OPERATIONAL RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAM JOSEPH M. FARLEY NUCLEAR PLANT UNITS 1 AND 2 I..
Introduction' The Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant, owned and operated by Alabama Power Company (APCo), located.in Houston County,~ Alabama is approximately fifteen
- miles east of Dothan, Alabama.on the west bank of the Chattahoochee River.
Unit.1, a Westinghouse Electric Corporation Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) with a rated power output of 860 megawatts electrical (MWe) achieved initial.
I criticality on August 9, 1977. The unit was declared " commercial".on December 1, 1977. Unit No. 2, also'a'860 MWe Westinghouse PWR, achieved initial criticality i'
on-May 8,1981 and was declared " commercial" on July 30,-1981.
1'
. During 1981, Unit No. I was shut down for a scheduled refueling outage
. from January 1 to March 24. On September 10, Unit.No. ~ 1 was' shut down, for an' i
unscheduled outage, due to an electric. generator failure and remained shut down through December 31, 1981.
The sample collection and analysis schedule for the operational off-site radiologica1' environmental monitoring program implemented in May, 1977 and as modifiedLon July 1, 1980 with the addition of 14 TLD stations was continued during 1981 for both Units No. 1 and 2.
This program was designed to monitor any radioactivity' contribution to the environs from the plant through either
!~
the-airbornesor waterborne pathways. The type of samples monitored, and number-and type of sampling stations are~shown in Table 1.
Indicator sampling stations were located, where practical, at locations where detection of.the radiological effects of the plant's operation was thought to be most likely, where the samples collected should provide a significant indication of potential dose to man, and where an' adequate; comparison of predicted radiological levels might be made with-j measured levels..The control stations were placedlat locations where~ radiological levels were not expected to'be significantly influenced by plant' operation, i.e.,
i Lat background locations. For some airborne radioactivity samples, community
' stations were located'at the principal. population centers between the indicator and the control stations-(3-8 miles). These in normal operation'could be used, if desired, as additional controlcatations, and alternatively, as indicator stations in the nearest population centers.in the event of a major airborne release of radioactivity from the' plant.-
- II. - Radiological Sampling and Analysis' A detailed outline of the operational radiological sampling and analysis activities for.the off-site' environmental program to meet'the requirements of the Unit'No.-1 Environmental Technical Specifications is given in Table 2.
The corresponding; sampling and analysis requirements for the Unit No. 2 Technical Specifications are given in' Table 3.
Where the same sampling and analysis requirements:are specified only one sample was collected.an'd one analysis performed to meet the, specifications ~for both Units No.-1 and 2.

The samples were collected by APCo's technical staff except for the in situ Ge(Li)' gamma-ray spectroscopy measurements of soil. The latter were made by
' staff. members of the University of Georgia, Center for Applied Isotope Studies.
- All sample analyses were, contracted to either the University of Georgia-(U.Ga.)
.cr the Eberline-Instrument Corporation (EIC) Santa Fe Facility. The minimum j
detectable concentration (MDC), specified for the various samples and their respective analyses are given in Table 4 for Unit No. 1 and Table 5 for Unit No. 2.
apling problems and/or deviations'from the sampling schedule were encountered during 1981. These are-listed in Table 6.
Aside from the
. usual occasional air sampling' station pump problems and non-availability of forage' at the prepared plots during the winter months the major _ deviation was
..the failure to make igt situ Ge(L1) gamma-ray; spectroscopy measurements in the-
. Fall of 1981. Repeated attempts by Princeton Gamma-Tech to repair the University i
of Georgia in situ. Ge(Li) detector failed,'thus resulting in the ultimate decision to scrap.the detector and purchase a new intrinsic Ge(Li) detector.
~
A. -A1 6 Particulates and Iodine-All'of the airborne particulates and iodine monitoring stations shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, 3.12-1, and 3.12-3 were equipped with Bell and Gossett vacuum pumps which operate continuously at a flow rate of about 0.04/m3/ min 3
(1.5 ft / min).. The particulates were collected on Gelman Metricel 50 mm filters.
.In series with, but downstream of the particulate filters, Gelman 50 mm activated charcoal cartridges (or equivalent) were used for j
collection of iodine. The latter were mounted horizontally to the' ground
-to insure uniform airflow through the filter. The accumulative air flows were measured with Rockwell Gas Meters which were calibrated against a certified. flow meter. Both the particulate filters and charcoal cartridges were collected weekly and were sent to U. Ga. for radioactivity analysis.
4 Gross beta radioactivity m?asurements were made on each air particulate L.
filter using a Beckman Lowbeta II low background proportional-counter, j-The filters from each station were composited and at the end of each
~
quarter were analyzed for gamma emitters using an eighteen percent relative c
efficiency low backgr'ound Ge(Li) detector and a Canberra 4096 channel b
computer-based' multichannel analyzer'(MCA).
In' addition, strontium-89, 90 were separated from the quarterly composite filters following the gamma-ray spectroscopy analyses and the beta activity measured using a Beckman Lowbeta-II low background proportional counter.
~ he. single separation, T
dual count technique-was used for the' determination of the. strontium-89 and strontium-90'present.- Stable strontium. carrier was'added to each sample _for determination of the radiochemical yield.-
'All the air monitoring station locations shown in Figures 1, 2, 3,
' 3.12-1, Land 3.12-3 have the capability of. monitoring ' airborne. iodine.
However,[ weekly routine samples.were. collected only:at the stations listed i
in Table 2.
These.were analyzed'for iodine-131 by U. Ga. using a Canberra
'1024.' channel MCA'and a special counter designed and built.by U. Ga. for counting iodine-131 activity'in charcoal cartridges, using two 1 x 3 NaI(Tl)' detectors and matched photomultiplier. tubes.

External Radiation j
For the continuous measurement of environmental gamma radiation, natural LiF (TLD-100) chips were supplied and read by Eberline Instrument Corporation. TLD packets each containing five ultrasonically cleaned and annealed LiF chips were supplied on both a quarterly and an annual basis.
The chips were first sealed in opaque polyethylene to give a packet that was light-tight, weather-proof, and which had a low mass attenuation for 2
radiation (approximately 50 mg/cm ),
Two control TLD packets were shipped with each quarterly and annual batch of TLD's as an indicator of any unusual exposure during transit, and at the plant site prior to, or after field exposure. On the plant site, all TLD packets were kept in a lead safe with 2-inch walls except for those receiving field exposure or in the process of being exchanged.
Control Packet No. 1 which had been received with the new batch of TLD's and Control Packet No. 2 received with the previous batch of TLD's were returned with the field exposed TLD's for a reading of their respective doses. The new Control Packet NO. 2 remained in the safe until the next TLD exchange and the above procedure was repeated.
At each external radiation monitoring station, shown in Figures.1, 2, 3, 3.12-1, 3.12-2, and 3.12-3, two TLD packets, one changed and read quarterly and one changes and read annually, were exposed side-by-side on metal stakes at a height of one meter above the ground. For the computation of the net field doses, a log of all exposure periods was maintained for each TLD packet.
C.
Milk Milk samples were collected semi-monthly at the location shown in Figures 3 and 3.12-3 and were analyzed by U. Ga. for iodine-131, gamma emitters, and strontium-89, 90 in accordance with the schedule shown in Table 2.
As a preservative during shipment, 1 ml of a 25 percent (by weight) merthiolate (Thimerasol) solution and 4 ml of a 6N NaOH solution were added to each 2.5 gallon sample.
The iodine-131 concentration in each sample was determined by collection on anion exchange resin, elution with sodium hypochlorite, followed by organic extraction and counting by beta-gamma coincidence the resultant toluene-iodine solution in a'special design (UGA) low level liquid scintillation counter. Stable iodine carrier was added to each sample for determination of the radiochemical yield.
Once each month a 1 liter sample was placed in a marinelli beaker and was then analyzed for gamma emitters using an 18 per cent relative efficiency low background Ge(Li) detector and a Canberra 4096 channel computer based MCA.

Also,'once each month for each sampling station, a 1.5 liter aliquot of milk was taken for radiostrontium analysis. Following an EDIA separation of calcium, the single separation dual count technique, using a Beckman Lowbeta II background proportional counter. was used for beta measurements.
~Following th~e second count, the in-growth of yttrium-90 was determined and stable strontium carrier was added for determination of radiochemical yield.
From these data, the strontium-90 and strontium-89 concentrations were calculated.
D.
Vegetation 1.
Forage Once each month, forage was collected from-indicator grass plots located near the. air monitoring stations at the plant 4
site perimeter in sectors 7 (SSE) and'16 (N), and from a control grass plot located near the air monitoring station in Dothan. After drying and pulverizing the samples were analyzed by U. Ga. for gamma emitters using an 18 per cent relative efficiency low. background Ge(Li) detector and a Canberra 4096 channel computer based MCA.

Vegetables and Fruits a.
Green leafy vegetables During the growing season. 0ctober through March, green leafy vegetables'were obtained monthly as available.from
-gardens in the vicinity of the plant (1-3 miles) and from gardens in the Dothan area (>10 miles) and were analyzed.
by U. Ca. for gamma emitters using an 18 per cent relative efficiency low background Ge(L1) detector, and a Canberra i-4096 channel computer-based MCA.
I b.
Other Vegetables and Fruits i
As available, samples of the principal vegetables and-fruits (non-green leafy) grown in the plant vicinity (1-3 miles) were obtained at harvest along with the samples
.from gardens in the Dothan area (>10 miles). The edible portions of these samples were prepared and analyzed for gamma emitters by U. Ga. using an 18 per. cent. relative efficiency low background Ge(Li) detector'and a Canberra 4096 channel. computer-based MCA.
E.
Soil Semi-annual in situ gamma-ray spectroscopy measurements were made.
by U. Ga. using a 14 per cent relative efficiency Ge(Li) detector and gamma-ray spectroscopy system specially designed for field use, at the-l 9 indicator locations shown.in Figure 1 and at the 6 community and control (background) locations shown.in Figures 2 and 3.
A 1024 channel Canberra MCA was interfaced to a Hewlett-Packard 9825A calculator for data storage-

Samples of~ water from the Chattahoochee River, above and below the plant site at the locations shown in Figures 4 and 3.12-4, were collected
.on a semi-continuous basis with Instrumentation Specialties Company (ISCO)
F samplers. Monthly composites were sent to U. Ga. for radioactivity i-analysis. Two. liter aliquots from each monthly composite were placed in trays lined with plastic film and evaporated to dryness at 100*C.
The

Sediment (River)
On a semi-annual basis sediment samples were collected from the Chattahoochee River above and below the plant site at the locations shown in. Figures 4 and 3.12-4.
Approximately 1 kg from each sampling point was sent to U. Ga. for gamma-ray spectroscopy analysis. The samples were dried, mixed, and analyzed using'an 18 per. cent relative efficiency low background Ge(Li) detector and a Canberra 4096 channel computer-based MCA.
After completion of the gamma-ray spectroscopy analysis, a 25 g sample from each location was used for strontium-90 analysis. The samples were dried, mixed, and a portion of each was treated with acid. The strontium was converted to the carbonate and the strontium-90 content determined using the single separation dual count technique. The beta activity was measured with a Beckman Lowbeta II low background proportional counter.
Stable strontium carrier was added for determination of radiochemical yield.
K.
Groundwater (Well)
In the Farley Plant area, there are no indicator sources of groundwater-in the true sense of the definition. A well which serves the Great Southern Paper as a source of potable water, located on the east bank of the Chattahoochee River about four miles south-southeast of the plant, was sampled on a quarterly basis and designated as an indicator station. A deep well which supplies water to the Whatley Residence located about 1.2 miles southwest of the center of the' plant was sampled on a quarterly basis and designated as a control (background) station. ' Samples from both were-sent to U. Ga. for radioactivity analysis.- An aliquot from each sample was taken for tritium analysis. After distillation, 25 m1 samples were analyzed using a large volume (100 ml) low background liquid scintilla-tion counter specially designed and built by U. Ga. From the remainder of each sample, a.two liter aliquot was taken and evaporated to dryness at 100'C in a tray lined with plastic film. The residue and film was folded to' fit a petri dish and analyzed for gamma emitters using an 18 relative per cent Ge(Li) detector and a Canberra 4096 channel computer-based MCA.

Results and Discussion During the operational period no known atmospheric nuclear tests were conducted. However. measurable levels of radioactivity.from the test conducted by the Peoples Republic of_ China on October 16, 1980 were found in several
-sample media throughout the spring and summer. By the end of 1981 the airborne radioactivity levels in all samples had shown a substantial decrease.
For measurements involving radioactivity concentrations by volume or mass the' designation " minimum-detectable concentration" (MDC) is used to denote the t'
limit of detection applicable at the 95 per cent confidence level. The MDC-is defined as "the smallest concentration-of radioactive material in a sample that will be detected with 95 per. cent probability with only 5 per cent' probability of falsely concluding-its presence". For a particular measurement, which may include radiochemical separation:
4.66 Sb MDC = 2.22 EMY (1).
'where i
[
MDC:is'the estimated minimum detectable concentration as defined above (pCi per unit mass or volume) i Sb is the standard deviation of the background counting rate for_ the sample being analyzed (a posteriori) or of a blank sample (a priori) as appropriate (counts per minute):
2.22 is the number of transformations per picocurie'per minute E is the counting efficiency (counts'per transformation)
~
M is the~ weight.of sample in kilograms or volume of sample in liters, as applicable Y is the fractional radiochemical yield (when applicable) l' For measurements-involving a quantity of radioactivity or radiation that i
is independent of the sample volume or mass the designation " lower limit of I
detection"~(LLD)'is used to' denote'the limit of detection applicable at the 95 per cent confidence level..The LLD is' defined as "the smallest amount of l
sample activity' that will' yield a net count for which there'is confidence at a predetermined level that activity is present".
It's applications are limited
~
to measurement systems which denote a limiting detection capability without respect to the size of sample and/or radiochemical yield and.to measurements which by their nature do not involve concentrations, such as radiation dose rates-(arad/hr., mrad /qtr., etc.)
i A.
. Airborne Particulates and Iodine
-The results of the radioactivity analyses of airborne particulate filters and' iodine charcoal cartridges are shown in Table F05-1.
The mean gross beta activity values were slightly higher for the indicator than for.
community and control sampling locations,.but is not considered significant.
Also, allLlocations including-the control locations have slightly higher
' average. values;than for the preoperational period =and are about four times higher than the' respective 1980' values.

The gamma-ray spectroscopy data for the air particulate filter composites showed the presence of fission product fallout from the
~
October 1980 Chinese nuclear test during the first, second and third quarters of 1981. The activities found were generally about the same level as found during the preoperational period which included several Chinese atmospheric ~ nuclear tests. Although they were higher than found j
in 1980 there were no significant differences between the indicator, community'and control locations.
Strontium-89 and strontium-90 were found in most of the indicator, community, and. control!1ocation samples. The average strontium-89 values were somewhat higher'than the respective 1980 values and were slightly higher than the preoperational values. The average strontium-90 values were not significantly different from the 1980 and preoperational values. For both strontium-89 and strontium-90 the average values for
-the community and control stations were slightly higher than for the indicator values. Alliodine-131 values were below the measurement MDC as was found in 1980 and during the preoperational period.
- B.
External Radiation The results of the' external ~ radiation measurements using TLD packets, each containing five LiF chips,.are shown in Table F05-2. As found during the preoperational measurement period and during 1980, the data reflects j
the differences in site specific soil radioactivity, with the average indicator values higher than for the community and control values. All
- the averages were lower than found in 1980 but.were' higher than found '
during the preoperational period. Although, the sums for the four 3
quarterly measurements were higher than-the averages for the annual TLD's the difference was less than in 1980. During the preoperational period that average values for the annual TLD's was slightly higher than the respective sums of the four quarterly measurements which is the reverse of that found in 1981.

C.
. Milk
~ The results from the analysis of milk for radioactivity'are shown in Table F05-3.
Milk from the Brooks-Silcox Dairy was sampled as
.the control. No indicator milk locations were available for comparison during 1981. Other-than natural radioactivity and a very low level of
' cesium-137 in one sample only' strontium-89 and strontium-90 were found
.at detectable levels. The average strontium-89 value was slightly higher than found during the preoperational period but the strontium-90 value was a factor of two lower. During 1980 only strontium-90 was found for which'the average value was slightly lower..

l location downstream of the plant was about a factor of two higher than the average for the upstream control location. Again because of:the low levels the differenceLis not. considered significant since the average values ~are only slightly higher than those found in 1980 and during the preoperational period.
Again as in-1980, no detectable gamma. radioactivity was found L
'in the around' water samples. However, two of the indicator samples from aother Great Southern Paper Company Well~ indicated tritium at an average-level only slightly lower than that for the surface water from the river.
Tritium-was also'found-in one. sample.from the.well during 19d0 and in one sample during the preoperational period.

Aquatic Vegetation (River)
The results of the radioactivity analysis of aquatic vegetation from the Chattahoochee River are shown in F05-7.
The influence of the 1980 Chinese nuclear test on fission product radioactivities was found at both the indictfor and control locations. The levels were quite low and are not consi ' red significant. Cesium-137 was found in all the 1980 samples at comparuole levels and in some preoperational samples at higher levels.
Strontium-89 was found in one of the indicator samples but not in the control samples. Whereas, strontium-90 was found in all both control samples but in only one indicator sample. During the preoperational period strontium-89 was found in one indicator and one control sample, whereas strontium-90 was found in most of the samples at much higher average values.
H.
Benthos: Clams The results of the radioactivity analysis of tissue from Chattahoochee River clams are shown in Table F05-8.
As shown in the table the only manmade radioactivity is niobium-95 at very near the MDC in one indicator sample. During 1980 cesium-134 was found in one sample and during the preoperational period low levels of both strontium-89 and strontium-90 were found most of the samples.
I.
Fish: River The results of gamma-ray spectroscopy analysis of the edible portions of three types of fish taken from the Chattahoochee River are shown in Table F05-9.
For the first time manmade radioactivity other than cesium-137, which was found in 1980 and during the preoperational period, was found in fish.
Zirconium-95 and niobium-95 were found in both forage feeding and bottom feeding species of fish. For the forage feeding fish they were both found in one of the indicator samples, whereas, for bottom feeding fish niobium-95 was found in one indicator sample and zirconium-95 in one control sample. The levels in all samples were quite low and no significance is placed on the values other than the movement of radioactivity in the environment from the atrborne to waterborne media.
J.
Sediment: River The results of radioactivity analysis of sediment samples from the Chattahoochee River are shown in Table F05-10. Manmade radioactivity was not found at detectable levels during 1980 and during the preoperational period. However, in 1981 niobium-95 was found in one and cesium-137 in both control samples. No detectable manmade radioactivity was found in the indicator samples.
Strontium-90 was also found in one of the c ntrol samples.

Land Use Census The results of the June 1981 Land Use Census are given in Attachment 1.
.Likewise the results of the December 1981 Milk Animal Survey (Specification of Unit 1 ETS) are given in Attachment 2.
B.
Interlaboratory Comparison Program
, The University of Georgia Center for Applied Isotope Studies was a participant in.the EPA Crosscheck Program. The U. Ga. EPA Program code designation is EA.-
V.
Data Trends and Conclusion Review of the analysis data against 1980 and preoperational revealed no trends indicating changes in radioactivity levels in the environs of the Farley Nuclear Plant as the result ~of its operation. This is supported by the low levels of radioactivity measured in plant effluents discharged to the environment, as reported in the semi-annual radioactive effluent release reports for 1981.
Based on information supplied in,this report there is no significant evidence to indicate any increase in airborne or waterborne environmental radioactivity as the result of plant operations.

TABLE 6 SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS DEVIATIONS DURING 1981 WEEK STARTING LOCATION AND NATURE OF DEVIATION 1/12/81 All Direct Radiation Monitoring Stations: Collection of 1980 fourth i
quarter and annual TLD's and installation of 1981 first quarter and annual TLD's were delayed from schedule during last week in December 1980 due to late arrival from Eberline Instrument Corporation and misplacement by Farley storeroom personnel.
1/19/81 Columbia Air Sampling Station: Low volume due to clogged intake line.
l
. Indicator Forage Sampling Stations:
Samples collected at alternate locations due to unavailability at north and south perimeter forage sampling plots.
(Dry weather _and deer grazing on forage plots)
Control Forage Sampling Station:
Sample collected, but size inadequate for valid analysis.
Leafy Vegetables: No control sample available.
2/9/81 Great Southern Paper Air Sampling Station: Low volume due to mechanical pump problem.
Direct Radiation Monitoring Station (NW-4): Quarterly'TLD missing.
~
2/16/81
'All Forage Sampling Stations: -Forage was unavailable from sample
_ plots, thus forage was collected from alternate locations.
2/23/81.
Neals Landing Air Sampling Station:- Low volume due to mechanical failure of pump.
3/2/81.
Air Sampling Locations, North Perimeter Plant Intake Structure, Blakely,'Ashford and Dothan:. Low volume due to possible hose leakage. Check on 3/6/81 indicated that flow rate, pumps and totalizer vere working properly.

7/13/81-
. Control Milk' Sampling Station:
Sampling period exceeded the.
9/14/81 16-day Unit'.2 specification at the end of each quarter, due to 12/14/81 long established milk sampling schedule _on the second an'd fourth-
-Mondays of each month. A change in schedule was not instituted.

LAND USE SURVEY FOR RADIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM i
FARLEY NUCLEAR PLANT JUNE 1-5,1981 This Land Use Survey combined the semi-annual milk animal survey with the annual garden and nearest resident survey.
j A.
Houston County, Alabama Mr. A. M. Mathews, Houston County Extension Agent was visited for the purpose of discussing the location of milk animals in Houston He said that there had been no change in the dairy business County.
He said that the in Houston County during the past six months.
Silcox Dairy was still the closest one to the plant.
A subsequent house-to-house canvas of residents along Alabama 95 for
- a. distance of about three miles and for about a mile of the plant entrance on Houston County 42 was negative with respect to the presence of milk animals.
- Simultaneous with the milk animal canvas a survey wgs made to locate the nearest resident and vegetable garden (>500 ft.Z) in each meteorological sector.
B.
Early County, Georgia Mr. Wayne Tankersley, Early County Extension Agent, was visited to discuss whether any milk animals were now present in Early County.
He said that there were no dairies in the county and no individual milk animals unless Mrs. Henry Perry in Cedar Springs had acquired a milk cow.
A subsequent check with Mrs. Perry's son (Mrs. Perry was out-of-state) confirmed that she did not have a milk cow. A house-to-house canvas of the area east of the Chattahoochee River was negative with respect to milk animals.
Simultaneous with the milk animal canvas a survey was made to locate the nearest resident and vegetable garden (>500.ft.2) in each l
i meteorological sector.
