Content:
ioactive materials at the nearest potable water supply, located in an unrestricted area, for direct human consumption or indirectly through animals, crops, and food processing. Technical Rationale The technical rationale for application of these acceptance criteria to the areas of review addressed by this SRP section is discussed in the following paragraphs: 1. 10 CFR 20.1302 requires that surveys of radiation levels in unrestricted areas and radioactive materials in effluents released to unrestricted areas be performed to demonstrate system compliance with the dose limits to individual members of the public, as specified in 10 CFR 20.1301 and 10 CFR 20.1301(e). 10 CFR 20.1302, identifies two approaches, either of which can demonstrate compliance with the dose limits of 10 CFR 20.1301 and 10 CFR 20.1301(e). The requirements for one of these approaches are as follows: A. Demonstrate that the annual average concentrations of radioactive materials released in gaseous and liquid effluents at the boundary of the unrestricted area do not exceed the effluent concentration limits specified in Table 2, Column 2, of Appendix B to 10 CFR Part 20. B. Demonstrate that the annual and hourly doses from external sources to an individual continuously present in an unrestricted area will not exceed 0.5 mSv (0.05 rem) and 0.02 mSv (0.002 rem), respectively. 11.2-8 Revision 3 - March 2007 Meeting the above requirements provides assurance that the dose limits to individual members of the public specified in 10 CFR 20.1301 and 10 CFR 20.1301(e) will not be exceeded. Meeting the dose requirements identified above will be evaluated as part of the review in this SRP section. Meeting the requirements on gaseous effluent concentration limits in unrestricted areas is identified as an acceptance criterion in SRP Section 11.3 and will be evaluated in that SRP section as well. 2. 10 CFR 20.1406 requires that applicants describe how facility design and procedures for operation will minimize, to
