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
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 10
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 11
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 12
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 13
Dose Modeling and Final Status Surveys
- Land Areas
- Three Dose Pathways Included
- Soil
- Existing Groundwater
- Areas Impacted by Aquifer Plume Resident Farmer
- Buildings
- Groundwater from Buried Debris 25mr / yr DTotal = DSoil + DExisting GW + DGWfromDebris 14
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 15
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 16
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 17
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 18
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) 19
