would not exceed the radionuclide concentration limits of Appendix B (Table 2, Column 2, under the unity rule) to 10 CFR Part 20 using the nearest source of potable water, in an unrestricted area, for direct or indirect human consumption by any member of the public. 8. 10 CFR 20.1301(e) requires that NRC-licensed facilities comply with the EPA generally applicable environmental radiation standards of 40 CFR Part 190 for facilities that are part of the fuel cycle. The EPA annual dose limits are 0.25 mSv (25 mrem) to the whole body, 0.75 mSv (75 mrem) to the thyroid, and 0.25 mSv (25 mrem) to any other organ. Meeting the requirements of 10 CFR 20.1301(e) requires the consideration of all potential sources of external radiation and radioactivity, including liquid and gaseous effluents and external radiation exposures from buildings, storage tanks, radioactive waste storage areas, and N-16 skyshine from boiling-water reactor (BWR) turbine buildings. The EPA standards apply to the entire site or facility, whether it has single or multiple units. SRP Sections 11.3 and 11.4 address the sources of radioactivity and doses associated with gaseous effluents and solid wastes, respectively. SRP Section 12.3-12.4 addresses the sources of radiation and external radiation exposures from buildings, storage tanks, radioactive waste storage areas, and N-16 skyshine from BWR turbine buildings. III. REVIEW PROCEDURES The reviewer will select material from the procedures described below, as may be appropriate for a particular case. 11.2-11 Revision 3 - March 2007 These review procedures are based on the identified SRP acceptance criteria. For deviations from these acceptance criteria, the staff should review the applicant’s evaluation of how the proposed alternatives provide an acceptable method of complying with the relevant NRC requirements identified in Subsection II. The NRC staff will review the information describing the design features of the LWMS provided in the SAR, the DC
