r determined that, under these conditions, the concentrations of radioactive materials in gaseous effluents in unrestricted areas will be a small fraction of the limits specified in Table 2, Column 1, of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 20. 11.3-18 Revision 3 - March 2007 4. The staff has reviewed the sources of radiation and radioactivity and associated doses to members of the public and concludes that annual doses from all sources of radioactivity and radiation from the site (which may have either single or multiple units), including liquid and gaseous effluents and external radiation exposures from buildings and storage tanks and N-16 skyshine from a BWR turbine building as a source of external radiation, will not exceed the EPA generally applicable environmental radiation standards of 40 CFR Part 190 as implemented under 10 CFR Part 20.1301(e). 5. The staff has considered the ability of the proposed GWMS to meet the anticipated demands of the plant resulting from anticipated operational occurrences and has concluded that the system capacity and design flexibility are adequate to meet the anticipated needs of the plant. 6. The staff has reviewed the design features and operational programs and procedures to minimize, to the extent practicable, contamination of the facility and the environment; facilitate decommissioning; and minimize, to the extent practicable, the generation of radioactive waste. The staff concludes that the proposed design features and operational programs and procedures are consistent with NRC guidance and the requirements of 10 CFR 20.1406. 7. The staff has reviewed the applicant’s quality assurance provisions for the GRS portion of the GWMS, the quality group classifications used for the GRS components, the seismic design applied to the design of the GRS, and the structures housing the GRS. The design of the GRS and the structures housing it meet the criteria set forth in Regulatory Guide 1.143 for gaseous wastes produced during normal operation
