REPORT OF SOILS EXPLORATION ZION SOLUTIONS ZION NUCLEAR POWER PLANT INDEPENDENT SPENT FUEL STORAGE INSTALLATION

1.0 INTRODUCTION

October 2, 2008 L-72,070 Presented in this report are the results of the soils investigation performed to determine the general subsurface conditions for the proposed construction of an Independent Spent Fuel Storage facility. The proposed structure will be constructed at the Zion Nuclear Power Plant in Zion, IL. This work was performed in general accordance with Technical Specification Subsurface Investigation Specification Z-5701 prepared by Sargent and Lundy and dated July 29, 2008. 2.0 FIELD WORK A total of two(2) soil borings (1-20 and 1-21) were performed for this project with each of them being extended to a depth of 100.0 feet. Boring 1-20 was subsequently converted into a seismic cross hole survey source hole. Additionally, two (2) boreholes were drilled and completed with 3" PVC casing for cross hole seismic testing. Upon completion of the drilling and testing, ground surface elevations as well as Northing and Easting coordinates were determined for the drilling locations using a Trimble R8 GPS. The vertical and horizontal data shown on the Boring Location Plan was retrieved from a National Geodetic Survey data base located approximately 1.2 miles south of Zion, Illinois. Sargent & Lundy L - 72,070 October 2, 2008 The boreholes were initially advanced by 4 1/4" hollow stem auger methods to the ground water table and then completed by rotary wash methods using bentonite and potable water in accordance with ASTM D 5783. Upon completion, each borehole was sealed with cement-bentonite grout placed by tremie methods. Soil samples were collected at 1-20 on 2.5 foot intervals for the entire 100 foot depth. At location 1-20 the sampling interval was 2.5 feet for the first 10 feet and 5.0 feet thereafter. Standard Penetration Tests (SPT) - N Values (ASTM D 1586), were determined using an automatic hammer which allows a 140 pound weight to free fall from a 30 inch drop to drive the sampler. The samples were collected using standard split spoon procedures during SPT since granular soils and/or very stiff clays prevented the use of Shelby tube samplers. Liners were not used with the split spoon samplers. Dynamic energy measurements have not been made on this automatic hammer. However, Pile Driving Analyzer's (PDA) have been used to process dynamic measurements of strain and acceleration between the drill string and similar hammers made by the same manufacturer (Boart Longyear). The Average Energy Transfer Ratio is accepted as 75% for this model hammer. The soil types were logged in the field by the drill crew and representative portions of each sample were contained in glass jars per ASTM D 4220 and brought back to our laboratory. Boring Logs defining the soil lithology and ground water observations is included in the Appendix of this report. Ground water depth was determined during hollow stem auger drilling only. The borings were completed using wet rotary methods and therefore, the water levels inside the boreholes at the completion of the drilling were not representative. PVC casing was installed shortly after the completion of the drilling and reaming at location 1-20. Boring 1-21 was sealed with grout immediately following the drilling and sampling to prevent an open hole hazard. Therefore, 24 hour water level readings were not obtained. The ground water depth measured during the hollow stem auger drilling is considered the most accurate indication of the undisturbed ground water levels at the site. Sargent & Lundy L - 72,070 October 2, 2008 3.0 GEOPHYSICAL TESTING Geophysical testing consisting of a Cross Hole Seismic Investigation, was performed at location 1-20. The original bore hole (1-20) was reamed to a depth of 100 feet using a 6" tri cone roller bit and then cased with 3" PVC casing sealed in place with cement-bentonite grout. Two additional holes (1-20A and 1-20B) were drilled using a 6" tri cone roller bit to a depth of 100 feet and were located in a straight line at approximate distances of 10 and 20 feet from 1-20. These bore holes were also completed with the installation of 3" PVC casing sealed in place with cement-bentonite grout. The Cross Hole testing was performed by Geotechnology, Inc. In general conformance with Section 4.31 of ASTM 04428. A copy of the report prepared by Geotechnology, Inc. summarizing the test results is included in the Appendix of this report. Following the testing each of the PVC casings were sealed with bentonite chips which were hydrated upon placement. In addition the PVC was cut off near the ground surface and topsoil was place over the holes. 4.0 LABORATORY TESTING The soil samples obtained from the borings were examined in our laboratory and visually classified according to the Unified Soils Classification System (ASTM 0 2488). Cohesive soils were measured for moisture content (ASTM 0 2216) and unconfined compressive strength (ASTM 0 2166). Add itional testing including grain size distribution (ASTM 0422, 0 1140), Alterberg Limits (ASTM 04318), pH (ASTM G 51) and dry unit weight determinations (EM 1110-2-1906) were performed on samples selected by Sargent and Lundy. The results of this testing has been summarized and incorporated into the Soil Test data Sheets included in the Appendix. Two (2) soil samples selected by the client were analyzed for soluble chlorides (Method 4500CL,C) and soluble sulfates (Method 4500S04, E) by First Environmental Laboratories. A copy of their report is Appended. Sargent & Lundy L - 72,070 October 2, 2008 5.0 CLOSURE The data and results presented in this report are based upon the conditions encountered at the two (2) locations investigated as indicated on the Soil Boring Location Plan. This report does not reflect any variations that may occur between these locations, the nature and extent of which may not become evident until the construction phase of the project. We are appreciative of the opportunity to assist you with this project and look forward to working with you in the future. Please call if you have any questions or are in need of further information.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

0979802.851S 1.1 Site Description. The site consists of an existing nuclear power plant near Zion, illinois. A site location map is presented on Plate 1. The crosshole borings were located approximately 900 feet soufu of fue switch yard within the plant perimeter fence, as shown on the site plan on Plate 2. 1.2 Scope of Work. The scope of work included mobilizing geophysical equipment and personnel to the site, conducting a crosshole seismic test, and processing/interpreting the data. The seismic data were processed, and shear and compressional wave velocities were calculated to detennine dynamic soil properties. The seismic data were plotted and the results are presented in this report. Engineering analysis or reco=endations based on this data are outside our scope of work. 2.0 GEOPHYSICAL METHODOLOGY The crosshole seismic testing method involves generating compressional (P) and shear (S) wave seismic energy at periodic depth intervals within a borehole and measuring the seismic wave travel-times at geophones situated at the source depth between two adjacent boreholes (per ASTM Standard D4428). The seismic wave arrivals at the geophones are transmitted through cables to the seismograph for digital recording. The data are interpreted by analyzing the differences in elapsed travel-time from the source to geophones. P-and S-wave velocities can be calculated for each depfu interval by analyzing the travel-time data. The distance between boreholes may vary wifu depth; fuerefore borehole deviation logging is conducted to adjust fue borehole separation distance wifu depfu for the velocity calculations. 3.0 RESULTS Crosshole seismic testing was conducted using a source boring and two adjacent receiver (geophone) borings, indicated as Borings 1-20 (source), 1-20A (Geophone 1), and I-20B (Geophone 2), respectively, as shown on Plate 3. Crosshole data were recorded on 5-foot intervals throughout the depfu of fue borings. Due to a physical limitation of the crosshole equipment, data could only be collected to a depfu of 97 -feet from the surface. The borings were cased to

========================c-!!! Testing Service Corporation September 15, 2008 Page 2 0979802.851S approximately 99-feet and the downhole equipment requires approximately 2-feet from the bottom of the casing to collect data. Seismic velocities calculated between the source boring and the two geophone borings are presented on Plates 4 and 5. A table of all tabulated values and velocities is presented on Plate 6. Plates 7 through 9 are plots of the deviation from vertical for the three borings used for the crosshole test. Due to the inherent noise in the earth, and lateral variations in soil velocities between the test borings, some variations in velocities were calculated between the two receiver holes. An average velocity is plotted on the crosshole data plots that allows a smoother fit to the data. Densities used for the moduli calculations were based on lab values provided by the client as wet uoit weights. @ Ill/nrad (In I,cycled paper
