1996 ANNUAL RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT
- l. EXECUTIVE
SUMMARY
This report contains results from the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) fcr the Rancho Seco Nuclear Station (RSNS) compiled for the period January 1,1996 through December 31,1996. This program is conducted by the Radiation Protection / Chemistry Group at RSNS and is conducted in accordance with section D6.8.3.b of the RSNS Permanently Defueled Technical Specifications.
The results of the 1996 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program showed that the operation of RSNS had no significant radiologicalimpact on the environment.
Currently the Plant is permanently shutdown and is in a Custodial SAFSTOR condition. The Post Shutdown Decommissioning Activities Report (PSDAR) describes performing incremental Decommissioning during Custodial SAFSTOR then placing the plant into a Hardened SAFSTOR mode with Deferred Dismantlement. The SMUD Board of Directors has approved an incremental Decommisioning Action Plan which will be evaluated on an ongoing basis to determine cost effectiveness. Fuel oifloading into dry storage is currently scheduled to begin in 1998 in an ;
independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI). The ISFSI civil construction was completed in 1995, with concrete storage modules in place.
During the reporting period, the atmospheric, terrestrial and aquatic environs adjacent to RSNS were monitored. The sample measurements showed that the levels of radioactivity in the sampled media were consistent with previous evaluations and Station operations. All positively detected results were well below the reporting levels.
Doses resulting from ambient exposure to terrestrial and atmospheric direct radiation sources were measured through the placement and retrieval of thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs). Direct radiation measurements attributable to Station operations, based on control and indicator locations, were indistinguishable above background levels. Two TLD locations placed in an area being monitored as part of the characterization program are indicating doses higher than the indicator '
t average. The doses do not exceed regulatory limits. The elevated readings are due to historical releases of liquid effluents. Pre-operational TLDs were placed around the ISFSI location during 1995.
Isotopic identifications were consistent with known releases of radioactive material from the Station to the atmospheric and aquatic environments. As expected, fish and garden samples obtained from the aquatic environment of the No Name, Clay, Hadselville, and Laguna Creeks contributed the majority of positive isotopic identifications. Cesium -137, Cobalt-60, and Cesium-134 were the predominant nuclides identified in the aquatic environment. Nuclides of Station origin were not ;
detected in the gaseous effluent exposure pathways.

II. LAND USE CENSUS The 1996 Land Use Census was conducted in accordance with th a Rancho Seco Permanently Defueled Technical SpecifiMJon (PDTS) section D.6.8.3.b.2 and liadiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) manual section 4.0. The 1996 Land Use Census did not identify any changes in the use of the unrestricted areas that would require inodification to the REMP for evaluating doses to individuals from principal pathways of exposure. This evaluation and determination are in accordance with the requirements of 10CFR60, Appendix 1, section IV.B.3.
Ill. RADIOLOGICALIMPACT EVALUATION PREDICTED POTENTIAL RADIOLOGICAL IMPACT Gaseous Effluent Exposure Pathways 4
The maximum predicted potential annual organ dose commitment due to gaseous releases of i
tritium and particulate isotopes was 0.057 mrem (as calculated using the Rancho Seco Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM)). This predicted Mential organ dose commitment was 0.35% of the associated PDTS limit (10CFR50, Appendix 1 guideline). l Since no detected noble gas activity was released from RSNS during 1996, there is no predicted .
gamma or beta air dose calculation from the ODCM. Therefore, the predicted air doses were within j the applicable PDTS limits (10CFR50, Appendix l guidelines). l Uauid Effluent Exposure Pathways During 1996, 4.70E+06 liters of waste water were released into "No Name" Creek from the two onsite Retention Basins. This volume of waste water was dispersed into 1.46E+10 liters of dilution water. The estimated error associated with determining these volumes were 5% and 20%,
respectively.
l The Liquid source term resulted in a predicted potential annual adult total body dose commitment of 0.016 mrem and a predicted potential child bone dose commitment of 0.034 mrem (as calculated using the ODCM). These predicted potential dose commitments were 0.53% and 0.34%,
respectively, of the associated PDTS limits (10CFR50, Appendix i guidelines). The dose i commitments reflect the age groups that could have received the highest annual dose commitment from the liquid source term. i l

FUEL CYCLE DOSE EVALUATION PDTS section D6.9.2.3 [NRC74] requires each Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report (AREOR) to include information related to REMP manual section 5.0; Fuel Cycle Dose. The Fuel Cycle Dose Specification limits the dose or dose commitment to any real member of the public to 25 mrem to the total body or any organ, except the thyroid which is limited to 75 mrem. This specification implements requirements promulgated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency [CFRd].
Consistent with REMP manual section 5.0, no fuel cycle dose evaluation was required to be performed during 1996 since no REMP measurement exceeded the established reporting levels.
Additionally, the Station effluent dose predictions did not exceed twice the dose guidelines of 10CFR50, Appendix I (CFRc]. The station operated within the Appendix I guidelines envelope for 1 radioactive effluents (a condition supported by Program measurements); therefore, determination of an actual dose commitment delivered to a real member of the public was not required.
l OBSERVED POTENTIAL RADIOLOGICAL IMPACT Gaseous Effluent Exposure Pathways The predicted potential gaseous effluent dose commitment calculation of 0.057 mrem (RS96] is based on tritium activity. No particulate or gaseous isotopes of Station origin were released during 1996. The observed dose commitment dose calculation, if complekd, using the gross beta data (which is primarily due to naturally occurring radioisotopes ) would not provide an accurate correlation. Therefore, no dose comparison was completed. This was also confirmed during 1996 ,
as none of the REMP gamma isotopic analysis results for the airbome pathway indicated the presence of nuclides of Station origin.
Direct Radiation Exposure Pathway Based on thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) control and indicator locations measurement results I obtained during 1996, the Station proper did not contribute an observable component to the f recorded direct gamma radiation field. This TLD data supports the Gaseous Effluent Exposure
]
Pathway conclusions and supports the conclusion that the Plant has no direct radiation effect on '
the environment.
TLDs placed near the effluent stream as special locations were used to evaluate the dose from this area. As expected, the dose from this area is exhibiting the normal decay. Dose levels at these locations are only slightly higher than the mean of the controi and indicator locations reported.
Rancho Seco 3 1996 AREOR
lit. RADIOLOGICALIMPACT EVALUATION (continued)
OBSERVED POTENTIAL RADIOLOGICAL IMPACT Liauid Effluent Exposure Pathways To evaluate more accurately the impact on the environment from the liquid effluent pathway, dose commitment calculations were performed and compared with the annual dose commitment predictions reported in the January- December 1996 Rancho Seco Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report [RS96]. The observed results presented in Table 1 were obtained using the average, positive activity concentrations identified in fish (Appendix F, Table F-5) and garden vegetation (Appendix F, Table F-3), default consumption quantities for fish and fresh garden vegetables (ODCM), and nuclide-specific dose factors [NRC77).
The observed potential dose commitments listed in Table 1 are subject to uncertainty, principally :
due to the assumption that the predicted radioactivity was due to 1996 Station operations only and '
was not affected by radioactivity introduced into the environment prior to 1996. A me,ior portion of 2 the activity identified by Program measurements in 1996 is attributable to historical reieases documented in previous annual reports. Additionally, the observed dose commitment calculations are based on conservative default consumption factors for fish and fresh garden vegetables.
The 1996 Land Use Census indicates the potential for an liquid / fish or liquid / irrigated vegetation pathway. This potentialis based on the possibility and not actual data supporting the use of the
{
effluent streams for a source of fish orirrigation of vegetation. Conservative consumption factors '
for fish and garden vegetation were used for the observed dose commitment based on this potential.

l IV. PROGRAM ANALYSIS RESULTS
SUMMARY
This section compiles all Program data with corresponding evaluations. Each of the following five subsections presents information about each of the principal environmental exposure pathways monitored by the Program:
=> Atmospheric (Section IV-A)
=> Direct Radiation (Section IV-B)
=> Terrestrial (f ' ction IV-C)
=> Aquatic Life (Section IV-D)
= Water (Section IV-E)
Each of these sections contains a data evaluation subsection which provides a summary of the data collected.
Table 2 is a comprehensive, all-media data summan presented in a format considered acceptable by the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Information contained in Table 2 was derived from data presented in Appendix F.
IV-A. ATMOSPHERIC MONITORING DATA EVALUATION No radionuclides attributable to the operation of Rancho Seco were observed in gamma spectrometry analyses of the quarterly composites of the particulate filters. No table is presented for this data since all the data were reported as being below the associated minimum detectable activity for the nuclides of interest.
The data indicates that there was no measurable contribution to the airbome radioactivity inventory which could reasonably be attributable to Station operations.
The results of the gross beta analyses of the particulate samples are given in Appendix F, Table F-1.

IV-B. DIRECT RADIATION MONITORING DATA EVALUATION A comparison review of all TLD data for the indicator and control locations during 1996 showed that there was no observable direct radiation component due to Station operations (i.e.,
storage or utilization of licensed radioactive material within the restricted area.)
Two TLD locations are being used to characterize the dose in areas next to the effluent stream. The data from these locations indicates doses are within regulatory limits.
The summary data for 1996 direct radiation monitoring is presented in Table 2.
Comprehensive data tables are given in Appendix F Table F-2.
IV-C. TERRESTRIAL MONITORING DATA EVALUATION Garden Vegetation - 4 routine garden vegetation samples were collected and analyzed for nuclides of interest during 1996. Cs-137 was detected in one of the irrigated site boundary garden samples at 46 21 pCi/kg. A site boundary irrigated garden has been evaluated to be a conservative method for evaluating the liquid effluent pathway. This method meets the requirement of the Land Use Census for monitoring gardens. This site boundary garden is used for the Land Use Census.
Soil (discharge canal)- 8 soil samples were collected and analyzed for nuclides of interest l from the effluent uischarge canal and downstream creeks during 1996. Cs-137 (8 samples,25 to 1738 pCi/kg,408 pCi/kg mean), Co-60 (2 samples,24 to 294 pCi/kg,159 pCi/kg mean), and !
Cs-134 (1 sample 24 pCi/kg) was detected by the analyses. The remaining nuclide I identifications were numerically below the required LLD-equivalent activity concentration. The I presence of the identified nuclides is attributed to historical Station operations and Cs-137 fallcut sources. The decay trend for these locations is as anticipated. Soil sampling at these loc.ations is not required by the REMP.
Soil (storm drain outfall)- 24 soil samples were collected from 12 storm drain outfall locations during 1996. These outfalls are located along the perimeter of the Industrial Area Boundary (Restricted Area) and receive site drainage flows. Gamma spectrometry analysis of these samples revealed the presence of Cs-137 (17 samples,12 to 670 pCi/kg,68.2 pCi/kg mean). These results are within the range of the activity levels previously detected in the ;
vicinity of Rancho Seco and are within the anticipated decay trend. Soil sampling at these !
locations is not required by the REMP. !

IV-C. TERRESTRIAL MONITORING (continued)
DATA EVALUATION Soil (cepression area)- Samples were taken in 1996 as part of the decommissioning site characterization program. The site characterization surveys are being conducted to monitor areas in the vicinity of the discharge canal, within District property, to provide data on activity levels from historical, permitted releases. These sample points were added to provide programmatic control and correlation for the data collected. Fourteen (14) soil samples at 7 locations were collected in 1996 as part of this program. Gamma spectrometry analysis of these samples indicated the presence of Cs-137 (14 samples,138 to 41000 pCi/kg,7533 pCi/kg mean), Co-60 (8 samples,44 to 1600 pCi/kg,517 pCi/kg mean), and Cs-134 (7 samples,20 to 580 pCi/kg,186 pCi/kg mean). The results for these samples are within the anticipated decay trend indicated by the initial site characterization samples. Soil sampling at these locations is not required by the REMP.
The summary data for 1996 terrestrial monitoring is presented in Table 2. Comprehensive data tables are given in the following Appendix F tables:
=> F-3 (Garden Vegetables)
=> F-4 (Soil and Sediment).
IV-D. AQUATIC LIFE MONITORING DATA EVALUATION Fish - 2 fish samples were collected during 1996 and analyzed for nuclides of interest by gamma spectrometry. Cs-137 (2 samples,31 to 120 pCi/kg,91 pCi/kg mean) was identified in the gamma spectrometry analysis.
The identification of Cesium nuclides in fish samples is attributed mainly to permitted historical liquid effluent discharges. Since Cesium nuclides were not identified in effluent discharge canal or creek water samples, it appears that the observed Cesium uptake in fish could ultimately be traced dvectly or indirectly to sediment sources.
The summary data for 1996 aquatic life consumption exposure pathway is presented in Table
- 2. A comprehensive data table is given in Appendix F, Table F-5.
Rancho Seco 8 1996 AREOR
IV-E. WATER MONITORING DATA EVALUATION Sediment - 20 samples of sediment were collected from the d scharge canal and the Clay /
Hadselville/ Laguna Creeks during 1996. Gamma spectrometry analysis of these samples l indicated the presence of Cs-137 (20 samples,34 to 495 pCi/kg,179 pCi/kg mean) and Co-60 (4 samples,13 to 67 pCi/kg, 36.3 pCi/kg mean).
The presence of nuclides of interest in sediments is attributed to historical permitted liquid effluent discharges with some contribution from fallout sources.
l Algae - 8 samples of algae were collected from the discharge canal and the Clay / Hadselville/
Laguna creeks during 1996. Cs-137 (4 samples,15 to 72 pCi/kg,38.5 pCi/kg mean) was detected by gamma spectrometry analysis.
l The identification of nuclides of interest in the algae samples is attributed to permitted historical liquid effluent discharges. Additional contributions would be expected to have occurred from sediment activity and fallout sources.
Well Water - 20 well water samples were collected at indicator and control locations around i
the site during 1996. Gamma spectrometry and tritium analysis of the samples indicated '
results less than LLD for all isotopes of interest. Gross beta activity levels were within regulatory limits Runoff Water - No nuclides of interest were identified by gamma spectrometry or tritium j analysis of the 40 samples collected i.1996. i Surface Water -- 5 locations (3 indicator and 2 control) were included in the surface water monitoring Program. Composite samplers located at the Plant intake (Folsom South Canal) and effluent discharge provide monthly composite samples. During 1996,65 samples were collected and analyzed for nuclides of interest. No gamma-emitting nuclides or tritium were ,
detected in any of the samples analyzed. I Drinking Water - Water supplied from the site well is distributed in a potable water supply system for Station personnel consumption and use. On a monthly frequency, a sample of this water was collected and analyzed for nuclides of interest. A sample from the Rancho Seco Reservoir well is collected as a control location. No gamma emitting isotopes or tritium were found to be present in the 24 samples collected in 1996. Gross Beta analysis showed activity within regulatory limits.

IV-E. WATER MONITORING (continued)
DATA EVALUATION Rain Water - On a seasonal basis, rain water is collected at the site meteorological tower. The sample is analyzed for gamma emitting isotopes and tritium. During 1996,17 samples were collected at this location. No isotopes of interest were detected in these samples. Rainwater samples are not required to be collected by the REMP.
The summary data for the water monitoring program is shown in Table 2. Comprehensive data tables are given in the following Appendix F Tables:

1996 LAND USE CENSUS RESULTS In compliance with the Rancho Seco Permanently Defueled Technical Specifications, section l D6.8.3.b.2 and the REMP Manual, section 4.0, " Land Use Census", a land use census was !
completed on March 19,1997. The method of conducting the primary survey was to use an aerial survey that was conducted during June 1996. Evaluating the aerial photographs
. continues to provide an accurate method of determining locations and distances of the nearest ,
l residences. When the review of the survey photos indicated that a actual on-scene survey :
was needed to verify the use of identified structures, a visual observation was made. The i aerial photos also provided a method to identify any changes in the agricultural, commercial, or i industrial use of the land surrounding the site. The use of conservative dose factors for the ;
purpose of projected dose calculations still requires that we evaluate the use of the area surrounding the site. The information that is presented is to verify this assumption and validate i the process. i I
The land use census covered an area bounded by each of the sixteen meteorological sectors 3
out to a two mile radius from the Reactor Building.
The 1996 Land Use Census did not identify any changes in the use of the unrestricted areas ,
that would require modifications in the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for evaluating doses to individuals from principal pathways of exposure. This evaluation and determination are in accordance with the requirements of 10CFR50, Appendix 1, section ,

j Q 500 Beef Unrestricted Area Boundary R 448 Beef Unrestricted Area Boundary Because of the extremely small amount of radioactive gaseous effluent released from the site, Deposition Exposure Pathway changes were considered inconsequential. The changes indicated in the beef consumption table do not necessitate modification of ODCM or REMP practices.

C. IRRIGATED CROP EXPOSURE PATHWAY
SUMMARY
Laguna Creek Based on information stated in the Galt Irrigation District's 1996 Crop Report,2919.1 acre-feet of Laguna Crcsk water was diverted for trrigation purposes during the 1996 crop production season (up to October 31,1996. A total land area of 1081 acres was subject to irrigation as follows:
Acre Feet Acreage Water irrigated Crop 223.96 50 Sudan 22.44 90 Clover 385.16 156 Sudan 202.54 20 not specified 355.74 100 Sudan 331.74 130 Pasture 273.90 50 C!over ;

l Based on direct observation cattle consume water from the Clay, Hadselville, and Laguna Creeks. l 1
l Rancho Seco A4 1996 AREOR l I
D. OTHER EXPOSURE PATHWAYS The 1996 Land Use Census confirmed previous knowledge that the Clay / Laguna Creeks are utilized by the general public for aquatic life consumption purposes. Past census evaluations have been unsuccessful in determining the usage / occupancy factors for their consumption.
Therefore, insufficient data existed to justify ODCM usage factor modification.
E. REMP EVALUATION An objective of the 1996 Land Use Census was to compare census and current REMP Manual locations to ensure consistency exists between monitoring activities and actual land utilization.
The following discussion is a summary of the comparison evaluation for each of the four exposure pathways.
Resident Exposure Pathway The inhalation and ground plane exposure pathways, the principal components of the Resident Exposure Pathway, are monitored directly and indirectly by thermoluminesence dosimetry (TLD), air and soil sampling and analysis. Well water was monitored at five locations.
Since the existing REMP was more conservative with respect to Resident Exposure Pathway monitoring, no changes were required.
Deposition Exposure Pathway The Deposition Exposure Pathway (Section B) is monitored directly within the Station Site Boundary through garden vegetation sampling and analysis. The potential for a deposition pathway has been evaluated by the ODCM and REMP programs and found to have little potential for the current plant status. Since the current REMP was representative and conservative with respect to Deposition Exposure Pathway monitoring, no changes were required.
Irriaated Croo Exposure Pathway The REMP was effective in monitoring the identified irrigated crop exposure pathways. This conclusion was based on the fact that the REMP included irrigated vegetation sampling. For l 1996 there was one positive result for the irrigated vegetation on one sample.
REMP surface water surveillance activities monitor irrigation water radiological quality. Current i ODCM calculations are conservative since dilution effects are not included when predicting I potential dose delivered through downstream pathways. l l
l Rancho Seco A-5 1996 AREOR .
l
E. REMP EVALUATION (continued)
Other Exposure Pathways Existing aquatic life, surface water and sediment sampling and analysis practices are effective in monitoring potential observable effects associated with recreational activities occurring at the Clay Creek, Hadselville Creek, Laguna Creek, Folsom South Canal and Rancho Seco Lake. With respect to availability and quantity of food sources, the other identified consumption activities were considered inconsequential for pathway monitoring purposes.
No REMP changes were required to monitor other exposure pathways.
F. ODCM EVALUATION Based on 1996 Land Use Census findings, the following potential exposure pathways exist at the indicated locations:
GASEOUS EFFLUENT Exposure Pathway Location Comment inhalation 1128 m ENE Resident location having the highest dispersion parameter Ground Plane 1128 m ENE Resident location having the highest deposition paran'eter LIQUID EFFLUENT Exposure Pathway Location Comment Freshwater Fish Clay Creek R= creation beyond the Site Boundary Swimming Clay Creek R:,ereation beyond the Site Boundary Shoreline Deposits Clay Creek Recreation beyond the Site Boundary irrigated vegetation Clay Creek Potential for residences beyond the site boundary irrigated forage Clay Creek Cattle grazing beyond the Site Boundary Drinking Water Clay Creek Cattle drinking water beyond the Site Boundary Rancho Seco A-6 1996 AREOR l l
I
t r
F. ODCM EVALUATION (continued) ,
The GASEOUS EFFLUENT locations for inhalation and ground plane used by the ODCM are conservative since they are located at the Station Site Boundary. t Specifying the Laguna Creek location also provides additional conservatism since the beneficial effects of downstream dilution are not considered when specifying effluent release restrictions.
As required by the 1996 Land Use Census the above information for exposure pathways and locations was submitted for incorporation in the ODCM for use during 1996.

I APPENDIX C QUALITY CONTROL SAMPLE ANALYSIS RESULTS QUALITY ASSURANCE AND CONTROL implementation of the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) consists of a number of discrete steps including:
I
= Sample collection,
= Packaging, o Shipment and receipt, I
= Measurements of radioactivity, l l
= Data evaluation, and
= Reporting.
These program elements are performed according to approved, written procedures to assure the validity of REMP results. Beginning in July 1996, the analysis contract was awarded to Thermo NUtech. This section discusses the intemal quality control measurements made by the analysis laboratories, Controls for Environmental Pollution, Inc. (CEP) and Thermo NUtech, and the results of their participation in the intertaboratory Comparison Program conducted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Intertaboratory Comparison Program and the .
analysis laboratories Quality Assurance Programs provide information on the validity (accuracy and ,
precision) of the REMP implementation steps listed above. !
Because REMP measurement validity is important for evaluating protection of the health and safety of the public, RSNS has established an Environmental Quality Assurance Program (EQAP) for radiological environmental measurements. The Environmental QA Program implements the l guidance provided in Regulatory Guide 4.15, (NRC79a).
Rancho Seco C-1 1996 AREOR
INTERLABORATORY COMPARISON PROGRAM Thermo Nutech and CEP participate in the Intertaboratory Comparison Program (ICP). The ICP is a radiological analysis quality control program sponsored by EPA's Environmental Monitoring Systems Laboratory in Las Vegas. Participation in the ICP is a requirement of the Permanently Defueled Technical Specification (section D6.8.3.b.3). It provides for an independent check of the proficiency of the laboratory. It also provides information on the precision and accuracy of measurements of radioactive material in REMP samples by CEP, Thermo Nutech, and other laboratories. The extent of CEP and Thermo Nutech participation in this program includes all of the environmental radioactivity determinations that are offered by the EPA and related to the analyses required by the REMP manual.
The EPA Intercomparison Program consists of a variety of sample media spiked with known i quantities of specific radioactive materials at levels normally found in environmental samples.
These levels are generally quite low. Most samples require long counting times to determine if any activity is present, and the results may have large deviations from the mean. When the samples ;
are distributed by the EPA, there is an implied precision requirement given in terms of the analysis requested to be performed. After all the labs provide the results of their analyses (three are i required from each lab), the EPA publishes a statistical summary of all the results by all laboratories. This report includes the EPA acceptance controllimits, the mean of all laboratories and the standard deviation of the results by alllabs, among other statistics.
l if the results of a determination by CEP or Thermo Nutech in the ICP are outside the specified control limits or do not pass the outliers test, CEP and Thermo NUtech must investigate and, if a ;
problem is identified, take corrective action to prevent problem recurrence. l l
During the first half of 1996, CEP analyzed 13 of 14 ICP samples that are required by the REMP. ,
For the Tritium in Water sample dated 3/8/96, CEP did not sumbit any data. CEP conducted an I investigation and reported the results of that investigation. The investigation indicated that CEP did not schedule to have the analysis completed. Corrective action was to insure that ICP samples ;
were analyzed. This action was considered marginally acceptable. All of the remaining results were within the control limits, passed the outliers test, and are considered acceptable by the EPA.
During the second half of 1996, Thermo Nutech analyzed 16 ICP samples. The ICP samples for Gross Alpha and Gross Beta dated 7/19/96 were analyzed, but no data was submitted. The Gross l Beta result which was not submitted would have been an outlier. Thermo Nutech conducted an l investigation of both of these incidents and the corrective actions were acceptable.
The CEP and Thermo Nutech measurement results are presented in Table C-1 along with the acceptable EPA values for each test. '

l l
l INTRALABORATORY QUAUTY ASSURANCE PROGRAM l l
CEP and Thermo Nutech by coisact also operate an Intralaboratory Comparison Program (Quality Assurance Program) to maintain an acceptable quality level on a routine basis. j l
As part of their Quality Assurance Program, both laboratories perform a background counts, an ,
analysis of a spiked samples, and duplicate sample counts for every ten Rancho Seco REMP samples analyzed. These quality control procedures are performed for all analyses except gamma !
spectrometry, for which weekly energy and efficency checks are performed. The spiked and !
duplicate samples are prepared by personnel not directly involved with the analysis. Spiked I samples, as well as the radioactive sources used for the gamma spectrometer checks, are traceable to the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST). ]
In all cases during 1996, the duplicate analyses and the tritium spikes were acceptable for both I laboratories.
RANCHO SECO AUDIT AND SURVEILLANCE RESULTS The Rancho Seco Quality Program requires penodic audits of REMP activities, including CEP and Thermo NUtech. Contract laboratory performance is evaluated annually by the Rancho Seco QA Department. The 1996 evaluation determined that Thermo NUtech performed adequately based on a NUPIC audit conducted by another Utility, CONCLUSIONS The intralaboratory and Interlaboratory results provided by the EPA and CEP indicate that CEP's -
performance was acceptable.
DIRECT RADIATION (TLD) COMPARISON PROGRAM The TLD vendor, ICN Dosimetry Services, participates in a monthly blind spike comparison testing program sponsored by the University of Michigan. A review of ICN's results of the participation in this testing program indicates that ICN has satisfactorily completed all of the required tests for the types of environmental radiation monitored at RSNS.
This comparison program satisfies the requirement of the REMP manual section 6.0.

SAMPLE COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS METHODS l
For each of the sample media collected, the method of collection is documented in Rancho ,
Seco Nuclear Station procedures. Detailed analysis methods are documented in procedures !
controlled by the contract laboratory, Thermo Nutech. A brief description of these collection and analysis methods is included in this Appendix.
Sample Media Collection / Analysis Method
)
AIR A mechanical air sampler continuously moves air through a filter designed to capture particulates by filter paperimpaction. The samplers I are equipped with a flow totalizer which measures the volume of air that !
has passed through the filter paper. An elapsed time meter is installed l to identify pump motor malfunctions.
The filter paper is exchanged weekly. At least one day is allowed to elapse between sample collection and counting to reduce the interference of naturally occurring radon and thorium daughters on the !
sample analysis. The filter paper is assayed for gross beta radioactivity I by placing the filter on a stainless steel planchet and counted with an intemal gas flow proportional counter.
i The individual particulate filter papers are saved over a calendar quarter l and the composite collection is assayed for gamma isotopic radioactivity l by gamma spectroscopy.
DIRECT RADIATION Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) are located within a fifteen (15) mile radius of the site. TLD's within a ten (10) mile radius are considered indicator TLD's. Two (2) TLD's, each containing three CaSO4Dy phosphors, are placed at each monitoring location to assure adequate data recovery and to improve measurement statistics. The TLD field exposure cycle is approximately ninoty (90) days. At the end of the field exposure cycle, the TLD's are exchanged with recently annealed ones and retumed to a contract laboratory for processing. The exposure reported by the laboratory is the average of six values, corrected for non-field exposure cycle contributions.

ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM DESIGN PROGRAM BASIS
- The Sacramento Municipal Utility District conducts a continuous Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) at the Rancho Seco Nuclear Station to assess the impact of Station operation on the surrounding environment. The current Post-Operation REMP h a continuation of a similar program initiated prior to and during operation of the Station.
Samples of the surrounding environment are collected on a routine basis and analyzed to determine the amount of radiation and radioactive materials present in the exposure pathways.
The Califomia Department of Health Services conducts a parallel environmental monitoring program under contract from the USNRC.
During 1996 the program was directed and executed by the Radiation Protection / Chemistry Superintendent. Sample collection is performed by the Technical Staff and the ChemlRad Decommissioning Technicians. Data review and Program maintenance are performed by the Radiological Health Supervisor. The Program is operated with primary accountability and cognizance of the Manager, Plant Closure and Decommissioning.
The Program is designed consistent with Title 10, Code of Federal Reaulations. Part 50, Appendix l - Section IV, 8.2, B.3 and C, and Appendix A, " General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants," Criterion 64. The program also complies with Title 10, Code of Federal Reaulations. Part 20, " Standards for Protection Against Radiation," Section 1302. These federal requirements are cited in the Rancho Seco Permanently Defueled Technical Specifications and the REMP manual. REMP requirements are implemented through the review, approval and routine use of several docume'1ts, namely the REMP Manual, Offsite Dose Calculation Manual, Surveillance Procedures and Health Physics Implementing -
Procedures.
The programmatic elements of the REMP are based on regulatory requirements and associated guidelines. The objectives of the Program are to:
- 1. Provide the technological basis and the instruction for monitoring the environs for radioactivity sources. The radioactive sources which contribute to detectable radioactivity in the local environs are comprised of:
=> naturally occurring background,
=> releases during normal operations,
=> world-wide weapons testing, and
=> major global nuclear accidents Rancho Seco E-1 1996 AREOR I
, PROGRAM BASIS l (Continued) l
- 2. Provide the means to verify the effectiveness of the Rancho Seco Nuclear Station Radiological Effluents Control Program.
- 3. Meet the minimum detectable limits for radioisotopes in environmental samples.
- 4. Provide quantitative measurements in the gaseous, liquid and direct radiation exposure pathways for radionuclides.
l 5. Provide indications of the largest potential radiation exposure for individuals as a result '
l of radionuclides in the principle exposure pathways.
The Program is developed and conducted using recognized standards and practices NRC79a, NRC79b, NUREG79, NUREG80a.

1 REMP CHANGES The Permanently Defueled Technical Specifications administrative requirements for the REMP program were not revised during 1996. The REMP manual (revision 9) was revised on January 21,1997 to:
- 1. Change the frequency of the Land Use Census from annual to biennial.
- 2. Change the radius for the Land Use Census from five miles to two miles.
i These changes are reflected in Appendix A of this report.
]
EXPOSURE PATHWAYS l
The fundamental parameters which have been defined prior to monitoring the environs are: ,
I
- 1. Identification of the effluent release pathways
- 2. Identification of the human exposure pathways j
- 3. Identification of the land use parameters by the population within a two mile ,
radius of the plant site. ;
l Each of these three parameters is discussed below. j l
Effluent Release Pathways l There are three principal pathways which may result in human exposure to radiation and radioactive material originating from Station operation: ,
- 1. Gaseous effluents
- 2. Liquid effluents and
- 3. Direct radiation from these effluents and onsite sources.
Gaseous Effiuents Gaseous ventilation and process effluents are released, through particulate filtration units to the environment from the Reactor Building, Auxiliary Building and Auxiliary Building Grade Level Vent stacks.

EXPOSURE PATHWAYS l
Effluent Release Pathways ;
(continued)
In the gaseous pathway, airborne radioactive materials can be inhaled or ingested by humans.
Animals can inhale or ingest radioactive matenal present in the atmosphere which are !
retained in animal food products (meat or milk). Radioactive materials which are carried by air currents can also be deposited on vegetation or water sources which are in turn directly consumed by humans or animals.
Liauid Effluents 1
in the liquid exposure pathway, radioactive materials in surface waters can be ingested by humans directly or indirectly through the consumption of aquatic foods such as fish and ,
shellfish. Humans can consume vegetation which is irrigated with Clay Creek water which may l contain radioactive material. Another exposure pathway from liquid effluents results from the l
consumption of animal products such as meat and milk from animals which have fed upon ;
irrigated vegetation or otherwise drank Clay Creek water. 1 Direct Radiation In the direct radiation pathway, potential radiation exposure may occur from radioactive material storage vessels which are contained within the site boundary such as the Borated i Water Storage Tank. People can potentially be exposed to direct radiation from gaseous effluents or from ground deposition of particulates deposited on the ground from gaseous or liquid effluents. When the fuel off-load is completed, the ISFSI will become part of the direct radiation pathway.
Rancho Seco E-4 1996 AREOR
1 LAND USE CENSUS On an biennial basis, a land use census is conducted within a two mile radius to identify any changes in the human exposure pathways. The Land Use Census is used to determine the changes needed for REMP monitoring activities. The results of the land use census conducted during 1996 is presented in Appendix A of this Report. From data obtained from the Land Use Census, exposure pathways are analyzed through a systematic process which identifies a sample medium or organism that is found to potentially contribute to an individual's radiation exposure. Usage and bioaccumulation factors (NRC77) are then specified which represent the magnitude of radioactive material transfer through the food chain to a receptor.
The analysis of the effluent and exposure pathways enables monitoring sites to be identified as " indicator"(for sites at which the potential effects of Station effluents would be readily detected) or " control" (for those sites which are not expected to be influenced by Station operation). The analysis results of samples obtained at indicator and control sites are routinely compared to identify potential exposures above background levels.
MONITORING LOCATION SELECTION I
The REMP maintains the monitoring sites required by the REMP manual, Table 6. This I program is supplemented with additional samples to compensate for changes in the I radiological environment surrounding Rancho Seco. Some of the monitoring sites were also selected by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the Cali?omia Department of Health Services as part of their monitoring programs. Indicator sites are placed in areas which would be most sensitive to the effects of Station effluents such as downwind or downstream areas near the Station. If radioactive materialis detected above background at any of these indicator sites, observed potential exposure and dose to humans can be i estimated to verify the effectiveness of the Offsite Dose Calculation Manualin predicting l potential exposures or doses. It is important to note that the detection of radioactive material I in indicator samples does not necessarily mean that it's presence .an be attributed to Rancho ,
Seco operations, Moreover, especially with most liquid effluent pathway samples, the J detection of radioactive materialis difficult to interpret since it is unknown when the material j was deposited. In many instances, the observed radioactive material could correctly be '
ascribed to historical (pre-1996) depositions.
l Control locations provide data that should not be influenced by the operation of Rancho Seco. l These locations are selected based upon distance from the Station in the upwind or upstream direction of the effluent release pathways. Samples obtained from controllocations should, upon analysis, revealinformation about the presence and distribution of naturally occurring and man-made radioactive materials. Data from these locations are used to aid in the discrimination between the effects of Rancho Seco releases and other natural phenomena or accidental releases (such as the 1986 Chemobyl accident) which may result in human exposure.
Rancho Seco E-5 1996 AREOR
/
MONITORING LOCATION SELECTION l (contintad)
Gaseous effluent indicator monitoring sites are generally placed in areas which receive prevailing winds crossing the Rancho Seco site. Liquid radioactive effluents are discharged in batches from two onsite Retention Basins into "No Name" Creek located southwest of the Station. Dilution water, obtained from the Folsom South Canal, is discharged into "No Name" Creek to give reasonable assurance of compliance with the 10CFR50, Appendix I dose guidelines. "No Name" Creek flows southerly into the Clay Creek. Without this dilution water flow, the Clay Creek would be in a dry state for most of the year.
Beyond the Site Boundary at a point north of Highway 104, the Clay Creek empties into the !
Hadselville Creek. Hadselville Creek then empties into the Laguna Creek at a point west of !
North Clay Station Road near the Folsom South Canal. Finally, Laguna Creek flows into the Cosumnes River at a point located approximately 20 straight-line miles west of Rancho Seco.
Since this stream system is the only routine release pathway for liquid radioactive and non- I radioactive effluents from the Statior), the liquid exposure pathway indicator sites are located I along these creeks and nearby land.
The direct radiation pathway is monitored principally through a network of passive devices '
(thermoluminescent dosimeters - TLD's) at monitoring sites distributed in sectors centered on the Station. The TLD's are located primarily at the site, residential, and recreational areas around the Rancho Seco location. This design provides the capability to easily detect Station-induced direct radiation contriuutions to the observed terrestrial and cosmic direct radiation background.
Some TLD's have been sited in special locations to record direct radiation resulting from known depositions of radioactive material and to provide pre-operational data forthe Interim Spent Fuel Storage Installation (ISFSI).
Appendix B contains a detailed description and illustration of the HEMP sample and monitoring locations.

' l SAMPLE MEDIA Samples are collected from predetermined monitoring sites at a specified frequency. The sample media chosen is a function of the type of monitoring desired and coincide with one of the following exposure pathways:
o Atmospheric o Direct radiation o Terrestrial o Aquatic life o Water Atmospheric monitoring is accomplished by filtering a volume of air using a mechanical air pump to collect particulates with a particulate filter paper. Four air sampler locations are used to collect weekly air samples. Two locations (Meteorlogical Tower and Rancho Seco Reservoir) are cor. trol locations and the remaining two locations are indicator locations on the plant sita. A new controllocation (RAS 1.8FP) was added on 3/19/96. The air sample filter heads were moved to the outside of the air sampling enclosure in 1996.
Direct radiation monito@J is achieved by placing TLD's at above-ground sites. TLD's respond to, and record the amount of, gamma radiation exposure. The source of this gamma radiation exposure is varied and includes potential Station effluents and naturally-occurring terrestrial and cosmogonic radionuclides. The TLD's are also influenced by seasonal and global (fallout) radiation sources. Almost all the exposure recorded by a TLD could be traced i to terrestrial radionuclides. .
There are 34 sites which are monitored by thermoluminesence dosimetry within a 10-mile radius of the Station. The TLD's are placed at the dtation Industrial Area Boundary, near the property boundary, locations of interest such as nearby residences, and also at control locations located beyond five miles of the Station.

i SAMPLE MEDIA l
(continued) l
]
Terrestrial monitoring is accomplished by obtaining samples of sediment, soil, and garden vegetation to measure the quantity of radioactive material deposited from gaseous and liquid effluents. There are 5 mud and silt,27 soil, and 2 garden vegetation locations.
Aquatic monitoring includes the sampling of fish and algae. Algae is an excellent concentrator of radioactivity contained in water and is sampled to provide an early indication of increased liquid radioactive material concentration. There are 4 fish and 5 algae sample locations.
Water monitoring includes samples of surface, runoff, drinking, and well sources from locations in the liquid effluent pathway and from area wells. The 6 surface water sampling locations monitor site supply water (Folsom South Canal), runoff water and water discharged from the Station. Drinking water is sampled from 5 groundwater wells and two drinking water taps. Rain water is also collected at one location on a seasonal basis.
SAMPLE ANALYSIS & DATA HANDLING The laboratory which provides radio-analytical services for the Program for the first half of i I
1996 is Controls for Environmental Pollution (CEP) located in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Starting with the second half of 1996 (July 1,1996 ) analysis servises were provided by Thermo Nutech located in Richmond, Califomia. Sample analysis results submitted by CEP and Thermo Nutech are reviewed for accuracy and completeness and then entered into a computerized data base for evaluation and trending.
l Data comparisons are made between individual cor,r of and indicator sample sites to isolate {'
potential Station influences on the measurement results.
The summarized results of the 1996 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program are presented in Table 2. i Individual (raw data) results are presented in Appendix F, Tables F-1 through F-11. l l

. caused the reporting limits to be exceeded. l l
) In addition to the Fuel Cycle Dose reporting requirements, a Special Report is required to be i i submitted to the USNRC when more than one of the radionuclides in Table E-1 are detected in
- the sampling medium and the summed ratio of detected activity concentration to the respective !
Reporting Level concentration is greater than, or equal to, unity (1). When radionuclides other < !
than those listed in Table E-1 are detected which are a result of Station effluents, a Special i Report is required to be submitted if the potential annual dose commitment exceeds the 10 l 3 CFR 50, Appendix ! guidelines.
!' No reports of the types described above were required to be submitted during 1996.
j SENSITIVITY OF THE REMP MEASUREMENT PROCESS i
All Program measurements must be performed at e ensitivity which meets USNRC requirements. This sensitivity is determined "before the fact" (a prion) for each radionuclide of j- interest and sample analysis type. Typical controllable sensitivity parameters include: j i

I SENSITIVITY OF THE REMP MEASUREMENT PROCESS (continued)
By adjusting and controlling each of these parameters to maximize measurement process efficiency, a maximum sensitivity level (activity concentration) can be specified for each nuclide of interest and analysis type while maintaining an economic measurement process. The maximum sensitivities in the REMP are specified by the USNRC in the REMP Manus!
approved for Rancho Seco. These sensitivities are referred to as "LLD's", an acronym for
" Lower Limit of Detection". LLD's are specified on an "a pnorf' basis and apply to routine measurement process capabilities when no other interfering radioactivity is present. The word ,
" routine"is emphasized since occasional circumstances, such as limited sample mass, elevated levels of background radiation and interfering nuclides can contribute to sensitivity degradation.
Such occurrences are normally noted and reported during the conduct of REMP activities.
l l
Meeting the LLD requirements is a quality control function shared by both REMP and the l analytical laboratory personnel. Once the laboratory establishes values for the controllable I parameters for each analysis type, sample chain of custody controls ensure that these parameters are upheld. If all parameters are upheld, then compliance with the LLD requirements has been demonstrated. The specific LLD values for Program measurements are included in Table E-2.
Since most of the samples analyzed result in the detection decision " activity not identified", a Minimum Detectable Activity (MDA) concentration value is calculated and reported. This value can be thought of as the LLD-at-the-time-of-counting since it is calculated using an equation which is similar to the one used to establish LLD parameters. The biggest difference is that actual (not "a prion") parameters are used, including interference from natural radioactive material in the sample. It is important to note that MDA's are reported only for those .
measurements where the " activity not identified" decision has already been made. I MDA values are used primarily to identify changes in the measurement process and to convey more information about the measurement itself. Without the use of the MDA concept, most Program measurements would be reported simply as "<LLD". With MDA used, Program measurements are reported as "< xxx " where "xxx" is the calculated MDA concentration, i Rancho Seco E-10 1996 AREOR
