reactor, Radiological Assessment BTP (Revision 1, November 1979); and guidance of RG 1.21; RG 1.33; RG 4.1, “Programs for Monitoring Radioactivity in the Environs of Nuclear Power Plants”; RG 4.8, “Environmental Technical Specifications for Nuclear Power Plants”; and RG 4.15. The review includes the evaluation of the following operational documents: A. RETS/SREC—Review of the TS (i.e., administrative controls section) proposed by the applicant for process and effluent control is performed for input to the review of SRP Chapter 16 (and TS on Administrative Controls), and in this SRP section for the RETS/SREC. The reviewer determines that the elements and scope of the programs identified in the administrative controls section of the TS agree with the requirements identified as a result of the staff’s review. The review includes the evaluation or development of appropriate limiting conditions for operation or controls and their basis, consistent with the plant design. For the RETS/SREC, the review determines whether the following elements are addressed and meet regulatory requirements and guidance noted above for liquid and gaseous effluents. The review addresses surveillance requirements and controls; operational conditions of radiation monitoring and sampling equipment; required number of operational channels; conduct and frequencies of channel checks, source checks, channel calibrations, and channel functional checks; compliance with action statements and remediation whenever the number of operational channels and applicability are less than the required minimum; sampling and analysis programs for continuous and batch mode releases, including provisions for the collection of grab and composite samples; and derivations of lower limit of detections by categories of effluents or radionuclides and types of radiological analyses. The programs identified in the administrative controls section of the TS and elements of the RETS/SREC are reviewed using the
