ge concentration limits of 10 CFR Part 20 associated with releases of contaminated fire protection water and combustion gases and smoke. Specific NRC guidance is provided in RG 1.189, RG 1.205, and IE Information Notices 83-14, 84-72, 88-08, and 90-50, and in NUREG/CR-4601. 8. BTP 11-6 provides guidance and acceptance criteria on how to evaluate the consequences of the release of radioactive liquids following the postulated failure of a tank and its components, located outside of containment, and radiological consequences at the nearest water supply (surface water or groundwater), located in an unrestricted area, for direct human consumption or indirectly through animals, crops, and food processing. The analysis assumes that a tank and its components fail to meet design criteria as required by 10 CFR 50.34a, and GDC 60 and 61 of Appendix A to Part 50. BTP 11-6 presents guidelines and a graded approach in assessing the radiological impacts of tank failures. SRP Sections 2.4.12 and 2.4.13 present information and guidance on modeling the transport of associated radioactivity in groundwater and surface water bodies. The guidance provides reasonable assurance that the radiological consequences of a single failure of a tank and its components would not exceed the acceptance criteria of BTP 11-6 in an unrestricted area, assuming direct or indirect water consumption by any member of the public. If the results of a plant- and site-specific analysis do not meet BTP 11-6 acceptance criteria, the applicant should propose TS limiting the total amount of radioactivity in such a tank and components, as described in SRP Chapter 16, Section 5.5, Programs and Manuals, as adopted from standard technical specifications (NUREG-1430, NUREG-1431, NUREG-1432, NUREG-1433, and NUREG-1434). 9. 10 CFR 20.1301(e) requires that NRC-licensed facilities comply with the EPA generally applicable environmental radiation standards of 40 CFR Part 190 for facilities that are part of the fuel cycle.
