Docket 50-57 License R-77 Buffalo Materials Research Center Environment, Health and Safety State University of New York at Buffalo 220 Winspear Avenue Buffalo, New York 14215-1034 To whom it may concern:
In preparation for the movement of spent nuclear fuel from the Buffalo Materials Research Center (BMRC), the University at Buffalo plans to remove the cooling tower adjacent to the facility.
The cooling tower has previously been used to cool secondary water and ultimately the primary coolant system, but is no longer necessary for operation with a possession only license.
The area surrounding the exit point of the fuel from the containment structure is closely bounded by structures and equipment which would make it difficult to load fuel into a shipping container, stage materials and support equipment and establish a security perimeter as required during fuel shipping operations. With one side of the property cut off by an underground tank farm used to store liquid radioactive waste, the only option for a site able to withstand the load requirements needed for cask loading operations is the site at which the cooling tower is located. Given the need for an effective, safe fuel loading operation, the option to leave the cooling tower standing and work in a restricted area was rejected.
A written plan has been adopted to remove the cooling tower, dispose of the materials and prepare the site for fuel movement operations. The plan includes general safety requirements, hazard identification, risk mitigation techniques and material release criteria. The radiological survey will be performed in accordance with existing survey methods, based on the guidance supplied in NRC IE Circular 81-07, NRC Information Notice 85-92 and NRC Information Notice 88-22. The plan was 220 Winspear Ave., Buffalo, NY 14215-1034 Office: (716) 829-3301 Fax: (716) 829-2704 Service Request Line: (716) 829-2401 www.ehs.buffalo.edu
approved by the BMRC Operating Committee and by the Reactor Decommissioning Safety Committee (RDSC).
The University at Buffalo is committed to ensuring the entire site will remain in the scope of work for decommissioning and inclusion in the final status survey. This site is identified and included in the BMRC Decommissioning File and the RDSC is aware of the need to include the site in the decommissioning plan and final status survey. The dismantlement and site preparation have been planned such that the area will remain stable until the decommissioning is undertaken.
Work to remove the cooling tower is expected to begin in mid-July, 2004 and the entire dismantlement and site preparation is expected to last only two days. The work will be supervised directly by staff members from University at Buffalo Environment, Health and Safety, Radiation Safety and BMRC to ensure the approved methods and safety guidelines in the work plan are followed.
The University at Buffalo would appreciate the opportunity to incorporate any comments or answer any questions regarding the removal process or in any follow up activities related to decommissioning and survey of the site.
Sincerely, Harry .Mjzler BMRC erations Manager Cc:
Roger McGill, Chairman. RDSC Kevin Thompson, Chairman-elect, RDSC David R. Vasbinder. Director Jeffrey Slawson, RSO
