1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report summarizes and interprets results of the Radiation Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) conducted by Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, Red Wing, Minnesota, during the period January - December, 2002. This program monitors the levels of radioactivity in the air, terrestrial, and aquatic environments in order to assess the impact of the plant on its surroundings.
Tabulations of the individual analyses made during the year are not included in this report.
These data are included in a reference document (Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory, 2003b) available at Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant.
Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant is located on the Mississippi River in Goodhue County, Minnesota, owned by Xcel Energy Corporation and operated by Nuclear Management Company, LLC. The plant has two 575 MWe pressurized water reactors. Unit 1 achieved initial criticality on 1 December 1973. Commercial operation at full power began on 16 December 1973. Unit 2 achieved initial criticality on 17 December 1974. Commercial operation at full power began on 21 December 1974.

3.0 RADIATION ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM (REMP) 3.1 Program Design and Data Interpretation The purpose of the Radiation Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) at the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant is to assess the impact of the plant on its environment. For this purpose, samples are collected from the air, terrestrial, and aquatic environments and analyzed for radioactive content. In addition, ambient gamma radiation levels are monitored by thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs).
Sources of environmental radiation include the following:
(1) Natural background radiation arising from cosmic rays and primordial radionuclides; (2) Fallout from atmospheric nuclear detonations; (3) Releases from nuclear power plants; (4) Industrial and medical radioactive waste; and (5) Fallout from nuclear accidents.
In interpreting the data, effects due to the plant must be distinguished from those due to other sources.
A major interpretive aid in assessment of these effects is the design of the monitoring program at the Prairie Island Plant which is based on the indicator-control concept. Most types of samples are collected both at indicator locations (nearby, downwind, or downstream) and at control locations (distant, upwind, or upstream). A plant effect would be indicated if the radiation level at an indicator location was significantly larger than that at the control location. The difference would have to be greater than could be accounted for by typical fluctuations in radiation levels arising from other sources.
An additional interpretive technique involves analyses for specific radionuclides present in the environmental samples collected from the plant site. The plant's monitoring program includes analyses for tritium and iodine-131. Most samples are also analyzed for gamma-emitting isotopes with results for the following groups quantified: zirconium-95, cesium-137, cerium-144, beryllium-7, and potassium-40. The first three gamma-emitting isotopes were selected as radiological impact indicators because of the different characteristic proportions in which they appear in the fission product mix produced by a nuclear reactor and that produced by a nuclear detonation.
Each of the three isotopes is produced in roughly equivalent amounts by a reactor: each constitutes about 10% of the total activity of fission products 10 days after reactor shutdown. On the other hand, 10 days after a nuclear explosion, the contributions of zirconium-95, cerium-144, and cesium-137 to the activity of the resulting debris are in the approximate ratio 4:1:0.03 (Eisenbud, 1963). Beryllium-7 is of cosmogenic origin and potassium-40 is a naturally-occurring isotope. They were chosen as calibration monitors and should not be considered radiological impact indicators.
The other group quantified consists of niobium-95, ruthenium-103 and -106, cesium-134, barium-lanthanum-140, and cerium-141. These isotopes are released in small quantities by nuclear power plants, but to date their major source of injection into the general environment has been atmospheric nuclear testing. Nuclides of the final group, manganese-54, iron-59, cobalt-58 and -60, and zinc-65, are activation products and arise from activation of corrosion products.
They are typical components of a nuclear power plant's effluents, but are not produced in significant quantities by nuclear detonations.

3.1 Program Design and Data Interpretation (continued)
Other means of distinguishing sources of environmental radiation are employed in interpreting the data. Current radiation levels are compared with previous levels, including those measured before the Plant became operational. Results of the plant's monitoring program can be related to those obtained in other parts of the world. Finally, results can be related to events known to cause elevated levels of radiation in the environment, e.g., atmospheric nuclear detonations.
3.2 Program Description The sampling and analysis schedule for the radiation environmental monitoring program at Prairie Island is summarized in Table 5.1 and briefly reviewed below. Table 5.2 defines the sampling location codes used in Table 5.1 and specifies for each location its type (indicator or control) and its distance, direction, and sector relative to the reactor site or ISFSI facility, as appropriate. To assure that sampling is carried out in a reproducible manner, detailed sampling procedures have been prescribed (Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, 2002). Maps of fixed sampling locations are included in Appendix D.
To monitor the air environment, airborne particulates are collected on membrane filters by continuous pumping at five locations. Airborne iodine is collected by continuous pumping through charcoal filters at these same locations. Filters are changed and counted weekly. Particulate filters are analyzed for gross beta activity and charcoal filters for iodine-131. A quarterly composite of the particulate filters from each location is gamma-scanned on an HPGe detector.
One of the five locations is a control (P-1), and four are indicators (P-2, P-3, P-4, and P-6).
Offsite ambient gamma radiation is monitored at thirty-four locations, using CaSO 4 :Dy dosimeters with four sensitive areas at each location: ten in an inner ring in the general area of the site boundary, fifteen in the outer ring within a 4-5 mile radius, eight at special interest locations, and one control location, 11.1 miles distant from the plant. They are replaced and measured quarterly. Also, a complete emergency set of TLDs for the inner ring, outer ring and special interest locations are placed in the field at the same time as regular sets. The emergency set is returned to EIML quarterly for annealing and repackaging.
Ambient gamma radiation is monitored at the Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI) Facility by twenty CaSO 4 Dy dosimeters. Twelve dosimeters are located inside of the earthen berm in direct line of sight from the storage casks and eight dosimeters are located outside of the earthen berm. They are replaced and measured quarterly.
Milk samples are collected monthly from five farms (four indicator and one control) and analyzed for iodine-131 and gamma-emitting isotopes. The milk is collected biweekly during the growing season (May - October), because the milk animals may be on pasture.
For additional monitoring of the terrestrial environment, green leafy vegetables (cabbage) are collected annually from the highest D/Q garden and a control location (P-38), and analyzed for gamma-emitting isotopes, including iodine-131. Corn is collected annually only if fields are irrigated with river water and analyzed for gamma-emitting isotopes. Well water and ground water are collected quarterly from four locations near the plant and analyzed for tritium and gamma-emitting isotopes.
River water is collected weekly at two locations, one upstream of the plant (P-5) and one downstream (P-6, Lock and Dam No.3). Monthly composites are analyzed for gamma-emitting isotopes. Quarterly composites are analyzed for tritium.
4
3.2 Program Description (continued)
Drinking water is collected weekly from the City of Red Wing well. Monthly composites are analyzed for gross beta, iodine-131, and gamma-emitting isotopes. Quarterly composites are analyzed for tritium.
The aquatic environment is also monitored by semi-annual upstream and downstream collections of fish, periphyton or invertebrates, and bottom sediments. Shoreline sediment is collected semi-annually from one location. All samples are analyzed for gamma-emitting isotopes.
3.3 Program Execution The Program was executed as described in the preceding section with the following exceptions:
(1) A partial air particulate/air iodine sample was obtained from location P-4 for the week ending 08-07-02. The probable cause is power loss due to storm activity.
(2) No air particulate/air iodine sample was available from location P-2 for the week ending 11-26-02, due to sampler pump failure.
(3) Milk samples were not available from P-37 (Welsch Farm) after October 29, 2002.
Dairy operations have been temporarily discontinued till spring, 2003.
Deviations from the program are summarized in Table 5.3.
3.4 Laboratorv Procedures All iodine-131 analyses in milk and drinking water were made by using a sensitive radiochemical procedure which involves separation of the element by use of an ion-exchange resin and subsequent beta counting. All gamma-spectroscopic analyses were performed with HPGe detectors. Levels of airborne iodine-131 in charcoal samples were measured by gamma spectrometry.
Levels of iodine-131 in cabbage were determined by gamma spectrometry.
Tritium levels were determined by liquid scintillation technique.
Analytical Procedures used by Environmental, Inc. are on file and are available for inspection.
Procedures are based on those prescribed by the Health and Safety Laboratory of the U.S. Dep't of Energy, Edition 28, 1997, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for Measurement of Radioactivity in Drinking Water, 1980, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, EERF, Radiochemical Procedures Manual, 1984.
Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory has a comprehensive quality control/quality assurance program designed to assure the reliability of the data obtained. Details of the Quality Assurance Program are presented elsewhere (Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory, 2000). The program includes participation in nterlaboratory Comparison (Crosscheck) programs and results are presented in Appendix A.

3.5 Program Modifications There were no program modifications for the year, 2002.
3.6 Land Use Census In accordance with the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, H4, (ODCM) a land use census is conducted in order to identify the location of the nearest milk animal, the nearest residence, and the nearest garden of greater than 500 ft2 producing fresh leafy vegetables in each of the 16 meteorological sectors within a distance of 5 miles. This census is conducted at least once per 12 months between the dates of May 1 and October 31. If new locations yield a calculated dose or dose equivalent (via the same exposure pathway) twenty percent greater than the required locations per the ODCM, then the new locations are added to the radiation environmental monitoring program within 30 days, and sampling locations having lower calculated doses or a lower dose commitment may be deleted from this monitoring program after October 31 of the year in which the land use census was conducted.
This land use census insures the updating of the radiation environmental monitoring program should sampling locations change within the 5 mile radius from the plant.
The 2002 Land Use Census was completed in October, 2002. There were no changes in any of the highest D/Q locations for dairy, nearest residence, or garden sites in 2002. The critical receptor location did not change in 2002, based on the results of the land use census.
No downstream irrigation of corn was discovered within 5 miles of the Prairie Island Plant.
Therefore, no corn samples were collected for analysis.

4.0 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION All scheduled collections and analyses were made except those listed in Table 5.3.
The results are summarized in Table 5.4 in a format recommended by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in Regulatory Guide 4.8. For each type of analysis of each sampled medium, this table lists the mean and range for all indicator locations and for all control locations. The locations with the highest mean and range are also shown.
4.1 Atmospheric Nuclear Detonations and Nuclear Accidents There were no reported atmospheric nuclear tests in 2002. The last reported test was conducted on October 16, 1980 by the People's Republic of China. There were no reported accidents involving a release to the environment at nuclear reactor facilities in 2002.
4.2 Summary of Preoperational Data The following constitutes a summary of preoperational studies conducted at the Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plant during the years 1970 to 1973, to determine background levels expected in the environment, and provided, where applicable, as a means for comparison with present day levels. Strict comparisons, however, are difficult, since background levels of radiation were much higher in these years due to radioactive fallout from the atmosphere. Gross beta measurements in fallout declined yearly from a level of 12,167 pCi/m 2 to 1,020 pCi/m2 , and these declining values are reflected throughout the various media tested.
In the air environment, ambient gamma radiation (TLDs) averaged 9.4 imR/4 weeks during preoperational studies. Gross beta in air particulates declined from levels of 0.38 to 0.037 pCim 3 . Average present day levels have stabilized at around 0.025 pCi/m 3 . Airborne radioiodine remained below detection levels.
In the terrestrial environment of 1970 to 1973, milk, agricultural crops, and soil were monitored.
In milk samples, low levels of Cs-137, 1-131, and Sr-90 were detected. Cs-137 levels declined from 16.5 to 8.6 pCi/L. Present day measurements for both Cs-1 37 and 1-131 are below detection levels. Agricultural crop measurements averaged 57.7 pCi/g for gross beta and 0.47 pCi/g for Cs-137. Gross beta measured in soil averaged 52 pCi/g.
The aqueous environment was monitored by testing of river, well and lake waters, bottom sediments, fish , aquatic vegetation and periphyton. Specific location comparison of drinking, river and well water concentrations for tritium and gross beta are not possible. However, tritium background levels, measured at eight separate locations, declined steadily from an average concentration of 1020 pC/L to 490 pCi/L. Present day environmental levels of tritium are below detection limits. Values for gross beta, measured from 1970 to 1973, averaged 9.9 pCi/L in downstream Mississippi River water, 8.2 pCi/L for well water, and 11.0 pCi/L for lake water.
Gamma emitters were below the lower limit of detection (LLD). In bottom sediments, gross beta background levels were determined at 51.0 pCi/g. Cs-I 37 activity during preoperational studies in 1973 measured 0.25 pCi/g upstream and 0.21 pCi/g downstream. The lower levels occasionally observed today can still be attributed to residual activity from atmospheric fallout.
Gross beta in fish, measured in both flesh and skeletal samples, averaged 7.3 and 11.7 pCi/g, respectively. Gross beta background levels in aquatic vegetation, algae and periphyton samples measured 76.0 pCi/g, 46.0 pCi/g, and 13.6 pCi/g, respectively.

4.3 Program Findings Results obtained show background levels of radioactivity in the environmental samples collected in the vicinity of the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant in 2002.
Ambient Radiation (TLDs)
Ambient radiation was measured in the general area of the site boundary, at the outer ring 4 - 5 mi distant from the Plant, at special interest areas and at one control location. The means ranged from 16.9 mR/91 days at inner ring locations to 17.8 mR/91 days at outer ring locations. The mean at special locations was 16.2 mR/91 days and 16.9 mR/91 days at the control location. The dose rates measured at the inner and outer ring and the control locations were similar to those observed from 1987 through 2001. The results are tabulated below. No plant effect on ambient gamma radiation was indicated (Figure 5-1).
Average (Inner and Year Outer Rings) Control 1987 16.9 17.0 1988 15.4 16.0 1989 16.5 16.7 1990 15.9 16.3 1991 14.9 14.5 1992 16.3 14.8 1993 15.9 15.4 1994 15.2 16.0 1995 15.6 16.6 1996 14.8 16.4 1997 15.1 16.0 1998 16.7 17.3 1999 16.6 17.5 2000 17.0 17.1 2001 16.8 17.2 2002 17.4 16.9 Ambient gamma radiation as measured by thermoluminescent dosimetry.
Average quarterly dose rates (mR/91 days).
ISFSI Facility Operations Monitoring Ambient radiation was measured inside the ISFSI earth berm, outside the ISFSI earth berm and at two special locations between the plant ISFSI and the Prairie Island Indian Community. The mean dose rates measured 87.6 mR/91 days inside the ISFSI earth berm and 20.1 mR/91 days outside the ISFSI earth berm. Three additional casks were placed on the ISFSI pad in 2002 for a total of seventeen loaded casks. The higher levels inside the earth berm are expected, due to the loaded spent fuel casks being in direct line-of-sight of the TLDs. The ambient radiation levels measured outside the earth berm show a slight increase as compared to other offsite dose rates around the plant. If the dose rates outside the earth berm are an indication of gamma skyshine from the casks, they are consistent with predictions given in the ISFSI Safety Analysis Report, Table 7A-7, "Total Skyshine Dose Rate". The cumulative average of the two special Prairie Island Indian Community TLDs measured 15.9 and 15.3 mR/91 days. Although the skyshine neutron dose rates are not directly measured, the neutron levels measured next to the casks are below the levels predicted in the ISFSI SAR Report, Table 7A-4, "TN-40 Dose Rates at Short Distances".
Therefore, the skyshine dose rates at farther distances from the casks should be at or below the calculated dose rates. No spent fuel storage effect on offsite ambient gamma radiation was indicated (Fig. 5-1).

Airborne Particulates The average annual gross beta concentrations in airborne particulates were slightly higher at the indicator versus the control locations (0.028 pCi/m 3 and 0.023 pCi/m 3 , respectively) and similar to levels observed from 1987 through 2001. The results are tabulated below.
Average of Year Indicators Control Concentration (Ci/m3 )

A spring peak in beta activity had been observed almost annually for many years (Wilson et al.,
1969). It had been attributed to fallout of nuclides from the stratosphere (Gold et al., 1964). It was pronounced in 1981, occurred to a lesser degree in 1982, and has not occurred since 1983.
The highest averages for gross beta occur during the months of January and December, and the first and fourth quarters, as in 1985 through 2002.
Two pieces of evidence indicate conclusively that the elevated activity observed during the winter months was not attributable to the Plant operation. In the first place, elevated activity of similar size occurred simultaneously at both indicator and control locations. Secondly, an identical pattern was observed at the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant, about 100 miles distant from the Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant (Xcel Energy Corp., 2003).
Gamma spectroscopic analysis of quarterly composites of air particulate filters yielded similar results for indicator and control locations. Beryllium-7, which is produced continuously in the upper atmosphere by cosmic radiation (Arnold and Al-Salih, 1955), was detected in all samples. All other gamma-emitting isotopes were below their respective LLD limits.
Airborne Iodine Weekly levels of airborne iodine-131 were below the lower limit of detection (LLD) of 0.07 pCi/m 3 in all samples. There was no indication of a plant effect.
9
Milk lodine-131 results were below the detection limit of 1.0 pCi/L in all samples. Cs-1 37 results were below the LLD level of 15 pCVL in all samples. No other gamma-emitting isotopes, except naturally-occurring potassium-40, were detected in any milk samples. This is consistent with the findings of the National Center for Radiological Health that most radiocontaminants in feed do not find their way into milk due to the selective metabolism of the cow. The common exceptions are radioisotopes of potassium, cesium, strontium, barium, and iodine (National Center for Radiological Health, 1968).
In summary, the milk data for 2002 show no radiological effects of the plant operation.
Drinkinq Water In drinking water from the City of Red Wing well, tritium activity measured below the LLD level of 182 pCi/L in all samples.
Gross beta concentrations averaged 8.7 pCi/L throughout the year, ranging from 5.8 - 10.8 pCi/L. These concentrations were similar to or slightly higher than levels observed from 1987 through 2001. The most likely contribution is the relatively high levels of naturally-occurring radium. Gamma spectroscopy indicates the presence of lead and bismuth isotopes, which are daughters of the radium decay chain. There is no indication from the 2002 data of any effect of plant operation.

River Water For all upstream and downstream collections, quarterly composite tritium levels measured below the LLD level of 164 pCi/L. Gamma-emitting isotopes were below detection limits in all samples.
10
Well Water Tritium was detected in one quarterly (4th quarter) well water composite (P-24, Suter), at a concentration of 219 pCi/L. This is well below the Environmental Protection Agency's drinking water standard of 20,000 pCi/L. At the control well P-41, Huppert Farm and the three indicator wells (P-8, Community Center, P-6, Lock and Dam No. 3, P-9, Plant Well No. 2) no tritium was detected above the LLD level of 156 pCVL.
Gamma-emitting isotopes were below detection limits in all samples.
CroPs Two samples of broadleaf vegetation, cabbage leaves, were collected in August and analyzed for gamma-emitting isotopes, including iodine-131. The 1-131 level was below 0.008 pCi/g wet weight in both samples. With the exception of naturally-occurring potassium-40, all other gamma-emitting isotopes were below their respective detection limits. There was no indication of a plant effect.
The field sampling personnel conducted an annual land use survey and found no river water taken for irrigation into fields within 5 miles downstream from the Prairie Island Plant. The collection and analysis of corn samples was not required.
Fish Fish samples were collected in May and September, 2002 and analyzed for gamma emitting isotopes. Only naturally-occurring potassium-40 was detected, and there was no significant difference between upstream and downstream results. There was no indication of a plant effect.
Aquatic Insects or Periphyton Aquatic insects (invertebrates) or periphyton were collected in May and September, 2002. All gamma-emitting isotopes were below their respective detection limits. There was no indication of any plant effect.
Bottom and Shoreline Sediments Upstream, downstream and downstream recreational area shoreline sediment collections were made in May and September, 2002 and analyzed for gamma-emitting isotopes. Trace levels of cesium-137 were detected in three of the six samples collected, at both indicator and control locations, averaging 0.050 pCi/g dry weight in two downstream samples and 0.052 pCi/g dry weight in one control sample, indicating the influence of fallout deposition. The only other gamma-emitting isotopes detected were naturally-occurring beryllium-7 and potassium-40. There was no indication of a plant effect.

Appendix A Interlaboratorv Comparison Pro-ram Results Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory, formerly Teledyne Brown Engineering Environmental Services Midwest Laboratory has participated in interlaboratory comparison (crosscheck) programs since the formulation of it's quality control program in December 1971. These programs are operated by agencies which supply environmental type samples containing concentrations of radionuclides known to the issuing agency but not to participant laboratories. The purpose of such a program is to provide an independent check on a laboratory's analytical procedures and to alert it of any possible problems.
Participant laboratories measure the concentration of specified radionuclides and report them to the issuing agency. Several months later, the agency reports the known values to the participant laboratories and specifies control limits. Results consistently higher or lower than the known values or outside the control limits indicate a need to check the instruments or procedures used.
Results in Table A-1 were obtained through participation in the environmental sample crosscheck program administered by Environmental Resources Associates, serving as a replacement for studies conducted previously by the U.S. EPA Environmental Monitoring Systems Laboratory, Las Vegas, Nevada.
The results in Table A-2 were obtained for Thermoluminescent Dosimeters (TLDs), via International Intercomparison of Environmental Dosimeters under the sponsorships listed in Table A-2. Results of internal laboratory testing is also listed.
Table A-3 lists results of the analyses on in-house spiked" samples for the past twelve months. All samples are prepared using NIST traceable sources. Data for previous years available upon request.
Table A-4 lists results of the analyses on in-house blank" samples for the past twelve months. Data for previous years available upon request. request.
Table A-5 list results of the in-house duplicate' program for the past twelve months. Acceptance is based on the difference of the results being less than the sum of the errors. Data for previous years available upon request.
The results in Table A-6 were obtained through participation in the Mixed Analyte Performance Evaluation Program.
The results in Table A-7 were obtained through participation in the Environmental Measurement Laboratory Quality Assessment Program.
Attachment A lists acceptance criteria for 'spiked" samples.
Out-of-limit results are explained directly below the result.

APPENDIX B DATA REPORTING CONVENTIONS B-1
Data Renorting Conventions 1.0. All activities, except gross alpha and gross beta, are decay corrected to collection time or the end of the collection period.
2.0. Single Measurements Each single measurement is reported as follows: x+/-s where: x = value of the measurement; s = 2s counting uncertainty (corresponding to the 95% confidence level).
In cases where the activity is less than the lower limit of detection L, it is reported as: <L, where L = the lower limit of detection based on 4.66s uncertainty for a background sample.
3.0. Duplicate analyses 3.1 Individual results: For two analysis results; xl +/- si and X2 +/- S2 Reported result: x +/- s; where x = (1i2) (xl + x2) and s = (1/2) s +22S2 3.2. Individual results: <LI, <2 Reported result: <L, where L = lower of Li and L2 3.3. Individual results: x +/- s, <L Reported result: x +/- s if x 2L; <L otherwise.
4.0. Computation of Averages and Standard Deviations 4.1 Averages and standard deviations listed in the tables are computed from all of the individual measurements over the period averaged; for example, an annual standard deviation would not be the average of quarterly standard deviations. The average x and standard deviation s of a set of n numbers x 1 , x2 ... xn are defined as follows:
X= -n EX s= _J n(-1) 4.2 Values below the highest lower limit of detection are not included in the average.
4.3 If all values in the averaging group are less than the highest LLD, the highest LLD is reported.
4.4 If all but one of the values are less than the highest LLD, the single value x and associated two sigma error is reported.
4.5 In rounding off, the following rules are followed:
4.5.1. If the number following those to be retained is less than 5, the number is dropped, and the retained number s are kept unchanged. As an example, 11.443 is rounded off to 11.44.
4.5.2. If the number following those to be retained is equal to or greater than 5, the number is dropped and the last retained number is raised by 1. As an example, 11.445 is rounded off to 11.45.
