i 1.0 PUPPOSE In the event of an accidental radielegical release frem a nuclear power i

plant, radienuclides may te released to the environment. fer raciolegical emergency planning purposes, censideration is given to two exposure pathways.

The plume exposure pathway is, by federal guidance, a ten-mile radius around 2 nuclear power plant.

The principal exposures from this pathway are I1) whole tody exposure to gamma radiation frem the plume and depositec material, and,

(2) inhalation exposure frem the passing radioactive plume. The ingestion exposure pathway is, by federal guidance, a 50-mile radius around a nuclear facility.

The principal exposure of this pathway is through the ingestien of centaminated foods, such as milk, fresh vegetables, or aquatic foodstuffs.

The Massachusetts Radiological Emergency Response Plan (RERP) describes response activities and protective actions for the plume exposure pathway.

The purpese of this Ingestien Pathway Plan is to delineate accident assessment responsibilities and establish policy and procedures for implementing I

protective actions to minimize the effects on the health of the public.

31 Emergenev Planning 2:nes "he basis fer emergency planning fer nuclear power plants is found in NUREC-055D, f!MA-REP-1, " Criteria for Preparatien and Evaluation of Radi:1cgical I:.ergency Pesponse Plans and Preparedness in Suppert cf Nuclear P;wer Plants." This document describes the plans, persenne?

facilities, an:

equipment which must be in place in order to develop a satisfactory emergency response plan.

NUREG-0658, in turn, was based en earlier studies, including WASH-1200, "Reacter Safety Study," and NUREG-0396, EPA 520/1-78-016. " Planning Basis ter the Oevelepsent of State and Local Government Radiological Emergency Respense Plans in Support of Light Water Nuclear Power Plants." NUREG-0306 defines and descrites the basis for the 10-mile Plume Expesure Pathway Emergency Planning Zene and the 50 mile Ingestion Exposure Pathway Erergency Planning *cne, 3.2 Protective Action criteria O.e potential radiological effects frem ingestion pathway exposure are reduced as distance is increased.

Because the routes of ingestien are not as direct as those of the plume exposure pathway, immediate protective actions ars not required.

• he principal exposure from the ingestion pathway may occur through the censumption of contaminated food, water, and/or milk. Necessary protective measures and public concern may require modification of the 3-1

Paga 9 of 172 productien, precessing, and marketing cycle of centaminated products within the affected areas. There may be variances in depositi:n and uptake within the ingestien ;athway which may retuire detailed fit}d menit: ring.

In I

L general, there are a nutter Of nuclides which may te releasec in a reacter accident, thougn the prede inating nuclides fer the ingestien pathway en a a

long-term basis (up to several days) are censidered to be radictedines.

This is particularly true in that as distance is increased from the plant, particulates, if any, would fall eut or wash out fr m the plume relatively close to the site of release.

I G

in genera', three ingestien pathways will te censidered in this emergency plan:

11k, food, and water.

I Potentially, the most critical ingestien pathway is the milk o

pathway (pasture-cow-milk-processor-distributor. consumer) because of the potential effects of radiciodines en infants, the most i

rad 1: sensitive pertien of the populati:n.

I The water pathway may include water supply intakes, reservoirs, and o

water treatment plants.

1 "he food pathway may involve fruit, vegetabJes, and crops grown o

within the affected area, as well as the transporters, processers, and distributors of their products.

The food and milk pathways may involve small family farms that produce for themselves and distribute to the local market only, as well as large commercial farms, whose production is processed in many locations and delivered to widely dispersed consumers out of state.

.I in general, the C:mmenwealth of Massachusetts has the respensibility ::

initiate protective actions in the event that a radiolegical incident causes I -

radicactive centaminati:n cf f:ed, water. Or milk.

To pr: vide guidance en appreitriate planning f:r such protective actions, the Feed anc Orug Administratien (TOA) published recommendatiens in the Federal Fegister Of October 22, icB2 cencerning emergency acticn levels ter dealing with I

accidental radicactive centaminatien of food, wa'ter, and milk suppliese I

• he Cemmenwealth of Massachusetts has adopted the TOA's recommentatiens in determining the levels and types of' protective acticns.

l The FOA's guidance reccamends two levels of protective response which apply to all food pathways:

I 1

Preventive Pretective Actions - Actions taken by farmers (or I

1 others) to prevent centamination of milk, water, and/or f0cd products.

2.

Emertenev Protective Actions - Actions taken by public officials to divert milk water, and food products from animal and human consumption or to destroy these products.

I "te decision to take preventive protective actions generally will be based en projected concentrations in the environment, whereas, the decision to take emergency protective actions should be based on actual radiological measurements in the pathway Of concern.

Each of the above protective responses has concentration values associated with them a3 indicated en Tables 3-1, 3 2, and 3-3.

Emergency Response Facilities utilized in the Ingestien Exposure Pathway are described in this section.

l f.1 State Emerrency Operatiens Center I

t "he State Emergency 0;erations Center (E00), located at.MOOA/CEP Headquarters at 400 Worcester Read in Framingham, serves as the ccamand and control center for off-site emergency response.

i, I

• he State EOC is capable of continuous (24-hour) operati0ns for a protra.cted peried. The center contains sufficient communications ' radio, telephone, and teletype) equipment, maps, emergency plans, and status boards to provide the necessary interface with other state, local, federal, and l

utility emergency facilities. State agencies having emergency functions will l

I provide representatives to the State EOC upon its activatien.

l 5.2 Utility's Emergency Ooerations Facility The utility's Emergency Operations Facility (EOF) serves as a base of operations for radiological assessment as well as overall emergency response -

SECTION 6 5

6.0 PROTIOT!?! ?!!p0NSE Protective actions for the ingestien exposure pathway are designed to minimize opportunities for the human consumption of radiologically contaminated m4terial.

Actions are appropriate when the health benefit

-associated with the achievable reduction in dose outweighs the undesirable I

i health, economic, and social factors.

It is the intent of this section to outline protective acti:ns which should be considered for implementatien in I

order to reduce the consequences in the ingestion pathway if the preventive or emergency response levels are exceeded.

Several of the actions identified in l '

Sections.6.5.1 and 5.5.2 are easily implemented and may be considered for implementation as precautionary measures during the time period when post-plume data is being evaluated, or when it is reasonable to assume frem early field data that the level of radioactive material in the environment is L

likely to approach or exceed the response levels.

It is recommended that once l '

protective actions are initiated, they continue for a time period sufficient.

I to mitigate the radiological consequences via the ingestion pathway, i

L Preventive protective actions and emergency protective actions, listed in Section 6.5, will be considered for implementation if measured concentrations of radionuclides approach those given in Tables 6-1 and 6-2, i

i i

respectively.

Preventive protective actions and emergency protective actions will be implemented if the measured concentrations meet or exceed those given in Tables 6-1 and 6-2, respectively.

./

6-1 s

X Page 27 of 172 Preventive or emergency protective actions will te implemented, as appropriate, if the prefected total intake exceeds-the total intake values fer the radi:nuclides listed in Tables 6 1 er 6-2.

The Direct:r of the Radiati:n L.

Centrol Pr: gram er designee will perform the procedure fer estimating

=

prefected t:tal intake as part of formulating protective actien recommendations for the ingestien pathway.

Th,e prefected t:tal intake is equal to the sum of the projected intakes for a radienuclide for all food j

items in which that radionuclide has been measured.

The projected intake fer a specific food item is equal to the product of the measured concentration of the radienuclide in the f:cd item, the average daily censumptien rate fer the food item (refer to Table 6-3), and the estimated days of intake.

I measured average daily estimated time-projected a concentration x

consumption x of intake days TCi/Kg rate, kg/ day l

The estimated time of intake should consider the specific food item, the food distribution system (retail market versus home use), and the half-life of the radienuclide.

6.1 Milk Centrol Preventing contamination of milk is an important element of the ingestion pathway protective actions.

Actions for controlling consumption of 6-2 1

Paga 28 of-172

-j i

-contaminated milk are classified as preventive or emergency protective i

actions.

Preventive protective actions include two approaches.

One involves protecting animal feed and cedering dairy farmers to use only stored read.

i rather than grazing the herd on contaminated pasture.

Osiry animals sneuld te i

sheltered when placed en stored feed during an emergency.

'"he second preventive protective action is applied to contaminated milk.

It involves delaying its release to market or diverting it to other i

uses.

In addition to the above, emergency protective actions may require cendemning and destroying milk supplies to prevent distribution to the market.

i As recommended by MDPH, centrol of milk will be implemented by the MDFA by direct contact with the dairy farm owners / operators.

1.ists of commercial dairy operations within Massachusetts are maintained by the MOFA.. Copies of these lists are maintained at the MDPH Offices on 'l'rement Street, Besten and at tht. State EOC.

'.2 Water Centrol Water supplies that receive a major portion of their water from the watershed surrounding the affected nuclear power plant will be the focus of protective actions for water control.

As necessary, the MDECE will direct the control of use of water from potentially contaminated public surface water supplies within the Ingestion Exposure EP?..

Public surface water supplies can 3

be quarantined until testing for radioactivity levels can be undertaken to confirm or refute the need for control.

Wells and groundwater sources are not likely to be contaminated but may be tested.

I 63 I

Paga 29 of=172 l-o F. 3 Feed Centrol Field and erchard crops er other feeds may be centaminated by deposition frem the radioactive p1,.ime.

These foods may be stered unti? the radioactivity has decayed or has been treated.

I 1ists of the commercial agricultural facilities within the Ingestien Exposure Pathway EP2s tre maintained by the MDFA.

Copies of these lists are maintained at the MDPH Offices on Tremont Street, Boston and at the State TOC.

I Maps fer recording Ingestien Pathway data, including locatiens of the key land use, agricultural facilities, water supply location, and related informatien are kept at the State EOC, at the utility's EOF, and at MDPH

.0ffices in Boston. ~hese maps are used to identify areas and facilities where protective actions may be necessary and for recording survey and monitering

5.3 Decisien Precess fer Selection of Pretective Actiens for Ingestien Pathway Excesures I

To facilitate rapid decision making, a precalculated radioactivity level, or " response level" which corresponds to the Protective Action Guide (PAG) for a particular food pathway, is used. This level is the amount of radioactivity in food, water, or animal feed that would ultimately result in i

exceeding the PAG if the contaminated food were consumed by humans. For example, if the level of Iodine-131 on a pasture exceeds the response level, the human dose resulting from the pasture-animal-milk pathway would exceed the l~

The following discussion traces the five-step decisien process for ingestien pathway exposure.

To facilitate understanding, Figure 6-1 describes this procedure by means of a flow chart.

!nput consists of advisories frem the utility,~

meteorologica1' data, weather conditions, and field measurements.

This data is-used to calculate' projected intake.

If the answer is "no", protective actions for the ingestion pathway are not required.

However, the need for protective I

actions will continue to be evaluated over the course of the incident.

!f the answer is "yes", proceed to the next decision step.

I Step 2 - Determine whether a preventive PAG may be exceeded for milk, other foods, or water. This entails comparing measured or projected radioactivity levels with response levels for the appropriate food group.

If' the response level is approached, then preventive action will be considered.

If the response level is met or exceeded, preventive actions will be implemented.

Steo ? - Preventive actions for milk, other foods, and water will be implemented. The appropriate state agency will control the ingestible

The determination is based f.rst en a comparison of projected radicactivity levels t the emergency response levels.

!f projections indicate a ;ctential f:r exceeding emergency response levels, protective S

actions =ay te i:;1teented.

2 9teo E - Tupport agencies will implement emergency protective actions as appropriate.

Sampling and analyses of milk, other foods, and water will continue to determine the levels of radioactive contamination.

!f field data confic= predicted centamination, condemnation of these consumables =ay be ordered.

if field data anow levels below the appropriate response levels, state centrol of the ingestible material may be relinquished.

I 5.5 Protective Actions To facilitate protective action decision making, the procedure, ingestion Pathway Protective Actions (Exhibit 2), has been developed and should be utilized as needed.

The Director of the Radiation Control Program er designee is responsible for implementing the precedure for Ingestion Pathway Protective Actions.

Provide animals with source of covered uncontaminated water.

Oo not use surface waters.

For Milk - Withhold contaminated milk from the market to allow radicactive decay of short-lived radionuclides.

This may te achieved by storage of frc:en fresh milk, frozen concentrated milk, er frc:en concentrated milk products.

I Storage for prolonged times at reduced temperatures is also feasible provided ultrahigh temperature pasteurization techniques are employed for processing.

For F-uits and Veretables - Wash, brush, scrub, or peel to remove surface contamination.

Preserve by canning, freezing, and dehydration or storage to permit radioactive decay of short-lived radionuclides.

For Grains - Mill and polish.

-l For Drinking Water - Avoid use of surface water (streams, lakes, ponds) for human and animal consumption.

For Other Fred Products - Process to remove surface contaminatien.

For Meat and Meat Products - Intake of Cesium-134 and fesium-1?" by an adult via the meat pathway may exceed that of the milk pathway; therefere, levels of cesium in mi?k which approach the " response level" should cause surveillance and protective actions for meat as apprcpriate.

I Fer Animal Feed other "'han Pasture - Action should be on a case-by-case basis taking into censideration the relationship between the radi0nuclide concentration in the animal feed and the concentrati n Of the racionuclide in human food.

I 1

i For Fish and Shellfish - Suspend fishing operations of commercial fish firms and charter fishing boats until resumption is recommended.

Check the catch made on the day of the accident.

6.<.2 Emergency Protective Actions 8,efore implementing emergency protects ve actions, the following factors should be considered:

6-8

Page 34'of 172 The availability of other possible protective actions such as those o

described in Section 6.5.1.

The relative proportion of the total diet by weight represented by e

the item in question.

o

• he importance of the particular food in nutrition and the availability of uncontaminated food'or-substitutes having the same nutritional properties.

nx g

• he relative contribution of other foods and other radionuclides to o-the total projected dese, o

• he time and effort required to implement corrective action.

-Once these factors have been considered, responsible officials should isolate food containing radioactive material to prevent its introduction into-commerce and determine whether condemnation or another disposition is appropriate.

6.6 Recovery from Food and Water Centrol Restrictions on food and water will be lifted when MDPH has determined that levels of radioactive material found in food and water supplies have decreased below the response levels for preventive actions established by the FDA.

From' fallout, !cdine-1?1 is the only radiciedine of significance with respect to milk contamination beyond the first day.

In case of a i

reactor accident, the cumulative intake of Iodine-133 via milk is about 2 percent of Iodine-131 assuming equivalent deposition.

Intake' of Cesium via the meat-person pathway for adults-may exceed that C'

of the milk pathway; therefore, such leveis in milk should cause-surveillance and protective actions for meat as appropriate.

If both Cesium-134 and Cesium-137 are equally present, as might be expected for reactor accidents, the response levels should be reduced by a factor of 2.

Specific needs will be provided by-the Director, Radiation Control Program, or designee who will also confire

'3 arrival times and arrange for any specific-pre-arrival support requested.

Specific needs will be described and arrangements for support _will be made.

Expected times of arrival of federal response agencies will be dependent on severs 1 factors, including locations of federal personnel and equipment.- :t is generally anticipated that these arrival times will range between three to eight hours.

Airports available for federal use include Logan International Airport, Bradley International Airport, Hanscom Field, Westover Air Force Base, Otis Air Force Base, and Pease Air Force Base.

Once the requested support has arrived and/or laboratory facilities have been arranged for, control and coordination of all technical assistance I

will rest with the Director, Radiation Control Program, or designee.

Upon establishment of the Federal Radiological Monitoring and Assessment Center, the CPM representative at the ECT will communicate with the Federal Offsite Technical Director to obtain radiological monitoring and assessment I,

information.

2.3

?'ECAUT:CNS 3.1 The effects of a radiological release from a nuclear power station on the ingestion pathway may net be known frem field sample analysis for several hours or days.

The initial basis for a protective action reccamendation for fresh milk will te based On the projected ground deposition.

'4 hen laboratory results are available, use the measured deposition activity levels instead Of projected levels. The laboratory analysis of pasture grass (actual deposition) and fresh milk T0r peak activity may not be available for several days aft;< the release.

1 Only fresh er open air. storage f:0ds need to te sampled in the early stages of sampling. Canned er packaged f:cds do not take up radicactivity frem the environment. Therefore, canned tuna or breakfast cereals do not need to be sampled.

Stored feeds, such as apples which

,I are held in a controlled environment with no air exchange to the atmosphera, do not need to te sampled. Crain stored in an elevator

~

protably need not te sampled. Milk, eggs, and f.-esh veresstles sneuld te sampled to provide an indication of rad 10 activity in the immediate ingestion pathway.

'4ater. vegetation, and soil may te sampled under c-special circumstances to give indication of long-term ir.gesti:n pathway problems since plants do tend to take up radicactive material from sotl l--

and water.

Eacn sample must te ecliected with care to document the relevant

El collection conditions.

'4 hat is being collected is a sample to pretect

.public health, not to base a court actien. ~herefore, the ecliection and handling routines will be somewhat specialized. Such conditions as the chickens' feed storage locations, whether cows are on stored feed, the amount of snowfall free which a snow sample is taken, Or the slaughter date of a pig may be of importance.

Use of the correct sample bag size can be important - some products may -

be counted in the sample bag and other samples may te placed into a one-half er a one-liter container for sample analysis.

FSB/ECR0 No-1113 MARCH 17, 1076 Food Saf-tv Page 1 of 8 DEHYDRATICN OF FOOD SAMPLES FOR ASSAY OF TRITIUM IN FREE WATER I

=

Emilio J. Troianello Winenester Engineering and Analytical Center Winenester, Massacnusetts Distillation unit Experience witn :ne unit now useo for' distilling free watehfrom food samples I

of the Tettiem Survey Program has shown it will work very well for slow 1ow-3 temperature vacuum distillation of the water and produce a clear, coloriess distillate renov for liquid scintillation counting of its tritium. Less than 5

30 gram nounts of tissue or vegetation are used.

The unit is shown in Figure 1.

• he : arts are joined with o-ring connections, except for the water trap wnten is joineo with a 24/40 ground glass joint.

The e-ring joints are I

8" '.. tightered alth screw-lock clamos.

.,,,.t The disttil.ition unit is supported on a rack and connected to a vacuum pumo.

The vacuum vi 19e s/ stem is read witn a Dubrevin vacuum gauge wnien reads va. "

0-20 n pressure ('..'elen Scientific Company).

A known.eitt of *.Ne sample, enough to produce not more than 25-30 grams of I

water, t s :st "sto the sample tube.

The tare weight of the sample tube closeo attn a ' ork snould be known so that at the end of the distillation the weight of tre cry residue can be determined by difference.

The weight of

.,,,.., the empt/ aater traD closed with a 24/40 ground glass cap, is recorded so that I

at the end of the distillation the weight of distillate can also be determined by difference.

The weights of distillate and dry residue should add up to within aoout two tenths of a gram of the original sample weight, The crease is wiped off t'.e water trap before weighing. For the weighing steps the trap and sample tuce art supported in light weight, polyurethane containers.

g The cistills'.1on unit must be firmly supported on a rack and raised high enougn g

so a rebigerant bath in a vacuum flask can be lif ted under the water trap ano a cylindrical heater can be lifted up under the sample tube. Heavy walled, vacuum tuoing joins the unit to the vacuum gauge and the vacuum pump.

The refr4gerant is a thick slurry of :ry ice in ethanol 'about-7B*C) neld in a wice "iouth vacuum flask.

The flast is lifted with a jack so the lower half of the water trap is cooled.

A split lid of 1-inch thick colyuretnane prolongs the life of the bath.

Each cylindrical :eramic heater nas been f abricated from two hemir.ylindrical components. Model 50102 Type 1704 KSP, 2BC watts, 57.5 volts each.

it fits closely over the samole tube, and is t

li fted into position with a jack.

The output of the neater is controlled with a Powerstat or equivalent control. The heating snould be slight and used not so much to hasten the distillation as to assure a cry, tut not cnarm residue.

The distillation proceeds slowly, often overnignt.

Operation of t9e Distillation Unit The unit must te evacuated without any significant loss of moisture from the sample.

This is done with the sample tute at room temperature and the water trap refrigerated.

With stopcock I closed, stoccock 2 is openeo and the water trao 15 evacuated. With stopcock 2 closed, stoDcock I is coened 'or only a few seconos to pass air from the samole tube to the water trao region. ' Af ter about a minute, stooCocK 2 is opened and the air is pumped out from the water I

trap.

This operation of successively passing air # rom the tamole tube to the trao, allowing some time for moisture to condense in the water trao, and inen pumolng out uncondensable air from the trao. is repeated until the pressure in tne samole tube has teen reduced to :ero on the Dubrevin gauge.

At tnis I

point stoccoct 2 is closed and stopcock 1 is opened to allow the distillation aater to proceed spontaneously.

The neater is started.

I When distillation is comolete. the sample tute and water trap are recoved ano sealed with their respective closures.

They are allowea to come to room temoerature and weigned.

Before its teing weigned the water trao snould te wiped free of lubricating grease on the glass joint and of moisture condensed I

on its outside.

The weignts of the dried res1due and distillate are recorced to verify a proper agreement of sample weignt and products.

I The low-temperature distillation usually produces a clear, colorless water.

Carrots will often give a milky distillate wnich can be redistilled from alkaline permanganate.

Eggs and milk froth during the early evacuation of the I

samole tube.

Their venting must be cautiousi f controlled until this stage is Dassed.

The adaptor over the sample tube nas a bulb in nich a small amount of glass acol can te placed to reduce the cnance of mecnanical carry-over of samole to the water trap.

Between samples the equipment is cleaned by soaking in boiling detergent solutio anich aill dislodge or soften the dried residue in the samole tute and remove I

grease ( Aotezon '4) from the lubricated joints.

If hignly radioactive samoles are processed, the apparatus might have to be steamed to remove adsorced tritium I

.. m,3 Foco Safety Dage 3 of3 Counting of Tritium Ten ml of the :istillate are put into a screw-cap liouid scintillation vial of polyetnylene.

Fif teen ml of phoscher solutien are added.

The vial is capped tigntly and snaken for at least 30 seconds.

This counting mixture is I

described by Lieber ann and Mognissi in Internatienal and Applied Radiation and Isotoces. 21, 31g-327 (1970).

Background correction is determined with a counting mixture c:ntaining 10 ml of distilled, deco-well water.

Counting efficiency is cetermined with an NBS tritiated water stancaro.

The samoles are counteo in a licuid scintillation spectr: meter (Packaro Instruments :m:any, M:cel 3335). The results of two, 50-minute counts are summed ano treateo as a single, 100-minute count.

Backgrouno and standard tritium samoles are incluced in each run'for determining tackground and efficiency corrections.

Polyethylene vials are used because of their low background activities, le~ss than 10 com.

newever, polyethylene or glass vials exposed to sunlight or incandescent lignt will snow sourious activities which are dissipated slowly.

t = time minutes Discussion Table el represents inree analysis of a s Die of lettuce that aas grown in a tritiatec (water containing tritium environment.

The taole snows that the amount of tritium in the sample, anen analyzec by the cistillatio' a

rotecure, gave an assay of 141.3 nCi and 225.3 nC1 of tritium in.pne kilogram of lectuce respectively; or an average of 187.5 nCi of tritium inonekilogramoflettge.

These results are in geoc agreerrent with tn.

Ix total combustion methoew wnich gave a value of 190.5 nCi of tritium in v-kilogram of lettuce.

In accition, results snow that the cistillation procedure, extracted almost 100% of the tritium founc in the samole, wnile less than 0.1% was lef t in the cry resicue.

I Graon el snows the results of the data cotainec wnen easurec against EPA's Ouality Assurance Cross-Checx Program.

The results average less than -1 50 for tne tnree samples.

Conclusion The proposed metnoc has the advantage of speed in analy:ing trit 1um; wnen compared to the direct comoustion metnoc, saving consicerable analytical time.

I The method also has proved just as accurate anc precise wnen compared with EPA's Quality Assurance Cross-Check Program.

The average result of the distillation metnoc is in excellent agreement onen compared to the total combustion metnoc.

Technt:a! !sses The conversion from pCi/cc at the sample point to pCi/cc at the location of interest is as follows:

3 pCi/cc x ft /m x 1E-6 Ci/pci x min /60 see x 28,320 cc/ft3 x sec/m3 = pCi/cc II-6 C1/uci x min /60 see x 28,320 cc/ft3. c, g &

X/Q (sec/m3) is determined as a function of stability class and windspeed.

3 F = stack flow rate in ft / min = 6.84E + 4 where :,, = stack linear-flow rate in ft/ min.

Obtain. the child breathing rate f rom Regulatory Guide 1.109 as 3,700 m3/yr.

which converts to 4.22E-$,cc/hr.

Obtain -!nhalation dose f actors f rom Table E-9 of Regulatory cuide 1.109 -in units of mr/oci inhaled and convert to mr/uci.

Thus:

pCi/cc x 6.22E-5 cc/hr x mr/9Ci = frr/hr The calculation for determining the concentration of radionuclides in milk from contaminated feed is obtained from Regulatory Guide 1.109.

. For a given isotope at a given location, the formula is:

CS = concentratien in milk in oCi/11:er Fm = The average !rection of tne animals' daily intake of ne radionuclide whien appears in eacn liter of milk in dayst liter.

CE = concentration in animals feed in oCi/kg Qr = amount of feed censumed each day in Kg/ day t = average transport time from feed to milk to receptor (2 days)

X = decay constant of radionuclide in days-l The calculation for SrS9 whole body-dose rate is as f ollows:

X = 0.693/52 days = 1.33E-2

\\t = 2.67E-2 e-At = 0.97 8.0E-04 d/1 x oci/kg x 50 Kg/d x 0.97 pC1/1 = oCi/Kg x 3.88E-2-Kg/l Calculate the dose from ingestion as follows:

D = Cm um DFI

'4he re :

D = Dose rate from milk ingestion in mr/ day US = Rate of ingestion 1/ day DFI = Ingestion Dose Factor (Table E-13) in mr/oCi For Sr89 example:

pC1/1 x 0.471/ day x 3.77E-5 mr/pci = mr/ day Therefore pCi/kg x 3.88E-2 Kg/l x.47 1/ day x 3.77E-5 mr/oci = mr/ day oCi/kg x 6.9E-7 = mr/ day Page 2 of 3

The calculation for meat is the same as for milk with tne following exceptions:

1.

Element transfer data changes Table E-1).

2.

The transport time is increased to 20 days.

3.

Ingestion rate is 0.101 Kg/ day (Table E-4).

~

nis calculation is the same as for milk ingestion except:

1.

No credit is taken for decay.

2.

Ingestion rate is 0.55 Kg/ day.

The following calculations were used:

dpe/100 cm; x 0.45 pCi/dpm x 100(100eml)/m2 = 45

~

The conversion from pCi/m2 to mr/hr was derived from Regulatory Guide 1.109 assuming all activity to be Csl34 (the most limiting long-lived isotope).

The Dose Consnitment Factors were taken f rom:
