OAK RIDGE INSTITUTE

FOR SCIENCE AND EDUCATION

February 2,2006 Mr. Jim Kottan US. Nuclear Regulatory Commission

Regon I 475 Allendale

Road IOng of Prussia, PA 19406 SUBJECT: SECOND INTERIM REPORT FOR REQUESTED

ANALYSES OF EIGHT WATER SAMPLES, SET FOURTEEN, FROM THE INDIAN POINT POWER STATION, BUCHANAN, NEW YORK [INSPECTION

REPORT NO. 050-247/2006-0071 [RFTA

NO. 06-0011 Dear Mr. Kottan: The Oak hdge Institute for

Science and Education (ORISE) received set 14, whch consisted

of eight water samples received

on September

26,2006 from the InQan Point Power Station in

Buchanan, New York. Sample analysis was

initiated

based on your previous

hection for handling samples from hs facihty. The final report was delayed

untd technical concerns about

plutonium

in water samples were resolved through analytical testing conducted

by RaQological

and Environmental

Sciences Laboratory.

Sample identification

and collection data for the samples addressed

in &Is report are presented

in Table 1. Gamma spectroscopy, the hard-to- detect betas (iron-55, nickel-63, and tritium), technetium-99, total radiostrontium, alpha spectroscopy, plutonium-241, and carbon-14

data are provided in Tables

2 through 8, respectively.

The pertinent procedure references

are provided in each specific table.

ORISE's Quality Control (QC) requirements

were met for these

analyses.

The QC files are available for your review upon request. ORISE has removed the Ni-59 data

due to problems with the calculation associated with

the concentration

of hs ralonuclide.

ORISE is Qscontinuing the reporting of

Ni-59 data untd &Is problem can be resolved.

The water samples

were processed

using a deviation

to the sample preparation procedure, SP3, Revision 4. The water samples were

frltered through 0.45 micron filter papers. An aliquot was removed for tritium

and carbon-14 before

aciQfication.

An aliquot was removed for alpha analysis and the pH was adjusted to approximately zero using concentrated

nitric acid (HN03) and a few drops of hydrofluoric

acid (HF). A pH of zero and a few drops of HF should ensure

that any plutonium that

may be in the sample

remains in solution.

ORISE analyzed the filtered solid portion of each sample for all the requested alpha isotopes.
