1 OVERVIEW This quarterly report summarizes s environmental emissions data for the year-to-date, including: Radioactive Effluents: Releases to air and water, including discharges to the municipal sewage system, were less than one per cent of regulatory limits. Pickering Waste Management Facility: Monitoring results confirm the integrity of the facility. Hazardous Substances Releases: Discharges to air and water were in accordance with regulatory requirements. Spills to the Environment: There were two spills to the environment that were reportable to a government agency. The spills resulted in negligible environmental impact. ENVIRONMENTAL EMISSIONS MANAGEMENT OPG has an environmental management program to ensure its activities are conducted in a manner that minimizes any adverse impact on the public and the environment. OPG s environmental program is consistent with Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) requirements for environmental protection and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard for environmental management systems. The quality assurance programs for OPG s chemistry and health physics laboratories conform to the requirements of national and international standards. As part of OPG s environmental management program, OPG has established an effluent monitoring and control program that is based on the ALARA principle. That is, measures are in place to ensure emissions to the environment are kept As Low As Reasonably Achievable while taking social and economic factors into account. reports environmental emissions data to the CNSC on a quarterly basis. MONITORING OF RADIOACTIVE EFFLUENTS Release Limits & Action Levels OPG uses radiation dose limits specified in federal legislation to derive Release Limits for the radionuclides that may be released to air and water from its nuclear facilities. must maintain its radiological emissions to within these limits to meet the terms of its operating licence. Public Radiation Dose Data The radiation dose to the public resulting from the operation of is a very small fraction of the estimated annual average background radiation dose around the station. Annual environmental monitoring program results for, including an assessment of radiation dose to the public, are available at: OPG also sets Action Levels that are well below the Release Limits to identify and control emissions before a limit can be reached. Year-to-Date Performance Natural Background Radiation 99.9% Contribution 0.1% s emissions to the environment are monitored to track performance. For, Pickering Nuclear s radiological emissions to air and water remained less than one per cent of the Release Limits and no Action Levels were exceeded. (Appendix A, Tables A.1, A.2 and A.3) Additionally, requirements related to the 1

4 remained less than one per cent of the Release Limits and no Action Levels were exceeded. (Appendix A, Table A.4) The following graph shows s sewage effluent emissions for as a percentage of the Release Limit. Discharges to the Municipal Sewer as a Per Cent of Release Limits PICKERING WASTE MANAGEMENT FACILITY Air, water and radiation dose monitoring requirements for the Pickering Waste Management Facility were met for and no issues were identified. (Appendix A, Tables A.5, A.6 and A.7) RELEASES OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES complies with numerous regulatory requirements for controlling and monitoring releases of hazardous substances to the environment. The following substances are released as part of station operations and the amounts released are recorded. (Appendix A, Table A.8) Sulphur Dioxide, Nitrogen Oxides and Carbon Dioxide has standby diesel generators to provide back-up electrical power to the station if required. These generators are routinely tested to ensure their availability. had no regulatory noncompliances associated with the air emissions from these generators in. Hydrazine and Ammonia uses hydrazine and ammonia in station water systems to prevent corrosion. These chemicals are released when steam is vented to the atmosphere and when water is drained to Lake Ontario. had no regulatory non-compliances associated with hydrazine and ammonia emissions in. 4

5 Ozone-Depleting Substances Ozone-depleting substances are used in refrigeration systems. s refrigerant leaks to air are minimized through routine inspections and maintenance of equipment. There were no releases of ozone-depleting substances that were reportable as a spill in. Chlorine uses sodium hypochlorite as a biocide to control mussel infestations in station water systems that use lake water. had no regulatory non-compliances associated with chlorine emissions in Q SPILLS TO THE ENVIRONMENT OPG has extensive programs to ensure the risk of spills to the environment is effectively assessed and managed. All spills are reported by OPG to the appropriate federal, provincial and municipal agencies as required. OPG classifies its reportable spills as Category A, B or C Spills based on the actual or potential impacts. Category A Spills are considered very serious due to the scale of injury or damage, health effects, or safety impairment. Category B Spills are considered serious due to localized injury or impacts to property. Category C Spills are all other reportable spills that are less serious than Category A and B Spills. Year-to-Date Performance had two reportable spills in : On February 14, an estimated 50 litres of waste water containing sewage leaked to Lake Ontario. On March 20, an estimated 10 litres of oil was discharged to Lake Ontario. Both spills were classified as Category C Spills as they resulted in negligible environmental impact. These releases occurred from equipment that is part of non-nuclear systems and there were no radiological releases to the environment. Actions were taken to stop the sources of the spills and to prevent recurrence. (Appendix A, Table A.9) 5

Table A.9: Spills to the Environment Category C Spill (Less Serious) February 14, 2014 An estimated 50 litres of waste water containing sewage leaked over several days from a pipe to a station drainage system and was discharged to Lake Ontario. Action was taken to stop and contain the source of the spill once it was identified that the water contained sewage. None of the sewage could be recovered from the lake. An evaluation of the cause of the spill was completed. A corrective action plan was developed and actions include repairing the pipe and the delivery of communications to staff to prevent recurrence. Category C Spill (Less Serious) March 20, 2014 An estimated 10 litres of oil was released via the yard drainage system to Lake Ontario. The oil was spilled during work activities at the Unit 4 Main Output Transformer. Immediate action was taken to install a boom across the station outfall to contain the oil. A portion of the oil was recovered. An evaluation of the cause of the spill was completed. A corrective action plan was developed and actions include the communication of spill containment expectations to contractors and improvements to the inspection of yard drain covers. 12
