ENCLOSURE SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT REQUIRED ACTIONS FROM MARCH 30, 2009 DIVISION OF SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT COMPLIANCE EVALUATION INSPECTION During the inspection of the Drum Storage Yard, DSWM observed numerous drums that were full to partially full of either a liquid or solid material. Plant personnel were not able to identity the contents of these drums.
Therefore, by May 29, 2009, TVA SON is required to provide the following documentation:
- 1. Identify each drum that was stored in the Drum Storage Yard that was not empty.
From March 30 through April 1, SON personnel identified twenty-three drums stored in the Empty Drum Yard that were not empty.
- 2. Identify the contents of each non-empty drum.
Visual observation of the drum contents shows the drums contain predominantly water. Eight drums were determined to contain muddy water after confirming no oil sheen and a neutral pH. Eleven drums of oil and water, one drum of diesel fuel and water, two drums of oily solids and water, and one drum of ethylene glycol and water were also identified. The fifteen drums of oil and water, diesel fuel and water, oily solids and water, and ethylene glycol and water were consolidated with like media which resulted in seven final drums numbered 090349 through 090355.
Drum 090349 contains water and a solid material resembling oily sludge and sphagsorb. Drum 090350 contains dilute ethylene glycol. Drums 090351, 090353, 090354, and 090355 contain water with oil ranging from a sheen to approximately twenty-five percent. Drum 090352 contains diesel and water.
- 3. Provide a hazardous waste determination (including documentation. such as analysis, MSDS, etc.) for waste identified in the drums.
None of the drums are hazardous. This was confirmed by sampling and analysis.
Drums 090349 through 090355 were sampled on May 5 and 7 for Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) metals, TCLP volatiles, flashpoint, and pH. Analytical results for TCLP metals, TCLP volatiles, and flashpoint for the samples were received on May 9 and 12 (see attached results). It is suspected that the higher pH drum (090349) resulted from residue from an ammonium hydroxide product name. The pH for this drum was re-checked multiple times to verify it was nonhazardous.
- 4. Identify how the materials and /or waste will be managed/disposed.
The drums containing muddy water were emptied. Final disposal of the seven drums of oil and water, diesel fuel and water, and ethylene glycol and water will be by Holston Environmental Services Inc., TNR 00-001-2088. The drum of oily solids will be sent to TVA's Hazardous Waste Storage Facility, AL2 640 090 005, for re-manifesting and disposal.
It should also be noted that to date, 1389 empty drums from the Empty Drum Yard have been sent to Buckner Barrels Sales Corp. We expect the excess empty drums in the Empty Drum Yard to be shipped by June 30.
