pathways addressed by CoinEd nuclear stations in the ODCM and associated software.For releases of radioactivity in airborne effluents the primary pathways are the following:
4.1.2     Exposure Pathways All of the exposure pathways are discussed in Chapter 3. This section presents the exposure pathways addressed by CoinEd nuclear stations in the ODCM and associated software.
* Direct radiation from an effluent plume.* Direct radiation from radioactivity deposited on the ground by a plume.* Inhalation of radioactivity in a plume.* Ingestion of radioactivity that entered the food chain from a plume that deposited the radioactivity on vegetation.
For releases of radioactivity in airborne effluents the primary pathways are the following:
For releases of radioactivity in liquid effluents, the exposure pathways considered are human consumption of water and fish.When determining total doses, as required by 10CFR20 and 40CFRI90, the BWR stations also consider direct radiation due to skyshine from nitrogen-16 (N'6) in turbines and associated piping. Ail nuclear glodcm/generic/ev2-01 15 Revision 2.0 April 1999 power stations will consider exposure to radiation emanating from onsite radwaste storage facilities when they are put Into operation.
* Direct radiation from an effluent plume.
4.1.3 Categories of Radioactivity Radionuclide content of effluent releases from nuclear power stations can be categorized according to* the characteristics of the radionuclides.
* Direct radiation from radioactivity deposited on the ground by a plume.
In evaluating doses associated with a particular pathway, only those categories of radionuclides that significantly contribute to the dose need to be included in the dose* calculations (See Section 3.0). The categories of radionuclides considered by the ComEd nuclear power stations for each of the airborne pathways are summarized in Table 4-1. Selection of the significant airborne pathways was based on the following:
* Inhalation of radioactivity in a plume.
* The requirements in the RETS (see discussion In Appendix A)* Applicable regulatory guidance (References 6 and 14), and* A study of the potential radiological implications of nuclear facilities in the upper Mississippi River basin (Reference 20).Calculations were used to determine which radionuclides were significant for a particular pathway. For example, in the case of direct radiation from a plume of airborne radioactivity, it was found that radiation from noble gases is significant and radiation from radioactive iodine was not. The 'dose rate per unit of airborne radioactivity concentration is about the same for noble gases and radioactive iodine since they emit comparable types and energies of radiation.
* Ingestion of radioactivity that entered the food chain from a plume that deposited the radioactivity on vegetation.
However, the quantity of noble gas radioactivity (Ci)released in routine nuclear plant operation typically exceeds the quantity of radioactive iodine by a factor of about 10,000.As another example, consider the inhalation pathway. Here, the calculations showed that the dose commitment due to radioactive iodine was significant but the dose commitment due to radioactive noble gases was not significant and can be excluded from the compliance calculations for the inhalation pathway. This is true despite the fact that a much larger quantity of noble gas radioactivity is released.The reason for this is that the solubility of noble gas in body tissue is very low, where-as the inhaled radioactive iodine does concentrate in specific body organs such as the thyroid (see the discussion on Pages 228 and 231 to 234 of Reference 38).4.1.4 Release Point Classifications In the determination of the dose consequence from an airborne release of radioactivity, it Is required to know the height of the release of the effluent plume relative to the ground and where the dose recipients are located. This correlation is very important because the radiation dose calculated is greatly impacted by the distance separating the dose recipient and the radioactive plume.It has been found that the height an effluent plume maintains as it travels above the ground is related to the elevation of the release point and to the height of structures immediately adjacent as follows:* If the elevation of the release point is sufficiently above the height of any adjacent structures, the plume will remain elevated for considerable distances.
For releases of radioactivity in liquid effluents, the exposure pathways considered are human consumption of water and fish.
* If the elevation of the release point is at or below the heights of adjacent structures, the plume is likely to be caught in the turbulence of the wakes created by wind passing over the buildings.
When determining total doses, as required by 10CFR20 and 40CFRI90, the BWR stations also consider direct radiation due to skyshine from nitrogen-16 (N'6) in turbines and associated piping. Ail nuclear glodcm/generic/ev2-01                               15
The plume elevation would then drop to ground level.* If the elevation of the release point is not significantly above the heights of adjacent structures, then the plume may be elevated or at ground level.For the calculations of this manual, each established release point has been designated as belonging to one of three release point classifications:

Revision 2.0 April 1999 power stations will consider exposure to radiation emanating from onsite radwaste storage facilities when they are put Into operation.
Release Points (denoted by the letter S or subscript s)These are release points approximately twice the height of adjacent solid structures.

* the characteristics of the radionuclides. Inevaluating doses associated with a particular pathway, only those categories of radionuclides that significantly contribute to the dose need to be included in the dose
* calculations (See Section 3.0). The categories of radionuclides considered by the ComEd nuclear power stations for each of the airborne pathways are summarized in Table 4-1. Selection of the significant airborne pathways was based on the following:
* The requirements in the RETS (see discussion In Appendix A)
* Applicable regulatory guidance (References 6 and 14), and
* A study of the potential radiological implications of nuclear facilities in the upper Mississippi River basin (Reference 20).
Calculations were used to determine which radionuclides were significant for a particular pathway. For example, in the case of direct radiation from a plume of airborne radioactivity, it was found that radiation from noble gases is significant and radiation from radioactive iodine was not. The 'dose rate per unit of airborne radioactivity concentration is about the same for noble gases and radioactive iodine since they emit comparable types and energies of radiation. However, the quantity of noble gas radioactivity (Ci) released in routine nuclear plant operation typically exceeds the quantity of radioactive iodine by a factor of about 10,000.
As another example, consider the inhalation pathway. Here, the calculations showed that the dose commitment due to radioactive iodine was significant but the dose commitment due to radioactive noble gases was not significant and can be excluded from the compliance calculations for the inhalation pathway. This is true despite the fact that a much larger quantity of noble gas radioactivity is released.
The reason for this is that the solubility of noble gas in body tissue is very low, where-as the inhaled radioactive iodine does concentrate in specific body organs such as the thyroid (see the discussion on Pages 228 and 231 to 234 of Reference 38).
4.1.4     Release Point Classifications In the determination of the dose consequence from an airborne release of radioactivity, it Is required to know the height of the release of the effluent plume relative to the ground and where the dose recipients are located. This correlation is very important because the radiation dose calculated isgreatly impacted by the distance separating the dose recipient and the radioactive plume.
It has been found that the height an effluent plume maintains as it travels above the ground is related to the elevation of the release point and to the height of structures immediately adjacent as follows:
* If the elevation of the release point is sufficiently above the height of any adjacent structures, the plume will remain elevated for considerable distances.
* If the elevation of the release point is at or below the heights of adjacent structures, the plume is likely to be caught in the turbulence of the wakes created by wind passing over the buildings. The plume elevation would then drop to ground level.
* If the elevation of the release point is not significantly above the heights of adjacent structures, then the plume may be elevated or at ground level.
For the calculations of this manual, each established release point has been designated as belonging to one of three release point classifications:

These are release points approximately twice the height of adjacent solid structures.
Releases are treated as elevated'releases unaffected by thd presence of the adjacent structures.
Releases are treated as elevated'releases unaffected by thd presence of the adjacent structures.
* Ground Level Release Points (denoted by the letter G or subscript g)These are release points at ground level or lower than adjacent solid structures.
* Ground Level Release Points (denoted by the letter G or subscript g)
Releases are considered drawn into the downwind wake of these structures and are treated as ground level releases.-* Vent (or Mixed Mode) Release Points (denoted by the letter V or subscript v)These are release points as high or higher than adjacent solid structures but lower than twice the structure's heights. These releases are treated as a mixture of elevated and ground level releases.
These are release points at ground level or lower than adjacent solid structures.
The proportion of the release attributed to either elevated or ground level in a vent release is determined by the ratio of stack exit velocity to the wind speed (see Section'8.1.2.4 of Appendix B).The definitions of these classifications are based on Regulatory Guide 1.111 (Reference 7). A list of the classifications of specific airborne release points for each of the ComEd nuclear power stations is contained in Table A-2 in Appendix A.4.1.5 Historical Average Atmospheric Conditions The dispersion characteristics of airborne effluents from a nuclear power station are dependent on weather conditions.
Releases are considered drawn into the downwind wake of these structures and are treated as ground level releases.
Meteorological factors that directly affect the concentration of airborne radioactivity in a plume include the following:
          -*     Vent (or Mixed Mode) Release Points (denoted by the letter V or subscript v)
* Wind Direction The concentration of radioactivity is highest in the direction toward which the wind Is blowing.* Wind Speed Greater wind speeds produce more dispersion and consequently lower concentrations of radioactivity:
These are release points as high or higher than adjacent solid structures but lower than twice the structure's heights. These releases are treated as a mixture of elevated and ground level releases. The proportion of the release attributed to either elevated or ground level in a vent release is determined by the ratio of stack exit velocity to the wind speed (see Section'8.1.2.4 of Appendix B).
* Atmospheric Turbulence The greater the atmospheric turbulence, the more a plume spreads both vertically and horizontally.
The definitions of these classifications are based on Regulatory Guide 1.111 (Reference 7). A list of the classifications of specific airborne release points for each of the ComEd nuclear power stations is contained in Table A-2 in Appendix A.
For calculations in.this manual, the degree of turbulence is classified by use of seven atmospheric stability classes, designated A (extremely unstable) through G (extremely stable). The seven classes and some of their characteristics are listed In Table C-4 of Appendix C.Meteorological conditions strongly impact the values of various parameters applied in the dose calculations of this manual. These include:* The Relative Concentration Factor X/Q (Section 4.1.6)* The Relative Deposition Factor DIQ (Section 4.1.7)g:/odcf/generic/mv2/7
4.1.5     Historical Average Atmospheric Conditions The dispersion characteristics of airborne effluents from a nuclear power station are dependent on weather conditions. Meteorological factors that directly affect the concentration of airborne radioactivity in a plume include the following:

* Wind Direction The concentration of radioactivity is highest in the direction toward which the wind Is blowing.
Therefore, this manual provides values for the above parameters that are based on station-specific historical average meteorological conditions.
* Wind Speed Greater wind speeds produce more dispersion and consequently lower concentrations of radioactivity:
These values were obtained by averaging hourly values of the parameters over-a long-term, several-year, period of record. The averaging period was based on calendar years in order to avoid any bias from weather conditions associated with any one season. The period of record Is identified in each of the tables providing the values (see Appendix F).4.1.6 Relative Concentration Factor XIQ A person immersed In a plume of airborne radioactivity Is exposed to radiation from the plume and may also inhale some of the radioactivity from the plume. The concentration of radioactivity In air near the exposed person must be calculated to adequately evaluate doses resulting from any inhalation.
* Atmospheric Turbulence The greater the atmospheric turbulence, the more a plume spreads both vertically and horizontally. For calculations in.this manual, the degree of turbulence is classified by use of seven atmospheric stability classes, designated A (extremely unstable) through G (extremely stable). The seven classes and some of their characteristics are listed In Table C-4 of Appendix C.
The relative concentration factor X/Q (referred to as "chi over Q") is used to simplify these calculations.
Meteorological conditions strongly impact the values of various parameters applied in the dose calculations of this manual. These include:
X/Q is the concentration of radioactivity in air, at a specified location, divided by the radioactivity release rate.X/Q has the following units:.Units of XIQ = (jClUm 3) I (1iCi/sec)  
* The Relative Concentration Factor X/Q (Section 4.1.6)
= seclm Station-specific values of X/Q are provided for each nuclear power station in Table F-5 of Appendix F.These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5).For each of the release point classifications (eg. stack, vent and ground level) and for the 16 compass-direction sectors (N, NNE, etc.), Table F-5 provides the maximum value of XIQ for locations at or beyond the unrestricted area boundary.The value of XIQ for each sector reflects the fraction of time that the wind blew into that sector and the distribution of wind speeds and atmospheric stability classes during that time. Note that the value would be zero if the wind never blew Into the sector.The methodology for determining X/Q is discussed In detail in Section B.3 of Appendix B.4.1.7 Relative Deposition Factor DIQ As a plume travels away from its release point, portions of the plume may touch the ground and deposit radioactivity on the ground and/or on vegetation.
* The Relative Deposition Factor DIQ (Section 4.1.7) g:/odcf/generic/mv2/7                               .17
Occurrences of such deposition are important to model since any radioactivity deposited on the ground or on vegetation may directly expose people and/or may be absorbed into food products which can ultimately be ingested by people. The relative deposition factor is used to simplify the dose calculations for these pathways.The relative deposition factor DIQ is the rate of deposition of radioactivity on the ground divided by the radioactivity release rate. Its value was determined for specific conditions.
 
In this manual it has the following units: Units of DIQ [(pCllsec)/m 2 j I (pClsec) =rn 2 The values of DIQ are affected by the same parameters that affect the values of X/Q: release characteristics; meteorological conditions and location (see Section 4.1.6). Station-specific values of D/Q are provided for each ComEd nuclear power station in Appendix F Tables F-5 and F-6. These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5).gJddcrn/geneddcrev2-0/
Revision 2.0 April 1999~
1 18 Revision 2.0 April 1999 For each release point classification and for each of the.16 compass-direction sectors (N, NNE, etc.), Table F-5 provides the maximum value of D/Q for locations at or beyond the unrestricted area boundary.In Table F-6, values of D/Q are given for the locations of the nearest milk and meat producers within 5 miles of the nuclear power station. The methodology for determining D/Q is discussed in Section B.4 of Appendix B.4.1.8 Dose Factors Various dose factors are used in this manual to simplify the calculation of radiation doses. These factors are listed in Table 4-2. Definitions of these factors are given in the remainder of this chapter. Methods of determining their values are addressed in Appendix B.4.2 AIRBORNE RELEASES 4.2.1 Gamma Air Dose The term 'gamma air dose' refers to the component of dose absorbed by air resulting from the absorption of energy from photons emitted during nuclear and atomic transformations, including gamma rays, x-rays, annihilation radiation, and Bremsstrahlung radiation (see footnote on page 1.109-19 of Regulatory Guide 1.109).The Gamma Air Dose Factor The gamma air dose factor is the gamma air dose rate divided by the radioactivity release rate. The value of the gamma air dose factor is determined by calculating the gamma dose rate to air (at a specific location and corresponding to a given release rate) and dividing that dose rate by the corresponding release rate: Gamma Air Dose Factor = [(mradlyr)I(pCllsec)]
* The Gamma Air Dose Factor (Section 4.2.1)
The methodology for this calculation is discussed In Section B.5 of Appendix B. The calculation is complex because the dose rate at any given point is affected by the radioactivity-concentration and distance.
* The Whole Body Dose Factor (Section 4.2.3)
The value of the gamma air dose factor is also affected by all of the parameters that affect X/Q: release characteristics, meteorological conditions and location (see Section 4.1.6). Additionally, the value is affected by radiological parameters:
Some bases sections of both the Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (guidance document) and the RETS specify that dose calculations be based on "historical average atmospheric conditions".. Therefore, this manual provides values for the above parameters that are based on station-specific historical average meteorological conditions. These values were obtained by averaging hourly values of the parameters over-a long-term, several-year, period of record. The averaging period was based on calendar years in order to avoid any bias from weather conditions associated with any one season. The period of record Is identified in each of the tables providing the values (see Appendix F).
the distribution of energies and intensities for gamma emissions from each specific radionuclide and the photon attenuation characteristics of air.In the ODCM, station-specific values of gamma dose factors are provided for each station in Appendix F, Table F-7. These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5).For the release point classification and for each of the 16 compass-direction sectors, Table F-7 provides the maximum value of the gamma air dose factor for noble gas radionuclides at the unrestricted area boundary.
4.1.6     Relative Concentration Factor XIQ A person immersed Ina plume of airborne radioactivity Is exposed to radiation from the plume and may also inhale some of the radioactivity from the plume. The concentration of radioactivity In air near the exposed person must be calculated to adequately evaluate doses resulting from any inhalation. The relative concentration factor X/Q (referred to as "chi over Q") is used to simplify these calculations. X/Q is the concentration of radioactivity in air, at a specified location, divided by the radioactivity release rate.
The value indludes a correction for radioactive decay during transport of the radionuclide from the release point to the dose calculation location.4.2.2 Beta Air Dose The term 'beta air dose' refers to the component of dose to air dose resulting from the absorption of energy from emissions of beta particles, mono-energetic electrons and positrons during nuclear and atomic transformations (see the footnote on Page 1.109-20 of Regulatory Guide 1.109).g:/odcmlgeneridrev2-01 19:  
X/Q has the following units:.
-Revision 2.0 April 1999 The Beta Air Dose Factor The beta'air dose factor is the beta air dose rate divided by the concentration of radioactivity In air at the dose calculation location.
Units of XIQ = (jClUm3 ) I (1iCi/sec) = seclm Station-specific values of X/Q are provided for each nuclear power station in Table F-5 of Appendix F.
Values of the beta air dose factor are different for each radionuclide because of the differences in electron-emission spectra. Values for the beta air dose factors of.15 noble gas radionuclides are provided in Appendix C Table C-9.The values of beta air dose factors are independent of nuclear power station because the size'of a plume, at or beyond the restricted area boundary, Is large compared to the range of the beta particle radiation.
These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5).
Therefore, the radioactivity concentration can be assumed to be constant over .the entire'volume surrounding a given beta dose calculation point One can then define the beta air dose factor as* the beta dose rate per unit of air radioactivity concentration.
For each of the release point classifications (eg. stack, vent and ground level) and for the 16 compass-direction sectors (N, NNE, etc.), Table F-5 provides the maximum value of XIQ for locations at or beyond the unrestricted area boundary.
This relationship is independent of.station-specific parameters.
The value of XIQ for each sector reflects the fraction of time that the wind blew into that sector and the distribution of wind speeds and atmospheric stability classes during that time. Note that the value would be zero ifthe wind never blew Into the sector.
In contrast to this, the gamma air dose may depend on radioactivity concentration hundreds of feet away from the dose calculation point (see Section 4.2.1). Therefore, when determining the value of the gamma air dose factor, the shape of the plume over a large region.must be considered.
The methodology for determining X/Q is discussed In detail in Section B.3 of Appendix B.
Plume shape does depend on station-specific parameters such as'meteorology and release point classification and therefore values of the gamma air dose factor are station-specific.
4.1.7     Relative Deposition Factor DIQ As a plume travels away from its release point, portions of the plume may touch the ground and deposit radioactivity on the ground and/or on vegetation. Occurrences of such deposition are important to model since any radioactivity deposited on the ground or on vegetation may directly expose people and/or may be absorbed into food products which can ultimately be ingested by people. The relative deposition factor is used to simplify the dose calculations for these pathways.
4.2.3 Whole Body Dose and Dose Rate Whole Body Dose Equation A-6 of Appendix A is used to calculate dose to the whole body from noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents.
The relative deposition factor DIQ is the rate of deposition of radioactivity on the ground divided by the radioactivity release rate. Its value was determined for specific conditions. Inthis manual it has the following units:
The deep dose equivalent (DDE) (or whole body dose) equation is similar to that used to calculate gamma air dose (Equation A-1 of Appendix A).Whole Body Dose Rate Equation A-8 of Appendix A is used to calculate dose rate to the whole body. The assumptions used for this equation are the same as those used in the calculation of whole body dose (Equation A-6 of Appendix A) except that any shielding benefit (dose attenuation) provided by residential structures is not applied. Since the calculation is for the maximum Instantaneous dose rate, the dose recipient may be out of doors when exposed and would not be shielded from the exposure by any structural material.The Whole Body Dose Factor The whole body dose factor Is the whole body dose rate divided by the radioactive release rate. Values for the whole body dose factor depend on the same parameters as those that affect the gamma air dose factor (see Section 4.2.1). The whole body dose factor is a 1 OCFR50 term that yields a Deep Dose Equivalent when applied to the radioactive release rate.Station-specific values for the whole body dose factor are provided for each ComEd nuclear power station in Appendix F, Table F-7. These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5). For each of 15 noble gas radionuclides, for the release point classifications, and for each of the 16 compass-direction sectors, Table F-7 provides the maximum value of the whole body dose factor at the unrestricted area boundary.
Units of DIQ     [(pCllsec)/m 2j I (pClsec) =rn2 The values of DIQ are affected by the same parameters that affect the values of X/Q: release characteristics; meteorological conditions and location (see Section 4.1.6). Station-specific values of D/Q are provided for each ComEd nuclear power station in Appendix F Tables F-5 and F-6. These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5).
These values include a correction for radioactive decay during transport of the radionuclide from the release point to the dose calculation location.The methodology for determining whole body dose factors is addressed in Section B.6 of Appendix B.glodcm/generictrev2-0l 2 20 Revision 2.0 April 1999 4.2.4 Skin Dose and Dose Rate Skin Dose Equation A-7 of Appendix A Is used to calculate dose to skin from noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents.

The skin dose is also referred to as the 'shallow dose equivalent' (SDE). The SDE is the summation of dose to the skin from beta and gamma radiation.
 
The equation for beta dose to skin is similar to that used to calculate beta dose to air (Equation A-2 of Appendix A) except that beta skin dose factors are used Instead of beta air dose factors. The beta skin dose factor differs from the beta air dose factor by accounting for the attenuation of beta radiation by the*dead layer of skin. The dead layer of skin is not susceptible to radiation damage and therefore is not of concern. The beta dose to the skin from non-noble gases is insignificant and is not calculated for the reason described in Section 4.1.3. When calculating the beta contribution to skin dose, no reduction is included in the calculations due to shielding provided by occupancy of residential structures.

The Gamma Air Dose Factor The gamma air dose factor is the gamma air dose rate divided by the radioactivity release rate. The value of the gamma air dose factor is determined by calculating the gamma dose rate to air (at a specific location and corresponding to a given release rate) and dividing that dose rate by the corresponding release rate:
Gamma Air Dose Factor = [(mradlyr)I(pCllsec)]
The methodology for this calculation is discussed In Section B.5 of Appendix B. The calculation is complex because the dose rate at any given point is affected by the radioactivity-concentration and distance. The value of the gamma air dose factor is also affected by all of the parameters that affect X/Q: release characteristics, meteorological conditions and location (see Section 4.1.6). Additionally, the value is affected by radiological parameters: the distribution of energies and intensities for gamma emissions from each specific radionuclide and the photon attenuation characteristics of air.
Inthe ODCM, station-specific values of gamma dose factors are provided for each station in Appendix F, Table F-7. These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5).
For the release point classification and for each of the 16 compass-direction sectors, Table F-7 provides the maximum value of the gamma air dose factor for noble gas radionuclides at the unrestricted area boundary. The value indludes a correction for radioactive decay during transport of the radionuclide from the release point to the dose calculation location.
4.2.2     Beta Air Dose The term 'beta air dose' refers to the component of dose to air dose resulting from the absorption of energy from emissions of beta particles, mono-energetic electrons and positrons during nuclear and atomic transformations (see the footnote on Page 1.109-20 of Regulatory Guide 1.109).

Values of the ground plane dose conversion factor that are calculated by assuming constant concentration over an infinite plane are provided for various radionuclides in Table C-10 of Appendix C. The values are the same for all stations. The station-specific aspects of the calculation of ground dose concern the determination of the radioactivity concentration on the ground.
The assumptions are the same as used in the calculation of inhalation dose commitment (Equation A-17 of Appendix A).4.2.7 Ingestion Airborne releases of radioactive Iodine, particulate, tritium, and carbon-14 can enter the food chain, through deposition on, or absorption by, vegetation..
4.2.6     Inhalation Dose Commitment Radioactivity from airborne releases of radioactive iodine, particulate, tritium, and carbon-14 can enter the body through inhalation. Equation A-17 of Appendix A is used to calculate dose commitment to the whole body or its organs due to inhalation of non-noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents.
The radioactivity can be ingested by humans who consume the vegetation or who consume products (e.g., milk or meat) of animals who have fed on the contaminated vegetation.
This dose component is also referred to as the 'committed dose equivalent' (CDE).
Each ComEd nuclear power station considers the following four ingestion pathways:* Leafy vegetables,* Produce (e.g. non-leafy vegetables, fruit, and grain),* Milk, and* Meat.Equation A-18 of Appenadix A is used to calculate the dose commitment due to ingestion of food containing non-noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents.
The Inhalation Dose Commitment Factor Values for the inhalation dose commitment factor are the same for all ComEd stations. The components of this factor are not impacted by station specific parameters. However, the dose commitment factors used for compliance with I OCFR20 and IOCFR50 Appendix I are different as noted below:

Revision 2.0 April 1999 Values of the ingestion dose commitment factor are the same for each ComEd nuclear power station.
The components of this factor are not impacted by station specific parameters. The station-specific aspects of the calculation of ingestion dose only concern the quantity of radioactivity ingested. However, the ingestion dose commitment factors used for IOCFR20 and for IOCFR50 compliance are different as was.noted previously in section 4.2.6. These differences are noted below:
* Values of the ingestion dose commitment factor used in the I OCFR50 Appendix I assessment are exactly those listed In Reg. Guide 1.109 Tables E-11, 12, 13 and 14.

The Ingested activity Is calculated by use of equations A-19 through A-22 of Appendix A.The food product radioactivity concentration is calculated from measurements of radioactivity Instation releases.
The different equations used for radioactivity concentration in vegetation, milk, and meat are also discussed in Appendix A 4.3     LIQUID RELEASES The evaluation of dose and dose rate due to releases of radioactivity in liquid effluents is required to confirm compliance with the provisions of RETS related to IOCFR50 Appendix I.: ODCM Section 3.2 and Figure 3-1 list some of the pathways by which radioactivity in liquid effluents can impact man.

The nuclear power stations obtain the dose commitment due to radioactivity In liquid effluent releases by summing the dose commitments from both the drinking water and fish pathways.
Equations A-29, A-30 and A-31 of Appendix A are used to calculate committed dose equivalent (CDE) for the member of the public due to consumption of drinking water and fish.
The radioactivity concentration in water is obtained by dividing the quantity of radioactivity released by the volume of water in which the release is diluted (e.g., the flow is multiplied by the total time of the release in hours). The result is multiplied by the following:
* A factor to represent any additional dilution that might occur.
* Afactor to account for radioactive decay from the time of release to the time of consumption.
The radioactivity concentration in fish is the product of the radioactivity concentration in water and a bio-accumulation factor. The dilution and radioactive decay factors for fish may be different from those for water. (The fish may be caught at a location different from where drinking water is drawn and the time period from the release of radioactivity to consumption may be different.)

The second is that due to gamma rays associated with radioactive material contained in onsite radwaste and rad material storage facilities.
4.4.1       BWR Skyshine The most significant dose component to members of the public produced by "contained sources" is nitrogen-16 (N-16) within the turbine building of BWRs. Although primary side shielding is around the turbine and its piping, N-16 gamma rays scattered by air molecules in the overhead air space above the turbine and piping cause a measurable "skyshine" radiation dose in the local power plant environs.

Equation A-34 of Appendix A is used to evaluate skyshine dose. A complicating factor in the calculation is the practice at some stations of adding hydrogen to reactor coolant to improve coolant chemistry. The addition of hydrogen can increase the dose rate due to skyshine up to a factor of 10 times expected levels depending on injection rates and power levels (Reference 39). Increasing the hydrogen injection rate will increase the dose rates even further. (See Reference 102) The skyshine dose determined by Equation A-34 of Appendix A depends on the following factors:

Some nuclear power station's Technical Specifications state applicable requirements (typically under the subheading, Meteorological Instrumentation," in the instrumentation section). Regulatory guidance is given in Regulatory Guide 1.23 (Reference 5). Wind speed, wind direction and the temperature gradient are measured using instruments at two or more elevations on a meteorological tower at each ComEd station. The elevations are chosen to provide meteorological data representative of the elevations of the airborne releases from the station. The Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report includes a summary of meteorological data collected over the reporting year. These data are used to calculate optional isopleths of radiation dose and radioactivity concentration.

* Use of pre-calculated atmospheric transport parameters based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5). These factors, X/Q and D/Q, are defined in Chapter 4.* Use of pre-calculated dose factors based on historical average atmospheric conditions.
Meyer, NUREG/CR-3332, ORNL-5968, September 1983.
For example, a dose factor with units (mradlyr) per (iCi/sec) is used to obtain gamma dose rate in* mrad/yr from noble gas release rate in pCi/sec.Values of these parameters are obtained as described in Appendix B.The equations and parameters of this appendix are for use in calculating offsite radiation doses during routine operating conditions.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 APPENDIX A COMPLIANCE METHODOLOGY A.0       INTRODUCTION This appendix reviews the offsite radiological limits applicable to the nuclear power stations and presents in detail the equations and procedures used to assess compliance with these limits. An introduction to the calculational approach used here is given in Chapter 4. The approach incorporates simplifications such as the following:
* Use of pre-calculated atmospheric transport parameters based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5). These factors, X/Q and D/Q, are defined in Chapter 4.
* Use of pre-calculated dose factors based on historical average atmospheric conditions. For example, a dose factor with units (mradlyr) per (iCi/sec) is used to obtain gamma dose rate in
* mrad/yr from noble gas release rate in pCi/sec.
Values of these parameters are obtained as described in Appendix B.
The equations and parameters of this appendix are for use in calculating offsite radiation doses during routine operating conditions. They are not for use in calculating doses due to non-routine releases (e.g., accident releases).
The applicable radiation protection regulations Included in IOCFR20, 10CFR50 Appendix 1,and 40CFR190 each require a different type of radiological dose assessment. In some cases, e.g. ingestion and inhalation pathways, the calculations used to demonstrate compliance may be similar, but the reference dose conversion factors differ because of historical regulatory evolution. This section of the ODCM develops, in detail, the evaluation used to determine the individual components of the total dose, and then indicates which are reportable and in some cases combined to demonstrate regulatory compliance.
An overview of the required compliance is given in Tables 2-1, 2-2, and 2-3. In Table 2-1, the dose components are itemized and referenced, and an indication of their regulatory application is noted. A more detailed compliance matrix is given in Table 2-3. Additionally, the locations of dose receivers for each dose component are given in Table 2-2.
The following sections detail the required radiological dose calculations.
A.1     AIRBORNE RELEASES A.1.1 Release Point Classifications The pattern of dispersion of airborne releases is dependent on the height of the release point relative to adjacent structures. For the equations of this appendix, each release point is classified as one of the following three height-dependent types, which are defined InSection 4.1.4:
* Stack (or Elevated) Release Point (denoted by the letter S or subscript s)
* Ground Level Release Point (denoted by the letter G or subscript g)
* Vent (or Mixed Mode) Release Point (denoted by the letter V or subscript v)
The release point classifications of routine release points at the nuclear power stations are stated in Table A-2.

"The concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to unrestricted areas shall be limited to ten times the concentration values in Appendix B1-Table 2, Column 2 to 10CFR20.1001-20.2402."
If either the identity or concentration of any radionuclide in the mixture is not known, special rules apply. These are given in the footnotes in 10CFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2.Application The RETS and Technical Specifications require a specified sampling and analysis program to assure that liquid radioactivity concentrations at the point of release are maintained within the required limits.To comply with this provision, each nuclear power station obtains and analyzes samples In accordance with the radioactive liquid waste (or effluent) sampling and analysis program in its RETS. Radioactivity concentrations in tank effluents are determined in accordance with Equation A-33 in the next section. Comparison with the Effluent Concentration Limit is made using Equation A-32.A.2.3 Tank Discharges When radioactivity is released to the unrestricted area with liquid discharge from a tank (e.g., a radwaste discharge tank), the concentration of a radionuclide in the effluent is calculated as follows: C, (C.= )(F')(Fd + Fr (A-33)C, Concentration in Liquid effluent to the unrestricted area.

For most nuclear power stations, specific numerical limits are specified on the number of curies allowed in affected tanks.Application Table F-1 of Appendix F provides information on the limits applicable to affected stations.
 
The limits are as stated for some stations in the station Technical Specifications.
Revision 2.0 April 1999 Effluents Released to the Unrestricted Area The allowable annual average concentration of radionuclide 'I' in liquid effluents released to the unrestricted area. This concentration is specified in 10CFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2. Concentrations for noble gases are different and are specified in the stations' Technical SpecificationsIRETS.
A.2.5 Operability and Use of the Liquid Radwaste Treatment System Requirement The design objectives of IOCFR50, Appendix I and RETSITechnical Specifications require that the liquid radwaste treatment system be operable and that appropriate portions be used to reduce releases of radioactivity when projected doses due to the liquid effluent from each reactor unit to restricted area boundaries exceed either of the following (see Section 12.3 of each station's RETS or Technical Specifications);

* 0.06 mrem to the whole body in a 31 day period.* 0.2 mrem to any organ in a 31 day period.Equation Offsite doses due to projected releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents are calculated using Equation A-29. Projected radionuclide releases are used in place of measured releases A.A.2.6 Drinking Water Five nuclear power stations (Braidwood, Dresden, LaSalle, Quad Cities, and Zion) have requirements for calculation of drinking water dose that are related to 40CFRI41, the Environmental Protection Agency National Primary Drinking Water Regulations.
If either the identity or concentration of any radionuclide in the mixture is not known, special rules apply. These are given in the footnotes in 10CFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2.
These are discussed in Section A.6.A.2.7 Non-routine Liquid Release Pathways Cases in which normally non-radioactive liquid streams (such as the Service Water) are found to contain radioactive material are non-routine will be treated on a case specific basis if and when this occurs. Since each station has sufficient capacity to delay a liquid release for reasonable periods of time, It is expected that planned releases will not take place under these circumstances.
Application The RETS and Technical Specifications require a specified sampling and analysis program to assure that liquid radioactivity concentrations at the point of release are maintained within the required limits.
Therefore, the liquid release setpoint calculations need not and do not contain provisions for treating multiple simultaneous release pathways.A.3 DOSE DUE TO CONTAINED SOURCES There are presently two types of contained sources of radioactivity which are of concern in ComEd offsite radiological dose assessments.'
To comply with this provision, each nuclear power station obtains and analyzes samples In accordance with the radioactive liquid waste (or effluent) sampling and analysis program in its RETS. Radioactivity concentrations in tank effluents are determined in accordance with Equation A-33 in the next section. Comparison with the Effluent Concentration Limit is made using Equation A-32.
The first source is that due to gamma rays from nitrogen-16 (N 1') carried over to the turbine in BWR steam. The second source is that due to gamma rays associated with radioactive material resident in onsite radwatte storage facilities.
A.2.3 Tank Discharges When radioactivity is released to the unrestricted area with liquid discharge from a tank (e.g., a radwaste discharge tank), the concentration of a radionuclide in the effluent is calculated as follows:

A.3.1 BWR Skyshine The contained onsite radioactivity source which results in the most significant offsite radiation levels at ComEd nuclear power stations is skyshine resulting from N 1 6 decay inside turbines and steam piping at boiling water reactor (BWRs), The N 1 6 that produces the skyshine effect is formulated through neutron activation of the oxygen atoms (oxygen-16, or 016) in reactor coolant as the coolant passes through the operating reactor core. The N 1 6 travels with the steam produced in the reactor to the steam driven turbine. While the N" 6 is in transport, it radioactively decays with a half-life of about 7 seconds and produces 6 to 7 MeV gamma rays. Typically, offsite dose points are shielded from a direct view of components containing N 1 6 , but there can be skyshine radiation at offsite locations due to scattering of gamma rays off the mass of air above the steamlines and turbine.The offsite dose rate due to skyshine has been found to have the following dependencies:

Revision 2.0 April 1999 Gamma radiation from these sources contributes to the whole body dose (deep dose equivalent).
A.3.1     BWR Skyshine The contained onsite radioactivity source which results in the most significant offsite radiation levels at ComEd nuclear power stations is skyshine resulting from N16 decay inside turbines and steam piping at boiling water reactor (BWRs),
The N16 that produces the skyshine effect is formulated through neutron activation of the oxygen atoms (oxygen-16, or 016) in reactor coolant as the coolant passes through the operating reactor core. The N16 travels with the steam produced in the reactor to the steam driven turbine. While the N"6 is in transport, it radioactively decays with a half-life of about 7 seconds and produces 6 to 7 MeV gamma rays. Typically, offsite dose points are shielded from a direct view of components containing N16, but there can be skyshine radiation at offsite locations due to scattering of gamma rays off the mass of air above the steamlines and turbine.
The offsite dose rate due to skyshine has been found to have the following dependencies:
* The dose rate decreases as distance from the station increases.
* The dose rate decreases as distance from the station increases.
* The dose rate increases non-linearly as the power production level increases.
* The dose rate increases non-linearly as the power production level increases.
* The dose rate increases when hydrogen is added to the reactor coolant, an action taken to improve reactor coolant chemistry characteristics (see Reference 39).To calculate offsite dose in a given time period due to skyshine, a boiling water nuclear power station must track the following parameters:
* The dose rate increases when hydrogen is added to the reactor coolant, an action taken to improve reactor coolant chemistry characteristics (see Reference 39).
* The total gross energy Eh produced with hydrogen being added.* The total gross energy E, produced without hydrogen being added.The turbines at BWR sites are sufficiently close to each other that energy generated by the two units at each site may be summed.An initial estimate of BWR skyshine dose is calculated per the following equation: DY =(K) (E, + MhEh) x E(OFkSFkexp(-0.007Rk)) (A-34)The summation is over all locations k occupied by a hypothetical maximally exposed member of the public characterized by the parameters specified In Table F-8.

In August of 1995, a revision to IOCFR20 was implemented that changed the definition of a member of the public.As a result, for each nuclear station, estimated doses were calculated for a member of the public who enters the site boundary, but is not authorized for unescorted access to the protected area of the site and does'not enter any radiologically posted areas on the site. Realistic assumptions were made for occupancy times and locations visited while within the site boundary.These evaluations indicate that the doses estimated for these members of the public are well within the 10CFR20 limits. These dose evaluations will be performed annually and if necessary, a model will be developed and included in the ODCM.Equation The TEDE is evaluated using Equation A-38.Application This evaluation is used to demonstrate compliance to 1 OCFR20 and satisfy station RETS and Technical Specifications (see Chapter 12).A.5.2 Total Dose due to the Uranium Fuel Cycle (40CFR190)

The Regulatory Guide 1.109 dose factors (Reference 6 and ODCM, Appendix C) are still used for 10CFR50 Appendix I compliance.
A.4.3   Total Effective Dose Equivalent The above relationships may then be combined Into a single equation for the total effective dose equivalent, TEDE, as follows:

Revision 2.0 April 1999 A.5     COMPLIANCE TO TOTAL DOSE LIMITS A.5.1   Total Effective Dose Equivalent Limit - IOCFR20 Compliance Requirement Each station's RETS limits the Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) to an annual limit of 100 mrem, as required by 10CFR20.1301 (a)(1). The regulations offer licensees the option of demonstrating compliance by one of two methods 10CFR20.1302 (b)(1) or IOCFR20.1302 (b)(2). The RETS state that the IOCFR20.1302 (b)(1) methodology has been selected to demonstrate compliance to 10CFR20.1301 (a)(1).
The general methodology for calculating the TEDE Is given in Section A.4.3. In lieu of specific regulatory guidance, this evaluation is conservatively made for an adult living at the nearest residence.
InAugust of 1995, a revision to IOCFR20 was implemented that changed the definition of a member of the public.
As a result, for each nuclear station, estimated doses were calculated for a member of the public who enters the site boundary, but is not authorized for unescorted access to the protected area of the site and does'not enter any radiologically posted areas on the site. Realistic assumptions were made for occupancy times and locations visited while within the site boundary.
These evaluations indicate that the doses estimated for these members of the public are well within the 10CFR20 limits. These dose evaluations will be performed annually and if necessary, a model will be developed and included in the ODCM.
Equation The TEDE is evaluated using Equation A-38.
Application This evaluation is used to demonstrate compliance to 10CFR20 and satisfy station RETS and Technical Specifications (see Chapter 12).

The equations involve the following types of parameters:
 
* Meteorological Parameters These include XIQ, DlQ, and wind speed. Their values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions at a site for a selected multi-year historical period (see Section 4.1.5).* Dose Factors These parameters are used to provide a simple way to calculate doses and dose rates due to gamma and beta radiation.
Revision 2.0 April 1999 Table A-4 40CFRI90 Compliance           -
Some of these parameters are independent of meteorological conditions and therefore generic (i.e., not station-specific).

Others have values based on historical average atmospheric conditions for a selected multi-year historical period and are therefore station-specific.
: 1.       The evaluation is made considering the following sources:
* Measured Release Parameters These are measured values of radioactivity releases and release rates.* Radiological Decay Constants These are used to account for the radioactive decay between the release of radioactivity to the environment and the exposure of persons to It.Production/Exposure Parameters These are parameters characterizing agricultural production (e.g., length of growing season, transport times) and human exposure patterns (e.g., exposure period, breathing rate, food consumption rates). These parameters affect the quantities of radioactivity to which persons may be exposed.This appendix discusses the methodology used to determine values of these parameters.
: a. Radioactivity in contained sources within the station;
Section 8.1 addresses how the historical meteorology of a site is characterized by use of a function called the joint frequency distribution.
: b. Radioactivity in station gaseous and liquid effluents.
Section B.1 and Sections B.3 through B.6 present equations that use the joint frequency distribution to obtain values for site-specific meteorological and dose parameters.
: 2.       Dose contributions from neighboring stations and other facilities in the nuclear fuel cycle.
Most of these equations involve a mathematical model of a plume known as the Gaussian plume model. This model is developed in Section B.2. Various generic dose factors are discussed in Sections B.7 through B.10. The other parameters are discussed in the remaining sections.B.1 METEOROLOGICAL DATA AND PARAMETERS Predicting where airborne effluent will travel requires information on the following:
g:/odcmlgeneric1AttAr2-0/                         A-32
* Wind speed* Wind direction* Atmospheric turbulence The greater the atmospheric turbulence, the more an effluent plume will tend to broaden and the more dilute the concentration will be. Atmospheric turbulence is affected by the general condition of the atmosphere (e.g., the vertical temperature distribution) and by local features (e.g., objects that protrude into the wind stream). A commonly used classification scheme for the degree, of atmospheric turbulence associated with the general condition of the atmosphere involves seven stability classes: G:/odcm/generic/AttBr2-0/
 
B-1 Revision 2.0 April 1999 A Extremely Unstable B Moderately Unstable i C Slightly Unstable D Neutral *E Slightly Stable F Moderately Stable G Extremely Stable This classification scheme is based on -Reference 5, Table 1. Each class is associated with a particular range of wind direction fluctuations and of vertical temperature gradients in the atmosphere.

These are -specified In Table C-4 of Appendix C.B.1.1 Data Historical atmospheric conditions at each nuclear power station were recorded by an instrumented meteorological tower that measured wind speed, wind direction, and temperature at various heights.Hourly average values of wind speed, wind direction, and stability class were determined.
: 1.       Data
The difference in temperature between two heights was used to assign an atmospheric stability class based on the correlation between temperature gradient and stability class in Table C-4 of Appendix C.* In obtaining the data, quality assurance checks and corrections were made. Also, corrections were applied to compensate for the limitations of wind sensors at low speeds. A calm was said to exist If the wind speed was less than that of the threshold of either the anemometer (wind speed meter) or the wind direction vane. For calm conditions, a wind speed equal to one-half of the higher threshold was assigned.For each stability class, the wind directions during calm conditions were assumed to be distributed in proportion to the observed wind direction distribution of the lowest non-calm wind speed class.;B.1.2 Joint Frequency Distribution The data for a particular historical period are summarized by developing a joint frequency distribution (JFD). Each such distribution specifies the fraction of time during the historical period that the following-jointly Qccur.* Wind speed within a particular range (wind speed class).* Downwind direction in one of the 16 sectors corresponding to the 16 principal compass directions (N, NNE, etc.).* Atmospheric conditions corresponding to one of the seven atmospheric stability classes discussed in Section B.1.

Two JFDs are associated with vent (mixed mode) releases, one for the portion of the time the release is treated as elevated and the other for the portion of the time the release is treated as ground level.B.1.2.1 Downwind Direction Versus Upwind Direction Unless otherwise noted, any reference to wind direction in this document represents downwind direction, i.e., the direction in which the wind is blowing toward. This is because the parameters developed in this document are used to calculate radioactivity concentration and radiation dose downwind of a release point. In contrast, it is conventional for meteorologists to provide JFDs based on upwind direction, the direction from which the wind is blowing. For example, the JFDs presented in the annual operating reports of the nuclear power stations are obtained from a meteorological contractor and the directions specified in the reports are upwind directions.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 SECTION 1:
MODELS AND PARAMETERS FOR AIRBORNE EFFLUENT CALCULATIONS B.C     INTRODUCTION The equations used for calculation of doses due to radioactive airborne effluents are given in Section A.1 of Appendix A. The equations involve the following types of parameters:
* Meteorological Parameters These include XIQ, DlQ, and wind speed. Their values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions at a site for a selected multi-year historical period (see Section 4.1.5).
* Dose Factors These parameters are used to provide a simple way to calculate doses and dose rates due to gamma and beta radiation. Some of these parameters are independent of meteorological conditions and therefore generic (i.e., not station-specific). Others have values based on historical average atmospheric conditions for a selected multi-year historical period and are therefore station-specific.
* Measured Release Parameters These are measured values of radioactivity releases and release rates.
* Radiological Decay Constants These are used to account for the radioactive decay between the release of radioactivity to the environment and the exposure of persons to It.
Production/Exposure Parameters These are parameters characterizing agricultural production (e.g., length of growing season, transport times) and human exposure patterns (e.g., exposure period, breathing rate, food consumption rates). These parameters affect the quantities of radioactivity to which persons may be exposed.
This appendix discusses the methodology used to determine values of these parameters. Section 8.1 addresses how the historical meteorology of a site is characterized by use of a function called the joint frequency distribution. Section B.1 and Sections B.3 through B.6 present equations that use the joint frequency distribution to obtain values for site-specific meteorological and dose parameters. Most of these equations involve a mathematical model of a plume known as the Gaussian plume model. This model is developed in Section B.2. Various generic dose factors are discussed in Sections B.7 through B.10. The other parameters are discussed in the remaining sections.
B.1         METEOROLOGICAL DATA AND PARAMETERS Predicting where airborne effluent will travel requires information on the following:
* Wind speed
* Wind direction
* Atmospheric turbulence The greater the atmospheric turbulence, the more an effluent plume will tend to broaden and the more dilute the concentration will be. Atmospheric turbulence is affected by the general condition of the atmosphere (e.g., the vertical temperature distribution) and by local features (e.g., objects that protrude into the wind stream). A commonly used classification scheme for the degree, of atmospheric turbulence associated with the general condition of the atmosphere involves seven stability classes:
G:/odcm/generic/AttBr2-0/                           B-1
 
Revision 2.0 April 1999 A   Extremely Unstable B   Moderately Unstable i             C   Slightly Unstable D     Neutral
* E   Slightly Stable F     Moderately Stable G     Extremely Stable This classification scheme is based on -Reference 5,Table 1. Each class is associated with a particular range of wind direction fluctuations and of vertical temperature gradients in the atmosphere. These are       -
specified In Table C-4 of Appendix C.
B.1.1       Data Historical atmospheric conditions at each nuclear power station were recorded by an instrumented meteorological tower that measured wind speed, wind direction, and temperature at various heights.
Hourly average values of wind speed, wind direction, and stability class were determined. The difference in temperature between two heights was used to assign an atmospheric stability class based on the correlation between temperature gradient and stability class in Table C-4 of Appendix C.
* In obtaining the data, quality assurance checks and corrections were made. Also, corrections were applied to compensate for the limitations of wind sensors at low speeds. A calm was said to exist If the wind speed was less than that of the threshold of either the anemometer (wind speed meter) or the wind direction vane. For calm conditions, a wind speed equal to one-half of the higher threshold was assigned.
For each stability class, the wind directions during calm conditions were assumed to be distributed in proportion to the observed wind direction distribution of the lowest non-calm wind speed class.;
B.1.2       Joint Frequency Distribution The data for a particular historical period are summarized by developing ajoint frequency distribution (JFD). Each such distribution specifies the fraction of time during the historical period that the following-jointly Qccur.
* Wind speed within a particular range (wind speed class).
* Downwind direction in one of the 16 sectors corresponding to the 16 principal compass directions (N,NNE, etc.).
* Atmospheric conditions corresponding to one of the seven atmospheric stability classes discussed in Section B.1. Table B-1 of this appendix displays a portion of an example JFD.
Different JFDs are associated with the different release classifications defined in Section 4.1.4. One JFD is defined for stack releases, and another JFD is defined for ground level releases. Two JFDs are associated with vent (mixed mode) releases, one for the portion of the time the release is treated as elevated and the other for the portion of the time the release is treated as ground level.
B.1.2.1       Downwind Direction Versus Upwind Direction Unless otherwise noted, any reference to wind direction in this document represents downwind direction, i.e., the direction in which the wind is blowing toward. This is because the parameters developed in this document are used to calculate radioactivity concentration and radiation dose downwind of a release point. In contrast, it is conventional for meteorologists to provide JFDs based on upwind direction, the direction from which the wind is blowing. For example, the JFDs presented in the annual operating reports of the nuclear power stations are obtained from a meteorological contractor and the directions specified in the reports are upwind directions. Users of JFDs should always be careful to ascertain whether the directions specified are upwind or downwind.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 B.1.2.2       Stack JFD For a stack release, the JFD is defined as follows:
Ef,(n,Oc)     Joint Frequency Distribution, Stack Release The fraction of hours during a period of observation that all of the following hold:
* The average wind speed is within wind speed class n.
* The downwind direction is within the sector denoted by 0.
* The atmospheric stability class is c.
This function is defined for application to a stack release point (see Section 4.1.4). Its value is based on hourly average wind data obtained at a height representative of the release point height The stack JFD is normalized to 1:
                  &#xa3; f,(nOc) = I                                                                         (B-I)
The summation is over all wind speed classes n, all compass direction sectors 0, and all stability classes C.
B.1.2.3   Ground Level JFD For a ground level release, the JFD f 9(n, G,c) is defined in the same way as for a stack release except that the wind data are obtained at a height representative of a ground level release point. This height is taken as about 10meters.
The ground level JFD is normalized to 1:
f(n,O,c) I                                                                         (B-2)
The summation is over all wind speed classes n, all compass direction sectors, and all stability classes c.
B.1.2.4   Vent JFDs In accordance with the approach. recommended In Regulatory Guide 1.111 (Reference 7), the plume from a vent release is treated as elevated part of the time and as ground level the rest of the time. Two JFDs are determined:
* fvelev(n,O,c) characterizes the plume during the part of the time that it is considered elevated;
* fvgnd(n,0,c) characterizes the plume during the part of the time that it is considered ground level.
Their definitions are as follows:
fvelev(n,O,c) Joint Frequency Distribution, Elevated Portion of a Vent Release G:/odcm/generic/AttBr2-01                             B-3
 
Revision 2.0 April 1999 The fraction of hours during a period of observation that the plume is considered elevated and that all of the following hold:
* The average wind speed is within wind speed class n.
* The downwind direction Is within the secftr denoted by 0.
* The atmospheric stability class is c.
fv,9 nd(nOc) Joint Frequency Distribution, Ground Level Portion of a Vent Release The fraction of hours during a period of observation that the plume is considered ground level and that all of the following hold:
* The average wind speed is within wind speed class n.
* The downwind direction is within the sector denoted by.0.
* The atmospheric stability class is c.
The value of fvelev(n, 0,c) is based on hourly average wind data at a height representative of the vent release point. Where the measurement height differed considerably from the release height, wind speed data for the release height was obtained by extrapolation. The value Of fv gnd(n, 0,c) is based on hourly average wind data obtained at a height representative of a ground level release point. This is taken as about 10 meters.
The sum of these two JFDs is normalized to 1:
A{ fv,elev(n, 0,c) + Fvgnd(n, 0,c)                               =                           (B-3)
The summation is over all wind speed classes n, all compass direction sectors 0, and all stability classes c.
The prescription of Regulatory Guide 1.111 is used in determining the fraction of time that the plume is considered elevated and the fraction of time that it is considered ground level. The fractions are obtained from the ratio of stack exit velocity WO to hourly-average wind speed u at the height of the vent release point as follows:
            *if WoIu > 5. then the plume is considered elevated for the hour.
            *If WoIu < 1, then the plume is considered ground level for the hour.
            *if 1 < Wolu < 5, the plume is considered to be a ground level release for a fraction Gt of the hour and an elevated release for a fraction (1 - Gt) of the hour where Gt is defined as follows:
Gt = 2.58 - 1.58(Wolu)     for 1.0 < WIu c 1.5                                             (B-4)
Gt = 0.30 - 0.06(Wolu)     for 1.5 < WoJu < 5.0                                           (B-5)
B.1.3     Average Wind Speed Using the joint frequency distribution, average wind speeds are obtained for each station. Values are obtained for each downwind-direction (N, NNE, etc.) and for various release point classifications (stack, vent, and ground level).

Revision 2.0 April 1999 B.2       GAUSSIAN PLUME MODELS As a plume of airborne effluents moves away from an elevated release point, the plume both broadens and meanders. It has been found that the time-averaged distribution of matt-ial in an effluent plume can be well represented mathematically by a Gaussian function.
B.2.1       Mathematical Representation In-a widely used form of the Gaussian plume model, the distribution of radioactivity in a plume is represented mathematically by the equation below:
X(x,y,z) - [OJ(2n cy czu)]exp(y 2 I2a 2 y) x {exp[-(z-he) 2 11cr2zo+ exp[-(z+he) 2 /2c2z])     (B1-9)
X(x,y,z)           Radioactivity Concentration                                                 IPCUrn3 The concentration of radioactivity at point (x,yz). The x, y, and z axis are defined as follows:
x             Downwind Distance                                             (m]
Distance from the stack along an axis parallel to the wind direction.
y             Crosswind Distance                                 .           [m]
Distance from the plume centerline along an axis parallel to the crosswind direction.

Standard deviations of the Gaussian distributions describing the plume cross-sections in the y and z directions, respectively. The values of cy and az depend on several parameters:
* Downwind distance x.
Because a plume broadens and meanders as it travels away from its release point, the values of ay and crz increase as x increases.
* Atmospheric stability class.
The plume is broadest for extremely unstable atmospheric conditions (Class

The two exponential functions of z in the curly brackets of Equation B-9 represent the emitted and reflected components of the plume. The reflected component (represented by the exponential with (z +he) in its argument) arises from the assumption that all material in a portion of the plume that touches ground is reflected upward. This assumption is conservative if one is calculating airborne radioactivity concentration.

I Function A dimensionless parameter obtained by numerical evaluation of integrals that arise in the plume gamma dose problem. The value of I depends on the' arguments (...) listed in Equation B-36. A specific'definition for I is given by Equation F-13 of Regulatory Guide 1.109.
The integrals involved in calculating I arise from conceptually dividing up the radioactive plume Into small elements of radioactivity and adding up the doses produced at the point of interest by all of the small elements. The distribution of radioactivity in the plume is represented by a sector-averaged Gaussian plume model like that discussed in Section B.2.2.
The parameters R, h.. un, and a. are defined in Section B.3.1.
B.5.2       Ground Level Release The gamma air dose factor GI for a ground level release is defined as follows:
GI                         Gamma Air Dose Factor, Ground Level Release                           [(mradlyr)/
(pCVsec)]
The gamma air dose factor at ground level for a ground level release for radionuclide 1,downwind sector 0, downwind distance R from the release point, and the average atmospheric conditions of a specified historical time period.
The value of GI is obtained by the same equation as used for a stack release, Equation B-36 of Section B.5.1, with the following modifications:
* The joint frequency distribution for a ground level release (f9 of Section B.1.2.3) is used in place of the one for a stack release (f,).
* In evaluating the I function, the effective release height h, is taken as zero.
This corresponds to use of a finite plume model. This approach differs from that of Regulatory Guide 1.109 in that the regulatory guide has a uniform semi-infinite cloud model to determine dose factors for a ground level release. The approach used here is more realistic than that in the regulatory guide.
B.5.3     Vent Release For a vent release, the gamma air dose factor is calculated as follows:

B.6
* WHOLE BODY DOSE FACTORS (SI, VI, GI)
The whole body dose factors provide a simple way of calculating doses and dose rates due to gamma irradiation of the whole body. They are similar to the gamma air dose factors (see the discussion at the beginning of Section 8.5). The whole body dose factors are defined for stack, vent, and ground level releases, respectively.
B.6.1       Stack Release To obtain the whole body dose factor for a stack release, Equation B-36 is modified to account for the attenuation of gamma radiation by 1 cm of tissue with a density of 1 g/m3. The following expression results:
Si = [2601(2itR/l6)] x Z{ fs(n,9,c)[exp(-%IRi3600un)]                                           (8-39) x Aki Ek Ija(Ek) I(he.unscz,Ek) x [l/unlexpij-Ta(Ek) td] }
The summation is over wind speed classes n, atmospheric stability classes c, and photon group indices k.
The change is the addition of the factor exp[-pTa(Ek) td].
All of the parameters are discussed in Section 8.5.1 except the following:
S,                   Whole Body Gamma Dose Factor, Stack Release                     [(mrad/yr)/(pCi/sec)]
The whole body gamma dose factor at ground level for a stack release for radionuclide 1,downwind sector 0, downwind distance R from the release point, and the average atmospheric conditions of a specified historical time period.
PT(Ek)                 Tissue Energy Absorption Coefficient                                     [cm2/g]
The mass energy absorption coefficient for tissue for photon energy group k.
The fraction of energy absorbed in tissue per unit distance of travel for a beam of photons of energy Ek with distance measured in units of density thickness (glcm2).
td                     Tissue Thickness                                                           [glcm2]

Taken as I g/cm2 to represent 1 cm of tissue with a density of 1 g/cm3 .

The equation for Gj is obtained from the equation for SI, Equation B-39 of Section B.6.1, by making the two modifications specified in Section B.5.2.
B.6.3       Vent Release To obtain the whole body dose factor for a vent release, Equation B-38 is modified to account for the attenuation of gamma radiation by 1 cm of tissue with a density of 1 g/cm3 . The following expression results:
VI = [2601(2iRl16)] x Z{ [Aki Ek pa(Ek)IUn]expl-I T a(Ek) td]                                   (B.40) x [exp(-%iR13600un)] X [fvelev(n,0,c)l(heuncazEk) + fvgnd(n0,c)l(OsuncazEk)] 1 The summation is over wind speed classes n, atmospheric stability classes c, and photon group indices k.

B.7         BETA AIR AND SKIN DOSE FACTORS (LILi)
The dose factors Li and L1 provide a simple way of calculating beta air and skin doses and dose rates, just as the gamma air dose factors do (see the discussion at the beginning of Section B.5). Their definitions are as follows:

These are obtained per the nuclear power station procedures.
B.12       RADIOLOGICAL DECAY CONSTANTS Values used for these are obtained from the literature and are specified in Table C-7 of Appendix C.
8.13       PRODUCTIONIEXPOSURE PARAMETERS These parameters characterize various aspects of agricultural production and human exposure. Values used for generic (site-independent) parameters are specified in Appendix C.
Values of site-specific parameters are given in Appendix F. Many of the values are based on Reg. Guide 1.109, while others are based on site-specific considerations.

MODELS AND PARAMETERS FOR LIQUID EFFLUENT CALCULATIONS B.14     INTRODUCTION Equations for radiation dose and radioactivity concentration due to liquid effluents are given in Section A.2 of Appendix A. The equations involve the following types of parameters:
* Flow and Dilution Parameters.
* Flow and Dilution Parameters.
* Dose Factors.* Measured Release Parameters.
* Dose Factors.
* Measured Release Parameters.
* Radiological Decay Constants.
* Radiological Decay Constants.
* Transport/Consumption Parameters.
* Transport/Consumption Parameters.
This section discusses the methodology used to determine these parameters.
This section discusses the methodology used to determine these parameters. Section B.15 addresses dose calculations and Section B.16 addresses concentration calculations for tank discharges. For dose' calculations, flow and dilution parameters are discussed for two different models; the River Model, which is used for all nuclear power stations except Zion, and the Lake Michigan Model, which is used for Zion.
Section B.15 addresses dose calculations and Section B.16 addresses concentration calculations for tank discharges.
B.15           DOSE B.15.1         Drinking Water The radiation dose due to consumption of drinking water containing released radioactivity is calculated by Equation A-30 of Appendix A:
For dose'calculations, flow and dilution parameters are discussed for two different models; the River Model, which is used for all nuclear power stations except Zion, and the Lake Michigan Model, which is used for Zion.B.15 DOSE B.15.1 Drinking Water The radiation dose due to consumption of drinking water containing released radioactivity is calculated by Equation A-30 of Appendix A: D WATER = (1.1E-3)(8760)(UwaMwIFw)
DWATER  = (1.1E-3)(8760)(UwaMwIFw) X Ad AIDFI~jaexp(-%jtw))                                         (A-30)
X Ad AIDFI~jaexp(-%jtw)) (A-30)The summation is over index I (radionuclides) and the parameters are defined in Section A.2.1 of Appendix A.This equation can be understood as arising from the following model:* Release of an amount A of radioactivity over a time period T at a uniform rate AIT into a stream flowing at a constant rate F. [The resulting radioactivity concentration in the flowing stream is (AIT)IF.]A fraction of full river flow in which dilution (mixing) occurs is represented by I/M (with 1/M < 1).* The radioactivity decays for a time t with decay constant X.* Water containing the diluted radioactivity is then consumed at constant rate U for a time period T.* The dose commitment per unit of ingested radioactivity is DFI.This model leads to the following equation for dose commitment:
The summation is over index I (radionuclides) and the parameters are defined in Section A.2.1 of Appendix A.
D = [(AIT)IF] (M) [exp(-Xt)] (UT) DFI (B-41)D = U (MIF) A DFI exp(-Xt) (B-42)Any set of consistent units can be used for the above parameters.
This equation can be understood as arising from the following model:
For example, the following would be suitable: A Released Radioactivity
* Release of an amount A of radioactivity over a time period T at a uniform rate AIT into a stream flowing at a constant rate F. [The resulting radioactivity concentration in the flowing stream is (AIT)IF.]

x 18760 hrlyr] (B-44)B.15.2 Aquatic Foods (Fish)Near the nuclear power stations, the only aquatic food of significance for human consumption is fish. The radiation dose due to consumption of fish containing released radioactivity is calculated by Equation A-31 of Appendix A: D lFsh = (l.IE-3) (8760) (UfaMf/Ff) x Z(AiBiDFIgjaexp(-%Itf)} (A-31)The summation is over radionuclides I, and the parameters are defined in Section A.2.1 of Appendix A.The form of this equation is like that used for calculating the dose due to drinking water except for the addition of the bioaccumulation factor, B.. This factor is the equilibrium ratio of the concentration of radionuclide I in fish (pCi/kg) to its concentration in water (pCiL). It accounts for the fact that radioactivity ingested by fish can accumulate in their bodies to a higher concentration than in the waters in which the fish live.B.15.3 Parameters B.15.3.1 Flow, Dilution, and Transport Time The values of dilution flow rate F. dilution factor 11M, and decay period t can differ for water and fish. The dilution and decay parameters for water will depend on where water is drawn, while those for fish will depend on where the fish are caught. Models used to determine these parameters are discussed below. The values used for each station are summarized in Table F-1 of Appendix F.B.15.3.1.1 River Model For the purpose of calculating the drinking water dose from liquid effluents discharged into a river, it is assumed that total mixing of the discharge in the river flow (Fw) occurs prior to consumption.
D = U (MIF) A DFI exp(-Xt)                                           (B-42)
The measure of dilution used is the parameter 11Mw and may be thought of as the fraction of full river flow in which dilution occurs. 11 Mw = 1 represents full dilution, II Mw less than I represents dilution in only a portion of the river.G:/odcm/generic/AnBr2-01 B-22 Revision 2.0 April 1999 The river flow is taken as the long-term average (generally 10 years). The time period for decay is based on the flow time to the nearest potable water intake on the receiving body of water. This location is described in a footnote to Table F-1 of Appendix F.For the fish consumption pathway, a near-field dilution flow (F t) is used. This is an estimate of the dilution of released radioactivity in the water consumed by fish caught near the station downstream of its discharge.
Any set of consistent units can be used for the above parameters. For example, the following would be suitable:
No additional dilution is assumed to occur. The decay time between release of radioactivity and its consumption in fish is taken as 24 hours.B.15.3.1.2 Lake Michigan Model Only (Zion) discharges liquid effluents into Lake Michigan.
A       Released Radioactivity                                                                   [pCI]
For this nuclear power station, It is assumed that the concentration of radioactivity is diluted initially In the condenser cooling water flow (Fc) and then by an additional factor of 60 prior to consumption as potable water (ie; Fw = F / 60). The dilution factor of 60 is the product of the following:
T       Period of Release and Consumption                                                       [hr]
* Initial entrainment dilution (factor of 10).* Plume dilution (factor of 3 over approximately I mile).* Current direction frequency (annual average factor of 2).For the fish ingestion pathway only, it is assumed that radioactivity is diluted in a hypothetical river of flow F'with dilution 11 Ml = 1.0. To determine Ff, it was assumed that the near shore lake current constitutes a "river" with the following characteristics:
F       Dilution Stream Flow Rate                                                       .       [Lhr) 1/M     Additional Dilution Factor                                                               [dimensionless]
* Width of 5 miles (based on the observed width of the lake current varying from 2 to 10 miles).* Depth of 50 feet (the average take depth from shore out to 5 miles near Zion).* Flow rate of 0.2 miles per hour (the measured, offshore average value).This results in F' = 4E5 cfs. The decay time between' release of radioactivity and its consumption in fish is taken as 24 hours.B.15.3.2 Dose Factors Equations A-30 and A-31 of Appendix A determine dose'due to ingested radioactivity using the same ingestion dose factor DFIIJa as used in the evaluation of airborne radioactivity which is ingested with foods.The units of DFIIja are: (mrem) per (pCi ingested)For 10CFR50 Appendix I compliance, the data of Tables E-1, E-12, E-13 and E-14 of Reg. Guide 1.109, are used for four age groups and for seven organs, with the whole body considered as an organ.For 1OCFR20 compliance, the data of Federal Guidance Report 11 (Reference

C-i Revision 2.0 April 1999 APPENDIX C GENERIC DATA C.1 INTRODUCTION This appendix contains generic (common to one or more of the stations) offsite dose calculation parameter factors, or values. Site specific factors are provided in the station annex Appendix F. The factors described in section C.2 and C.3 are found In the prescribed references and are not repeated in this appendix.C.2 10CFR50 DOSE COMMITMENT FACTORS The dose commitment factors for 10CFR50 related calculations are exactly those provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6). The following table lists the parameters and the corresponding data tables in the RG 1.109: PATHWAY ADULT TEENAGER CHILD INFANT Inhalation RG 1.109:Table E-7 RG 1.109:Table E-8 RG 1.109:Table E-9 RG 1.109:Table E-10 Ingestion RG 1.109:Table E-11 RG 1.109:Table E-12 RG 1.109:Table E-13 RG 1.109:Table E-14 These tables are contained in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6). Each table (E-7 through E-14)provides dose factors for seven organs for each of,73 radionuclides.
The summation is over radionuclides I, and the parameters are defined in Section A.2.1 of Appendix A.
For radionuclides not found in these tables, dose factors will be derived from ICRP 2 (Reference
The form of this equation is like that used for calculating the dose due to drinking water except for the addition of the bioaccumulation factor, B.. This factor is the equilibrium ratio of the concentration of radionuclide I in fish (pCi/kg) to its concentration in water (pCiL). It accounts for the fact that radioactivity ingested by fish can accumulate in their bodies to a higher concentration than in the waters in which the fish live.
: 50) or NUREG-0172 (Reference 51).C.3 IOCFR20 DOSE COMMITMENT FACTORS Dose commitment factors for 10CFR20 related calculations are exactly those provided Federal Guidance Report Number 11 (Reference 93). The following table lists the parameters and the corresponding tables in the RG 1.109: PATHWAY AVERAGE INDIVIDUAL Inhalation FGR-11: Table 2.1 Ingestion FGR-11: Table 2.2 The factors used in offsite dose calculations are for the seven organs (Gonad, Breast, Lung, R.: Marrow, B. Surface, Thyroid and Remainder organs) but do not include the Effective (weighted) values. The factors in FGR#1 I have units of Sieverts/Becquerel (SvIBq). To convert to traditional units of mremlpCi multiply the factors by 3.7E+3.NOTE: There are radionuclides listed in FGR-1 1 that have more than one clearance classification (day, week or year). For these nuclides, a conservative approach was used to pick the dose commitment factors for the dose calculations.
B.15.3     Parameters B.15.3.1 Flow, Dilution, and Transport Time The values of dilution flow rate F. dilution factor 11M, and decay period t can differ for water and fish. The dilution and decay parameters for water will depend on where water is drawn, while those for fish will depend on where the fish are caught. Models used to determine these parameters are discussed below. The values used for each station are summarized in Table F-1 of Appendix F.
For these nuclides, the highest (largest) value was picked for each organ no matter which clearance class it belonged to. As a result, for dose calculations involving these nuclides, the resulting calculated dose will be conservatively high when compared to a calculation that uses only the dose commitment factors for the clearance classification with the highest value for the Effective dose conversion factor. For example: Assume that the radionuclide in question Is Mg-28 and the pathway is inhalation.
B.15.3.1.1   River Model For the purpose of calculating the drinking water dose from liquid effluents discharged into a river, it is assumed that total mixing of the discharge in the river flow (Fw) occurs prior to consumption. The measure of dilution used isthe parameter 11Mw and may be thought of as the fraction of full river flow in which dilution occurs. 11 Mw = 1 represents full dilution, II Mw less than I represents dilution in only a portion of the river.
From Table 2.1 in FGR-11, the dose commitment values are: Nuclide Classtf, Gonad Breast Luna R. Marrow B. Surface Thyroid Remainder Effective Mg-28 D 2.91E-10 2.07E-10 2.96E-9 7.96E-10 1.42E-9 1.78E-10 .1.04E-9 9.16E.10 W 2.59E-1 0 1.46E-1 0 5.92E-9 4.03E-1 0 6.4E-10 1.07E-1 0 1.55E-9 1.33E-9 Mg-28 has two clearance classifications; D and W.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 The river flow is taken as the long-term average (generally 10 years). The time period for decay is based on the flow time to the nearest potable water intake on the receiving body of water. This location is described in a footnote to Table F-1 of Appendix F.
A th = 24 hr (1 day for leafy vegetables)
For the fish consumption pathway, a near-field dilution flow (Ft ) is used. This is an estimate of the dilution of released radioactivity in the water consumed by fish caught near the station downstream of its discharge. No additional dilution is assumed to occur. The decay time between release of radioactivity and its consumption in fish is taken as 24 hours.
A t,= 1440 hr (60 days for produce) A 1 = 2160 hr for stored feed (milk and meat pathways)
B.15.3.1.2     Lake Michigan Model Only (Zion) discharges liquid effluents into Lake Michigan. For this nuclear power station, It is assumed that the concentration of radioactivity is diluted initially In the condenser cooling water flow (Fc) and then by an additional factor of 60 prior to consumption as potable water (ie; Fw = F / 60). The dilution factor of 60 is the product of the following:
A t = 720 hr (30 days for milk and meat) A t = 1440 hr (60 days for produce or leafy vegetables)
* Initial entrainment dilution (factor of 10).

-B-Miscellaneous Dose Assessment Factors -Environmental Parameters
For the fish ingestion pathway only, it is assumed that radioactivity is diluted in a hypothetical river of flow F' with dilution 11 Ml = 1.0. To determine Ff, it was assumed that the near shore lake current constitutes a "river" with the following characteristics:
*Basis key: A: Reference 6, Table E-15.B: Typical fdr climate of Illinois and vicinity.C: Reference 6, Table E-3.D: The parameter th is taken as the midpoint of plant operating life (per Reference 6, Appendix C; Section 1).G:/odcm/genericlAttCr2-0/

* Flow rate of 0.2 miles per hour (the measured, offshore average value).
This results in F' = 4E5 cfs. The decay time between' release of radioactivity and its consumption in fish is taken as 24 hours.
B.15.3.2 Dose Factors Equations A-30 and A-31 of Appendix A determine dose'due to ingested radioactivity using the same ingestion dose factor DFIIJa as used in the evaluation of airborne radioactivity which is ingested with foods.
The units of DFIIja are:
(mrem) per (pCi ingested)
For 10CFR50 Appendix I compliance, the data of Tables E-1, E-12, E-13 and E-14 of Reg. Guide 1.109, are used for four age groups and for seven organs, with the whole body considered as an organ.
For 10CFR20 compliance, the data of Federal Guidance Report 11 (Reference 93) are used. Data are provided for an adult only, and all organs. Note these data have units of Sieverts per Becquerel ingested and must be multiplied by 3.7x109 to convert to units of (mrem) per (pCi ingested).
B.15.3.3       Measured Releases Calculations of dose due to liquid effluents require measured values of radioactivity release (Al) for input.
These release values are obtained per the nuclear power station procedures.
B.15.3.4       Radiological Decay Values used for these constants are obtained from the literature and are listed in Table C-7 of Appendix C.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 B.15.3.5     Consumption Equations A-30 and A-31 of Appendix A involve consumption rates for water and fish (UWa and Ufa). The values used are. specified for each nuclear power station in Table F-I of Appendix F.
6.16         CONCENTRATION IN TANK DISCHARGES The concentration of radioactivity in a release to the unrestricted area due to a tank discharge is calculated by Equation A-33 of Appendix A:
C1 = (Ct, )(Fr)I(Fd + Fr)                                             (A-33)
The parameters are defined in Section A.2.3 of Appendix A.
The radioactivity concentration released from the tank (Ct, at flow rate Fr) is diluted by mixing with the initial dilution stream (with flow rate Fd) to yield a lower concentration (C1 ) in the combined streams.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 APPENDIX C GENERIC DATA C.1         INTRODUCTION This appendix contains generic (common to one or more of the stations) offsite dose calculation parameter factors, or values. Site specific factors are provided in the station annex Appendix F. The factors described in section C.2 and C.3 are found In the prescribed references and are not repeated in this appendix.
C.2         10CFR50 DOSE COMMITMENT FACTORS The dose commitment factors for 10CFR50 related calculations are exactly those provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6). The following table lists the parameters and the corresponding data tables in the RG 1.109:
PATHWAY                 ADULT               TEENAGER                     CHILD                   INFANT Inhalation       RG 1.109:Table E-7     RG 1.109:Table E-8       RG 1.109:Table E-9       RG 1.109:Table E-10 Ingestion       RG 1.109:Table E-11     RG 1.109:Table E-12     RG 1.109:Table E-13     RG 1.109:Table E-14 These tables are contained in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6). Each table (E-7 through E-14) provides dose factors for seven organs for each of,73 radionuclides. For radionuclides not found in these tables, dose factors will be derived from ICRP 2 (Reference 50) or NUREG-0172 (Reference 51).
C.3         IOCFR20 DOSE COMMITMENT FACTORS Dose commitment factors for 10CFR20 related calculations are exactly those provided Federal Guidance Report Number 11 (Reference 93). The following table lists the parameters and the corresponding tables in the RG 1.109:
PATHWAY               AVERAGE INDIVIDUAL Inhalation               FGR-11: Table 2.1 Ingestion               FGR-11: Table 2.2 The factors used in offsite dose calculations are for the seven organs (Gonad, Breast, Lung, R.: Marrow, B. Surface, Thyroid and Remainder organs) but do not include the Effective (weighted) values. The factors in FGR#1 I have units of Sieverts/Becquerel (SvIBq). To convert to traditional units of mremlpCi multiply the factors by 3.7E+3.
NOTE: There are radionuclides listed in FGR-1 1 that have more than one clearance classification (day, week or year). For these nuclides, a conservative approach was used to pick the dose commitment factors for the dose calculations. For these nuclides, the highest (largest) value was picked for each organ no matter which clearance class it belonged to. As a result, for dose calculations involving these nuclides, the resulting calculated dose will be conservatively high when compared to a calculation that uses only the dose commitment factors for the clearance classification with the highest value for the Effective dose conversion factor. For example:
Assume that the radionuclide in question Is Mg-28 and the pathway is inhalation. From Table 2.1 in FGR-11, the dose commitment values are:
Nuclide   Classtf,   Gonad       Breast       Luna     R. Marrow     B. Surface   Thyroid   Remainder       Effective Mg-28       D       2.91E-10   2.07E-10     2.96E-9     7.96E-10     1.42E-9   1.78E-10     .1.04E-9     9.16E.10 W       2.59E-1 0   1.46E-1 0   5.92E-9     4.03E-1 0     6.4E-10     1.07E-1 0   1.55E-9       1.33E-9 Mg-28 has two clearance classifications; D and W. The clearance class with the highest effective dose conversion factor (the column on the far right) is 5W"clearance class. But the actual factors used in the G:Iodcrnlgeneric1AttCr2-0I                             -
C-1
 
Revision 2.0 April 1999 ODCM offsite dose calculations are picked from the highest value listed for each organ as shown in the bold text in the next table:
Nuclide   Clan!L,   Gonad       Breast     Luna       R. Marrow B. Surface Thvroid   Remainder     Effective Mg-28       D     2.91E-10   2.07E-10   2.96E-9     7.96E-10   1.42E-9   1.78E-10     1.04E-9     9.16E-10 W     2.59E-10   1.46E-10   6.92E-9     4.03E-1 0 6.4E-10   1.07E-10     1.55E-9       1.33E&9.
Since some values are used from each of the classifications (the lung and remainder factors are class W and the gonad, breast, marrow, bone surface and thyroid are class D), the actual offsite dose calculation will result in a higher (more conservative) dose than if the organ dose conversion factors corresponding to the highest Effective dose conversion factor were used.

There are numerous FE and Fu values that were not found In published literature. In these cases, the periodic table was used In conjunction with published values. The periodic table was used based on a general assumption that elements have similar characteristics when In the same column of the periodic table. The values of elements In the same column of the periodic table. excluding atomic numbers 58-71 and 90-103, were averaged then assigned to elements missing values located in the same column of the periodic table. This method was used for all columns where there were missing values except column 3A, where there was no data, hence, the average of column 2B and 4A were used.

RADIOACTIVE LIQUID WASTE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM TABLE NOTATION
'1)   The LLD is defined, for purposes of these specifications, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a 'real' signal.
For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation:
LLD =               4.665b E*Ve2.22 x 106 - Y* exp (-XAt)
Where:
LLD = the lower limit of detection (microCuries per unit mass or volume),
Sb = the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (counts per minute),
E = the counting efficiency (counts per disintegration),
V = the sample size (units of mass or volume),
2.22 x 106 = the number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie, Y = the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, X= the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec 1), and At = the elapsed time between the midpoint of sample collection and the time of counting (sec).
Typical values of E, V, Y, and At should be used in the calculation.
Alternate LLD Methodology An alternate methodology for LLD determination follows and is similar to the above LLD equation:
(2.71 + 4.654B). Decay LLD=
E q b Y t (2.22E06)

DRESDEN                                       Revision 5     l October 2003 TABLE 12.3-2 (Continued)
RADIOACTIVE LIQUID WASTE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM TABLE NOTATION Where:
B = background sum (counts)
E = counting efficiency, (counts detected/disintegrations) q = sample quantity, (mass or volume) b = abundance, (if applicable)
Y = fractional radiochemical yield or collection efficiency, (if applicable) t = count time (minutes) 2.22E06 = number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie (2.71 + 4.654B) = k2 + (2k v 2 -i B), and k = 1.645.
(k=value of the t statistic from the single-tailed t distribution at a significance level of 0.95% and infinite degrees of freedom. This means that the LLD result represents a 95% detection probability with a 5% probability of falsely concluding that the nuclide present when it is not or that the nuclide is not present when it is.)
Decay = et [XRT/(1 -e       )] [XTd /(1 -eTdl, (if applicable) x = radioactive decay constant, (units consistent with At, RT and TdO At = "delta t", or the elapsed time between sample collection or the midpoint of sample collection and the time the count is started, depending on the type of sample, (units consistent with X)
RT = elapsed real time, or the duration of the sample count, (units consistent with X)
Td = sample deposition time, or the duration of analyte collection onto the sample media, (unit consistent with X)
The LLD may be determined using installed radioanalytical software, if available. In addition to determining the correct number of channels over which to total the background sum, utilizing the software's ability to perform decay corrections (i.e. during sample collection, from sample collection to start of analysis and during counting), this alternate method will result in a more accurate determination of the LLD.
It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a before the fact limit and not as an after the fact limit for a particular measurement.

RADIOACTIVE LIQUID WASTE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM TABLE NOTATION (2)     A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid samples 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.
If the alarm setpoint of the service water effluent monitor as determined in the ODCM is exceeded, the frequency of analysis shall be increased to daily until the condition no longer exists.
(4)     A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for analyses, each batch shall be isolated and then thoroughly mixed to assure representative sampling. A continuous release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a nondiscrete volume; e.g.,
from a volume or system that has an input flow during the release.
(5)     The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification applies exclusively are the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Co-58, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141. Ce-144 shall also be measured, but with an LLD of 5E-06. Other peaks which are measurable and identifiable by gamma ray spectrometry together with the above nuclides, shall be also identified and reported when the actual analysis is performed on a sample. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses shall not be reported as being present at the LLD level for that nuclide.
(6)     The dissolved and entrained gases (gamma emitters) for which the LLD specification applies exclusively are the following radionuclides: Kr-87, Kr-88, Xe-1 33, Xe-1 33m, Xe-1 35, and Xe-i 38.
Other dissolved and entrained gases (gamma emitters) which are measurable and identifiable by gamma ray spectrometry, together with the above nuclides, shall also be identified and reported when an actual analysis is performed on a sample. Nuclides which are below the LLD for the analyses shall not be reported as being present at the LLD level for that nuclide.

: 1. Concentration 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 Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 to 10CFR20.1 001-20.2402.
: 2. Dose This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.A, II.A and IV.A of Appendix 1,10 CFR Part 50. The operational requirements implements the guides set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I. The 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 liquid effluents will be kept 'as low as reasonably achievable". The dose calculations in the ODCM implement the requirements in Section IIL.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 ODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be consistent with 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 1.1 13, "Estimating Aquatic Dispersion of Effluents from Accidental and Routine Reactor Releases for the Purpose of Implementing Appendix l", April 1977. NUREG-0113 provides methods for dose calculations consistent with Reg Guide 1.109 and 1.1 13.
: 3. Liquid Waste Treatment 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 assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be kept 'as low as reasonably achievable'. This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and design objective Section 11.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 CHAPTER 1 1.0 Introduction The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) presents a discussion of the following:

  • The basic concepts applied in calculating offsite doses from nuclear plant effluents.
  • The regulations and requirements for the ODCM and related programs
  • The methodology and parameters for the offsite dose calculations used by the nuclear power stations to assess impact on the environment and compliance with regulations.

The methodology detailed In this manual is intended for the calculation of radiation doses during routine (i.e., non-accident) conditions. The calculations are normally performed using a computer program.

Manual calculations may be performed in lieu of the computer program.

The dose effects of airborne radioactivity releases predominately depend on meteorological conditions (wind speed, wind direction, and atmospheric stability). For airborne effluents, the dose calculations prescribed in this manual are based on historical average atmospheric conditions. This methodology is appropriate for estimating annual average dose effects and is stipulated in the Bases Section of the Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS) of all ComEd nuclear power stations.

1.1 STRUCTURE OF THIS MANUAL This manual is the ODCM for all ComEd nuclear power stations. It is divided into two parts. The material Inthe first part is generic (applicable to more than one station) and consists of Chapters 1 through 7 and Appendices A through C. The material inthe second part is station (or site) specific.

Therefore, there are six separate sets of station-specific sections each containing three chapters (chapters 10, 11, 12) and an appendix (App. F).

The chapters of the generic section provide a brief Introduction to and overview of ComEd's offsite dose calculation methodology and parameters. The generic section appendices, Appendices A and B, provide detailed information on specific aspects of the methodology. Appendix C contains tables of values of the generic parameters used in offsite dose equations.

The station-specific section provides specific requirements for the treatment and monitoring of radioactive effluents, for the contents of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) and the Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS). These three programs are detailed in ODCM Chapters 10, 11 and 12 respectively. Appendix F contains tables of values for the station-specific parameters used Inthe offsite dose equations. References are provided as required in each station-specific chapter and appendix.

An ODCM Bases and Reference Document (see Reference 101) provides description of the bases for the methodology and parameters discussed in the generic section of the ODCM. This is a stand-alone document and is not considered to be a part of the ODCM.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 CHAPTER 2 REGULATIONS AND GUIDELINES

2.0 INTRODUCTION

This chapter of the ODCM serves to illustrate the regulations and requirements that define and are applicable to thd ODCM. Any information provided in the ODCM concerning specific regulations are not a substitute for the regulations as found in the CFR or Technical Specifications.

2.1 CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS Various sections of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) require nuclear power stations to be designed and operated In a manner that limits the radiation exposure to members of the public. These sections specify limits on offsite radiation doses and on effluent radioactivity concentrations and they also require releases of radioactivity to be "As Low As Reasonably Achievable". These requirements are contained in 10CFR20, 10CFR50 and 40CFR190. In addition, 40CFRI41 Imposes limits on the concentration of radioactivity in drinking water provided by the operators of public water systems.

2.1.1 10CFR20, Standards for Protection Against Radiation This revision of the ODCM addresses the requirements of 10CFR20. The iOCFR20 dose limits are summarized in Table 2-1.

2.1.2 Design Criteria (Appendix A of IOCFR50)

Section 50.36 of IOCFR50 requires that an applica.tion for an operating license include proposed Technical Specifications. Final Technical Specifications for each station are developed through negotiation between the applicant and the NRC. The Technical Specifications are then issued as a part of the operating license, and the licensee is required to operate the facility In accordance with them.

Section 50.34 of 10CFR50 states that an application for a license must state the principal design criteria of the facility. Minimum requirements are contained in Appendix A of 10CFR50.

2.1.3 ALARA ProvisIons (Appendix I of 10CFR50)

Sections 50.34a and 50.36a of IOCFR50 require that the nuclear plant design and the station RETS have provisions to keep levels of radioactive materials in effluents to unrestricted areas "As Low As Reasonably Achievable" (ALARA). Although IOCFR50 does not impose specific limits on releases, Appendix I of 10CFR50 does provide numerical design objectives and suggested limiting conditions for operation.

According to Section I of Appendix I of 10CFR50, design objectives and limiting conditions for operation, conforming to the guidelines of Appendix I "shall be deemed a conclusive showing of compliance with the "As Low As Reasonably Achievable" requirements of IOCFR50.34a and 50.36a."

An applicant must use calculations to demonstrate conformance with the design objective dose limits of Appendix I. The calculations are to be based on models and data such that the actual radiation exposure of an individual is "unlikely to be substantially underestimated" (see 10CFR50 Appendix I, Section 1Il.A.1)..

The guidelines in Appendix I call for an investigation, corrective action and a report to the NRC whenever the calculated dose due to the radioactivity released in a calendar quarter exceeds one-half of an annual design objective. The guidelines also require a surveillance program to monitor releases, monitor the environment and identify changes in land use.

giodcnlgenedclrev2-01 2

Revision 2.0 April 1999 2.1.4 40CFRI90, Environmental Radiation Protectilon Standards for Nuclear Power Operations Under an agreement between the NRC and the EPA, the NRC stipulated to its licensees In Generic Letter 79-041 that "Compliance with Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (RETS), NUREG-0472 (Rev.2) for PWR's or NUREG-0473 (Rev.2) for BWR's,implements the LWR provisi6os to meet 4OCFRI90". (See Reference 103 and 49.)

The regulations of 40CFR190 limit radiation doses received by members of the public as a result of operations that are part of the uranium fuel cycle. Operations must be conducted in such a manner as to provide reasonable assurance that the annual dose equivalent to any member of the public due to radiation and to planned discharges of radioactive materials does not exceed the following limits:

  • 25 mrem to the whole body 75 mrem to the thyroid
  • 25 mrem to any other organ An important difference between the design objectives of 10CFR50 and the limits of 40CFR190 is that 10CFR50 addresses only doses due to radioactive effluents. 40CFRI90 limits doses due to effluents and also to radiation sources maintained on site. See Section 2.4 for further discussion of the differences between the requirements of I OCFR50 Appendix I and 40CFRI 90.

2.1.5 40CFRI41, National Primary Drinking Water Reg'ulations The following radioactivity limits for community water systerms were established in the July, 1976 Edition of 40CFRI41:

  • Combined Ra-226 and Ra-228: < 5-pCVL.
  • Gross alpha (particle activity including Ra-226 but excluding radon and uranium): < 15 pCiIL.
  • The average annual concentration of beta particle and photon radioactivity from man-made radionuclides in drinking water shall not produce an annual dose equivalent to the whole body
  • or any internal organ greater than 4 mrem/yr.

The regulations specify procedures for determining the values of annual average radionuclide concentration which produce an annual dose equivalent of 4 mrem. Radiochemical analysis methods are also specified.

The responsibility for monitoring radioactivity in a community water system falls on the supplier of the water.

However, some of the ComEd stations have requirements related to 40CFRI41 in their specific RETS. For calculational methodology, see Section A.6 of Appendix A.

2.2 RADIOLOGICAL EFFLUENT TECHNICAL STANDARDS The Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS) were formerly a subset of the Technical Specifications. They implement provisions of the Code of Federal Regulations aimed at limiting offsite radiation dose. The NRC published Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications for PWRs (Reference 2) and for BWRs (Reference 3) as guidance to assist in the development of technical specifications. These documents have undergone frequent minor revisions to reflect changes in plant design and evolving regulatory concerns. The Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications have been removed from the Technical Specifications and placed Inthe ODCM as the Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS) (see Reference 90). The RETS of each station are similar but not Identical to the guidance of the Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications.

g/odcnvgenerkclrev2- 3

Revision 2.0 April 1999 2.2.1 Categories The major categories found in the RETS are the following:

  • Definitions A glossary of terms (not limited to the ODCM).
  • Instrumentation This section states the Operability Requirements (OR) for instrumentation performance as well as the associated Surveillance Requirements. The, conservative alarm/trip setpoints ensure regulatory compliance for both liquid and gaseous effluents. Surveillance requirements are listed to ensure ORs are met through testing, calibration, inspection and calculation. Also included are the bases for interpreting the requirements. The Operability Requirement (OR) is the ODCM equivalent of a Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) as defined In both the NRC published Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications and the stations' Technical Specifications.
  • Liquid Effluents This section addresses the limits, special reports and liquid waste treatment systems required to substantiate the dose due to liquid radioactivity concentrations to unrestricted areas.

Surveillance Requirerments and Bases are included for liquid effluents.

  • Gaseous Effluents This section addresses the limits, special reports and gaseous radwaste and ventilation exhaust treatment systems necessary for adequate documentation of the instantaneous offsite radiation dose rates and doses to a member of the public. Surveillance Requirements and Bases are included for gaseous effluents.
  • Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program This section details the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) involving sample collection and measurements to verify that the radiation levels released are minimal.

This section describes the annual land use census and participation in an interlaboratory comparison program. Surveillance Requirements and Bases are included for environmental monitoring.

  • Reports and Records This section serves as an administrative guide to maintain an appropriate record tracking system. The management of procedures, record retention, review/audit and reporting are discussed.

2.3 OFFSITE DOSE CALCULATION MANUAL The NRC in Generic Letter 89-01 defines the ODCM as-follows (not verbatim) (see Reference 90):

The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) shall contain the methodology and parameters used in the calculation of offsite doses resulting from radioactive gaseous and liquid effluents, in the calculation of gaseous and liquid effluent monitoring Alarm/Trip Setpoints, and in the conduct of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program. The ODCM shall also contain (1) the Radioactive Effluent Controls and Radiological Environmental Monitoring Programs and (2) descriptions of the Information that should be included in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating and Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Reports.

Additional requirements for the content of the ODCM are contained throughout the text of the RETS.

glodcm/genedrec/v2-01 4

Revision 2.0 April 1999 2A OVERLAPPING REQUIREMENTS In 10CFR20, 10CFR50 and 40CFRI90, there are overlapping requirements regarding offsite radiation dose and dose commitment to the whole body. In 10CFR20.1301 the total elective dose equivalent to a memnber of the public is limited to 100 mrem per.calendar year. In addition, Appendix I to IOCFR50 establishes design objectives on annual total body dose or dose commitment of 3 mrem per reactor for liquid effluents and 5 mrem per reactor for gaseous effluents (see 10CFR50 Appendix I, Sections ILA and ll1.B.2(a)). Finally, 40CFRI 90 limits annual whole body dose or dose commitment to a member of the public to 25 mrem due to all uranium fuel cycle operations.

While these dose limits/design objectives appear to overlap, they are different and each is addressed separately by the RETS. Calculations are made and reports are generated to demonstrate compliance to all regulations. Refer to Tables 2-1, 2-2 and 2-3 for additional information regarding instantaneous effluent limits, design objectives and regulatory compliance.

2.5 Dose Receiver Methodology Table 2-2 lists the location of the dose recipient and occupancy factors, if applicable. In general, the dose receiver spends time in the locations that result in maximum direct dose exposure and inhales and ingests radioactivity at locations that yield maximum pathway doses. Thus, the dose calculated is very conservative compared to the "average" (or typical) dose recipient who does not go out of the way to maximize radioactivity uptakes and exposure.

Finally Table 2-3 relates the dose component (or pathway) to specific ODCM equations and the appropriate regulation.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE PATHWAYS I

3.0 INTRODUCTION

Figure 3-1 illustrates some of the potential radiation exposure pathways to humans due to routine operation of a nuclear power station. These exposure pathways may be grouped into three categories:

  • AirborneReleases Exposures resulting from radioactive materials released with gaseous effluents to the atmosphere.
  • Liquid Releases Exposures resulting from radioactive materials released with liquid discharges to bodies of
  • water.
  • Radiation from Contained Sources Exposures to radiation from contained radioactive sources.

When performing radiation dose calculations, only exposure pathways that significantly contribute (2

    • 10%) to the total dose of interest need to be evaluated. The radiation dose from air and water exposure

3.1 AIRBORNE RELEASES For airborne releases of radioactivity (Figure 3-1), the NRC considers the following pathways of radiation exposure of persons:

  • Radiation from radioactivity airborne Inthe effluent plume.
  • Radiation from radioactivity deposited by the plume on the ground.
  • Ingestion of radioactivity on, or in, edible vegetation (from direct plume deposition or from the transfer of radioactivity deposited on the soil).
  • Ingestion of radioactivity that entered an animal food product (milk or meat) because the animal ingested contaminated feed, with the contamination due either to direct deposition on foliage or to uptake from the soil.
  • Inhalation of radioactivity In the plume.

ComEd considers these same pathways with the exception that the transfer of radioactivity from soil to vegetation is omitted. .This pathway was determined to be of minimal significance In relation to the other airborne exposure pathways.

3.2 LIQUID RELEASES For liquid releases of radioactivity (Figure 3-1), the NRC considers the following pathways of radiation exposure of persons:

0 Direct exposure to radioactivity in water while engaging in recreational activities such as swimming and boating.

  • Exposure to radiation from shoreline sediments contaminated by water containing radioactivity from station liquid discharges.
  • Ingestion of edible vegetation contaminated by irrigation with water containing radioactivity from station liquid discharges.

giodcn/generic/rev2-/2 12

Revision 2.0 April 1999

  • Ingestion of radioactivity from animal food products (milk or meat) resulting from the animal either drinking water contaminated by radioactive liquid effluents or from the animal eating feed or vegetation contaminated by irrigation with such water.
  • Ingestion of aquatic food (e.g., fish) obtained from the body of water to which radioactive station effluents are discharged.
  • Ingestion (drinking) of potable water contaminated by radioactive liquid effluents discharged from the station.

ComEd considers the latter two of these pathways as significant For the aquatic food pathway, only fish is considered since It is the only significant locally produced aquatic'food consumed by humans.

The stations omit the pathways involving Irrigation and animal consumption of contaminated water because these pathways were determined to be insignificant The stations also omit the pathway of radiation exposure from shoreline sediment because this pathway was also found to be Insignificant (see ODCM Bases and Reference Document, Section 0.3.2).

The stations have also verified that the dose contribution to people participating in water recreational activities (swimming and boating) is negligible. (See ODCM Bases and Reference Document, Reference 101, Tables 0-3 and 0-4)' This pathway was not addressed explicitly in Regulatory Guide 1.109. Thus, the stations also omit dose assessments for the water recreational activities pathway.

Periodically the Illinois Army Coips of Engineers dredges silt and debris from the river beds near ComEd nuclear stations. As a part of the land use census, ComEd will determine Ifthe Corps performed dredging within one mile of the discharge point. If so, ComEd will obtain spoils samples, through Its REMP vendor, for analysis. The impact to the offsite dose will be evaluated on a case by case basis and added to the'station annex of the ODCM when applicable.

In addition, to assure that doses due to radioactivity in liquid effluents will be ALARA, concentrations will be limited to ten times (1Ox) the values given in I OCFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2. Specific limitations for concentrations of entrained noble gases are contained in the stations' Radiological Effluent Technical Standards (RETS).

3.3 RADIATION FROM CONTAINED SOURCES Radioactivity contained within tanks, pipes or other systems and contained radioactive material or waste stored on site can produce radiation at offsite locations. Annual offsite radiation doses near the stations due to such sources were judged to be negligible in comparison with applicable limits except for doses due to BWR turbine skyshine and potential doses due to radioactive waste storage facilities (excludes radioactive material storage). See ODCM Bases and Reference Document, Reference 101. Changes or modifications to the power station that may impact the offsite dose through increases to the direct radiation levels need to be evaluated on a case by case basis and added to Chapter 12 of the station

Revision 2.0 April 1999 CHAPTER 4 METHODOLOGY

4.0 INTRODUCTION

This chapter provides an introduction to the methodology used by ComEd to calculate offsite radiation doses resulting from the operation of nuclear power stations. Additional explanation and details of the methodology are provided in Appendices A and B. Appendix A discusses each dose limit Inthe RETS.

and provides the associated assessment equations. Appendix B describes methods used to determine values of parameters included in the equations.

4.1 IMPORTANT CONCEPTS AND PARAMETERS 4.1.1 Dose and Dose Commitment The dose calculation equations contained in the ODCM are based on two types of exposure to radiation; external and internal exposure. The first type of exposure is that resulting from radioactive sources external to the body (including radiation emanating from an effluent plume, radiation emanating from radioactivity deposited on the ground and radiation emanating from contained sources (also referred to as direct radiation)). Exposure to radiation external to the body only occurs while the source of the radioactivity is present. For example, once a plume containing the airborne radioactivity passes by the individual, the external exposure to radiation ends.

The second type of exposure occurs when the source of radioactivity Is inside the body, or Intemral.

Radiation can enter the body by breathing air containing the radioactivity, or by eating food or drinking water containing radioactivity. These latter processes are also referred to as ingesting radioactivity (ingestion). Once radioactivity enters the body and becomes internal radiation, a person will continue to receive radiation dose until the radioactivity has decayed or is eliminated by biological processes. The dose from this type of exposure is also termed dose commitment, meaning that the person will continue to receive dose even-though the plume containing the radioactivity has passed by the individual, or even-though the individual is no longer drinking water containing radioactivity.

The regulations addressed by the ODCM may require assessment of either type of exposure to radiation or of both types in summation.

4.1.2 Exposure Pathways All of the exposure pathways are discussed in Chapter 3. This section presents the exposure pathways addressed by CoinEd nuclear stations in the ODCM and associated software.

For releases of radioactivity in airborne effluents the primary pathways are the following:

  • Direct radiation from an effluent plume.
  • Direct radiation from radioactivity deposited on the ground by a plume.
  • Inhalation of radioactivity in a plume.
  • Ingestion of radioactivity that entered the food chain from a plume that deposited the radioactivity on vegetation.

For releases of radioactivity in liquid effluents, the exposure pathways considered are human consumption of water and fish.

When determining total doses, as required by 10CFR20 and 40CFRI90, the BWR stations also consider direct radiation due to skyshine from nitrogen-16 (N'6) in turbines and associated piping. Ail nuclear glodcm/generic/ev2-01 15

Revision 2.0 April 1999 power stations will consider exposure to radiation emanating from onsite radwaste storage facilities when they are put Into operation.

4.1.3 Categories of Radioactivity Radionuclide content of effluent releases from nuclear power stations can be categorized according to

  • the characteristics of the radionuclides. Inevaluating doses associated with a particular pathway, only those categories of radionuclides that significantly contribute to the dose need to be included in the dose
  • calculations (See Section 3.0). The categories of radionuclides considered by the ComEd nuclear power stations for each of the airborne pathways are summarized in Table 4-1. Selection of the significant airborne pathways was based on the following:
  • The requirements in the RETS (see discussion In Appendix A)
  • Applicable regulatory guidance (References 6 and 14), and
  • A study of the potential radiological implications of nuclear facilities in the upper Mississippi River basin (Reference 20).

Calculations were used to determine which radionuclides were significant for a particular pathway. For example, in the case of direct radiation from a plume of airborne radioactivity, it was found that radiation from noble gases is significant and radiation from radioactive iodine was not. The 'dose rate per unit of airborne radioactivity concentration is about the same for noble gases and radioactive iodine since they emit comparable types and energies of radiation. However, the quantity of noble gas radioactivity (Ci) released in routine nuclear plant operation typically exceeds the quantity of radioactive iodine by a factor of about 10,000.

As another example, consider the inhalation pathway. Here, the calculations showed that the dose commitment due to radioactive iodine was significant but the dose commitment due to radioactive noble gases was not significant and can be excluded from the compliance calculations for the inhalation pathway. This is true despite the fact that a much larger quantity of noble gas radioactivity is released.

The reason for this is that the solubility of noble gas in body tissue is very low, where-as the inhaled radioactive iodine does concentrate in specific body organs such as the thyroid (see the discussion on Pages 228 and 231 to 234 of Reference 38).

4.1.4 Release Point Classifications In the determination of the dose consequence from an airborne release of radioactivity, it Is required to know the height of the release of the effluent plume relative to the ground and where the dose recipients are located. This correlation is very important because the radiation dose calculated isgreatly impacted by the distance separating the dose recipient and the radioactive plume.

It has been found that the height an effluent plume maintains as it travels above the ground is related to the elevation of the release point and to the height of structures immediately adjacent as follows:

  • If the elevation of the release point is sufficiently above the height of any adjacent structures, the plume will remain elevated for considerable distances.
  • If the elevation of the release point is at or below the heights of adjacent structures, the plume is likely to be caught in the turbulence of the wakes created by wind passing over the buildings. The plume elevation would then drop to ground level.
  • If the elevation of the release point is not significantly above the heights of adjacent structures, then the plume may be elevated or at ground level.

For the calculations of this manual, each established release point has been designated as belonging to one of three release point classifications:

gi/odcrVgeneric/rev2-0I 1 16

Revision 2.0 April 1999

  • Stack (or Elevated) Release Points (denoted by the letter S or subscript s)

These are release points approximately twice the height of adjacent solid structures.

Releases are treated as elevated'releases unaffected by thd presence of the adjacent structures.

  • Ground Level Release Points (denoted by the letter G or subscript g)

These are release points at ground level or lower than adjacent solid structures.

Releases are considered drawn into the downwind wake of these structures and are treated as ground level releases.

-* Vent (or Mixed Mode) Release Points (denoted by the letter V or subscript v)

These are release points as high or higher than adjacent solid structures but lower than twice the structure's heights. These releases are treated as a mixture of elevated and ground level releases. The proportion of the release attributed to either elevated or ground level in a vent release is determined by the ratio of stack exit velocity to the wind speed (see Section'8.1.2.4 of Appendix B).

The definitions of these classifications are based on Regulatory Guide 1.111 (Reference 7). A list of the classifications of specific airborne release points for each of the ComEd nuclear power stations is contained in Table A-2 in Appendix A.

4.1.5 Historical Average Atmospheric Conditions The dispersion characteristics of airborne effluents from a nuclear power station are dependent on weather conditions. Meteorological factors that directly affect the concentration of airborne radioactivity in a plume include the following:

  • Wind Direction The concentration of radioactivity is highest in the direction toward which the wind Is blowing.
  • Wind Speed Greater wind speeds produce more dispersion and consequently lower concentrations of radioactivity:
  • Atmospheric Turbulence The greater the atmospheric turbulence, the more a plume spreads both vertically and horizontally. For calculations in.this manual, the degree of turbulence is classified by use of seven atmospheric stability classes, designated A (extremely unstable) through G (extremely stable). The seven classes and some of their characteristics are listed In Table C-4 of Appendix C.

Meteorological conditions strongly impact the values of various parameters applied in the dose calculations of this manual. These include:

  • The Relative Concentration Factor X/Q (Section 4.1.6)
  • The Relative Deposition Factor DIQ (Section 4.1.7) g:/odcf/generic/mv2/7 .17

Revision 2.0 April 1999~

  • The Gamma Air Dose Factor (Section 4.2.1)
  • The Whole Body Dose Factor (Section 4.2.3)

Some bases sections of both the Standard Radiological Effluent Technical Specifications (guidance document) and the RETS specify that dose calculations be based on "historical average atmospheric conditions".. Therefore, this manual provides values for the above parameters that are based on station-specific historical average meteorological conditions. These values were obtained by averaging hourly values of the parameters over-a long-term, several-year, period of record. The averaging period was based on calendar years in order to avoid any bias from weather conditions associated with any one season. The period of record Is identified in each of the tables providing the values (see Appendix F).

4.1.6 Relative Concentration Factor XIQ A person immersed Ina plume of airborne radioactivity Is exposed to radiation from the plume and may also inhale some of the radioactivity from the plume. The concentration of radioactivity In air near the exposed person must be calculated to adequately evaluate doses resulting from any inhalation. The relative concentration factor X/Q (referred to as "chi over Q") is used to simplify these calculations. X/Q is the concentration of radioactivity in air, at a specified location, divided by the radioactivity release rate.

X/Q has the following units:.

Units of XIQ = (jClUm3 ) I (1iCi/sec) = seclm Station-specific values of X/Q are provided for each nuclear power station in Table F-5 of Appendix F.

These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5).

For each of the release point classifications (eg. stack, vent and ground level) and for the 16 compass-direction sectors (N, NNE, etc.), Table F-5 provides the maximum value of XIQ for locations at or beyond the unrestricted area boundary.

The value of XIQ for each sector reflects the fraction of time that the wind blew into that sector and the distribution of wind speeds and atmospheric stability classes during that time. Note that the value would be zero ifthe wind never blew Into the sector.

The methodology for determining X/Q is discussed In detail in Section B.3 of Appendix B.

4.1.7 Relative Deposition Factor DIQ As a plume travels away from its release point, portions of the plume may touch the ground and deposit radioactivity on the ground and/or on vegetation. Occurrences of such deposition are important to model since any radioactivity deposited on the ground or on vegetation may directly expose people and/or may be absorbed into food products which can ultimately be ingested by people. The relative deposition factor is used to simplify the dose calculations for these pathways.

The relative deposition factor DIQ is the rate of deposition of radioactivity on the ground divided by the radioactivity release rate. Its value was determined for specific conditions. Inthis manual it has the following units:

Units of DIQ [(pCllsec)/m 2j I (pClsec) =rn2 The values of DIQ are affected by the same parameters that affect the values of X/Q: release characteristics; meteorological conditions and location (see Section 4.1.6). Station-specific values of D/Q are provided for each ComEd nuclear power station in Appendix F Tables F-5 and F-6. These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5).

gJddcrn/geneddcrev2-0/ 1 18

Revision 2.0 April 1999 For each release point classification and for each of the.16 compass-direction sectors (N, NNE, etc.),

Table F-5 provides the maximum value of D/Q for locations at or beyond the unrestricted area boundary.

InTable F-6, values of D/Q are given for the locations of the nearest milk and meat producers within 5 miles of the nuclear power station. The methodology for determining D/Q is discussed in Section B.4 of Appendix B.

4.1.8 Dose Factors Various dose factors are used in this manual to simplify the calculation of radiation doses. These factors are listed in Table 4-2. Definitions of these factors are given in the remainder of this chapter. Methods of determining their values are addressed in Appendix B.

4.2 AIRBORNE RELEASES 4.2.1 Gamma Air Dose The term 'gamma air dose' refers to the component of dose absorbed by air resulting from the absorption of energy from photons emitted during nuclear and atomic transformations, including gamma rays, x-rays, annihilation radiation, and Bremsstrahlung radiation (see footnote on page 1.109-19 of Regulatory Guide 1.109).

The Gamma Air Dose Factor The gamma air dose factor is the gamma air dose rate divided by the radioactivity release rate. The value of the gamma air dose factor is determined by calculating the gamma dose rate to air (at a specific location and corresponding to a given release rate) and dividing that dose rate by the corresponding release rate:

Gamma Air Dose Factor = [(mradlyr)I(pCllsec)]

The methodology for this calculation is discussed In Section B.5 of Appendix B. The calculation is complex because the dose rate at any given point is affected by the radioactivity-concentration and distance. The value of the gamma air dose factor is also affected by all of the parameters that affect X/Q: release characteristics, meteorological conditions and location (see Section 4.1.6). Additionally, the value is affected by radiological parameters: the distribution of energies and intensities for gamma emissions from each specific radionuclide and the photon attenuation characteristics of air.

Inthe ODCM, station-specific values of gamma dose factors are provided for each station in Appendix F, Table F-7. These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5).

For the release point classification and for each of the 16 compass-direction sectors, Table F-7 provides the maximum value of the gamma air dose factor for noble gas radionuclides at the unrestricted area boundary. The value indludes a correction for radioactive decay during transport of the radionuclide from the release point to the dose calculation location.

4.2.2 Beta Air Dose The term 'beta air dose' refers to the component of dose to air dose resulting from the absorption of energy from emissions of beta particles, mono-energetic electrons and positrons during nuclear and atomic transformations (see the footnote on Page 1.109-20 of Regulatory Guide 1.109).

g:/odcmlgeneridrev2-01 19:

- Revision 2.0 April 1999 The Beta Air Dose Factor The beta'air dose factor is the beta air dose rate divided by the concentration of radioactivity In air at the dose calculation location. Values of the beta air dose factor are different for each radionuclide because of the differences in electron-emission spectra. Values for the beta air dose factors of.15 noble gas radionuclides are provided in Appendix C Table C-9.

The values of beta air dose factors are independent of nuclear power station because the size'of a plume, at or beyond the restricted area boundary, Is large compared to the range of the beta particle radiation. Therefore, the radioactivity concentration can be assumed to be constant over .the entire' volume surrounding a given beta dose calculation point One can then define the beta air dose factor as

  • the beta dose rate per unit of air radioactivity concentration. This relationship is independent of.

station-specific parameters. In contrast to this, the gamma air dose may depend on radioactivity concentration hundreds of feet away from the dose calculation point (see Section 4.2.1). Therefore, when determining the value of the gamma air dose factor, the shape of the plume over a large region.

must be considered. Plume shape does depend on station-specific parameters such as'meteorology and release point classification and therefore values of the gamma air dose factor are station-specific.

4.2.3 Whole Body Dose and Dose Rate Whole Body Dose Equation A-6 of Appendix A is used to calculate dose to the whole body from noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents. The deep dose equivalent (DDE) (or whole body dose) equation is similar to that used to calculate gamma air dose (Equation A-1 of Appendix A).

Whole Body Dose Rate Equation A-8 of Appendix A is used to calculate dose rate to the whole body. The assumptions used for this equation are the same as those used in the calculation of whole body dose (Equation A-6 of Appendix A) except that any shielding benefit (dose attenuation) provided by residential structures is not applied. Since the calculation is for the maximum Instantaneous dose rate, the dose recipient may be out of doors when exposed and would not be shielded from the exposure by any structural material.

The Whole Body Dose Factor The whole body dose factor Is the whole body dose rate divided by the radioactive release rate. Values for the whole body dose factor depend on the same parameters as those that affect the gamma air dose factor (see Section 4.2.1). The whole body dose factor is a 10CFR50 term that yields a Deep Dose Equivalent when applied to the radioactive release rate.

Station-specific values for the whole body dose factor are provided for each ComEd nuclear power station in Appendix F, Table F-7. These values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5). For each of 15 noble gas radionuclides, for the release point classifications, and for each of the 16 compass-direction sectors, Table F-7 provides the maximum value of the whole body dose factor at the unrestricted area boundary. These values include a correction for radioactive decay during transport of the radionuclide from the release point to the dose calculation location.

The methodology for determining whole body dose factors is addressed in Section B.6 of Appendix B.

glodcm/generictrev2-0l 20

Revision 2.0 April 1999 4.2.4 Skin Dose and Dose Rate Skin Dose Equation A-7 of Appendix A Is used to calculate dose to skin from noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents. The skin dose is also referred to as the 'shallow dose equivalent' (SDE). The SDE is the summation of dose to the skin from beta and gamma radiation.

The equation for beta dose to skin is similar to that used to calculate beta dose to air (Equation A-2 of Appendix A) except that beta skin dose factors are used Instead of beta air dose factors. The beta skin dose factor differs from the beta air dose factor by accounting for the attenuation of beta radiation by the

  • dead layer of skin. The dead layer of skin is not susceptible to radiation damage and therefore is not of concern. The beta dose to the skin from non-noble gases is insignificant and is not calculated for the reason described in Section 4.1.3. When calculating the beta contribution to skin dose, no reduction is included in the calculations due to shielding provided by occupancy of residential structures.

The equation for gamma dose to skin is similar to that used to calculate gamma dose to air except for the following:

  • Equation A-7 of Appendix A includes a units conversion factor 1.11 rem/rad to convert from units of gamma air dose (rad) to units of tissue dose equivalent (rem).
  • Equation A-7 of Appendix A Includes a dimensionless factor of 0.7 to account for the shielding due to occupancy of residential structures.

Equation A-7 of Appendix A uses gamma air dose factors not gamma whole body dose factors. When calculating gamma dose to skin, no reduction Is applied for the attenuation of radiation due to passage through body tissue (dead layer of skin).

Skin Dose Rate Equation A-9 of Appendix Ais used to calculate dose rate to skin. The assumptions are the same as those used in the calculation of skin dose (Equation A-7 of Appendix A) except that no credit is taken for shielding of gamma radiation by residential structures. The dose recipient may be outdoors when exposed and the maximum instantaneous dose rate is of concern.

The Skin Dose Factor As with the beta air dose factor, values of the beta skin dose factors are different for different radionuclides but do not vary from station to station. Values of the beta air dose factors and skin dose factors are provided in Table C-9 of Appendix C for .15 noble gas radionuclides.

4.2.5 Ground Radiation Equations A-14 through A-16 of Appendix A are used to calculate the deep dose equivalent (whole' body.

dose) due to non-noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents and deposited on the ground.

Comment Note that if there is no release of radionuclide 'i during a given time period, then the deposition rate is zero, the ground plane concentration is zero and the resulting dose due to ground deposition is zero. If there is a release of radionuclide i', the ground concentration is computed as if that release had been occurring at a constant rate for the ground deposition time period.

gJodcn/generic/rev2-W2 21

Revision 2.0 April 1999 The Ground Plane Dose Conversion Factor The ground plane dose conversion factor is the dose rate to the whole body per unit of radioactivity concentration on the ground. Values of the ground plane dose conversion factor that are calculated by assuming constant concentration over an infinite plane are provided for various radionuclides in Table C-10 of Appendix C. The values are the same for all stations. The station-specific aspects of the calculation of ground dose concern the determination of the radioactivity concentration on the ground.

4.2.6 Inhalation Dose Commitment Radioactivity from airborne releases of radioactive iodine, particulate, tritium, and carbon-14 can enter the body through inhalation. Equation A-17 of Appendix A is used to calculate dose commitment to the whole body or its organs due to inhalation of non-noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents.

This dose component is also referred to as the 'committed dose equivalent' (CDE).

The Inhalation Dose Commitment Factor Values for the inhalation dose commitment factor are the same for all ComEd stations. The components of this factor are not impacted by station specific parameters. However, the dose commitment factors used for compliance with I OCFR20 and IOCFR50 Appendix I are different as noted below:

  • Values of the inhalation dose commitment factor used in the IOCFR50, Appendix I assessment are exactly those listed in Reg. Guide .1.109 (Reference 6) Tables E-7, 8, 9 and
10. These tables include data for four age groups (adult, teenager, child and infant) and seven body organs.
  • Values of the inhalation dose commitment factor used for determining 10CFR20 and 40CFRI90 compliance are exactly those listed in Table 2.1 of Federal Guidance Report No.

11 (FGR-1 1)(Reference 93). These data are for an adult and are given for all significant organs.

Dose Commitment Rate The inhalation dose commitment rate is the rate at which dose commitment is accrued by an individual breathing contaminated air. Equation A-28 of Appendix A is used to calculate dose commitment rate to an organ due to inhalation of non-noble gas radionuclides. The assumptions are the same as used in the calculation of inhalation dose commitment (Equation A-17 of Appendix A).

4.2.7 Ingestion Airborne releases of radioactive Iodine, particulate, tritium, and carbon-14 can enter the food chain, through deposition on, or absorption by, vegetation.. The radioactivity can be ingested by humans who consume the vegetation or who consume products (e.g., milk or meat) of animals who have fed on the contaminated vegetation. Each ComEd nuclear power station considers the following four ingestion pathways:

  • Leafy vegetables,
  • Produce (e.g. non-leafy vegetables, fruit, and grain),
  • Milk, and
  • Meat.

Equation A-18 of Appenadix A is used to calculate the dose commitment due to ingestion of food containing non-noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents.

g:lodcm/genericlrev2-02 22

Revision 2.0 April 1999 Values of the ingestion dose commitment factor are the same for each ComEd nuclear power station.

The components of this factor are not impacted by station specific parameters. The station-specific aspects of the calculation of ingestion dose only concern the quantity of radioactivity ingested. However, the ingestion dose commitment factors used for IOCFR20 and for IOCFR50 compliance are different as was.noted previously in section 4.2.6. These differences are noted below:

  • Values of the ingestion dose commitment factor used in the I OCFR50 Appendix I assessment are exactly those listed In Reg. Guide 1.109 Tables E-11, 12, 13 and 14.

These tables include data for four age groups and seven organs.

  • Values of the ingestion dose commitment factor used in the 10CFR20 assessment are exactly those listed in Table 2.2 of Federal Guidance Report No. 11 (Reference 93). These tables include data for an adult and are given for all organs.

The Ingested activity Is calculated by use of equations A-19 through A-22 of Appendix A.The food product radioactivity concentration is calculated from measurements of radioactivity Instation releases.

The different equations used for radioactivity concentration in vegetation, milk, and meat are also discussed in Appendix A 4.3 LIQUID RELEASES The evaluation of dose and dose rate due to releases of radioactivity in liquid effluents is required to confirm compliance with the provisions of RETS related to IOCFR50 Appendix I.: ODCM Section 3.2 and Figure 3-1 list some of the pathways by which radioactivity in liquid effluents can impact man. The principal pathways used by CoinEd to calculate dose from liquid effluents are ingestion by drinking water and by eating fish from the body of water receiving station liquid discharges. The nuclear power stations obtain the dose commitment due to radioactivity In liquid effluent releases by summing the dose commitments from both the drinking water and fish pathways.

Equations A-29, A-30 and A-31 of Appendix A are used to calculate committed dose equivalent (CDE) for the member of the public due to consumption of drinking water and fish.

The radioactivity concentration in water is obtained by dividing the quantity of radioactivity released by the volume of water in which the release is diluted (e.g., the flow is multiplied by the total time of the release in hours). The result is multiplied by the following:

  • A factor to represent any additional dilution that might occur.
  • Afactor to account for radioactive decay from the time of release to the time of consumption.

The radioactivity concentration in fish is the product of the radioactivity concentration in water and a bio-accumulation factor. The dilution and radioactive decay factors for fish may be different from those for water. (The fish may be caught at a location different from where drinking water is drawn and the time period from the release of radioactivity to consumption may be different.)

The bio-accumulation factor accounts for the fact that the quantity of radioactivity in fish can build up with time to a higher value relative to the concentration of the radioactivity in the water they consume. The bio-accumulation factor is the equilibrium ratio of the concentration of radionuclide 'i' in fish to its concentration in water. The same values are used for the bio-accumulation factor at each station. These values are provided in Appendix C, Table C-8.

glodcnmgenericrev2-21 23

Revision 2.0 April 1999 4A CONTAINED SOURCES OF RADIOACTIVITY In addition to the whole body, skin and single organ dose assessments previously described, an additional assessment is required. The additional assessment addresses radiation dose due to radioactivity contained within the nuclear power station and its structures.

There are presently two types of contained sources of radioactivity which are of concern in offsite radiological dose assessments. The first Is that due to gamma rays resulting from nitrogen-16 carry-over to the turbine in BWR steam (skyshine). The second is that due to gamma rays associated with radioactive material contained in onsite radwaste and rad material storage facilities.

4.4.1 BWR Skyshine The most significant dose component to members of the public produced by "contained sources" is nitrogen-16 (N-16) within the turbine building of BWRs. Although primary side shielding is around the turbine and its piping, N-16 gamma rays scattered by air molecules in the overhead air space above the turbine and piping cause a measurable "skyshine" radiation dose in the local power plant environs.

Equation A-34 of Appendix A is used to evaluate skyshine dose. A complicating factor in the calculation is the practice at some stations of adding hydrogen to reactor coolant to improve coolant chemistry. The addition of hydrogen can increase the dose rate due to skyshine up to a factor of 10 times expected levels depending on injection rates and power levels (Reference 39). Increasing the hydrogen injection rate will increase the dose rates even further. (See Reference 102) The skyshine dose determined by Equation A-34 of Appendix A depends on the following factors:

  • The distance of the dose recipient location from the turbine.
  • The number-of hours per year that the location is occupied by a dose recipient.
  • The total energy jMWe-hr] generated by the nuclear power station with hydrogen addition.
  • The total energy (MWe-hr] generated by the nuclear power station without hydrogen addition.

4.4.2 Onsite Radwaste and Rad Material Storage Facilities Low level radioactive waste may be stored at any ComEd nuclear power station in the following types of storage facilities:

  • Process Waste Storape Facilities
  • Interim Radwaste Storage Facility (IRSF) structure
  • Concrete vaults containing 48 radwaste liners (Also referred to as "48-pack";)
  • DAW Storage Facilities
  • Dry Active Waste (DAW) facilities (may include Butler buildings/warehouses)
  • Replaced Steam Generator Storage Facilities In addition, Rad Material may be stored Infacilities on site:
  • Rad Material Storage Facilities
  • Contaminated tools and equipment In seavans and/or warehouses Administrative controls are implemented by each station to ensure compliance to applicable regulations.

The impact to the offsite dose will be evaluated on a case by case basis and added to the station annex of the ODCM when applicable.. In addition, a IOCFR50.59 analysis may be required for radwaste storage facilities.

gl/odcrnlgenerdcrev2-WI2 24

Revision 2.0 April 1999 4.5 TOTAL DOSE REQUIREMENTS 4.5.1 Total Effective Dose Equivalent Llmits; IOCFR20 and 40CFRI90 10CFR20 requires compliance to dose limits expressed as "Total Effective Dose Equivalent" (TEDE).

The TEDE is the sum total of the external dose and the sum of the weighted internal doses. (See Appendix A; Sections A.4.3 and A.5.1) 4.5.2 Total Dose For Uranium Fuel Cycle The nuclear power stations are required to determine the total dose to a member of the public due to all uranium fuel cycle sources in order to assess compliance with 40CFR190 as part of demonstrating compliance with I OCFR20.

The total dose for the uranium fuel cycle is the sum of doses due to radioactivity in airborne and liquid effluents and the doses due to direct radiation from contained sources at the nuclear power station.

When evaluation of total dose is required for a station, the following contributions are summed:

  • Doses due to airborne and liquid effluents from the station.
  • Doses due to liquid effluents from nuclear power stations upstream.
  • Doses due to nitrogen-16 (N'6) skyshine, if the station is a boiling water reactor.
  • Doses due to any onsite radioactive waste storage facilities; if applicable.

Section A.5.2 of Appendix A discusses the details of evaluations.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 CHAPTER 5 MEASUREMENT

5.0 INTRODUCTION

Each nuclear station has three measurement programs associated with offsite dose assessment

  • Measurement of releases of radioactivity from the station.
  • Measurement of meteorology at the station site.
  • Measurement of levels of radiation and radioactivity in the environs surrounding the station.

5.1 EFFLUENT AND PROCESS MONITORING Radioactivity in liquid and gaseous effluents is measured in order to provide data for calculating radiation doses and radioactivity concentrations in the environment of each nuclear power station. Measurement of effluent radioactivity is required by 10CFR20.1302 and IOCFR50. The RETS of each nuclear power station provide detailed requirements for instrumentation, sampling and analysis. Relevant Regulatory Guides are 1.21 (Reference 4) and 4.15 (Reference 13). Chapter 10 of the ODCM includes brief descriptions of effluent monitoring instruments at each nuclear power station. The RETS of each nuclear power station require submission to the NRC of reports of effluent radioactivity releases and environmental measurements.

5.2 METEOROLOGICAL MONITORING Meteorological parameters are measured in the vicinity of each nuclear power station in order to provide data for calculating radiation doses due to airborne effluent radioactivity. Some nuclear power station's Technical Specifications state applicable requirements (typically under the subheading, Meteorological Instrumentation," in the instrumentation section). Regulatory guidance is given in Regulatory Guide 1.23 (Reference 5). Wind speed, wind direction and the temperature gradient are measured using instruments at two or more elevations on a meteorological tower at each ComEd station. The elevations are chosen to provide meteorological data representative of the elevations of the airborne releases from the station. The Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report includes a summary of meteorological data collected over the reporting year. These data are used to calculate optional isopleths of radiation dose and radioactivity concentration.

5.3 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM (REMP)

Each nuclear power station has a REMP that provides representative measurements of radiation and radioactive material in the environment The program provides verification that measurable radiological impacts from the power station on the environment are within expectations derived from effluent measurements and calculations. The REMP is required by 10CFR50 (see Appendix I, Sections IV.B.2 and IV.B.3). General requirements of the program are prescribed in each station's RETS and more precise details (such as specific monitoring locations) are specified in ODCM Chapter 11.

5.3.1 Interlaboratory Comparison Program The laboratory which performs the REMP analyses is required by the RETS to participate in an interlaboratory comparison program. The purpose is to provide an independent check on the laboratory's analytical procedures and to alert it to potential problems (e.g. accuracy). In order to assess the measurements of radioactivity in environmental media, an independent agency supplies participating laboratories with samples of environmental media containing unspecified amounts of radioactivity. The laboratories measure the radioactivity concentrations and report the results to the agency. At a later time, the agency informs the participating laboratories of the actual concentrations and associated g:1odcrnlgenefic/rev2-02 29

Revision 2.0 April 1999 uncertainties. Any significant discrepancies are investigated by the participating laboratories. A similar process is used to assess measurements of environmental radiation by passive thermoluminescent dosimeters.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 CHAPTER 6 IMPLEMENTATION OF OFFSITE DOSE ASSESSMENT PROGRAM 6.1 NUCLEAR POWER STATION The nuclear power station staff is responsible for effluent monitoring. The staff determines effluent radioactivity concentration and flow rate. This data is used to determine the radioactivity release information required for the Radioactive Effluent Release Report and to perform monthly calculations and projections of offsite radiation dose.

The nuclear power station staff is also responsible for control of effluent radioactivity. Procedures are implemented for determining, calculating and implementing setpoints. Liquid and gaseous radwaste treatment systems and ventilation exhaust treatment systems are utilized when appropriate. The nuclear power station staff implements the Process Control Program (PCP) for solid radwaste and measures tank radioactivity and BWR off-gas radioactivity.

The nuclear power station staff maintains instrumentation associated with these activities and demonstrates operability of the instrumentation in accordance with the surveillance requirements of the RETS. In the event that any RETS requirements are violated, the nuclear power station staff is responsible for taking one of the actions allowed by the RETS and issuing any required reports to the NRC.

The nuclear power station staff assembles and distributes the Radioactive Effluent Release Report.

The nuclear power station staff and/or the Generation Support Radiation Protection Department (GSRPD) reviews the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report prepared by the REMP contractor. The nuclear power station staff distributes the report to the NRC.

6.2 METEOROLOGICAL CONTRACTOR The meteorological contractor operates and maintains the meteorological tower instrumentation at each nuclear power station. The contractor collects and analyzes the data and issues periodic reports. The contractor prepares the meteorological data summary required for the Annual Radiological.

Environmental Operating Report (AREOR) and also computes and plots isopleths included in the AREOR.

6.3 REMP CONTRACTOR The radiological environmental contractor collects environmental samples and performs radiological analyses as specified inrthe nuclear power station's REMP (see ODCM Chapters 11 and 12);. The contractor issues reports of results to GSRPD and each nuclear station. The contractor participates In an interlaboratory comparison program and reports results in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report. The contractor performs the annual land use census and assembles the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

6.4 CORPORATE DEPARTMENTS The Generation Support Radiation Protection Department (GSRPD) administers the offsite dose assessment computer program. The department maintains the generic section of the ODCM. The department oversees the meteorological and REMP contractors through administration of the purchase.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 APPENDIX A COMPLIANCE METHODOLOGY A.0 INTRODUCTION This appendix reviews the offsite radiological limits applicable to the nuclear power stations and presents in detail the equations and procedures used to assess compliance with these limits. An introduction to the calculational approach used here is given in Chapter 4. The approach incorporates simplifications such as the following:

  • Use of pre-calculated atmospheric transport parameters based on historical average atmospheric conditions (see Section 4.1.5). These factors, X/Q and D/Q, are defined in Chapter 4.
  • Use of pre-calculated dose factors based on historical average atmospheric conditions. For example, a dose factor with units (mradlyr) per (iCi/sec) is used to obtain gamma dose rate in
  • mrad/yr from noble gas release rate in pCi/sec.

Values of these parameters are obtained as described in Appendix B.

The equations and parameters of this appendix are for use in calculating offsite radiation doses during routine operating conditions. They are not for use in calculating doses due to non-routine releases (e.g., accident releases).

The applicable radiation protection regulations Included in IOCFR20, 10CFR50 Appendix 1,and 40CFR190 each require a different type of radiological dose assessment. In some cases, e.g. ingestion and inhalation pathways, the calculations used to demonstrate compliance may be similar, but the reference dose conversion factors differ because of historical regulatory evolution. This section of the ODCM develops, in detail, the evaluation used to determine the individual components of the total dose, and then indicates which are reportable and in some cases combined to demonstrate regulatory compliance.

An overview of the required compliance is given in Tables 2-1, 2-2, and 2-3. In Table 2-1, the dose components are itemized and referenced, and an indication of their regulatory application is noted. A more detailed compliance matrix is given in Table 2-3. Additionally, the locations of dose receivers for each dose component are given in Table 2-2.

The following sections detail the required radiological dose calculations.

A.1 AIRBORNE RELEASES A.1.1 Release Point Classifications The pattern of dispersion of airborne releases is dependent on the height of the release point relative to adjacent structures. For the equations of this appendix, each release point is classified as one of the following three height-dependent types, which are defined InSection 4.1.4:

  • Stack (or Elevated) Release Point (denoted by the letter S or subscript s)
  • Ground Level Release Point (denoted by the letter G or subscript g)
  • Vent (or Mixed Mode) Release Point (denoted by the letter V or subscript v)

The release point classifications of routine release points at the nuclear power stations are stated in Table A-2.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 A.1.2 Dose Due to Noble Gas Radionuclides A.1.2.1 Gamma Air Dose Requirerment RETS limit the gamma air dose due to noble gas effluents released from each reactor unit to areas at and beyond the unrestricted area boundary to the following:

  • Less than or equal to 5 mrad per calendar quarter.
  • Less than or equal to 10 mrad per calendar year.

Equation The gamma air dose due to noble gases released in gaseous effluents is calculated by the following expression:

DT = (3.17E-8)E{ SIAi, + VIAL,+ GAIg (A-I)

The summation is over noble gas radionuclides i.

Application RETS require the dose rate due to noble gases in gaseous effluents be determined to be within the above limit in accordance with methodology specified in the ODCM (see Section 12.4 of each station's RETS and Technical Specifications).

To comply with this specification, each station uses an effluent radiation monitor setpoint corresponding to an offsite whole body dose rate at or below the limit (see Chapter 10). In addition, each station assesses compliance by calculating offsite whole body dose rate on the basis of periodic samples obtained in accordance with station procedures.

Application RETS require the dose rate due to noble gases In gaseous effluents to be determined to be within the above limit in accordance with methodology specified in the ODCM. (See Section 12.4 of each station's RETS and Technical Specifications.

To comply with this specification, each station uses an effluent radiation monitor setpoint corresponding to an offsite skin dose rate at or below the limit (see Chapter 10). In addition, each station assesses compliance by calculating offsite skin dose rate on the basis of samples obtained periodically in accordance with station procedures.

A.1.4 Dose Due to Non-Noble Gas Radionuclides Requirement RETS provide the following limits, based on I OCFR50 Appendix I, on the dose to a member of the public from specified non-noble gas radionuclides in gaseous effluents released from each reactor unit to areas at and beyond the unrestricted area boundary:

. Less than or equal to 7.5 mrem to any organ during any calendar quarter.

  • Less than or equal to 15 mrem to any organ during any calendar year.

The individual dose components are also required as part of the 40CFR190 assessments and combined as part of the 10CFR20 assessment (See Section A.4). The deep dose due to radionuclides deposited on the ground is considered to be a component of the deep dose equivalent for 10CFR20 and 40CFRI90 compliance and an organ (whole body) dose component for 10CFR5O Appendix I compliance.

Note that as a result of historical regulation evolution, committed dose equivalent (CDE) assessments for 10CFR20 and 40CFR190 compliance are made for an adult using Federal Guidance Report No. 11 (Reference

93) dose conversion factors; assessments for 1 CFR50 Appendix I compliance are made for 4 age groups (adultlteenager/childfinfant) using Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6) dose conversion factors.

g.Iodcm/generic/AttAr2-0/ A-7

Revision 2.0 April 1999 Equation The committed dose equivalent (CDE) is calculated for releases in the time period under consideration.

Specifically, the CDE is calculated as the sum of two contributions:

DNNG¢. = Dww + Dfad (A-13)

CDE due to ingestion via food pathways (leafy vegetables, produce, milk, and meat) of non-noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents. See Equation A-18 in Section A.1.4.3.

Application RETS require cumulative and projected dose contributions for the current calendar quarter and the current calendar year for the specified non-noble gas radionuclides in airborne effluents to be determined at least once per 31 days (see Section 12.4 of each station's RETS and Technical Specifications).

To comply with this specification, each nuclear power station obtains and analyzes samples in accordance with the radioactive gaseous waste or gaseous effluent sampling and analysis program in its RETS. For each organ of each age group considered (adultiteenager/childfinfant), the dose for each pathway is calculated in every sector (except for sectors over water bodies). The calculation is based on the location assumptions discussed below in conjunction with the pathway equations. For each organ of each age group, the doses are summed in each sector over all pathways. The result for the sector with the highest total dose is compared to the limit.

For a release attributable to a processing or effluent system shared by more than one reactor, the dose due to an individual unit is obtained by proportioning the effluents among the units sharing the system. The allocation procedure is specified in ODCM Chapter 10.

The CDE evaluated for an adult isalso included as part of the 10CFR20 and 40CFR1 90 assessment (See Section AA4).

The nuclear power stations are required to project doses due to gaseous releases from the site at least once per 31 days.

Each station calculates doses for all members of the public (adult, teenager, child and infant) and then determines the maximum dose. The member of the public who receives the maximum dose will be reported.

Equation Offsite doses due to projected releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents are calculated using Equations A-1, A-2 and A-13. Projected cumulative radionuclide releases are used in place of measured cumulative releases A, A,. and A 0.

giodcm/generic/AttAr2-0/ A-16

Revision 2.0 April 1999 Application For a release attributable to a processing or effluent system shared by more than one reactor unit, the dose due to an individual unit is obtained by proportioning the effluents among the units s~aring the system. The allocation procedure is specified in Chapter 10 of this manual.

A.2 LIQUID RELEASES A.2.1 Dose Requirement The design objectives of IOCFR50, Appendix I and RETS provide the following limits on the dose or dose commitment to a member of the public from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released from each reactor unit to restricted area boundaries:

  • During any calendar quarter, less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the total body and less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ.
  • During any calendar year, less than or equal to 3 mrem to the total body and less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ.

The organ doses due to radioactivity in liquid effluents are also used as part of the 40CFRI90 compliance and are included in the combination of doses to determine the Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) used to demonstrate 10CFR20 compliance. (See Section A.4)

As noted earlier, dose assessments for 10CFR20 and 40CFRI90 compliance are made for an adult using Federal Guidance Report No. 11 (Reference 93) dose conversion factors. Dose assessments for 10CFR50 Appendix I compliance are made for four age groups (adultlteenager/childlinfant) using Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6) dose conversion factors.

Equation The dose commitment from radioactive materials in liquid effluents is calculated for the four age groups considering only the two principal pathways for radiation exposure. The dose commitment to each organ (and to the total body) is obtained as the sum of contributions from consumption of drinking water and fish:

Du). = Dwtrj, + Dtehis (A-29)

Application RETS require determination of cumulative and projected dose contributions from liquid effluents for the current calendar quarter and the current calendar year at least once per 31 days. (see Section 12.3 of each station's RETS and/or Technical Specifications).

For a release attributable to a processing or effluent system shared by more than one reactor unit, the dose due to

  • an individual unit is obtained by proportioning the effluents among the units sharing the system. The allocation procedure is specified in ODCM Chapter 10.

A.2.2 Liquid Effluent Concentrations Requirement Requirement One method of demonstrating compliance to the requirements of 10CFR20.1301 is to demonstrate that the annual average concentrations of radioactive material released in gaseous and liquid effluents do not exceed the values specified in 10CFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2. (See 10CFR 20.1302(b)(2).) However, as noted in Section A.5.1, this mode of IOCFR20.1301 compliance has not been elected.

As a means of assuring that annual concentration limits will not be exceeded, and as a matter of policy assuring that doses by the liquid pathway will be ALARA; RETS provides the following restriction:

"The concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to unrestricted areas shall be limited to ten times the concentration values in Appendix B1-Table 2, Column 2 to 10CFR20.1001-20.2402."

This also meets the requirement of Station Technical Specifications and RETS.

Equation According to the footnotes to 10CFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2, if a radionuclide mix of known composition is released, the concentrations must be such that Z{C/ 10 ECLJ < I (A32) where the summation is over index i (radionuclides).

This concentration is specified in 10CFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2. Concentrations for noble gases are different and are specified in the stations' Technical SpecificationsIRETS.

10 Multiplier to meet the requirements of Technical Specifications (if approved).

If either the identity or concentration of any radionuclide in the mixture is not known, special rules apply. These are given in the footnotes in 10CFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2.

Application The RETS and Technical Specifications require a specified sampling and analysis program to assure that liquid radioactivity concentrations at the point of release are maintained within the required limits.

To comply with this provision, each nuclear power station obtains and analyzes samples In accordance with the radioactive liquid waste (or effluent) sampling and analysis program in its RETS. Radioactivity concentrations in tank effluents are determined in accordance with Equation A-33 in the next section. Comparison with the Effluent Concentration Limit is made using Equation A-32.

A.2.3 Tank Discharges When radioactivity is released to the unrestricted area with liquid discharge from a tank (e.g., a radwaste discharge tank), the concentration of a radionuclide in the effluent is calculated as follows:

C, (C.=)(F')(Fd + Fr (A-33)

circulating cooling water or blowdown from a cooling tower or lake).

g:/odcm/generic/AttAr2-0/ A-20

Revision 2.0 April 1999 A.2.4 Tank Overflow Requirement To limit the consequences of tank overflow, the RETS/Technical Specifications may limit the quantity of radioactivity that may be stored in unprotected outdoor tanks. Unprotected tanks are tanks that are not surrounded by liners, dikes, or walls capable of holding the tank contents and that do not have tank overflows.

and surrounding area drains connected to the liquid radwaste treatment system. The specific objective is to provide assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of a tank's contents, the resulting radioactivity concentrations beyond the unrestricted area boundary, at the nearest potable water supply and at the nearest surface water supply, will be less than the limits of IOCFR20 Appendix B, Table 2; Column 2.

The Technical Specifications and RETS may contain a somewhat similar provision. For most nuclear power stations, specific numerical limits are specified on the number of curies allowed in affected tanks.

Application Table F-1 of Appendix F provides information on the limits applicable to affected stations. The limits are as stated for some stations in the station Technical Specifications.

A.2.5 Operability and Use of the Liquid Radwaste Treatment System Requirement The design objectives of IOCFR50, Appendix I and RETSITechnical Specifications require that the liquid radwaste treatment system be operable and that appropriate portions be used to reduce releases of radioactivity when projected doses due to the liquid effluent from each reactor unit to restricted area boundaries exceed either of the following (see Section 12.3 of each station's RETS or Technical Specifications);

  • 0.06 mrem to the whole body in a 31 day period.
  • 0.2 mrem to any organ in a 31 day period.

Equation Offsite doses due to projected releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents are calculated using Equation A-29. Projected radionuclide releases are used in place of measured releases A.

A.2.6 Drinking Water Five nuclear power stations (Braidwood, Dresden, LaSalle, Quad Cities, and Zion) have requirements for calculation of drinking water dose that are related to 40CFRI41, the Environmental Protection Agency National Primary Drinking Water Regulations. These are discussed in Section A.6.

A.2.7 Non-routine Liquid Release Pathways Cases in which normally non-radioactive liquid streams (such as the Service Water) are found to contain radioactive material are non-routine will be treated on a case specific basis if and when this occurs. Since each station has sufficient capacity to delay a liquid release for reasonable periods of time, It is expected that planned releases will not take place under these circumstances. Therefore, the liquid release setpoint calculations need not and do not contain provisions for treating multiple simultaneous release pathways.

A.3 DOSE DUE TO CONTAINED SOURCES There are presently two types of contained sources of radioactivity which are of concern in ComEd offsite radiological dose assessments.' The first source is that due to gamma rays from nitrogen-16 (N1') carried over to the turbine in BWR steam. The second source is that due to gamma rays associated with radioactive material resident in onsite radwatte storage facilities.

g:/odcm/gencric/AttAr2-0/ A2 A-21

Revision 2.0 April 1999 Gamma radiation from these sources contributes to the whole body dose (deep dose equivalent).

A.3.1 BWR Skyshine The contained onsite radioactivity source which results in the most significant offsite radiation levels at ComEd nuclear power stations is skyshine resulting from N16 decay inside turbines and steam piping at boiling water reactor (BWRs),

The N16 that produces the skyshine effect is formulated through neutron activation of the oxygen atoms (oxygen-16, or 016) in reactor coolant as the coolant passes through the operating reactor core. The N16 travels with the steam produced in the reactor to the steam driven turbine. While the N"6 is in transport, it radioactively decays with a half-life of about 7 seconds and produces 6 to 7 MeV gamma rays. Typically, offsite dose points are shielded from a direct view of components containing N16, but there can be skyshine radiation at offsite locations due to scattering of gamma rays off the mass of air above the steamlines and turbine.

The offsite dose rate due to skyshine has been found to have the following dependencies:

  • The dose rate decreases as distance from the station increases.
  • The dose rate increases non-linearly as the power production level increases.

To calculate offsite dose in a given time period due to skyshine, a boiling water nuclear power station must track the following parameters:

  • The total gross energy Eh produced with hydrogen being added.
  • The total gross energy E, produced without hydrogen being added.

The turbines at BWR sites are sufficiently close to each other that energy generated by the two units at each site may be summed.

An initial estimate of BWR skyshine dose is calculated per the following equation:

DY =(K) (E, + MhEh) x E(OFkSFkexp(-0.007Rk)) (A-34)

The summation is over all locations k occupied by a hypothetical maximally exposed member of the public characterized by the parameters specified In Table F-8. The parameters in Equation A-34 are defined as follows:

D"Y Dose Due to N-16 Skyshine [mrem]

Gamma dose (deep dose equivalent) due to BWR N-16 skyshine for the time period of interest.

K Empirical Constant [mrem/(MWe-hr)]

0.007 Empirical Constant [m1l A constant determined by fitting data measured at the Dresden station (see Reference 45).

R. Distance [.M]

I " Distance from the turbine to location k'. See Table F-8 of Appendix F.

A.3.2 Dose from Onsite Radwaste Storage Facilities Low level radioactive waste may be stored at any, or all CornEd nuclear power stations in the following types of storage facilities:

  • Interim Radwaste Storage Facility (IRSF)
  • Concrete vaults containing 48 radwaste liners (48-Pack)
  • Dry Active Waste (DAW) facilities
  • Butler buildingstwarehouses
  • Steam generator storage facilities The "48-Pack" is a shielded concrete vault which is designed to hold three tiers of radwaste liners in a four by four array. The outer shell of the "48-Pack" is a three-foot thick concrete wall and a two and one-half foot thick concrete cover slab. The vault is placed on a poured concrete slab. The liners may have an average surface dose rate of fifteen (15) rem per hour (or up to 380 rem/hr if a 50.59 evaluation has been completed).

The DAW facility will contain low-level radioactive waste that would result in dose rates less than the I OCFR20 requirements.

Preliminary locations for the 48-Packs and the DAW facilities have been selected for each station. Preliminary dose assessments, which include site-specific occupancy factors, indicate that the expected doses, to members of the public, when fully loaded, will be well within the 40CFRI 90 annual limits.

g:/odcmrgenericlAttAr2-0/ A-23

Revision 2.0 April 1999 The dose rates resulting from these radwaste storage facilities will be monitored frequently as they are being b utilized, and if necessary, a dose calculation model similar to that of Equation A-34 will be developed and placed in the ODCM.

A.4. Total Dose Limits (10CFR20 and 40CFRI90)

The regulatory requirements of 10CFR20 and 40CFR190 each require "total" doses to be assembled in an appropriate form. Sections A.1 and A.2 considered organ doses from the gaseous and liquid effluent streams.

The regulations of 10CFR20 and 40CFR190 also require consideration of direct radiation exposure from contained sources of radioactivity. Section A.3 addresses the direct radiation component. The following sections will describe the methodology of assessing direct radiation dose and then the manner in which the various doses are

-combined to obtain the appropriate "total for regulatory compliance purposes.

Annual dose limits In IOCFR20 are now expressed in terms of Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) where radiation exposures due to inhalation, ingestion and external sources are appropriately weighted to provide a uniform risk based comparison. As defined in IOCFR20, TEDE is equal to the sum of the deep-dose equivalent from external exposures and the committed effective dose equivalent (CEDE) from internal exposures.

AA.1 Deep Dose Equivalent -

The deep dose equivalent, Hd, Is comprised of three parts:

1) Whole body dose (deep dose equivalent) due to noble gas radionuclides in gaseous effluents (Section A.1.2),
2) Dose due to contained sources (Section A.3) and
3) Whole body dose due to radioactivity deposited on the ground (Section A.1.4.1).

Expressed as an equation using the notation used In this appendix, then;

  • Hd= Dc + Dn + D~nd (A-35)

Hd Deep Dose Equivalent (DDE) [mrem]

Dose equivalent due to external whole-body exposure at a tissue depth of 1 cm.

D.,b Whole Body Dose, Effluents [mrem]

DDE due to gamma radiation from noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents. See Equation A-6.

Dsky Dose Due to N-16 Skyshine [mrem]

DDE due to skyshine for the period of interest. See Equation A-34.

19-d Dose From Ground Deposition [mrem]

DDE due to ground deposition of non-noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents. See Equation A-14.

A.4.2 Committed Effective Dose Equivalent (CEDE)

The CEDE for internal exposures (HE.") is the sum of the products of the weighting factors applicable to each of the body organs, or tissues, that are irradiated and the committed dose equivalent (CDE) to those tissues.

HEO = ET WT HTNO (A-36) g:lodcm/generic/AttAr2-0/ A-24

Revision 2.0 April 1999 Committed Effective Dose Equivalent [mrem]

p The committed effective dose equivalent due to internal exposures.

WT Weighting Factor The weighting factor for organ or tissue (T)which is the proportion of stochastic effects resulting from the irradiation of that organ or tissue to the total risk of stochastic effects when the whole body is irradiated uniformly. Values of WT are given in Reference #93, Federal Guidance Report 11and in'10CFR20:

HT.g Committed Dose Equivalent [mrem]

The total dose equivalent to organs or tissues (T)that will be received, after an intake of radioactive material by an individual, over the 50 year period following the intake.

The general methodology for calculating the committed dose equivalents from airborne releases is given in Section A.1.4; and from liquid releases in Section A.2.1. In terms of parameters developed earlier in this document, then,

  • HT.so H DN NNGjinl(A-37)

+ Dab (37 DNNG CDE Due to Non-Noble Gas Radionuclides [mrem]

The sum of the dose and dose commitment to organ j of an individual

  • of age group 'a'-due to non-noble gas radionuclides released in gaseous effluents during a specified period. See Equation A-13.

Duqj, CDE for an Adult Due to Radioactivity Released in Liquid Effluents [mrem]

The CDE commitment to organ j of an individual of age group 'a' resulting from consumption water and fish containing radioactivity released in liquid effluents during a specified period. See Equation A-29.

In order to be consistent with the dose factor data, upon which the current revision of 10CFR20 is based, the CDEs DNNGa and D"Iq are now calculated using the dose factor data included in Federal Guidance Report No. 11, (Reference 93). The Regulatory Guide 1.109 dose factors (Reference 6 and ODCM, Appendix C) are still used for 10CFR50 Appendix I compliance.

A.4.3 Total Effective Dose Equivalent The above relationships may then be combined Into a single equation for the total effective dose equivalent, TEDE, as follows:

TEDE = Hd + HEso = Db + D'ky + D nd O ET WT (DJNG. + D~qa) (A-38)

TEDE Total Effective Dose Equivalent [mrem]

The sum of the deep dose equivalent (for external exposures) and the committed effective dose equivalent (for internal exposures).

g:/odcmigeneric/AttAr2-0/ A-25

Revision 2.0 April 1999 A.5 COMPLIANCE TO TOTAL DOSE LIMITS A.5.1 Total Effective Dose Equivalent Limit - IOCFR20 Compliance Requirement Each station's RETS limits the Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) to an annual limit of 100 mrem, as required by 10CFR20.1301 (a)(1). The regulations offer licensees the option of demonstrating compliance by one of two methods 10CFR20.1302 (b)(1) or IOCFR20.1302 (b)(2). The RETS state that the IOCFR20.1302 (b)(1) methodology has been selected to demonstrate compliance to 10CFR20.1301 (a)(1).

The general methodology for calculating the TEDE Is given in Section A.4.3. In lieu of specific regulatory guidance, this evaluation is conservatively made for an adult living at the nearest residence.

InAugust of 1995, a revision to IOCFR20 was implemented that changed the definition of a member of the public.

As a result, for each nuclear station, estimated doses were calculated for a member of the public who enters the site boundary, but is not authorized for unescorted access to the protected area of the site and does'not enter any radiologically posted areas on the site. Realistic assumptions were made for occupancy times and locations visited while within the site boundary.

These evaluations indicate that the doses estimated for these members of the public are well within the 10CFR20 limits. These dose evaluations will be performed annually and if necessary, a model will be developed and included in the ODCM.

Equation The TEDE is evaluated using Equation A-38.

Application This evaluation is used to demonstrate compliance to 10CFR20 and satisfy station RETS and Technical Specifications (see Chapter 12).

A.5.2 Total Dose due to the Uranium Fuel Cycle (40CFR190)

Requirement RETS and 40CFR190 limit the annual (calendar year) dose or dose commitment to any member of the public due to releases of radioactivity and to radiation from uranium fuel cycle sources to the following:

  • Less than or equal to 25 mrem to the whole body.
  • Less than or equal to 25 mrem to any organ except the thyroid.
  • Less than or equal to 75 mrem to the thyroid.

Total Dose Components This requirement includes the total dose from operations at the nuclear power station. This includes doses due to radioactive effluents (airborne and liquid) and dose due to direct radiation from non-effluent sources (e.g., sources contained in systems on site). It also includes dose due to plants under consideration, neighboring plants and dose due to other facilities in the uranium fuel cycle.

The operations comprising the uranium fuel cycle are specified in 40CFRI90.02(b). The following are included to the extent that they directly support the production of electrical power for public use utilizing nuclear energy:

gi/odcrn/generic/AttAr2-0/ A2 A-2 6

Revision 2.0 April 1999

  • Generation of electricity by a light-watered-cooled nuclear power ant using ! ranium fuel.
  • Reprocessing of spent uranium fuel.

Excluded are:

  • Mining operations.
  • Operations at waste disposal sites.
  • Transportation of any radioactive material Insupport of these operations.
  • The re-use of recovered non-uranium special nuclear and by-product materials from the cycle.

When Compliance Assessment Is Required.

The calculation of compliance to 40CFRI90 regulations is now required as part of demonstration of compliance to 10CFR20 regulations.

Equation The dose due to the uranium fuel cycle is determined with equations A-35 and A-37, sections A.4.1 and A.4.2 respectively.

A.5.3 Summary of Compliance Methodology The required-compliance is given in Tables 2-1, 2-2 and 2-3. In Table 2-1, the dose components are itemized and referenced, and an indication of their regulatory application is noted. A more detailed compliance matrix is given in Table 2-3. The locations of dose receivers for each dose component are given in Table 2-2.

Further, Table 2-2 states the location of the receiver and occupancy factors, if applicable. In general, the receiver spends time in locations that result in maximum direct dose exposure and inhales and ingests.radioactivity from sites that yield maximum pathway doses. Thus, the dose calculated is a very conservative one compared to the.

"average" receiver who does not go out of his way to maximize radioactivity uptakes. Finally, the connection between regulations, the ODCM equations and the station RETS and Technical Specifications is given in Table 12-0.

A.6 DOSE DUE TO DRINKING WATER (40CFRI41)

The National Primary Drinking Water Regulations, 40CFRI41, contain the requirements of the Environmental Protection Agency applicable to public water systems. Included are limits on radioactivity concentration. Although these regulations are directed at the owners and operators of public water systems, several stations have requirements in their Technical Specifications related to 40CFRI41.

A.6.1 40CFRI41 Restrictions on Manmade Radionuclides Section 141.16 states the following:

(a) The average annual concentration of beta particle and photon radioactivity from man-made radionuclides in drinking water shall not produce an annual dose equivalent to the total body or any internal organ greater than 4 milliremlyear.

(b) Except for the radionuclides listed in Table A-t, the concentration of man-made radionuclides causing 4 mrem total body or organ dose equivalents shall be calculated on the basis of drinking 2 liter of water per day. (Using the 168 hour0.00194 days <br />0.0467 hours <br />2.777778e-4 weeks <br />6.3924e-5 months <br /> data listed in "Maximum Permissible Body Burdens and Maximum Permissible'Concentration of Radionuclides in Air or Water for Occupational Exposure, "NBSHandbook 69 as amended August 1963, U.S. Department of Commerce.). If two or more

-g:/odcmlgeneric/AttAr2-0/ A2 A-27

Revision 2.0 April 1999 radionuclides are present, the sum of their annual dose equivalents to the total body or any organ shall not exceed 4 millirem/year.

Projections are made using projected radioriuclides releases in place of measured releases A. Doses calculated using Equation A-30 may differ from doses determined by the methodology prescribed in 40CFR141.16.

When required, a nuclear power station prepares a special report on radiological impact at the nearest community water system. This system is taken as the one listed in Table A-3 of this appendix. The report should include the following:

  • The doses calculated by Equation A-30.
  • Astatement identifying the dose calculation methodology (e.g., a reference to this manual).
  • A statement that the doses calculated by the ODCM methodology are not necessarily the same as doses calculated by the methodology prescribed in 40CFR141.16.
  • The data used to calculate the doses. This information includes the amounts of radioactivity released and the flow rate and dilution values used (see Table F-1).

MODELS AND PARAMETERS FOR AIRBORNE EFFLUENT CALCULATIONS B.C INTRODUCTION The equations used for calculation of doses due to radioactive airborne effluents are given in Section A.1 of Appendix A. The equations involve the following types of parameters:

  • Meteorological Parameters These include XIQ, DlQ, and wind speed. Their values are based on historical average atmospheric conditions at a site for a selected multi-year historical period (see Section 4.1.5).
  • Dose Factors These parameters are used to provide a simple way to calculate doses and dose rates due to gamma and beta radiation. Some of these parameters are independent of meteorological conditions and therefore generic (i.e., not station-specific). Others have values based on historical average atmospheric conditions for a selected multi-year historical period and are therefore station-specific.
  • Measured Release Parameters These are measured values of radioactivity releases and release rates.
  • Radiological Decay Constants These are used to account for the radioactive decay between the release of radioactivity to the environment and the exposure of persons to It.

Production/Exposure Parameters These are parameters characterizing agricultural production (e.g., length of growing season, transport times) and human exposure patterns (e.g., exposure period, breathing rate, food consumption rates). These parameters affect the quantities of radioactivity to which persons may be exposed.

This appendix discusses the methodology used to determine values of these parameters. Section 8.1 addresses how the historical meteorology of a site is characterized by use of a function called the joint frequency distribution. Section B.1 and Sections B.3 through B.6 present equations that use the joint frequency distribution to obtain values for site-specific meteorological and dose parameters. Most of these equations involve a mathematical model of a plume known as the Gaussian plume model. This model is developed in Section B.2. Various generic dose factors are discussed in Sections B.7 through B.10. The other parameters are discussed in the remaining sections.

B.1 METEOROLOGICAL DATA AND PARAMETERS Predicting where airborne effluent will travel requires information on the following:

  • Wind speed
  • Wind direction
  • Atmospheric turbulence The greater the atmospheric turbulence, the more an effluent plume will tend to broaden and the more dilute the concentration will be. Atmospheric turbulence is affected by the general condition of the atmosphere (e.g., the vertical temperature distribution) and by local features (e.g., objects that protrude into the wind stream). A commonly used classification scheme for the degree, of atmospheric turbulence associated with the general condition of the atmosphere involves seven stability classes:

G:/odcm/generic/AttBr2-0/ B-1

Revision 2.0 April 1999 A Extremely Unstable B Moderately Unstable i C Slightly Unstable D Neutral

  • E Slightly Stable F Moderately Stable G Extremely Stable This classification scheme is based on -Reference 5,Table 1. Each class is associated with a particular range of wind direction fluctuations and of vertical temperature gradients in the atmosphere. These are -

specified In Table C-4 of Appendix C.

B.1.1 Data Historical atmospheric conditions at each nuclear power station were recorded by an instrumented meteorological tower that measured wind speed, wind direction, and temperature at various heights.

Hourly average values of wind speed, wind direction, and stability class were determined. The difference in temperature between two heights was used to assign an atmospheric stability class based on the correlation between temperature gradient and stability class in Table C-4 of Appendix C.

  • In obtaining the data, quality assurance checks and corrections were made. Also, corrections were applied to compensate for the limitations of wind sensors at low speeds. A calm was said to exist If the wind speed was less than that of the threshold of either the anemometer (wind speed meter) or the wind direction vane. For calm conditions, a wind speed equal to one-half of the higher threshold was assigned.

For each stability class, the wind directions during calm conditions were assumed to be distributed in proportion to the observed wind direction distribution of the lowest non-calm wind speed class.;

B.1.2 Joint Frequency Distribution The data for a particular historical period are summarized by developing ajoint frequency distribution (JFD). Each such distribution specifies the fraction of time during the historical period that the following-jointly Qccur.

  • Wind speed within a particular range (wind speed class).
  • Downwind direction in one of the 16 sectors corresponding to the 16 principal compass directions (N,NNE, etc.).
  • Atmospheric conditions corresponding to one of the seven atmospheric stability classes discussed in Section B.1. Table B-1 of this appendix displays a portion of an example JFD.

Different JFDs are associated with the different release classifications defined in Section 4.1.4. One JFD is defined for stack releases, and another JFD is defined for ground level releases. Two JFDs are associated with vent (mixed mode) releases, one for the portion of the time the release is treated as elevated and the other for the portion of the time the release is treated as ground level.

B.1.2.1 Downwind Direction Versus Upwind Direction Unless otherwise noted, any reference to wind direction in this document represents downwind direction, i.e., the direction in which the wind is blowing toward. This is because the parameters developed in this document are used to calculate radioactivity concentration and radiation dose downwind of a release point. In contrast, it is conventional for meteorologists to provide JFDs based on upwind direction, the direction from which the wind is blowing. For example, the JFDs presented in the annual operating reports of the nuclear power stations are obtained from a meteorological contractor and the directions specified in the reports are upwind directions. Users of JFDs should always be careful to ascertain whether the directions specified are upwind or downwind.

G:/odcm/generic/AttBr2-0B B-2

Revision 2.0 April 1999 B.1.2.2 Stack JFD For a stack release, the JFD is defined as follows:

Ef,(n,Oc) Joint Frequency Distribution, Stack Release The fraction of hours during a period of observation that all of the following hold:

  • The average wind speed is within wind speed class n.
  • The downwind direction is within the sector denoted by 0.
  • The atmospheric stability class is c.

This function is defined for application to a stack release point (see Section 4.1.4). Its value is based on hourly average wind data obtained at a height representative of the release point height The stack JFD is normalized to 1:

£ f,(nOc) = I (B-I)

The summation is over all wind speed classes n, all compass direction sectors 0, and all stability classes C.

B.1.2.3 Ground Level JFD For a ground level release, the JFD f 9(n, G,c) is defined in the same way as for a stack release except that the wind data are obtained at a height representative of a ground level release point. This height is taken as about 10meters.

The ground level JFD is normalized to 1:

f(n,O,c) I (B-2)

The summation is over all wind speed classes n, all compass direction sectors, and all stability classes c.

B.1.2.4 Vent JFDs In accordance with the approach. recommended In Regulatory Guide 1.111 (Reference 7), the plume from a vent release is treated as elevated part of the time and as ground level the rest of the time. Two JFDs are determined:

  • fvelev(n,O,c) characterizes the plume during the part of the time that it is considered elevated;
  • fvgnd(n,0,c) characterizes the plume during the part of the time that it is considered ground level.

Their definitions are as follows:

fvelev(n,O,c) Joint Frequency Distribution, Elevated Portion of a Vent Release G:/odcm/generic/AttBr2-01 B-3

Revision 2.0 April 1999 The fraction of hours during a period of observation that the plume is considered elevated and that all of the following hold:

  • The average wind speed is within wind speed class n.
  • The downwind direction Is within the secftr denoted by 0.
  • The atmospheric stability class is c.

fv,9 nd(nOc) Joint Frequency Distribution, Ground Level Portion of a Vent Release The fraction of hours during a period of observation that the plume is considered ground level and that all of the following hold:

  • The average wind speed is within wind speed class n.
  • The downwind direction is within the sector denoted by.0.
  • The atmospheric stability class is c.

The value of fvelev(n, 0,c) is based on hourly average wind data at a height representative of the vent release point. Where the measurement height differed considerably from the release height, wind speed data for the release height was obtained by extrapolation. The value Of fv gnd(n, 0,c) is based on hourly average wind data obtained at a height representative of a ground level release point. This is taken as about 10 meters.

The sum of these two JFDs is normalized to 1:

A{ fv,elev(n, 0,c) + Fvgnd(n, 0,c) = (B-3)

The summation is over all wind speed classes n, all compass direction sectors 0, and all stability classes c.

The prescription of Regulatory Guide 1.111 is used in determining the fraction of time that the plume is considered elevated and the fraction of time that it is considered ground level. The fractions are obtained from the ratio of stack exit velocity WO to hourly-average wind speed u at the height of the vent release point as follows:

  • if WoIu > 5. then the plume is considered elevated for the hour.
  • If WoIu < 1, then the plume is considered ground level for the hour.
  • if 1 < Wolu < 5, the plume is considered to be a ground level release for a fraction Gt of the hour and an elevated release for a fraction (1 - Gt) of the hour where Gt is defined as follows:

Gt = 2.58 - 1.58(Wolu) for 1.0 < WIu c 1.5 (B-4)

Gt = 0.30 - 0.06(Wolu) for 1.5 < WoJu < 5.0 (B-5)

B.1.3 Average Wind Speed Using the joint frequency distribution, average wind speeds are obtained for each station. Values are obtained for each downwind-direction (N, NNE, etc.) and for various release point classifications (stack, vent, and ground level).

G:/odcm/generic/AttBr2-0/ B-4

Revision 2.0 April 1999 B.1.3.1 Stack Release For a stack release, the following formula is used:

Revision 2.0 April 1999 B.2 GAUSSIAN PLUME MODELS As a plume of airborne effluents moves away from an elevated release point, the plume both broadens and meanders. It has been found that the time-averaged distribution of matt-ial in an effluent plume can be well represented mathematically by a Gaussian function.

B.2.1 Mathematical Representation In-a widely used form of the Gaussian plume model, the distribution of radioactivity in a plume is represented mathematically by the equation below:

X(x,y,z) - [OJ(2n cy czu)]exp(y 2 I2a 2 y) x {exp[-(z-he) 2 11cr2zo+ exp[-(z+he) 2 /2c2z]) (B1-9)

X(x,y,z) Radioactivity Concentration IPCUrn3 The concentration of radioactivity at point (x,yz). The x, y, and z axis are defined as follows:

x Downwind Distance (m]

Distance from the stack along an axis parallel to the wind direction.

y Crosswind Distance . [m]

Distance from the plume centerline along an axis parallel to the crosswind direction.

z Vertical Distance [m]

Distance from the ground (grade level at the stack) along an axis parallel to the vertical direction.

Q Release Rate [pCVsec]

Release rate of radioactivity.

cry, CFz Horizontal and Vertical Dispersion Coefficients [ml]

Standard deviations of the Gaussian distributions describing the plume cross-sections in the y and z directions, respectively. The values of cy and az depend on several parameters:

  • Downwind distance x.

Because a plume broadens and meanders as it travels away from its release point, the values of ay and crz increase as x increases.

  • Atmospheric stability class.

The plume is broadest for extremely unstable atmospheric conditions (Class

  • - A) and narrowest for extremely stable conditions (Class G).

.. Time period of averaging plume concentration.

GWJodcmn/generic/AttBr2-01 B-6

Revision 2.0 April 1999 The values of cry and az increase as the averaging period increases.

u Average Wind Speed . [mlsec]

The average wind speed. The average speed of travel of the plume in the x direction.

he Effective Release Height [in The effective height of effluent release above grade elevation.

This may be greater than the actual release height (see Section B.3.1.1.1).

The two exponential functions of z in the curly brackets of Equation B-9 represent the emitted and reflected components of the plume. The reflected component (represented by the exponential with (z +

he) in its argument) arises from the assumption that all material in a portion of the plume that touches ground is reflected upward. This assumption is conservative if one is calculating airborne radioactivity concentration.

B.2.2 Sector-Averaged Concentration Sometimes, it is desired to determine the average concentration of radioactivity in a sector due to release at a constant rate over an extended period of time (e.g., a year). For such a case, it is reasonable to assume that the wind blows with equal likelihood toward all directions within the sector. From Equation B-9. the following equation for ground level radioactivity concentration can be derived:

Xsector = [2.032 f QI(cz u x)]exp(.h 2 eI2a 2 z) (8410)

Xsector Sector-Averaged Ground Level [PCi/m 3I Concentration The time-averaged concentration of airborne radioactivity in a sector at ground level at a distance x from the release point.

2.032 A dimensionless constant.

f Sector Fraction The fraction of time that the wind blows into the sector.

Q Release rate of radioactivity. [pJCisec]

The other parameter definitions are the same as for Equation B-9.

B.3 RELATIVE CONCENTRATION FACTOR X1Q The relative concentration factor X/Q (called "chi over QW) provides a simple way of calculating the radioactivity concentration at a given point in an effluent plume when the release rate is known:

X =Q(XIQ) (B-11)

X Concentration of Radioactivity [pCim 3]

Concentration of radioactivity at point (x,y,z) in the atmosphere.

Q 'Release Rate [pCisec]

G:/odcm/generic/AMBr2-0/ B-7

Revision 2.0 April 1999 Release rate of radioactivity.

XIQ Relative Concentration Factor [sec/m3]

  • ' Relative concentration factor for point (xyz). The airborne radioactivity concentration at (x,yz) per unit release rate.

Expressions for X/Q based on Gaussian plume models can be obtained from the equations for concentration X in Section B.2 simply by dividing both sides of each equation by the release rate Q. For example, from Equation B-10, we obtain the following expression for the sector-averaged X/Q:

(Xsector1Q) = 12.032 f/(cT u x)]exp(-h 2 ei2ci2z) (B-12)

  • The values of XIQ used in ODCM calculations are both sector-averaged and time-averaged. The time averaging is based on the historical average atmospheric conditions of a specified multi-year time period (see Section 4.1.5) and is accomplished by use of the joint frequency distribution discussed in Section B.1.2. The formulas used to obtain the time- and sector-averaged XIQ are based on Equation B-12, but vary depending on whether the release is a stack, ground level, or vent release. The three cases are discussed below.

B.3.1 Stack Release For a stack release, the relative concentration factor is designated (XIQ)5 . Its value is obtained by the following formula:

(X/Q)s =.(2.0321R) Z{ f,(n,0,c) x [exp (-h2eI2a2 z)]1(un Oz)) (B-13)

The summation is over wind speed classes n and atmospheric stability classes c.

(XIQ)s Relative Concentration Factor, [sec/m3 ]

Stack Release The time- and sector-averaged relative concentration factor due to a stack release for a point at ground level at distance R In downwind direction 0.

2.032 Constant A dimensionless constant.

R Downwind Distance [i]

The downwind distance from the release point to the point of interest.

f5(n,0,c) Joint Frequency Distribution, Stack Release This function is defined in Section B.1.2.2.

he Effective Release Height [m]

The effective height of an effluent release above grade elevation. For a stack release, he is obtained by correcting the actual height of the release point for plume rise, terrain effects, and downwash as described in Section. B.3.1.1, below.

G:Iodcm/generic/AttBr2-0I B-8

Revision 2.0 April 1999 CZ Standard Vertical Dispersion Coefficient -[m]

A coefficient characterizing vertical plume spread inthe Gaussian model for stability class c at distance R (see Table C-5 of Appendix C).

Un Wind Speed [mlsec]

A wind speed representative of wind speed class n. For each wind speed class except the highest, un is the average of the upper and lower limits of the wind speed range for the class. For the highest wind speed class, un is the lower limit of the wind speed range for the class.

This expression is recommended by the NRC in Regulatory Guide 1.111 (Reference 7) and is based on a model designated there as the "constant mean wind direction model." In this model it is assumed that the mean wind speed, the mean wind direction, and the atmospheric stability class determined at the release point also apply at all points within the region in which airborne concentration is being evaluated.

B.3.1.1 Effective Release Height For a stack release, the effective height of an effluent plume is the height of the release point corrected for plume rise and terrain effects:

If (hs + hpr - ht) < 100 meters, then he = hs

  • hpr- ht (B-14)

If (hs + hpr - ht) > 100 meters, then; he = 100 meters (B-15) he Effective Release Height [M]

The effective height of an effluent release above grade elevation.

hs Actual Release Height [i]

ht Terrain Correction Parameter [m]

A parameter to account for the effect of terrain elevation on the effective height of a plume. Taken as zero (see Section B.3.1.1.2).

B.3.1.1.1 Plume Rise Because nuclear power stations generally have plumes that are not significantly warmer than room temperature, plume rise due to buoyancy is neglected. The formulas used to calculate plume rise due to momentum are given below.

The parameters fvelev(nOc) and fvgnd(nOc) are defined in Section B.1.2.4. The parameter Si is defined in Section B.3.2. The remaining parameters are defined in Section B.3.1.

B.3.4 Removal Mechanisms In Regulatory Guide 1.1 11, the NRC allows various removal mechanisms to be considered in evaluating the radiological impact of airborne effluents. These include radioactive decay, dry deposition, wet deposition, and deposition over water. Radiological decay is taken into account in the equations of this manual which use XIQ (see Appendix A).

For simplicity, the other removal mechanisms cited by the NRC are not accounted for in the evaluation or use of XIQ in this manual. This represents a conservative approximation as ignioring removal mechanisms increases the value of X/Q.

B.5 GAMMA AIR DOSE FACTORS (SI, VI, GI)

The gamma air dose factors provide a simple way of calculating doses and dose rates to air due to gamma radiation. For example, using a dose factor DFI, gamma air dose rate may be calculated as follows:

Three gamma air dose factors are defined: Si, VI, and GI. They are used for stack, vent, and ground level releases, respectively. These three release point classifications are defined in Section 4.1.4. The calculation of the three dose factors is discussed below.

B.S.1 Stack Release For a stack release, the gamma air dose factor S. is obtained by a model similar to that of Equation 6 of Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6). A sector-averaged Gaussian plume is assumed and the dose factor is evaluated on the basis of historical average atmospheric conditions. The value of SI depends on distance R from the release point a'nd on downwind sector 0.

The following equation is used:

SI = [2601(2nR/16)] x Z{f.(n,0,c)[exp(-X1 R13600uj)] xEk P.(Ek)AK, 1(he,un,c,a z,E)Iun) (B-36)

I Function A dimensionless parameter obtained by numerical evaluation of integrals that arise in the plume gamma dose problem. The value of I depends on the' arguments (...) listed in Equation B-36. A specific'definition for I is given by Equation F-13 of Regulatory Guide 1.109.

The integrals involved in calculating I arise from conceptually dividing up the radioactive plume Into small elements of radioactivity and adding up the doses produced at the point of interest by all of the small elements. The distribution of radioactivity in the plume is represented by a sector-averaged Gaussian plume model like that discussed in Section B.2.2.

The parameters R, h.. un, and a. are defined in Section B.3.1.

B.5.2 Ground Level Release The gamma air dose factor GI for a ground level release is defined as follows:

GI Gamma Air Dose Factor, Ground Level Release [(mradlyr)/

(pCVsec)]

The gamma air dose factor at ground level for a ground level release for radionuclide 1,downwind sector 0, downwind distance R from the release point, and the average atmospheric conditions of a specified historical time period.

The value of GI is obtained by the same equation as used for a stack release, Equation B-36 of Section B.5.1, with the following modifications:

  • The joint frequency distribution for a ground level release (f9 of Section B.1.2.3) is used in place of the one for a stack release (f,).
  • In evaluating the I function, the effective release height h, is taken as zero.

This corresponds to use of a finite plume model. This approach differs from that of Regulatory Guide 1.109 in that the regulatory guide has a uniform semi-infinite cloud model to determine dose factors for a ground level release. The approach used here is more realistic than that in the regulatory guide.

B.5.3 Vent Release For a vent release, the gamma air dose factor is calculated as follows:

Vi = [2601(2nRR16)] x E(fv,,1.v(nOc)[exp(-XRI360Ou,)I x Ak,EkPfl(Ek) l(h.,un,c,qa,Ek)Iu. (B-38)

B.6

  • WHOLE BODY DOSE FACTORS (SI, VI, GI)

The whole body dose factors provide a simple way of calculating doses and dose rates due to gamma irradiation of the whole body. They are similar to the gamma air dose factors (see the discussion at the beginning of Section 8.5). The whole body dose factors are defined for stack, vent, and ground level releases, respectively.

B.6.1 Stack Release To obtain the whole body dose factor for a stack release, Equation B-36 is modified to account for the attenuation of gamma radiation by 1 cm of tissue with a density of 1 g/m3. The following expression results:

Si = [2601(2itR/l6)] x Z{ fs(n,9,c)[exp(-%IRi3600un)] (8-39) x Aki Ek Ija(Ek) I(he.unscz,Ek) x [l/unlexpij-Ta(Ek) td] }

The summation is over wind speed classes n, atmospheric stability classes c, and photon group indices k.

The change is the addition of the factor exp[-pTa(Ek) td].

All of the parameters are discussed in Section 8.5.1 except the following:

S, Whole Body Gamma Dose Factor, Stack Release [(mrad/yr)/(pCi/sec)]

The whole body gamma dose factor at ground level for a stack release for radionuclide 1,downwind sector 0, downwind distance R from the release point, and the average atmospheric conditions of a specified historical time period.

B.6.2 Ground Level Release The whole body dose factor GI for a ground level release is defined as f6llows:

B.7 BETA AIR AND SKIN DOSE FACTORS (LILi)

The dose factors Li and L1 provide a simple way of calculating beta air and skin doses and dose rates, just as the gamma air dose factors do (see the discussion at the beginning of Section B.5). Their definitions are as follows:

  • Lj, discussed in Section A.1.2.2 of Appendix A, is used to calculate beta air dose due to noble gas radionuclide I and has the following units:

Evaluations are made for the adult only. The units of DFAU, are (Sv) per (Bq) inhaled.

B.10 INGESTION DOSE COMMITMENT FACTOR DFAU, The ingestion dose commitment factor DFAj, is used to calculate dose to organ j of an individual of age group a due to ingestion of radionuclide I (see Equation A-1 8 of Appendix A).

Values of DFAU. for IOCFR50 compliance are taken from Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6). The units of DFAUja are mrem per pCi ingested. InTables E-11, E-12, E-13 and E-14 of Reg. Guide 1.109, values are provided for seven organs, with the whole body considered as an organ.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 SECTION 2:

MODELS AND PARAMETERS FOR LIQUID EFFLUENT CALCULATIONS B.14 INTRODUCTION Equations for radiation dose and radioactivity concentration due to liquid effluents are given in Section A.2 of Appendix A. The equations involve the following types of parameters:

  • Flow and Dilution Parameters.
  • Dose Factors.
  • Measured Release Parameters.
  • Radiological Decay Constants.
  • Transport/Consumption Parameters.

This section discusses the methodology used to determine these parameters. Section B.15 addresses dose calculations and Section B.16 addresses concentration calculations for tank discharges. For dose' calculations, flow and dilution parameters are discussed for two different models; the River Model, which is used for all nuclear power stations except Zion, and the Lake Michigan Model, which is used for Zion.

B.15 DOSE B.15.1 Drinking Water The radiation dose due to consumption of drinking water containing released radioactivity is calculated by Equation A-30 of Appendix A:

DWATER = (1.1E-3)(8760)(UwaMwIFw) X Ad AIDFI~jaexp(-%jtw)) (A-30)

The summation is over index I (radionuclides) and the parameters are defined in Section A.2.1 of Appendix A.

This equation can be understood as arising from the following model:

  • Release of an amount A of radioactivity over a time period T at a uniform rate AIT into a stream flowing at a constant rate F. [The resulting radioactivity concentration in the flowing stream is (AIT)IF.]

A fraction of full river flow in which dilution (mixing) occurs is represented by I/M (with 1/M < 1).

  • The radioactivity decays for a time t with decay constant X.
  • Water containing the diluted radioactivity is then consumed at constant rate U for a time period T.
  • The dose commitment per unit of ingested radioactivity is DFI.

This model leads to the following equation for dose commitment:

D = [(AIT)IF] (M) [exp(-Xt)] (UT) DFI (B-41)

D = U (MIF) A DFI exp(-Xt) (B-42)

Any set of consistent units can be used for the above parameters. For example, the following would be suitable:

A Released Radioactivity [pCI]

T Period of Release and Consumption [hr]

F Dilution Stream Flow Rate . [Lhr) 1/M Additional Dilution Factor [dimensionless]

G:/odcm/generic/AttBr2-0/B-1 B-21

Revision 2.0 April 1999 X Decay Constant [hr']

t Decay Period [hr]

U Consumption Rate [L~hr]

DFI Ingestion Dose Commitment Factor [mrem/pCi]

D Dose Commitment [mrem]

In Equation A-30 of Appendix A, units different from the above have been chosen for A and F:-

A Released Radioactivity [WCi]

F Dilution Stream Flow Rate [cfs]

With the modified units, Equation B-42 takes the following form:

D = KU (MIF) A DFI exp(-Xt) (B-43) where K is a units conversion factor which is expressed as follows:

K = [1.IE-3 (pCIIL)(ftelsec)I(pClIyr)] x 18760 hrlyr] (B-44)

B.15.2 Aquatic Foods (Fish)

Near the nuclear power stations, the only aquatic food of significance for human consumption is fish. The radiation dose due to consumption of fish containing released radioactivity is calculated by Equation A-31 of Appendix A:

D lFsh = (l.IE-3) (8760) (UfaMf/Ff) x Z(AiBiDFIgjaexp(-%Itf)} (A-31)

The summation is over radionuclides I, and the parameters are defined in Section A.2.1 of Appendix A.

The form of this equation is like that used for calculating the dose due to drinking water except for the addition of the bioaccumulation factor, B.. This factor is the equilibrium ratio of the concentration of radionuclide I in fish (pCi/kg) to its concentration in water (pCiL). It accounts for the fact that radioactivity ingested by fish can accumulate in their bodies to a higher concentration than in the waters in which the fish live.

B.15.3 Parameters B.15.3.1 Flow, Dilution, and Transport Time The values of dilution flow rate F. dilution factor 11M, and decay period t can differ for water and fish. The dilution and decay parameters for water will depend on where water is drawn, while those for fish will depend on where the fish are caught. Models used to determine these parameters are discussed below. The values used for each station are summarized in Table F-1 of Appendix F.

B.15.3.1.1 River Model For the purpose of calculating the drinking water dose from liquid effluents discharged into a river, it is assumed that total mixing of the discharge in the river flow (Fw) occurs prior to consumption. The measure of dilution used isthe parameter 11Mw and may be thought of as the fraction of full river flow in which dilution occurs. 11 Mw = 1 represents full dilution, II Mw less than I represents dilution in only a portion of the river.

G:/odcm/generic/AnBr2-01 B-22

Revision 2.0 April 1999 The river flow is taken as the long-term average (generally 10 years). The time period for decay is based on the flow time to the nearest potable water intake on the receiving body of water. This location is described in a footnote to Table F-1 of Appendix F.

For the fish consumption pathway, a near-field dilution flow (Ft ) is used. This is an estimate of the dilution of released radioactivity in the water consumed by fish caught near the station downstream of its discharge. No additional dilution is assumed to occur. The decay time between release of radioactivity and its consumption in fish is taken as 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

B.15.3.1.2 Lake Michigan Model Only (Zion) discharges liquid effluents into Lake Michigan. For this nuclear power station, It is assumed that the concentration of radioactivity is diluted initially In the condenser cooling water flow (Fc) and then by an additional factor of 60 prior to consumption as potable water (ie; Fw = F / 60). The dilution factor of 60 is the product of the following:

  • Initial entrainment dilution (factor of 10).
  • Plume dilution (factor of 3 over approximately I mile).
  • Current direction frequency (annual average factor of 2).

For the fish ingestion pathway only, it is assumed that radioactivity is diluted in a hypothetical river of flow F' with dilution 11 Ml = 1.0. To determine Ff, it was assumed that the near shore lake current constitutes a "river" with the following characteristics:

  • Width of 5 miles (based on the observed width of the lake current varying from 2 to 10 miles).
  • Depth of 50 feet (the average take depth from shore out to 5 miles near Zion).
  • Flow rate of 0.2 miles per hour (the measured, offshore average value).

This results in F' = 4E5 cfs. The decay time between' release of radioactivity and its consumption in fish is taken as 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

B.15.3.2 Dose Factors Equations A-30 and A-31 of Appendix A determine dose'due to ingested radioactivity using the same ingestion dose factor DFIIJa as used in the evaluation of airborne radioactivity which is ingested with foods.

The units of DFIIja are:

(mrem) per (pCi ingested)

For 10CFR50 Appendix I compliance, the data of Tables E-1, E-12, E-13 and E-14 of Reg. Guide 1.109, are used for four age groups and for seven organs, with the whole body considered as an organ.

For 10CFR20 compliance, the data of Federal Guidance Report 11 (Reference 93) are used. Data are provided for an adult only, and all organs. Note these data have units of Sieverts per Becquerel ingested and must be multiplied by 3.7x109 to convert to units of (mrem) per (pCi ingested).

B.15.3.3 Measured Releases Calculations of dose due to liquid effluents require measured values of radioactivity release (Al) for input.

These release values are obtained per the nuclear power station procedures.

B.15.3.4 Radiological Decay Values used for these constants are obtained from the literature and are listed in Table C-7 of Appendix C.

G:/odcm/generic/AttBr2-0/ B-23

Revision 2.0 April 1999 B.15.3.5 Consumption Equations A-30 and A-31 of Appendix A involve consumption rates for water and fish (UWa and Ufa). The values used are. specified for each nuclear power station in Table F-I of Appendix F.

6.16 CONCENTRATION IN TANK DISCHARGES The concentration of radioactivity in a release to the unrestricted area due to a tank discharge is calculated by Equation A-33 of Appendix A:

C1 = (Ct, )(Fr)I(Fd + Fr) (A-33)

The parameters are defined in Section A.2.3 of Appendix A.

The radioactivity concentration released from the tank (Ct, at flow rate Fr) is diluted by mixing with the initial dilution stream (with flow rate Fd) to yield a lower concentration (C1 ) in the combined streams.

Revision 2.0 April 1999 APPENDIX C GENERIC DATA C.1 INTRODUCTION This appendix contains generic (common to one or more of the stations) offsite dose calculation parameter factors, or values. Site specific factors are provided in the station annex Appendix F. The factors described in section C.2 and C.3 are found In the prescribed references and are not repeated in this appendix.

C.2 10CFR50 DOSE COMMITMENT FACTORS The dose commitment factors for 10CFR50 related calculations are exactly those provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6). The following table lists the parameters and the corresponding data tables in the RG 1.109:

PATHWAY ADULT TEENAGER CHILD INFANT Inhalation RG 1.109:Table E-7 RG 1.109:Table E-8 RG 1.109:Table E-9 RG 1.109:Table E-10 Ingestion RG 1.109:Table E-11 RG 1.109:Table E-12 RG 1.109:Table E-13 RG 1.109:Table E-14 These tables are contained in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6). Each table (E-7 through E-14) provides dose factors for seven organs for each of,73 radionuclides. For radionuclides not found in these tables, dose factors will be derived from ICRP 2 (Reference 50) or NUREG-0172 (Reference 51).

C.3 IOCFR20 DOSE COMMITMENT FACTORS Dose commitment factors for 10CFR20 related calculations are exactly those provided Federal Guidance Report Number 11 (Reference 93). The following table lists the parameters and the corresponding tables in the RG 1.109:

PATHWAY AVERAGE INDIVIDUAL Inhalation FGR-11: Table 2.1 Ingestion FGR-11: Table 2.2 The factors used in offsite dose calculations are for the seven organs (Gonad, Breast, Lung, R.: Marrow, B. Surface, Thyroid and Remainder organs) but do not include the Effective (weighted) values. The factors in FGR#1 I have units of Sieverts/Becquerel (SvIBq). To convert to traditional units of mremlpCi multiply the factors by 3.7E+3.

NOTE: There are radionuclides listed in FGR-1 1 that have more than one clearance classification (day, week or year). For these nuclides, a conservative approach was used to pick the dose commitment factors for the dose calculations. For these nuclides, the highest (largest) value was picked for each organ no matter which clearance class it belonged to. As a result, for dose calculations involving these nuclides, the resulting calculated dose will be conservatively high when compared to a calculation that uses only the dose commitment factors for the clearance classification with the highest value for the Effective dose conversion factor. For example:

Assume that the radionuclide in question Is Mg-28 and the pathway is inhalation. From Table 2.1 in FGR-11, the dose commitment values are:

Nuclide Classtf, Gonad Breast Luna R. Marrow B. Surface Thyroid Remainder Effective Mg-28 D 2.91E-10 2.07E-10 2.96E-9 7.96E-10 1.42E-9 1.78E-10 .1.04E-9 9.16E.10 W 2.59E-1 0 1.46E-1 0 5.92E-9 4.03E-1 0 6.4E-10 1.07E-1 0 1.55E-9 1.33E-9 Mg-28 has two clearance classifications; D and W. The clearance class with the highest effective dose conversion factor (the column on the far right) is 5W"clearance class. But the actual factors used in the G:Iodcrnlgeneric1AttCr2-0I -

C-1

Revision 2.0 April 1999 ODCM offsite dose calculations are picked from the highest value listed for each organ as shown in the bold text in the next table:

Nuclide Clan!L, Gonad Breast Luna R. Marrow B. Surface Thvroid Remainder Effective Mg-28 D 2.91E-10 2.07E-10 2.96E-9 7.96E-10 1.42E-9 1.78E-10 1.04E-9 9.16E-10 W 2.59E-10 1.46E-10 6.92E-9 4.03E-1 0 6.4E-10 1.07E-10 1.55E-9 1.33E&9.

Since some values are used from each of the classifications (the lung and remainder factors are class W and the gonad, breast, marrow, bone surface and thyroid are class D), the actual offsite dose calculation will result in a higher (more conservative) dose than if the organ dose conversion factors corresponding to the highest Effective dose conversion factor were used.

2. Elements listed are those considered for 10CFR20 assessment and compliance.

Footnotes:

There are numerous FE and Fu values that were not found In published literature. In these cases, the periodic table was used In conjunction with published values. The periodic table was used based on a general assumption that elements have similar characteristics when In the same column of the periodic table. The values of elements In the same column of the periodic table. excluding atomic numbers 58-71 and 90-103, were averaged then assigned to elements missing values located in the same column of the periodic table. This method was used for all columns where there were missing values except column 3A, where there was no data, hence, the average of column 2B and 4A were used.

1. Values obtained by averaging Reference 6 values of Ca, Sr, Ba and Ra.
2. FE value obtained by assigning the Reference 6 value for I. Fu value obtained by averaging l(Ref. 6) and Br (Ref.16).
3. FE values obtained by averaging Zn (Ref.6) and Pb (Ref. 98); there were novalues for elements in the same column: an average is taken between values of columns 2B and 4A on the periodic table. Fm values obtained by using the value for TI from Reference 16.
4. Values obtained by averaging Reference 6 values of Y and La.
5. Values obtained by assigning the Reference 6 value for Zr.
6. FE values obtained from Ref. 6 value for Nb. Fu values obtained by averaging values for Nb (Ref.6) and Ta (Ref. 16).
7. Values obtained from the Reference 6 values for Pb.
8. Values obtained from the Reference 6 values for Bi.
9. Values obtained from the Reference 6 values for Te.
10. Values obtained from the Reference 6 values for Ni.
11. FE values obtained from Ref. 6 values for Zn. Fu values obtained by averaging the Reference 6 values for Zn and Hg.

NA = It is assumed that noble gases are not accumulated.

In Reference 6. see Table A-1.

A number of bioaccumulation factors could not be found In literature. Inthis case, the periodic table was used Inconjunction with published element values. This method was used for periodic table columns except where there were no values for column 3A so the average of columns 2B and 4A was assigned.

1. Value is the average of Reference 6 values In literature for H.Na. Rb and Cs.
2. Value is the'average of Ref. 6 values in literature for Sr, Ba and Ref. 98 values for Ra.
3. Value is the same as the Reference 6 value used forY.
4. Value is the same as the Reference 6 value used for Zr.
5. Value isthe same as the Reference 6 value used for Nb.
6. Value is the average of Reference 6 values In literature for Mn and Tc.
7. Value is the average of Reference 6 values Inliterature for Fe and Ru.
8. Value isthe average of Reference 6 values Inliterature for Co and Rh.
9. Value Isthe same as the Reference 6 value used for Ni.
10. Value isthe average of Reference 6 values in literature for Cu and Reference 56 value for Ag.
11. Value used is the same as the Reference 6 value used for Zn.
12. Value is the average of Reference 6 value in literature for C and Reference 98 value for Pb.
13. Value is the average of columns 2B and 4A, where column 2B is the "Reference 6 value for Zn" and column 4A is the average of 'Reference 6 value for C and Reference 98 value for Pb".
14. Value is the average of Ref. 6 value found in literature for P and the Ref. 98 values for Bi and Sb.
15. Value is the same as the Reference 6 value used for Te.

DRESDEN Revision 4l October 2003 l CHAPTER 10 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENT TREATMENT AND MONITORING 10.1 AIRBORNE RELEASES 10.1.1 System Description A simplified gaseous radwaste and gaseous effluent flow diagram is provided for Dresden Unit 1 in Figure 10-1 and for Dresden Units 2 and 3 in Figure 10-2. Dresden 1 is no longer operational, but monitoring of potentially radioactive releases from the plant chimney continues.

Each airborne release point is classified as stack, vent, or ground level in accordance with the definitions in Section 4.1.4 and the results in Table A-1 of Appendix A. The principal release points for potentially radioactive airborne effluents and their classifications are as follows:

For Dresden 1:

-- The Chemical Cleaning Building Chimney (a vent release point)

-- The plant chimney (a stack release point).

For Dresden 2/3:

-- The ventilation chimney (a stack release point).

-- The reactor building ventilation stack (a vent release point).

10.1.1.1 Condenser Offgas Treatment System The condenser offgas treatment system is designed and installed to reduce radioactive gaseous effluents by collecting non-condensable off-gases from the condenser and providing for holdup to reduce the total radioactivity by radiodecay prior to release to the environment. The daughter products are retained by charcoal and HEPA filters. The system is described in Section 11.3 of the Dresden UFSAR.

10.1.1.2 Ventilation Exhaust Treatment System Ventilation exhaust treatment systems are designed and installed to reduce gaseous radioiodine or radioactive material in particulate form in selected effluent streams by passing ventilation or vent exhaust gases through charcoal absorbers and/or HEPA filters prior to release to the environment. Such a system is not considered to have any effect on noble gas effluents. The ventilation exhaust treatment systems are shown in Figures 10-1 and 10-2.

Engineered safety features atmospheric cleanup systems are not considered to be ventilation exhaust treatment system components.

dlWR-2.doc 10-1

DRESDEN Revision 4 October 2003 10.1.2 Radiation Monitors 10.1.2.1 Unit 1 Chimney Monitor The SPING continuously monitors the final effluent from the Unit 1 chimney.

The monitor has isokinetic sampling, gaseous grab sampling, and particulate and iodine sampling capability. Tritium samples are obtained using a portable sampling system. A tap is available for obtaining a sample from the isokinetic probe.

In normal operation all three noble gas channels (low, mid-range, high) are on line and active.

No automatic isolation or control functions are performed by this monitor.

10.1.2.2 Units 2/3 Chimney Monitor The SPING continuously monitors the final effluent from the Units 2/3 chimney.

The monitor has isokinetic sampling, gaseous grab sampling, particulate and iodine sampling, and postaccident sampling capability. Tritium samples are obtained using a portable sampling system. A tap is available for obtaining a sample from the isokinetic probe.

In normal operation the two lower noble gas channels (low and mid-range) are on line and active. The high range noble gas channel flow is bypassed and this channel is in standby.

At a predetermined threshold the low and mid-range noble gas channels are bypassed and only the high range noble gas channel remains active.

No automatic isolation or control functions are performed by this monitor. Pertinent information on this monitor is provided in the Dresden UFSAR Section 11.5.

In addition to the primary monitor described above, there is a backup system consisting of two additional detectors and sample taps in series in the primary sample stream.

10.1.2.3 Reactor Building Vent Stack Effluent Monitors The SPING continuously monitors the final effluent from the reactor building vent stack.

The vent stack monitor has isokinetic sampling, gaseous sampling, and iodine and particulate sampling capability. Tritium samples are obtained using a portable sampling system. A tap is available for obtaining a sample from the isokinetic probe.

All channels are continuously on line and active.

No automatic isolation or control functions are performed by this monitor.

dlWR-2.doc 10-2

DRESDEN Revision 4 October 2003 10.1.2.4 Reactor Building Ventilation Monitors The monitor (located in the ventilation exhaust duct) monitors the effluent from the Unit 2(3) reactor building ventilation. On high alarm, the monitors automatically initiate isolation of the Unit 2(3) reactor building ventilation, and initiate startup of the Unit 2/3 standby gas treatment system.

Pertinent information on these monitors is provided in Dresden UFSAR Section 11.5.

10.1.2.5 Condenser Air Ejector Monitors The monitors continuously monitor gross gamma activity downstream of the Unit 2 and 3 steam jet air ejector and prior to release to the main chimney.

At the trip setpoint the monitors automatically activate an interval timer which in turn initiates closure of an air operated valve, thus terminating the release.

Pertinent information on these monitors is found in Dresden UFSAR Section 11.5.

10.1.2.6 Isolation Condenser Vent Monitor The monitor continuously monitors radioactivity in the effluent from the isolation condenser vent. No control device is initiated by this monitor.

Pertinent information on this monitor is provided in Dresden UFSAR Section 11.5.

10.1.2.7 Chemical Cleaning Building Chimney Monitor The monitor has charcoal and particulate filters which are used to sample for iodine and particulates.

No automatic isolation, control functions or alarm functions are performed by this monitor.

10.1.3 Alarm and Trip Setpoints 10.1.3.1 Setpoint Calculations 10.1.3.1.1 Reactor Building Vent Monitors The alarm setpoint for the reactor building vent monitor is established at 10 mr/hr.

10.1.3.1.2 Condenser Air Ejector Monitors The high-high trip setpoint is established at s 100 pCi/Sec per MWt (-2.5E5pCisec) and the high alarm is established at

  • 50ptC/sec per MWt (=_1.25E5pCi/sec).

10.1.3.1.3 Units 2/3 Plant Chimney Radiation Monitor The setpoint is established at a count rate corresponding to no greater than 105,000 pCi/sec.

DRESDEN Revision 4 October 2003 10.1.3.3 Release Mixture In the determination of alarm and trip setpoints the radioactivity mixture in the exhaust air is assumed to have the following compositions.

  • Reactor building vent effluent monitors.

The mixture used for the GE monitors is taken from a representative isotopic analysis of the vent stack noble gas released since the last calibration, or based on nominal response of detector. The 'mixture' used for the SPING is assumed to be a single pseudo-noble gas radionuclide.

  • Condenser air ejector monitor.

The mixture used for this monitor is taken from a representative isotopic analysis of noble gases collected at the recombiner outlet during plant operation, since the last alarm setpoint calculation.

Units 2/3 plant chimney monitors.

The mixture used for the GE monitors is taken from the most recent isotopic analysis of noble gases collected from the chimney monitor which corresponds to an above background recorder reading. The "mixture" used for the SPING is assumed to be a single pseudo-noble gas radionuclide.

10.1.3.4 Conversion Factors The conversion factors used to establish gaseous effluent monitor setpoints are obtained as follows.

Reactor building vent effluent monitor.

For the GE monitors, the isotopic analysis in Section 10.1.3.3 and the monitor reading (in mR/hr) at the time of the analysis or nominal response of detector are used to establish the conversion factor in mR/hr per pCi/cc or pCi/ft3. For the SPING the conversion factor is based on the 0.8 MeV gamma of the pseudo-noble gas radionuclide.

Condenser air ejector monitor.

The isotopic analysis in Section 10.1.3.3 and the flow and monitor reading (in mR/hr) at the time of the analysis are used to establish the conversion factor in mR/hr per pCicc or pCi/ft3.

Units 2/3 plant chimney monitors For the GE monitors, the isotopic analysis in Section 10.1.3.3 and flow and monitor reading (in CPS) at the time of the analysis are used to establish the conversion.

factor in CPS per pCicc or pCi/ft 3 . For the SPING the conversion factor is based on the 0.8 MeV gamma of the pseudo-noble gas radionuclide.

DRESDEN -. Revision 4 October 2003 10.1.3.5 HVAC Flow Rates The HVAC exhaust flow rates are obtained from either the Units 2/3 process computers or the SPING control station. For the 2/3 Chimney, additional process flow rates must be added to obtain the total chimney flow (see Figure 10-2). Unit operation may affect actual flow rates which therefore may differ from values listed. If the actual flows are not available, -

the following default values based on design flow can be used:

Units 2/3 Chimney Air Flow 1.25E1 0 cc/min Units 2/3 Combined Reactor Vent 6.23E9 cc/min Unit 1 Chimney Air Flow 9.46E8 cc/min Unit 1 Chemical Cleaning Chimney Air Flow 1.61 E9 cc/min 10.1.4 Allocation of Effluents from Common Release Points Radioactive particulates and iodine released from the Unit 1 Chemical Cleaning Chimney originate from the Chemical Cleaning Building and Interim Radwaste Storage Facility.

Radioactive gases, particulates, and iodines released from the Unit 1 chimney originate from Unit 1 only. However, radioactive gaseous effluents released from Units 2/3 are comprised of contributions from both units. Estimates of noble gas contributions from Units 2 and 3 are allocated considering appropriate operating conditions and measured SJAE off-gas activities. Allocation of radioiodine and radioactive particulate releases to Units 2 or 3 specifically is not as practical and is influenced greatly by in-plant leakage. Under normal operating conditions, allocation is made using reactor coolant iodine activities. During unit shutdowns or periods of known major in-plant leakage, the apportionment is adjusted accordingly. The allocation of effluents is estimated on a monthly basis.

10.1.5 Dose Projections Because the gaseous releases are continuous, the doses are routinely calculated in accordance with the RETS.

10.2 LIQUID RELEASES 10.2.1 System Description A simplified liquid radwaste and liquid effluent flow diagram is provided in Figure 10-3.

The liquid radwaste treatment system is designed and installed to reduce radioactive liquid effluents by collecting the liquids, providing for retention or holdup, and providing for treatment by evaporator, demineralizer, filter, and further vendor processing systems for the purpose of reducing the total radioactivity prior to reuse or release to the environment. The system is described in the Dresden UFSAR Section 11.2.

10.2.1.1 Unit 1 Storage Tanks Liquid radioactive effluents are not released from Unit 1 Storage tanks directly to the environment but are made through the Units 2/3 radwaste system.

10.2.1.2 Units 2/3 Waste Sample Tanks There are three waste sample tanks (33,000 gallons each) which receive water from the liquid waste treatment system. These tanks are transferred to the waste surge tank for discharge to the Illinois River via the discharge canal.

dl Or2-2.doc 10-6

DRESDEN Revision 4 l October 2003 l 10.2.1.3 Units 2/3 Floor Drain Sample Tanks There are two floor drain sample tanks (22,000 gallons each) which receive liquid waste from the floor drain treatment system. These tanks are transferred to the waste surge tank or discharged to the Illinois River via the discharge canal.

10.2.1.4 Units 2/3 Waste Surge Tank The waste surge tank receives processed water from the waste sample tanks and floor drain sample tanks. This tank discharges to the Illinois River via the discharge canal.

10.2.2 Radiation Monitors 10.2.2.1 Liquid Radwaste Effluent Monitor The monitor is used to monitor releases from the waste surge tank, floor drain sample tanks or portable waste treatment system tanks. On high alarm, a grab sample of the effluent is automatically taken from the discharge side of the sample chamber after a 0 to 60 second delay determined by a locally mounted timer. The release is terminated manually by initiating closure of the low flow or high flow discharge line valves.

-Pertinent information on the monitor and associated control devices is provided in the Dresden UFSAR Section 11.5.

10.2.2.2 Units 2 & 3 Service Water Effluent Monitors The monitors continuously monitor the service water effluent. On high alarm a grab sample is taken.

Pertinent information on these monitors is provided in the Dresden UFSAR Section 11.5..

DRESDEN Revision 4 October 2003 10.2.3 Alarm and Trip Setpoints 10.2.3.1 Setpoint Calculations Alarm and trip setpoints of liquid effluent monitors at the principal release points are established to ensure that the limits of 10CFR20 are not exceeded in the unrestricted area.

10.2.3.1.1 Liquid Radwaste Effluent Monitor The monitor setpoint is found by solving equation 10-3 for the total isotopic activity.

DRESDEN Revision 4 October 2003 10.2.3.1.2 Units 2 & 3 Service Water Effluent Monitor The monitor setpoint is established at two times the background radiation value.

10.2.3.2 Discharge Flow Rates 10.2.3.2.1 Release Tank Discharge Flow Rate Prior to each batch release, a grab sample is obtained.

The results of the analysis of the sample determine the discharge rate of each batch as follows:

dlWr2-2.doc 10-9

DRESDEN Revision 4 October 2003 10.2.3.3 Release Limits Release limits are determined from 10CFR20. Calculated maximum permissible discharge rates are divided by 5 to ensure that applicable derived water concentrations (DWC) (Maximum Permissible Concentration (MPC)) are not exceeded.

10.2.3.4 Release Mixture For the liquid radwaste effluent monitor, the release mixture used for the setpoint determination is the radionuclide mix identified in the grab sample isotopic analysis.

For all other liquid effluent monitors, no release mixture is used because the setpoint is established at "two times background.'

10.2.3.5 Conversion Factors The readout for the liquid radwaste effluent monitor is in CPM. The calibration constant is based on the detector sensitivity to Co-60.

The readouts for the Units 2 & 3 service water effluent monitors are in PCiml. The calibration constants are based on the detector sensitivity to Co-60.

10.2.3.6 Liquid Dilution Flow Rates The dilution flow is determined using the installed flowmeter in the discharge canal.

10.2.4 Allocation of Effluents from Common Release Points Radioactive liquid effluents released from the release tanks are comprised of contributions from all three units. Under normal operating conditions, it is difficult to apportion the radioactivity between the units. Consequently, allocation is normally made evenly between units 2 and 3.

10.2.5 Projected Doses for Releases Doses due to liquid effluents are calculated in accordance with the RETS.

10.3 SOLIDIFICATION OF WASTE/PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM The process control program (PCP) contains the sampling, analysis, and formulation determination by which solidification of radioactive wastes from liquid systems is ensured.

Figure 10-4 is a simplified diagram of solid radwaste processing.

DRESDEN Revision 2 October 2003 Table 11-1 (Cont'd)

Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program Far field samples are analyzed when near field results are inconsistent with previous measurements and radioactivity, is confirmed as having its origin in airborne effluents released from the station, or at the discretion of the Radiation Protection Director.

2 Airborne particulate sample filters shall be analyzed for gross beta radioactivity 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or more after sampling to allow for radon and thoron daughter decay. If gross beta activity in air particulate samples is greater than 10 times the yearly mean of control samples, gamma isotopic analysis shall be performed on the individual samples.

3 Gamma isotopic analysis means the identification and quantification of gamma emitting radionuclides that may be attributable to the effluents from the station.-

1-131 analysis means the analytical separation and counting procedure are specific for this radionuclide.

5 The fish monitoring locations are not identified exactly on the map. The points, D-28 and D-46, represent the general area where the samples are taken.

6- Distances provided for sampling/monitor locations are approximate.

7- The analysis requirements listed are for the REMP-required samples only. The special samples require only quarterly gamma isotopic analyses on the composite filters.

8 These sampling locations do not constitute REMP samples, but are special samples required per Section 11.5.1.10 of the UFSAR. They may be discontinued pending revision of the aforementioned section.

9 Illinois River dredge spoils sampling is not required if dredging within 1 mile of Dresden Station river discharge point has not occurred since last sample collection. Individual areas where spoils are deposited do not require sampling if no additions were made to that area since last sample collection.

The Channel Calibration shall encompass the entire channel, including the required sensor, alarm, display and trip -

functions, and shall include the Channel Functional Test. Calibration of instrument channels with resistance temperature detector (RTD) or thermocouple sensors may consist of an inplace qualitative assessment of sensor behavior and normal calibration of the remaining adjustable devices in the channel. The Channel Calibration may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps so that the entire channel is calibrated.

2. Channel Check - A Channel Check shall be a qualitative assessment, by observation, of channel behavior during operation. This determination shall include, where possible, comparison of the channel indication and status to other indications or status derived from independent instrument channels measuring the same parameter.
3. Channel Functional Test - A Channel Functional Test shall be the injection of a simulated or actual signal into the channel as close to the sensor as practicable to verify Operability, including required alarm, interlock, display, and trip functions, and channel failure trips.

The Channel Functional Test may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total channel steps so that the entire channel is tested.

4. Continuous Samplina - Uninterrupted sampling with the exception of sampling interruptions of short duration (no longer than 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br />) for required surveillances.
5. Dose Equivalent 1-131 - That concentration of 1-131 (microcuries/gram) that alone would produce the same thyroid dose as the quantity and isotopic mixture of 1-131, 1-132,1-133, 1-134, and 1-135 actually present. The thyroid dose conversion factors used for this calculation shall be those listed in Table Ill of TID -14844, AEC, 1962", Calculation of Distance Factors for Power and Test Reactor Sites"; Table E-7 of Regulatory Guide 1.109, Rev. 1, NRC, 1977; or ICRP 30, Supplement to Part 1, pages 192-212, Table titled,

RADIOACTIVE LIQUID WASTE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM TABLE NOTATION

'1) The LLD is defined, for purposes of these specifications, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a 'real' signal.

For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation:

LLD = 4.665b E*Ve2.22 x 106 - Y* exp (-XAt)

Where:

LLD = the lower limit of detection (microCuries per unit mass or volume),

Sb = the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (counts per minute),

E = the counting efficiency (counts per disintegration),

V = the sample size (units of mass or volume),

2.22 x 106 = the number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie, Y = the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, X= the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec 1), and At = the elapsed time between the midpoint of sample collection and the time of counting (sec).

Typical values of E, V, Y, and At should be used in the calculation.

Alternate LLD Methodology An alternate methodology for LLD determination follows and is similar to the above LLD equation:

(2.71 + 4.654B). Decay LLD=

E q b Y t (2.22E06)

DN12Rev3.doc 12-26

DRESDEN Revision 5 l October 2003 TABLE 12.3-2 (Continued)

RADIOACTIVE LIQUID WASTE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM TABLE NOTATION Where:

B = background sum (counts)

E = counting efficiency, (counts detected/disintegrations) q = sample quantity, (mass or volume) b = abundance, (if applicable)

Y = fractional radiochemical yield or collection efficiency, (if applicable) t = count time (minutes) 2.22E06 = number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie (2.71 + 4.654B) = k2 + (2k v 2 -i B), and k = 1.645.

(k=value of the t statistic from the single-tailed t distribution at a significance level of 0.95% and infinite degrees of freedom. This means that the LLD result represents a 95% detection probability with a 5% probability of falsely concluding that the nuclide present when it is not or that the nuclide is not present when it is.)

Decay = et [XRT/(1 -e )] [XTd /(1 -eTdl, (if applicable) x = radioactive decay constant, (units consistent with At, RT and TdO At = "delta t", or the elapsed time between sample collection or the midpoint of sample collection and the time the count is started, depending on the type of sample, (units consistent with X)

RT = elapsed real time, or the duration of the sample count, (units consistent with X)

Td = sample deposition time, or the duration of analyte collection onto the sample media, (unit consistent with X)

The LLD may be determined using installed radioanalytical software, if available. In addition to determining the correct number of channels over which to total the background sum, utilizing the software's ability to perform decay corrections (i.e. during sample collection, from sample collection to start of analysis and during counting), this alternate method will result in a more accurate determination of the LLD.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a before the fact limit and not as an after the fact limit for a particular measurement.

DRESDEN Revision 5 October 2003 I TABLE 12.3-2 (Cont'd)

RADIOACTIVE LIQUID WASTE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM TABLE NOTATION (2) A composite sample is one in which the quantity of liquid samples 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.

If the alarm setpoint of the service water effluent monitor as determined in the ODCM is exceeded, the frequency of analysis shall be increased to daily until the condition no longer exists.

(4) A batch release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a discrete volume. Prior to sampling for analyses, each batch shall be isolated and then thoroughly mixed to assure representative sampling. A continuous release is the discharge of liquid wastes of a nondiscrete volume; e.g.,

from a volume or system that has an input flow during the release.

(5) The principal gamma emitters for which the LLD specification applies exclusively are the following radionuclides: Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-60, Zn-65, Co-58, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141. Ce-144 shall also be measured, but with an LLD of 5E-06.

'1) The LLD is defined, for purposes of these specifications, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation:

LLD = 4.66Sh E

  • V 2.22 x 106 Y - exp (-XAt)

Where:

LLD = the lower limit of detection (microCuries per unit mass or volume),

Sb= the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample as appropriate (counts per minute),

E = the counting efficiency (counts per disintegration),

V = the sample size (units of mass or volume),

2.22 x 106 = the number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie, Y = the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, X= the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec '), and At = the elapsed time between the midpoint of sample collection and the time of counting (sec).

Typical values of E, V, Y, and At should be used in the calculation.

Alternate LLD Methodology An alternate methodology for LLD determination follows and is similar to the above LLD equation:

(2.71 + 4.654B)- Decay LLD =

E q b Y.t (2.22E06)

RADIOACTIVE GASEOUS WASTE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROGRAM TABLE NOTATIONS Where:

B = background sum (counts)

E = counting efficiency, (counts detected/disintegrations) q = sample quantity, (mass or volume) b = abundance, (if applicable)

Y = fractional radiochemical yield or collection efficiency, (if applicable) t = count time (minutes) 2.22E06 = number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie (2.71 + 4.6541B) = k2 + (2k 1 2 v B), and k = 1.645.

(k=value of the t statistic from the single-tailed t distribution at a significance level of 0.95% and infinite degrees of freedom. This means that the LLD result represents a 95% detection probability with a 5% probability of falsely concluding that the nuclide present when it is not or that the nuclide is not present when it is.)

Decay = e>' [XRT/(1 -eART)] [XTd /(1 -e lTd)], (if applicable)

X = radioactive decay constant, (units consistent with At, RT and Td)

At = "delta t", or the elapsed time between sample collection or the midpoint of sample collection and the time the count is started, depending on the type of sample, (units consistent with X)

RT = elapsed real time, or the duration of the sample count, (units consistent with X)

Td = sample deposition time, or the duration of analyte collection onto the sample media, (unit consistent with X)

The LLD may be determined using installed radioanalytical software, if available. In addition to determining the correct number of channels over which to total the background sum, utilizing the software's ability to perform decay corrections (i.e. during sample collection, from sample collection to start of analysis and during counting), this alternate method will result in a more accurate determination of the LLD.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a before the fact limit and not as an after the fact limit for a particular measurement.

1. Gaseous Effluents, Dose This Section is provided to ensure that the dose at the unrestricted area boundary from gaseous effluents from the units on site will be within the annual dose limits of 10CFR20 for unrestricted areas. 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 concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table 2 of 10CFR20.1001-2402. The 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 less than or equal to 500 mremlyear to the total body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin. These release rate limits also restrict, at all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background via the inhalation pathway to less than or equal to 1500 mremlyear. For purposes of calculation doses resulting from airborne releases, the main chimney is considered to be an elevated release point and the reactor building vent stack is considered to be a mixed mode release point.
2. Dose. Noble Gases This Section is provided to implement the requirements of Sections ll.B, IIL.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The Operability Requirements implement the guides set forth in Section 11.3 of Appendix I. The 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 lll.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I is to be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of an individual through the appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated.

The dose calculations established in the ODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive noble gases in gaseous effluents will be consistent with 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 1.1 11, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water Cooled Reactors," Revision 1, July 1977.

NUREG-0133 provides methods for dose calculations consistent with Regulatory Guides 1.1 09 and 1.111.

3. Dose. Radioiodines. Radioactive Material in Particulate Form and Radionuclides Other than Noble Gases This Section is provided to implement the requirements of Sections I1.C, IIL.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50. The Operability Requirements are the guides set forth in Section IL.C of Appendix I. The 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 materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as reasonably achievable." The ODCM calculational methods specified in the surveillance requirements implement the requirements in Section IIL.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 ODCM calculational methods approved by NRC for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of the subject materials are required to be consistent with 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 1.1 11, "Methods for Estimating Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion of Gaseous Effluents in Routine Releases from Light-Water-Cooled Reactors,"

Revision 1, July 1977. These equations also provide for determining the actual doses based upon the historical average atmospheric conditions. The release rate limits 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 limits were: 1) individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, 2) deposition of radionuclides onto green leafy vegetation with subsequent consumption by man and 3) deposition onto grassy areas where milk animals graze with consumption of the milk by man.

4. Gaseous Waste Treatment The operability of the gaseous waste treatment which reduces amounts or concentrations of radioactive materials 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 operable when specified provides reasonable assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as reasonably achievable". This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, and design objective Section ll.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.

DRESDEN Revision 5 October 2003 12.5 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM (Continued) 12.5.1.A.3. If the sample type or sampling location(s) as required by Table 12.5-1 become(s) permanently unavailable, identify suitable alternative sampling media for the pathway of interest and/or specific locations for obtaining replacement samples and add them to the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program as soon as practicable. The specific locations from which samples were unavailable may then be deleted from the monitoring program.

Prepare and submit controlled version of the ODCM within 180 days including a revised figure(s) and table reflecting the new location(s) with supporting information identifying the cause of the unavailability of samples and justifying the selection of new location(s) for obtaining samples.

Surveillance Requirements 12.5.11.B The radiological environmental monitoring program samples shall be collected pursuant to Table 12.5-1 from the specific locations given in the table and figure(s) in the ODCM, and shall be analyzed pursuant to the requirements of Table 12.5-1 and the detection capabilities required byTable 12.5-3.

Bases 12.5.1.C The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program required by this section provides representative measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides that lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program implementsSection IV.B.2 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 and th6reby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and the modeling of the environmental.

exposure pathways. Guidance for this monitoring program is provided by the Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position on Environmental Monitoring. The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least the first 3 years of commercial operation. Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The required detection capabilities for environmental sample analyses are tabulated in terms of the lower limits of detection (LLDs). The LLDs required by Table 12.5-3 are considered optimum for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories. It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a before the fact limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an after the fact limit for a particular measurement.

Detailed discussion of the LLD, and other detection limits, can be found in HASL Procedures Manual, HASL-300 (revised annually), Currie, LA., "Limits for Qualitative Detection and Quantitative Determination - Application to Radiochemistry," Anal. Chem.

October 1978, and to Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position, Revision 1, November 1979.

(2) Far field samples are analyzed when the respective near field sample results are inconsistent with previous measurements and radioactivity is confirmed as having its origin in airborne effluents from the station, or at the discretion of the Radiation Protection Director.

(3) Airborne particulate sample filters shall be analyzed for gross beta radioactivity 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> or more after sampling to allow for radon and thoron daughter decay. 'If gross beta activity in air particulate samples is greater than 10 times the yearly mean of control samples, gamma isotopic analysis shall be performed on the individual samples.

(4) Gamma isotopic analysis means the identification and quantification of gamma emitting radionuclides that may be attributable to the effluents from the station.

(5) One or more instruments, such as a pressurized ion chamber, for measuring and recording dose rate continuously may be used in place of, or in addition to, integrating dosimeters. Film badges shall not be used as dosimeters for measuring direct radiation.

The 40 locations is not an absolute number. The number of direct radiation monitoring stations may be reduced according to geographical limitations; e.g., If a station is adjacent to a lake, some sectors may be over water thereby reducing the number of dosimeters which could be placed at the indicated distances. The frequency of analysis or readout for TLD systems will depend upon the characteristics of the specific system used and should be selected to obtain optimum dose information with minimal fading.

(6) Groundwater samples shall be taken when this source is tapped for drinking or irrigation purposes in areas where the hydraulic gradient or recharge properties are suitable for contamination.

(7) The downstream" sample shall be taken in an area beyond but near the mixing zone.

The "upstream sample" shall be taken at a distance beyond significant influence of the discharge. Upstream samples in an estuary must be taken far enough upstream to be beyond the station influence.

(8) If milking animals are not found in the designated indicator locations, or if the owners decline to participate in the REMP, all milk sampling may be discontinued.

(9) Biweekly refers to every two weeks.

(10) 1-131 analysis means the analytical separation and counting procedure are specific for this radionuclide.

Other peaks that are identifiable, together with those of the above nuclides, shall also be analyzed and reported in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

(2) Required detection capabilities for thermoluminescent dosimeters used for environmental measurements shall be in accordance with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 4.13.

(3) The Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) is defined, for purposes of these specifications, as the smallest concentration of radioactive material in a sample that will yield a net count, above system background, that will be detected with 95% probability with only 5% probability of falsely concluding that a blank observation represents a "real" signal.

For a particular measurement system, which may include radiochemical separation, the LLD is defined as follows:

4. 6 6 Sb + 3/tb LLD =

(E) (V) (2.22) (Y) (exp (-At))

4.66 Sb LLD -

(E) (V) (2.22) (Y) (exp (-XAt))

Where: 4.66 Sb >> 3/tb LLD = the "a priori" Minimum Detectable Concentration (picoCuries per unit mass or volume),

Sb = the standard deviation of the background counting rate or of the counting rate of a blank sample, as appropriate (counts per minute),

,ITotal Counts

= tb E = the counting efficiency(counts per disintegration),

V = the sample size (units of mass or volume),

2.22 = the number of disintegrations per minute per.picoCurie, Y = the fractional radiochemical yield, when applicable, X = the radioactive decay constant for the particular radionuclide (sec'),

DETECTION CAPABILITIES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLE ANALYSIS TABLE NOTATIONS

- tb = counting time of the background or blank (minutes), and at = the elapsed time between sample collection, or end of the sample collection period, and the time of counting (sec).

Typical values of E, V, Y, and at should be used in the calculation.

It should be recognized that the LLD is defined as a before the fact limit representing the capability of a measurement system and not as an after the fact limit for a particular measurement.

Analyses shall be performed in such a manner that the stated LLDs will be achieved under routine conditions.

Occasionally, background fluctuations, unavoidable small sample sizes, the presence of interfering nuclides, or other uncontrollable circumstances may render these LLDs unachievable. In such cases, the contributing factors shall be identified and described in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report.

Alternate LLD Methodoloav An alternate methodology for LLD determination follows and is similar to the above LLD equation:

(2.71 + 4.654B)- Decay LLD =

E q b Y t (2.22E06)

Where:

B = background sum (counts)

E = counting efficiency, (counts detected/disintegrations) q = sample quantity, (mass or volume) b = abundance, (if applicable)

Y = fractional radiochemical yield or collection efficiency, (if applicable) t = count time (minutes) 2.22E06 = number of disintegrations per minute per microCurie (2.71 + 4.654B) = k2 + (2k 4 2 4 B), and k = 1.645.

(k=value of the t statistic from the single-tailed t distribution at a significance level of 0.95% and infinite degrees of freedom. This means that the LLD result represents a 95%1o detection probability with a 5% probability of falsely concluding that the nuclide present when it is not or that the nuclide is not present when it is.)

Decay = eA' [XRT/(1 -e-flT)] [XTd/(1 -e 'Td)], (if applicable)

RT = elapsed real time, or the duration of the sample count, (units consistent with %)

Td = sample deposition time, or the duration of analyte collection onto the sample media, (unit consistent with X)

The LLD may be determined using installed radioanalytical software, if available. In addition to determining the correct number of channels over which to total the background sum, utilizing the software's ability to perform decay corrections (i.e. during sample collection, from sample collection to start of analysis and during counting), this alternate method will result in a more accurate determination of the LLD.

These parameters-are used to obtain an initial estimate of skyshine dose to the maximally exposed member of the public using Equation A-34 in Appendix A. If desired, more realistic parameters could be used in place of these to refine the estimate. For example, one could determine whether the nearest resident really fishes the specified number of hours at the specified location.

a The amount of time in a year that a maximally exposed fisherman would spend fishing near the site is estimated as 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> per week for 8 months per year. This yields an estimate of:

b Distance to nearest residence (See Table F-3).

C Estimated from a drawing of the site.

d The OFk is the quotient of the number of hours a location is occupied and the number of hours in a year.
