al released from each reactor at the site to the atmosphere will not result in an estimated annual external dose from gaseous effluents to any individual in unrestricted areas in excess of 0.05 mSv (5 millirems) to the total body 33 or 0.15 mSv (15 millirems) to the skin. 34 b. The calculated annual total quantity of all radioactive material released from each reactor at the site to the atmosphere will not result in an estimated annual air dose from gaseous effluents at any location near ground level which could be occupied by individuals in unrestricted areas in excess of 0.01 cGy (10 millirads) for gamma radiation or 0.02 cGy 35 (20 millirads) for beta radiation. 36 37 bc. The calculated annual total quantity of all radioactive iodine, carbon-14, tritium, and radioactive material in particulate form released from each reactor at the site in effluents to the atmosphere will not result in an estimated annual dose or dose commitment from such radioactive iodine and radioactive material in particulate form releases for any individual in 38 an unrestricted area from all pathways of exposure in excess of 0.15 mSv (15 millirems) to any organ. 39 cd. In addition to a., b, and b c, above, the gaseous waste management systems should include all items of reasonably demonstrated technology that when added to the system sequentially and in order of diminishing cost-benefit return, can for a favorable cost-benefit ratio effect reductions in dose to the population reasonably expected to be within 80 km (50 miles) of the reactor. Regulatory Guide 1.110 provides an 40 acceptable method for performing this analysis.41 de. The concentrations of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents released to an unrestricted area should not exceed the limits specified in 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, TableII 2, Column 1. 42 2. The gaseous waste management system should be designed to meet the anticipated processing requirements of the plant. Adequate capacity should be provided to process
