SUMMARY

l l

The Semiannual Effluent and Vaste Disposal Report is a detailed listing of  !

radioactivity released'from the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station during the period from July.1, 1992 through December 31, 1992.  ;

This report provides the following information: l i

Summation of the quantities of radioactivity released in '

gaseous and liquid effluents, l Summation of the quantities of radioactivity contained in solid i vaste packaged and shipped for offsite disposal at federally approved sites, and j A listing of all radioactive effluent monitoring '

instrumentation required by the Offsite Dose Calculation .

Manual (ODCH), but which was inoperable for more than 30 days. l Environmental samples were available from the normal collection locations i during this reporting period. The locations used for dose calculations  :

and environmental monitoring vere those identified by the 1992 Land Use  !

Census.

During the period of July 1 through December 31, 1992, the maximum-individual offsite dose due to radioactivity released in effluents was '

approximately:

i

!- 1 Liquid Effluents- 'i 6.23E-02 mrem, whole body 8.32E-02 mrem, liver Gaseous Effluents:  ;

Noble Gas: ,

i 1.81E-03 mrem, whole body l 4.95E-03 mrem, skin l

Iodine-131 Tritium, and Particulates with Half-lives  :

Greater Than 8 Days: j 1.10E-02 mrem, whole body l 1.29E-01 mrem, thyroid l These doses are only a small fraction of the limits set by the NRC in the Davis-Besse ODCM.  !

There exist several adaitional normal release pathways from the  :

secondary system as a result of prior primary-to-secondary leakage. For  !

gaseous effluents, these pathways include the auxiliary feed pump ,

turbine exhaust, the main steam safety valve system and the atmospheric j vent valve system. For liquid effluents, the additional pathways l include the Turbine Building drains via the settling basins. Releases i which occurred via these pathvays are included in the normal release J tables in this report.  !

I DBNPS Semiannual Effluent Report 1 July - Dec., 1992 3

.l

t On August 16, 1992 a small volume of radioactive gasses escaped to the atmosphere during the performance of an emergency escape hatch surveillance test. In addition, on December 7, 1992 a failed regulator resulted in the overpressurization of the gland seal steam header. The overpressurization caused two relief valves to open, releasing slightly contaminated steam. The resultant offsite doses vere a small fraction of the limits. Additional information on these releases is contained in Section 6 of the Supplemental Information and in Tables 4 and 9 of the abnormal release sections of the report.

Total Dilution Flow Computer Point F201 required to be operable by Davis-Besse Offsite Dose Calculation Manual Section 2.1 was inoperable for more than 30 days during this reporting period. Additional information is contained in Section 10 of the Supplemental Information.

There vere no changes to the ODCM during this reporting period. No changes to the Process Control Program (PCP) occurred during this reporting period.

2. MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE CONCENTRATION The maximum permissible concentrations (MPC) for liquid and gaseous effluents at and beyond the site boundary are listed in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, with the most restrictive MPC being used in all cases. For dissolved and entrained gases the MPC of 2.0E-04 pCi/ml is applied. This MPC is based on the Xe-135 MPC in air (submersion dose) converted to an equivalent concentration in water as discussed in the International Commission on Radiological Protection .

(ICRP), Publication 2.

3. AVERAGE ENERGY i

i The Davis-Besse ODCM limits the dose equivalent rates due to the release of fission and activation products to less than or equal to 500 mrem / year to the total body and less than or equal to 3000 .

mrem / year to the skin. Therefore, the average beta and gamma energies .

(E) for gaseous effluents as described in Regulatory Guide 1.21, l I

" Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactivity in Solid Vastes and Releases of Radioactive Materials in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents from Light-Vater-Cooled Nuclear Power Plants," is not applicable.

i

4. MEASUREMENTS AND APPROXIMATIONS OF TOTAL A m v m A. Fission and Activation Gases:
1. These gases, excluding tritium, are collected in a marinelli beaker specially modified for gas sampling, steel bombs, or glass vials and are counted on a germanium detector for principal gamma e emitters. Detected radionuclides are quantified via gamma spectroscopy.

t

2. Tritium gas is collected using a bubbler apparatus and counted by liquid scintillation.

B. Iodines are collected on a charcoal cartridge filter, and counted ,

on a germanium detector. Specific quantification of each iodine radionuclide is made by gamma spectroscopy.

C. Particulates are collected on filter paper and counted on a germanium detector. Specific quantification of each radionuclide l present on the filter paper is made by gamma spectroscopy. i D. Liquid Effluents are collected in a marinelli beaker and counted l on a germanium detector. Specific quantification of each  :

radionuclide present in liquid samples is made by gamma spectroscopy.

6. ABNORMAL RELEASES ,

i On August 16, 1992 a small volume of radioactive gasses escaped to the atmosphere during the performance of an emergency escape hatch surveillance test. In addition, on December 7, 1992 a failed regulator resulted in the overpressurization of the gland seal steam header.

The overpressurization caused two relief valves to open, releasing ,

slightly contaminated steam. The activity released from these events  !

is listed in Table 4. The resultant offsite dose is listed in Table 9 and represents a small fraction of the Davis-Besse Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) release limits. ,

report entitled, " Agricultural Statistics and Livestock Marketing Account, 1980"; the Agricultural Ministry of Ontario ,

1980 report entitled, " Agricultural Statistics for Ontario - i j

D. Location of the nearest individuals and pathvays by sector out to 5 miles: Report entitled, "1992 Land Use Census," included in the 1992 Annual Environmental Operating Report for Davis-Besse. j s ,

9. DOSE TO PUBLIC DUE TO ACTIVITIES INSIDE THE SITE BOUNDARY j In accordance with ODCM Section 7.2, the Semiannual Effluent and j

^

Vaste Disposal Report shall include an assessment of radiation doses  ;

from radioactivity released in liquid and gaseous effluents to  ;

members of the public due to their activities inside the site  !

j boundary.  ;

l In special instances, members of the public are permitted access to the radiologically restricted area within the Davis-Besse station.

Tours for the public are conducted with the assurance that no  !

individual vill receive an appreciable dose due to radioactivity released in gaseous or liquid effluents (i.e., not more than a small fraction of the 40 CFR 190 dose standards).

The Visitor Center located inside the Davis-Besse Administration Building (DBAB) is also accessible to members of the public.

1 Considering the frequency and duration of the visits, the resultant dose vould be a small fraction of the calculated maximum site boundary dose. The dose from gaseous effluents as modeled for the DBAB Visitor Center is considered the controlling factor when evaluating doses to members of the public from activities inside the site boundary. For purposes of assessing the dose to members of the i public in accordance with ODCM Section 7.2, the following exposure assumptions may be used:

DBNPS Semiannual Effluent Report 7 July - Dec., 1992 1

Exposure time for maximum-exposed visitor of 20 hours2.314815e-4 days <br />0.00556 hours <br />3.306878e-5 weeks <br />7.61e-6 months <br /> (4 visits, 5 hours5.787037e-5 days <br />0.00139 hours <br />8.267196e-6 weeks <br />1.9025e-6 months <br /> per visit is a conservative estimate).

Annual average meteorological dispersion. ,

The equations in the ODCM may be used for calculating the potential dose to a member of the public for activities inside the site '

boundary. Based on these assumptions, this dose would be at least a factor of 400 less than the maximum site boundary air dose as calculated in the ODCM.  ;

There are no areas onsite accessible to the public where exposure to liquid effluents could occur. Therefore, the modeling of the ODCH conservatively estimates the maximum potential dose to members of the public.

10. INOPERABLE RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENT MONITORING EQUIPMENT Computer point F201, dilution flov to the collection box, required to be operable by ODCM Sections 2.1 was inoperable for more than 30.

days during this reporting period. This point is a summation value of four computer points, which may go out of service for different reasons. These systems are not readily isolated while the plant is operating. If any of these points fail, F201 vill be out of service. Dilution flow is then approximated using the remaining in service points that are available and pump curves.

A Potential Condition Adverse to Quality Report was written to document that incorrect dilution pump flow curves had been used.

These curves had been used to estimate dilution flov when F201 vas inoperable. Based on 1992 data, dilution flov from the pump vas overestimated by approximately 18%. This non-conservative value resulted in underestimating the dose to the public from liquid estimates by 1.02%, vell within the 20% total error.

11. CHANGES TO THE ODCM & PCP There vere no revisions to the ODCM during this reporting period. No changes to the PCP occurred during this reporting period.
