PROGRN1 SUIf4ARY Since April 1972 Radiation flanagement Corporation (Rf1C) has conducted the Pre-operational Radiological Environmntal fionitoring Program (REl1P) for Pennsylvania Power and Light Company (PP&L) at the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SES). This report presents the analytical results for samples taken during 1981. A total of 3125 analyses on 2239 samples including direct radiation, surface water, well water, potable water, sediment, air particulates, air iodine, precipitation, milk, fish, food products, meat, game, vegetation, pasture grass and soil was performed in 1901. A variety of radionuclides, both naturally occurring and man-made, were detec-ted in the environs of the Susquehanna SES. llaturally occurring radionuclides were found at levels expected for that environment. The man-made radionuclides found, primarily in air particulates, precipitation and pasture grass, were the fission products typically found in nuclear weapon test fallout. In particular, f allout from the atmospheric nuclear weapon test by the People's Republic of China on October 16, 1980 was observed in samples collected in the first half of the year. The detection of this event indicates that the Susquehanna SES REf4P is sensitive to fluctuations in the radiological characteristics of the environment around Susquehanna SES. 3 L

INTRODUCTION The Susquehanna SES will contain 2 BWR generating units, each with a capacity of about 1050 flWe. Units #1 and #2 are scheduled for initial criticality in 1982 and 1984, respectively. This site is located on a 1075 acre tract along the Susque-hanna River, five miles northeast of Berwick in Salem Township, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. The area surrounding the site can generally be characterized as rural, with forest and agricultural lands predominating. flore specific information on the dem-ography, hydrology, meteorology and land use characteristics of the local area may be found in the Environmental Report (1), the Safety Analysis Report (2) and the Draft Environmental Statement - 0.L. (3) for Susquehanna SES. RMC has previously reported resulte fr - the preoperational radiological environ-mental monitoring program (REMP) from *i'2-1980 (4-12); the present document continues the series with coverage for 1981. It resents in detail the type and number of sam- .ples collected, the analyses performes and the data generated. 7
, '*4 PROGRAM
PROGRAft The preoperational REf1P continued in 1981 and will continue until initial criti-cality of Unit #1. At that time, the operational phase of the program will be insti-tuted and continue thereafter. The RE!!P was designed utilizing the guidance in the Branch Technical Position to the fluclear Regulatory Comission Regulatory Guide 4.8, Rev. 1,fiovember 1979(13) and ORP/SID 72-2, Environmental Radioactivity Surveillance Guide (14). The REftP was designed:
- 1. Te stablish baseline radiological characteristics of the environs of Susquehanna SES for comparison with future data;
- 2. To assure that media sampled and analyzed are sensitive to fluctuations in the radiological characteristics of the Susquehanna SES environs; and to assure that the program will be responsive to station radioeffluent discharge;
- 3. To monitor potential critical pathways of station radioeffluent to man.
Samples for the 1981 REftP were taken from direct, waterborne, airborne and inges-tion pathways with emphasis on those media which would yield data for the evaluation of radiation dose to man. Specific sampling locations were chosen on the basis of potential water use, site meteorology, local demography and land uses. Environmental sampling locations were divided into two classes, indicator and control. Indicator samples were those collected at locations which would be expected 1 to manifest future station effects, if any, and were selected on the basis of distance from the site, topography, hydrology, meteorology, demography, and drainage character-istics. Control samples were collected at locations which are expected to be unaffected by station operation. Table 1 summarizes the Susquehanna REMP as perfonned in 1981. Appendix A summarizes the results of the REf1P analyses and compares indicator and control location results. Appendix B describes the RMC coding system, which specifies sample type and location. Included in Appendix B. Table B-1 gives the pertinent information on individual sampling locations, while Maps B-1 and B-2 show the sampling locations. The data for individual i samples are presented in tabular form in Appendix C. A synopsis of the analytical pro-i cedures used for the samples appears in Appendix D. Appendix E contains the results of l RMC's participation in the EPA inter-laboratory comparison program. Appendix F contains l the results of. demographic data surveys perforned in 1981. Sample Collection l Waterborne pathways were examined by analyzing samples of surface water, ground water, potable (drinking) water and sediment. Surface, ground and potable water sam-i ples were collected in unused two gallon plastic containers weekly and monthly. Sus-quehanna River sediment was also sampled. l Airborne pathways were examined by analyzing air particulates, air iodine and pre-l cipitation. Air particulates were collected weekly on Gelman type-A/E, glass fiber fil-ters with low volume air samplers. Air iodine was collected on one inch deep Science l Applications, Inc. charcoal cartridges. Air sample volumes were measured with tempera- , ture-compensated dry-gas meters. Precipitation samples were collected in unused two ( gallon plastic containers monthly. l 11 l
Ingestion pathways were examined by analyzing samples of fish, milk, pasture grass, game, locally grown food products and soil. Several species of fish samples were collected in spring and late summer at both the control and indicator locations, filleted and frozen for shipment to RMC. Milk, food products and pasture grass were purchased directly from local fanners. Game samples were obtained by hunting or from road killed animals. Twelve plugs were collected at each location. Each plug was split into a topsoil sample and a subsoil sample. The twelve topsoil samples were combined to make one topsoil sample and the twelve subsoil samples were combined to make one subsoil sample. This resulted in one topsoil sample and one subsoil sample from each soil sampling location. Direct radiation measurements were made using thennoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) consisting of calcium sulfate doped with thulium (CaS0 (Tm)). The TLDs were placed at locations designed to take advantage of local meteofologic and topographic charac-teristics and population distribution characteristics. Data Interpretation The radioanalytical and direct radiation data collected during 1981, together with that collected previously, will be used as a baseline with which operational data may be compamd. Several factors are important in the interpretation of the data. These factors are discussed here to avoid repetition in sections that follow. Within the data tables (Appendix C) a 95% ( 2 sigma) confidence interval is supplied for each result above the lower limit of detection (LLD) with the exception of strontium-89, -90 analyses, which are mported as minimum detectable level (MDL). Numerically, the LLD is equal to 4.66 times the square root of the quotient resulting from the background counts divided by the background counting time. The result is then divided by a dpm/ picocurie conversion factor, the counting e"ficiency and the sample volume. Whereas the MDL is equal to 3 times the square roct of the quotient resulting from the background counts divided by the background counting time. This result is then divided by the dpm/ picocurie conversion factor, the counter efficiency and the sample aliquot (the exact specifications of the calculations are noted in AppendixD). The MDL or LLD is reported when the 2 sigma error exceeds 100% of the calculated activity. The 2 sigma intervals represent the range of values into which 95% of repeated analyses of the same sample would fall. The LLD quoted for particu-lar sample types (Table C-29) are nominal values. The actual LLD is calculated for each sample analyzed and will show variability due to the amount of sample analyzed, the length of time between sample collection and counting, the length of time a par-ticular sample was counted and fluctuations in counting background. It is characteristic of environmental monitoring data that many results occur at or below the LLD. In this report, all results occurring at or below the relevant LLD were reported as being "less than" the LLD value. Results for each type of sample were grouped according to the analysis performed. Averages and standard deviations of these results were calculated when applicable. The calculated standard deviations of grouped data (by location or over time) repre-sent sample rather than analytical variability. For these calculations any values i below LLD were considered to be at the LLD; thus, these averages were biased high and the corresponding standard deviations were biased low. Averages were not calcu-lated when a group of data was composed of many (>50%) LLD values. 12
Program Exceptions 4 As the REMP for Susquehanna SES progressed in 1981, certain samples and analyses were inadvertently omitted from the schedule. These exceptions are delineated, and the reasons for the omission stated. However, taking into account all program excep-tions, it should be noted that the 1981 Susquehanna SES REMP had a 98% completion rate. Surface Water
- 1. The monthly samples from stations 12F1 and 12G2 for January and February were not collected because the river was frozen.
- 2. The monthly analysis for iodine-131 was omitted in February for station 6S5 due to a delay in sample shipment.
- 3. The weekly samples for iodine-131 analysis were not collected at station 12F1 in January and the first and second weeks of February because the river was frozen.
- 4. The weekly samples from station 3G2 were not collected in the first three weeks of January and the first week of February because the river was frozen.
- 5. The weekly sample from station 3G5 was not collected during the second week of February because the river was frozen.
- 6. Six weekly samples from May and June were lost in shipment. These were two samples from station SS8 and one sample each from stations ID3, 3G1, 3G2 and 3G5.
- 7. The weekly samples for iodine-131 analysis were not collected during the fourth week in December from stations 3G2 and 3G5 because the river was frozen.
Air Particulates and Air Iodine
- 1. No samples were received from station 12E1 between January 3 and January 11 due to a sampler malfunction.
- 2. No samples were received from station 12G1 between April 19 and April 26 due to a sampler malfunction.
- 3. No samples were received from station 7G1 between May 3 and May 10 due to a sampler malfunction.
- 4. Sample collection was missed on June 24 for station 7H1 due to collector error; therefore, the sample collected on July 2 represents a two week period.
Precipitation
- 1. No samples were received in January because the water was frozen.
- 2. No samples were received from stations 11S2 and 12G2 in February because the water was frozen.
13
Milk
- 1. flo sample was available from station 7C1 and 8D1 in July and 7C1 in September because of the limited supply of goat milk.
- 2. 110 sample was received from station 8D1 from January to March because the goat was dry.
Food Products fio samples were received from stations 11D2 and 12F4 because the farmer who farms both farms did not plant this year. Pasture Grass fio sample was received from ctation 15A1 from January through March due to snow Cover. TLD flo sample was received from station 7F1 for the third quarter due to a loss in the field. Program Changes Additions to the program were made in 1981. These were added in order to better reflect any changes in radioactivity levels during Susquehanna SES operation. These changes are noted.
- 1. Surface water station 3H3 was changed to 3G5 when it was determined that the wrong designation had been in use.
- 2. Air particulate and air iodine stations 15S4 and 7G1 were added for weekly collection.
- 3. Goat milk station 7C1 was added for quarterly iodine-131 analysis. Pas-ture grass will be sampled during the months milk is not collected.
- 4. The fish control location designation was changed from 2G to 2H when it was determined that the wrong designation had been in use.
- 5. Analysis of topsoil and subsoil samples at fourteen locations was added.
Samples will be collected at three year intervals at which time the need for further collection will be evaluated.
- 6. TLD stations 3H1 and 3H2 were changed to 3G3 and 3G4 respectively, when it was determined that the wrong designations had been in use.
- 7. TLD station 14S2 was relocated to station 14S5 on June 29 in order to avoid obstructions.
- 8. Two TLD stations 15S4 and 10B3 were added as part of a continuing effort to upgrade the Environmental Monitoring Program.
14
l Some analyses were added as well. These are noted below.
- 1. Gross alpha and tritium analyses were changed from quarterly compo-site to monthly for potable water station 12il2 in April.
- 2. Iodine-131 and gamma spectrometry analyses were increased to semi-monthly for milk stations 12B2 SE1,13E3 and 10G1 during the-months when cows are on pasture, April to September.
Some deletions were made to the program since sufficient data is provided in the remaining program to monitor the radiological characteristics of the environment. These deletions are noted below.
- 1. Tritium and gamma spectrometry of precipitation samples were changed from monthly to quarterly composite beginning with the second quarter.
- 2. Food product samples.from stations SS6,11A3 and 12E3 were taken in 1980 as supplements for that year and therefore, were not collected in 1981.
- 3. Analysis of meat and game bones and egg shells was discontinued for 1981 samples.
- 4. A deer sample was not collected due to the difficulty in hunting and obtaining road kill samples.
- 5. The broad leaf vegetation sampling in the sectors with the highest D/Q was changed from 13S3 and 14S3 to 7S4 and 8S3 because new cal-culations indicated a change in the sectors with the highest D/Q for 1981.

4 RESULTS AllD-DISCUSSI0fl All environmental sanples.and TLDs were analyzed by standard Ri1C analytical pro-cedures (15). A synopsis of these procedures appears in Appendix D. Since the preci-sion and accuracy of the analytical results is of paramount importance, R!iC devoted a i fraction (usually.15-20%) of all analyses to quality control including process quality control, instrument quality control, inter-laboratory cross-check analyses and compre-hensive data review. The results of Rl4C's QC program for 1981 are included in a sepa-rate RMC report (16). One important aspect in maintaining laboratory quality control is R!1C's participation in the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) inter-laboratory comparison program. This data appears in R!1C's annual QC report and is also presented as Appendix E to this report. The analytical results of the 1981 RE!!P have been divided into four categories: waterborne, airborne, ingestion and direct radiation. The individual sanples and anal-yses within each category provide an adequate means of estimating radiation. doses to individuals from the principal pathways. The analytical .results for the 1981 program i are summarized in Appendix A. The data for individual samples are presented in tabular fonn in Appendix C. The sensitivities stated in the Branch Technical Position were met for all samples (13). Waterborne Pathway The waterborne pathways of exposure from Susquehanna SES were evaluated by analyzing samples of surface water, well water, potable water and sediment. 1 Surface Water (Tables C-1, C-2, C-3 and C-4) The Susquehanna River was sampled monthly at seven locations. Daily grab samples were collected at 12H1 (Merck Company) then composited into a monthly sample. lionthly samples were also composited from weekly grabs at station SS8 (under the' power line) and station 6S5 (outfall area). fionthly grab samples were collected at station 103 (Mocanagua Substation), station 13E1 (Glen Brook Reservoir), station 12F1 (Bemick Bridge) and station 12G2 (between Bloomsburg and Bemick). Monthly surface water i samples were analyzed for gross beta, gamma emitters and iodine-131. Quarterly com-posites were analyzed for tritium, strontium-89 and -90. Weekly grab samples were collected from stations 103,12F1, 2F2 (Retmat Bridge), 3G1 (Lower Bridge Plynouth) 3G2 (flanticoke Bridge) and 3G5 (Market Street Bridge) and weekly composite samples were collected from stations SS8 and 12H1 in order to study the occurrence of detectable concentrations of iodine-131 in the river water. A mon-thly effluent water grab sample was collected at station 1D5 (Shickshinny Sewage Treat-ment facility) for iodine-131 analysis. Analysis for beta emitters in samples of surface water showed detectable activity in 72 of 80 sanples, with results. ranging from 1.0 to 6.9 pCi/1. The gross beta results were consistent with the data previously obtained from 1972-1980 (4-12). fliobium-95 was observed in five samples and ruthenium-103 was observed in one of eighty samples analyzed for gamma emitters. These nuclides were observed in the first half of the year and are consistent with the data obtained from air particulates and precipitation. The occurrence of these nuclides can be attributed to the atmospheric nuclear weapons test by the People's Republic of China. Potassium-40 and thorium-232 were observed in the June sample from station 12H1. This is probably due to sediment 19
contamination of the sample. These nuclides are typically found in sediment samples. Cobalt-60 was found in the April sample from station 12G2. Positive iodine results, in surface water, were reported in 68 of 402 samples with values ranging from 0.08 to 1.0 pCi/l. These results were observed sporadically during all months except April and at all weekly stations. Since~Susquehanna SES is not in operation, iodine-131 in the surface water can be attributed to other sources of contamination of the river. The analysis of tritium in surface water showed detectable activity in 17 of 28 samples with results ranging from 68 to 183 pCi/1. This is well below the action level of 20,000 pCi/l as quoted in the Branch Technical Position (13). The average tritium concentrations in surface water samples shows a gradual decline for the period 1973 to 1981. This is likely the result of a reduction in atmospheric tritium from nuclear detonations. Average tritium concentrations for all locations since 1973 were graphed in Figure 1. Positive tritium results are reported when the 2 sigma counting error is less than the result. In some cases, this may cause positive re-sults to be reported, which are lower than the calculated LLDs. For clarification of the method of calculation, see Appendix D, Analysis of Water Samples for Tritium. Levels of strontium-89 were below MDL (0.6 to 2.7 pCi/1) in twenty-four of twenty-eight samples. Strontium-89 was found in four samples. The range of con-centrations (0.4 to 0.8 pCi/1) was comparable to the MDL levels found in the other samples. Levels of detectable strontium-90 ranged from 0.2 to 1.1 pCi/l in ten of the twenty-eight samples. The MDL values ranged from 0.4 to 1.1 pCi/1. Well Water (Tables C-5, C-6 and C-7) Three wells, the peach stand on-site (4S2), the Serafin Farm (15A4) and the Berwick Water Co. (12F3), were sampled monthly. Gross beta and gamma analyses were performed on the monthly samples. Gross alpha and tritium analyses were performed on quarterly composites of monthly grab samples. Gross beta results showed positive values in twenty-six of thirty-six samples with results ranging from 1.2 to 7.4 pCi/1. LLDs ranged from 1.7 to 2.4 pCi/1. Potassium-40 was observed in two samples collected from station 15A4. Both results were below the LLD normally obtained for potassium-40. This indicates that these analyses were unusually sensitive, however the results may reflect actual concentrations. All other garmia emitting nuclides were less than LLD. All twelve results for gross alpha were below the LLD which ranged from 0.9 to 2.6 pCi/1. Six of twelve samples showed positive tritium results ranging from 72 to 150 pCi/1 with LLDs ranging from 118 to 122 pCi/1. Positive results for gross beta, gross alpha and tritium compared closely to the respective LLDs for those anal-yses and to results found in previous REMP reports (4-12). Potable (Drinking) Water (Tables C-8, C-9 and C-10) l Potable water was sampled monthly at two locations, the Berwick Water Company (12F3) and the Danville Water Company (12H2). In addition, weekly samples were col-lected from station 12H2 for iodine-131 analysis. Gross beta and gamma emitters were 20
analyzed monthly. Strontium-89 and -90 were analyzed as quarterly composites. Gross alpha and tritium were analyzed as quarterly composites for station 12F3 and monthly for station 12H2. Sixteen of twenty-four samples showed positive gross beta results ranging from 1.3 to 8.5 pCi/1 and averaging 2.4 pCi/1. All results from all gamma emitting nuclides were less than LLD. Two samples collected from January and one sample collected from flovember showed positive results (0.14-0.3 pCi/1) for iodine-131 analyses at the Danville Water Cor.pany. This was found to be consistent with iodine-131 activity in weekly surface water samples. All others were below the LLD. All fourteen results for gross alpha were below the LLD which ranged from 0.5 to 2.3 pCi/1. These results compare favorably to the EPA drinking water action level of 15 pCi/l for gross alpha (17). Nine of fourteen samples analyzed showed positive tritium results ranging from 70 to 383 pCi/1, with LLDs ranging from 102 to 122 pCi/l for the others. The results fall below the EPA tritium action level of 20,000 pCi/l for drinking water (17). The tritium results, for potable water, were consistent with results for tritium observed in surface water of the Susquehanna River. All results for strontium-89 were below the MDL of 0.6 to 1.7 pCi/1. Two detecta-ble concentrations of strontium-90 (0.2 and 0.5 pCi/1) were observed in eight samples. The MDL values ranged from 0.4 to 0.8 pCi/1. Sediment (Tables C-11 and C-12) Sediment samples were taken semiannually from three locations in the Susquehanna River. Samples were taken at Bell Bend (78), downstream near Hess Island (11C) and upstream near Gould Island (28). Samples were analyzed for gamma emitting nuclides, gross alpha, strontium-89 and -90. Naturally-occurring K-40, Ra-226 and Th-232 were detected in all samples. Be-7, from cosmic ray activity, was also observed in one of the six samples analyzed. Cs-137 was detected in all samples, with levels ranging from 0.06 to 0.14 pCi/g(dry). Zircon-ium-95, niobium-95, ruthenium-103, cerium-141 and cerium-144 were observed in the sedi-ment samples especially in the May samples. These nuclides were consistent with those observed in surface water and can be attributed to the atmospheric nuclear weapons test on October 16, 1980. Gross alpha analyses showed positive values for five of six samples, ranging from 5.2 to 14 pCi/g(dry). One sample analyzed for strontium-89 showed a positive result of 0.15 pCi/g(dry). This result is similar to the MDL values. All other strontium-89 re-sults were below the MDL of 0.1 pCi/g(dry). Three of six samples showed positive stron-tium-90 results ranging from 0.02 to 0.07 pCi/g(dry). The other results were below the MDL (0.03 to 0.07 pCi/g(dry)). Airborne Pathway The airborne pathways of exposure from Susquehanna SES were evaluated by analyzing samples of air particulates, air iodine cartridges and precipitation. Samples of air w2re collected at twelve stations; the Information Center (2S2), the biological labora-21
tory (SS4 and 505Q), the Golomb House (11S2), the transmission line at site 15 (15S4), the transmission line east of route 11 (981), the Mocanagua Substation (102), near Pond Hill (3D1), the Berwick Hospital (12E1), the Hazelton Chem Lab (7G1), at Blooms-burg (12G1) and the PP&L roof in Allentown (7HI). Station 7G1 began operation in March. Station 15S4 began operation in May. Air filters were analyzed weekly for gross beta and quarterly for gamma emitters, gross alpha and strontium-89 and -90. Air iodine was collected on charcoal cartridges in series with the air particulate filter at all stations. Stations 102, 3D1, 7G1 and 12G1 began sampling for air iodine in March while station 15S4 began operation in May. The charcoal cartridges have an efficiency of removal of elemental iodine of 99%. Precipitation samples were collected monthly from stations SS4,11S2,1D2 and 12G1 and analyzed for tritium and gamma emitters. Beginning in April, precipitation samples were composited and analyzed quarterly.
- Air Particulates (Tables C-13, C-14 and C-15)
The gross beta concentrations of each sgmple was detemined weekly. These con-centrations ranged from 0.004 to 0.384 pCi/m in all samples. The wide range can be attributed to the fallout througiiout the year from the atmospheric nuclear weapon test by the People's Republic of China on October 16, 1980. By October 1981, gross beta levels had returned to pre October 1980 nuclear test levels. The annual average for all indicator stations was 0.097 pCi/ cubic meter and for all control stations was 0.094 pCi/ cubic meter. Figure 2 shows graphically the gross beta activity in air par-ticulates for 1981. Quarterly composites of air particulate filters from each location were analyzed by gamma spectrometry. Beryllium-7 was detected in forty-six of forty-seven samples. The presence of beryllium-7 throughout the year can be attributed to cosmic ray acti-vity. Cesium-137 was observed in nineteen of forty-seven samples. Manganese-54, niobium-95, zirconium-95, ruthenium-103, cerium-141 and cerium-144 were observed in samples from the first, second and third quarters. These may be attributed to the atmospheric nuclear weapon test by the People's Republic of China on October 16, 1980. Gross alpha analyses of quarterly composites showed positive resu of forty-seven samgles with values ranging from 0.0012 toaverage with the 0.0049 being 0.0026 pCi/m The strontium-89 analyses perfomed on the quarterly composites showed thirty-two of forty-seven samples with detectable activity. These ranged from 0.0005 to 0.0096 pCi/md . The positive strontium-89 results were primarily observed in the first, second and third quarters and can be attributed to the October 316, 1980 nuclear test. The MDLs forstrontium-89rangedbetween0.0003gnd0.0008pCi/m. Strontium-90 concentrations ranged between <0.0001 and 0.0017 pCi/m with the average being 0.0008 pCi/m3, Air Iodine (Table C-16) Of the 578 air samples analyzed for iodine-131, all were gelow the LLD. The de-tection limit for all analyses ranged from 0.003 to 0.07 pCi/m . Prccipitation(TableC-17) Eight of eighteen sanples showed positive tritium results, ranging from 127 to 267 pCi/1. All others were less than LLD (219 pCi/1). Beryllium-7, from cosmic radi-ation, was observed in seventeen samples ranging from 10 to 56 pCi/1. Zi rconium-95, 22
niobium-95, rutk.ilum-103, ruthenium-106, cesium-137, cerium-141 and cerium-144 were observed especially during the first and second quarters. This was consistent.with results observed in air particulates. The occurrence of these nuclides can be attri-buted to the atmospheric nuclear weapons test by the People's Republic of China in October 1980. Ingestion Pathway 4 Potential ingestion pathways of exposure for Susquehanna SES were evaluated by analyzing samples of milk, fish, food products, meat, game, pasture grass and soil. Milk (Tables C-18, C-19 and C-20) Cow milk samples were collected monthly from eight locations; 1282, 12B3, 6C1, 10D1,12D2, SEl,13E3 and 10G1. Samples were collected semi-monthly from April to September from stations 1282, SEl,13E3 and 10G1. Each monthly sample was analyzed for I-131, Sr-89 and -90 and gamma emitters. The additional samples were analyzed for iodine-131 and gamma emitters only. All of the 120 samples analyzed for iodine-131 were below the LLD. The LLDs ranged from 0.07 to 0.2 pCi/1. Potassium-40, as determined by gama spectrometry, was found in all milk samples with levels ranging from 1200 to 1700 pCi/1. Cesium-137 was found in 138 of 144 sam-ples with levels ranging from 1.2 to 9.6 pCi/1. Strontium-89 was detected in seventeen of ninety-six samples analyzed with results ranging between 1.3 and 5.3 pCi/1. The range of MDI. values for strontium-89 was 1.4 to 83 pCi/1. The wide range of values for the MDL was due to low chemical yields in i some of the samples and delays between sample collection and analysis which causes a large decay correction factor. The concentration of strontium-90 was positive in ! ninety-five of ninety-six samples analyzed and averaged 5.6 pCi/1. Due to the twenty-eight year half-life and biological assimilation, strontium-90 can be expected to re-main long after routine atmospheric testing has ceased. All strontium-89 and -90 analysis chemical yields have been verified by atomic absorption to determine calcium interference. Goat milk was sampled at two locations quarterly, or more frequently if sufficient milk was available. Goat milk was analyzed for iodine-131 only. Of the thirteen sam-ples analyzed, all were below the LLD. LLDs ranged from 0.1 to 1.8 pCi/1. The high LLDs observed for iodine-131 in goat milk are due to the small quantities which are available for analysis. Fish (Table C-21) Fish was collected from two locations. Three to seven fish of each species, enough to obtain one to two kilograms of filets, were collected at each location. The species
- included were
- walleye, white sucker and channel catfish. Analysis of the flesh for gamma emitters and strontium-89 -90 was performed on each species sampled.
Gamma spectrometry was performed on the flesh portions of fish samples. Naturally-occurring potassium-40 was detected in all twelve samples with results ranging from 3.1 to 3.7 pCi/g(wet). Cesium-137 was detected in eleven samples ranging from 0.009 to 4 23
0.016 pCi/g(wet). These results were consistent with those previously found. Since the station is not in operation, and there are no other nuclear power installations in the area, the man-made nuclide observed can probably be attributed to nuclear w::apons testing fallout. Strontium-89 was below the MDL (0.01 pCi/g(wet)) in all twelve samples. Stron-tium-90 was observed in three samples ranging from 0.002 to 0.007 pCi/g(wet). MDLs ranged from 0.003 to 0.006 pCi/g(wet). FoodProducts(TableC-22) Gamma spectrometry was used to analyze various types of food products collected from local farmers within the vicinity of Susquehanna SES. These include apples, honey, com, cabbage, cantalopes, potatoes, squash, strawberry plant and tomatoes. Naturally-occurring potassium-40 at levels of 0.72 to 10 pCi/g(wet) was found in all samples. Beryllium-7, from cosmic ray activity, was observed in the strawberry plant sample. Niobium-95 and cesium-137 were found in three samples which was not unexpected when compared with other fallout data observed in 1981. Meat (Table C-23) Meat samples consisting of eggs, chicken and duck were collected from two local farms. The flesh was analyzed for gamma emitters. Naturally-occurring potassium-40 was detected in all three samples, 0.9 to 2.9 pCi/ gram (wet). All other gamma emitters were below the LLD. Game (Table C-24) One deer sample and one squirrel sample were collected in the winter and the flesh was analyzed for gamma emitters. Naturally-occurring potassium-40 was found at levels of 2.5 and 2.7 pCi/g(wet), respectively. Cesium-137 was also found at a concentration of 0.10 and 1.5 pCi/g(wet), mspectively. These results were consistent with cesium-137 concentrations found in game samples (especially squirrels) analyzed in previous years (7). All other nuclides searched for were less than the LLD. Vegetation (Table C-25) Two leafy vegetation samples were collected on site and analyzed by gamma spectro-metry. Potassium-40 was found in both samples at concentrations of 7.9 and 8.1 pCi/g (wet). Beryllium-7, from cosmic ray activity, was found in one sample at similar levels to those found in pasture grass. Zirconium-95, niobium-95 and c' ium-144 were found in the samples and can be attributed to fallout from the atmosphce e nuclear weapons test on October 16, 1980. Pasture Grass (Table C-26) i Pasture grass was collected monthly at the closest farm. Pasture grass samples from station 7C1 and station 8D1 were collected when the goat milk was unavailable. Each sample was analyzed by gamma spectrometry. Potassium-40 was found in all twelve samples and ranged from 3.7 to 26 pCi/g(wet). Beryllium-7 was observed in seven of twelve samples with results ranging from 3.1 to 12 pCi/g(wet). The presence of beryl-lium-7 can be attributed to cosmic radiation. Niobium-95, zirconium-95, ruthenium-103, cesium-137, cerium-141 and cerium-144 were observed throughout the year and are consis-tent with levels observed in food products and vegetation. These nuclides can be 24
u t attributed to the atmospheric nuclear weapons test by the Peoples Republic of China on October 16, 1930. These nuclides are typically found in fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons tests (4-12). Soil (Table C-27) Soil was collected at fourteen locations. A topsoil sample and a subsoil sample was collected at each location. Each sample was analyzed for gamma emitters. Naturally-occurring potassium-40 was observed in all twenty-eight samples ranging from 7.9 to 10 pCi/g(dry). Radium-226 and thorium-232, also naturally-occurring, were observed in all samples. These levels ranged from 0.49 to 2.7 pCi/g(dry) and from 0.55 to 2.9 pCi/g(dry), respectively. Niobium-95 was observed in twenty-one of twenty-eight samples with results ranging from 0.08 to 0.35 pCi/g(dry). Cesium-137 was observed in all samples and ranged from 0.17 to 2.2 pCi/g(dry). Niobium-95 and cesium-137 are typically observed in fallout from atmospheric nuclear weapons tests. The observance of niobiuar95 can be attributed to the most recent test by the Peoples Republic of China in October 1980. Direct Radiation (Table C-28) Direct radiation measurements were made on a quarterly basis. TLD packets were placed at 68 locations on and surrounding the Susquehanna SES. During 1981, 264 c uar-terly TLD packets were collected. Each packet included four dosimeters for a total of 1056 analyses. All TLD results presented in this report have been normalized to a standard month (30.4 days) to eliminate the apparent differences in data caused by variations in length of exposure period. The range of TLD results for indicator locations was 4.40 to 12.63 mrad / standard month and 4.44 to 7.16 mrad / standard month for control locations. Eleva-ted levels at locations 6S4 and 7S3 were due to on-site radiographic activity. The TLD analyses yielded an average dose equivalent rate of 6.31 mrad / standard month at all indicator locations, and an average dose equivalent rate of 5.98 mrad / standard month at all control locations. The projected annual dose from direct radiation computed from these results is 76 mrads, or 76 mrem assuming a quality factor of 1, at indicator locations, and 72 mrad or 72 mrem at the control locations. The EPA terrestrial and cosmic radiation dose rate calculated for the Wilkes-Barre area is 82 mrem / year, neglecting any neutron contribu-tion (18). This compares favorably with the average TLD measured dose rate of 75 mrem / year for all stations. This difference is not unexpected since the EPA values are gross general averages for an area and do not take into consideration specific terrestrial variations. The average dose rates for all monitoring locations since 1973 are plotted in Figure 3. The differences observed between locations or between sampling periods were similar to those found previously (4-12). 25
CONCLUSIONS I l r
CONCLUSIONS The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program for Susquehanna SES was con-ducted during 1981 as a continuation of the program initiated in 1972. The data col-lected during 1981 further develops a baseline for comparison with future operational data. The purpose for the design and development of the Susquehanna SES REMP were:
- 1. To establish baseline radiological characteristics of the environs '
of Susquehanna SES for comparison with future data;
- 2. To assure that the media sampled and analyzed are sensitive to fluc-tuations in the radiological characteristics of the Susquehanna SES l environs; and to assure that the program will be responsive to station -
radioeffluent discharge;
- 3. To monitor potential critical pathways of station radioeffluent to man.
The 1981 REMP further establishes the baseline radiological characteristics for the vicinity of the Susquehanna SES. This is evident by the continuation of sampling. and analysis for the aquatic, atmospheric and terrestrial environments, as well as mon-itoring of direct radiation. The sampling and analysis of these media reflect the nor-mal background radiation found in this environment. l The media sampled by the Susquehanna REMP are sensitive to radiological fluctua-tions of the environment monitored. This is evident by the measured gradual decline in the surface water concentration of tritium, primarily due to the decrease in atmos-pheric nuclear detonations. Gross beta and gamma spectrometry analyses of air parti-culates are sensitive to atmospheric testing of nuclear weapons. Gamma analyses of surface water, sediment, air,~ food products, vegetation, pasture grass and so:1 samples showed low concentrations of radioactive nuclides from fallout from the October 16, 1980 abnospheric nuclear weapons test by the People's Republic of China. Iodine-131 was ob-served in surface water samples throughout the year. Since Susquehanna SES is not in operation, iodine-131 can be attributed to other sources of contamination of the river. These two instances indicate that the Susquehanna SES REMP is sensitive to radiological fluctuations of the environment. f Environmental ganna radiation measurements were made using thermoluminescent dosi-i meters. Results from the indicator and control locations were found not to be signi- ! ficantly different as would be expected in the absence of any source af gamma radiation. The media sampled by the Susquehanna REMP also monitors potential critical pathways of station radioeffluent to man. Monitoring of the waterborne pathway consisted of sampling surface water, well 4 water, potable water and sediment. These sample types were chosen to reflect the characteristics of normal background radiation for this medium. The airborne pathway was monitored by filtering and analyzing the particulate matter, by passing filtered air through a charcoal filter which was analyzed for the presence of iodine-131 and by analysis of precipitation. The ingestion pathway was monitored by the sampling and analysis of milk, fish, game, various food products, vegetation, pasture grass 29
and soil. The results obtained by analysis of these samples were consistent with previously measured levels of radioactivity in their respective media (4-12). The results obtained from analyses performed on the samples collected in the vicin-ity of the Susquehanna SES were expected for this environment. The levels and fluctua-tions of radioactivity detected are consistent with previously accumulated REl4P data (4-12). 30

No detectable measurements were found. (1) The LIDS quoted are the lowest actual LLD obtained in th.e various media during the reporting period. A typical gamma LLD was determined for each searched for nuclide as found in Table C-29. Where all nuclides were <LLD for a specific media, no LLD was listed. Strontium-89 and -90 are reported as Linimum detectable levels (!Ols) rather than LLDs. (2) Mean and range are based upon detectable measurements only. Fraction of detectable measurements is indicated in parentheses. The mean (i) is defined as follows: X= X I i=1 Where: X 9
= the activity of an individual measurement (1) n n =

I l APPENDIX B SAMPLE DESIGNATION l i
APPENDIX B Table B-1 lists the sampling locations and includes both the distance and direc-tion from the Susquehanna SES and the media sampled at each location. Maps B-1 and B-2 show the sampling locations with respect' to the Susquehanna SES. Sample Designation Samples are identified-by a Ethree part code. The first two letters are the power station identification code, in this case "SS" for Susquehanna Steam Electric Station. The next three letters are for the media sampled. AIO = Air Iodine GAD = . Game, Deer AQF = Fish GAS = Gane, Squirrel AQS = Sedinent GMK = Goat Milk APT = Air Particulates IDM = Innersion Dose (TLD) EWA = Effluent Water MLK = Milk FPB = Food Products, Beef PAS = Pasture Grass FPE = Food Products, Eggs PWT = Potable Water, Treated FPF = Food Products, Fruit RWA = Precipitation FPG = Food Products, Grain SWA = Surface Water FPH = Food Products, Hor.ey_ WWA = Well Water FPL = Food Products, Leafy Vegetables VGT = Vegetation FPP = Food Prod.: cts, Poultry S0L = Soil FPV = Food Products, Vegetables The last four symbols are a location code based on direction and distance from the site. Of these, the first two represent each of the 16 angular sectors of 22-1/2 degrees centered about the reactor site. Sector one is divided evenly by the north axis and other sectors are numbered in a clockwise direction; i.e., 2=NNE, 3=NE, 4=ENE, etc. The next digit is a letter which represents the radial distance from the station: S = Site (I) location E = 4-5 miles off-site A = 0-1 miles off-site F = 5-10 miles off-site B = 1-2 miles off-site G = 10-20 miles off-site 1 C = 2-3 miles off-site H = >20 miles off-site D = 3-4 miles off-site The last number is the station numerical designation within each sector and zone; e.g., 1, 2, 2, . . . . f
- 1. Site is defined as that area within PP&L's property boundary.

A 250 ml aliquot is evaporated to dryness and transferred to a preweighed, 2" x 1/4" ringed planchet and reweighed. The planchet is then counted in a low background gas-flow proportional counter. Seif-absorption corrections are made based on the measured residue weight and calculated thickness. The calibration standard used is Pu-239.. A 250 mi sample of distilled water is evaporated in the same manner and used as a blank. Sediment (A9) A 200 mg portion of finely divided sedimer;t is . slurried with water, transferred to a planchet and dried. The sample is counted in a low background, gas-flow propor-tional counter. Self absorption corrections are made on the basis of the weight of material counted. An empty planchet is prepared with water and used as a blank. Air Particulates (AE) A 20% aliquot of the leached sample is evaporated to dryness on a preweighed, 2" x 1/4", ringed, stainless steel planchet and the planchet is reweighed.

ENVIRONENTAL D0SIMETRY (D1) By RMC definition, a thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) is considered one end of a capillary tube containing calcium sulfate (Tm) powder as the thermolumi-nescent material. This material was chosen for its characteristic high light output, minimal thermally induced signal loss (fading), and negligible self-dosing. The energy response curve has been flattened by a conplex multiple element energy compensator shield supplied by Panasonic Corporation, manufac-turer of the TLD reader. There exists four dosimeters per station sealed in a polyethylene bag to demonstrate : integrity at the time of measurement, and for visualization of the sample placenent instructions. The zero dose is determined from TLDs located in the lead shield found at RMC, Philadelphia. Following the predesignated exposure period the TLDs are placed in the TLD reader. The reader heats the calcium sulfate (Tm) and the measured light emission (luminescence) is used to calculate the environmental radiation - exposum. Data are normalized to standard machine conditions by correcting machine settings to designated values before readout. Data am also corrected for in-transit dose using a set of TLDs kept in a lead shield in the field, enposed only during transit.

AllALYSIS OF SAIFLES FOR TRITIUM Water (H2) A 15 ml aliquot of the sample is vacuum distilled to eliminate dissolved gasses and non-volatile matter. The distillate is frozen in a trap cooled with a dry ice-isopropanol mixture. Eight (8) ml of the distillate are mixed with ten (10) ml of Insta-Gel liquid scintillation solution. The sample is then counted for tritium in a liquid scintillation counter. A sample of low tritium (< 50 pCi/l) water is vacuum distilled as a blank and is counted with each batch of samples. In the calculation of the result it is assumed that the condensated and original sanple are of equivalent volumes. The volume change associated with the removal of dissolved gases and non-volatile matter is not significant compared to the other errors in the analysis.

AllALYSIS OF SAliPLES FOR 10DillE-131 tiilk or Water (10) The initial stable iodide concentration in milk is determined with an iodide ion specific electrode. Thirty milligrams of stable iodide carrier is then added to four (4) liters of milk. The iodide is removed from the milk by passage through ion-exchange resin. The iodide is eluted from the resin with sodium hypochlorite, and purified by a series of solvent extractions with the final extraction into a toluene phase. The toluene phase is mixed with a toluene-based liquid scintillation solution. The sample is then counted in a beta-gated gamma coincidence detector, shielded by six inches of steel. Distilled water is used as a blank. The yield is calculated from stable iodide recovery based on the recovered volume. Results are corrected for decay from the sampling time to the middle of the counting period, using a half-life value for I-131 of 8.06 days. The data are obtained by smoothing the spectrum to minimize random statisti-cal fluctuations. Iodine-131 is identified by changes in the slopa of the gross spectrum, and noting the net area, in counts, above the baseline pro-hetion. The calculations of the results, the two sigma error and the lower limit of detection (LLD) for iodine-131 are then expressed in activity (pCi) per unit volume (liter).

ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FOR STROUTIUM-89 AND -90 Total Water (SD, TO) A two liter aliquot of sample is used. Stable strontium carrier is added to the liquid to facilitate chemical separation of Sr-89 and -90, and to determine the strontium recovery. Strontium concentration and purification is ultimately realized by at least two precipitations of strontium nitrate in concentrated nitric acid. Additional iron / rare earth hydroxide precyitations and barium chromate separations are performed to remove suspected interfering nuclides. The purified strontium is converted to a carbonate for weighing and counting. Soon after the separation, the sample is counted in a low-background gas-flow proportional counter.

Dairy Animal Survey In August 1981, a dairy animal survey was performed in the vicinity of the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station. The information, pertaining to the location of the nearest dairy animal (within 5 miles) is listed in Table F-1. Since there are no changes in the location of the nearest dairy animal, no change in the REMP is necessary. Vegetable Garden Survey The location of the nearest vegetable garden over 50 square meters in each sector is listed in Table F-2. In addition, broad leaf vegetation was collected from gardens in the sectors with the two highest D/Q and analyzed for iodine-131. This data appears in Table C-25. Residence The location of the nearest resiom..ee in each sector is listed in Table F-3. 139
