~I 3/4.3 INSTRUMENTATION BASES 3/4.3.1 and 3/4.3.2 PROTECTIVE AND ENGINEERED SAFETY FEATURES (ESF)INSTRUMENTATION The OPERABILITY of the protective and ESF instrumentation systems and interlocks ensure that 1)the associated ESF action and/or reactor trip will be initiated when the parameter monitored by each channel or combination thereof exceeds its setpoint, 2)the specified coincidence logic is maintained, 3)sufficient redundancy is maintained to permit a channel to be out of service for testing or maintenance, and 4)sufficient system functional capability is available for protective and ESF purposes from diverse parameters.
The OPERABILITY of these systems is required to provide the overall reliability, redundancy and diversity assumed available in the facility design for the protection and mitigation of accident and transient conditions.
The integrated operation of each of these systems is consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses.The surveillance requirements specified for these systems ensure that the overall system functional capability is maintained comparable to the original design standards.
The periodic surveillance tests performed at the minimum frequencies are sufficient to demonstrate this capability.
The measurement of response time at the specified frequencies provides assurance that the protective and ESF action function associated with each channel is completed within the time limit assumed in the accident analyses.No credit was taken in the analyses for those channels with response times indicated as not applicable.
Response time may be demonstrated by any series of sequential, overlapping or total channel test measurements provided that such tests demonstrate the total channel response time as defined.Sensor response time verification may be demonstrated by either 1)in place, onsite or offsite test measurements or 2)utilizing replacement sensors with certified response times.3/4.3.3 MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION 3/4.3'.1 RADIATION MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION The OPERABILITY of the radiation monitoring channels ensures that 1)the radiation levels are continually measured in the areas served by the individual channels and 2)the alarm or automatic action is initiated when the radiation level trip setpoint is exceeded.D.C.COOK-UNIT 1 B 3/4 3-1 Amendment No.

3/4.11 RADIOACTXVE EFFLUENTS BASES 3/4.11.1 LI UID EFFLUENTS 3/4.11.1.1 CONCENTRATION.
This specification is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents from the site to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be less than the concentration levels specified in 10 CFR part 20, Appendix B, Table II.This limitation provides additional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water outside the site will not result in exposures within (1)the Section II.A design objectives of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, to an individual and (2)the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.106(e)to the population.
The concentration limit for noble gases is based upon the~assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radioisotope and its MPC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in the International Commission on Radiological protection (ICRP)Publication 2.3/4.'11.1.2 DOSE.This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.A, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50.The Limiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I.The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time releases of radioactive material in liquid effluents will be kept"as low as is reasonable achievable." Also, for fresh water sites with drinking water supplies which can be potentially affected by plant operations, there is reasonable assurance that the operation of the facility will not result in radionuclide concentrations in the finished drinking water that are in excess of the requirements of 40 CFR 141.The dose calculations in the ODCM implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of an individual through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated.
The equations specified in the ODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be consistent with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109,"Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977, and Regulatory Guide 1.113,"Estimating Aquatic Dispersion of Effluents from Accidental and Routine Reactor Releases for the Purpose of Implementing Appendix I," April 1977.NUREG-0133 provides methods for dose calculations consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.109 and 1.113.This specification applies to the release of liquid effluents from each reactor at the site.The liquid effluents from the shared system are proportioned among the units sharing the system.D.C.COOK-UNIT 1 B 3/4 11-1 Amendment No.
 
RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES 3/4.11.1.3 LIQUID WASTE TREATMENT.
The OPERABILITY of the liquid radwaste treatment system ensures that this system will be available for use whenever liquid effluents require treatment prior to release to the environment.
The requirements that the appropriate portions of this system be used when specified provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be kept"as low as is reasonable achievable." This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criteria Section 11.1 of the Final Safety Analysis Report for the Donald C.Cook Nuclear Plant, and design objective Section II.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the liquid radwaste treatment system were specified as a suitable fraction of the dose design objectives set forth in Section ZZ.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for liquid effluents.
3/4.11.1.4 LIQUID HOLDUP TANKS.Restricting the quantity of radioactive material contained in the specified tanks provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tanks'ontents, the resulting concentrations would be less than the limits of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, at the nearest potable water supply and the nearest surface water supply in an UNRESTRICTED AREA.3/4.11.2 GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 3/4.11.2.1 DOSE RATE.This specification is provided to ensure that the dose rate any time at the SITE BOUNDARY from gaseous effluents from all units on the site will be within the annual dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20 for UNRESTRICTED AREAS.The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II.These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure, of an individual in an UNRESTRICTED AREA, to annual average concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table II of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR Part 20.106(b)).
For individuals who may at times be within the SITE BOUNDARY, the occupancy of the individual will be sufficiently low to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the SITE BOUNDARY.The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times, the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to an individual at or beyond the site boundary to less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the total body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin.These release rate limits also restrict, at all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background to an infant via the cow-milk-infant pathway to 1500 mrem/year for the nearest cow to the Plant.Iodine adsoxbing media refers to silver zeolite cartridges in Table 4.11-2 or the industry standard.This specification applies to the release of gaseous effluents from all reactors at the site.The gaseous effluents from the shared system are proportioned among the units sharing that system.D.C.COOK-UNIT 1 B 3/4 11-2 Amendment No.

3/4.3 INSTRUMENTATION BASES 3/4.3.1 and 3/4.3.2 PROTECTIVE AND ENGINEERED'SAFETY FEATURES (ESF)INSTRUMENTATION The OPERABILITY of the protective and ESF instrumentation systems and interlocks ensure that 1)the associated ESF action and/or reactor trip will be initiated when the parameter monitored by each channel or combination thereof exceeds its setpoint, 2)the specified coincidence logic'is maintained, 3)sufficient redundancy is maintained to permit a channel to be out of service for testing or maintenance, and 4)sufficient system functional capability is available for protective and ESF purposes from diverse parameters.
The OPERABILITY of these systems is required to provide the overall reliability, redundancy and diversity assumed available in the facility design for the protection and mitigation of accident and transient conditions.
The integrated operation of each of these systems is consistent with the assumptions used in the accident analyses.The surveillance requirements specified for these systems ensurethat the overall system functional capability is maintained comparable to the original design standards.
The periodic surveillance tests performed at the minimum frequencies are sufficient to demonstrate this capability., The measurement of response time at the specified frequencies provides assurance that the protective and ESF action function associated with each channel is completed within the time limit assumed in the accident analyses.No credit was taken in the analyses for those channels with response times indicated as not applicable.
Response time may be demonstrated by any series of sequential, overlapping or total channel test measurements provided that such tests demonstrate the total channel response time as defined.Sensor response time verification may be demonstrated by either 1)in place, onsite or offsite test measurements or 2)utilizing replacement sensors with certified response times.3/4.3 3 MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION 3/4.3.3.1 RADIATION MONITORING INSTRUMENTATION, The OPERABILITY of the radiation monitoring channels ensures that 1)the radiation levels are continually measured in the areas served by the individual channels and 2)the alarm or automatic action is initiated when the radiation level trip setpoint is exceeded.D.C.COOK-UNIT 2 B 3/4 3-1 Amendment"No i%~

I 3/4.11 RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES 3/4.11.1 LI UID EFFLUENTS 3/4.11.1.1 CONCENTRATION.
This specification is provided to ensure that the concentration of radioactive materials released in liquid waste effluents from the site to UNRESTRICTED AREAS will be less than the concentration levels specified in 10 CFR part 20, Appendix B, Table II.This limitation provides additional assurance that the levels of radioactive materials in bodies of water outside the site will not result in exposures within (1)the Section II.A design objectives of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, to an individual and (2)the limits of 10 CFR Part 20.106(e)to the population.
The concentration limit for noble gases is based upon the.assumption that Xe-135 is the controlling radioisotope and its MPC in air (submersion) was converted to an equivalent concentration in water using the methods described in the International Commission on Radiological protection (ICRP)Publication 2.I 3/4.11.1.2 DOSE.This specification is provided to implement the requirements of Sections II.A, III.A and IV.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50.The'imiting Condition for Operation implements the guides set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I.The ACTION statements provide the required operating flexibility and at the same time rel'eases of radioactive material in liquid effluents will be kept"as low as is reasonable achievable." Also, for fresh water sites with drinking water supplies which can be potentially affected by plant operations, there is reasonable assurance that the operation of the facility will not result in radionuclide concentrations in the finished drinking water that are in excess of the requirements of 40 CFR 141.The dose calculations in the ODCM implement the requirements in Section III.A of Appendix I that conformance with the guides of Appendix I be shown by calculational procedures based on models and data such that the actual exposure of an individual through appropriate pathways is unlikely to be substantially underestimated.
The equations specified in the ODCM for calculating the doses due to the actual release rates of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be consistent.
with the methodology provided in Regulatory Guide 1.109,"Calculation of Annual Doses to Man from Routine Releases of Reactor Effluents for the Purpose of Evaluating Compliance with 10 CFR Part 50, Appendix I," Revision 1, October 1977, and Regulatory Guide 1.113,"Estimating Aquatic Dispersion of Effluents from Accidental and Routine Reactor Releases for the Purpose of Implementing Appendix I," April 1977.NUREG-0133 provides methods for dose calculations consistent with Regulatory Guide 1.109 and 1'13.This specification applies to the release of liquid effluents from each reactor at the site.The liquid effluents from the shared system are proportioned among the units sharing the system.D.C.COOK-UNIT 2 B'3/4 11-1 Amendment No.
j t RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS BASES 3/4.11.1.3 IIQUID WASTE TREATMENT.
The OPERABILITY of the liquid radwaste treatment system ensures that this system will be available for use whenever liquid eff'uents require treatment prior to release to the environment.
The requirements that the appropriate portions of this system be used when specified provides assurance that the releases of radioactive materials in liquid effluents will be kept"as low as is reasonable achievable." This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50.36a, General Design Criteria Section 11.1 of the Final Safety Analysis Report for the Donald C.Cook Nuclear Plant, and design objective Section II.D of Appendix I to 10 CFR Part 50.The specified limits governing the use of appropriate portions of the liquid radwaste treatment system were specified as a suitable fraction of the dose design objectives set forth in Section II.A of Appendix I, 10 CFR Part 50, for liquid effluents.
3/4.11.1.4 LIQUID HOLDUP TANKS.Restricting the quantity of radioactive material contained in the specified tanks provides assurance that in the event of an uncontrolled release of the tanks'ontents, the resulting concentrations would be less than the limits of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II, Column 2, at the nearest potable water supply and the nearest surface water supply in an UNRESTRICTED AREA.3/4.11.2 GASEOUS EFFLUENTS 3/4.11.2.1 DOSE RATE.This specification is provided to ensure that the dose rate any time at the SITE BOUNDARY from gaseous effluents from all units on the site will be within the annual dose limits of 10 CFR Part 20 for UNRESTRICTED AREAS.The annual dose limits are the doses associated with the concentrations of 10 CFR Part 20, Appendix B, Table II.These limits provide reasonable assurance that radioactive material discharged in gaseous effluents will not result in the exposure of an individual in an UNRESTRICTED AREA, to annual average concentrations exceeding the limits specified in Appendix B, Table II of 10 CFR Part 20 (10 CFR Part 20.106(b)).
For individuals who may at times be within the SITE BOUNDARY, the occupancy of the individual will be sufficiently low to compensate for any increase in the atmospheric diffusion factor above that for the SITE BOUNDARY.The specified release rate limits restrict, at all times,-the corresponding gamma and beta dose rates above background to an individual at or beyond the site boundary to less than or equal to 500 mrem/year to the total body or to less than or equal to 3000 mrem/year to the skin.These release rate limits also restrict, at all times, the corresponding thyroid dose rate above background to an infant via the cow-milk-infant pathway to 1500 mrem/year for the nearest cow to the Plant.Iodine adsorbing media refers to silver zeolite cartridges in Table 4.11-2 or the industry standard.This specification applies to the release of gaseous effluents from all reactors at the site.The gaseous effluents from the shared system are proportioned among the units sharing that system.D.C.COOK-UNIT 2 B 3/4 11-2 Amendment No.
