TS.3.9-9 REV Bases:

A.

Liquid Effluents l

Specification 3.9.A.1 is p ovided to ensure that the concentration of radio-active materials celeased in liquid waste ef fluents from the sita to unre-stricted areas will be less than the concentration levels specified in 10CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II Column 2.

This limitation provides additional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water outside the site will not result in exposures exceeding (1) the Section II.A design objectives of Appendix I,10 CFR Part 50, to an individual and (2) the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.106(2) to the population.

The concentration limit for disaolved or entrained noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xc-135 is the controlling radioisotope and its MPC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in Inter-national Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) Publication 2.

Specification 3.9. A.2.a is provided to implement the requirements of Sections 4

II.A, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50.

The Limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II. A of Appendix I.

Action required by Specification 3.8.A.2.B provides the required operating flexibility and at the same time implements the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achicvable", consider-ing that the nearest drinking water supply using the river for drinking water is more than 300 miles downstream, there is reasonable assurance that the operation of the facility will not result in radionuclide concentrations in the drinking water that are in excess of the requirements of 40 CFR 141.

Specification 3.9.A.3 provides assurance that the liquid redwaste treatment system will be available for use whenever liquid effluents require treatment prior to relcase to the environment.

The requirements that the appropriate portinns of this system be used when specified provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50 and the design objective,given in Section II.D of Appendix 1 to 10 CFR Part 50.

The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the liquid radwaste treatment system were specified as a suitable fraction of the guide set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I,;10 CFR Part 50, for liquid effluents.

The liquid radwaste treatment system is shared by both units. EIt is not practical to determine the contribution from each unit to liquid radwaste releases. For this reason, liquid radwaste releases will be allocated equally to each unit.

Restricting the quantity of radioactive. material' contained in the specified

. tanks provides assurance that in the event ofian uncontrolled release of the contents of _ the tank, the resulting concentrations would be less than the limits of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, in an unrestricted area.

TS.3.9-10 REV B.

Gaseous Effluents Specification 3.9.B.I.a is provided to ensure that the dose rate at anytime at the site boundary from gaseous ef fluents from all units on the site will be within the annual dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20 for unrestricted areas. The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B. Table II Column 1.

These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of an individual in an unrestricted area, either inside or outside the site boundary, to annual average concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table II of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR Part 20.106(b)).

For individuals who may at times be within the site boundary, the occupancy of the individual will be sufficiently low to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the site boundary.

The specified release rate limits restrict, at all tiacs, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to an individual at or beyond the site boundary to $ 500 mrem / year to the total body or to $3000 mrem / year to the skin. These release rate limits also restrict, at all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background to $1500 mrem / year at the site boundary.

Specification 3.9.B.2.a is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.B. III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50.

The Limiting Conditions for Operation implement the guides set forth in Section II.B of Appendix I.

Action required by Specification 3.9.B.2.b provides the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive material in-gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable."

Specification 3.9.B.3.a is provided to implement the requirements of Sections l

II.C, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50.

The Limiting Conditions t

for Operation are the guides set forth in Section II.C of Appendix I.

The I

action statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time implement the guides set forth in Section IV.A of Appendix I to assure that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept i

"as low as is reasonably achievable." The release rate specifications for I-131, tritium and radioactive particulates with half-lives greater than eight l

3 days are dependent on the existing radionuclide pathways to man in the unre-i stricted area. The pathways which are examined in the development of these calculations are: 1) individual inhalation of airborne radionuclides, 2) deposi-tion of radionuclides onto green Icafy vegetation with subsequent consumption a

by man, 3) deposition onto grassy areas where milk animals and meat producing animals graze with consumption of the milk and meat by man, and 4) deposition on the ground wth subsequent exposure of man.

Specification 3.9.B.4.a provides assurance that the Waste Cas Treatment System and the Ventilation Exhaust Treatment Systems will be available for use i

whenever gaseous wastes are released to the environment. The requirement that

{'

the appropriate portions of the Waste Gas Treatment System be used when specified provides reasonable assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents will be kept "as low as ic reasonably achievable."

This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR 50.36a, General

~

Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50, and the design objective given in Section II.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.

The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the systems were specified as a suitable fraction of the guide set forth in Sections II.B and II.C of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for gaseous effluents.

TS.3.9-12 REV Specification 3.9.B.4.c, 3.9.B.4.d and 3.9.B.4.e are provided to ensure that the concentration of potentially explosive gas mixtures contained in the waste gas treatment system is maintained below the flammability limits of hydrogen and oxygen. Automatic control features are included in the system to prevent the hydrogen and oxygen concentrations from reaching these flammability limits. Maintaining the concentrations below the flammability limit provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials will be controlled in conformance with the requirements of General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

The waste gas system is a pressurized systen with two potential yources of oxygen:

1) oxygen added for recombiner operation, and 2) placing tanks vented for maintenance back on the system. The system is operated with flow through the recombiners and with excess hydrogen in the system. By verifying that oxygen is $2% at the recombiner outlet, there will be no explosive mixtures in the system.

If the required gas analysers are not operable, the oxygen to the recombiner will be isolated to prevent oxygen from entering the system from this source. Tanks that may undergo maintenance are normally purged with nitrogen before placing them in service to eliminate this as a source of oxygen.

Specification 3.9.B.4.f is provided to limit the radioactivity which can be stored in one decay tank.

Restricting the quantity of radioactivity contained in each gas storage tank provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tank's contents, the resulting total body exposure to an individual at the nearest exclusion area boundary will not exceed 0.5 rem.

Specification 3.9.B.5.a requires the containment to be purged, during reactor operation, through the inservice purge system. This provides for iodine and particulate removal from the purge release. During outages when the containment is opened for maintenance, the containment ventilation exhaust is directed to the monitored reactor building vent.

The cooling towers at Prairie Island are located to the south of the plant and are within the 50*-arc described in this specification. At low wind, velocities (below 10 mph) the gaseous activity released from the gaseous radwaste systen could be at or near ground level near the cooling towers and remain long enough to be drawn into the circulating water in the tower. This specification minimizes the possibility of releases from the gaseous radwaste system from entering the river from tower scrubbing.

The Waste Gas Treatment System, containment purge release vent, and spent fuel pool vent are shared by both units. Experience has also shown that contributioas from both units are released from each auxiliary building vent. For this reason, it is not practical to allocate releases to any specific unit. All releases will be allocated equally in determining conformance to the design objectives of 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I.

s TS.3.9-13 REV i

C.

Solid Radioactive Waste The Operability requirements placed on the solid radwaste system ensure i

that the system will be available for use whenever solid radwastes require processing and packaging prior to being shipped offsite.

This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a and General Design Criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50.

The process parameters included in establishing the Process Control Program may include, but are not limited to waste type, war:c pH, waste / liquid / solidification agent / catalyst ratios, waste oil content, waste principal chemical constituents, mixing and curing times.

D.

Dose from All Uranium Fuel Cycle Sources This specification is provided to meet the dose limitations of 40 CFR 190.

)

The specification requires the preparation and submittal of a special report whenever the calculated doses from plant radioactive effluents exceed twice the design objective doses of Appendix I.

Submittal of the report is con-sidered a timely request, and a variance is granted until Staff action on this request is complete.

For sites containing up to 4 reactors, it is highly unlikely that the resultant dose to a real individual will exceed 40 CFR 190 if the individual reactors remain within the reporting requirement level.

For the purposes of the special report, it may be assumed that the dose commitment to the real individual from other uranium fuel cycle sources is negligible, with the exception that. dose contributions from other nuclear.

fuel cycle facilities at the same site or within a radius of 5 miles must-be considered.

E. & F. Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation These specifications are provided to assure that effluent releaseL points are continuously monitored.

TS.4.10-1 REV 4.10 RADIATION ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING PROGRAM Applicability Applies at all times to the periodic monitoring and recording of radioactive effluents found in the plant environs.

Objective To provide for measurement of radiation levels and radioactivity in the site environs on a continuing basis.

Specification A.

Sample collection and Analysis 1.

The Radiation Environmental Monitoring Program described in Table 4.10-1 shall be conducted. Radioanalysis shall be conducted meeting the requirements of Table TS.4.10-2.

A map and a table identifying the locations of the sampling shall be provided in the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (0DCM).

2.

Whenever the Radiation Environmental Monitoring Program is not.being conducted as specified in. Table TS.4.10-1 the Annual Radiation Environmental Monitoring Report shall-include a description of the reasons for not conducting the program as required and plans for preventing a recurrence.

(

3.

Deviations are permitted from the required sampling schedule if samples are unobtainable due ' to hazardous conditions, seasonable unavailability, or to malfunction of automatic sampling equipment. If the latter occurs, every ef fort shall be made to complete corrective action prior to the end of the next sampling period.

4.

With the level of radioactivity in an environmental sampling medium exceeding the reporting levels of Table 4.10-3 when averaged over any calendar quarter, in lieu of any other' report, prepare and submit

(

to the Commission within 30 days'from'the end of the.affected calendar

('

quarter a Report pursuant to Specification 6.7.C.2(a).

When more than

~

i one of the radionuclides in Table 3.12-2'are detected lLn the sampling l

medium, this report shall be submitted if:

concentration (1), concentration (2)

...> 1.0 l

limit level (1)

-limit level (2)

When radionuclides other than-those--in Table 4.10-2 are detected and are the. result of plant effluents, this report shal1~be submitted:if

~

the potential annual _ dose to an individual;is equal to or greater than

-the calendar year limits'of~ Specifications 3.9.A.2,13.9.B.2, or 3.9.B.3..

This. report is not required if the measured level of radioactivity was not the result of plant" effluents; however, in such an event,'the condition shall.be-reported and described in the Annual Radiological-

' Environmental Monitoring Report.

- - ~. -

TS.4.10-2 REV 1

i 5.

Although deviations from the required sampling schedule are permitted under Paragraph 3 above, whenever milk or leafy green vegetables can no longer be obtained from the designated sample locations required by Table 4.10-1, the Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Report for this period shall explain why the samples can no longer be obtained and will identify the new locations which will be added to and deleted from the monitoring program as soon as practicable.

B.

Land Use Census 1.

A land use census shall be conducted and shall identify the location of the nearest milk animal, the nearest residence, and the nearest garden of greater than 500 square feet producing fresh leafy vegetables in each of the 16 meteorological sectors within a distance of five miles. This census shall be conducted at least once per 12 months between the dates of May 1 and October 31 by door to door survey, aerial survey, or by consulting local agricultural authorities or associations.

2.

With a land use census identifying a location (s) which yields a calculated dose or dose commitment (via the same exposure pathway) 20 percent greater than at a location from which samples are currently being obtained in accordance with Specification 4.10-A.1, the Semiannual Radioactive Effluent Release Report for this-period shall identify the new-location. The new location shall be added to the radiological environmental monitoring program within 30 days.

The sampling location, excluding the control station location, having the lowest calculated dose or dose commit-ments (via the same exposure pathway) may be deleted from-this monitoring program af ter October 31 of the year in which this land use census was conducted.

C.

Interlaboratory-Comparison Program 1.

Analyses shall be performed on radioactive materials supplied as part of an NRC approved interlaboratory comparison program as described in the ODCM.

2. -The results of analyses performed as a part of the above required program shall be included in the Annual Radiation Environmental Monitoring Report.

When required' analyses are not performed, corrective action shall'be reported in the Annual Radiation Environmental Monitoring Report.

TS.4.10-3 REV Basis A.

Sample Collection & Analysis The Radiation Environmental Monitoring Program required by this specification provides measurements of radiation and radioactive materials in those exposure pathways and for those radionuclides which lead to the highest potential radiation exposures of individuals resulting from the plant operation.

This program thereby supplements the radiological effluent monitoring 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 modeling of the environmental exposure pathways.

The detection capabilities required by Table 4.10-2 are state-of-the-art for routine environmental measurements in industrial laboratories, and the LLD's for drinking water meet the requirement of 40CFR141 B.

Land Use Census This specification is provided to ensure that changes in the use of off site areas are identified and that modifications to the monitoring program are made if required by the results of this census. The best survey information f rom door-to-door, aerial or consulting with local agricultural authorities shall be used. This census satisfies the requirements of Section IV.B.3 of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.

Restricting the census to gardens of greater than 500 square feet provides assurance that significant exposure pathways via leafy vegetables will be identified and monitored since a garden of this size is the minimum required to produce the quantity (26 kg/ year) of leafy vegetables assumed in Regulatory Guide 1.109 for consumption by a child. To determine this minimum garden size, the following assumptions were used, 1) that 20% of the garden was used for growing broad leaf vegetation (i.e., similar to lettuce and cabbage), and 2) a vegetation yield of 2 kg/ square meter.

C.

Interlaboratory Comparison Progrm The requirement for participation in an interlaboratory comparison program is provided to ensure that independent checks on the precision and accuracy of the measurements of radioactive material in environmental sample matrices are performed as a part of a quality assurance program for environmental monitoring in order to demonstrate that the results are reasonably valid.
