RESULTS OF MONITORING AT OLKILUOTO IN 2017 ENVIRONMENT ABSTRACT In 2003, Posiva Oy presented a programme for monitoring at Olkiluoto during construction and operation of ONKALO. In 2012 the monitoring programme was updated to concern the years 2012 2018. In 2016 the monitoring programme was updated again to concern years 2017-2019. The need to the update the programme came from the timing of the data-lock in safety case for operating license application. The surface environment monitoring programme has been producing initial data for the biosphere modelling. Because the data-lock for the biosphere modelling for safety case was set in the end of 2016, could the production of data needed in the biosphere modelling be ceased by the end of 2016. The current surface environment monitoring programme is focusing on the traditional environmental impacts of contruction and operation works of the final disposal project. Part of the monitoring is performed by the company running the nuclear power plants on the island, Teollisuuden Voima Oy. This Working Report presents the main results of Posiva s environmental monitoring programme on Olkiluoto Island in 2017. Results are presented under three topics: 1. Interaction between surface environment and groundwater in bedrock, 2. Environmental impact and 3. Baseline of monitoring of radioactive releases. Interaction between surface environment and groundwater in bedrock included e.g. weather and surface water monitoring data. During 2017 the land use of Olkiluoto was monitored by taking aerial photographies of the area. From the aerial images the increase of industrial areas and growth of new forest on shore-area can be observed. In the monitoring of surface runoff no events deviating from previous years were observed. The sulphate level in the ditch running south of ONKALO-site remains clearly higher than in other monitored ditches. Environmental impact monitoring included e.g. monitoring of noise, effluent waters, nearby freshwater systems and private drilled wells. Noise monitoring in the vicinity of ONKALO showed that in the case of raised noise levels the main source is the traffic on the Olkiluodontie road. In the monitoring of the outlet waters of ONKALO the action limit set for ph (9.5) was not exceeded in 2017 and the action limit set for suspended solids (50 mg/l) in the rock piling area drainage waters was not exceeded either. During 2017 the nitrate levels in the outlet ditch remained higher compared to background levels. The origin of the nitrate is the explosives used in underground mining work. The sulphate levels of outlet waters remains in the same level than in previous year. High suspended solid value were observed occasionally in the sedimentation pool but not in the outlet waters. The water quality of the monitored private wells is poor or good depended on the well in case. Water quality is affected by the natural properties of the area. Water levels and water qualities of the drilled wells are not affected by the construction of ONKALO. In 2017, Posiva s environmental radioactivity baseline study had not yet been started, but the results of radiological monitoring of the environment of TVO s nuclear facilities are presented in Chapter 5 as background information for Posiva's study. Keywords: environmental monitoring, ecosystem, baseline condition, change.

YMPÄRISTÖN MONITOROINTIOHJELMA OLKILUODOSSA VUONNA 2017 TIIVISTELMÄ Vuonna 2003 Posiva Oy esitti Olkiluodon ympäristön monitorointiohjelman ONKALO:n rakentamisen ja käytön ajalle. Ohjelma päivitettiin vuonna 2012 koskemaan vuosia 2012 2018. Pintaympäristön monitoroinnin ohjelma päivitettiin vuonna 2016 uudestaan vuosille 2017-2019. Syy päivitykseen oli turvallisuusperustelun biosfäärimallinnuksen datalukituksen ajankohta. Pintaympäristön monitorointiohjelma on tuottanut lähtöaineistoa biosfäärimallinnukselle, mutta koska datalukituksen ajankohta oli asetettu vuoden 2016 loppuun, ei uutta aineistoa ei oteta enää mukaan ja useiden tutkimusten teettäminen saatettiin lopettaa toistaiseksi. Nykyinen monitorointiohjelma keskittyy erityisesti loppusijoitustyömaan ympäristövaikutuksiin. Osa monitoroinnin tuloksista saadaan Teollisuuden Voima Oy:n ohjelmasta. Tämä työraportti esittää päätulokset Posivan ympäristönmonitoroinnin tuloksista vuonna 2017. Tulokset on jaettu kolmen otsakkeen alle: 1 Yhteydet pintaympäristön sekä kalliopohjaveden välillä., 2. Vaikutukset ympäristöön. sekä 3. Perustila radioaktiivisten päästöjen monitoroinnin pohjaksi. Pintaympäristön sekä kalliopohjaveden välisistä yhteyksistä kertovat esim. sään ja pintavesien seurannan rekisterit. Vuoden 2017 aikana Olkiluodon alueen maankäyttöä seurattiin ilmakuvaamalla alue ja tekemällä tulkinta alueen maankäytöstä. Ilmakuvista voidaan havaita teolliseen käyttöön tarkoitetun alueen kasvua ja uuden metsän muodostumista ranta-alueille. Pintavalunnan seurannassa ei havaittu edellisistä vuosista poikkeavia tapahtumia. Sulfaattipitoisuus Onkalo-alueen eteläpuolella virtaavassa ojassa on edelleen selkeästi korkeampi kuin muissa seurattavissa ojissa. Ympäristövaikutusten tutkimusohjelmassa oli mm. melun, vesipäästöjen, läheisten vesistöjen sekä yksityisten porakaivojen seurantaa. Liikenne nostattaa lähialueidensa melutasoja ja ONKALO:n työmaalta kuuluu satunnaisesti voimakkaita ääniä. ONKALO:n poistovesissä ei vuonna 2017 ylitetty seurantaohjelmassa asetettua ph:n toimenpiderajaa (9.5) eikä läjitysalueen valumavesissä ylitetty kiintoainekselle asetettua 50 mg/l toimenpiderajaa. Onkalon poistovesiojan nitraattipitoisuudet pysyivät taustaarvoihin verrattuna korkealla tasolla vuoden 2017 aikana. Poistoveden nitraatti on peräisin maanalaisten tilojen louhinnan räjäystysaineista. Poistoveden sulfaattipitoisuus pysyi viime vuoden tasossa. Poistoveden selkeytysaltaan näytteissä havaittiin ajoittain korkeita kiintoainespitoisuuksia, mutta poistovesiojassa kiintoainespitoisuudet olivat alhaisia. Louheen läjitysalueen näytteissä ei havaittu edellisistä vuosista poikkeavia arvoja. Yksityisten kaivojen vesi on hyvä- tai huonolaatuista riippuen kaivosta. Veden laatuun vaikuttavat alueen luonnolliset syyt. ONKALO:n rakennustyöt eivät ole vaikuttaneet niiden vedenlaatuun tai pinnankorkeuksiin. Posivan ympäristön radioaktiivisuuden perustilaselvitys ei alkanut vuoden 2017 aikana, joten kappalessa 5 esitellään TVO:n ympäristön säteilyvalvonnan näytteiden tuloksia Olkiluodosta taustatiedoksi Posivan perustilaselvitystä varten. Avainsanat: ympäristön seuranta, ekosysteemi, perustilanne, muutos.

3 1 INTRODUCTION In July 2004, Posiva Oy began to construct an underground rock characterisation facility called ONKALO at the island of Olkiluoto, located in the municipality of Eurajoki, Finland (Figure 1-1). In February 2012, excavation of the ONKALO access tunnel reached 455 m b.s.l., which is the deepest location as per the existing plans. During 2012 the main emphasis also shifted from excavation to building and structural work. Since 2013 the emphasis remained on building and structural works, both underground and above ground. During 2016 aboveground works started on encapsulation plant. The construction of ONKALO and subsequently the construction of the repository for spent nuclear fuel will affect the surrounding rock mass and the groundwater flow system as well as the environment. In December 2003, a programme for monitoring at Olkiluoto during construction and operation of ONKALO was presented (Posiva 2003b). In 2012 the monitoring programme was updated to concern the years 2012 2018 (Posiva 2013a). In 2016 the monitoring programme was updated again to concern years 2017-2019. Changes concerning the environmental monitoring programme are presented in internal memo (POS-023624) and are presented in this report in Chapter 2. A summary of the observations and measurements is reported annually for each discipline: rock mechanics, hydrology, hydrogeochemistry, environment, and, since 2012, engineered barrier system. Previously monitoring of foreign material was also one of the disciplines, but since 2016 it has been implemented as a separate work to be done in connection with the construction activities. The environmental measurements and observations carried out in 2017 are presented here. The results are divided into following three parts, according to the arrangement of the updated (in 2016) monitoring programme: Interaction between surface environment and groundwater in bedrock Environmental impact Baseline of monitoring of radioactive releases Naturally, the data presented in the various parts partly overlap. Extent of presented results and tables varies according to the type of original material: data presented in memos is generally presented in more detail than those presented in easily obtainable Posiva Working Reports. Major points of the monitoring design as well as maps of monitoring locations are presented at the beginning of each result sector. A list of monitoring locations is presented in Appendix B. Earlier results and progress of the environmental monitoring have been presented by Haapanen 2005 2012 & 2014, Pere et al. 2015 & 2017 and Sojakka et al. 2018a & 2018b. This report is based partly on the structure of the previous reports. Chapters Results I: Evolution of geosphere and Results II: Biosphere modelling input data existing in earlier reports have been removed from this report since current monitoring programme does not include studies related to these sections.tiina Sojakka (Posiva Oy) has been the main writer and editor of the report. Taavet Lipping (Tampere University of Technology) has been responsible for the weather data processing and reporting. Fiia Haavisto and Antti Rinne (FM Meri&Erä) have been responsible for interpreting the aerial images for section concerning changes in land use (Appendix K). Kirsi Weckman (Teollisuuden Voima Oy) has been responsible for analyzing the results of seawater sampling at Olkiluoto site (Appendix D). In addition

5 2 MONITORING SYSTEM AND SCHEDULE The monitoring system up to year 2012 was described in Posiva Report 2003-05 (Posiva 2003b). Improvements to the system were done based on experiences. The aims of the monitoring have been to observe changes in the host rock and surface environment that may affect the long-term safety of final disposal of spent nuclear fuel, or the assessment of it, to obtain data on the properties of the site and the environmental impact of the project, and to obtain information on the response of the host rock to the excavation for the benefit of further planning of construction, operation, and eventual closure of the disposal facility. An updated monitoring programme was prepared to be implemented from the year 2012 until ca. 2018. The programme was expanding because of new objectives for monitoring: the performance of the engineered barriers and radioacative releases into environment. The updated programme is described in Posiva Report 2012-01 (Posiva 2013a). Monitoring of the surface environment have served several purposes, providing data on the conventional environmental impacts of the project, changes in land use and weather conditions. It has also produced input data for biosphere modelling on the storage and transport of radionuclides in the overburden, groundwater, surface water bodies and organisms, as well as data relevant for the performance of the disposal system on the interaction between the deep groundwater and the surface environment. In 2016 monitoring programme was updated again for the years 2017-2019 and some notable changes were made for surface environment monitoring programme (see Appendix A). The need to the update the programme came from the timing of the datalock in safety case for operating license application. The surface environment monitoring programme presented in Posiva Report 2012-01 has been producing initial data for the biosphere modelling. Because the data-lock for the biosphere modelling for safety case was set in the end of 2016, it was possible to cease the production of data needed in the biosphere modelling at the end of 2016. In addition, sufficient datasets has been acquired for certain studies (like studies related to infiltration of groundwater) and there is no need continues these studies at the moment. The investigations ceased in the end of 2016 include several studies implemented in the forest intensive monitoring plots, like: vegetation inventories, tree growth measurements, sampling of deposition, percolation water, litterfall and soil water for chemical analyses. Also update of game statatics and sea water sampling ended in the end of 2016. In the end of 2016 also the analyses package (Class 1) for surface waters could be changed since there was no longer need to analyse certain key elements from the samples for biosphere modelling. The updated set of analysis parameters serves interests of the environmental impact monitoring and is focused especially on those metals that could be released from the minerals of Olkiluoto bedrock to the surface waters. The updated analyses package is presented in Table 2-2. During the update in 2016, the monitoring of ONKALO-outlet waters in sedimentation pool was moved from the monitoring programme of foreign materials to the monitoring programme of surface environment. Results of the samples from sedimentation pool are presented in section 4.2 Effluent water.

6 The radiological baseline study of the environment was removed from the monitoring programme in the end of 2016 since it was decided that a separate project will be established for the baseline study. Annual results from the Posiva's radiological baseline study as well as annual from results of environmental radioactivity monitoring programme of Teollisuuden Voima's (TVO) nuclear power plants are to be reported in annual environmental monitoring reports. When entering the operational phase of the repository, the radioactivity monitoring will continue, as modified based on the results and experiments from the baseline period. The current surface environment monitoring programme is focusing on the traditional environmental impacts of contruction and operation works of the final disposal project. The list of all changes made to the monitoring programme during the latest update are presented in Appendix A. Because of the changes made to monitoring programme the chapters Results I: Evolution of geosphere and Results II: Biosphere modelling input data existing in earlier reports have been removed from this report. The list of changes made to the current monitoring programme is presented in Table 2-3. The monitoring programme will be updated again in the near future for the operational phase. Monitoring activities on Olkiluoto Island have been started by the company running the nuclear power plants on the island, TVO, long before the tasks carried out by Posiva Oy; some originate from the 1970 s. TVO s radionuclide sampling system is comprehensively described by Ikonen (2003) and Roivainen (2005) and TVO s marine environment monitoring system, for example, by Ikonen et al. (2003). Studies carried out by Posiva Oy before the actual Olkiluoto Monitoring Programme have been summarised in the Baseline Condition Report (Posiva 2003a); these aimed mainly at fulfilling the requirements of the environmental impact assessment process towards the end of the 1990s.

Due to human error Household water yield in drilled wells Analysis of ditch waters Water surface level measurements have been used as a number to estimate household water yield in drilled wells. Based on the programme, the measurements should be done 4 times a year, the amount of measurements in a year has however varied from 1 to 3 in practice, depending on the well. The annual sample amounts have not always been the same as described in Posiva 2012-01 for all observation points.

11 3 RESULTS I: INTERACTION BETWEEN SURFACE ENVIRONMENT AND GROUNDWATER IN BEDROCK 3.1 Landscape properties and land use The landscape of Olkiluoto Island has been under rapid changes during the time of Posiva s environmental monitoring programme (Table 3-1). The changes are partially related to power production and partially to nuclear waste disposal: in addition to Posiva s activities, construction of the third nuclear power plant on Olkiluoto (OL3) started in 2003, with corresponding infrastructure. Landscape properties can be monitored through maps and remotely sensed data. Topographic database by the National Land Survey of Finland has been added into Posiva s GIS database. Earlier, the database was updated at 5 10 year intervals, and changes in between were digitized manually based on aerial photographs. Nowadays, the database is freely available at the open data file download service of the National Land Survey of Finland. A summary of all remotely sensed data acquired by Posiva until 2017 with key properties listed is presented in Appendix E. Remote sensing data analysis of material collected from Olkiluoto and so called reference areas are presented in Working Report 2017-37 (Kumpumäki et al. 2018). The lastest regular aerial RGB and CIR orthoimages were taken from the Olkiluoto area in 2017. The images were taken in July to catch the full biomass of vegetation. A land use interpretation for the time period 1946-2017 is presented in Appendix K.

A register of silvicultural activities carried out in these polygons is maintained and was presented for the first time concerning felling year 2009/10 (Haapanen 2010; a felling year is a period of 12 months, starting in the beginning of July and ending in the end of June). During the felling year 2012/13, an area of ca. 15 ha was thinned/clear-cut in Tyrniemi. In 2015 some clear-cutting was done in Ilavainen area and in 2017 in the north side of TVO's accommodation village.

13 The monitoring of forests and mires on the island is based on a systematic grid with a density of 1 plot/ha, called OL-FET. The first rounds of measurements on OL-FET grid in 2004 and its subset in 2005 provide a statistical basis for the monitoring of forested parts of the landscape (Saramäki & Korhonen 2005, Huhta & Korpela 2006, Tamminen et al. 2007). A new control inventory done using a sparser version of the grid took place in 2014 (Korhonen et al. 2016). To estimate the extent of all current land-use types, the OL-FET network was extended to cover all land-use/land-cover classes and intermediate plots were added between the plots to create a 50 50 m grid. The land-use/land-cover of each plot was visually interpreted from the aerial photographs taken between 1946 and 2007 (Haapanen 2009). After this land-use statistics has been updated in 2013 (Pere et al. 2015) and 2017 (this report, Appendix K). The latest land-use statistics were updated by using the aerial photographs taken in 1946, 1957, 1974, 1987, 1995, 2002, 2007, 2009, 2013, 2015 & 2017.

14 3.2 Meteorology 3.2.1 Description of the monitoring system The information on weather and climate conditions gives boundary conditions to the hydrogeological and hydrogeochemical modelling of the site and provides background information for the modelling of radionuclide transport in the biosphere regarding postclosure safety assessments. Typical conditions of temperature, precipitation and humidity can be seen as especially important background information. Meteorological observations are mandatory for a nuclear power plant, thus a comprehensive database of major meteorological parameters is available from a weather mast OL-WOM1 (Figure 3-1). Until 2016 meteorological measurements were also made on four weather stations (OL-WOM2-5) locating on the forest intensive monitoring plots (OL-FIP) in Olkiluoto. When the forest investigations on OL-FIP's ceased also the weather measurements were discontinued in all plots except in weather mast OL-WOM2. From the OL-WOM2 meteorological measurements are recorded once an hour. The parameters are: air temperature, minimum and maximum temperature inside the crown layer and above the canopy relative humidity, precipitation (1 m above ground level), soil moisture content, soil temperature, photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), solar radiation, air pressure, wind speed and its direction. During 2017 the temperature sensor at the height of 2 meters as well as the soil temperature sensor at the depth of 10 cm were not functioning and because of this some meteorological values could not be calculated.

Map data: Topographic database by the National Land Survey of Finland and Posiva Oy. Coordinate system: KKJ1. Map layout Tuomas Pere/Posiva Oy.

15 Depth of ground frost and the thickness of the snow cover are measured manually on former forest intensive monitoring plot, OL-FIP4 (2 ground frost measuring points), on a snow monitoring transect OL-LL2 (20 snow and 7 ground frost measuring points), and on Olkiluodonjärvi (1 ground frost point) (Figure 3-2). Ground frost measurements on Liiklansuo mire were ceased in 2013 when construction works on the area destroyed the measuring tube (tube no. 8). On OL-FIP4, an automatic snow depth measuring station was tested during springs 2011 and 2012. Based on the results, measuring station seemed to work properly but so far a permanent installation of such a station has not taken place. Since 2007, measurements, analyses and results of meteorological monitoring have been presented in this report (Haapanen 2007 2012 & 2014, Pere et al. 2015 & 2017, Sojakka et al. 2018a & b). Earlier data have been reported by Ikonen (2002, 2005, 2007a). Figure 3-2.

25 3.2.3 Surface runoff Monitoring of surface runoff produces data for surface hydrology modelling and environmental impact monitoring. Earlier, runoff was measured manually, but automated measuring weirs (Figure 3-9) have produced data as of the following dates: OL-MP1 3 April 26, 2008, and OL-MP4 April 28, 2008. Measurements in the OL-MP3 were ceased in 16.11.2016 and these measurements were replaced by installing a new measuring weir (OL-MP5) at the same day in the downstream of ONKALO outlet ditch. The weirs are maintained and data provided by EHP Environment Oy. Measured parameters include water level, discharge, conductivity, temperature and ph. In Posiva s monitoring programme (Posiva 2013a), element analyses at the weirs are to be done according to Class 1 (also called Suite 1 in earlier reports). The first samplings of this new type (plan POS-014338) took place in 2012. Class 1 for surface waters was updated in the end of 2016 (see Table 2-2 & Chapter 2) and samples are taken according working guideline POS-013981. In 2017 the analyses were carried out by TVO s Laboratory and ALS Scandinavia AB. The results of chemical analyses of surface waters in 2016 are presented in Appendix G. Locations of the automatic measuring weirs are shown in Figure 3-8. By analyzing the long-term sulphate concentrations in general surface runoff at the weirs located in the monitored ditches in the central part of the Olkiluoto island, it was observed that a 2-4 fold increase of sulphate levels in surface runoff has occurred in the fall of 2013 on the island in general. According the Bachelor's thesis by Bohm (2017) the interaction between crushed rock and water in aerobic conditions seems to be apparent reason for the observed exceptionally high sulphate levels in groundwater samples taken from near the surface and surface water samples. The high SO4-levels generally decreased during the spring of 2014 but were re-elevated during the end of 2014. During 2015 sulphate concentrations in surface waters of MP1-MP2 declined back to the level where they were before fall of 2013 and remained on this level (Figures 3-13). In samples from measuring weir OL-MP4 (located between ONKALO-area and the nature reserve) sulphate levels have fluctuated over the years, but it seems that SO4 levels are generally higher in autumn than in spring or summer (Figure 3-13). This phenomenon can be explained by the higher surface runoff in autumn when more soil materials are flushed to surface waters. During 2017 sulphate levels in all measuring weirs were slowly rising again. Sulphate concentration in OL-MP4 are clearly higher than in other measuring weirs; for instance in sample taken 6.4.2017 from OL-MP4 SO4 level was 255 mg/l and at same time in OL- MP2 31 mg/l. Between 2009-2011 elevated nitrate concentrations were observed in the surface runoff at the weir OL-MP4. It was found that during the changing of road alignment to ONKALO, some rock material from ONKALO, containing remnants from explosives, had been left on the roadside. This is assumed to be the reason for the raised nitrate concentrations (Haapanen 2012). After this nitrate concentrations in the surface runoff have remained low (less than 10 mg/l) (Figure 3-14).

26 The concentrations of some the most common metals, that could be found in fresh waters, were analysed from the samples from the measuring weirs. Aluminium levels were clearly higher in measuring points OL-MP1 & -MP2 than in OL-MP4 & -5 and alternatively the chloride, strontium and sodium levels are clearly higher in measuring points OL-MP4 & -MP5 than in OL-MP1 & -2. Otherwise there were no notable differences between different ditches and no harmful amounts of metals like cadmium, nickel or lead have been found. Examples of some results are presented in Figure 3-15 and all the results are presented in Appendix G. In 2017, the measuring weirs worked reasonably well but several problems were also encountered. The dirtying of the sensors caused erroneous data. The results of ph and conductivity measurements were occasionally unreliable. The reason for this could be that measuring ranges of ph and conductivity sensors are not completely suitable for these measurements. The periods of missing or erroneous data are presented in Table 3-6 below. Monitoring results from 2017 are shown in Figures 3-10 to 3-12. In situations of low water level, deviations may be caused to the produced data since the sensors are located approximately 20 30 cm beneath the 0-level (the tip of the "V" of the V-shaped dam); in cases of no flow the parameters are measured in still water, and no useful results are produced.

33 4 RESULTS II: ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT 4.1 Noise Noise has been monitored once a year during the winter by TVO using direct measurements, in recent years on ten locations. Additionally, in 2005 a more comprehensive survey was performed by Insinööritoimisto Paavo Ristola Oy (on three occasions and 45 locations). Since 2011, additional noise level monitoring has also been made for Posiva in the vicinity of ONKALO two times a year. During 2017 only one noise level measurement was done instead of two due to human error. In 2017, TVO staff recorded noise on December 11. The ground was mostly free of frost and snow cover. The measuring device was CESVA model SC-160 type 2 recording digital device (Figure 4-2). LAT (continuous mean noise level) was recorded at one second intervals with a recording time of ten minutes at one spot. The power plants were operating at full power, it was however noted that this had no significant effect on the noise levels in the area (only "humming" sound can be heard from the power plants). In the vicinity of roads, traffic had significant effect on the noise levels in the environment. It was also noted that wind direction and speed affect the measurement results. During measuring day wind was blowing in gusts and sound of waves could be heard. Compared with the results of 2016, the biggest decrease in noise level (-6,0 db LAT) was observed at OL3 harbour (OL-NMP48). Reason for this measured difference is that in 2016 some machines were used next to the measuring device. Compared with the results of 2016, the biggest increase in noise level (+11,6 db LAT) was observed at monitoring point OL- NMP03 (island of Leppäkarta). This increase to noise level was caused by wind blown directly towards the measuring device. Posiva's own monitoring was carried out on one occasion (May 11) at four sites, with the same device and method. The ground was free of frost and snow cover. The noise level close to the the drill hole OL-L15, at the border of the nature conservation area (OL- NMP55) was affected by the sound of heavy traffic from the Olkiluodontie road and work done (battering sounds) at Posiva's encapsulation plant site. The noise levels at drill hole OL-L15 and at the visitor centre parking lot (OL-NMP56) have increased from the previous measurement (+11,6 db LAT in OL-NMP55 and +5,0 db LAT in OL-NMP56). At Rummintie 50 (OL-NMP57) and at Korvensuo reservoir (OL-NMP58) noise levels have decreased compared to the measurements done in 2016 (-4,9 db LAT in OL-NMP57 and -3,7 db LAT in OL-NMP58). Traffic noises were heard at Rummintie and visitor centre parking lot. Some measurement work was done at Korvensuo reservoir and sound of winch could be heard. Bird singing was observed at all measuring sites. The monitoring locations are shown in Figure 4-1, the measurement conditions in Table 4-1 and the results in Tables 4-2 to 4-3 and in Figure 4-3.

37 4.2 Effluent water 4.2.1 Water quality of surface runoff (automated measuring weirs) Results, including also chemical analyses, of samples taken from automated measuring weirs have been presented in the connection of weather data in Section 3.2.3. 4.2.2 Outlet waters of ONKALO site All waters used during the excavation of ONKALO are pumped up to the surface into a sedimentation pool after the removal of residue oil from the water. From the sedimentation pool (OL-PO1) the water flows through an outlet pipe to the outlet ditch. In 2017, weekly sampling of OL-PO1, OL-DI (the end of the discharge tube) and OL- DI15 (the intersection of Satamatie road and the ditch flowing from ONKALO to the sea) was carried out by RTK Palvelu Oy. The samples are taken according working guideline POS-001435 and POS-013981. The locations of the sedimentation pool, the discharge tube (outlet pipe) and the outlet ditch are presented in Figure 4-4. Before year 2012 the results of outlet ditch have been presented in the reports concerning foreign materials (e.g. Salo 2013). The monitoring of sedimentation pool have been transferred from monitoring programme of foreign materials to programme of surface environment in 2017. Sampling points OL-PO1 and OL-DI1 are analysed for ph, sodium fluorescein and electrical conductivity (EC) and OL-DI15 for ph (Figures 4-5 to 4-8). In 2017 a more comprehensive analysis was carried out four times for OL-PO1 (analyses package Class A,), OL-DI1 & OL-DI15 (analyses package Class 1). The lists of analysed parameters for both analyses packages are described in inner memo POS-024656. The results of these analyses are presented in Appendix G, Tables G-1 to G-3 and G-10 for metal analyses. The analyses have been carried out by TVO s laboratory and ALS Scandinavia AB. Posiva monitors the ph of the outlet waters pumped out from the underground facilities. The action limit set for ph at the measuring point OL-DI15 is 9.5 (POS-008123, v.2). This value has not been exceeded during the year 2017 (Figure 4-5). Sodium fluorecein is added into the water used in the works in ONKALO and its concentration in the outlet waters can be used to get a view of the relative proportion of human-induced waters in the total amount of outlet waters. The EC value of outlet waters can also indicate the origin of water (groundwater vs. tap water). In general the sodium fluorescein values of the samples in 2017 varied between 20-100 µg/l. The EC values of outlet waters in 2017 varied between 1.5-3.0 ms/cm, with few values over and under these values. Nitrate and sulphate concentrations in the sedimentation pool and along the outlet ditch are presented in Figures 4-9 & 4-10. In the end of 2016 elevated nitrate levels were observed in all measuring points. Nitrate levels were still high during 2017. Reason for Elevated NO3 levels in outlet waters of ONKALO are caused by explosives used in the underground excavation works. Sulphate concentrations in outlet waters have been slowly rising since 2012. During 2017 samples from measuring points OL-PO1 and OL-

38 DI1 indicated descending trend in SO4 levels. Suspended solid levels in outlet ditch are usually less than 50 mg/l (Figure 4-11). During 2017 high values of suspended solids were detected in sedimentation pool but not in the outlet ditch. The amount of some most common metals, that could be found in fresh waters, were analysed also from the ONKALO outlet ditch samples. During 2017 no metals were analysed from the measuring point OL-PO1. The results of Onkalo outlet waters are presented together with the results of the ditch running from the rock heaps (See 4.2.3). Chloride, sodium and strontium level were clearly higher in measuring points OL-DI15 than in OL-DI1 and OL-DI14 and alternatively the zinc and nickel levels are clearly higher in measuring points OL-DI14 than in outlet waters of Onkalo. Otherwise there were no notable differences between different ditches and no harmful amount of metals like cadmium, nickel or lead was found. Examples of some results are presented in Figure 4-12 and all the results are presented in Appendix G. Figure 4-4. Locations of the sedimentation pool, the discharge tube and the outlet ditch, as well as locations OL-DI1 and OL-DI15 (red dots) used for monitoring in 2017. Measuring weir OL-MP5, located in the outlet ditch, is also shown in the figure with green triangle. Map data: Topographic database by the National Land Survey of Finland and Posiva Oy.

From the ditch OL- DI14 two samples were taken in 2017. Lead-values that are not shown in bars were >0,01 µg/l (e.g. Pb-values for OL-DI1). 4.2.3 Drainage water from rock heaps Obligatory monitoring of the waters running from the rock and earth piling area to Flutanperä area in the southern side of the Olkiluoto Island are monitored by Posiva. Monitoring of the ditch running by the rock piling and crushing areas (OL-DI14) was started in autumn 2006. The ditch water is sampled at least twice a year. Posiva also monitors the possible effects of the rock and earth piling area to the groundwater quality from a nearby shallow groundwater hole OL-EP5. Locations of OL-DI14 and OL-EP5 are presented in Figure 4-13. Samples are analysed for heavy metals, the amount of suspended solids and other basic parameters. Since it has proved problematic to obtain samples from the OL-EP5 and OL-DI14 simultaneously, the samples are now taken on different days if necessary. Furthermore, the amount of water in the ditch has often been insufficient for getting a sample from running water. The analyses have been carried out by TVO s laboratory and ALS Scandinavia AB and the results of 2017 are summarised

44 here (results from earlier years have been summarised by Haapanen 2007 2012 & 2014, Pere et al. 2015 & 2017 and Sojakka et al. 2018a & b). The action limit set for suspended solids at the measuring point OL-DI14 (50 mg/l) (POS- 008123, v.2) was not exceeded in 2017 (Figure 4-14). The sulphate levels in OL-DI14 have fluctuated heavily during the whole monitoring period (2006-2017). It seems that SO4 levels are generally higher in autumn than in spring or summer (See Section 3.2.3). In 2017 the highest SO4 level was measured in November: 789 mg/l. Nitrate concentrations in OL-DI14 have been on average below 100 mg/l (excluding period of high values in 2012-2013, see Haapanen 2014). During 2017 NO3 started to rise again in autumn. Sulphate and nitrate levels in OL-EP5 have remained on the same level during the whole monitoring period (2006-2017). Element analyses were also done on these samples but notable leaching of heavy metals from the rock piling area has not been observed during from the samples taken 2017 (See results for OL-DI14 in Figure 4-12). Analysis results of OL-DI14 and OL-EP5 are presented in Appendix G Tables G-4 and G-5 and G-10 for metal analyses. Nitrate, sulphate, suspended solid and ph results are presented also in Figures 4-14 to 4-17. Figure 4-13.

47 4.3 Limnic systems 4.3.1 Description of the monitoring system There are few limnic systems in Olkiluoto at the moment. The Korvensuo fresh-water reservoir (OL-RS1) is the most important, but it is artificial and heavily controlled. Water of the reservoir is pumped from river Eurajoki. Hydrogeochemistry of the reservoir is monitored weekly by TVO, and the results of the analyses are submitted to the water works. No further summary of the findings is compiled. In addition to the monitoring activity by TVO, Posiva started to monitor the reservoir in 2008. From 2009 onwards the sampling has generally been carried out three times a year. The River Eurajoki is monitored by industrial companies operating on its upper course. The results are published in an annual public report "Eurajoen ja Eurajoensalmen Tarkkailututkimus" (in finnish) by Lounais-Suomen vesi- ja ympäristötutkimus Oy (Koivunen 2018). Also the River Köyliönjoki, running to River Eurajoki, is sampled, but results are omitted from the summary report. In addition to the aforementioned monitoring data published by external companies, Posiva has also started to monitor the chemical characteristics at one location (OL-RWS04) along the river in 2008. See the location of Posiva s monitoring point and those of the mandatory monitoring by other industrial companies mentioned in the following text in Figure 4-18. 4.3.2 Chemical analyses of Korvensuo fresh-water reservoir and the River Eurajoki In 2017, water samples were taken from Korvensuo fresh-water reservoir (OL-RS1) and River Eurajoki (OL-RWS04) in April and June to be analysed for isotopes by the subcontractors of TVO's laboratory. In addition, basic water chemistry parameters were analyzed in April. Results are presented in Appendix C Tables C-1 and C-2. 4.3.3 Water quality and discharges of the River Eurajoki (and Eurajoensalmi Bay) Results of the mandatory monitoring of the River Eurajoki (carried out for other organisations than Posiva) have been presented by Koivunen (2018). Before 2013 the aforementioned annual report has also been discussed in this report but beginning from the environmental monitoring report of 2013 (Pere et al. 2015), the reader is referred to the original reports instead (Koivunen 2014, 2015, 2017 & 2018, Koivunen & Saarikari 2016).

49 4.4 Marine/brackish ecosystems 4.4.1 Description of the monitoring system The marine ecosystem has been part of TVO s mandatory monitoring programme since the 1970s. Physical and chemical properties are sampled several times a year on seven plots by Lounais-Suomen vesi- ja ympäristötutkimus Oy (LSVSY). Some more detailed monitoring is performed on sub-sets of these plots. Phytoplankton is analysed with a comprehensive quantitative method (Lepistö et al. 2006) on four sites. Bottom fauna samples are taken once a year on the seawater quality monitoring sites. The main findings of the studies have previously also been summarised in Posiva's annual environmental monitoring reports but starting from the environmental monitoring report of 2013 (Pere et al. 2015), the reader is referred to the original reports instead (Turkki 2014-2017, KVVY 2018). The reports are publicly available through the Centre for Economic Development, Transport and the Environment (ELY-Keskus). Earlier Posiva monitored water quality parameters at three locations three times a year. Monitoring of quality parameters ended during 2016 (See Chapter 2 and Appendix A). Hydrogeochemical characterisation of seawater samples is still in the monitoring programme and these samples were taken in August 2017 from four locations. The results of hydrogeochemical characterisation are presented in Appendix D. Locations of sea sampling sites are presented in Figure 4-19. Figure 4-19.

50 TVO monitors fish stocks by test fishing every four years. Results of the previous test fishing in 2014 were presented by Peltonen (2015) and are summarised in WR 2015-45 (Pere et al. 2017). Fishing activities are followed up by interviewing professional fishermen every other year. The fishery survey concerning year 2017 was made by Sami Ojala/KVVY Oy (Ojala 2018). The report is originally written in Finnish and has been freely translated to this report in English (in Section 4.4.2). The report is available through the Centre for Economics Development, Transport and the Environment (ELY-Keskus). The variation of sea water level affects some of the results presented in this report, and is shown in Figure 4-20. Figure 4-20. Sea level fluctuations at Rauma mareograph in 2017, difference from the N60 system sea level. Data by Finnish Meteorological Institute.

51 4.4.2 Fishery monitoring results In 2017 only one professional fisherman was active in the marine areas surrounding Olkiluoto (same situation as in survey done in 2015). Other professional fishermen who have worked earlier in the Olkiluoto sea area have reported to discontinue their profession. In 2017 fisherman used different kind of fishing nets (fishing nets for herring and bottom set gillnets), trap nets and fyke nets. The most effective fishing net was fyke net (7,8 kg fish/day) and the most used fishing equipment was bottom set gillnet (87.8% use). (Ojala 2018) In 2017 the fishing in the Olkiluoto sea area continued year-round. The fishing area is located in the front of Olkiluoto in shallow waters and in the shelter of the islands. The fishing effort (the number of fishing traps used in month) stayed in the same level around the year, February and March being the exeptions, when the number of fishing times dropped. (Ojala 2018) The size of total fish catch in the Olkiluoto sea area in 2017 was 23,1 tons (double as match as in 2015). In 2017 the most significant prey species in Olkiluoto area in 2017 was roach (Rutilus rutilus). The amount of roach catch was 10,9 tons (47 % of the total catch). Other prey species abundant in total catch were perch (Perca fluviatilis) and bream (Abramis brama). Compared to year 2015 the size of the Baltic herring (Clupea harengus), bream and roach catches have increased and pike (Esox lucius) catch have decreased (Table 4-4). (Ojala 2018) According the fishermen all the fish species have decreased in the area and fishes have moved from deep waters to shallow waters. Fishermen mentioned that seals (Halichoerus grypus) and great cormorants (Phalacrocorax carbo) are affecting negatively to fishing. (Ojala 2018) Casual fishing in Olkiluoto area was also surveyd. The size of fish catch for casual fishermen in 2017 was 11,2 tons. The most common fishing equipmement used were different kind of fishing nets. Fishing hooks, spinners and fish traps were also used. The most abundant prey species were perch (26 % of total catch), pike (16 %) and roach (10 %). According casual fishermen algal blooms, turbidity of the water and animals, like seals, are distracting the fishing activities.(ojala 2018)

Next time this wide-range biodiversity study will be carried out around 2025. Before this no vegetation (including edibles, like berries) or animal-related surveys will be implemented within the monitoring programme. Section 4.5.3 lists the terrestrial animal related studies done earlier. The results concerning the berry and mushroom sampling between 2009 and 2015 were reported by Helin (2013a), Pere et al. (2017) and Sojakka et al. (2018). Forest areas on Olkiluoto island has earlier been monitored and investigated on several plots (FIP=Forest Intensive monitoring Plot, MRK=Wet deposition sampling plot). The result of these studies were published in annual monitoring reports (e.g. Aro et al. 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014 & 2016). The last forest monitoring report is for the year 2016 (Aro et al. 2018 b). Commissioned by TVO, Fieldworks of a general biodiversity study were carried out in Olkiluoto in 2013 and the results were compiled in 2014 by Ramboll (Lehvola & Ojala 2014). A short summary of the study was presented in WR 2015-45 (Pere et al. 2017). 4.5.2 Liiklanperä Natura 2000/Old forest conservation area The Liiklanperä old forest conservation area is situated in the southern part of the island. The area has been established in 1993 and it has a high conservation status on a national level (Asetus vanhojen metsien suojelusta 1115/1993). This area and some areas around it have later also been included in the Natura 2000 programme. The construction of ONKALO could theoretically affect the vegetation within this area if major and longterm changes in the groundwater level would occur. Some plants are depended on the soil

53 water of the capillary fringe which is locating just above the groundwater level. Subsidence of groundwater level would mean that capillary suction couldn t move water upward to these plants. These plants would suffer from drought and eventually die out. Results yet suggest that subsidence of groundwater level has usually only minor effects on vegetation on sites were groundwater level is normally below the depth of 2,5 meters. (Ahokas & Sallasmaa 1998) Waters accumulated to the encapsulation plant construction site are mainly pumped to Korvensuo direction (north) but natural direction of surface runoff is towards Liiklankari (south). Surface waters running from construction site could contain some substances that are harmful to environment (e.g. cement due to its high phvalue). Furthermore, the dust from construction activities and rock piling area, as well as noise from the construction and operating of ONKALO could also reach this area. Posiva's activities shall not cause any harmful effects to the nature of the conserved area, noise conditions are also regulated. Earlier the potential effects of Posiva s activities were monitored in the FIP-areas. Three of the FIP-areas (OL-FIP4, -10 & -11) were located in or near the Natura 2000-area. Researches in the FIP-areas included e.g. understorey vegetation surveying and dust monitoring. No dramatic changes in vegetation coverage have been noticed on the FIPplots. Concerning the dust effects, most of the analysed elements had not accumulated on the needle surfaces along the monitoring network. In conclusion, no harmful effect of the human activities were observed in the nature concervation area during 2009-2016. (Aro et al. 2018a & b, Sojakka et al. 2018). Today the condition of nature conservation area is monitored by sampling the ditch running trough the area (Figure 4-21) and making noise measurements. The measuring weir OL-MP4 is located in the nature conservation area ditch. According the samples taken from OL-MP the sulphate levels in the ditch are clearly higher than in other measuring weirs but no harmful amount of metals like cadmium, nickel or lead have been found. (Section 3.2.3 earlier in this report). At the borderline of the Natura 2000 area, closest to Olkiluodontie road, noise is mainly caused by the traffic and not related to ONKALO. On some occasions, noises from the ONKALO construction site can also be heard. (Section 4.1 earlier in this report). In addition the groundwater in or near the nature conservation is monitored annually. The salinity (TDS) of the groundwater in monitoring holes near the conservation area has rised since 2001 possibly due to road salting but this phenomenon has not been observed in the groundwater monitoring hole that is located inside the nature conservation area. Results of these groundwater analyses are presented in annual Hydrogeochemistry monitoring reports of Olkiluoto (e.g. Vuorio et al. 2018).

No report was been written since, but the list of hunted animals in Olkiluoto by local hunting club (Olkiluodon Metsästyseura ry) is presented in Table 4-5 (game birds) and 4-6 (game mammals). Small mammal studies have been carried out by Nieminen et al. (2009), Nieminen & Saarikivi (2008) and Ranta et al. (2005). The radioecological study by Roivainen (2006) also contained some data on small mammals. Reptiles and amphibians (Nieminen & Saarikivi 2008) and ground beetles and ants (Santaharju et al. 2009) were surveyed in 2008. In 2009, a line transect sampling of ants and snails was conducted (Nieminen et al. 2009). Earthworms were sampled in 2009 as well (Nieminen et al. 2009). Carabid beetles were sampled in 2014 from Olkiluoto and ants sampled in 2010 and 2012 from Olkiluoto and reference areas. Results of these studies are reported by Haavisto et al (2018). Bird inventories on Olkiluoto Island have been carried out by Yrjölä (1997, 2009). Monitoring of birds on the sea areas near Olkiluoto during the breeding season has been reported by by Haapanen (2010) and Alho & Sojakka (2018).

57 4.6 Private drilled wells The private drilled wells (OL-DWH2, OL-DWH3, OL-DWH5) in active use are sampled once a year for chemical composition. In 2017, the water tables of wells were measured in 16.8. (OL-DHW2, -3, 5) and 20.12. (OL-DHW2, -5). The results are presented in Figure 4-22. Generally it can be concluded that in 2017 the groundwater tables in the wells were a little lower than in 2017 but fluctuation follows reference data from Olkiluoto area (OL-PP1, -9 & -10; shallow wells in bedrock that are not affected by ONKALO). No unexplained changes or effects of ONKALO were observed. The chemical contents were sampled 16.8.2017 and analysed by the Water Protection Association of the River Kokemäenjoki (KVVY). Chloride, iron, manganese and ph results from 2003 2017 are presented in Figures 4-23 to 4-26. Other results are presented in Appendix H. In general, the water quality parameters were in the same orders of magnitude as in the previous years. Compared to last years results, the sulphate levels in OL-DHW2 have decreased highly (210 mg/l <0,5 mg/l) and manganese levels in OL- DHW5 have increased highly (32 µg/l 260 µg/l). In the well OL-DHW2 colour index, electrical conductivity, chloride, manganese, sodium and cloudiness values exceeded highly the quality recommendation limits for drinking water set by the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health (Decision 401/2001). High colour index is typically caused by metals or colourful organic compounds, like humic acids. High value in electrical conductivity expresses high amount of dissolved salts (like NaCl) in water. Chloride does not have known adverse health effects but it is known to affect the taste of the water and cause corrosion in the water system, even with low concentrations. (Oravainen 1999) Based on research done by the Finnish National Institute for Health and Welfare (THL) it has been concluded that having manganese concentrations higher than 100 µg/l in the drinking water could cause harmful health effects (Komulainen 2013). In the well OL-DHW2 water was clear and smelled mouldy. The quality recommendation limits for drinking water were exceeded for colour index and cloudiness in the well OL-DHW3 and for colour index and manganese in the well OL-DHW5. Of the analysed bacteria Escherichia coli (3 cfu 1 /100 ml) and Coliform bacteria (9 cfu/100 ml) were found from the sample from OL-DHW5. Quality recommendations for E.coli are < 1 cfu/100 ml and for Coliform bacteria < 100 cfu/100 ml in drinking water. Other parameters, if not mentioned above, are considered to fulfill the requiremets set for household drinking water. 1) In microbiology, a colony-forming unit (cfu) is a unit used to estimate the number of viable bacteria or fungal cells in a sample.

61 5 RESULTS III: BASELINE OF MONITORING OF RADIOACTIVE RELEASES Radioactivity in the environment is currently being monitored by the nuclear power plant operated by TVO. Samples from air, terrestrial environment, terrestrial foodstuffs and marine environment are however relevant for Posiva as well. In 2014 Posiva also established a plan for defining the radiological baseline before the operation phase of the repository. Posiva's own baseline studies are due to begin in 2018. The major anthropogenic sources of radionuclides in the area originate from the Chernobyl fallout in April 1986 and from authorised effluents and air emissions from the nuclear power plant. The most common nuclides clearly originating from the power plant include, for example, Mn-54, Co-60 and Ag-110m (not exclusively). During 2017 small amounts of Ru-106 were found in autumn from several samples in Olkiluoto (air, deposition, landfill runoff water and suspended matter). At the same time Ru-106 observation were made also in other European countries. Origin of Ru-106 isotope remains unknown. (Julin 2018) Naturally abundant nuclides, such as Be-7 and K-40 are found in every sample if determined. Their concentrations represent natural variations in the ecosystem and also reflect the quality of the measurement. In addition, the behaviour of these elements and nuclides is relatively well known enabling, for example, model adjustments against the measurements. The current radioactivity monitoring locations used by TVO are shown in Figure 5-1. The results of radionuclide analyses in 2017 are shown in Appendix I. When Posiva's own monitoring for radioactivity in the environment is started in 2018, new observation points will be established in addition to the current monitoring locations used by the power plant to fulfill the environmental radioactivity monitoring requirements set for the repository and the encapsulation plant. Some examples of radionuclides in terrestrial environment are given in Figure 5-2. Radionuclides in terrestrial and aquatic environments and in food chain were sampled in 2017. National scale comparison values can be obtained from publications of the Finnish Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority (STUK). Since 2010, Posiva has carried out sampling of crop plants, aquatic macrophytes, and bottom fauna, as well as soil and water in order to obtain more data on site-specific concentration ratios (e.g. Helin et al. 2011, Kangasniemi et al. 2011, Helin 2013b, Kangasniemi & Helin 2014). In addition to the Olkiluoto Island, some of the reference lakes and mires (e.g. Haapanen et al. 2009, 2010, 2013, Aro et al. 2018c) have been included in the sampling program. These, however are not done as part of the monitoring program but long-term safety case studies instead. Results of the reference area studies are used in the long-term safety Biosphere assessment work (e.g., Posiva 2013b, 2013c). The studies are mentioned because the aforementioned sampling locations in Olkiluoto and its surroundings can be also used in the baseline monitoring for radioactivity in the environment. During 2017 no sampling campaigns for elemental analyses took place in Olkiluoto or the reference areas due to data-lock for biosphere modelling (See Chapter 2).

65 6 SUMMARY This report presents the results of Posiva s environmental monitoring of Olkiluoto Island for the year 2017. In 2016 the monitoring programme was updated to concern years 2017-2019. This current surface environment monitoring programme is described in inner memo (POS-023624). The need to the update the programme came from the timing of the data-lock in safety case for operating license application. The surface environment monitoring programme has been producing initial data for the biosphere modelling. Because the data-lock for the biosphere modelling for safety case was set in the end of 2016, could the production of data needed in the biosphere modelling be ceased by the end of 2016. The current surface environment monitoring programme is focusing on the traditional environmental impacts of contruction and operation works of the final disposal project. Part of the monitoring is performed by the company running the nuclear power plants on the island, Teollisuuden Voima Oy (TVO). This Working Report presents the main results of Posiva s environmental monitoring programme on Olkiluoto Island in 2017. Results are presented under three topics: 1. Interaction between surface environment and groundwater in bedrock, 2. Environmental impact and 3. Baseline of monitoring of radioactive releases. The main findings of topics 1-2 are summarised below. Monitoring of topic 3 has not begun yet, and thus far, only result tables from TVO s mandatory monitoring have been added to these summary reports. Concerning monitoring sections not producing data in 2017, the reader is referred to the summaries of the previous reports (e.g. Pere et al. 2017). Concerning interaction between surface environment and groundwater in bedrock, records were maintained e.g. on changes in infrastructure and other land use. During 2017 the land use of Olkiluoto was monitored by taking aerial photographies of the area. From the aerial images the increase of industrial areas and growth of new forest on shore-area can be observed. Annual meteorolocigal statistics were derived from weather mast data, and automated measuring weirs produced data on surface runoff. In the monitoring of surface runoff no events deviating from previous years were observed. The sulphate level in the ditch running south of Onkalo-site remains clearly higher than in other monitored ditches. According the Bachelor's thesis by Bohm (2017) the interaction between crushed rock and water in aerobic conditions seems to be apparent reason for the observed exceptionally high sulphate levels in groundwater samples taken from near the surface and surface water samples. Environmental impact analyses included e.g. monitoring of noise, effluent waters, nearby fresh water systems and private drilled wells. The noise level at drill hole OL-L15 and at the visitor centre parking lot have increased from the previous measurement. At Rummintie 50 and at Korvensuo reservoir noise levels have decreased compared to the measurements done in 2016. Traffic noises were heard at Rummintie, by the drill hole and visitor centre parking lot. Some measurement work was done at Korvensuo reservoir and sound of winch could be heard. Battering sounds were heard from encapsulation plant construction site. Bird singing was observed at all measuring sites.

66 The outlet waters of ONKALO site are monitored by a weekly sampling. During 2017, the action limit for ph (9.5) was not exceeded at the measuring point OL-DI15 close to the sea. Sulphate concentrations in OL-DI1 have stayed in about in the same level (approximately 200 mg/l) since 2013. In the end of 2016 nitrate levels (originating from residues of explosives) in OL-DI1 started to rise and stayed high during 2017. High suspended solid values were observed occasionally in the sedimentation pool but not in the outlet water. Nitrate and sulphate contents in the ditches running from the rock heaps started to rise in the end of 2017.The action limit for suspended solids in the ditch water at OL-DI14 (50 mg/l) was not exceeded in 2017. The Korvensuo reservoir and sample point in Eurajoki-river were sampled once during 2017. The local professional fishermen were interviewed and results of these interviews were reported by TVO. Harmful effects on the nature conservation area of old forests or the Natura 2000 area in the southern part of the island were not observed in the surface environment. The water quality of the monitored private drilled wells was good or poor depended on the well in case. Water quality is affected by the natural properties of the area. The water level fluctuations follow the fluctuations observed at the reference sites (shallow wells in bedrock, which are not affected by ONKALO).

75 APPENDIX A. LIST OF CHANGES IN SURFACE ENVIRONMENT MONITORING PROGRAMME In this appendix the list of all changes made to the surface environment monitoring programme is presented. Changes are derived to four tables according the main subjects of earlier reports (A-1.Evolution of geosphere, A-2. Biosphere modelling input data, A-3. Interaction between surface environment and groundwater in bedrock, A-4. Environmental impact). Table A-1. List of changes for geosphere related monitoring studies. Target Target parameters Timescale Change Reason for change Amount of water infiltrating into bedrock Amount of percolation water collected with lysimeters Continuous collection with sampling every 4 weeks during the nonfreezing period of each year Amount of collected percolation water removed from the program starting from 2017. Hydrological modelling does not need new data on amount of percolation water collected with lysimeters. Environmental regulations do not compel Posiva to monitor this parameter. In 2016 Posiva interprets that sufficient dataset has been acquired. Effects of final disposal to infiltrating percolation water are insignificant. Quality of water infiltrating into bedrock Analytical suite 1 (Table 7 2 in POSIVA2012-01) from soil solution collected with lysimeters Chemistry of collected percolation water removed from the program starting from 2017. Hydrogeochemical modelling does not need new data on chemistry of percolation water collected with lysimeters. Environmental regulations do not compel Posiva to monitor this parameter. In 2016 Posiva interprets that sufficient dataset has been acquired. Effects of final disposal to infiltrating percolation water are insignificant.

Target Target parameters Timescale Change Reason for change Environmental impact physical environment Noise Dust from rock crushing and piling Noise level (db A, 10- minute average) 2 times a year No changes Wet deposition: Suite 1 Suite 2 Automated weirs: discharge, ph, EC, water temperature Continuous collection with sampling 1 2 times a month (summer winter) Every 2 nd year Hourly sensor observations Removed from the program starting from 2017. Removed from the program starting from 2017. See above. Redox monitoring removed from 2017 on. In 2016 Posiva interprets that sufficient information on insignificant level of effects caused by the rock dust from Posiva's activities has been acquired in order to cease regular monitoring of this parameter. In future all effects to biota will be monitored through biodiversity studies done on 10 year intervals. It is seen in 2016 that measuring redox-values from the surface ditches does not offer any data that would be of Posiva's interest. Effluent water Automated weirs: Suite 1 Water samples 3 times a year No changes Ditch OL-DI14 from the rock and earth piling area and OL-EP5 shallow groundwater hole: Suite 1, suspended solids ONKALO outlet water, sedimentation pool (OL- PO) (Class A) Water samples 3 times a year No changes Water samples 4 times a year, weekly surveillance of ph and EC. Moved from "Foreign materials". Outlet ditch for ONKALO process water: Suite 1 (OL- DI1 & 15) Water samples 4 times a year No changes Discharge tube for ONKALO process water (OL- DI1): the weekly set of EC, ph, sodium fluorescein Weekly No changes Reorganization of tasks.

Removed from the program starting from 2017. Literature study already written on monitoring possibilities concerning radiation effects in the environment (WR2016-01). Based on the study, it is not possible to monitor radiation effects even with the maximum expected levels of radioactive release from Posiva's facilities during operation.

99 APPENDIX D. RESULTS OF THE HYDROGEOCHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF SEAWATER 1 GENERAL Posiva Oy is conducting a multidisciplinary monitoring programme at the Olkiluoto repository site in Eurajoki, Finland (Posiva 2012). As part of the environmental monitoring of the site, seawater samples are also taken. The first sea water samplings were collected from Eteläriutta and Puskakari (Figure D-1) by Posiva in 1989 and 1994. In August 2017 four seawater samples were collected from Baltic Sea at Olkiluoto site. The aim of the seawater sampling was to get data for the environmental monitoring of the repository site and for the potential connection between the sea and deep saline groundwater during long term pumping of the drillhole OL-KR6. The outlet waters from the underground research facility ONKALO and the future repository are pumped into the sea through a pipeline and a ditch. 2 SEAWATER SAMPLING Seawater samples were collected from four different sampling points (Eteläriutta, Puskakari, Susikari and Pitkäkarinkulma) in the front of Olkiluoto's island. Sampling points are the same from which the samples were collected in 2002 (Paaso 2003), in 2005 (Hirvonen 2006), in 2008 (Lamminmäki 2008), in 2011 (Lamminmäki 2011) and in 2014 (Weckman 2014). Locations of these sampling points are presented in Figure D-1 and coordinates as well as sampling depths in Table D-1.

101 2.1 Sampling method Seawater samples were collected by POSIVA. Seawater is penetrating to the bedrock through bed sediment, and so the samples were collected with Limnos water sampler as near to the sea bottom as possible (approx. 1 m from sea bottom). 2.2 Analysed parameters and pretreatment of seawater samples The water samples were delivered directly to TVO s laboratory from the sampling sites. Most water analyses were carried out in TVO's laboratory in Olkiluoto according to the Posiva water sampling guide (Alho et al. 2017) or TVO's instructions and parameters specified in Posiva's monitoring programme (Posiva 2012). All the laboratory methods are based on standard methods or other generally accepted methods (Appendix 1). Isotope analyses were performed in several subcontractor laboratories. All the analysis methods, detection limits and the uncertainty of the measurements are shown in Appendix 1. 3 ANALYSIS RESULTS The ph values of seawater samples were slightly alkaline and varied from 7.6 to 7.9. The electrical conductivity of the samples varied from 970 to 990 ms/m. According to the Davis's and De Wiest's (1967) classification system water type was Na- Cl for all seawater samples as expected. The salinity of the seawater samples (Total Dissolved Solids, TDS) varied between 5510 mg/l and 5630 mg/l (Table D-2), and according to the TDS-classification (Davis 1964) water was brackish (1000 mg/l < TDS < 10000 mg/l). Temperature of seawater at sampling depth varied between 7.3 and 16 C (Table D-2). Similar temperatures was observed in sea water temperature monitoring during August 2017. Table D-2.

103 4 REPRESENTATIVITY OF LABORATORY ANALYSES 4.1 Charge balance The representativeness of the analyses can be estimated by the charge balance (CB) calculation. The charge balances of the groundwater samples were calculated as a percentage, using the equation 1: CB(%) = (Cations - Anions) / (Cations + Anions) x 100 (1) For this, concentration mg/l, has to be converted into meq/l with the equation 2: meq/l = c charge (1/M) (2) Where c = the concentration of the ion, mg/l, charge = the absolute valence number of ion, meq/mmol and M = the molecular weight of the ion, mg/mmol. The charge balance may vary a lot in dilute waters with low ph and no constant limit can be set for determination of acceptable CB values (Pitkänen et al. 2007). Therefore, converging CB value with increasing chloride concentration is in use for evaluation of Olkiluoto groundwater samples. Acceptable CB is from 10% to 5%, when chloride concentration is between 0 and 355 mg/l, then from 5% to 3%, when chloride concentration is between 355 and 3550 mg/l and 2%, when chloride concentration is over 35500 mg/l (Figure D-2). According to criteria all charge balance values were acceptable.

Charge balance values as a function of chloride concentration. Blue lines represent acceptable CB limits for Olkiluoto groundwater samples (Pitkänen et al. 2007).

104 4.2 Uncertainties of the laboratory analyses The quality of the analyses is checked with laboratory quality control (QC) samples and reference standard solutions. The assigned relative standard deviation (RSD) values are calculated from at least three parallel results. All RSD values are presented in analysis reports (Appendix 2). The RSD values were under 6% for all analyses in all samples, except for OL-SEA1(Eteläriutta) o Total nitrogen 0.25 mg/l, RSD 9 o Ammonium 0.02 mg/l, RSD 19 OL-SEA2 (Puskakari) o Total nitrogen 0.24 mg/l, RSD 14 OL-SEA3 (Susikari) o Total nitrogen 0.27 mg/l, RSD 8 Reason for all higher RSD values was nearness of detection limit of analysis, when even a small deviation between parallel results increases the RSD value. The dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) concentrations and inorganic carbon concentrations calculated from alkalinity results are in good accordance, when all calculated values were 16.8 mg/l while measured values were 17 mg/l for all samples. 5 COMPARISON WITH EARLIER RESULTS Most important results from samplings in 1989, 1994, 2002, 2005, 2008, 2011, 2014 and 2017 are presented in Table D-4. The seawater sample from Pitkäkarinkulma was the least saline (TDS, total dissolved solids) (5510 mg/l), whereas the seawater from Puskakari was the most saline (5630 mg/l). Salinity has varied the most in Pitkäkarinkulma, between 5340 mg/l and 5880 mg/l and the least in Susikari, between 5570 mg/l and 5880 mg/l. Salinity has shown upward trend both in Susikari and Pitkäkarinkulma until sampling in 2011 and turned decreasing after that in all sampling points. In Puskakari the salinity was higher (5970 mg/l) in first sampling in 1989, but decreased to 5620 mg/l until 2002, and then again from top value of 5800 mg/l to 5630 mg/l again between 2008 and recent sampling in 2017. (Figure D-3a).

105 Chloride concentrations follow the changes in TDS. Concentration of chloride has varied the most, between 3020 mg/l and 3390 mg/l in Eteläriutta, whereas the smallest variation has been in Susikari between 3010 mg/l and 3170 mg/l. (Figure D-3b) Sulfate concentration of the Eteläriutta, Susikari and Pitkäkarinkulma decreased notably between 2011 and 2014. Also in Puskakari sulfate concentration increased, but more moderately than in other sampling points. In recent sampling sulfate concentration increased in all seawater sampling points. (Figure D-3c) Potassium concentrations had increasing trend in from 2002 until 2011 in all seawater sampling points. Between 2011 and 2014 concentrations decreased notably, but in recent sampling changes were minor (Figure D-3d). Concentration of calcium reached top values in Eteläkari (98 mg/l) in 2005 and in Puskakari (98 mg/l), Susikari (98 mg/l) and Pitkäkarinkulma (97 mg/l) in 2008. Since then, the concentrations have been decreasing in all sampling points. (Figure D-3e) Changes have been minor in magnesium, bromide and strontium as well as in sodium concentrations in all seawater sampling points.

108 6 CONCLUSION Seawater compositions in four different sampling points are similar. The seawater sample from Pitkäkarinkulma was the least saline (5510 mg/l), whereas the seawater from Puskakari was the most saline (5630 mg/l). Water type was Na-Cl for all seawater samples as expected. Samples were slightly alkaline with ph value ranging between 7.6 and 7.9. Salinity has shown upward trend both in Susikari and Pitkäkarinkulma until sampling in 2011 and turned decreasing after that in all sampling points. Similar behavior as in TDS is seen in potassium and chloride concentrations in Pitkäkarinkulma and in Susikari. With the exception of sulfate and strontium concentrations, all other parameters in all sampling points have decreased in recent sampling.

135 APPENDIX G. CHEMICAL ANALYSES OF SURFACE WATERS IN 2017 In this appendix, detailed results of water quality analyses are presented regarding the rock piling area, ONKALO outlet ditch and measuring weirs. Analyses were carried out by TVO's laboratory for basic water parameters and at ALS Scandinavia AB for element concentration of metals. Outlet waters of ONKALO site are monitored by a weekly sampling for ph. A more comprehensive analysis is carried out a few times per year concerning the sedimentation pool (OL-PO1), outset of the ditch at the end of the discharge tube (OL-DI1) and also downstream along the ditch (OL-DI15), close to the location where the ditch discharges into the sea. These results are presented in Tables G-1, G-2 & G-3. Drainage water from rock heaps is normally sampled in observation wells or ditches (OL- DI14) three times per year. The results are compared with the results from a nearby multilevel piezometer (OL-EP5). Results for OL-DI14 are presented in Table G-4 and those of the OL-EP5 in Table G-5. Chemical analyses of the ditchwater of the measuring weirs were carried out in three times a year at locations OL-MP1, OL-MP2, OL-MP4 and OL-MP5. The results are presented in Tables G-6 to G-9. Element concentrations for surface water samples (OL-DI1, OL-DI15, OL-DI14, OL- EP5, OL-MP1, -2, -4 & -5) are presented in Table G-10. Analysis of water samples has been made without dissolution. Filtration has been performed with a filter of 0,45μm. The samples were acidified with 1 ml ultra-high purity nitric acid per 100 ml. The ICP-SFMS analyses were carried out according to SS EN ISO 17294-1, 2 (modified) and US EPA Method 200.8 (modified). The ICP-AES analyses were carried out according to SS EN ISO 11885 (modified) and US EPA Method 200.7 (modified). For chloride analyses HLPC was used according SS-EN ISO 10 304-1:2009. The uncertainty of measurement (UOM) is given as extended uncertainty calculated with a coverage factor of 2, which gives a confidence level of approximately 95%. For chloride uncertainty is given in percentages (±%).

145 APPENDIX I. RESULTS OF RADIONUCLIDE MONITORING IN 2017 Results from the radionuclide monitoring from the year 2017 are presented in this appendix. In the data tables the uncertainty of the measurement is shown in the column on the right-hand side of the activity concentration as a percentage of the concentration. The uncertainties reported do not include the uncertainty arising out of the sampling method and practice. For sampling periods longer than one day, the starting and ending dates are reported. Activity concentrations are decay-corrected to correspond with the middle of the sampling period. The dates have been printed as day.month notations, e.g. 1.3. is March 1 st.

157 APPENDIX K. CHANGES IN LAND USE Olkiluoto land use statistics from 1946 to 2017 are presented in this appendix (in Tables K-1 to K-4 and in Figures K-1 to K-11). Changes in the land use in Olkiluoto Island are monitored on a regular basis from aerial orthoimages by adopting Corine classification. For the interpretation, the Olkiluoto Island has been divided into a 50 x 50 m grid. All pixels of the grid that were located on land in 2013 were selected for the interpretation. From 2015 onwards, the island of Kuusisenmaa was also taken in to the interpretation. Kuusisenmaa is introduced separately so that the examination of land use changes in Olkiluoto main island would stay comparable through years. The interpretation was done by Haapanen Forest Consulting from 1946 to 2013 and by FM Meri & Erä Oy from 2013 onwards by using aerial orthoimages of the area and GIS-software. Other materials included maps of superficial deposits from the Geological survey of Finland and National Land Survey's topographic maps. A list of remote sensing data (including aerial images) from Olkiluoto is presented in Appendix E. Notes regarding the interpretation: The date the aerial orthoimages were taken affected the interpretation because the images of 2017 were taken almost six weeks before than in 2013. Six weeks at the end of summer is a long time which then affects the visuality of colored infrared (CIR) images used in this interpretation. Also, the time of the day when images are taken changes the visuality of images because of shadows. Shadows are longer the further the pictures are taken from high noon. However, the quality and resolution of orthoimages were very good which helped in the interpretation of tree species and soil type in forests. Some new points were taken in to the interpretation due to post-glacial rebound, succession or human activity. Terrestrial areas: The island of Kuusisenmaa has been taken in to the interpretation starting from 2015. In 2015, a causeway was built to the island and it appeared to be finished in the aerial orthoimages taken in 2017. Most of the forests in Kuusisenmaa are coniferous rocky forests dominated by spruce with some mixed forests. Due to succession and post-glacial rebound some of the reed beds on land had developed to young forests. Most of those points were assigned to deciduous forest. A few points were changed from sea to research arrangements because of the causeway to Kuusisenmaa across the bay. Human activity: There have been several construction activities between years 2014-2017. Some of them are evident in the images that were taken on year 2015 but even more in the images taken in 2017. The most visible changes in human activity are the spread of industry area (mainly work related to contruction of encapsulation plant) on ONKALO site and a new construction area for building a switchyard for Olkiluoto 3-power plant (OL3) near the old switchyard in north shore. North of Flutanperä bay a logistic center with a large yard was built between 2013 and 2015. These changes are also visible in Table K-1 and Table K-2 as the percentage and count of points of industry areas have risen in 2017. On contrary a lot of buildings has been demolished especially from the old accommodation village and from the area between the power plant and Ulkopää cape. Both changes have occurred between 2013 and 2015. Between 2015 and 2017 the sparsely forested area under the main power line was cleared from a wider area to build

158 new transmission lines for OL3. Construction of industrial facilities is presented in in this report in Section 3.1 (Table 3-1). Table K-1.
