SUMMARY

ENTERGY NUCLEAR PILGRIM NUCLEAR POWER STATION RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM REPORT JANUARY 01 THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2007 INTRODUCTION This report summarizes the results of the Entergy Nuclear Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) conducted in the vicinity of Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station (PNPS) during the period from January 1 to December 31, 2007. This document has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of PNPS Technical Specifications section 5.6.2.The REMP has been established to monitor the radiation and radioactivity released to the environment as a result of Pilgrim Station's operation.

This program, initiated in August 1968, includes the collection, analysis, and evaluation of radiological data in order to assess the impact of Pilgrim Station on the environment and on the general public.SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS The environmental sampling media collected in the vicinity of PNPS and at distant locations include air particulate filters, charcoal cartridges, animal forage, vegetation, cranberries, seawater, sediment, Irish moss, shellfish, American lobster, and fishes.During 2007, there were 1,255 samples collected from the atmospheric, aquatic, and terrestrial environments.

In addition, 430 exposure measurements were obtained using environmental thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs).A small number of inadvertent issues were encountered during 2007 in the collection of environmental samples in accordance with the PNPS Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM). Ten out of 440 TLDs were unaccounted for during the quarterly retrieval process. However, the 430 TLDs that were collected provided the information necessary to assess ambient radiation levels in the vicinity of Pilgrim Station.Equipment failures and power outages resulted in a small number of instances in which lower than normal volumes were collected at the airborne sampling stations.

In some cases, outages were of sufficient duration to yield no sample, and 569 of 572 air particulate and charcoal cartridges were collected and analyzed as required.

A full description of any discrepancies encountered with the environmental monitoring program is presented in Appendix D of this report.There were 1,299 analyses performed on the environmental media samples. Analyses were performed by the J.A. Fitzpatrick Environmental Laboratory in Fulton, New York. Samples were analyzed as required by the PNPS ODCM.LAND USE CENSUS The annual land use census in the vicinity of Pilgrim Station was conducted as required by the PNPS ODCM between July 17 and September 21, 2007. A total of 30 vegetable gardens having an area of more than 500 square feet were identified within five kilometers (three miles) of PNPS. No new milk or meat animals were located during the census. Of the 30 garden locations identified, samples were collected at or near four of the gardens as part of the environmental monitoring program.Page 5 RADIOLOGICAL IMPACT TO THE ENVIRONMENT During 2007, samples (except charcoal cartridges) collected as part of the REMP at Pilgrim Station continued to contain detectable amounts of naturally-occurring and man-made radioactive materials.

No samples indicated any detectable radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station operations.

Offsite ambient radiation measurements using environmental TLDs beyond the site boundary ranged between 43 and 78 milliRoentgens per year. The range of ambient radiation levels observed with the TLDs is consistent with natural background radiation levels for Massachusetts as determined by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).RADIOLOGICAL IMPACT TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC During 2007, radiation doses to the general public as a result of Pilgrim Station's operation continued to be well below the federal limits and much less than the collective dose due to other sources of man-made (e.g., X-rays, medical, fallout) and naturally-occurring (e.g., cosmic, radon) radiation.

The calculated total body dose to the maximally exposed member of the general public from radioactive effluents and ambient radiation resulting from PNPS operations for 2007 was about 2.8 mrem for the year.This conservative estimate is well below the EPA's annual dose limit to any member of the general public and is a fraction of a percent of the typical dose received from natural and man-made radiation.

CONCLUSIONS The 2007 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for Pilgrim Station resulted in the collection and analysis of hundreds of environmental samples and measurements.

The data obtained were used to determine the impact of Pilgrim Station's operation on the environment and on the general public.An evaluation of direct radiation measurements, environmental sample analyses, and dose calculations showed that all applicable federal criteria were met. Furthermore, radiation levels and resulting doses were a small fraction of those that are normally present due to natural and man-made background radiation.

Based on this information, there is no significant radiological impact on the environment or on the general public due to Pilgrim Station's operation.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for 2007 performed by Entergy Nuclear Company for Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station (PNPS) is discussed in this report. Since the operation of a nuclear power plant results in the release of small amounts of radioactivity and low levels of radiation, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requires a program to be established to monitor radiation and radioactivity in the environment (Reference 1). This report, which is required to be published annually by Pilgrim Station's Technical Specifications section 5.6.2, summarizes the results of measurements of radiation and radioactivity in the environment in the vicinity of the Pilgrim Station and at distant locations during the period January 1 to December 31, 2007.The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program consists of taking radiation measurements and collecting samples from the environment, analyzing them for radioactivity content, and interpreting the results. With emphasis on the critical radiation exposure pathways to humans, samples from the aquatic, atmospheric, and terrestrial environments are collected.

These samples include, but are not limited to: air, animal forage, vegetation, cranberries, seawater, sediment, Irish moss, shellfish, lobster, and fish.Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) are placed in the environment to measure gamma radiation levels.The TLDs are processed and the environmental samples are analyzed to measure the very low levels of radiation and radioactivity present in the environment as a result of PNPS operation and other natural and man-made sources. These results are reviewed by PNPS's radiological staff and have been reported semiannually or annually.to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and others since 1972.In order to more fully understand how a nuclear power plant impacts humans and the environment, background information on radiation and radioactivity, natural and man-made sources of radiation, reactor operations, radioactive effluent controls, and radiological impact on humans is provided.

It is believed that this information will assist the reader in understanding the radiological impact on the environment and humans from the operation of Pilgrim Station.1.1 Radiation and Radioactivity All matter is made of atoms. An atom is the smallest part into which matter can be broken down and still maintain all its chemical properties.

Nuclear radiation is energy, in the form of waves or particles that is given off by unstable, radioactive atoms.Radioactive material exists naturally and has always been a part of our environment.

The earth's crust, for example, contains radioactive uranium, radium, thorium, and potassium.

Some radioactivity is a result of nuclear weapons testing. Examples of radioactive fallout that is normally present in environmental samples are cesium-137 and strontium-90.

Some examples of radioactive materials released from a nuclear power plant are cesium-137, iodine-131, strontium-90, and cobalt-60.

Radiation is measured in units of millirem, much like temperature is measured in degrees. A millirem is a measure of the biological effect of the energy deposited in tissue. The natural and man-made radiation dose received in one year by the average American is 300 to 400 mrem (References 2, 3, 4).Radioactivity is measured in curies. A curie is that amount of radioactive material needed to produce 37,000,000,000 nuclear disintegrations per second. This is an extremely large amount of radioactivity in comparison to environmental radioactivity.

That is why radioactivity in the environment is measured in picocuries.

One picocurie is equal to one trillionth of a curie.Page 7

1.2 Sources

of Radiation As mentioned previously, naturally occurring radioactivity has always been a part of our environment.

Table 1.2-1 shows the sources and doses of radiation from natural and man-made sources.Table 1.2-1 Radiation Sources and Corresponding Doses NATURAL MAN-MADE Radiation Dose Radiation Dose Source (millirem/year)

Source (millirem/year)

Cosmic/cosmogenic 30 Medical/Dental X-Rays 39 Internal 40 Nuclear Medicine 14 Terrestrial 30 Consumer Products 10 Radon/Thoron 200 Weapons Fallout 1 Nuclear Power Plants 1 Approximate Total 300 Approximate Total 60 Cosmic radiation from the sun and outer space penetrates the earth's atmosphere and continuously bombards us with rays and charged particles.

Some of this cosmic radiation interacts with gases and particles in the atmosphere, making them radioactive in turn. These radioactive byproducts from cosmic ray bombardment are referred to as cosmogenic radionuclides.

Isotopes such as beryllium-7 and carbon-14 are formed in this way. Exposure to cosmic and cosmogenic sources of radioactivity results in about 30*mrem of radiation dose per year.Additionally, natural radioactivity is in our body and in the food we eat (about 40 millirem/yr), the ground we walk on (about 30 millirem/yr) and the air we breathe (about 200 millirem/yr).

The majority of a person's annual dose results from exposure to radon and thoron in the air we breathe. These gases and their radioactive decay products arise from the decay of naturally occurring uranium, thorium and radium in the soil and building products such as brick, stone, and concrete.

Radon and thoron levels vary greatly with location, primarily due to changes in the concentration of uranium and thorium in the soil. Residents at some locations in Colorado, New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey have a higher annual dose as a result of higher levels of radon/thoron gases in these areas. In total, these various sources of naturally-occurring radiation and radioactivity contribute to a total dose of about 300 mrem per year.In addition to natural radiation, we are normally exposed to radiation from a number of man-made sources.The single largest doses from man-made sources result from therapeutic and diagnostic applications of x-rays and radiopharmaceuticals.

The annual dose to an individual in the U.S. from medical and dental exposure is about 50 mrem. Consumer products, such as televisions and smoke detectors, contribute about 10 mrem/yr. Much smaller doses result from weapons fallout (less than 1 rmrem/yr) and nuclear power plants.- Typically, the average person in the United States receives about 60 mrem per year from man-made sources.Page 8

1.3 Nuclear

Reactor Operations Pilgrim Station generates about 700 megawatts of electricity at full power, which is enough electricity to supply the entire city of Boston, Massachusetts.

Pilgrim Station is a boiling water reactor whose nuclear steam supply system was provided by General Electric Co. The nuclear station is located on a 1600-acre site about eight kilometers (five miles) east-southeast of Plymouth Center. Commercial operation began in December 1972.Pilgrim Station was operationalduring most of 2007, with the exception of the refueling outage which was performed between 07-Apr-2007 and 08-May-2007.

The resulting monthly capacity factors are presented in Table 1.3-1.TABLE 1.3-1 PNPS OPERATING CAPACITY FACTOR DURING 2007 (Based on rated reactor thermal power)Month Percent Capacity January 97.4%February 94.6%March 76.1%April 15.2%May 67.7%June 99.9%July 87.6%August 98.8%September 99.2%October -99.1%November 99.9%December 91.2%Annual Average 85.6%Nuclear-generated electricity is produced at Pilgrim Station by many of the same techniques used for conventional oil and coal-generated electricity.

Both systems use heat to boil water to produce steam.The steam turns a turbine, which turns a generator, producing electricity.

In both cases, the steam passes through a condenser where it changes back into water and recirculates back through the system. The cooling water source for Pilgrim Station is the Cape Cod Bay.The key difference between Pilgrim's nuclear power and conventional power is the source of heat used to boil the water. Conventional plants burn fossil fuels in a boiler, while nuclear plants make use of uranium in a nuclear reactor.Inside the reactor, a nuclear reaction called fission takes place. Particles, called neutrons, strike the nucleus of a uranium-235 atom, causing it to split into fragments called radioactive fission products.

The splitting of the atoms releases both heat and more neutrons.

The newly-released neutrons then collide with and split other uranium atoms, thus making more heat and releasing even more neutrons, and on and on until the uranium fuel is depleted or spent. This process is called a chain reaction.Page 9 The operation of a nuclear reactor results in the release of small amounts of radioactivity and low levels of radiation.

The radioactivity originates from two major sources, radioactive fission products and radioactive activation products.Radioactive fission products, as illustrated in Figure 1.3-1 (Reference 5), originate from the fissioning of the nuclear fuel. These fission products get into the reactor coolant from their release by minute amounts of uranium on the outside surfaces of the fuel cladding, by diffusion through the fuel pellets and cladding and, on occasion, through defects or failures in the fuel cladding.

These fission products circulate along with the reactor coolant water and will deposit on the internal surfaces of pipes and equipment.

The radioactive fission products on the pipes and equipment emit radiation.

Examples of some fission products are krypton-85 (Kr-85), strontium-90 (Sr-90), iodine-131 (1-131), xenon-133 (Xe-133), and cesium-137 (Cs-137).Page 10 Nuclear Fission Fission is the splitting of the uranium-235 atom by a neutron to release heat and more neutrons, creating a chain reaction.Radiation and fission products are by-products of the process.-"Radiation Uranium-Radiation Neutrons Uranium Uranium Fission Products Figure 1.3-1 Radioactive Fission Product Formation Page 11 Radioactive activation products (see Figure 1.3-2), on the other hand, originate from two sources. The first is by neutron bombardment of the hydrogen, oxygen and other gas (helium, argon, nitrogen) molecules in the reactor cooling water. The second is a result of the fact that the internals of any piping system or component are subject to minute yet constant corrosion from the reactor cooling water. These minute metallic particles (for example: nickel, iron, cobalt, or magnesium) are transported through the reactor core into the fuel region, where neutrons may react with the nuclei of these particles, producing radioactive products.

So, activation products are nothing more than ordinary naturally-occurring atoms that are made unstable or radioactive by neutron bombardment.

These activation products circulate along with the reactor coolant water and will deposit on the internal surfaces of pipes and equipment.

The radioactive activation products on the pipes and equipment emit radiation.

Examples of some activation products are manganese-54 (Mn-54), iron-59 (Fe-59), cobalt-60 (Co-60), and zinc-65 (Zn-65).Co-59 "".' Co-60 Neutron Stable, Cobalt Nucleus Radioactive Cobalt Nucleus Figure 1.3-2 Radioactive Activation Product Formation At Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station there are five independent protective barriers that confine these radioactive materials.

These five barriers, which are shown in Figure 1.3-3 (Reference 5), are:* fuel pellets;* fuel cladding;* reactor vessel and piping;14 primary containment (drywell and torus); and,* secondary containment (reactor building).

Page 12 SIMPLIFIED DIAGRAM OF A BOILING WATER REACTOR 3.1. FUEL PELLETS FUEL CLADDING REACTOR VESSEL 4. PRIMARY CONTAINMENT

5. SEC CONDARY CONTAINMENT REACTOR BUILDING DRYWELL Figure 1.3-3 Barriers To Confine Radioactive Materials Page 13 The ceramic uranium fuel pellets provide the first barrier. Most of the radioactive fission products are either physically trapped or chemically bound between the uranium atoms, where they will remain.However, a few fission products that are volatile or gaseous may diffuse through the fuel pellets into small gaps between the pellets and the fuel cladding.The second barrier, the fuel cladding, consists of zirconium alloy tubes that confine the fuel pellets. The small gaps between the fuel and the cladding contain the noble gases and volatile iodines that are types of radioactive fission products.

This radioactivity can diffuse to a small extent through the fuel cladding into the reactor coolant water.The third barrier consists of the reactor pressure vessel, steel piping and equipment that confine the reactor cooling water. The reactor pressure vessel, which holds the reactor fuel, is a 65-foot high by 19-foot diameter tank with steel walls about nine inches thick. This provides containment for radioactivity in the primary coolant and the reactor core. However, during the course of operations and maintenance, small amounts of radioactive fission and activation products can escape through valve leaks or upon breaching of the primary coolant system for maintenance.

The fourth barrier is the primary containment.

This consists of the drywell and the torus. The drywell is a steel lined enclosure that is shaped like an inverted light bulb. An approximately five foot thick concrete wall encloses the drywell's steel pressure vessel. The torus is a donut-shaped pressure suppression chamber. The steel walls of the torus are nine feet in diameter with the donut itself having an outside diameter of about 130 feet. Small amounts of radioactivity may be released from primary containment during maintenance.

The fifth barrier is the secondary containment or, reactor building.

The reactor building is the concrete building that surrounds the primary containment.

This barrier is an additional safety feature to contain radioactivity that may escape from the primary containment.

This reactor building is equipped with a filtered ventilation system that is used when needed to reduce the radioactivity that escapes from the primary containment.

The five barriers confine most of the radioactive fission and activation products.

However, small amounts of radioactivity do escape via mechanical failures and maintenance on valves, piping, and equipment associated with the reactor cooling water system. The small amounts of radioactive liquids and gases that do escape the various containment systems are further controlled by the liquid purification and ventilation filtration systems. Also, prior to a release to the environment, control systems exist to collect and purify the radioactive effluents in order to reduce releases to the environment to as low as is reasonably achievable.

The control of radioactive effluents at Pilgrim Station will be discussed in more detail in the next section.Page 14

1.4 Radioactive

Effluent Control The small amounts of radioactive liquids and gases that might escape the five barriers are purified in the liquid and gaseous waste treatment systems, then monitored for radioactivity, and released only if the radioactivity levels are below the federal release limits.Radioactivity released from the liquid effluent system to the environment is limited, controlled, and monitored by a variety of systems and procedures which include: " reactor water cleanup system;" liquid radwaste treatment system;" sampling and analysis of the liquid radwaste tanks; and,* liquid waste effluent discharge header radioactivity monitor.The purpose of the reactor water cleanup system is to continuously purify the reactor cooling water by removing radioactive atoms and non-radioactive impurities that may become activated by neutron bombardment.

A portion of the reactor coolant water is diverted from the primary coolant system and is directed through ion exchange resins where radioactive elements, dissolved and suspended in the water, are removed through chemical processes.

The net effect is a substantial reduction of the radioactive material that is present in the primary coolant water and consequently the amount of radioactive material that might escape from the system.Reactor cooling water that might escape the primary cooling system and other radioactive water sources are collected in floor and equipment drains. These drains direct this radioactive liquid waste to large holdup tanks. The liquid waste collected in the tanks is purified again using the liquid radwaste treatment system, which consists of a filter and ion exchange resins.Processing of liquid radioactive waste results in large reductions of radioactive liquids discharged into Cape Cod Bay. Of all wastes processed through liquid radwaste treatment, 90 to 95 percent of all wastes are purified and the processed liquid is re-used in plant systems.Prior to release, the radioactivity in the liquid radwaste tank is sampled and analyzed to determine if the level of radioactivity is below the release limits and to quantify the total amount of radioactive liquid effluent that would be released.

If the levels are below the federal release limits, the tank is drained to the liquid effluent discharge header.This liquid waste effluent discharge header is provided with a shielded radioactivity monitor. This detector is connected to a radiation level meter and a strip chart recorder in the Control Room. The radiation alarm is set so that the detector will alarm before radioactivity levels exceed the release limits. The liquid effluent discharge header has an isolation valve. If an alarm is received, the liquid effluent discharge valve will automatically close, thereby terminating the release to the Cape Cod Bay and preventing any liquid radioactivity from being released that may exceed the release limits. An audible alarm notifies the Control Room operator that this has occurred.Some liquid waste sources which have a low potential for containing radioactivity, and/or may contain very low levels of contamination, may be discharged directly to the discharge canal without passing through the liquid radwaste discharge header. One such source of liquids is the neutralizing sump. However, prior to discharging such liquid wastes, the tank is thoroughly mixed and a representative sample is collected for analysis of radioactivity content prior to being discharged.

Another means for adjusting liquid effluent concentrations to below federal limits is by mixing plant cooling water from the condenser with the liquid effluents in the discharge canal. This larger volume of cooling water further dilutes the radioactivity levels far below the release limits.Page 15 The preceding discussion illustrates that many controls exist to reduce the radioactive liquid effluents released to the Cape Cod Bay to as far below the release limits as is reasonably achievable.

Radioactive releases from the radioactive gaseous effluent system to the environment are limited, controlled, and monitored by a variety of systems and procedures which include:* reactor building ventilation system;" reactor building vent effluent radioactivity monitor;* sampling and analysis of reactor building vent effluents;

• standby gas treatment system;* main stack effluent radioactivity monitor and sampling;* sampling and analysis of main stack effluents;

• augmented off-gas system;" steam jet air ejector (SJAE) monitor; and,* off-gas radiation monitor.The purpose of the reactor building ventilation system is to collect and exhaust reactor building air. Air collected from contaminated areas is filtered prior to combining it with air collected from other parts of the building.

This combined airflow is then directed to the reactor building ventilation plenum that is located on the side of the reactor building.

This plenum, which vents to the atmosphere, is equipped with a radiation detector.

The radiation level meter and strip chart recorder for the reactor building vent effluent radioactivity monitor is located in the Control Room. To supplement the information continuously provided by the detector, air samples are taken periodically from the reactor building vent and are analyzed to quantify the total amount of tritium and radioactive gaseous and particulate effluents released.If air containing elevated amounts of noble gases is routed past the reactor building vent's effluent radioactivity monitor, an alarm will alert the Control Room operators that release limits are being approached.

The -Control Room operators, according to procedure, will isolate the reactor building ventilation system and initiate the standby gas treatment system to remove airborne particulates and gaseous halogen radioactivity from the reactor building exhaust. This filtration assembly consists of high-efficiency particulate air filters and charcoal adsorber beds. The purified air is then directed to the main stack. The main stack has dilution flow that further reduces concentration levels of gaseous releases to the environment to as far below the release limits as is reasonably achievable.

The approximately 335 foot tall main stack has a special probe inside it that withdraws a portion of the air and passes it through a radioactivity monitoring system. This main stack effluent radioactivity monitoring system continuously samples radioactive particulates, iodines, and noble gases. Grab samples for a tritium analysis are also collected at this location.

The system also contains radioactivity detectors that monitor the levels of radioactive noble gases in the stack flow and display the result on radiation level meters and strip chart recorders located in the Control Room. To supplement the information continuously provided by the detectors, the particulate, iodine, tritium, and gas samples are analyzed periodically to quantify the total amount of radioactive gaseous effluent being released.The purpose of the augmented off-gas system is to reduce the radioactivity from the gases that are removed from the condenser.

This purification system consists of two 30-minute holdup lines to reduce the radioactive gases with short half-lives, several charcoal adsorbers to remove radioactive iodines and further retard the short half-life gases, and offgas filters to remove radioactive particulates.

The recombiner collects free hydrogen and oxygen gas and recombines them into water. This helps reduce the gaseous releases of short-lived isotopes of oxygen that have been made radioactive by neutron activation.

The radioactive off-gas from the condenser is then directed into a ventilation pipe to which the off-gas radiation monitors are attached.

The radiation level meters and strip chart recorders for this detector are also located in the Control Room. If a radiation alarm setpoint is exceeded, an audible alarm will sound to Page 16 alert the Control Room operators.

In addition, the off-gas bypass and charcoal adsorber inlet valve will automatically re-direct the off-gas into the charcoal adsorbers if they are temporarily being bypassed.

If the radioactivity levels are not returned to below the alarm setpoint within 13 minutes, the off-gas releases will be automatically isolated, thereby preventing any gaseous radioactivity from being released that may exceed the release limits.Therefore, for both liquid and gaseous releases, radioactive effluent control systems exist to collect and purify the radioactive effluents in order to reduce releases to the environment to as low as is reasonably achievable.

The effluents are always monitored, sampled and analyzed prior to release to make sure that radioactivity levels are below the release limits. If the release limits are being approached, isolation valves in some of the waste effluent lines will automatically shut to stop the release, or Control Room operators will implement procedures to ensure that federal regulatory limits are always met.1.5 Radiological Impact on Humans The final step in the effluent control process is the determination of the radiological dose impact to humans and comparison with the federal dose limits to the public. As mentioned previously, the purpose of continuous radiation monitoring and periodic sampling and analysis is to measure the quantities of radioactivity being released to determine compliance with the radioactivity release limits. This is the first stage for assessing releases to the environment.

Next, calculations of the dose impact to the general public from Pilgrim Station's radioactive effluents are performed.

The purpose of these calculations is to periodically assess the doses to the general public resulting from radioactive effluents to ensure that these doses are being maintained as far below the federal dose limits as is reasonably achievable.

This is the second stage for assessing releases to the environment.

The types and quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents released from Pilgrim Station during each given year are reported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission annually.

The 2007 Radioactive Effluents are provided in Appendix B and will be discussed in more detail in Section 3 of this report. These liquid and gaseous effluents were well below the federal release limits and were a small percentage of the PNPS ODCM effluent control limits.These measurements of the physical and chemical nature of the effluents are used to determine how the radionuclides will interact with the environment and how they can result in radiation exposure to humans.The environmental interaction mechanisms depend upon factors such as the hydrological (water) and meteorological (atmospheric) characteristics in the area. Information on the water flow, wind speed, wind direction, and atmospheric mixing characteristics are used to estimate how radioactivity will distribute a'nd disperse in the ocean and the atmosphere.

The most important type of information that is used to evaluate the radiological impact on humans is data on the use of. the environment.

Information on fish and shellfish consumption, boating usage, beach usage, locations of cows and goats, locations of residences, locations of gardens, drinking water supplies, and other usage information are utilized to estimate the amount of radiation and radioactivity received by the general public.The radiation exposure pathway to humans is the path radioactivity takes from its release point at Pilgrim Station to its effect on man.

Figure 1.5-1 Radiation Exposure Pathways Page 18 There are three major ways in which liquid effluents affect humans:* external radiation from liquid effluents that deposit and accumulate on the shoreline;

• external radiation from immersion in ocean water containing radioactive liquids; and,* internal radiation from consumption of fish and shellfish containing radioactivity absorbed from the liquid effluents.

There are six major ways in which gaseous effluents affect humans:* external radiation from an airborne plume of radioactivity;

• internal radiation from inhalation of airborne radioactivity;

• external radiation from deposition of radioactive effluents on soil;* ambient (direct) radiation from contained sources at the power plant;* internal radiation from consumption of vegetation containing radioactivity deposited on vegetation or absorbed from the soil due to ground deposition of radioactive effluents; and,* internal radiation from consumption of milk and meat containing radioactivity deposited on forage that is eaten by cattle and other livestock.

In addition, ambient (direct) radiation emitted from contained sources of radioactivity at PNPS contributes to radiation exposure in the vicinity of the plant. Radioactive nitrogen-16 contained in the steam flowing through the turbine accounts for the majority of this "sky shine" radiation exposure immediately adjacent to the plant. Smaller amounts of ambient radiation result from low-level radioactive waste stored at the site prior to shipping and disposal.To the extent possible, the radiological dose impact on humans is based on direct measurements of radiation and radioactivity in the environment.

When PNPS-related activity is detected in samples that represent a plausible exposure pathway, the resulting dose from such exposure is assessed (see Appendix A). However, the operation of Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station results in releases of only small amounts of radioactivity, and, as a result of dilution in the atmosphere and ocean, even the most sensitive radioactivity measurement and analysis techniques cannot usually detect these tiny amounts of radioactivity above that which is naturally present in the environment.

Therefore, radiation doses are calculated using radioactive effluent release data and computerized dose calculations that are based on very conservative NRC-recommended models that tend to result in over-estimates of resulting dose.These computerized dose calculations are performed by or for Entergy Nuclear personnel.

These computer codes use the guidelines and methodology set forth by the NRC in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference 6). The dose calculations are documented and described in detail in the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station's Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (Reference 7), which has been reviewed by the NRC.Monthly dose calculations are performed by PNPS personnel.

It should be emphasized that because of the very conservative assumptions made in the computer code calculations, the maximum hypothetical dose to an individual is considerably higher than the dose that would actually be received by a real individual.

After dose calculations are performed, the results are compared to the federal dose limits for the public.The two federal agencies that are charged with the responsibility of protecting the public from radiation and radioactivity are the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).Page 19 The NRC, in 10CFR 20.1301 (Reference

8) limits the levels of radiation to unrestricted areas resulting from the possession or use of radioactive materials such that they limit any individual to a dose of:* less than or equal to 100 mrem per year to the total body.In addition to this dose limit, the NRC has established design objectives for nuclear plant licensees.

Conformance to these guidelines ensures that nuclear power reactor effluents are maintained as far below the legal limits as is reasonably achievable.

The NRC, in 10CFR 50 Appendix I (Reference

9) establishes design objectives for the dose to a member of the general public from radioactive material in liquid effluents released to unrestricted areas to be limited to:* less than or equal to 3 mrem per year to the total body; and, a less than or equal to 10 mrem per year to any organ.The air dose due to release of noble gases in gaseous effluents is restricted to:* less than or equal to 10 mrad per year for gamma radiation; and,* less than or equal to 20 mrad per year for beta radiation.

The dose to a member of the general public from iodine-131, tritium, and all particulate radionuclides with half-lives greater than 8 days in gaseous effluents is limited to:* less than or equal to 15 mrem per year to any organ.The EPA, in 40CFR190.10 Subpart B (Reference 10), sets forth the environmental standards for the uranium fuel cycle. During normal operation, the annual dose to any member of the public from the entire uranium fuel cycle shall be limited to: " less than or equal to 25 mrem per year to the total body;* less than or equal to 75 mrem per year to the thyroid; and,,* less than or equal to 25 mrem per year to any other organ.The summary of the 2007 radiological impact for Pilgrim Station and comparison with the EPA dose limits and guidelines, as well as a comparison with natural/man-made radiation levels, is presented in Section 3 of this report.The third stage of assessing releases to the environment is the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP). The description and results of the REMP at Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station during 2007 is discussed in Section 2 of this report.Page 20

2.0 RADIOLOGICAL

ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM 2.1 Pre-Operational Monitorinq Results The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) at Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station was first initiated in August 1968, in the form of a pre-operational monitoring program prior to bringing the station on-line. The NRC's intent (Reference

11) with performing a pre-operational environmental monitoring program is to:* measure background levels and their variations in the environment in the area surrounding the licensee's station; and,.evaluate procedures, equipment, and techniques for monitoring radiation and radioactivity in the environment.

The pre-operational program (Reference

12) continued for approximately three and a half years, from August 1968 to June 1972. Examples of background radiation and radioactivity levels measured during this time period are as follows:* Airborne Radioactivity Particulate Concentration (gross beta): 0.02 -1.11 pCi/m 3;* Ambient Radiation (TLDs): 4.2 -22 micro-R/hr (37 -190 mR/yr);" Seawater Radioactivity Concentrations (gross beta): 12 -31 pCi/liter;

• Fish Radioactivity Concentrations (gross beta): 2,200 -11,300 pCi/kg;" Milk Radioactive Cesium-137 Concentrations:

9.3 -32 pCi/liter;

• Milk Radioactive Strontium-90 Concentrations:

4.7 -17.6 pCi/liter;

• Cranberries Radioactive Cesium-137 Concentrations:

140 -450 pCi/kg;* Forage Radioactive Cesium-137 Concentrations:

150 -290 pCi/kg.This information from the pre-operational phase is used as a basis for evaluating changes in radiation and radioactivity levels in the vicinity of the plant following plant operation.

In April 1972, just prior to initial reactor startup (June 12, 1972), Boston Edison Company implemented a comprehensive operational environmental monitoring program at Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station. This program (Reference 13)provides information on radioactivity and radiation levels in the environment for the purpose of:* demonstrating that doses to the general public and levels of radioactivity in the environment are within established limits and legal requirements;

• monitoring the transfer and long-term buildup of specific radionuclides in the environment to revise the monitoring program and environmental models in response to changing conditions; checking the condition of the station's operation, the adequacy of operation in relation to the adequacy of containment, and the effectiveness of effluent treatment so as to provide a mechanism of determining unusual or unforeseen conditions and, where appropriate, to trigger special environmental monitoring studies;* assessing the dose equivalent to the general public and the behavior of radioactivity released during the unlikely event of an accidental release; and,* determining whether or not the radiological impact on the environment and humans is significant.

Page 21 The Nuclear Regulatory Commission requires that Pilgrim Station provide monitoring of the plant environs for radioactivity that will be released as a result of normal operations, including anticipated operational occurrences, and from postulated accidents.

The NRC has established guidelines (Reference

14) that specify an acceptable monitoring program. The PNPS Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program was designed to meet and exceed these guidelines.

Guidance contained in the NRC's Radiological Assessment Branch Technical Position on Environmental Monitoring (Reference

15) has been used to improve the program. In addition, the program has incorporated the provisions of an agreement made with the Massachusetts Wildlife Federation (Reference 16). The program was supplemented by including improved analysis of shellfish and sediment at substantially higher sensitivity levels to verify the adequacy of effluent controls at Pilgrim Station.2.2 Environmental Monitoring Locations Sampling locations have been established by considering meteorology, population distribution, hydrology, and land use characteristics of the Plymouth area. The sampling locations are divided into two classes, indicator and control. Indicator locations are those that are expected to show effects from PNPS operations, if any exist. These locations were primarily selected on the basis of where the highest predicted environmental concentrations would occur. While the indicator locations are typically within a few kilometers of the plant, the control stations are generally located so as to be outside the influence of Pilgrim Station. They provide a basis on which to evaluate fluctuations at indicator locations relative to natural background radiation and natural radioactivity and fallout from prior nuclear weapons tests.The environmental sampling media collected in the vicinity of Pilgrim Station during 2007 included air particulate filters, charcoal cartridges, animal forage, vegetation, cranberries, seawater, sediment, Irish moss, shellfish, American lobster, and fishes. The sampling medium, station description, station number, distance, and direction for indicator and control samples are listed in Table 2.2-1. These sampling locations are also displayed on the maps shown in Figures 2.2-1 through 2.2-6.The radiation monitoring locations for the environmental TLDs are shown in Figures 2.2-1 through 2.2-4.The frequency of collection and types of radioactivity analysis are described in Pilgrim Station's ODCM, Sections 3/4.5.The land-based (terrestrial) samples and monitoring devices are collected by Entergy personnel.

The aquatic samples are collected by Marine Research, Inc. The radioactivity analysis of samples and the processing, of the environmental TLDs are performed by Entergy's J.A. Fitzpatrick Environmental Laboratory.

The frequency, types, minimum number of samples, and maximum lower limits of detection (LLD) for the analytical measurements, are specified in the PNPS ODCM. During 2003, a revision was made to the PNPS ODCM to standardize it to the model program described in NUREG-1302 (Reference

14) and the Branch Technical Position of 1979 (Reference 15). In accordance with this standardization, a number of changes occurred regarding the types and frequencies of sample collections.

In regard to terrestrial REMP sampling, routine collection and analysis of soil samples was discontinued in lieu of the extensive network of environmental TLDs around PNPS, and the weekly collection of air samples at 11 locations.

Such TLD monitoring and air sampling would provide an early indication of any potential deposition of radioactivity, and follow-up soil sampling could be performed on an as-needed basis. Also, with the loss of the indicator milk sample at the Plymouth County Farm and the lack of a sufficient substitute location that could provide suitable volumes for analysis, it was deemed unnecessary to continue to collect and analyze control samples of milk. Consequently, routine milk sampling was also dropped from the terrestrial sampling program. NRC guidance (Reference

14) contains provisions for collection of vegetation and forage samples in lieu of milk sampling.

Such samples have historically been collected near Pilgrim Station as part of the routine REMP program.In the area of marine sampling, a number of the specialized sampling and analysis requirements implemented as ýpart of the Agreement with the Massachusetts Wildlife Federation (Reference

16) for licensing of a second reactor at PNPS were dropped. This agreement, made in 1977, was predicated on Page 22 the construction of a second nuclear unit, and was set to expire in 1987. However, since the specialized requirements were incorporated into the PNPS Technical Specifications at the time, the requirements were continued.

When the ODCM was revised in 1999 in accordance with NRC Generic Letter 89-01, the sampling program description was relocated to the ODCM. When steps were taken in 2003 to standardize the PNPS ODCM to the NUREG-1302 model, the specialized marine sampling requirements were changed to those of the model program. These changes include the following:

• A sample of the surface layer of sediment is collected, as opposed to specialized depth-incremental sampling to 30 cm and subdividing cores into 2 cm increments.

• Standard LLD levels of about 150 to 180 pCi/kg were established for sediment, as opposed to the specialized LLDs of 50 pCi/kg." Specialized analysis of sediment for plutonium isotopes was removed.* Sampling of Irish moss, shellfish, and fish was rescheduled to a semiannual period, as opposed to a specialized quarterly sampling interval.* Analysis of only the edible portions of shellfish (mussels and clams), as opposed to specialized additional analysis of the shell portions.* Standard LLD levels of 130 to 260 pCi/kg were established for edible portions of shellfish, as opposed to specialized LLDs of 5 pCi/kg.Upon receipt of the analysis results from the analytical laboratories, the PNPS staff reviews the results. If the radioactivity concentrations are above the reporting levels, the NRC must be notified within 30 days.For radioactivity that is detected that is attributable to Pilgrim Station's operation, calculations are performed to determine the cumulative dose contribution for the current year. Depending upon the circumstances, a special study may also be completed (see Appendix A for 2007 special studies).

Most importantly, if radioactivity levels in the environment become elevated as a result of the station's operation, an investigation is performed and corrective actions are recommended to reduce the amount of radioactivity to as far below the legal limits as is reasonably achievable.

The radiological environmental sampling locations are reviewed annually, and modified if necessary.

A garden and milk animal census is performed every year to identify changes in the use of the environment in the vicinity of the station to permit modification of the monitoring and sampling locations.

The results of the 2007 Garden and Milk Animal Census are reported in Appendix C.The accuracy of the data obtained through Pilgrim Station's Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program is ensured through a comprehensive Quality Assurance (QA) programs.

PNPS's QA program has been established to ensure confidence in the measurements and results of the radiological monitoring program through:* Regular surveillances of the sampling and monitoring program;* An annual audit of the analytical laboratory by the sponsor companies;

• Participation in cross-check programs;* Use of blind duplicates for comparing separate analyses of the same sample; and,* Spiked sample analyses by the analytical laboratory.

QA audits and inspections of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program are performed by the NRC, American Nuclear Insurers, and by the PNPS Quality Assurance Department.

The J.A. Fitzpatrick Environmental Laboratory conducts extensive quality assurance and quality control programs.

The 2007 results of these programs are summarized in Appendix E. These results indicate that the analyses and measurements performed during 2007 exhibited acceptable precision and accuracy.Page 23

2.3 Interpretation

of Radioactivity Analyses Results The following pages summarize the analytical results of the environmental samples collected during 2007.Data for each environmental medium are included in a separate section. A table that summarizes the year's data for each type of medium follows a discussion of the sampling program and results. The unit of measurement for each medium is listed at the top of each table. The left hand column contains the radionuclides being reported, total number of analyses of that radionuclide, and the number of measurements that exceed ten times the yearly average for the control station(s).

The latter are classified as "non-routine" measurements.

The next column lists the Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) for those radionuclides that have detection capability requirements specified in the PNPS ODCM.Those sampling stations within the range of influence of Pilgrim Station and which could conceivably be affected by its operation are called "indicator" stations.

Distant stations, which are beyond plant influence, are called "control" stations.

Ambient radiation monitoring stations are broken down into four separate zones to aid in data analysis.For each sampling medium, each radionuclide is presented with a set of statistical parameters.

This set of statistical parameters includes separate analyses for (1) the indicator stations, (2) the station having the highest annual mean concentration, and (3) the control stations.

For eachof these three groups of data, the following values are calculated:

• The mean value of detectable concentrations, including only those values above LLD;* The standard deviation of the detectable measurements;

• The lowest and highest concentrations; and,* The number of positive measurements (activity which is three times greater than the standard deviation), out of the total number of measurements.

Each single radioactivity measurement datum is based on a single measurement and is reported as a concentration plus or minus one standard deviation.

The quoted uncertainty represents only the random uncertainty associated with the measurement of the radioactive decay process (counting statistics), and not the propagation of all possible uncertainties in the sampling and analysis process. A sample or measurement is considered to contain detectable radioactivity if the measured value (e.g., concentration) exceeds three times its associated standard deviation.

For example, a vegetation sample with a cesium-137 concentration of 85 +/- 21 pCi/kilogram would be considered "positive" (detectable Cs-137), whereas another sample with a concentration of 60 +/- 32 pCi/kilogram would be considered "negative", indicating no detectable cesium-137.

The latter sample may actually contain cesium-137, but the levels counted during its analysis were not significantly different than background levels.As an example of how to interpret data presented in the results tables, refer to the first entry on the table for air particulate filters (page 37). Gross beta (GR-B) analyses were performed on 569 routine samples.None of the samples exceeded ten times the average concentration at the control location.

The lower limit of detection (LLD) required by the ODCM is 0.01 pCi/m 3.For samples collected from the ten indicator stations, 517 out of 517 samples indicated detectable activity at the three-sigma (standard deviation) level. The mean concentration of gross beta activity in these'517 indicator station samples was 0.012 +/- 0.006 (1.2E-2 +/- 5.5E-3) pCi/m 3.Individual values ranged from 0.002 to 0.031 (2.OE-3 -3.1 E-2) pCi/m 3.The monitoring station which yielded the highest mean concentration was station WS (PNPS Medical Building), which yielded a mean concentration of 0.014 +/- 0.004 pCi/rn 3 , based on 52 observations.

Individual values ranged from 0.0028 to 0.026 pCi/m 3.Fifty-two of the fifty-two samples showed detectable activity at the three-sigma level.Page 24 At the control location, 52 out of 52 samples yielded detectable gross beta activity, for an average concentration of 0.014 +/- 0.005 pCi/m 3.Individual samples at the control location ranged from 0.0040 to 0.031 pCi/m 3.Referring to the last entry in the table, analyses for cesium-137 (Cs-137) were performed 44 times (quarterly composites for 11 stations

• 4 quarters).

No samples exceeded ten times the mean control station concentration.

The required LLD value Cs-1 37 in the PNPS ODCM is 0.06 pCi/m 3.At the indicator stations, all 40 of the Cs-137 measurements were below the detection level. The same was true for the four measurements made on samples collected from the control location.2.4 Ambient Radiation Measurements The primary technique for measuring ambient radiation exposure in the vicinity of Pilgrim Station involves posting environmental thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) at given monitoring locations and retrieving the TLDs after a specified time period. The TLDs are then taken to a laboratory and processed to determine the total amount of radiation exposure received over the period. Although TLDs can be used to monitor radiation exposure for short time periods, environmental TLDs are typically posted for periods of one to three months. Such TLD monitoring yields average exposure rate measurements over a relatively long time period. The PNPS environmental TLD monitoring program is based on a quarterly (three month)posting period, and a total of 110 locations are monitored using this technique.

In addition, 27 of the 110 TLDs are located onsite, within the PNPS protected/restricted area, where the general public does not have access.Out of the 440 TLDs (110 locations

• 4 quarters) posted during 2007, 430 were retrieved and processed.

Those TLDs missing from their monitoring locations were lost to storm damage, vandalism, and/or replacement of the utility poles to which they were attached, and their absence is discussed in Appendix D.The results for environmental TLDs located offsite, beyond the PNPS protected/restricted area fence, are presented in Table 2.4-1. Results from onsite TLDs posted within the restricted area are presented in Table 2.4-2. In addition to TLD results for individual locations, results from offsite TLDs were grouped according to geographic zone to determine average exposure rates as a function of distance.

These results are summarized in Table 2.4-3. All of the listed exposure values represent continuous occupancy (2190 hr/qtr or 8760 hr/yr).Annual exposure rates measured at offsite locations ranged from 43 to 281 mR/yr. The average exposure rate at control locations greater than 15 km from Pilgrim Station (i.e., Zone 4) was 65.2 +/- 9.2 mR/yr.When the 3-sigma confidence interval is calculated based on these control measurements, 99% of all measurements of background ambient exposure would be expected to be between 37 and 93 mR/yr. The results for all TLDs within 15,km (excluding those Zone 1 TLDs posted within the site boundary) ranged from 43 to 78 mR/yr, which compares favorably with the preoperational results of 37 -190 mR/yr.Inspection of onsite TLD results listed in Table 2.4-2 indicates that all of those TLDs located within the PNPS protected/restricted area yield exposure measurements higher than the average natural background.

Such results are expected due to the close proximity of these locations to radiation sources onsite. The radionuclide nitrogen-16 (N-16) contained in steam flowing through the turbine accounts for most of the exposure onsite. Although this radioactivity is contained within the turbine and is not released to the atmosphere, the "sky shine" which occurs from the turbine increases the ambient radiation levels in areas near the turbine building.A small number of offsite TLD locations in close proximity to the protected/restricted area indicated ambient radiation exposure above expected background levels. All of these locations are on Pilgrim Station controlled property, and experience exposure increases due to turbine sky shine (e.g., locations OA, TC, P01, and WS) and/or transit and storage of radwaste onsite (e.g., location BLW). A hypothetical maximum exposed member of the public accessing these near-site areas on Pilgrim Station controlled property for limited periods of time would receive a maximum dose of about 1.0 mrem/yr above their average ambient background dose of 65 mrem/yr.Page 25 One TLD, located in the basement of the Plymouth Memorial Hall, indicated an annual exposure of 76 mR in 2007. The higher exposure within the building at this location is due to the close proximity of stone building material, which contains higher levels of naturally-occurring radioactivity, -as well as from the buildup of radon in this area of the building.It should be noted that several of the TLDs used to calculate the Zone 1 averages presented in Table 2.4-3 are located on Pilgrim Station property.

If the Zone 1 value is corrected for the near-site TLDs (those less than 0.6 km from the Reactor Building), the Zone 1 mean falls from a value of 79.7 +/- 45.0 mR/yr to 64.6 +/- 8.3 mR/yr. Additionally, exposure rates measured at areas beyond Entergy's control did not indicate any increase in ambient exposure from Pilgrim Station operation.

For example, the annual exposure rate calculated from the two TLDs adjacent to the nearest offsite residence 0.80 kilometers (0.5 miles) southeast of the PNPS Reactor Building was 61.8 +/- 9.3 mR/yr, which compares quite well with the average control location exposure of 65.2 +/- 9.2 mR/yr.In conclusion, measurements of ambient radiation exposure around Pilgrim Station do not indicate any significant increase in exposure levels. Although some increases in ambient radiation exposure level were apparent on Entergy property very close to Pilgrim Station, there were no measurable increases at areas beyond Entergy's control.2.5 Air Particulate Filter Radioactivity Analyses Airborne particulate radioactivity is sampled by drawing a stream of air through a glass fiber filter that has a very high efficiency for collecting airborne particulates.

These samplers are operated continuously, and the resulting filters are collected weekly for analysis.

Weekly filter samples are analyzed for gross beta radioactivity, and the filters are then composited on a quarterly basis for each location for gamma spectroscopy analysis.

PNPS uses this technique to monitor 10 locations in the Plymouth area, along with the control location in East Weymouth.Out of 572 filters (11 locations

• 52 weeks), 569 samples were collected and analyzed during 2007. There were a few instances where power was lost or pumps failed during the course of the sampling period at some of the air sampling stations, resulting in lower than normal sample volumes. All of these discrepancies are noted in Appendix D.The results of the analyses performed on these 569 filter samples are summarized in Table 2.5-1. Trend plots for the gross beta radioactivity levels at the near station, property line, and offsite airborne monitoring locations are shown in Figures 2.5-1, 2.5-2 and 2.5-3, respectively.

Gross beta radioactivity was detected in 569 of the filter samples collected, including 52 of the 52 control location samples. This gross beta activity arises from naturally-occurring radionuclides such as radon decay daughter products.

Naturally-occurring beryllium-7 was detected in 42 out of 44 of the quarterly composites analyzed with gamma spectroscopy.

Naturally-occurring potassium-40 (K-40) was detected in 6 of 40 indicator samples, and in one of four control samples. No airborne radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.Page 26

2.6 Charcoal

Cartridae Radioactivity Analyses Airborne radioactive iodine is sampled by drawing a stream of air through a charcoal cartridge after it has passed through the high efficiency glass fiber filter. As is the case with the air particulate filters, these samplers are operated continuously, and the resulting cartridges are collected weekly for analysis.

Weekly cartridge samples are analyzed for radioactive iodine. The same eleven locations monitored for airborne particulate radioactivity are also sampled for airborne radioiodine.

Out of 572 cartridges (11 locations

• 52 weeks), 569 samples were collected and analyzed during 2007.There were a few instances where power was lost or pumps failed during the course of the sampling period at some of the air sampling stations, resulting in lower than normal sample volumes. All of these discrepancies are noted in Appendix D. Despite such events during 2007, required LLDs were met on 569 of the 569 cartridges collected during 2007.The results of the analyses performed on these charcoal cartridges are summarized in Table 2.6-1. No airborne radioactive iodine was detected in any of the charcoal cartridges collected.

2.7 Milk Radioactivity Analyses In July 2002, the Plymouth County Farm ceased operation of its dairy facility.

This was historically the only dairy facility near Pilgrim Station, and had been sampled continuously since Pilgrim Station began operation in 1972. Although attempts were made to obtain samples from an alternate indicator location within 5 miles as specified in NRC guidance (Reference 14), a suitable substitute location could not be found. Thus, milk collection at an indicator location was discontinued in July 2002, but control samples of milk continued to be collected and analyzed in the event an indicator location could be secured. In conjunction with the standardization of the ODCM during 2003, the decision was made to remove milk sampling from the PNPS Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program since suitable no milk sampling location existed in the vicinity of Pilgrim Station.The nearest milk animals to Pilgrim Station are located at the Plimoth Plantation, approximately

2.5 miles

west of PNPS, in a relatively upwind direction.

Due to the limited number of milk animals available, this location is not able to provide the necessary volume of 4 gallons of milk every two weeks to facilitate the milk sampling program and meet the required detection sensitivities.

Although milk sampling is not performed at Plimoth Plantation, effluent dose calculations are performed for this location assuming the presence of a milk ingestion pathway, as part of the annual Effluent and Waste Disposal Report (Reference 17).As included in a provision in standard ODCM guidance in NUREG-1302 (Reference 13), sampling and analysis of vegetation from the offsite locations calculated to have the highest D/Q deposition factor can be performed in lieu of milk sampling.

Such vegetation sampling has been routinely performed at Pilgrim Station as part of the radiological environmental monitoring program, and the results of this sampling are presented in Section 2.9.2.8 Forage Radioactivity Analyses Samples of animal forage (hay) are collected from the Plymouth County Farm, a location along Doten Road, and from a control location in Bridgewater.

Samples are collected annually and analyzed by gamma spectroscopy.

Five samples of forage were collected and analyzed as required during 2007. Results of the gamma analyses of forage samples are summarized in Table 2.8-1. Naturally-occurring beryllium-7, potassium-40, radium-226, and actinium/thorium-228 were detected in forage samples collected during 2007. Cesium-137 from weapons testing fallout was detected in one sample collected from a control location in West Bridgewater.

No radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.Page 27

2.9 VeqetableNegetation

Radioactivity Analyses Samples of vegetables had historically been collected from the Plymouth County Farm and from the control location in Bridgewater.

However, some problems were encountered in collection of crop samples during 2007. Due to a loss of state funding at the Bridgewater Correctional Facility, garden samples were not available from this source. An alternate sampling location (Hanson Farm) was identified in the general vicinity in Bridgewater, and was used as a source of control vegetable samples. In addition, samples of vegetables or leafy vegetation were collected at or near a number of gardens identified during the Annual Land Use Census. Results of this census are discussed in Appendix C. In addition to these garden samples, naturally-growing vegetation is collected from locations yielding the highest D/Q deposition factors. All of the various samples of vegetables/vegetation are collected annually and analyzed by gamma spectroscopy.

Seventeen samples of vegetables/vegetation were collected and analyzed as required during 2007.Results of the gamma analyses of these samples are summarized in Table 2.9-1. Naturally-occurring beryllium-7, potassium-40, radium-226, and actinium/thorium-228 were identified in most of the samples collected.

Cesium-137 was also detected in four out of 17 samples of naturally-growing vegetation collected, including those from the control locations, with concentrations ranging from 39 to 56 pCi/kg.These Cs-137 results are in the range expected for weapons-testing fallout (75 to 145 pCi/kg), and are not indicative, of any releases associated with Pilgrim Station. No radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.2.10 Cranberry Radioactivity Analyses Samples of cranberries are routinely collected from two bogs in the Plymouth area and from the control location in Kingston.

Samples of cranberries are collected annually and analyzed by gamma spectroscopy.

In 2002, the bog at Manomet Point ceased harvesting operations, and a sample was collected from an alternate location along Beaver Dam Road. This discrepancy is noted in Appendix D.Three samples of cranberries were collected and analyzed during 2007. Results of the gamma analyses of cranberry samples are summarized in Table 2.10-1. Cranberry samples collected during 2007 yielded, detectable levels of naturally-occurring potassium-40 and radium-226.

No radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.2.11 Soil Radioactivity Analyses In the past, a survey of radioactivity in soil had been conducted once every three years at the 10 air sampling stations in the Plymouth area and the control location in East Weymouth.

However, in conjunction with standardization of the ODCM during 2003, the soil survey effort was abandoned in favor of the extensive TLD monitoring effort at Pilgrim Station. Prior to ending the soil survey effort, there had been no apparent trends in radioactivity measurements at these locations.

2.12 Surface Water Radioactivity Analyses Samples of surface water are routinely collected from the discharge canal, Bartlett Pond in Manomet and from the control location at Powder Point Bridge in Duxbury. Grab samples are collected weekly from the Bartlett Pond and Powder Point Bridge locations.

Samples of surface water are composited every four weeks and analyzed by gamma spectroscopy and low-level iodine analysis.

These monthly composites are further composited on a quarterly basis and tritium analysis is performed on this quarterly sample.Page 28 A total of 36 samples (3 locations

• 12 sampling periods) of surface water were collected and analyzed as required during 2007. Results of the analyses of water samples are summarized in Table 2.12-1.Naturally-occurring potassium-40, radium-226, and actinium/thorium-228 were detected in several of the samples, especially those composed primarily of seawater.

No radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.2.13 Sediment Radioactivity Analyses Samples of sediment are routinely collected from the outfall area of the discharge canal and from three other locations in the Plymouth area (Manomet Point, Plymouth Harbor and Plymouth Beach), and from control locations in Duxbury and Marshfield.

Samples are collected twice per year and are analyzed by gamma spectroscopy.

Twelve samples of sediment were collected during 2007. Gamma analyses were performed on these samples. Results of the gamma analyses of sediment samples are summarized in Table 2.13-1. Naturally-occurring potassium-40, radium-226, and actinium/thorium-228 were detected in a number of the samples.No radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.2.14 Irish Moss Radioactivity Analyses Samples of Irish moss are collected from the discharge canal outfall and two other locations in the Plymouth area (Manomet Point, Ellisville), and from a control location in Marshfield (Green Harbor). All samples are collected on a semiannual basis, and processed in the laboratory for gamma spectroscopy analysis.Eight samples of Irish moss scheduled for collection during 2007 were obtained and analyzed.

Results of the gamma analyses of these samples are summarized in Table 2.14-1. Naturally-occurring beryllium-7, potassium-40, radium-226, and actinium/thorium-228 were detected in a number of the samples. No radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.2.15 Shellfish Radioactivity Analyses Samples of blue mussels, soft-shell clams and quahogs are collected from the discharge canal outfall'and two other locations in the Plymouth area (Manomet Point, Plymouth Harbor), and from control locations in Duxbury and Marshfield.

All samples are collected on a semiannual basis, and edible portions processed in the laboratory for gamma spectroscopy analysis.Ten of the 12 required samples of shellfish meat scheduled for collection during 2007 were obtained and analyzed.

Due to declines in mussel populations and recent storm damage at Manomet Point, samples were not available at this location during the two sampling periods of the year. Results of the gamma analyses of these samples are summarized in Table 2.15-1. Naturally-occurring potassium-40 and radium-226 were detected in a number of the samples. No radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.Page 29 2.16 Lobster Radioactivity Analyses Samples of lobsters are routinely collected from the outfall area of the discharge canal and from the control location in Duxbury. Samples are collected monthly from the discharge canal outfall from June through September and annually from the control location.

All lobster samples are normally analyzed by gamma spectroscopy.

Five samples of lobsters were collected as required during 2007. Results of the gamma analyses of these samples are summarized in Table 2.16-1. Naturally-occurring potassium-40, radium-226, and actinium/thorium-228 were detected in a number of the samples. No radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.2.17 Fish Radioactivity Analyses Samples of fish are routinely collected from the area at the outfall of the discharge canal and from the control locations in Cape Cod Bay and Buzzard's Bay. Fish species are grouped into four major categories according to their biological requirements and mode of life. These major categories and the representative species are as follows:* Group I -Bottom Oriented:

Winter Flounder, Yellowtail Flounder* Group II -Near-Bottom Distribution:

Tautog, Cunner, Pollock, Atlantic Cod, Hake* Group III -Anadromous:

Alewife, Smelt, Striped Bass" Group IV -Coastal Migratory:

Bluefish, Herring, Menhaden, Mackerel Group I and II fishes are sampled on a semiannual basis from the outfall area of the discharge canal, and on an annual basis from a control location.

Group III and IV fishes are sampled annually from the discharge canal outfall and control location.

All samples of fish are analyzed by gamma spectroscopy.

Due to declining fish stock and the migration of fish to deeper water during colder seasons, samples of Groups II fishes could not be collected during the either half of the year. Although repeated and concerted efforts were made to collect the fish in the vicinity of the Discharge Canal Outfall, no samples could be obtained.

Additional details regarding these discrepancies can be found in-Appendix D.Nine samples of fish were collected during 2007. Results of the gamma analyses of fish samples collected are summarized in Table 2.17-1. The only radionuclides detected in any of the samples were naturally-occurring potassium-40, radium-226, and actinium/thorium-228.

No radioactivity attributable to Pilgrim Station was detected in any of the samples collected during 2007, and results of any detectable naturally-occurring, radioactivity were similar to those observed in the preoperational monitoring program.Page 30 Table 2.2-1 Routine Radiological Environmental Sampling Locations Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station, Plymouth, MA Description No Code Distance Direction Air Particulate Filters, Charcoal Cartridges Medical Building 00 WS 0.2 km SSE East Rocky Hill Road 01 ER 0.9 km SE West Rocky Hill Road 03 WR 0.8 km WNW Property Line 06 PL 0.5 km NNW Pedestrian Bridge 07 PB 0.2 km N Overlook Area 08 OA 0.1 km W East Breakwater 09 EB 0.5 km ESE Cleft Rock 10 CR 1.3 km SSW Plymouth Center 15 PC 6.7, km W Manomet Substation 17 MS 3.6 km SSE East Weymouth Control 21 EW 40 km NW Forage Plymouth County Farm 11 CF 5.6 km W Whitman Farm Control 12 WF 34 km WNW Whipple Farm 43 WH 2.9 km SW Vegetation Plymouth County Farm 11 CF 5.6 km W Bridgewater Farm Control 27 BF 31 km W Cranberries Manomet Point Bog 13 MR 3.9 km SE Bartlett Road Bog 14 BR 4.3 km SSE Pine Street Bog Control 23 PS 26 km WNW Page 31 T Table 2.2-1 (continued)

SUMMARY

OF RADIOLOGICAL IMPACT ON HUMANS The radiological impact to humans from the Pilgrim Station's radioactive liquid and gaseous releases has been estimated using two methods:* calculations based on measurements of plant effluents; and* calculations based on measurements of environmental samples.The first method utilizes data from the radioactive effluents (measured at the point of release) together with conservative models that calculate the dispersion and transport of radioactivity through the environment to humans (Reference 7). The second method is based on actual measurements of radioactivity in the environmental samples and on dose conversion factors recommended by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

The measured types and quantities of radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents released from Pilgrim Station during 2007 were reported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, copies of which are provided in Appendix B. The measured levels of radioactivity in the environmental, samples that required dose calculations are listed in Appendix A.The maximum individual dose from liquid effluents was calculated using the following radiation exposure pathways:* shoreline external radiation during fishing and recreation at the Pilgrim Station Shorefront;

• external radiation from the ocean during boating and swimming; and* ingestion of fish and shellfish.

For gaseous effluents, the maximum individual dose was calculated using the following radiation exposure pathways:* external radiation from cloud shine and submersion in gaseous effluents;

• inhalation of airborne radioactivity;

• external radiation from soil deposition;

• consumption of vegetables; and* consumption of milk and meat.The results from the dose calculations based on PNPS operations are presented in Table 3.0-1. The dose assessment data presented were taken from the "Radioactive Effluent Release Report" for the period of January 1 through December 31, 2007 (Reference 17).Page 64 Table 3.0-1 Radiation Doses from 2007 Pilgrim Station Operations Maximum Individual Dose From Exposure Pathway -mrem/yr Gaseous Liquid Ambient Receptor Effluents*

• • Ambient radiation dose for the hypothetical maximum-exposed individual at a location on PNPS property yielding highest ambient radiation exposure value as measured with TLDs.Two federal agencies establish dose limits to protect the public from radiation and radioactivity.

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) specifies a whole body dose limit of 100 mrem/yr to be received by the maximum exposed member of the general public. This limit is set forth in Section 1301, Part 20, Title 10, of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (10CFR20).

By comparison, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) limits the annual whole body dose to 25 mrem/yr, which is specified in Section 10, Part 190, Title 40, of the Code of Federal Regulations (40CFR1 90).Another useful "gauge" of radiation exposure is provided by the amount of dose a typical individual receives each year from natural and man-made (e.g., diagnostic X-rays) sources of radiation.

The typical American receives 300 to 400 mrem/yr from such sources.As can be seen from the doses resulting from Pilgrim Station Operations during 2007, all values are well within the federal limits specified by the NRC and EPA. In addition, the calculated doses from PNPS operation represent only a fraction of a percent of doses from natural and man-made radiation.

In conclusion, the radiological impact of Pilgrim Station operations, whether based on actual environmental measurements or calculations made from effluent releases, would yield doses well within any federal dose limits set by the NRC or EPA. Such doses represent only a small percentage of the typical annual dose received from natural and man-made sources of radiation.

5E-08 gCi/mL lodines: 1 E-06 gCi/m L Noble Gases: 1 E-05 gCi/mL All Others: 5E-07 iiCi/mL Page 77 APPENDIX C LAND USE CENSUS RESULTS The annual land use census for gardens and milk and meat animals in the'vicinity of Pilgrim Station was performed between July 17 and September 21, 2007. The census was conducted by driving along each improved road/street in the Plymouth area within 5 kilometers (3 miles) of Pilgrim Station to survey for visible gardens with an area of greater than 500 square feet. In compass sectors where no gardens were identified within 5 km (SSW, WNW, NW, and NNW sectors), the survey was extended to 8 km (5 mi). A total of 30 gardens were identified in.the vicinity of Pilgrim Station. In addition, the Town of Plymouth Animal Inspector was contacted for information regarding milk and meat animals.Atmospheric deposition (D/Q) values at the locations of the identified gardens were compared to those for the existing sampling program locations.

These comparisons enabled PNPS personnel to ascertain the best locations for monitoring for releases of airborne radionuclides.

Gardens yielding higher D/Q values than those currently in the sampling program were also sampled as part of the radiological environmental monitoring program.Based on assessment of the gardens identified during the 2007 land use census, samples of garden-grown vegetables or naturally-growing vegetation (e.g. grass, leaves from bushes or trees, etc.) were collected at or near the closest gardens in each of the following landward compass sectors. These locations, and their distance and direction relative to the PNPS Reactor Building, are as follows: Rocky Hill Road 0.9 km SE (garden not grown in 2007; however, historic location)Brook Road 2.9 km SSE Beaver Dam Road 3.4 km S Bay Colony-Drive 3.1 km WSW Clay Hill Road 1.6 km W In addition to these special sampling locations identified and sampled in conjunction with the 2007 land use census, samples were also collected at or near the Plymouth County Farm (5.6 km W), and from control locations in Bridgewater (31 km W) and Norton (49 km W).Samples of naturally-growing vegetation were also collected-in the-vicinity of the site boundary locations' yielding the highest deposition (D/Q) factors for each of the two release points. These locations, and their distance and'direction relative to the PNPS Reactor Building, are as follows: Highest Main Stack D/Q: 1.5 km SSW.Highest Reactor Building Vent D/Q: 0.5 km ESE 2n highest D/Q, both release points: 1.1.km S No new milk'or meat animals were identified during the land use census. In addition, the Town of Plymouth Animal Inspector stated that their office is not aware of any animals at locations other than the Plimoth Plantation.

Samples of milk and forage had historically been collected from the Plymouth County Farm, and forage samples from that location werepart of the 2007 sampling program in lieu of milk sampling, as allowed in NRC guidance (Reference 14). Although milk sampling is not performed at Plimoth Plantation, effluent dose calculations are performed for this location assuming the presence of a milk ingestion pathway, as part of the annual Effluent and Waste Disposal Report (Reference 17).Page 78 APPENDIX D ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM DISCREPANCIES There were a number of instances during 2007 in which inadvertent issues were encountered in the collection of environmental samples. All of these issues were minor in nature and did not have an adverse effect on the results or integrity of the monitoring program. Details of these various problems are given below.During 2007, ten thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) were not recovered from their assigned locations during the quarterly retrieval process. During the first quarter retrieval, the TLD at Hyannis Road (HR) was lost when the utility pole to which it had been attached was replaced.

During the second quarter, the TLDs at Hall's Bog (HB) and Manomet Elementary (ME) were not accessible due to heavy growth of vegetation and briars. During the third quarter exchange, Boat Launch West (BLW) was lost to storm damage; TLDs at Station B and Station J were lost when the tress to which they had been mounted were cut down, and the TLDs at Yankee Village (YV) and Route 3 Overpass (RP) were lost when the utility poles to which they had been mounted were replaced.

During the fourth quarter exchange, the TLD at Sherman Airport was lost to storm damage, and the TLD at Station H was inaccessible due to heavy snow and a downed tree.The 4th Quarter 2008 TLD at Station H was recovered during the retrieval of 1 st Quarter 2008 TLDs in April 2008, but results were not available at the time of this report. Despite these losses, the 430 TLDs that were collected (98%) allowed for adequate assessment of the ambient radiation levels in the vicinity of Pilgrim Station.Within the air sampling program, there were a few instances in which continuous sampling was interrupted at the eleven airborne sampling locations during 2007. Most of these interruptions were due to short-term power losses and were sporadic and of limited duration (less than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> out of the weekly sampling period). Such events did not have any significant impact on the scope and purpose of the sampling program, and lower limits of detection (LLDs) were met for both particulates and iodine-131 on 569 of the 569 filters/cartridges.

The configuration of air samplers that had been in use at Pilgrim Station since the early 1980s, was replaced between June and August of 2007. Both the pumps and dry gas meters were replaced, and operating experience since changing over to the new configuration has been favorable.

Although the occurrence of pump failures and gas meter problems have been largely eliminated, the new configuration is still subject to trips of the ground fault interrupt circuit (GFCI). The following table contains a listing of larger problems, encountered with air sampling stations during 2007, many of which resulted in loss of more than 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> in a sampling period.Location Sampling Period Hours Lost Problem Description PL 01/16 to 01/24 172 of 192 Pump failed and blew fuse; no backup sampler available PL 01/24 to 01/31 168 of 168 No backup sampler available 01/24; replaced 01/31 PB 04/17 to 04/24 48 of 168 Power secured to hypo lab for refueling outage', restored PL 07/10 to 07/17 72 of 194 Old configuration pump failed and blew fuse; replaced with new configuration pump MS 07/24 to 08/01 50 of 192 Old configuration pump failed and blew fuse; replaced with new configuration pump EW 09/25 to 10/02 142 of 168 GFCI outlet tripped during storm; reset EB 10/09 to 10/16 No Hours Gas meter failed; volume estimated from run time Lost multiplied by flow rate; replaced defective meter PL 12/11 to 12/26 No Hours Sampler location inaccessible due to blizzard; filter left on Lost for 2-week period CR 12/11 to 12/26 No Hours Sampler location inaccessible due to blizzard; filter left on I Lost for 2-week period Page 79 Despite the lower-than-normal sampling volumes in the various instances involving power interruptions and equipment failures, required LLDs were met on 569 of the 569 particulate filters, and 569 of the 569 of the iodine cartridges collected during 2007. When viewed collectively during the entire year of 2007, the following sampling recoveries were achieved in the airborne sampling program: Location Recovery Location Recovery Location Recovery WS 99.9% PB 99.2% PC 100.0%ER 99.9% OA 99.9% MS 99.3%WR 99.9% EB 99.6% EW 98.4%PL 95.0% CR 100.0%An alternate location had to be found for sampling control vegetable samples in the Bridgewater area. In past years, samples had been collected at the Bridgewater County Farm, associated with the Bridgewater Correctional Facility.

Due to loss of state funding for garden projects during 2006, no garden was grown.An alternate location was found at the Hanson Farm in Bridgewater, located in the same compass sector, and at approximately the same distance as the Bridgewater County Farm. As expected for control samples, vegetables collected at this location only contained naturally-occurring radioactivity (Be-7, K-40, and Ac/Th-228).

Some problems were encountered in collection of crop samples during 2007. Crops which had normally been sampled in the past (lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes, and onions) were not grown at the Plymouth County Farm (CF) during 2007. Pumpkins and squash were substituted for the edible 'hard' vegetables, whereas samples of naturally-growing leafy vegetation (grass, leaves from trees and. bushes, etc.) were substituted for the lettuce. No radionuclides attributed to PNPS operations were detected in any of the samples.Naturally-growing leafy vegetation (grass, leaves from trees and bushes, etc.) was collected near some gardens identified during the annual land use census. Due to the unavailability of crops grown in several of these gardens, these substitute samples were collected as near as practicable to the gardens of interest.

No radionuclides attributed to PNPS operations were detected in any of the samples. Additional details regarding the land use census can be found in Appendix C of this report.The cranberry bog at Manomet Point (MP) was not in production during 2007, so a sample could not be obtained from this location.

Samples were collected as required from the other indicator bog located along Bartlett Road (BT), and an additional sample was collected from a bog located along Beaver Dam Road.Again, the extensive sampling of leafy vegetation would provide a better indication of deposition radionuclides, so the loss of the Manomet Point sample does not adversely affect overall monitoring efforts. A similar situation occurred in the case of the control location for cranberries.

In the past, the control sample of cranberries had been collected from the Pine Street Bog in Halifax., Since this bog was not in production during 2007, a substitute sample was collected from a bog in Kingston, beyond the influence of Pilgrim Station.Several problems were encountered with the continuous composite collection of water samples at the PNPS discharge canal during 2007. The problems fell largely into two categories.

Several of the failures to collect weekly composite samples early in the year resulted from failure of the Sigma composite sampler. The older model in use at Pilgrim Station was obsolete, and no replacement parts were available.

A new composite sampler was ordered and installed in early February.The second major category of failures was due to problems with the lift pump in the discharge canal. The composite sampler itself is unreliable to lift a sample through the large vertical head from the discharge canal up to the hypo lab located in the foot of the bridge over the discharge canal. To overcome the problem with large vertical lift, a submersible pump is suspended in the canal and is continuously power to pump water up to the hypo lab, and the composite sample is collected from a small stilling well. However, any time the lift pump fails, or if power is lost to the lift pump, there is inadequate flow into the stilling well, and the composite sampler is unable to collect a sample.Page 80 The following table lists the instances during 2007 during which problems were encountered in collecting composite sample from the PNPS discharge canal.Sampling Period Problem Description 01/16 to 02/06 Sigma composite sampler failed; obsolete unit, with no parts available for rebuild;ordered and installed new composite sampler on 02/05; grab samples collected on 01/16, 01/24, 01/31, and 02/06 04/17 to 04/24 Power secured to hypo lab for refueling outage; restored power 05/01 to 05/02 GFCI tripped; reset power and restored normal sampling; adequate sample volume collected 06/27 to 07/03 Internal component of composite sampler failed; ordered new component; collected I grab sample on 07/03 08/14 to 08/21 Internal component of composite sampler failed; replaced failed component; collected grab sample on 08/21 08/26 to 08/28 Lift pump from discharge canal failed resulting in loss of flow to composite sampler;ordered new lift pump; grab sample collected 08/28.09/25 to 10/02 Peristaltic tubing in composite sampler failed due to normal wear; replaced defective tubing; collected grab sample on 10/02 10/23 to 11/23 GFCI tripped due to defective lift pump; ordered new lift pump; collected grab samples on 10/31, 11/06, 11/13, 11/19, and 11/23 There were a number of problems encountered with collection of marine samples during 2007. Several problems were related to declining stocks, adverse weather, and coastal storm damage. Samples of Group II fishes (near-bottom distribution, such as tautog and cunner) were not available for sampling in the vicinity of the discharge outfall during the either sampling period of 2007. In addition to declining fish populations in Cape Cod Bay in general, such fish species move to deeper water during colder months, and were not available.

Repeated and concerted efforts were made by the marine sampling contractor, but failed to produce fish samples during either period. The mussel beds at Manomet Point have been showing declining populations during the past few years, and coupled with damage from coastal storms, the sampling contractor was not able to collect mussels from this location during either sampling period of 2007. Nearby areas have been'surveyed for availability of mussels, but none have been located.In summary, the various problems encountered in collecting and analyzing environmental samples during 2007 were relatively minor when viewed in the context of the entire monitoring program. These discrepancies were promptly corrected when issue was identified.

None of the discrepancies resulted in an adverse impact on the overall monitoring program.Page 81 APPENDIX E J.A. FITZPATRICK INTERLABORATORY COMPARISON PROGRAM E.1 Program Description The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM), Part 1, Section 5.3 requires that the licensee participate in an Interlaboratory Comparison Program. The Interlaboratory Comparison Program shall include sample media for which samples are routinely collected and for which comparison samples are commercially available.

Participation in an Interlaboratory Comparison Program ensures that independent checks on theprecision and accuracy of the measurement of radioactive material in the environmental samples are performed as part of the Quality Assurance Program for environmental monitoring.

To fulfill the requirement for an Interlaboratory Comparison Program, the JAF Environmental Laboratory has engaged the services of two independent laboratories to provide quality assurance comparison samples. The two laboratories are Analytics, Incorporated in Atlanta, Georgia and the U.S. Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, Maryland.Analytics supplies sample media as blind sample spikes, which contain certified levels of radioactivity unknown to the analysis laboratory.

These samples are prepared and analyzed by the JAF Environmental Laboratory using standard laboratory procedures.

Analytics issues a statistical summary report of the results. The JAF Environmental Laboratory uses predetermined acceptance criteria methodology for evaluating the laboratory's performance.

In addition to the Analytics Program, the JAF Environmental Laboratory participates in the NEI/NIST Measurement Assurance Program. In 1987, the nuclear industry established a Measurement Assurance Program at the National Bureau of Standards (now the National Institute of Standards and Technology) to provide sponsoring nuclear utilities an independent verification, traceable to NIST, of their capability to make accurate measurements of radioactivity, as described in NRC Regulatory Guide 4.15. The program includes distribution to sponsoring utilities.

The samples are prepared by NIST to present specific challenges to participating laboratories.

NIST supplies sample media as blind sample spikes. These samples are prepared and analyzed by the JAF Environmental Laboratory and the results are submitted to the Entergy Nuclear representative for evaluating the laboratory's performance.

The performance results along with the NIST Report of Test (certifies what activities are present in the sample) are forwarded to the laboratory.

The JAF Environmental Laboratory also analyzes laboratory blanks. The analysis of laboratory blanks provides a means to detect and measure radioactive contamination of analytical samples.The analysis of analytical blanks also provides information on the adequacy of background subtraction.

Laboratory blank results are analyzed using control charts.Page 82 E.2 Program Schedule Water Gross Beta 1 Water Tritium 3 Water 1-131 4 Water Mixed Gamma 4 1 Air Gross Beta 3 Air 1-131 4 Air Mixed Gamma 2 1 Milk 1-131 3 Milk Mixed Gamma 3 Soil Mixed Gamma 1 Vegetation Mixed Gamma 2 TOTAL SAMPLE INVENTORY 30 2 E.3 Acceptance Criteria Each sample result is evaluated to determine the accuracy and precision of the laboratory's analysis result. The sample evaluation method is discussed below.E.3.1 Sample Results Evaluation Samples provided by Analytics and NIST are evaluated using what is specified as the NRC method. This method is based on the calculation of the ratio of results reported by the participating laboratory (QC result) to the Vendor Laboratory Known value (reference result).An Environmental Laboratory analytical result is evaluated using the following calculation:

The value for the error resolution is calculated, Error Resolution

= Reference Result Reference Results Error (1 sigma)-Using the appropriate row under the Error Resolution column in Table E.3.1 below, a corresponding Ratio of Agreement interval is given.Page 83 The value for the ratio is then calculated.

Ratio of agreement QC Result Reference Result If the value falls within the agreement interval, the result is acceptable.

TABLE E.3.1$ d& RROR RtOLUTON7 RIATIO OF AGREEMENT< 4 No Comparison 4 to 7 0.5-2.0 8 to 15 0'.6-1.66 16 to 50 0.75-1.33 51 to 200 0.8-1.25>200 0.85-1.18 This acceptance test is generally referred to as the "NRC" method. The acceptance criterion is contained in Procedure EN-CY-102.

The NRC method generally results in an acceptance range of approximately

+/-25% of the Known value when applied to sample results from the Analytics and NIST Interlaboratory Comparison Program. This method is used as the procedurally required assessment method and requires the generation of a deviation from QA/QC program report when results are unacceptable.
