For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 1 E-04 microcuries/ml total activity. Dose Limits The dose or dose commitment, to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released from each unit to UNRESTRICTED AREAS, shall be limited: During any calendar quarter, to less than or equal to 1.5 mrems to the whole body and to less than or equal to 5 mrems to any organ, and During any calendar year, to less than or equal to 3 mrems to the whole body and to less than or equal to 10 mrems to any organ. Effluent Concentration Limit ECl values used in determining allowable liquid radwaste release rates and concentrations, for principal gamma emitters, 1-131, tritium, Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55, are taken from 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. A tolerance factor of up to 10 is utilized to allow flexibility in establishing practical monitor set points which can accommodate effluent releases at concentrations higher than the ECl values stated in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. For dissolved or entrained noble gases in liquid radwaste, the ECl is 1 E-04 uCi/ml total activity. For gross alpha in liquid radwaste, the ECl is 2E-09 uCi/ml. Furthermore, for all the above radionuclides, or categories of radioactivity, the overall ECl fraction is determined in accordance with 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B. The method utilizing the ECl fraction to determine liquid radwaste release rates and effluent radiation monitor set points is described in Subsection 1.3 of this report. 1 The method utilizing the ECl fraction to determine the dose released from groundwater outfalls is described in Subsection 1.4 of this report. Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity for Liquid Radwaste Prior to the release of any tank containing liquid radwaste, following the required recirculations, samples are collected and analyzed in accordance with the Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODeM) Table 2-3. A sample from each tank planned for release is analyzed for principal gamma emitters, 1-131, and dissolved and entrained noble gases, by gamma spectroscopy. Monthly and quarterly composites are prepared for analysis by extracting aliquots 'from each sample taken from the tanks released. Liquid radwaste sample analyses are performed as described in Section 1.3.1.

Tritium Monthly Distillation and liquid Composite scintillation counting Gross Alpha Monthly Gas flow proportional Composite counting 5. Sr-89 & Sr-90 Chemical separation and gas flow proportional or scintillation counting 6. Quarterly Chemical separation and liquid scintillation counting Gamma isotopic measurements are performed in-house using germanium detectors with a resolution of 2.0 keY or lower. The detectors are shielded by four inches of lead. A liquid radwaste sample is typically counted for 2000 seconds and a peak search of the resulting gamma ray spectrum is performed.
Energy and net count data for all significant peaks are determined and a quantitative reduction or MOC calculation is performed to ensure that the MOC's are met for the nuclides specified in the OOCM Chapter 10 (Le., Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141 and Ce-144). The quantitative calculations, corrections for counting time, decay time, sample volume, sample geometry, detector efficiency, baseline counts, branching ratio and MOC calculations, are made based on the counts at the location in the spectrum where the peak for that radionuclide would be located, if present. Typically achieved liquid effluent sample analyses minimum detectable concentrations are reported in Table 1-4. Tritium, Gross Alpha, Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55 are, in some cases, analyzed offsite. The radionuclide concentrations determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis of samples taken from tanks planned for release, in addition to the most current sample analysis results available for tritium, gross alpha, Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55, are used along with the corresponding ECl values to determine the ECl fraction for these tanks. This ECl fraction is then used, with the appropriate safety factors, tolerance factors, and the expected dilution stream flow to calculate maximum permissible release rate and a liquid effluent monitor setpoint. The monitor setpoint is calculated to assure that the limits of the OOCM are not exceeded. A monitor reading in excess of the calculated setpoint will result in an automatic termination of the liquid radwaste discharge. Liquid effluent discharge is also automatically terminated if the dilution stream 'flow rate falls below the minimum assured dilution 'flow rate used in the setpoint calculations and established as a setpoint on the dilution stream flow monitor. Radionuclide concentrations, safety factors, dilution stream flow rate, and the liquid effluent radiation monitor calibration factor, are entered into the computer and a pre-release printout is generated. If the release is not permissible, appropriate warnings will be displayed on the computer screen. If the release is permissible, it is approved by the qualified technician on duty. The pertinent information is transferred manually from the prerelease printout to a one-page release permit, which is forwarded to Radwaste Operations. When the release is completed, the release permit is returned from Radwaste Operations to Chemistry with the actual release data provided. These data are input into the computer and a post-release printout is generated. The post release printout contains the actual release rates, the actual release concentrations and quantities, the actual dilution flow, and the calculated doses to a Member of the Public. Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity for Groundwater Dutfa/l-Y22N008A Samples are collected and analyzed in accordance with the Edwin I. Hatch Nuclear Plant Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) Table 2-3. Weekly, monthly and quarterly composites are prepared for analysis by extracting aliquots from the outfall's automatic sampler, which collects a composite sample over a seven-day period. Sample analyses are performed as described in Section 1.4.1. Total Radioactivity Determination for Groundwater Dutfalls MEASUREMENT METHOD Gamma Isotopic

Sr-89 & Sr-90 Chemical separation and gas flow proportional or scintillation counting Gamma isotopic measurements are performed in-house using germanium detectors with a resolution of 2.0 keV or lower. The detectors are shielded by four inches of lead. A weekly composite sample is typically counted to Environmental MDC's and a peak search of the resulting gamma ray spectrum is performed.
Energy and net count data for all significant peaks are determined and a quantitative or MDC calculation is performed to ensure that the MDC's are met for the nuclides specified in the ODCM Chapter 10 (Le., Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141 and Ce-144). The quantitative calculations, corrections for counting time, decay time, sample volume, sample geometry, detector efficiency, baseline counts, branching ratio and MDC calculations, are made based on the counts at the location in the spectrum where the peak for that radionuclide would be located, if present. Typically achieved liquid effluent sample analyses minimum detectable concentrations are reported in Table 1-4. Tritium, Gross Beta, Sr-89 and Sr-90 are, in some cases, analyzed offsite. The radionuclide concentrations determined by gamma spectroscopic analysis of the weekly composite sample, in addition to the most current sample analysis results available for tritium, gross beta, Sr-89 and Sr-90, are used along with the corresponding ECl values to determine the ECl fraction for these composite samples. This ECl fraction is then used, with the appropriate safety factors, tolerance factors, and the expected dilution stream flow to calculate projected dose released. Radionuclide concentrations, safety factors and dilution stream flow rate are entered into the computer and a pre-release printout is generated for each release period. When the release period is complete, the release permit is updated with the actual release data collected during the release period. These data are input into the computer and a post-release printout is generated. The post release printout contains the actual release rates, the actual release concentrations and quantities, the actual dilution 'flow, and the calculated doses to a Member of the Public. Cumulative dose results are tabulated along with the percent of the aDCM limit for each release period, for the current quarter and year. 1.5 Total Error Estimation The maximum error associated with volume and flow measurements, based upon plant calibration practice, is estimated to be + or -10%. The average error associated with counting is estimated to be less than + or -15%. Therefore, the total error estimation is + or -18%. Liquid Effluent Release Data Regulatory Guide 1.21, Tables 2A and 28 are found in this report as Table 1-1A, for Unit 1, Table 1-18, for Unit 2 and Table 1-1C, for the site; and Table 1-2A, for Unit 1-28, for Unit 2, and Table 1-2C, for the site. Typical liquid minimum detectable concentrations (MDC's) used for analyses are found in Table 1-4. The evaluation for the release of radioactive RHR Service Water for 2010 can be found in Appendix A of this report. The values for the fou r categories of Tables 1-1 A, and 1-18, and 1-1 C, are calculated and the Tables completed as follows: Fission and activation products -The total release values (not including tritium, gases, and alpha) are comprised of the sum of the measured individual radionuclide activities. This sum is for each batch released to the river for the respective quarter. Tritium -The measured tritium concentrations in the monthly composite samples are used to calculate the total release and average diluted concentration during each period. Dissolved and entrained gases -Concentrations of dissolved and entrained gases in liquid effluents are measured by germanium spectroscopy using a one liter sample from each liquid radwaste batch. The measured concentrations are used to calculate the total release and the average diluted concentration during the period. Radioisotopes of iodine in any form are also determined during the isotopic analysis for each batch; therefore, a separate analysis for possible gaseous forms is not performed because it would not provide additional information. Gross alpha radioactivity -The measured gross alpha concentrations in the monthly composite samples are used to calculate the total release of alpha radioactivity.
1.7 Radiological
Impact Due to Liquid Releases Doses to a Member of the Public due to radioactivity in liquid effluents were calculated in accordance with the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. Results are presented in Table 1-3A for Unit 1, and 1-3B for Unit 2, for all four quarters.

Dose Rate Limits The dose rate due to radioactive materials released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY shall be limited to the following: For noble gases: Less than or equal to 500 mrems/yr. to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrems/yr. to the skin and, For lodine-131, lodine-133, tritium and for all radionuclides in particulate form with half lives greater than 8 days: Less than or equal to 1500 mrems/yr. to any organ. Air Doses Due To Noble Gases in Gaseous Effluents The air dose due to noble gases released in gaseous effluents, from each unit, to areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY, shall be limited to the following: During any calendar quarter: Less than or equal to 5 mrads for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 10 mrads for beta radiation, and During any calendar year: Less than or equal to 10 mrads for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 20 mrads for beta radiation. Doses To A Member of the Public The dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from lodine-131, lodine-133, tritium and all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days, in gaseous effluents released from each unit, to areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY, shall be limited to the following. During any calendar quarter: Less than or equal to 7.5 mrems to any organ. During any calendar year: Less than or equal to 15 mrems to any organ. Measurements and Approximations of Total Radioactivity Waste gas release at Plant Hatch is confined to four paths: main stack (also called the offgas vent), Unit 1 reactor building vent; Unit 2 reactor building vent, and the recombiner building vent. Each of these four paths is continuously monitored for gaseous radioactivity. Sample Collection and Analysis Each of the four gaseous effluent paths is equipped with an integrating-type sample collection device for collecting particulates and iodines. Unless required more 'frequently under certain circumstances, samples are collected as follows: Noble gas samples are collected by grab sampling monthly. Tritium samples are collected by grab sampling monthly. Radioiodine samples are collected by pulling the sample stream through a charcoal cartridge over a 7-day period. Particulates are collected by pulling the sample stream through a particulate filter over a 7-day period. The 7-day particulate filters above are analyzed for gross alpha activity. Quarterly composite samples are prepared from the particulate filters collected over the previous quarter and the samples are analyzed for Sr-89 and Sr-90. Sample analyses results and release flow rates from the four release points form the basis for calculating released quantities of radionuclide-specific radioactivity, the dose rates associated with gaseous releases, and the cumulative doses for the current quarter and year. This task is normally performed with computer assistance. The noble gas grab sample analysis results are used along with maximum expected release flow rates from each of the four vents to calculate monitor setpoints for the gaseous effluent monitors serving the four release points. Calculation of monitor setpoints is described in the ODCM. Typically achieved minimum detectable concentrations for gaseous effluents sample and analyses are reported in Table 2-6. For each release period, released radioactivity, dose rates, and cumulative doses are calculated. Cumulative dose results are tabulated along with the percent of the ODCM limit for each release, for the current quarter and year. 28
2.2.2 Total
Quantities of Radioactivity, Dose Rates, and Cumulative Doses The methods for determining release quantities of radioactivity, dose rates, and cumulative doses follow: 2.2.2. 1 Fission and Activation Gases The released radioactivity is determined using sample analyses results collected as described above and the average release flow rates over the period represented by the collected sample. Dose rates due to noble gases, radioiodines, tritium, and particulates are calculated (with computer assistance). The calculated dose rates are compared to the dose rate limits specified in aDCM 3.1.2 for noble gases, radioiodine, tritium, and particulates. Dose rate calculation methodology is presented in the aDCM. Beta and gamma air doses due to noble gases are calculated for the location in the unrestricted area with the potential for the highest exposure due to gaseous releases. Air doses are calculated for each release period and cumulative totals are kept for each unit for the calendar quarter and year. Cumulative air doses are compared to the dose limits specified in aDCM 3.1.3. The current percent of the aDCM limits are shown on the printout for each release period. Air dose calculation methodology is presented in the aDCM. 2.2.2.2 Radioiodine, Tritium and Particulate Releases Released quantities of radioiodines are determined using the weekly samples and release flow rates for the four release points. Radioiodine concentrations are determined by gamma spectroscopy. Release quantities of particulates are determined using the weekly (filter) samples and release flow rates for the four release points. Gamma spectroscopy is used to quantify concentrations of principal gamma emitters. After each quarter, the particulate filters from each vent are combined, fused, and a strontium separation is performed. Since sample flows and vent flows are almost constant over each quarterly period the 'filters 'from each vent can be dissolved together. Decay corrections are performed back to the middle of the quarterly collection period. If Sr-89 or Sr-90 is not detected, MDC's are calculated. Strontium concentrations are input into the composite file of the computer and used for release dose rate and dose calculations for a Member of the Public. Tritium samples are obtained monthly from each vent by passing the sample stream through a cold trap. The grams of water vapor/cubic foot is measured upstream of the cold trap in order to alleviate the difficulties in determining water vapor collection efficiencies. The tritium samples are analyzed by an independent laboratory and the results are furnished in uCi/ml of water. The tritium concentration in water is converted to the tritium concentration in air and this value is input into the composite file of the computer and used in release, dose rate, and individual dose calculations. Dose rates due to radioiodine, tritium and particulates are calculated for a hypothetical child exposed to the inhalation pathway at the location in the unrestricted area where the potential dose rate is expected to be the highest. Dose rates are calculated, for each release point for each release period, and the dose rates from each release point are compared to the dose rate limits as described in aDCM 3.1.2 Doses due to radioiodine, tritium and particulates are calculated for the controlling receptor, which is described in the aDCM. Doses to a Member of the Public are calculated for each release period, and cumulative totals are kept for each unit, for the current calendar quarter and year. Cumulative doses are compared to the dose limits specified in aDCM 3.1.4. The current percent of aDCM limits are shown on the printout for each release period. 2.2.2.3 Gross Alpha Release The gross alpha release is computed each month by counting the particulate filters, for each week for gross alpha activity in a proportional counter. The four or five weeks' numbers are then recorded on a data sheet and the activity is summed at the end of the month. The summed activity is then divided by the total monthly volume to determine the concentration. This concentration is input into the composite file of the computer and used for release calculations.
2.2.3 Total
Error Estimation The total or maximum error associated with the effluent measurement will include the cumulative errors resulting from the total process of sampling and measurement. Due to the difficulty with assigning error terms for each parameter affecting the final measurement, detailed statistical evaluation of error is not suggested. The objective is to obtain an overall estimate of the error associated with measurements of radioactive materials released in liquid and gaseous effluents and solid waste. Estimated errors are associated with counting equipment calibration, counting statistics, vent-flow rates, vent sample flow rates, non steady release rates, chemical yield factors and sample losses for such items as charcoal cartridges. Fission and activation total release was calculated from sample analysis results and release point flow rates. Statistical error Counting equipment calibration Vent flow rates Non-steady release rates TOTAL ERROR 1-131 releases were calculated from each weekly sample.

Data is presented on a quarterly basis as required by Regulatory Guide 1.21 for all quarters. To complete table 2-1 A, 2-18, and 2-1 C, total release for each of the four categories (fission and activation gases, iodines, particulates, and tritium) was divided by the number of seconds in the quarter to obtain a release rate in uCi/second for each category for each quarter. However, the percent of the ODCM limits are not applicable because we have no curie limits for gaseous releases. Applicable limits are expressed in terms of dose. Noble gases are limited as specified in ODCM 3.1.2. The other three categories (tritium, radioiodines, and particulates) are limited as a group as specified in ODCM 3.1.2. Dose rates due to noble gas releases, and due to radioiodine, tritium, and particulates were calculated as part of the pre-release and post-release permits on individual permits. No limits were exceeded for this reporting period. Gross alpha radioactivity is reported in Table 2-1A, 2-18, and 2-1C, as curies released in each quarter. Limits for cumulative beta and garnma air doses due to noble gases are speci'fied in ODCM 3.1.3. Cumulative air doses are presented in Table 2-4A and 2-48, along with percent of ODCM limits. Limits for cumulative doses to a Member of the Public due to radioiodine, tritium and particulates, are specified in ODCM 3.1.4. Cumulative doses to a Member of the Public doses are presented in Table 2-5A, and 2-58, along with percent of ODCM limits.
2.4 Radiological
Impact Due to Gaseous Releases Dose rates due to noble gas release were calculated for the site in accordance with aDCM 3.1.2.

HATCH NUCLEAR UNITS NO. 1 & ANNUAL JANUARY 1, 2010 -DECEMBER 31,2010 APPENDIX A Release of Radioactive RHR Service Water for 2010 The following historical information is provided to create a perspective for the release of radioactivity during the year 2010 relative to the RHR Service Water System. In 1996, the analysis of samples from the Unit 1 RHR "8" Loop service water (RHRSW) system identified several radionuclides at very low concentrations. The first indication of contamination was noted on August 8,1996 and the second indication was noted on August 23, 1996. The total activity in the RHRSW contained within the heat exchanger, which has a volume of approximately 4000 gallons, was respectively estimated to be about 13.7 !lCi and 25.6 JlCi. On August 23,1996 repairs were made to a Ap instrument in an effort to stop the in leakage into the service water side of the heat exchanger. To determine if the leak had been repaired, the service water loop of the heat exchanger was decontaminated by flushing and the service water in the loop was then resampled and analyzed. The circulating water flume has a blowdown line, which diverts a small portion of the total circulating water to the river via the discharge structure. This resulted in a release to an unrestricted area. Though this release was both monitored and controlled, it was not through the normally utilized liquid radwaste system but the release to the unrestricted area did in fact take the same release path to the river. The regulatory discreteness of this release is discussed in the 1996 evaluation of the release, which is documented in the 1 OCFR50.59 Evaluation titled "Unit 1 RHR Service Water: Release of Contaminated Water.1I The requirements of the Radioactive Effluent Controls Program are spelled out in TS 5.5.4. The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) implements this program and it conforms to the requirements of 1 OCFR50.36a for the control of radioactive effluents and for maintaining the doses as low as reasonable achievable. Compliance with TS 5.5.4 regarding liquid releases can be assured by adhering to the requirements of ODCM sections 2.1.2, 2.1.3 and 2.1.4 which respectively provide limits on the concentration of the radioactive material at the point of release to an unrestricted area, the resultant dose to a member of the public from the release, and the necessity of using the radwaste treatment system. MWO 1-96-02845 was worked during the Unit 1 outage to repair the leaks in the U1 RHR 118" Heat Exchanger. The RHR side of the Heat Exchanger was pressurized with helium and a helium detector on the RHRSW side was used to look for the presence of leaks. 8ased on this it was determined that one of the outermost tubes (tube 1-1) was definitely leaking. 1\10 other tubes were identified as definite leakers; however, the eight tubes closest to tube 1-1 were identified as possible leakers. Integrated Technologies, Inc. performed an eddy current inspection of 245 of the tubes, including all of the suspected leakers and surrounding tubes. This inspection also identified tube 1-1 as a leaker. The tube breach is located next to the top support in the outlet leg. The cause is unknown. No other leaking tubes were identified. The conservative decision was made to plug the leaker as well as the eight surrounding tubes. After plugging the tubes a hydrostatic pressure test was conducted at 300 psi and the Heat Exchanger was inspected for signs of leakage. No leakage was noted at this time. The Heat Exchanger was deconned, closed up and placed back in service. The Chemistry Department has sampled and monitored the activity during the operation of the Heat Exchanger. The only radionuclide found in the RHRSW samples for 2010 was on 4/26/10 when the total concentration released was 1.49E-8 JlCi/ml. As shown in the following table, the highest concentrations were found in 1997, when the total concentration released was 1.21 E-5 JlCi/ml. 3.16E-7 4.9SE-7 2.49E-7 2.S3E-7 1.19E-7 4.94E-6 1.12E-6 2.27E-8 2.82E-7 1.99E-7 2.06E-6 7.96E-8 2.24E-7 1.06E-6 C&-.134 2.10E-7 Cs..137 4.43E-7 3.78E-8 1.24E-7 2.76E-8 Fe-59 was identified in one sample (7/18/01). Heat exchanger testing and the analysis result indicate no new leaks to the system. The results of the samples analyzed in 2005 indicate we are monitoring residual contamination from the 1996 leaks. aDCM section 2.1.2 requires that the concentrations of the radioactive materials released be limited to 10 times (10X) the concentrations specified in 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2, with the exception for dissolved or entrained noble gases whose concentration shall be limited to 1.0E-4 )lCi/ml. The following discussion is based on a release duration of 1 minute, a release volume 4,000 gallons, a total dilution of only 10,000 gallons, and the radionuclide concentrations 1997. This is a very conservative estimate, since credit for the additional dilution provided the circulating water flume was not taken into consideration and the activity from 1997 higher with more radionuclides. The sum of the ratios of the concentration of each in the mixture to its effluent concentration limit (ECl) was 1.15. The sum of the ECl must be less than ten <<10) to ensure that the concentration limit for the mixture is exceeded. As can be seen, the sum is much less that ten. (1 OCFR20 Appendix 8 states the sum of the fractions of the nuclides divided by their effluent concentration limits (ECls) be less than one. Further NRC guidance, Technical Specifications, and the aDCM allow ECls in Appendix B to be increased by a factor of 10. Mathematically this can be achieved by dividing the nuclides by the original 1 OCFR 20 Appendix B ECls and insuring that the sum of the fractions is less than 10. The plant software performs the sum of the ECl fractions and comparisons this way to insure compliance with 10CRF20 limits.} aDCM section 2.1.3 requires that the annual dose to a member of the public, in unrestricted areas, due to liquid releases from each unit be limited to 3 mrem to the total body and 10 mrem to any organ. The dose in any quarter is limited to half of the annual limits. Dose calculations were performed for this release, in accordance with aDCM section 2.4, to evaluate the doses relative to this release. The total body dose was 6.66 E-5 mrem (2.2 E-3 % of its annual limit) and the highest organ dose was 7.39 E-5 mrem to the GI-lU, gastrointestinal track, (7.4 E-4 % of its annual limit). The resultant doses are quite low and essentially do not contribute to the quarterly and/or the annual dose limits. This provides a high degree of assurance that the release in no way presented a threat to the health and safety of a member of the public, even using the very low dilution rate. With a higher dilution value the ECl fraction and the resultant doses are reduced further and become even less significant. aDCM section 2.1.4 requires that the radwaste system be employed to reduce the radioactivity in the liquid waste prior to its discharge whenever the projected dose due to the release would exceed 0.06 mrem to the total body and 0.2 mrem to any organ. As shown in the previous paragraph, the total body dose due to the release of the RHRSW was much less than 0.06 mrem and the maximum organ dose was much less than 0.2 mrem. 1 OCFR20.1302 (b)(l) requires that a licensee show compliance with the annual limit of 100 mrem to any member of the public by demonstrating that certain concentration limits of the effluent at the point of release are not exceeded. This was addressed above in the assessment of aDCM section 2.1.2. 10CFR20.1501 (a}(2}(ii) & (iii) requires the licensee to evaluate the concentration or quantities of radioactive materials and the potential radiological hazard, respectively. The concentrations and quantity of the radioactive materials in the release was evaluated by sampling and analysis as discussed above. The potential radiological hazard was also evaluated by performance of the dose calculations, which would be a result of the release, as discussed above in the assessment of aDeM section 2.1.3. This release does not constitute a Licensee Event Report (lER) based on the following. 10CFR 50.73 (A)(2)(VIII)(8) requires the licensee to report any liquid effluent release which exceeds 20 times the applicable concentration specified in 10CFR20, Appendix 8, Table 2, column 2, at the point of entry into the receiving waters (Le., unrestricted area). This is justified as discussed above in the assessment of aDCM section 2.1.3; it can be seen that the concentrations are much less that the applicable limits. Design Criterion 64 in Appendix A to 1 OCFR50 requires the monitoring of effluent discharge paths. Performance of the sampling and analysis of the RHRSW service water before its release complied with this criterion. Compliance with Appendix I to 1 OCFR50 was assured by adherence to the applicable ODCM sections as discussed above. Furthermore, Appendix I is the bases for one of these ODCM sections. 40CFR190 is concemed with the annual dose to any member of the public due to releases of radioactivity and to radiation from the uranium fuel cycle sources. This is addressed by TS 5.S.4.j and implemented by ODCM section S.1 .2, which states that additional calculation and reporting is required when any of the dose limits as specified in the ODCM sections 2.1.3, 3.1.3, or 3.1.4 are exceeded by a factor of two. This requirement is not applicable for the release based on the doses as discussed above in the assessment of ODCM section 2.1.3. NRC Bulletin 80-10, "Contamination of Nonradioactive Systems and Resulting Potential for Unmonitored, Uncontrolled Releases of Radioactivity to the Environment" lists four actions for the licensee. First: identify the affected systems; the Unit 1 RHR "B" loop was identified. Second: establish a sampling/analysis of monitoring program for the affected systems; this was done. Third: restrict use of the system until the cause of the contamination is identified and corrected, and the system is decontaminated. The release was the result of identifying the leakage, implementation of corrective action and of decontaminating the system. The third action also states, that, if it is considered necessary to continue operation of the system as contaminated, then a 10CFRSO.S9 evaluation must be performed. This was done in 1996. The fourth action calls attention to the regulations to be complied with and states that releases must be monitored and controlled. The release of the RHR service water was sampled and monitored {evaluated} by the sampling and analysis prior to the flush taking place; the release was controlled in the fact that the flush was a planned evolution. Administrative controls and sampling have been established to ensure that any future releases would be within 10CFR20 limits, reference lab Standing Order, SO-HPC-001-0402, and 64CH-SAM-028-0. SOUTHERN E. I. HATCH NUCLEAR UNITS NO. 1 & ANNUAL JANUARY 1, 2010 -DECEMBER 31,2010 APPENDIX B Hatch Nuclear Plant Appendix B CARBON-14 Carbon-14 (C-14) is a naturally-occurring radionuclide with a 5730 year half life. Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount of C-14 in the atmosphere. Nuclear power plants also produce C-14, but the amount is infinitesimal compared to what has been distributed in the environment due to weapons testing and what is produced by natural cosmic ray interactions. As nuclear plants have improved gaseous waste processing systems and improved fuel performance, the percentages of "principal radionuclides" in gaseous effluents have changed, and C-14 has become a larger percentage. "Principal radionuclides" are determined based on public dose contribution or the amount of activity discharged compared to other radionuclides of the same effluent type. In Revision 2 (June 2009) of Regulatory Guide 1.21 (RG 1.21), "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste," the NRC recommended re-evaluating "principal radionuclides" and reporting C-14 as appropriate. In 2010 Radioactive Effluent Release Reports, virtually all U. S. nuclear power plants will report C-14 amounts released and resulting doses to the maximally exposed member of the public. Because C-14 is considered a hard-to-detect radionuclide which must be chemically separated from the effluent stream before it can be measured, RG 1.21 provides the option of calculating the C-14 source term based on power generation. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) developed an accepted methodology for calculating C-14, and published the results in Technical Report 1021106 (December 2010), "Estimation of Carbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents." Evaluation of C-14 in radioactive liquid effluents is not required because the quantity and dose contribution has been determined to be insignificant. At Plant Hatch, the quantity of C-14 released in gaseous effluents in 2010 was estimated to be 14.16 Curies (per unit). Approximately 95% of the C-14 released is in the form of 14C02 and is incorporated into plants through photosynthesis. Ingestion dose results from this pathway. The remaining 5% is estimated to be organic. Both the organic and inorganic forms of C-14 contribute to inhalation dose. A child is the maximally exposed individual, and bone dose is the highest organ dose. Using the dose calculation methodology from the Hatch ODeM, the resulting bone dose to a child located at the controlling receptor location would be 1.59E-01 mrem in a year which is 1.06% of the regulatory limit of 15 mrem per year (per unit) to any organ due to gaseous effluents. The resulting total body dose to a child located at the controlling receptor location would be 3.18E-02 mrem in a year which is 0.21 % of the regulatory limit of 15 mrem per year (per unit) total body dose due to gaseous effluents Edwin I.

1.0 LIQUID
This section contains applicable aDCM limits for liquid effluents as well as the quantities of radioactive liquid effluents released during 2010. These quantities are summarized on a quarterly basis and include any unplanned releases. A tabulation of the total body and organ doses which were calculated in accordance with aDCM 2.4 are presented to show conformance with the limits of aDCM 2.1.3. 1.1 Regulatory Requirements
1.1.1 Concentration
Limits Technical Specifications 5.5.4.b and 5.S.4.c state that the concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS (see aDCM Figure 10-1) shall be limited at all times to ten times the concentrations specified in 10CFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 1.0E-04 uCi/ml total activity. 1.1.2 Dose Limits Technical Specifications S.S.4.d and 5.S.4.e state that the dose or dose commitment to a MEMBER aF THE PUBLIC from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released, from each unit, to UNRESTRICTED AREAS (see aDCM Figure 10-1) shall be limited: a. During any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 1.5 mrem to the total body and to less than or equal to 5 mrem to any organ, and b. During any calendar year to less than or equal to 3 mrem to the total body and to less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ. 1.2 Effluent Concentration Limit (ECL) ECL values used in determining allowable liquid radwaste release rates and concentrations, for principal gamma emitters, 1-131, tritium, Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe 55, are taken from 10CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. A tolerance factor of up to 10 is utilized to allow flexibility in establishing practical monitor setpoints which can accommodate effluent releases at concentrations higher than the ECL values stated in IOCFR20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. For dissolved or entrained noble gases in liquid radwaste, the ECL is 1.0E 04 uCi/ml total activity. For gross alpha in liquid radwaste, the ECL is 2.0E-09 uCi/ml. Furthermore, for all the above radionuclides, or categories of radioactivity, the overall ECL fraction is determined in accordance with 10CFR Part 20, Appendix B. -1
1.3 Measurements
and Approximation of Total Radioactivity The radionuclides listed below are considered when evaluating liquid effluents: MN-54 FE 59 CS CO-58 CO-60 ZN-65 SR-89 SR-90 1.3.1 Total Radioactivity Determination Batch Releases: Representative pre-release grab samples are obtained and analyzed in accordance with ODCM Table 2-3. Isotopic analyses are performed using the computerized pulse height analysis system utilizing high resolution germanium detectors. Isotopic values thus obtained are used for release rate calculations as specified in the ODCM. Only those nuclides that are detected are used in the calculations. All Strontium and Iron-55 samples are sent offsite to the Georgia Power Environmental Laboratory for analysis. Gross beta and gross alpha determinations are made using 2 pi gas flow proportional counters. Tritium determinations are made using liquid scintillation techniques. Dissolved gases are determined employing grab sampling techniques and then counting on the pulse height analyzer. The sample analyses results are used along with the ECL values to determine the ECL fraction for the planned release. The ECL fraction is then used, with the appropriate safety factors, and the expected dilution stream flow, to calculate the maximum permissible release rate and a liquid effluent monitor setpoint. The monitor setpoint is calculated to assure that the limits of the ODCM are not exceeded. A monitor reading in excess of the calculated setpoint will result in automatic termination of the liquid radwaste discharge. Radionuclide concentrations, safety factors, dilution stream flow rate, and liquid effluent radiation monitor calibration factors are used by the computer to generate a pre-release printout. If the release is not permissible, appropriate warnings will be displayed on the computer screen and on the printout. If the release is permissible, it is approved by a Chemistry Technician. The release permit is transferred from the Chemistry Department to the Operations Department for release. When the release is completed, the actual release data are provided to the Chemistry Department. These release data, including release rate and release duration, are input into the computer and a post-release printout is generated. This printout contains the actual release rates, radionuclide concentrations and quantities, dilution flow, and calculated doses to an individual. -2 Continuous Releases: Continuous releases are analogous to batch releases except that they are analyzed on a weekly composite basis in accordance with ODCM Table 2 3. Typically achieved liquid effluent sample analyses minimum detectable concentrations are reported in Table 1 4. 1.3.2 Total Error Estimation The maximum error associated with volume and flow measurements, based upon plant calibration practice is estimated to be + or -10%. The average error associated with counting is estimated to be less than + or -15%. 1.4 Liquid Effluent Release Data Summaries of all radioactive liquid effluents released from Units 1 and 2 during 2010 are presented in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.21 Tables 2A and 2B. Information required by Table 2A is found in this report in Tables 1 lA, I-lB, and 1 lC; Table 2-B information is presented in Tables 1-2A, 1 2B, and 1-2C. Data is presented on a quarterly basis as required by Regulatory Guide 1.21 for all four quarters.

2.0 GASEOUS
EFFLUENTS This section contains applicable ODeM limits for gaseous effluents as well as the quantities of radioactive gaseous effluents released during 2010. These quantities are summarized on a quarterly basis and include any unplanned releases. Tabulations are provided of the offsite air doses calculated in accordance with ODeM 3.4.2 to show conformance with the limits of ODeM 3.1.3, and the offsite organ doses to a member of the public calculated in accordance with ODeM 3.4.3 to show conformance with ODeM 3.1.4. 2.1 Regulatory Requirements The requirements presented in this section are for Unit 1 and Unit 2. 2.1.1 Dose Rate Limits The dose rates due to radioactive materials released in gaseous effluents from the site to areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY shall be limited to the following: For noble gases: Less than or equal to 500 mrem/yr. to the whole body and less than or equal to 3000 mrem/yr. to the skin, and For Iodine-131, Iodine 133,tritium and for all radionuclides in particulate form with half-lives greater than 8 days: Less than or equal to 1500 mrem/yr. to any organ. 2.1.2 Air Doses Due to Noble Gases in Gaseous Releases Technical Specifications 5.5.4.e and 5.5.4.h state that the air dose due to noble gases released in gaseous effluents, from each reactor unit, to areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY (see ODeM Figure 10-1) shall be limited to the following: During any calendar quarter: Less than or equal to 5 mrad for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 10 mrad for beta radiation, and During any calendar year: Less than or equal to 10 mrad for gamma radiation and less than or equal to 20 mrad for beta radiation. -26
2.1.3 Doses
to a Member of the Public Technical Specifications S.S.4.e and S.S.4.i state that the dose to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from 1-131, I 133, tritium, and all radionuclides in particulate form with half lives greater than 8 days in gaseous effluents released, from each reactor unit, to areas at and beyond the SITE BOUNDARY (see ODCM Figure 10-1) shall be limited to the following: During any calendar quarter: Less than or equal to 7.5 mrem to organ, During any calendar year: Less than or equal to 15 mrem to 2.2 Measurements and Approximation of Total Radioactivity The following noble gases are considered in evaluating gaseous effluents: KR-87 XE KR-88 XE-13S XE-133M The following radioiodines and radioactive materials in particulate form are specifically considered in evaluating gaseous effluents: MN-54 FE-59 I CO-58 CO-60 ZN-65 SR-89 SR-90 H -
2.2.1 Sample
collection and Analysis Periodic grab samples from plant effluent streams are analyzed by a computerized pulse height system utilizing high resolution germanium detectors. Samples are obtained and analyzed in accordance with ODCM Table 3-3. Isotopic values thus obtained are used for release rate calculations as specified in ODCM 3.4.2 and ODCM 3.4.3. Only those nuclides which are detected are used in calculations. For radioiodines and iculates, in addition to the nuclides listed above other nuclides with half-lives greater than 8 days which are identified are also considered. Continuous Releases: Continuous sampling is performed on the continuous release points (i.e. the Plant Vent Stack, Containment Purge when in continuous mode, and the Turbine Building Vent). Particulate material is collected by filtration. Periodically these filters are removed and analyzed on the pulse height analyzer to identify and quantify radioact materials collected on the filters. Part filters are then analyzed for gross alpha and strontium as required. All gross alpha, Sr-89 and SR 90 samples are sent offsite to the Georgia Power Environmental Laboratory for analysis. Batch Releases: The processing of batch type releases (from Containment when in batch mode, or Waste Gas Decay Tanks) is analogous to continuous releases, except that the release is not commenced until samples have been obtained and analyzed. Containment Purge batch releases were commenced at FNP beginning in 2006 in order to take advantage of additional decay time for short lived radionuclides. Typically achieved minimum detectable concentrations for gaseous effluent sample analyses are reported in Table 2-6. 2.2.2 Total Quantities of Radioactivity, Dose Rates, and Cumulative Doses The methods for determining release quantities of radioactivity, rates, and cumulative doses -28 2.2.2.1 Fission and Activation Gases The released radioactivity is determined using sample analyses results collected as described in section 2.2.1 and the average release flow rates over the period represented by the collected sample. Dose rates due to noble gases, radioiodines, tritium, and part are calculated (with computer assistance). The calculated dose rates are compared to the dose rate limits spec in ODCM 3.1.2 for noble gases, radioiodine, tritium, and particulates. Dose rate calculation methodology is presented in the ODCM. Beta and gamma doses due to noble gases are calculated for the location in the unrestricted area with the for the highest exposure due to gaseous releases. Air doses are calculated for each release period and cumulative totals are kept for each unit for the calendar quarter and year. Cumulative air doses are compared to the dose limits specified in ODCM 3.1.3. The current percent of the ODCM limits are shown on the printout for each release period. Air dose calculation methodology is presented in the ODCM. 2.2.2.2 Radioiodine, Tritium, and Part Releases Released quantities of radioiodines are determined using the weekly samples and release flow rates for the applicable release points. Radioiodine concentrations are determined by gamma spectroscopy. Release quantities of particulates are determined using the weekly (filter) samples and release flow rates for the applicable release points. Gamma spectroscopy is used to quantify the concentrations of principal gamma emitters. After each , the particulate filters from each applicable vent (plant vent stack and containment purge) are combined, fused, and a strontium separation is performed. Since sample flows and vent flows are almost constant over each quarterly period the filters from each vent can be dissolved together. Decay corrections are performed back to the middle of the quarterly collection period. If Sr 89 or Sr-90 is not detected, MDC's are calculated. Strontium concentrations are input into the compos file of the computer and used for release dose rate and individual dose calculations. Tritium samples are obtained monthly from the Plant Vent Stack, the Containment Purge when in batch mode, and the Turbine Building Vent (and weekly for Containment Purge when in continuous mode) by passing the sample stream through a cold trap or by using the bubble method. The grams of water vapor/cubic meter is measured upstream of the cold trap in order to alleviate the difficulties in determining water vapor collection efficiencies. The tritium samples are analyzed onsite and the results furnished in uCi/ml of water. The tritium concentration in water is converted to the tritium concentration in air and this value is input into the composite file of the computer and used in release, dose rate,and individual dose calculations. -29 Dose rates due to radioiodine, tritium and particulates are calculated for a hypothetical child exposed to the inhalation pathway at the location in the unrestricted area where the potential dose rate is expected to be the highest. Dose rates are calculated, for each release point for each release period, and the dose rates from each release point is compared to the dose rate limits specified in ODCM 3.1.2, allocated for each release point as described in ODCM 3.3.2. Doses to a Member of the Public (individual doses) due to radioiodine, tritium and particulates are calculated for the controlling receptor, which is described in the ODCM. Individual doses are calculated for each release period, and cumulative totals are kept for each unit, for the current calendar quarter and year. Cumulative individual doses are compared to the dose limits specified in ODCM 3.1.4. The current percent of ODCM limits are shown on the printout for each release period. 2.2.2.3 Gross Alpha Release The gross alpha release is computed each month by counting the particulate filters, for each week for gross alpha activity in a proportional counter. highest concentration calculated for any of these weeks is used for the monthly value. This value is input into the composite file of the computer and used for release calculations.
2.2.3 Total
Error Estimation The maximum errors associated with monitor readings, sample flow, vent flow, sample collection, monitor calibration and laboratory procedure are collectively estimated to be: Fission Activation Gases Iodine Particulates 75% 60% 50% The average error associated with counting is estimated to be: Fission Activation Gases Iodine Particulates 19% 28% 20% -30

Effluent Release Data Regulatory Guide 1.21 Tables lA, 1B and 1C are found in this report as Tables 2 lA, 2 1B, 2 1C, 2-2A, 2-2B, 2-2C, 2 3A, 2 3B, and 2-3C. Data are presented on a quarterly basis as required by Regulatory Guide 1.21. To complete Tables 2-1A and 2-1B, the total release for each of the four categories (fission and activation gases, radioiodines, particulates and tritium) was divided by the number of seconds in the quarter to obtain a release rate in uCi/second for each category. However, the percent of the aDCM limits are not applicable because FNP has no curie limit for gaseous releases. Applicable limits are expressed in terms of dose. Noble gases are limited as specified in aDCM 3.1.2. The other three categories (tritium, radioiodines, and particulates) are limited as a group as specified in aDCM 3.1.2. Dose rates due to noble gas releases and due to radioiodines, tritium and particulate releases were calculated as part of the pre-release and release permits. No limits were exceeded for this reporting period. Gross alpha radioactivity is reported in Tables 2 lA, 2-1B and 2 1C as curies released in each quarter. Limits for cumulative beta and gamma air doses due to noble gases are presented in Tables 2-4A and 2-4B along with the percent of aDCM limits. Limits for cumulative doses to an individual due to radioiodines, tritium and particulates are specif in aDCM 3.1.4. Cumulative individual doses are presented in Tables 2 SA and 2 5B along with percent of aDCM limits. -31

Included are changes to the radiological environmental monitoring program sampling locations or dose calculation locations or pathways, including any changes made pursuant to ODCM 4.1.2.2.2 (land use census). 8.2 Description of Changes There was one change to the ODCM during 2010. The Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program (REMP) control sample location for milk, 0714 -Weir Dairy, is no longer able to provide milk samples. This location was removed from the ODCM Table 4-4, REMP Locations, and Figure 4-3, Sampling Locations, o 20 miles. There is no available replacement location at this time. -69 MAJOR CHANGES TO LIQUID, GASEOUS, OR SOLID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS Regulatory Requirements ODCM 7.2.2.7 states in part that, as required by ODCM 2.1.5 and 3.1.6, licensee initiated MAJOR CHANGES TO RADIOACTIVE WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS (liquid and gaseous) shall be reported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in the Annual Radioactive Effluents Release Report covering the period in which the change was reviewed and accepted for implementation. Process Control Program (PCP) B.5.1.2 states that licensee initiated major changes to the solid radioactive waste treatment system shall be reported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in the Annual Radioactive Effluent Release Report the period in which the change was implemented. The discussion of each change shall include the information specified in PCP B.4.1. Description of Major Changes On 4-16-2010 a change to the Process Control Program, 30 Version 17 was approved by the PRB. This change updated guidance for annual reporting of solid waste based on Regulatory Guide 1.21, Revision 2. The change also included corrections to several Technical Specification references to reflect the appropriate sections of the current Technical Specifications. This revision did not result in a change to waste forms produced at FNP. - Farley Nuclear Plant Appendix A CARBON-14 Carbon-14 (C-14) is a naturally-occurring radionuclide with a 5730 year half life. Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount of C-14 in the atmosphere. Nuclear power plants also produce C-14, but the amount is infinitesimal compared to what has been distributed in the environment due to weapons testing and what is produced by natural cosmic ray interactions. As nuclear plants have improved gaseous waste processing systems and improved fuel performance, the percentages of "principal radionuclides" in gaseous effluents have changed, and C-14 has become a larger percentage. "Principal radionuclides" are determined based on public dose contribution or the amount of activity discharged compared to other radionuclides of the same effluent type. In Revision 2 (June 2009) of Regulatory Guide 1.21 (RG 1.21), "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste," the NRC recommended re-evaluating "principal radionuclides" and reporting C-14 as appropriate. In 2010 Radioactive Effluent Release Reports, virtually all U. S. nuclear power plants will report 14 amounts released and resulting doses to the maximally exposed member of the public. Because C-14 is considered a hard-to-detect radionuclide which must be chemically separated from the effluent stream before it can be measured, RG 1.21 provides the option of calculating the C-14 source term based on power generation. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) developed an accepted methodology for calculating C-14, and published the results in Technical Report 1021106 (December 2010), "Estimation of Carbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents." Evaluation of C-14 in radioactive liquid effluents is not required because the quantity and dose contribution has been determined to be insignificant. At Plant Farley, the quantity of C-14 released in gaseous effluents in 2010 was estimated to be 9.28 Curies (per unit). Approximately 30% of the C-14 released is in the form of 14C02 and is incorporated into plants through photosynthesis. Ingestion dose results from this pathway. The remaining 70% is estimated to be organic. Both the organic and inorganic forms ofC-14 contribute to inhalation dose. A child is the maximally exposed individual, and bone dose is the highest organ dose. Using the dose calculation methodology from the Farley ODCM, the resulting bone dose to a child located at the controlling receptor location would be 4.IIE-01 mrem in a year which is 2.74% of the regulatory limit of 15 mrem per year (per unit) to any organ due to gaseous effluents. The resulting total body dose to a child located at the controlling receptor location would be 8.21E-02 mrem in a year which is 0.54% of the regulatory limit of 15 mrem per year (per unit) total body dose due to gaseous effluents. -71 Edwin I.

1.1.1 Concentration
Limits In accordance with Technical Specification 5.5.4.b, the concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS shall be limited at all times to ten times the concentrations specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 1 E-04 IlCi/ml total activity. 1.1.2 Dose Limits The dose or dose comrnitment to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released, from each unit, to UNRESTRICTED AREAS shall be limited as follows: During any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 1.5 mrems to the whole body and to less than or equal to 5 mrems to any organ, and During any calendar year to less than or equal to 3 mrems to the whole body and to less than or equal to 10 rnrems to any organ. 1.2 Effluent Concentration Limit (ECL) ECl values used for determining the allowable liquid radwaste release rates and concentrations for the principal gamma emitters, 1-131, tritium, Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55 are taken from 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. A tolerance factor of up to 10 is utilized to allow flexibility in establishing practical monitor set points which can accommodate effluent releases at concentrations higher than the ECl values stated in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. For dissolved or entrained noble gases in liquid radwaste, the ECl is 1 E-04 IlCilml total activity. For gross alpha in liquid radwaste, the ECl is 2 E-09 IlCi/ml. For all the above radionuclides or categories of radioactivity, the overall ECl fraction is determined in accordance with 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B. The method utilizing the ECl fraction to determine release rates and liquid radwaste effluent radiation monitor set points is described in Subsection 1.3 of this report. Page 8 of 87
1.3 Measurements
and Approximations of Total Radioactivity
1.3.1 Total
Radioactivity Determination Prior to the release of any tank containing liquid radwaste, and following the required recirculation, samples are collected and analyzed in accordance with the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) Table 2-3 "Radioactive Liquid Waste Sampling and Analysis Program". A sample from each tank which is planned for release is analyzed for principal gamma emitters, 1-131, and dissolved and entrained noble gases by gamma spectroscopy. Monthly and quarterly composites are prepared for analysis by extracting aliquots from each sample taken from the tanks, which are released. Liquid radwaste sample analyses are performed as follows: MEASUREMENT METHOD Gamma Isotopic Each Batch Gamma Spectroscopy with computerized data reduction.

1.3.1 Total
Radioactivity Determination cont'd Gamma isotopic measurements are performed using germanium detectors with a resolution of 2.1 keV or lower. A peak search of the resulting gamma ray spectrum is performed by the computer system. Energy and net count data for all significant peaks are determined, and a quantitative reduction or MDC calculation is performed. This ensures that the MDC's are met for the nuclides specified in ODCM Chapter 10 (Le., Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Mo-99, Cs-134, Cs-137, Ce-141 and Ce-144). The quantitative calculations, corrections for counting time, decay time, sample volume, sample geometry, detector efficiency, baseline counts, branching ratio and MDC calculations, are made based on the counts at the location in the spectrum where the peak for that radionuclide would be located, if present. Tritium, Gross Alpha, Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55 are, in some cases, analyzed offsite. ECl fraction is determined using radionuclide concentrations of a tank planned for release, the most current results available for tritium, gross alpha, Sr-89, Sr-90 and Fe-55 and the corresponding ECl values. This ECl fraction is used, with appropriate safety factors, tolerance factors, and the minimum assured dilution stream flow to calculate maximum permissible release rates and a liquid effluent monitor setpoint. The monitor setpoint is calculated to assure that the limits of the Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM) are not exceeded. A monitor reading in excess of the calculated setpoint results in an automatic termination of the liquid radwaste discharge. Liquid effluent discharge is also automatically terminated if the dilution stream flow rate falls below the minimum assured dilution flow rate used in the setpoint calculations and established as a setpoint on the dilution stream flow monitor. Radionuclide concentrations, safety factors, dilution stream flow rate, and liquid effluent radiation monitor calibrations are entered into the computer and a release printout is generated. If the release is not permissible, appropriate warnings will be displayed on the computer screen. If the release is permissible, it is approved by the Chemistry Department and sent to the Operations Department for approval and release. When the release is completed, the necessary data from the release (i.e., release volume, etc.) are provided by the Operations Department to the Chemistry Department. These data are input to the computer and a post-release printout is generated. The post release printout contains the actual release rates, release concentrations and quantities, actual dilution flow, and calculated doses to an individual. Typically achieved liquid effluent sample analyses minimum detectable concentrations are reported in Table 1-4. Page 10 of 87
1.3.2 Total
Error Estimation The total or maximum error associated with the effluent measurement includes the cumulative errors resulting from the total operation of sampling and measurement. Because it may be very difficult to assign error terms for each parameter affecting the final measurement, detailed statistical evaluation of error is not suggested. The objective should be to obtain an overall estimate of the error associated with measurements of radioactive materials released in liquid effluents.

2.2 Measurements
and Approximations of Total Radioactivity
2.2.1 Sample
Collection and Analysis Gaseous Effluents at the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant are currently confined to five paths: plant vents (Unit 1 and Unit 2), the condenser air ejector, the steam packing exhauster systems (Unit 1 and Unit 2), and the Radwaste Processing Facility. Waste gas decay tanks are batch released through the Unit 1 plant vent. The containment purges are released through their respective plant vents. Containment atmosphere is also released via the containment equipment hatch during periods when the equipment hatch is open with containment purge/vent being stopped. Approval was granted by the NRC to open the equipment hatch during fuel movement; a release permit is generated when the equipment hatch is opened and the containment exhaust fan is not discharging to the plant vent. Any detected activity in the containment equipment hatch permit is included in the Ground Release Table of the effluent report. All of the paths with the exception of the RPF can be continuously monitored for gaseous radioactivity. The RPF is equipped with an integrated-type sample collection device for collecting particulates. Plant vent, containment, steam jet air ejector, steam-packing exhauster are equipped with an integrated-type sample collection device for collecting particulates and iodines. During this reporting period, there were no continuous radioactive releases through the condenser air ejector and the steam packing exhauster system vents. Batch Waste Gas Decay Tank releases are analyzed for noble gases before each release. The containment atmosphere is analyzed for noble gases prior to each release and for tritium at least on a monthly basis. Sample analyses results and release flow rates form the basis for calculating released quantities of radionuclide specific radioactivity, dose rates associated with gaseous releases, and cumulative doses for the current quarter and year. With each release period and batch release, radioactivity, dose rates, and cumulative doses are calculated. Cumulative dose results are tabulated, along with the percent of the aDeM limits for each release for the current quarter and year. Typically achieved minimum detectable concentrations for gaseous effluent sample analyses are reported in Table 2-6. Page 36 of87
2.2.2 Total
Quantities of Radioactivity, Dose Rates, and Cumulative Doses 2.2.2.1 2.2.2.2 2.2.2.3 The methods for determining release quantities of radioactivity, dose rates, and cumulative doses are as follows: Fission and Activation Gases The released radioactivity is determined from sample analyses results collected as described above and average release flow rates over the period represented by the collected sample. Dose rates due to noble gases, radioiodines, tritium, and particulates are calculated. Calculated dose rates are compared to the dose rate limits specified in aDCM 3.1.2 for noble gases, radioiodines, tritium, and particulates. Dose rate calculation methodology is presented in the aDCM. Beta and gamma air doses due to noble gases are calculated for the location in the unrestricted area with the potential for the highest exposure due to gaseous releases. Air doses are calculated for each release period and cumulative totals are kept for each unit for the calendar quarter and year. Cumulative air doses are compared with the dose limits specified in aDCM 3.1.3. Current percent of the aDCM limits are shown on the printout for each release period. Air dose calculation methodology is presented in the aDCM. Radioiodines, Tritium and Particulate Releases The released quantities of radioiodines, tritium and particulates are determined using the weekly samples and release flow rates for the two plant vent release points. After each quarter, the particulate filters from each plant vent are combined, for strontium analysis. Strontium concentrations are input to the composite file of the computer to be used for release dose rate and individual dose calculations. Doses to a Member of the Public due to radioiodines, tritium and particulates are calculated for the controlling receptor, which is described in Table 3-70f the ODCM. Doses are calculated for each release period, and cumulative totals are kept for each unit for the current calendar quarter and year. Cumulative doses are compared to the dose limits specified in aDCM 3.1.4. Current percent of aDCM limits are shown in this report for each release period. Gross Alpha Release The gross alpha release is calculated each month by counting the particulate filters for each week for gross alpha activity. The four or five weeks' numbers are then recorded on a data sheet and the activity is summed at the end of the month. This concentration is used for release calculations. Page 37 of 87
2.2.3 Total
Error Estimation The total or maximum error associated with the effluent measurement will include the cumulative errors resulting from the total operation of sampling and measurement. Because it may be very difficult to assign error terms for each parameter affecting the final measurement, detailed statistical evaluation of error are not suggested. The objective should be to obtain an overall estimate of the error associated with measurements of radioactive materials released in liquid and gaseous effluents and solid waste. Estimated errors are based on errors in counting equipment calibration, counting statistics, vent-flow rates, vent sample flow rates, non-steady release rates, chemical yield factors, and sample losses for such items as charcoal cartridges. Fission and activation total release was calculated from sample analysis results and release point flow rates.

Data are presented on a quarterly basis as required by Regulatory Guide 1.21. To complete table 2-1A, and 2-1 B, the total release for each of the four categories (fission and activation gases, iodines, particulates, and tritium) was divided by the number of seconds in the quarter to obtain a release rate in IlCi/second for each category. However, the percent of the ODCM limits are not applicable because VEGP has no curie limits for gaseous releases. Applicable limits are expressed in terms of dose. Noble gases are limited as specified in ODeM 3.1.2. The other three categories (tritium, radioiodines, and particulates) are limited as a group as specified in ODCM 3.1.2. Dose rates due to noble gas releases and due to radioiodines, tritium, and particulate releases were calculated as part of the pre-release and post-release permits. No limits were exceeded for this reporting period. G ross alpha radioactivity is reported in Table 2-1 A, and 2-1 B as cu ries released in each quarter. Limits for cumulative beta and gamma air doses due to noble gases are specified in ODCM 3.1.3. Cumulative air doses are presented in Table 2-4A, and 2-4B along with the percent of the ODCM limits. Page 39 of87 Limits for cumulative doses to a Member of the Public due to radioiodines, tritium and particulates, are specified in ODCM 3.1.4. Cumulative doses to a Member of the Public are presented in Table 2-SA, and 2-S8 along with percent of ODCM limits. 2.4 Radiological Impact Due to Gaseous Releases Dose rates due to the release of noble gases were calculated for the site in accordance with ODCM 3.4.1.1. Dose rates due to radioiodines, tritium, and particulates in gaseous releases were calculated in accordance with ODCM 3.4.1.2. Dose rates were calculated as part of pre-release and post release permits, no limits were exceeded for this reporting period. Cumulative air doses due to noble gas releases were calculated for each unit in accordance with ODCM 3.4.2. These results are presented in Tables 2-4A and 2-48. Cumulative doses to a Member of the Public were calculated for each unit in accordance with ODCM 3.4.3. These results are presented in Tables 2-SA and 2-58. Dose rates and doses were calculated using the methodology presented in the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant Offsite Dose Calculation Manual. 2.5 Gaseous Effluents -Batch Releases Other data pertinent to batch releases of radioactive gaseous effluent from Unit 1 and Unit 2 are listed in Table 2-7A and 2-7B. 2.6 Gaseous Effluents -Abnormal Releases There was one abnormal release during this period. On 10/12/2010, after reviewing Waste Gas Decay Tank pressures, an Operator found that the in service tank GDT #2 pressure had lowered from the day shift to the night shift round by 25 psig after isolation. HP/Chemistry review of the Unit 2 Plant Vent Monitor trends show that radiation levels increased when Waste Gas was placed on recirculation and levels decreased after closure of the flow path. Even though the levels were elevated, the entire release was monitored out of the plant vent stack. Furthermore, none of the radiation monitors for this flow path went into alarm at the time of the release nor subsequently. The Operators were directed to shutdown Waste Gas Processing to allow Chemistry to obtain a sample. Waste Gas Decay Tank #2 was sampled on 10/12/2010 at 045S. Release permit G-201 01 011-281-8 was generated to account for this unplanned release. There Page 40 of 87 were no limits exceeded and there was no reason for the NRC to be not notified. The duration of this release was 355 minutes, from 10/11/2010 at 1750 to 10/11/2010 at 2345. A volume of 1 .02E+03 ft3 was released. The release was attributed to two factors: 1) A diaphragm valve (21902U4162) was not fully closed during recirculation of a waste gas decay tank because of the travel stop repositioning over time. Travel stop drift is common in high vibration systems for this model of Hills-McCanna diaphragm valve 2) The gas trap for a phase separator did not function properly. Remedial actions include (1) reevaluating the manufacturer's suggestion not to perform maintenance the Hills-McCanna diaphragm valve, (2) re-adjusting the diaphragm valve to close completely, (3) revising procedures to address the repositioning of travel stops for diaphragm valves over time, (4) using a medium strength "thread locker" that is more suitable for the size of the travel stop bolt, it will prevent innate travel stop repositioning while allowing for readjustment without a special tool (5) additionally, a step should will be included to match mark the valve stem after performance of the travel stop repositioning section. The system operating procedure will be changed to provide an adequate warning of gas trap design and installation shortcomings, refurbish the Armstrong gas trap 21902Z6003.

8.2 Description
of Changes Changes were made to the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant ODCM for the period January 1,2010 through December 31,2010. Revision 27 in October 2010. A complete copy of the ODCM will be included with this report with changes identified by bars in the right hand margin of the document. Revision 27, October 2010 The following were revised to provide the option of recording the local effluent radiation monitor (if functional) on a scheduled frequency rather than sampling radioactive effluents when remote effluent radiation monitor indication is not available in the control room. Table 2-1 Radioactive Liquid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation, Action 37, Action 38, Action 39. Table 3-1 Radioactive Gaseous Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation, Action 45, Action 47, Action 48, Action 51. Also, in Section 3.3.6, Setpoints for Particulate and Iodine Monitors, the reference to ARE-13256 was deleted. This monitor was in the Dry Active Waste (DAW) Building and was removed when the building was removed during construction of Units 3 and 4. Page 82 of 87
9.0 Major
Changes to liquid, Gaseous, or Solid Radwaste Treatment Systems 9.1 Regulatory Requirements ODCM 7.2.2.7 states in part: As required by Sections 2.1 .5 and 3.1.6, licensee initiated MAJOR CHANGES TO RADIOACTIVE WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS (liquid and gaseous) shall be reported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report covering the period in which the change was reviewed and accepted for implementation. Note 1: In lieu of inclusion in the Radioactive Effluents Release Report, this same information may be submitted as part of the annual FSAR update. PCP 12.1 states in part: licensee major initiated changes to the solid radioactive waste treatment system shall be reported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report for the period in which the change was implemented.
9.2 Description
of Major Changes Gaseous Radwaste System There were no major changes to the gaseous radwaste systems in the 2010 assessment period. liquid Radwaste System Major changes to the liquid radwaste facilities are those that contribute to significant changes in release; i.e., either decreases or increases in release volume or activity/dose. This is to indicate that no major changes to the liquid radwaste systems occurred during the 2010 assessment period. Solid Radwaste System There were no major changes to the solid radwaste systems in the 2010 assessment period. Page 83 of 87 10.0 Corrections to Previous Reports From a 2009 Assessment, the following 2 errors were noted: 1 )The 2009 Annual Radioactive Release Report section 7.1.2.d. states that Unit 2 RE-12444C Plant vent noble gas activity monitor was determined to be inoperable and not corrected within the specified time requirement of aDCM section 3.1.1. The requirements of aDCM Actions 47 and 48 were not required due to the alternate monitor being continuously operable. The annual report stated the alternate monitor as Unit 1 RE-12442C instead of Unit 2 RE-12442C and the CR states from the control room log the alternate monitor was 2 12442. The statement was corrected to say, "The requirements of aDCM Action Statements 47and 48 were not required due to alternate monitor Unit 2 12442C being continually operable." 2) During the review of the Annual Radioactive Release Report for 2008 Table 3A-Gaseous Effluents-Ground Level Releases for Unit ane the first quarter Batch mode contains a Tritium value with a No Nuclides Found as the Nuclide released. The amount released and nuclide is correctly identified in Table 2-3C for Unit: Site. Table2-3A Gaseous Effluents -Ground Level Releases for Unit 1 has been corrected to identify H-3 as the isotope. The affected pages, in their entirety are included in Attachment 1 for this report. Revision bars reflect the changes made. Page 84 of8? Vogtle Electric Generating Plant Appendix A CARBON-l 4 Carbon-14 (C-14) is a naturally-occurring radionuclide with a 5730 year half life. Nuclear weapons testing in the 1950s and 1960s significantly increased the amount ofC-14 in the atmosphere. Nuclear power plants also produce C-14, but the amount is infinitesimal compared to what has been distributed in the environment due to weapons testing and what is produced by natural cosmic ray interactions. As nuclear plants have improved gaseous waste processing systems and improved fuel performance, the percentages of "principal radionuclides" in gaseous effluents have changed, and C-14 has become a larger percentage. "Principal radionuclides" are determined based on public dose contribution or the amount of activity discharged compared to other radionuclides of the same effluent type. In Revision 2 (June 2009) of Regulatory Guide 1.21 (RG 1.21), "Measuring, Evaluating, and Reporting Radioactive Material in Liquid and Gaseous Effluents and Solid Waste," the NRC recommended re-evaluating "principal radionuclides" and reporting C-14 as appropriate. In 2010 Radioactive Effluent Release Reports, virtually all U. S. nuclear power plants will report C-14 amounts released and resulting doses to the maximally exposed member of the public. Because C-14 is considered a hard-to-detect radionuclide which must be chemically separated from the effluent stream before it can be measured, RG 1.21 provides the option of calculating the C-14 source term based on power generation. The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) developed an accepted methodology for calculating C-14, and published the results in Technical Report 1021106 (December 2010), "Estimation of Carbon-14 in Nuclear Power Plant Gaseous Effluents." Evaluation of C-14 in radioactive liquid effluents is not required because the quantity and dose contribution has been determined to be insignificant. At Plant Vogtle, the quantity of C-14 released in gaseous effluents in 2010 was estimated to be 12.08 Curies (per unit). Approximately 30% of the C-14 released is in the form of 14C02 and is incorporated into plants through photosynthesis. Ingestion dose results from this pathway. The remaining 70% is estimated to be organic. Both the organic and inorganic forms of C-14 contribute to inhalation dose. A child is the maximally exposed individual, and bone dose is the highest organ dose. Using the dose calculation methodology from the Vogtle ODCM, the resulting bone dose to a child located at the controlling receptor location would be 8,46E-02 mrem in a year which is 0.56% of the regulatory limit of 15 mrem per year (per unit) to any organ due to gaseous effluents. The resulting total body dose to a child located at the controlling receptor location would be 1.69E-02 mrem in a year which is 0.11 % of the regulatory limit of 15 mrem per year (per unit) total body dose due to gaseous effluents. Page 85 of87 ATTACHMENT 1 2009 Annual Radioactive Release Report section 7.1.2.d. 2RE-12444C, Plant vent noble gas activity monitor, was determined to be inoperable and not corrected within the specified time requirement of ODCM Section 3.1 .1 . Condition report 2009100357 was written following unsuccessful channel calibration surveillance under WO 20900651 OJ. The requirements of ODCM Actions 47 and 48 have not been required due to alternate mon itor 2RE-12442C being continuously operable. The inoperability was not corrected within the specified time requirement because of equipment obsolescence. WO 2090065101 documents efforts to procure replacement parts. Repair is scheduled for spring 2010.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION The Offsite Dose Calculation Manual is a supporting document of the Technical Specifications. As such, it describes the methodology and parameters to be used in the calculation of offsite doses due to radioactive liquid and gaseous effluents, and in the calculation of liquid and gaseous effluent monitoring instrumentation alarm setpoints. In addition, it contains the following: The controls required by the Technical Specifications, governing the effluent and radiological environmental monitoring Schematics of liquid and gaseous radwaste effluent treatment systems, which include designation of release points to UNRESTRICTED AREAS. A list and maps indicating the specific sample locations for the Environmental Monitoring Specifications and descriptions of the information that must be included in the Annual Radiological Environmental Operating Report and the Radioactive Effluent Release Report required by the Technical Specifications. The ODCM will be maintained at the plant for use as a reference guide and training document of accepted methodologies and calculations. Changes in the calculational methods or parameters will be incorporated into the ODCM in order to ensure that it represents current methodology in all applicable areas. Any computer software used to perform the calculations described will be maintained current with the ODCM. Equations and methods used in the ODCM are based on those presented in NUREG-0133 (Reference 1), in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (References 2 and 3), in Regulatory Guide 1.111 (References 4 and 5), and in Regulatory Guide 1.113 (Reference 6).

CHAPTER LIQUID
2.1 LIMITS
OF OPERATION The following Liquid Effluent Controls implement requirements established by Technical Specifications Section 5.0. Terms printed in all capital letters are defined in Chapter 10. 2.1.1 Liguid Effluent Monitoring Instrumentation Control In accordance with Technical Specification 5.5.4.a, the radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channels shown in Table 2-1 shall be OPERABLE with their alarm/trip setpoints set to ensure that the limits specified in Section 2.1.2 are not exceeded. The alarm/trip setpoints of these channels shall be determined in accordance with Section 2.3. 2.1.1.1 Applicability This limit applies at all times. 2.1.1.2 Actions With a radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channel alarm/trip setpoint less conservative than required by the above control, immediately suspend the release of radioactive liquid effluents monitored by the affected channel, declare the channel inoperable, or change the setpoint to a conservative value. With less than the minimum number of radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channels OPERABLE, take the ACTION shown in Table 2-1. Restore the inoperable instrumentation to OPERABLE status within 30 days and, if unsuccessful, explain in the next Radioactive Effluent Release Report pursuant to Section 7.2 why this inoperability was not corrected in a timely manner. This control does not affect shutdown requirements or MODE changes. 2.1.1.3 Surveillance Requirements Each radioactive liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation channel shall be demonstrated OPERABLE by performance of the CHANNEL CHECK, SOURCE CHECK, CHANNEL CALIBRATION, and CHANNEL OPERATIONAL TEST (COT) operations at the frequencies shown in Table 2-2. 2-1 Version 24 01/10 2.1.1.4 Basis The radioactive liquid effluent instrumentation is provided to monitor and control, as applicable, the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents during actual or potential releases of liquid effluents.

2.1.2 Liquid
Effluent Concentration Control In accordance with Technical Specifications 5.5.4.b and 5.5.4.c, the concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS (see Figure 10-1) shall be limited at all times to ten times the concentrations specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2 for radionuclides other than dissolved or entrained noble gases. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 1 x 10-4 IlCilmL total activity. 2.1.2.1 Applicability This limit applies at all times 2.1.2.2 Actions With the concentration of radioactive material released in liquid effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS exceeding the limits stated in Section 2.1.2, immediately restore the concentration to within the stated limits. This control does not affect shutdown requirements or MODE changes. 2.1.2.3 Surveillance Requirements The radioactivity content of each batch of radioactive liquid waste shall be determined by sampling and analysis in accordance with Table 2-3. The results of radioactive analyses shall be used with the calculational methods in Section 2.3 to assure that the concentration at the point of release is maintained within the limits of Section 2.1.2. 2.1 .2.4 Basis This control is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be less than ten times the concentration levels specified in 10 CFR 20, Appendix B, Table 2, Column 2. This limitation provides additional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water in UNRESTRICTED AREAS will result in exposures within (1) the Section ILA design objectives of Appendix 1,10 CFR 50, to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC, and (2) the limits of 10 CFR 20.1301 to the population. The concentration limit for dissolved or entrained noble gases is based upon the assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radioisotope and its MPC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) Publication 2 (1959). The resulting concentration of 2 x 10-4 was then multiplied by the ratio of the effluent concentration limit for Xe-135, stated in Appendix B, Table 2, Column 1 of 10 CFR 20 (paragraphs 20.1001 to 20.2401), to the I\t1PC for Xe-135, stated in Appendix B, Table II, Column 1 of 10 CFR 20 (paragraphs 20.1 to 20.601), to obtain the limiting concentration of 1 x 10-4 Il Ci/mL. 2-7 Version 24 01/10

2.1.3 Liquid
Effluent Dose Control In accordance with Technical Specifications S.S.4.d and S.S.4.e, the dose or dose commitment to a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC from radioactive materials in liquid effluents released, from each unit, to UNRESTRICTED AREAS (see Figure 10-1) shall be limited: a. During any calendar quarter to less than or equal to 1.S mrem to the total body and to less than or equal to S mrem to any organ, and b. During any calendar year to less than or equal to 3 mrem to the total body and to less than or equal to 10 mrem to any organ. 2.1.3.1 Applicability These limits apply at all times. 2.1.3.2 Actions With the calculated dose from the release of radioactive materials in liquid effluents exceeding any of the limits of Section 2.1.3, prepare and submit to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission within 30 days, pursuant to 10 CFR SO.4, a Special Report which identifies the cause(s) for exceeding the limit(s); defines the corrective actions to be taken to reduce the releases; and defines the proposed corrective actions to be taken to assure that subsequent releases will be in compliance with the limits of Section 2.1.3. This control does not affect shutdown requirements or MODE changes. 2.1.3.3 Surveillance Requirements At least once per 31 days, cumulative dose contributions from liquid effluents for the current calendar quarter and the current calendar year shall be determined, for each unit, in accordance with Section 2.4. 2.1.3.4 Basis This control is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.A, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part SO. The limits stated in Section 2.1.3 implement the guides set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I. The ACTIONS stated in Section 2.1.3.2 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 material in liquid effluents will be kept "as low as is reasonably achievable." Also, for fresh water sites with drinking water supplies that can be potentially affected by plant operations, there is reasonable assurance that the operation of the facility will not result in radionuclide concentrations in the finished drinking water that are in excess of the requirements of 40 CFR Part 141. The dose calculations in Section 2.4 implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I, which state that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data, such that the actual exposure of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated. The equations specified in Section 2.4 for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive materials in liquid effluents are consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109 (Reference
- 3) and Regulatory Guide 1.113 (Reference 6). 2-10 Version 24 01/10
This control applies to the release of liquid effluents from each unit at the site. The liquid effluents from shared LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS are to be proportioned between the units. 2.1.4 Liquid Radwaste Treatment System Control In accordance with Technical Specification 5.5.4.f, the LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM shall be OPERABLE. The appropriate portions of the system shall be used to reduce radioactivity in liquid wastes prior to their discharge when the projected doses due to the liquid effluent, from each unit, to UNRESTRICTED AREAS (see Figure 10-1) would exceed 0.06 mrem to the total body or 0.2 mrem to any organ of a MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC in 31 days. 2.1.4.1 Applicability This limit applies at all times. 2.1.4.2 Actions With radioactive liquid waste being discharged without treatment and in excess of the above limits and any portion of the LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM not in operation, prepare and submit to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission within 30 days pursuant to 10 CFR 50.4, a Special Report which includes the following information: Explanation of why liquid radwaste was being discharged without treatment, identification of any inoperable equipment or subsystems and the reason for inoperability, Action(s) taken to restore the inoperable equipment to OPERABLE status, and c. Summary description of action(s) taken to prevent a recurrence. This control does not affect shutdown requirements or MODE changes. 2.1.4.3 Surveillance Requirements Doses due to liquid releases to UNRESTRICTED AREAS shall be projected at least once per 31 days, in accordance with Section 2.5, during periods in which the LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMs are not being fully utilized. The LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM shall be demonstrated OPERABLE: by meeting the controls of Sections 2.1.2 and 2.1.3, or by operating the LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM equipment for at least 15 minutes at least once per 92 days unless the LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM equipment has been utilized to process radioactive liquid effluents during the previous 92 days. Version 24 01/10
2.1.4.4. Basis The OPERABILITY ofthe LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM ensures that this system will be available for use whenever liquid effluents require treatment prior to release to the UNRESTRICTED AREAS. The requirement that the appropriate portions 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 control 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 11.0 of Appendix I 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 dose design objectives set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for liquid effluents. MAJOR CHANGES TO LIQUID RADIOACTIVE WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS Licensee initiated MAJOR CHANGES TO LIQUID RADIOACTIVE WASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMS: Shall be reported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in the Radioactive Effluent Release Report for the period in which the change was implemented, in accordance with Section 7.2.2.7. Shall become effective upon review by the Plant Review Board and approval by the Vice President-Plant. Version 24 01/10
2.2 LIQUID
RADWASTE TREATMENT The Farley Nuclear Plant is located on the west bank of the Chattahoochee River approximately 35 river miles above the point where it empties into Lake Seminole. There are two pressurized water reactors on the site. Each unit is served by a completely separate LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM that is illustrated schematically in Figure 2-1. However. both units share a common demineralizer bed system for processing liquids prior to release from the site. As shown in Figure 2-2. the Steam Generator Blowdown System is a separate entity. Liquid discharge pathways are shown in Figure 2-3. All liquid radwastes treated by the LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM are collected in 5.000-gallon Waste Monitor Tanks for sampling and analysis prior to release. Prior to sampling. each waste monitor tank is recirculated for a minimum of two tank content volumes. to ensure that a representative sample can be taken from the tank. Releases from the waste monitor tanks are routed to the Service Water discharge line (which provides dilution prior to release to the UNRESTRICTED AREA). and thence to the Chattahoochee River. The Service Water discharge line also receives input from the Cooling Tower Blowdown and the Turbine Building Sump. Although no significant quantities of radioactivity are expected in the steam generator blowdown processing system, this effluent pathway is monitored as a precautionary measure. The monitors serving this pathway provide for automatic termination of release in the event that radioactivity is detected above predetermined levels. Like the LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEMs, the Steam Generator Blowdown Systems discharge to the Service Water discharge line. One potential release pathway. the Turbine Building Sump discharge. is not monitored during release. but is sampled regularly during discharges. Sampling and analysis of releases via this pathway must be sufficient to ensure that the liquid effluent dose limits specified in Section 2.1.3 are not exceeded. 2-13 Version 24 01/10

2.3 LIQUID
EFFLUENT MONITOR SETPOINTS
2.3.1 General
Provisions Regarding Setpoints Liquid monitor setpoints calculated in accordance with the methodology presented in this section will be regarded as upper bounds for the actual high alarm setpoints. That is, a lower value for the high alarm setpoint may be established or retained on the monitor, if desired. Intermediate level setpoints should be established at an appropriate level to give sufficient warning prior to reaching the high alarm setpoint. If no release is planned for a particular pathway, or if there is no detectable activity in the planned release, the monitor setpoint should be established as close to background as practical to prevent spurious alarms, and yet alarm should an inadvertent release occur. Two basic setpoint methodologies are presented below. For radwaste system discharge monitors, setpoints are determined to assure that the limits of Section 2.1.2 are not exceeded. For monitors on streams that are not expected to contain significant radioactivity, the purpose of the monitor setpoints is to cause an alarm on low levels of radioactivity, and to terminate the release where this is possible. Section 2.1.1 establishes the requirements for liquid effluent monitoring instrumentation. Table 2-4 lists the monitors for which each of the setpoint methodologies is applicable. 2-17 Version 24 01/10

2.3.2 Setpoints
for Radwaste System Discharge Monitors 2.3.2.1 Overview of Method LIQUID RADWASTE TREATMENT SYSTEM effluent line radioactivity monitors are intended to provide alarm and automatic termination of release prior to exceeding the limits specified in Section 2.1.2 at the pOint of release of the diluted effluent into the UNRESTRICTED AREA. Therefore, their alarm/trip setpoints are established to ensure compliance with the following equation (equation adapted from Addendum to Reference 1): c*J-=-...::.-..."..< TF .C EeL (2.1)F+J where: C ECL the Effluent Concentration Limit corresponding to the mix of radionuclides in the effluent being considered for discharge, in JlCi/mL. c the setpoint, in JlCi/ml, of the radioactivity monitor measuring the concentration of radioactivity in the effluent line prior to dilution and subsequent release. The setpoint represents a concentration which, if exceeded, could result in concentrations exceeding the limits of Section 2.1.2 in the UNRESTRICTED AREA. f the effluent flowrate at the location of the radioactivity monitor, in gpm. F the dilution stream f10wrate which can be assured prior to the release point to the UNRESTRICTED AREA, in gpm. A predetermined dilution flowrate must be assured for use in the calculation of the radioactivity monitor setpoint. TF the tolerance factor selected to allow flexibility in the establishment of a practical monitor setpoint which could accommodate effluent releases at concentrations higher than the ECl values stated in 10 CFR 20, Appendix S, Table 2, Column 2; the tolerance factor must not exceed a value of 10. While equation (2.1) shows the relationships of the critical parameters that determine the setpoint, it cannot be applied practically to a mixture of radionuclides with different Effluent Concentration Limits (ECls). For a mixture of radionuclides, equation (2.1) is satisfied in a practicable manner based on the calculated ECl fraction of the radionuclide mixture and the dilution stream f10wrate that can be assured for the duration of the release (F d), by calculating the maximum permissible effluent flowrate (f m) and the radioactivity monitor setpoint (c). The setpoint method presented below is applicable to the release of only one tank of liquid radwaste per reactor unit at a given time. Liquid releases must be controlled administratively to ensure that this condition is met; otherwise, the setpoint method may not ensure that the limits of Section 2.1.2 are not exceeded. Version 24 01/10
2.3.2.2 Setpoint Calculation Steps Step Determine the radionuclide concentrations in the liquid waste being considered for release in accordance with the sampling and analysis requirements of Section 2.1.2. To ensure that sample analyses are based on samples that are representative of the waste being sampled. the liquid volume must be mixed thoroughly prior to sampling. Mixing may be accomplished by any method that has been demonstrated to achieve sufficient mixing for representative sampling. The Waste Monitor Tanks are recirculated for a minimum of two tank content volumes prior to sampling. The Service Water discharge line is assumed to be well mixed. so that no additional mixing is required prior to sampling. The total concentration of the liquid waste is determined by the results of all required analyses on the collected sample, as follows: LC; =C a + Lc. +C f +C 1 + LC g (2.2) g where: C a the gross concentration of alpha emitters in the liquid waste, not less than that measured in the most recent applicable composite sample. C s the concentration of strontium radioisotopes (Sr-89 or Sr-90) in the liquid waste, not less than that measured in the most recent applicable composite sample. the concentration of Fe-55 in the liquid waste, not less than that measured in the most recent applicable composite sample. the concentration of H-3 in the liquid waste, not less than that measured in the most recent applicable composite sample. C g the concentration of gamma emitter g in the liquid waste as measured by gamma ray spectroscopy performed on the sample for the release under consideration. The C g term will be included in the analysis of each waste sample; terms for gross concentrations of alpha emitters, Sr-89, Sr-90, Fe-55, and tritium will be included in accordance with the sampling and analysis program required for the waste stream (see Section 2.1.2). For each analysis, only radionuclides identified and detected above background for the given measurement should be included in the calculation. When using the alternate setpoint methodology of step 5.b, the historical maximum values of C a , C s , Cf. and C t shall be used. Step Determine the required dilution factor for the mix of radionuclides detected in the waste. Version 24 01/10
Measured radionuclide concentrations are used to calculate ECl fractions. The ECl fractions are used along with a safety factor to calculate the required dilution factor; this is the minimum ratio of dilution flowrate to waste flowrate that must be maintained throughout the release to ensure that the Effluent Concentration Limits of Section 2.1.2 are not exceeded at the point of discharge into the UNRESTRICTED AREA. The required dilution factor, RDF, is calculated as the sum of the dilution factors required for gamma emitters (RDFy) and for non-gamma-emitters (RDFny): RDF = [2: + [(SFXTF)] i ECL i (2.3) = RDF'y + RDFny (2.4) (2.5) where: the measured concentration of radionuclide i as defined in step 1, in IlCifmL. The C a , C s , C I , and C t terms will be included in the calculation as appropriate. the ECl for radionuclide i from 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix S, Table 2, Column 2 (except for noble gases as discussed below). In the absence of information regarding the solubility classification of a given radionuclide in the waste stream, the solubility class with the lowest ECl shall be assumed. For dissolved or entrained noble gases, the concentration shall be limited to 1 x 10-4 IlCifmL. For gross alpha, the ECl shall be 2 x 10 .9 Il Ci/ml; if specific alpha-emitting radionuclides are measured, the ECl for the specific radionuclide(s) should be used. SF the safety factor selected to compensate for statistical fluctuations and errors of measurement. The value for the safety factor must be between o and 1. A value of 0.5 is reasonable for liquid releases; a more precise value may be developed if desired. TF the tolerance factor (as defined in Section 2.3.2.1). Step 3: Determine the release-specific assured dilution stream flowrate. Determine the dilution stream flowrate that can be assured during the release period, designated F d. Version 24 01/10
If simultaneous radioactive releases are planned from the same reactor unit, the unit's dilution stream must be allocated among all the simultaneous releases, whether or not they are monitored during release. Normally, only the Waste Monitor Tank and Steam Generator Blowdown effluents need be considered, unless there is detectable radioactivity in one of the normally low-radioactivity streams (see Table 2-4), or in the Turbine Building Sump. Allocation of the dilution stream to multiple release paths is accomplished as follows: (2.6) where: F dp = the dilution flowrate allocated to release pathway p, in gpm. AFp the dilution allocation factor for release pathway p. AFp may be assigned any value between 0 and 1 for each active release pathway, under the condition that the sum of the AFp for all active release pathways for each unit does not exceed 1. [Note: Because the two units have separate dilution streams, the two units do not affect each other with respect to dilution allocation.] the assured minimum dilution flow for the unit, in gpm. If more precise allocation factor values are desired, they may be determined based on the relative radiological impact of each active release pathway; this may be approximated by multiplying the RDF of each effluent stream by its respective planned release flowrate, and comparing these values. If only one release pathway for a given reactor unit contains detectable radioactivity, its AFp may be assigned the value of 1, making F dp equal to F d* For the case where RDF s; 1, the planned release meets the limits of Section 2.1.2 without dilution, and may be released with any desired effluent flowrate and dilution flowrate. Step Determine the maximum allowable waste discharge flowrate. For the case where RDF > 1, the maximum permissible effluent discharge flowrate for this release pathway, fmp (in gpm), is calculated as follows: _ F dp (2.7)imp -(RDF -1) For the case RDF s; 1, equation (2.7) is not valid. However, as discussed above, when RDF s; 1, the release may be made at full discharge pump capacity; the radioactivity monitor setpoint must still be calculated in accordance with Step 5 below. NOTE Discharge flowrates are actually limited by the discharge pump capacity. When the calculated maximum permissible release flowrate exceeds the pump capacity, the release may be made at full capacity. Discharge flowrates less than the pump capacity must be achieved by throttling if this is available; if throttling is not available, the release may not be made as planned. Version 24 01/10 FNp*ODCM NOTE If, at the time of the planned release, there is detectable radioactivity due to plant operations in the dilution stream, the diluting capacity of the dilution stream is diminished. (In addition, sampling and analysis of the other radioactive effluents affecting the dilution stream must be sufficient to ensure that the liquid effluent dose limits specified in the controls of Section 2.1.3 are not exceeded.) Under these conditions, equation (2.7) must be modified to account for the radioactivity present in the dilution stream prior to the introduction of the planned release: where: the measured concentration of radionuclide i in release pathway r that is contributing to radioactivity in the dilution stream. the effluent discharge f10wrate of release pathway r. If the entire dilution stream contains detectable activity due to plant operations, whether or not its source is identified, f r= F d , and C ir is the concentration in the total dilution system. This note does not apply: a) if the RDF of the planned release is 1; or b) if the release contributing radioactivity to the dilution stream has been accounted for by the assignment of an allocation factor. Step Determine the maximum radioactivity monitor setpoint concentration. Based on the values determined in previous steps, the radioactivity monitor setpoint for the planned release is calculated to ensure that the limits of Section 2.1.2 will not be exceeded. Because the radioactivity monitor responds primarily to gamma radiation, the monitor setpoint c p for release pathway p (in jlCi/mL) is based on the concentration of gamma emitters in the waste stream, as follows: where: an adjustment factor which will allow the setpoint to be established in a practical manner to prevent spurious alarms while allowing a margin between measured concentrations and the limits of Section 2.1.2. Step If the concentration of gamma emitters in the effluent to be released is sufficient that the high alarm setpoint can be established at a level that will prevent spurious alarms, Ap should be calculated as follows: Ap _l_xADF==_l_x (Fdp +fa p) (2.10)RDF RDF f ap where: Version 24 01/10
ADF the assured dilution factor. fap the anticipated actual discharge flowrate for the planned release (in gpm), a value less than f mp. The release must then be controlled so that the actual effluent discharge flowrate does not exceed fap at any time. Step 5.b. Alternatively, Ap may be calculated as follows: A = ADF-RDFny (2.11) P RDF y Step 5.c. Evaluate the computed value of Ap as follows: If Ap ;::: 1, calculate the monitor setpoint, cpo However, if c p is within about 10 percent of C g , it may be impractical to use this value of Cp. This situation indicates that measured concentrations are approaching values which would cause the limits of Section 2.1.2 to be exceeded. Therefore, steps should be taken to reduce potential concentrations at the point of discharge; these steps may include decreasing the planned effluent discharge flowrate, increasing the dilution stream f1owrate, postponing simultaneous releases, and/or decreasing the effluent concentrations by further processing the liquid planned for release. Alternatively, allocation factors for the active liquid release pathways may be reassigned. When one or more of these actions has been taken, repeat Steps 1-5 to calculate a new radioactivity monitor setpoint. If Ap < 1, the release may not be made as planned. Consider the alternatives discussed in the paragraph above, and calculate a new setpoint based on the results of the actions taken. Version 24 01/10 FNP-ODCM 2.3.2.3 Use of the Calculated Setpoint The setpoint calculated above is in the units IlCi/mL. The monitor actually measures a count rate that includes background, so that the calculated setpoint must be converted accordingly: c* c . E + B (2.8a)p p p the monitor setpoint as a count rate. the monitor calibration factor, in count rate/(IlCi/mL). Monitor calibration data for conversion between count rate and concentration may include operational data obtained from determining the monitor response to stream concentrations measured by liquid sample analysis. the monitor background count rate. In all cases, monitor background must be controlled so that the monitor is capable of responding to concentrations in the range of the setpoint value. The count rate units of E p , and Bp in equation (2.8a) must be the same (cpm or cps). 2.3.3 Setpoints for Monitors on Normally Low-Radioactivity Streams Radioactivity in these streams (listed in Table 2-4 above) is expected to be at very low levels, generally below detection limits. Accordingly, the purpose of these monitors is to alarm upon the occurrence of significant radioactivity in these streams, and to terminate or divert the release where this is possible. 2.3.3.1 Normal Conditions When radioactivity in one of these streams is at its normal low level, its radioactivity monitor setpoint should be established as close to background as practical to prevent spurious alarms, and yet alarm should an inadvertent release occur. 2.3.3.2 Conditions Requiring an Elevated Setpoint Under the following conditions, radionuclide concentrations must be determined and an elevated radioactivity monitor setpoint determined for these pathways: For streams that can be diverted or isolated, a new monitor setpoint must be established when it is desired to discharge the stream directly to the dilution water even though the radioactivity in the stream exceeds the level which would normally be diverted or isolated.
