Environmental Monitoring Program at the Feed Materials Production Center
The environmental monitoring program at the Feed Materials Production Center (FMPC) consists of monitoring and surveillance activities which support facility regulatory compliance. These activities include environmental sampling, data management and analysis, and data reporting to support air compliance, water compliance, and solid waste compliance at the FMPC. The Environmental Compliance subsection of the Environment, Safety and Health Department is responsible for planning, implementing, and reporting environmental monitoring at the FMPC. Program management is supported by quality assurance requirements, standard operating procedures, chain of custody procedures, data management and analysis strategies, and personnel training. The development and implementation of environmental monitoring and surveillance programs at the FMPC is guided by DOE Orders and federal and state regulations which specify radiological and nonradiological parameters for facilities such as the FMPC. These parameters and associated exposure limits support the ALARA Principle of maintaining exposures to the public and the environment to as low as reasonable achievable. Monitoring and surveillance activities at the FMPC are grouped into three categories: air compliance, water compliance, and solid waste compliance. These categories consist of individual sampling programs designed to effectively monitor the various media within each category. Sampling locations, schedules, and analytical parameters are specified in this report for each program when applicable. 15 figs., 12 tabs.
