EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I
Fort Calhoun Station NRC Inspection Report 50-285/98-16 This routine, announced inspection reviewed the solid radioactive waste management and radioactive materials transportation programs. Included in the inspection were reviews of associated training activities and quality assurance oversigh Plant Sucoort l
. A violation, with four examples, of Technical Specification 5.8.1 was identified related to the solid radwaste management program because the waste stream sampling and l internal quality assurance procedure was not implemented properly (Section R1.1).
. Good performance was noted in the radioactive materials transportation progra Packaging was correctly chosen, surveyed, marked, and labeled (Section R1.2). ;
l
- Documentation associated with solid radwaste management and transpt.tation activities ;
was insufficient to demonstrate the bases for some licensee decisions. Some records i were missing or incorrectly completed. Some forms were outdated (Section R3). !
. Proper training was provided to radiation workers and to specialists that were involved in the transfer, packaging, and transport of low-level radioactive waste and radioactive material (Section 5).
,
. Management oversight of the solid radwaste management program and radioactive transportation activities was minimal (Section R7). l l
. An unresolved item was identified pending the licensee's attempt tu locate l documentation that authorized a change from annual audits to biennial audits of the !
radioactive materials transportation program (Section R7). ,

Waste Stream Samolina In order to classify waste in accordance with 10 CFR 61.55, the licensee implemented a program requiring the periodic sampling and analysis of waste streams to establish correlation or scaling factors between the waste stream classification nuclides and

-4-nuclides which can be more easily measured using gamma spectroscopy technique ,
The program used the elements described in the NRC's waste classification technical I position paper. The dry active waste stream was to be sampled annually. Resin and filter waste streams were to be sampled before each shipment of wast Technical Specification 5.8.1 requires written procedures and administrative policies be established, implemented, and maintained that meet or exceed the minimum requirements of Sections 5.1 and 5.3 of ANSI N18.7-1972 and Appendix A of USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.33. Appendix A of USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.33 includes procedures for the solid waste system. Procedure RW-221, "10 CFR 61 Sampling,"
Revision 3, addresses solid waste and establishes requirements for waste stream sampling. Section 7.9.1 requires that annual samples be taken of the dry active wast Section 7.6 states that annual samples should be collected and sent off site for analysis approximately 9 months after the date of return of the most recent annual sample results from the off-site laborator Laboratory analysis records confirmed that the licensee collected dry active waste stream samples and submitted the samples to an off-site laboratory for analysis in June 1995; the laboratory reported the results in August 1995. The licensee collected dry active waste stream samples next in August 1997; the results were reported in January 1998. However, no records were available to confirm that samples were collected in 1996. The cognizant radwaste operations technician acknowledged that dry active waste stream sampling was not conducted in 1996. The radwaste operations technician also stated that no tracking mechanism was used to ensure that waste stream sampling was conducted. The inspector identified the failure to collect dry active waste stream samples annually as the first example of a violation of Technical Specification 5. CFR Part 20, Appendix G Section Ill.A.3, requires any licensee who transfers radioactive waste to a land oisposal facility or a licensed waste collector to conduct a quality assurance program to assure compliance with 10 CFR 61.55 and 61.56. The licensee's procedures implennnt this requirement. Procedure RW-221, Section 7.15.1, requires licensee personnel ta compare the off-site laboratory analysis with the site gamma isotopic analysis to unsure the results are consistent. In part, it requires verification that cobalt-60, cesium-137, and cerium-144 are within expected levels. The procedure also instructs licensee personnel to note the absence or presence of radionuclides. The procedure requires that documentation generated during the review be maintaine Through personnel interviews and records review, the inspector determined that, for the dry active waste stream, the off-site laboratory analysis was not compared with site gamma isotopic analysis to ensure consistency. The comparison was not conducted between the 1995 analyses or any subsequent analyses of dry active waste stream i samples. The inspector identified the failure to compare off site and licensee analyses as a second example of a violation of Technical Specification 5.8.1.

I
l-5-Procedure RW-221, Section 7.16, includes additional quality assurance instructions.
I Section 7.16.2 requires the licensee to compare the most recent annual waste stream sample analysis with the previous annual analysis to identify new radionuclides and to l determine if scaling factors had changed by a factor of greater than 1 Through personnel interviews and records review, the inspector determined that the most recent annual dry active waste stream sample results were not compared with the previous annual results. As in the previous discussion, this quality assurance comparison was not conducted using the 1995 analysis or any subsequent analysis of the dry active waste stream. Had the licensee met either of the quality assurance l requirements of RW-221, Section 7.15 or 7.16, licensee representatives would have identified that dry active waste stream sampling had not been performed in 199 The inspector identified the failure to compare the most recent annual waste stream sampling analysis results with the results from the previous year as a third example of a violation of Technical Specification 5. Procedure RW-221, Section 7.16.3, requires the licensee to update scaling factors, using the latest analysi A review of the scaling factors used by the licensee to relate the abundances of hard to measure radionuclides to the abundances of more easily measured radionuclides confirmed that the licensee had not revised the scaling factors since 1995. The cognizant radwaste operations technician stated that the 1997 sampling results did not appear to provide information in a usable form because the sampleu evidently were counted individually, rather than as a composited sample. Additional samples were not I
taken to compensate for what the licensee representatives considered poor informatio The failure to update the scaling factors is significant because the licensee had leaking fuel elements. Such circumstances could affect the abundances of radionuclides assumed by the licensee and cause incorrect classification of wast The inspector identified this as a fourth example of a violation of Technical Specification 5.8.1 (50-285/9816-01).
The radiation protection manager stated at the exit meeting that licensee's representatives will review the 1997 dry active waste sample results to determine if it is statistically significant and representative of plant conditions. Then the overlooked quality assurance steps would be performe Waste Classification The licensee did not use a commercially-available computer software code to perform the calculations necessary to classify radioactive waste. Calculations were performed manually. The resulting waste classifications were recorded properly on the shipping manifests; however, some of the waste classificatbn work sheets were missing from the shipping documents. (See Section R3.) Using shipment-specific sample analyses, the radwaste operations technician and the inspector recreated some missing classification

R3 Radiation Protection and chemistry Procedures and Documentation The inspector identified irregularities in the shipping documentation, indicating a lack of j formality in the program. Examples included:
l . Missing waste classification work sheets (FC-RW-218-1, FC-RW-218-4, and l
FC-RW-218-5) were not available to show the basis for waste classification for some shipments, (specifically Shipments 98-02,98-08,98-22). The inspector l- and the radwaste operations technician verified that waste shipments in the corresponding shipments were proper!y classified.
l l
. The survey results for Shipments 97-29, 97-31, and 97-33, did not indicate all ( distances at which radiation measurements were taken. The radwaste l operations technician confirmed that the measurements were intended to confirm compliance with 49 CFR 173.441.
l
. The DOT quantification worksheet (FC-RW-219-1) was not completed correctly l for Shipment 98-02. It indicated the shipment was a Type A quantity instead of a
'
Type B quantity. However, the inspector confirmed that an improper shipping l
container was not chosen as result of the incorrectly completed paperwork.
I . There was no justification for the final curie amount assumed for Shipment 98-02, a spent resin shipment. The inspector confirmed the licensee made a conservative adjustment by assuming a higher activity than indicated by sampling L results. However, the basis for the decision was not documente . Form FC-RW-218-1 listed scaling factors that were no longer valid. The cognizant radwaste operations technician stated that this form was no longer used.

-9- 1 l Observations and findinas Solid Radwaste and Transportation Oversicht Since the previous NRC inspection of this area, the licensee conducted one audit that reviewed both the solid radwaste management program and the radioactive transportation activities. The audit was conducted January 7-21,1997. Licensee I representatives stated that the audit of these areas was conducted bienniall The inspector reviewed the licensee's response to NRC Bulletin 79-19, dated September 21,1979, and noted that the licensee responded that quality assurance audits of all transfer, packaging, and transport activities would be conducted annuall During the inspection, licensing representatives were unable to find documentation of a change to this commitment or determine when the biennial audit frequency was implemented. Licensee representatives speculated that the change in audit interval may have resulted when the process control program audit interval was increased to 2 years through the Technical Specification amendment process. The inspector respanded that the process control program, as described in Section 11 of the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report and Procedure RW-200, " Process Control Program, " Revision 3, did not I address requirements for transfer, packaging, and transport activities as referenced in the licensee's response to NRC Bulletin 79-19. Therefore, changes in the auditing i frequency of the process control program were irrelevant. The question of whether the licensee failed to meet a previous commitment involving audit frequency of transportation activities is an unresolved item pending the licensee's attempt to locate the documentation that authorized the change (50-285/9816-02).
The 1997 audit team included a radwaste-shipping, technical specialist from the licensee's organization. The audit team concluded that the solid radwaste management and transportation programs were effectively implemented but identified that Section 11 of the Updated Safety Analysis Report did not accurately describe the process control program, as implemented. The radiation protection organization responded promptly to I i address the audit findings No surveillance were performed in either of the inspection areas; however, quality control personnel conducted second-person verifications of selected aspects on all radioactive transportation activities. Quality assurance representatives stated the reason for limited oversight of these program areas was that the quality assurance {
auditor primarily responsible for review of the radiological controls activities had been j either ill or on disability leave since September 1997.
l i Vendor Oversiaht l Ana'yses of waste stream samples were performed by two off-site (vendor) laboratorie One of the off-site laboratory's operations was reviewed as part of the licensee's vendor audit ng program. The other operations were not reviewed because the contract with the ,
vender was terminated after 2 years. The licensee reviews vendor operations every j
