FINAL STATUS SURVEY

SUMMARY

REPORT Survey Unit:.

F8340021, Railway External to the IA Survey Unit

Description:

Operating History: The rail spur passes through two sections of the Non-Impacted portion of the site before entering the Industrial Area. The rail system was used to transport radioactive material from the site to the out of state waste disposal facilities.

Even though the packages met DOT requirements for shipment, there is the potential for a small amount of contamination to be deposited along the rail right of way. There were no reports of rail contamination in the HSA and no documented, operational surveys showing evidence of contamination along the rail spur external to the Industrial Area.

Site Characterization: Soil samples were collected along the rail line and analyzed by gamma spectroscopy on site. The mean value was 0.073 pCi/g Cs-137 and the maximum was 0.114 pCi/g. Based on classification procedure (DSIP-0020) and the characterization survey data, the rail spur was classified as Class 3.

Survey Unit Design Information:

The Survey Unit Design Parameters are presented in Table 1 below. The survey unit and measurement locations are depicted on the maps in Attachment 1. Direct measurement locations were randomly determined and 728 m2 were scanned for approximately 12%

coverage. Gamma Direct measurements were taken at each direct measurement location and analyzed with ISOCS / GAA. The instrumentation used for the survey along with the MDC values are listed in Tables 2-1 and 2-2 in Attachment 2.

Survey Results:

A total of 16 direct measurements were made in F8340021. The results including mean, median, standard deviation and range are shown in Table 2. All of the direct measurements were less than the DCGL. None of the scan measurements indicated areas of elevated activity with observed activity below the MDA (0.225 pCi/g Co60, 0.299 pCi/g Cs 137). Gamma Direct measurements were counted to the MDC shown in Table 2-1 of Attachment 2.

Survey Unit Data Assessment:

The survey design required 16 direct measurements for the Sign Test. The critical value and the results of the Sign Test are presented in Table 3. The sample mean and median values were less than the DCGL. The sample standard deviation was greater than the design standard deviation however, both values result in a relative shift greater then 3.0 so no additional samples were required.

Pass the Sign Test? Yes Reject the Null Hypothesis? Yes The survey unit passes all conditions? Yes Page 6 of 7 FSS Summary Report F8340021

Survey Unit Investigations and Results:

No investigations were required for either direct or scan measurements and no investigation results are reported.

ALARA Statement:

As stated in Chapter 4 of the LTP, as long as the residual activity within the survey unit is less than the DCGL (i.e. the survey unit average activity is less than the DCGL and the EMC criterion has been met), the ALARA criterion has been met.

Changes in Initial Survey Unit Assumptions:

The survey unit was designed as a Class 3 land survey and the sample results are consistent with that classification. The variability of the survey results was greater than the characterization data used for survey design. Both values result in a relative shift greater than three, therefore no additional sample are required. No potential areas of elevated activity were detected.

==

Conclusion:==

The FSS of this survey unit was properly designed as a Class 3 survey based on Table 5-4 of the LTP. The required number of direct measurements was made and the scan coverage met the requirement of Table 5-6 of the LTP. All of the direct measurements were less than the DCGL. No investigations were required.

The direct measurement data support rejection of the null hypothesis, providing high confidence that the survey unit satisfied the release criteria and that the data quality objectives were met.

It is concluded that survey unit F8340021 meets the release criteria of 10CFR20.1402.
