For individuals who may at times be within the unrestricted area boundary, the occupancy of the individual will be sufficiently low to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric dif-fusion factor above that for the unrestricted area boundary. The speci-  ;

fled _ 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 mrem / year 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 th',-

roid dose rate above limits also restrict, at~ all times, the correspond-ing thyroid dose rate above background to an infant via the cow-milk-in-fant pathway to less than or equal to 1500 mrem / year for the nearest cow to _the plant.

This specification is provided to meet the dose limitations of 40 CFR 190. The specification requires the preparation and submittal of a Special Report whenever the calculated doses from plant radioactive effluents exceed twice the design objective doses of Appendix I. For sites containing up to 4 reactors, it is highly unlikely that the re-sultant dose to a real-individual will exceed 40 CFR 190 if the in-dividual reactors remain within the reporting requirement level. The Special Report will describe a course of-action which should result in the limitation ~ of dose to a real individual'for 12 consecutive months to within the 40 CFR 190 limits. For the purposes of the Special Reoort, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the real individual from other uranium fuel' cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that dose contributions from other. nuclear fuel cycle facilities at the same site or within a radius of' 5 miles must be considered.

4.26.1.2.a. With the radiological environmental monitoring program not being conducted as specified in Table 4.26-1, prepare and submit to the Commission in the Annual Radio-logical Environmental Report, a description of the reasons for not conducting the program as required and the plans for preventing a recurrence. (Deviations are permitted from the required sampling schedule if specimens are not obtain-able due to hazardous conditions, seasonal unavailability, or to malfunction of sampling equipment. If the latter, every effort shall be made to complete corrective action prior to the end of the next sampling period.)

b. With the level of radioactivity in an environmental sampl-ing medium at one or more of the locations specified in Table 4.26-1 exceeding the limits of Table 4.26-3 when averaged over any calendar quarter, prepare and submit to the Commission within 30 days from the end of the affected calendar quarter, a report which includes an evaluation of any. release conditions, environmental factors or other aspects which caused the limits of Table 4.26-3 to be exceeded. This report is not required if the measured level of radioactivity was not the result of plant effluents; however, in such an event, the condition shall be reported and des-cribed in the Annual Radiological Environmental Report.

ability of samples and identifies locations for obtaining replacement samples. The locations from which samples were unavailable may then be deleted from Table 4.26-1 provided the

.. locations from which the replacement samples were obtained are added to the environmental monitoring program as replacement locations, if available.

4.26.1.3 The results of analyses performed on the radio-

. logical environmental monitoring samples shall be summarized in the Annual Radiological Environmental Report. The Annual Radiological Environmental Report may be submitted with or as a part of the Annual Environmental Report required by Environ-mental Technical Specification 5.6.1.

Bases _:

The radiological monitoring program required by this specification provides measurements of radiation and of radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the station operation. This monitoring program thereby supplements the radiological effluents monitoring pro-gram by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radio-active materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and model-ing of the environmental exposure pathways. The initially specified monitoring program will be effective for at least the first three years of commercial operation. . Following this period, program changes may be initiated based on operational experience.

The detection capabilities required by Table 4.26-2 are state-of-the-art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories.

The LLD's for drinldng water meet the requirements of 40 CFR 141.

• Broad leaf vegetation sampling may be performed at the site boundary in the direction sector with the highest D/Q in lieu of the garden census.

Bases

This Specification is provided to ensure that changes in the use of unrestricted areas are identified and that modifications to the moni-toring program are made if required by the results of this census. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appendix I to 10 CPR Part 50. Restricting the census to gardens of greater than 500 square feet provides assurance that significant exposure pathway via leafy vegetables will be identified and monitored since a garden of this size is the' minimum required to produce the quantity (26kg/ year) of leafy vegetables assumed in Regulatory Guide 1.109 for consumption by.a child.

To determine this minimun garden size, _ the following assumptions were used,1) that 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegeta-tion (i.e. , similar to lettuce and cabbage), and 2) a vegetation yield of 2 kg/ square meter.
