I. INTRODUCTION

The Radiological Environmental Operating Report provides a summary and data

interpretation of the Palisades Nuclear Plant (PNP) Radiological Environmental

Monitoring Program, as conducted during the 2008 reporting period. This report

was prepared in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50, Appendix I,

Sections IV.B.2, IV.B.3, IV.C, and Technical Specification 5.6.2.

Detailed sample station identification and location information can be found in

Chemistry Procedure CH 6.10, "Palisades Environmental Monitoring Program."

CH 6.10 is included as Attachment 3. The results of all environmental samples

collected are evaluated as follows:

A. Air iodine and particulate and thermoluminescent dosimetry (TLD) data

were statistically evaluated at the 95% confidence level. The data were

compared against two criteria. The first criterion is the statistical

difference, which indicates whether the sample results from near sites are

greater than those from control sites, and whether or not the difference is

significant (e.g., statistical "T-Test" of indicator vs. control results).

If the T-Test concludes that the control and indicator populations are

statistically different and the indicator populations are higher, then the

evaluation level (twice the statistical difference) is computed. This is the

minimum difference in the population means for which a corresponding

difference in sample means will exceed the statistical difference with 95%

confidence. If the evaluation level is exceeded, then correlation of the

results with effluent releases is performed.

B. If a sufficient number of positive sample results were available (e.g., >1

control and > 1 indicator) then well water, lake water, sediment, fish, and

other aquatic biota samples were evaluated using data mean

comparisons and the PNP Offsite Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM),

Appendix A, reporting limits.

II. NON-ROUTINE REPORTS

Non-routine reportable events did not occur during this reporting period.

III. DISCUSSION AND INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS

A. Air Samples

There were 260 air samples collected and analyzed for gross beta and

1-131. Air iodine/particulate samples are collected weekly from five airsampling locations. Air is metered into the sampling unit at an

Page 1 of 10
approximate one cubic foot per minute flow rate through a 47-mm air filter

(air particulate) and an air iodine cartridge. Both filters are in-line with

each other and housed within the same filter holder. Weekly samples

were sent to Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory for analysis.

Analysis of the airborne particulate sample data, between the four nearsite indicator locations and the control location, demonstrated no

statistical difference. The mean values of gross beta results for indicator

and control locations were 0.030 pCi/m3 and 0.029 pCi/m3, respectively.

Indicator location PR5 had the highest annual mean for gross beta results

at 0.031 pCi/m3. No trends in gross beta results are discernable when

compared to previous years' sample results.

All 1-131 activity results were below the Minimum Detectable Activity

(MDA) levels.

B. Lake Water (Surface Water)

Palisades ' lake water inlet , South Haven Municipal Raw and Ludington

lake water inlet water samples were collected daily and combined into

monthly composite samples. One gallon of Palisades Lake-In (1-ST) and

Ludington Lake-in (32-LP) and two gallons of South Haven Municipal Raw

(25-SH) were sent to Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory for analysis

each month . No treatment of the water samples with preservative is

required . Thirty-six monthly lake water composite samples collected from

the three locations and were analyzed for gross beta and tritium.

No statistical difference was found between the indicator and the control

location samples and no PNP ODCM Appendix A reporting limits were

exceeded. The gross beta mean values for the indicator and control

locations were 1.55 pCi/L and 1.54 pCi/L, respectively. Tritium was not

detected any indicator or control samples. There is no ODCM reporting

level for gross beta; if gross beta activity is >10 pCi/L, then gamma

analysis is required.

C. Drinking Water

Water samples from South Haven Municipal Water System (25-SH

Treated), and Ludington Lake-in (32-LP), were collected daily and

combined into separate monthly composite samples. (The South Haven

Treated is obtained at the PNP site.) One gallon of the Ludington Lake-in

and South Haven treated samples (twenty-four total) were sent to

Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory for beta and tritium analysis. No

treatment of water samples with preservative is required.

Page 2 of 10
No statistical difference was found in the beta results between the

indicator and the control location samples and no ODCM Appendix A

reporting limits were exceeded. The gross beta mean values for the

indicator and control locations were 2.09 pCi/L and 1.54 pCi/L,

respectively. Tritium was not detected in any indicator or control samples.

D. Milk

Two one-gallon quantities of raw milk (grab sample) are obtained per

sample location per month from dairy milk holding tanks. Each sample

quantity is treated with a sodium bisulfate preservative prior to being sent

to Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory for analysis.

Thirty six monthly milk samples were collected from three dairy farms

(stations 26-JH, 28-DC and 29-WS).

No milk analysis identified activity above the minimum detectable level,

with the exception of naturally occurring potassium-40.

E. TLDs - Gamma Dose

Environmental gamma doses are measured quarterly by placement of

TLDs at each designated location. Each TLD badge contains a 4-zone

Calcium Sulfate (CaSO4) wafer (the wafer includes an additional

backup/reserve readout zone). Sensitivity for the multi-zone TLDs is 10

millirem, with a linear response of 0.1 millirem to 1000 rem.

The PNP gamma assessment program consists of 29 locations. There is

a total of 16 inner ring TLDs, including one on-site, nine near-site and six

steam generator storage facility locations. There are ten outer ring TLD

locations (1.0 to 5.5 miles out) and three control TLDs (30 to 55 miles

out). A 30th TLD is placed in a lead storage cave (location number 22),

and is used as a control for in-transit dose monitoring and subtraction.

There were 116 TLDs collected and analyzed during 2008. The one onsite TLD location (1 -ST) serves as an individual reference TLD; however,

it was evaluated along with the inner ring (site boundary) TLDs in the

statistical evaluation.

The TLD data evaluations were performed by comparing the inner ring

TLDs (site boundary locations 1, 13-21 and 33-38), and the outer ring

TLDs (locations 2-9, 23 and 24), against the control TLD locations (10, 11,

12).

Page 3 of 10
For 2008, the quarterly average gamma readings (mR) were Inner Ring -

12.0, Outer Ring - 14.2 and Control - 15.2

The highest average dose was observed at outer ring station number 11,

(35 miles East) with a dose of 17.1 mrem.

Statistical analysis demonstrated that inner ring vs. control TLDs were two

different populations. However, the control mean was greater than the

inner ring mean and further evaluation was not done. There was no

statistical difference between the outer ring and control populations. No

trends are discernable when comparing inner ring with outer ring and

control TLD results. Overall, outer ring TLD mean results are consistently

higher than inner ring TLD mean results, and control station TLD mean

results are slightly higher than outer ring mean results. (The likely reason

for the lower results seen for the site perimeter locations is that these

TLDs are placed in wooded areas and thus shielded to some degree from

cosmic background radiation.)

F. Crops

Food crop samples are collected when available, and in season. Two

principal area crops, apples and blueberries, were collected.

Approximately 1 kg of sample is placed in a sealable plastic bag for

shipment to Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory. No special

treatment of the samples with a preservative is necessary.

Three crop samples were collected. Blueberries and apples were

collected at indicator station 4-JS (3.5 miles SE), and blueberries at a

control station located in the least prevalent wind direction, approximately

11 miles NNE.

No crop analysis identified activity above the Minimum Detectable Activity

for either 1 - 131 or gamma emitters.

G. Sediment

Sediment samples are collected semi-annually from each designated

location. No treatment of the samples with a preservative is necessary

prior to shipment to Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory.

Four sediment samples were collected from two locations. Two were

obtained from Palisades, 30-STN (0.5 miles north of discharge), and two

from the Ludington Control Station (32-LP).

The first semi- annual control sample showed Cs-137 activity of 0.037

pCi/g. No other sediment samples showed any gamma activity.

Page 4 of 10
H. Fish

Fish samples are collected semi-annually. Samples consist of two

species of commercially and/or recreational important species near the

plant discharge area. Control samples are obtained in an area not

influenced by plant discharge are collected. Each one-liter quantity of fish

sample is prepared for shipment to Environmental, Inc., Midwest

Laboratory. Each sample is frozen for preservation.

Nine fish samples were collected from two locations. Five indicator

samples were obtained from Palisades (1-ST discharge) and four control

samples were obtained from Ludington Station (32-LP).

Cs-137 was the only gamma emitter detected and was seen in one

indicator and two control samples. The indicator value was 0.029 pCi/g

and the control average was 0.040 pCi/gm. No trends are discernable

when compared to previous years' sample results. The ODCM reporting

limit for Cs-137 is 2000 pCi/kg (2 pCi/gm).

Broad Leaf Vegetation

No broad leaf vegetation samples were collected from the surrounding

PNP environs during 2008. The collection of broad leaf vegetation

samples serves as a backup and/or alternative sampling medium in case

any milk sampling location(s) become(s) unavailable.

J. Non-Routine Samples

There were no non-routine environmental samples collected during this

reporting period.

K. Gaseous and Liquid Radwaste Effluent Composite Samples

Both the gaseous and liquid radwaste effluent composite samples are

collected monthly and sent to Teledyne Brown for analysis. No special

sample treatment with a preservative is required prior to laboratory

analysis. The liquid effluent composite sample is based on a specific

amount of sample collected, per total batch volume release. The gaseous

radwaste effluent weekly composite sample results are based on

analyzing weekly stack gas filters.

Although not a direct reporting component in the PNP Annual Radiological

Environmental Operating Report, results of the gaseous and liquid

monthly radwaste effluent composite samples are evaluated against

overall environmental trending data. This evaluation is the basis for

Page 5 of 10
determining isotopic dispersion and deposition patterns within the

surrounding environs of PNP. All gaseous and liquid effluent results are

compared to the PNP ODCM, Appendix A, reporting levels. All isotopic

lower limits of detection (LLDs) were met.

IV. ASSESSMENT OF PALISADES OPERATION ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

In reviewing the 2008 PNP radiological environmental monitoring data, and

comparing it to previous operational and pre-operational data, all trending

parameters continue to indicate that the operation of PNP has minimal

environmental impact. Most isotopic activity is at environmental background

levels. Evidence of an overall environmental isotopic buildup (attributable to

plant effluents) remains negligible as well. In most instances, sample analytical

results were below previously established environmental background levels.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The following constitutes the final 2008 Monthly Progress Report for the Radiological Environmental Monitoring Program conducted at the Palisades Nuclear Generating Plant. Results of completed analyses are presented in the attached tables.

For all gamma isotopic analyses, spectrum is computer scanned from 80 to 2048 KeV. Specifically included are Mn-54, Fe-59, Co-58, Co-60, Zn-65, Zr-95, Nb-95, 1-131, Ba-La-140, Cs-134 and Cs-137. Naturally-occuring gamma-emitters, such as K-40 and Ra daughters, are frequently detected but not listed here. Data listed as "<" are at the 4.66 sigma level, others are 2 sigma.

All concentrations, except gross alpha and gross beta, are decay corrected to the time of collection.

All samples were collected within the scheduled period unless noted otherwise in the Listing of Missed Samples.

DATA REPORTING CONVENTIONS

B-9
Data Reporting Conventions

1.0. All activities, except gross alpha and gross beta, are decay corrected to collection time or the end of the collection period.

2.0. Single Measurements

Each single measurement is reported as follows: x i s

where: x = value of the measurements

s = 2s counting uncertainty (corresponding rtothe°.95%.conf;dence level).

,In cases where the activity is less than the lower limit of detection L, It isTeportedas: <L,

where L = the lower limit of detection based on 4,66s uncertainty forabackground,.sarnple.

3.0. Duplicate analyses

3.1 Individual results: For two analysis results; xt ± sl and x2 t s2

-21

Reported result: x ± s; where x = (1/2) (x j + x2) and s = {1/2) Js^ +S

3.2. Individual results: <Lt <L2 Reoorted result.-, ,<L,- where L =lower of L1 and L2

3.3. Individual results: x ± s, <L Reported result: x ± s if x eL; <L otherwise.

4.0. Computation of Averaoes and Standard Deviations

4.1 Averages and standard deviations listed in the tables are computed from all of the Individual

measurements over the period averaged; for example, an annual standard deviation would not be the

average of quarterly standard deviations. The average x and standard deviation s of a set of n

numbers x1, x2 ... xn are defined as follows:

x=1x s= x-x2

n n-1

4.2 Values below the highest lower limit of detection are not included in the average.

4.3 If all values in the averaging group are less than the highest LLD, the highest LLD is reported.

4.4 If all but one of the values are less than the highest LLD, the single value x and associated two sigma

error is reported,

4.5 In rounding off, the following rules are followed:

4.5.1. If the number following those to be retained is less than 5, the number is dropped, and the retained number s are kept unchanged. As an example, 11.443 is rounded off to 11.44.

4.5.2. If the number following those to be retained is equal to or greater than 5, the number is dropped and the last retained number is raised by 1. As an example, 11.445 is rounded off to 11.45.

Appendix A

Interlaboratory Comparison Procram Results

Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory has participated in interlaboratory comparison (crosscheck)

programs since the formulation of it's quality control program in December 1971. These programs are

operated by agencies which supply environmental type samples containing concentrations of radionuclides

known to the issuing agency but not to participant laboratories. The purpose of such a program is to provide

an independent check on a laboratory's analytical procedures and to alert it of any possible problems.

Participant laboratories measure the concentration of specified radionuclides and report them to the issuing

agency. Several months later, the agency reports the known values to the participant laboratories and

specifies control limits. Results consistently higher or lower than the known values or outside the control

limits indicate a need to check the instruments or procedures used.

Results in Table A-1 were obtained through participation in the environmental sample crosscheck program

administered by Environmental Resources Associates, serving as a replacement for studies conducted

previously by the U.S. EPA Environmental Monitoring Systems Laboratory, Las Vegas, Nevada.

The results in Table A-2 list results for thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs), via International

Intercomparison of Environmental Dosimeters, when available, and internal laboratory testing.

Table A-3 lists results of the analyses on in-house "spiked" samples for the past twelve months. All samples

are prepared using NIST traceable sources. Data for previous years available upon request.

Table A-4 lists results of the analyses on in-house "blank" samples for the past twelve months. Data for

previous years available upon request.

Table A-5 lists REMP specific analytical results from the in-house "duplicate" program for the past twelve

months. Acceptance is based on the difference of the results being less than the sum of the errors.

Complete analytical data for duplicate analyses is available upon request.

The results in Table A-6 were obtained through participation in the Mixed Analyte Performance Evaluation

Program.

Results in Table A-7 were obtained through participation in the environmental sample crosscheck program

administered by Environmental Resources Associates, serving as a replacement for studies conducted

previously by the Environmental Measurement Laboratory Quality Assessment Program (EML).

Attachment A lists the laboratory precision at the 1 sigma level for various analyses. The acceptance criteria

in Table A-3 is set at ± 2 sigma.

Out-of-limit results are explained directly below the result.

Results obtained by Environmental, Inc., Midwest Laboratory as a participant in the Department of Energy's

Mixed Analyte Performance Evaluation Program, Idaho Operations office, Idaho Falls, Idaho

Results are reported in units of Bq/kg (soil), Bq/L (water) or Bq/total sample (filters, vegetation).

Laboratory codes as follows: STW (water), STAP (air filter), STSO (soil), STVE (vegetation).

d MAPEP results are presented as the known values and expected laboratory precision (1 sigma, 1 determination)

and control limits as defined by the MAPEP.

e The results of a repeat analysis were still unacceptable. A spiked air filter was prepared (known activity 4.17 pCi/fitter) to

verify the methodology; results of the spike analysis were acceptable, 4.64 pCiffilter.

f Corrected result. An error in calculation was found.

9 Included in the testing series as a 'false positive". Result of reanalysis, 0.04 ± 0.01 Bq/L.

"Included in the testing series as a "false positive". Result of reanalysis, 3.78 ± 2.03 Bq/L.

The reason for the deviation is unknown. Result of the original sample recount: 0.47 ± 0.07 Bq/L.

The analysis was then repeated from the beginning. Result of reanalysis: 0.51 ± 0.07 Bq/L.

The lower result was due to a higher than average background count used in the calculation. Average background result: , 4.11 t 0.6
