o the design testing and main- tenance of normal ventilation exhaust systems at nuclear power plants. 11.1-2 1Rev. 2 - July 1981 Specific criteria necessary to meet the relevant requirements of 10 CFR Part 20 and-10 CFR Part 50 are as follows: 1. The parameters used to calculate primary and secondary coolant concentra- tions for PWRs are consistent with those given in NUREG-0017 (Ref. 1). The parameters used to calculate coolant concentrations for BWRs are consistent with those given in NUREG-0016 (Ref. 2). 2. All normal and potential sources of radioactive effluent delineated in subsection I are considered. 3. For each source of liquid and gaseous waste considered in subsection 1.1, the volumes and concentrations of radioactive material given for normal operation and anticipated operational occurrences are consistent with those given 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 (Ref. 3). 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 environ- ment are consistent with the findings of a cost-benefit analysis, performed using the guidance of Regulatory Guide 1.110 (Ref. 4). The provisions that require a cost-benefit analysis are stated in Section II.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50 (Ref. 5). 7. The source terms meet the "as low as is reasonably achievable" objective for effluent releases as required by
