ven in NUREG-0016 or NUREG-0017. 4. Decontamination factors for inplant control measures used to reduce gaseous effluent releases to the environment, such as iodine removal systems and high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters for building ventilation exhaust systems and containment internal cleanup systems are consistent with those given in Regulatory Guide 1.140. The building mixing efficiency for containment internal cleanup is consistent with NUREG-0017. 5. Decontamination factors for inplant control measures used to reduce liquid effluent releases to the environment, such as filters, demineralizers and evaporators, are consistent with those given in NUREG-0016 or NUREG-0017. 6. Radwaste augments used in the calculation of effluent releases to the environment are consistent with the findings of a cost-benefit analysis, performed using the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.110. The provisions that require a cost-benefit analysis are stated in Section II.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50. 7. The source terms meet the "as low as is reasonably achievable" objective for effluent releases as required by paragraph c of Section 20.1 of 10 CFR Part 20 (Ref. 6). Effluent DRAFT Rev. 3 - April 1996 11.1-4 concentration limits at the boundary of the unrestricted area do not exceed the values specified in Table 2 of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 20.11 8. The source terms result in meeting the design objectives for doses in an unrestricted areas as set forth in Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.12 9. For evaluating the source terms, the applicant should provide the relevant information in the SAR as required by 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.34 and 10 CFR Part 50, Section 50.34a. This technical information should include all the basic data listed in Appendix A (BWRs) and Appendix B (PWRs) to Regulatory Guide 1.112 required in calculating the releases of radioactive material in liquid and gaseous effluents (the source terms). An acceptable method for satisfying the criteria given in items
