l RIVER BEND STATION RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT FOR 1995 Abstract During 1995, radiological environmental monitoring and a land use census were conducted in the vicinity of River Bend Station (RBS). As part of the monitoring program, the RBS Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) laboratory participated in an interlaboratory comparison program with 97.0 percent of analytical results within control limits. The land use census revealed 4 salient changes in receptor locations since 1994. Twenty-three monitoring exceptions, involving Technical Specifications / Technical Requirements Manual (TRM) required samples, occurred out of a total effort of 1,274 samples collected and 1,382 subsequent analyses performed. None of the exceptions had significant impact on program quality. Although well below the required detection limits, slightly elevated (relative to baseline data) levels of Cesium-137 were sporadically measured in both indicator and control I media; these concentrations were presumably attributable to the 1$86 incident at Chemobyl, Russia.

The only measurable increases in radionuclide activity, or levels of radiation above baseline levels in the vicinity of RBS during 1995, which are attributed to plant operation, are the expected low levels in the liquid discharge line. The levels of activity measured in the liquid discharge were slightly above required levels of detection, but well below Technical Specification /TRM reporting levels. The 1995 Fsadiological Environmental Monitoring Program thus substantiated the adequacy of source control and effluent monitoring at River Bend Station.

RIVER BEND STATION RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT FOR 1995

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report for the period of January 1 through December 31,1995, is submitted in accordance with Technical Requirements Manual (TR 5.6.2) as required by Technical Specification (5.6.2) of Appendix A to River Bend Station License Number NPF-47.

River Bend Station (RBS) is a 936 MWe General Electric boiling water reactor located in West Feliciana Parish, Louisiana,4.1 km southeast of St. Francisville (Figure 1). Waste heat from RBS is dissipated via a system using five m:chanical draft cooling towers which draw makeup water from the Mississippi River,3.3 (air) km to the west. Blowdown from the cooling tower system dilutes low-level liquid radioactive waste and is discharged to the Mississippi River through a 4.4-km buried pipe located downstream of the intake structure (Fig. 2). Gaseous radioactive effluents are released through the main plant exhaust duct, the fuel building exhaust duct, and the radwaste building exhaust duct.

Th3 area within a 16-km radius of RBS includes substantial portions of West Feliciana, East Feliciana, and Pointe Coupee parishes, as well as small portions of East and West Baton Rouge parishes. Most of the land in this area is dsvoted, in about equal proportions, to forests and agriculture (pasture, various crops). Wetlands, streams / lakes, and urban / improved lands comprise the remainder of the immediate vicinity of the plant. Besides St. Francisville, (4.1 km northwest), human population centers near RBS are New Roads (10 km southwest) and Jackson (12 km northeast).

Industrial facilities in the immediate vicinity of RBS are Crown Vantage Paper Plant (5 km south); Big Cajun No. 2 Power Station (5 km southwest); and the Corps of Engineers concrete casting yard (5 km west).

The area within an 80-km radius of RBS contains all or portions of 19 Louisiana parishes and five Mississippi counties.

This area has generally the same makeup as that of the immediate vicinity of RBS, although wetlands, agricultural lands, and urban / improved lands are relatively more extensive (at the expense of forested lands) in the southwestem and southeastem quadrants. Baton Rouge, centered at about 38 km southeast, is the only large city in the general vicinity of RBS.

During 1995, radiological environmental monitoring in the vicinity of RBS was performed by the River Bend Station Environmental Services Group, a part of the plant Chemistry Department, with support from the plant Radiation Control Department in maintaining / calibrating air samplers and in reading / annealing thermoluminescence dosimeters.

2.0 RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM (REMP) 2.1 Purpose / Bases Th3 Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) was established to provide representative measurements .

of radiation and of radioactive materials, resulting from RBS operation, in those exposure pathways and for those l radionuclides that lead to the highest potential exposures of members of the public.

RIVER BEND STATION RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPEPATING REPORT FOR 1995 The REMP implementsSection IV.B.2 of Appendix l of 10CFR50 and thereby supplements the radioactive effluent monitoring program by verifying that the measurable concentrations of radioactive materials and levels of radiation are not higher than expected on the basis of the effluent measurements and the modeling of the environmental exposure i pathways.

The REMP applies the concepts of indicator vs. control and preoperational vs. operational intercomparisons to verify the adequacy of source controls and resultant human radiation doses. In addition to 10CFR50, Appendix 1, the program is based on guidance provided in the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's Radiological Branch Technical Position, Revision 1, November 1979, as well as NRC Regulatory Guides 4.1 and 4.15.

2.2 Environmental Radiation Exposure Pathways Elements of the REMP monitor indications of the impacts of gaseous (airborne) and liquid effluents released from River Bend Station. The specific methods used in monitoring the pathways by which these effluents could lead to human exposure, based on existing demographic information, are:

l HUMAN EXPOSURE PATHWAYS -

(A) Airborne Pathway Monitorina Media Inhalation Dose (intemal) Air Samples (Particulates and Radioiodines)

Ground Plane Dose (extemal) Thermoluminescence Dosimetry (TLD)

Immersion Dose (external) Thermoluminescence Dosimetry (TLD)

Ingestion Dose (intemal) Vegetation / Food Crop Samples (B) Direct Exposure Pathway Monitorina Media l

External Dose Thermoluminescence Dosimetry (TLD)

)

(C) Waterborne Pathway Monitorina Media ingestion Dose (intemal) Surface Water Samples Groundwater Samples Drinking Water Samples i Fish / Invertebrate Samples l Shoreline Sediment Samples immersion Dose (external) Surface Water Samples Shoreline Sediment Samples Site-related dispersion characteristics, demography, hydrology, land use, anticipated source terms, and the exposure pathways outlined above were considered in the selection of the sample media, sampling and analysis frequencies, sam-pling/ measurement locations, and types of analyses. These criteria were used to establish both the preoperational and operational phases of the REMP.

4

RIVER BEND STATION RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT FOR 1995 The program that evolved during the preoperational (baseline) monitoring phase incorporates all of the elements in the RBS Technical Specifications (3/4.12.1, 3/4.12.2, 3/4.12.3) plus special study criteria, and is illustrated in Table 1 and Figures 1 and 2.

2.3 Land Use Census for 1995 The annual land use census, which implementsSection IV.B.3 of Appendix l of 10CFR50, was conducted during the 1995 growing season in accordance with RBS Technical Specification 3/4.12.2 and/or Technical Requirements Manual (TR 3.12.2). Table 2 summarizes the results and notes changes in nearest receptor locations within 8 km from those id:ntified in the Radiological Environmental Operating Report for 1994.

The 1995 census identified residences within 8 km of the RBS reactor containment in all sectors except L (SW) and M (WSW). The nearest resident in sector Q (NNW) was 1.4 km, compared to 1.3 km in 1994. The gardens identified in sectors P (WNW) and Q (NW) are the onsite gardens established near sectors with the highest calculated annual average ground level D/Q. These gardens are REMP Indicator locations for broadleaf vegetation (Table 1, Fig. 2). No receptor garden was found in sector E (E) compared to a garden at 2.2 km in the 1994 census. A farther resident was located in sector F (ESE) at 3.5 km, compared to 3.4 km in the 1994 census. No gardens were located in sectors L (SW), M (WSW), and N (W) during the 1995 census.

No dairy animals were found within 8 km of RBS during the 1995 census. Historically, there have never been enough dairy sites to accommodate the minimum RBS Technical Specification requirements for analysis of milk, so monitoring of broadleaf vegetation has been performed from the outset.

River Bend began a survey of meat animals within the 8 km radius of RBS during the 1990 census. This initial survey id:ntified beef herds in all sectors except L (SW). During the 1991 census, meat animals were located in sector L (SW) at 4.6 km. There were no meat animals found in sector R (NNW) during the 1995 census, compared to animals at 3.0 km in the 1994 census. The meat animal survey will be discontinued in 1996, due to program reductions of non-required )

activities.

]

2.4 Interlaboratory Comparison Procram Results for 1995 The RBS REMP Laboratory participated in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Performance Evaluation I Study Program during 1995 in accordance with RBS Technical Specification 3/4.12.3 and/or Technical Requirements Manual (TR 3.12.3). RBS results (Table 3) were within the control limits for the normalized range (precision) for all j analyses, and within the USEPA "known" value (accuracy) for all but one analysis. The discrepancy for this analysis is i discussed below. The USEPA discontinued the cross-check media for " food" in 1989, and although milk sampling and i analysis is not required of RBS at this time, the results for the cross-check media for " milk" are included as a gauge for I the " food" sample analyses (i.e., vegetation and fish) performed by RBS.

2.5 Proaram Exceptions h

Certain samples and analyses were inadvertently omitted or unavoidably altered during the 1995 operating period, out of a total effort of 1,274 samples collected and 1,382 subsequent analyses performed. These exceptions and the reasons for the omissions / alterations are delineated in Table 4 in accordance with Technical Specification requirements.

Corrective actions and impacts on program quality are discussed starting on page 12. .

NOTES:

(1) Foi purposes of data summary, comparisons, and discussion, the sampling locations designated as "Specini Interest" are treated as indicator stations if they are within 16 km of RBS and control stations if they are beyond 16 km.

(2) Sample / measurement location not required by RBS Technical Specifications (not identified in ODCM).

(3) Sampling and/or analysis frequency greater than required by RBS Technical Specifications and ODCM.

(4) The upstream (control) sample is taken at a distance beyond influence of the plant discharge. The downstream (indicator) sample is taken in an area beyond but near the mixing zone.

(5) Gross beta analysis not required by RBS Technical Specifications and ODCM.

(6) Drinking water sampling / analyses not required by RBS Technical Specifications and ODCM. (No drinking water pathway exists due to extreme distance to nearest intake). The upstream surface water sampling location (SWU) is used as a " control" for drinking water analyses comparisons.

(7) Preferred species are river shrimp (Macrobracium ohione), blue catfish (letalurus furcatus), and freshwater drum (Aolodinotus orunniens); if these are unavailable, other edible species may be substituted.

(8) No irrigation pathway exists due to the extreme distance of nearest domestic water intake (see Note 6); leafy vegetables are sampled and analyzed because of limited availability of milk samples.

. RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT FOR 1995 1
Air Particulates and Radiciodines Twenty-three program exceptions, with loss of sample / sample volume, occurred involving air particulate and radiciodine sampling. Fifteen of these involved non-technical specification /reauirement locations. All were caused by power outages due to weather, or equipment / electrical malfunctions on the feeder line. The program exceptions, involving technical specification locations, were a result of equipment problems / failures, and power outages of unknown reasons, which may have been weather related. In spite of the numerous power failures, samples were collected and analyzed from all locations with adequate volumes to achieve all required detection limits, except for locations AB1 (7/18 - 8/8, 9/19 -

10/24); AKS (3/22 - 3/27, 7/18 - 8/8); and AHS (3/ 7 - 3/15). All preceding air sarr.ple locations are not required by RBS Technical Specifications /TRM. These three locations will be discontinued in 1996, due to program reductions of non-

technical specification / requirement activities.  ;
1 1 RBS is currently using methods for determining more precisely when, during the week-long sample period, power

] outages or equipment failures occur so that comparison with wind direction joint frequencies will document the extent to 4

which required sampling was achieved. Plotters are used at sampling locations to plot actual hours of power outages as

]

they occur.

l Air sample location AP1 (WNW,0.9km) was reported to have a higher-than-normal gross beta activity for the week of 5/16/95 to 5/23/95. Even though this activity was less than ten times the yearly control sample mean for the previous l year (as required by the TRM); it was analyzed by gamma isotopic, and peaks of Co-60 and Mn-54 were quantified. The l second quarter AP1 filter composite gamma analysis quantified Mn-54 at 0.005 pCi/m^3, and Co-60 at 0.013 pCl/m^3. ,

The third quarter AP1 filter composite analysis quantified Co-60 at 0.018 pCi/m^3. Fourth quarter AP1 filter composite j quantified only natural nuclides. Indiv! dual AP1 weekly filters analyzed from 10/24/95 revealed only background i radiation. Comparison of the second and third quarter results against the RBS 1.21 report for 1995 show a positive agreement between the isotopes in question. Examination of the dose at 994m for the child thyroid (critical organ) indicated there was no increase in this parameter due to the Co-60 and Mn-54. As this is the limiting factor, there was thus no negative environmental impact as a result of these isotopes.

Direct Radiation (TLD)

Data for the first quarter at locations TK2 and TN1; second quarter at location TN2; and fourth quarter at locations TJ2, TL2, and TP2 was lost due to vandalism. The loss of TLD badges is a common occurrence when deploying TLD's in 44 locations over five parishes.

Water Samole DischarDe line weekly composite samples for the month of May were not flow-weighted the entire month due to problems experienced with the flow meter on the discharge line. The composite sampler was used in the time mode instead of flow mode for part of the monthly collection. Discharge line samples analyzed during the months of May and June failed to achieve the detection limit for lodine-131 due to a software problem that failed to count the sample to the pre-set MDA level as programmed. This problem has been addressed by a revision to the software that should correct the recurring problem. The two discharge line samples with detection limits and actual achieved MDA's are shown below.

NOTES:

Each isotope measured by ESI was 14-33% higher than values reported by the U.S. EPA. When EPA published the results on 2/14/95, the ESI cross-check sample had been disposed of. Because the EPA sample was inadvertently disposed, no follow-up action could be taken on that partmular sample. Since all measurements made by ESI were higher than the EPA values, it 6ppears that a dilution error when preparin0 the sample was the cause of the discrepancy between ESI values and the EPA values. A new liquid standard was purchased from Analytics, Inc. In March 1995 and new efficiency curves were calculated using a 3.5 Marinelli Geometry. There were no c.ppreciatrve differences between the efficiency curves calculated before and after the Nov. 4.1994 cross-check was analyzed. A 3.5L resin standard prepared by Analytics, Inc. was anatyred, resulting in efficiency curves which were approxirnately 90 percent as efficient as deionized water. The results are theoretically in agreement since the Analytics, Inc, resin standard has a density of 1.15 kO /L No data from gamma spectroscopy would be affected by this apparent dilution error.

RIVER BEND STATION o RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REFORT FOR 1995 Veaetation Samoles A control vegetation sample collected during the month of October was analyzed and failed to achieve the detection limit for lodine-131. The LLD for 1-131 is 60.0 pCi/kg; while the actual MDA achieved was 89.3 pCl/kg. This is thought to be caused by the same software problem that was experienced with the discharge line samples. The revision to the gamma software should correct this problem. Due to the inclement weather experienced during December, the vegetation sample collections were inadequate in the site indicator gardens during December.

1 USEPA Cross-check The RBS results of the EPA Performance Evaluation Study for gross beta-in-water of 4/18/95 were outside the control

limits of the study. RBS reported results averaging 41.0 pCl/1, while the control limits were 69.3 to 103.9 pCi/l, with a j known value of 86.6 pCl/l. Instrument quality control data and worksheet calculations were reviewed with no indication of j a problem. Four other beta-In-water studies were prepared and analyzed during 1995 with all results within the control j limits for the respective studies. The reason for the low results is thought to be caused from the loss of sample during the later stages of sample preparation.
3.0 INTERPRETATION OF REMP RESULTS 1

1

! 3.1 Summarv of Operational REMP Results 3

Monitoring results for the exposure pathways are itemized in Appendix A and summarized in Table 5, from which

' measured activities of the naturally-occurring daughters cf uranium and thorium are excluded. For purposes of data i summary, comparison, and discussion, the sampling losions designated "Special Interest" in Table 1 are treated as

indicator stations if they are within 16 km of RBS and control stations if they are beyond 16 km.

3 3.1.1 Airborne Exposure Pathway - Measurements of radiciodine and other gamma-emitters were all below their respective LLDs -- that is. " undetectable" at the required analytical sensitivities. Noble gases (Kr-87, Xe-133, Xe-135) a were detected in air samples throughout the year. Gross beta activities averaged 0.021 pCi/m' at indicator locations and

! 0.022 pCl/m at controllocations.

i j 3.1.2 Direct Exposure Pathway - Quarterly exposures averaged 12.7 mR total at indicator locations and 13.1 mR ,

, total at control locations.

l 3.1.3 Waterbome Exposure Pathway - No gamma-emitters were measured in surface water or in drinking water at j levels approaching the Technical Specification LLDs. The gamma emitters Mn-54, Co-58, Fe-59, Co-60, Cr-51, La-140, Nb-95, Cs-137, and 1-131 were measured in monthly composite samples from the CWS discharge line at concentrations )

between 1.53 and 276 pCi/l. Gross beta activities in surface water averaged 42.5 pCi/l in the discharge line and from 2.42 to 3.07 pCl/l at all other locations. Tritium (H-3) activities in surface water averaged 3873 pCi/l in the discharge line and were below detection limits at all other locations. Gross beta activities averaged 1.80 pCi/l in the downgradient WD (indicator), and 3.90 pCi/l in upgradient WU (control) groundwater. Only naturally-occurring gamma-emitter, K-40, was i measured in Mississippi River shoreline up-stream and down-stream sediments. 1 3.1.4 Inaestion Exposure Pathway - Specific activities for radiciodine were below the required LLD in the ingestion pathway monitoring media during 1995. Only naturally-occurring gamma-emitters was measured in fish. Cs-137 was measured twice in control vegetation samples, and once in an indicator sample; but these levels were well below LLD levels.

. RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT FOR 1995 3.2 Comparison of Operational and Baseline REMP Results Radioiodine and other gamma-emitters in the airbome exposure pathway were not measured at levels above the required LLDs during 1995. Gross beta activities on air particulate filters averaged 0.021 pCl/m at indicator and 0.022 pCi/m' at control locations in 1995, compared to 0.03 pCl/m at both indicator and control locations during the preoperational phase of the REMP (Appendix B).

In the direct exposure pathway, the 1995 net average readings for quarterly TLDs from both indicator and control locations were slightly lower than the corresponding values for the baseline period. Thus far, no appreciable differences have been observed in TLD exposures between indicator and control locations or between the same locations from one year to the next.

In the waterbome exposure pathway, average activities analyzed for required gamma-emitting nuclides were measured below the RBS Technical Specification LLDs during 1995 as had been the case during the preoperational phase (Appendix B). Gross beta and tritium levels in water are compared below:

The same observation can be made from 1994 to 1995 levels. As observed in previous years, the annual average gross beta activity for the control location (SWU) averaged the same as that for the indicator location (SWD). The gross beta activity levels in the discharge line (DL), during years with no refueling outages, seemingly reflect the normal cycles of concentration at which the station cooling towers are operated.

22

RIVER BEND STATION

. RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING REPORT FOR 1995 Tritium activities in the discharge line have remained constant on average since 1991, reflecting the releases already noted in the 1995 Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report (see also Table 6). These tritium levels reflect a decrease from 1990 due to removal of failed fuel, but represent an increase compared to years prior to 1990, due to more efficient radioactive wastewater treatment and reuse (e.g., boiler makeup). In the RBS boiler-reactor, tritium is produced by temary fission of the reactor fuel (*U), although only a small fraction of that tritium would diffuse through the fuel's cladding. Tritium is also produced by neutron reactions with certain isotopes of boron, deuterium and lithium when present in the boiler (e.g. as control rod material- boron). The particulates (metals and salts) are removed in this treatment leaving the tritium behind as water (e.g., [ H-O 'H]). When this water is reused as boiler makeup, the tritium concentration in the water increases.

In the ingestion exposure pathway, no gamma-emitting nuclides were measured above LLDs during 1995, although Cs-137 was quantified in three vegetation samples, well below LLD limits. There appears to have been no increase in radionuclide concentrations attributable to RBS operation in food / forage media over baseline levels (Appendix B).

Naturally-occurring K-40 was measured at an average of 4786 pCi/kg in indicator vegetation and at an average of 4258 pCi/kg in control vegetation in 1995, roughly the same levels encountered prior to RBS operation (Appendix B).

Another natural nuclide, Be-7, averaged 827 and 526 pCi/kg in indicator and control vegetation samples, respectively, during 1995. Although presumably present, Be-7 was not quantified during the preoperational phase for comparison.

3.3 Comparison of REMP Results with Operatina Controls The only measurable increases in concentrations of radionuclides or levels of radiation, attributable to plant operation, in the vicinity of RBS during 1945 appear to have been the expected low levels in the liquid Discharge Line. The indicator vs. control comparisons for airbome gross beta activity (Section 3.1.1; Table 5 and Appendix A) corroborate the reports of limited or no releases of particulates or radiciodine in 1995. The 1995 TLD data (Section 3.1.2; Table 5 and Appendix A) showed no appreciable differences in direct radiation exposures between indicator and control locations. Excerpted liquid effluent data from the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report are listed in Table 6 along with the corresponding Discharge Line analytical data for those nuclides which were measured by the REMP during 1995. These nuclide activities were well below the NRC reporting levels, but are listed here for comparison to substantiate the adequacy of source control and effluent monitoring at River Bend Station.

(1) Lower Limit of Detection (LLD) as defined in RBS Technical Specifications (NUREG 1172).

(2) Mean and range based on detectable measurements only. The fraction of detectable measurements at specified locations is indicated in parentheses (f).

(3) For each of the TLD locations in 1985, a value equal to one-third of its 4th Quarter gamma exposure is used to simulate a " quarterly" measurement for October,1985.

(4) Beginning in January,1985, groundwater was sampled from one upgradient (WU - control) and one downgradient (WD - indicator) well; previously, groundwater was sampled from construction dewatering (well-point) wells.

(5) The upstroam surface water sampling location (SWU) is used as a " control" for dnnking water comparisons.

(6) The values listed for K-40 were drived from the incipient in-house analytical program.

1 (7) The values listed for the control location for milk were derived from the incipient in-house analytical program. Training of personnel in calibration and  !

analytical methods delayed sample preparation and counting. As a result, the required LLDs were not met (by the in-house analytical program during this j training penod)in 2 out of 8 l-131 analyses; 1 out of 9 Cs-134 analyses; 1 out of 9 of Cs-137 analyses; 2 out of 9 Ba-140 analyses; and 4 out of 9 La- 1 140 analyses. Similarty, the required LLD for 1-131 in broadleaf vegetation was not met in 1 out of 11 analyses. (See discussion of Program Exceptions 1 in the Preoperational Radiological Environmental Monitoring Report for 1985.)

(8) The LLD for one downstream fish sample (catfish, analyzed in-house) was 265 pCi/kg (wet). The LLD for one upstream fish sample (largemouth bass, analyzed in-house) was 263 pCi/kg (wet).
