Letter, P.B. Perez, NCSU, to USNRC Region ll Administrator, Notification of a Reportable Eventin Accordance with the NCSU PULSTAR Reactor's Technical

> Specifications Reporting Requirements, dated 2 May 1997

Dear Sir or Madam:

North Carolina State University notified the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission on 2 May 1997 of a reportable event regarding liquid effluent levels. An error in the counting efficiency determination resulted in under-estimating the actual concentration and activity of tritium released to the sanitary sewer. However, the corrected tritium concentrations in all cases remain below: (1) 10 CFR 20 Appendix B, Table 3 sanitary sewer discharge concentration limit by a factor of 100, and (2) 10 CFR 20.2001 annual total activity release limit by a factor of over 1000. l l

The efficiency error affected item 6.7.5.f.1 in the previous three annual reports. Corrective

. actions to this event included correcting the affected annual reports. The attached three l tables on the following page summarize the corrected data. The previously reported numbers are provided as a reference in the shaded cells.

Please feel free to contact me at (919) 515-4602 or Mr. Gerald Wicks, Reactor Health Physicist at (919) 515-4601 if you have any questions or comments.

Sincerely yours, 97060$0255 970527 '
