9 Building/Pipe Characterization

  • Concrete Cores Taken In:

- RHR Pit

- Cable Vault

- Containment Walls and Mat (Also Bedrock Cores)

- In-Core Sump

  • Analyzed for:

- Gamma Radionuclides

- Tritium

- Selected Samples analyzed for

  • Transuranic Radionuclides
  • Other Hard to Detect Radionuclides
  • Containment Sump RHR Suction Line Survey

10 Building Characterization Results

  • RHR Pit of the Primary Auxiliary Building

- Significant Interior Surface Contamination

- H-3 Volumetric Contamination of Pit Wall near to Former RWST Area below 25 mrem/yr DCGLs

- Decision: Remove Entirely

  • Cable Vault

- Low Internal Surface Contamination

- H-3 & Sr-90 Volumetric Contamination of Walls and Floors below 25 mrem/yr DCGLs

- Decision: Remove to 4 foot Below Grade

11 Building Characterization (Cont.)

  • Containment Areas other than In-Core Sump

- Significant Surface Contamination of Internal Floors

- Volumetric Contamination of Concrete outside of the Containment Liner below 25 mrem/yr DCGLs:

  • Primarily H-3, Other Radionuclides well below DCGLs

- Decision: Remove Concrete to Containment Liner

  • Containment In-Core Sump

- One Sample (Area of expected highest activation under Reactor)

- Estimates of Levels of H-3 in Concrete to Remain Significantly Higher then Current Volumetric DCGL

- Decision: Difficult Remediation - Use Basement Fill Model

12 Building Characterization (Cont.)

- Initial Contamination Levels Approximately 1 Million dpm/100cm2

- Pipe Decon conducted using 40,000 psi Hydrolazer

- 9 Full Passes of Embedded Pipe

- Post Decon Survey: No Contamination over

Background

- FSS of pipe to be conducted when exterior soil has been removed in October 2004 time frame

13 LTP Revision 1a Demolition Approach

  • Decontaminate Building to Surface and Volumetric DCGLs
  • Conduct Final Status Survey with Building Standing
  • Buildings Demolished to 3 foot below grade
  • Demolition Debris used to backfill the basement

14 Dose Modeling and Final Status Surveys

  • Land Areas

- Three Dose Pathways Included

  • Soil
  • Existing Groundwater

- Areas Impacted by Aquifer Plume

- Buildings

  • Groundwater from Buried Debris Resident Farmer is GWfromDebr GW Existing Soil Total D

15 Revised Demolition Approach Containment Basement:

- Remove Internal Concrete to the Containment Liner

- Perform Final Status Survey of Surfaces and Volumetric Contamination to Building Occupancy DCGLs Except for Inaccessible Areas;

  • Piping to be grouted
  • In-core Sump rendered inaccessible with Flowable Fill

- Calculate Future Groundwater Dose with Basement Fill Model

- Backfill Basement w/Clean Fill to Approximately 3 ft below grade (includes a protective membrane covered with 1 foot of fill)

- Dispose of Building above 4 ft below grade, membrane and sacrificial fill above membrane as Rad Material

- Survey Surface of fill remaining at 4 ft below grade

- Backfill to grade with clean fill and conduct Surface and Subsurface Final Status Surveys after Isolation and Controls established

16 Revised Demolition Approach (Cont.)

  • Fuel Building Spent Fuel Pit: Same Approach as Containment except that liner is to be removed
  • Other RCA Building Basements to Remain (such as B Switchgear & Cable Vault with very low contamination history)

- Characterization Results indicate that Decontamination of Basement may not be required

- Membrane and Sacrificial fill layer may not be required due to low contamination history of structure above 4 foot below grade

- Otherwise approach is same as Fuel Building

17 Basement Fill Model

  • Calculates Dose from Future Groundwater
  • Determines Total Activity Inventory Available for Release to Groundwater from:

- Liner and Embedded Piping Inside Surfaces

- Radioactivity Released from Volumetric Contamination Controlled by Diffusion Rate thru Basement Walls and Flowable Fill (Based on Brookhaven Lab Diffusion Study) for:

  • Containment Walls and Floor Mat
  • In-Core Sump (Includes Flowable Fill)
  • Spent Fuel Pit

18 Basement Fill Model (Cont.)

  • Equilibrium Calculated between Backfill Soil and Groundwater for each Basement
  • Assumptions of Basement Fill Model:

- Backfill Material Kd to be determined by Testing of Actual Backfill Soil Samples at Brookhaven Lab

- No Recontamination of Liner Walls

- No Credit for Containment Liner

19 Basement Fill Model (Cont.)

  • Resulting Groundwater Concentration will be compared to the Groundwater DCGL in HNP LTP Revision 1a to determine dose from Future Groundwater
  • For Land Areas which include a Building Basement, Sum of Doses to Show compliance Includes:

- Soil Dose (per HNP LTP Revision 1a)

- Existing Groundwater Dose (per HNP LTP Revision 1a)

- Future Groundwater Dose calculated by Basement Fill Model (Per Proposed License Amendment)

20 Chapters Effected By LTP Amendment
