20555 Attention:
Mr.

E.
MacDonald, Chief Transporcation Branch Gentlemen:
Subject:
Request for Amendment, Certificate of Compliance 6400, Docket 71-6400
~
The Westinghouse Electric Corporation hereby submits an applica-tion for an administrative amendment to Certificate of Compliance No. 6400 The following changes which have been previously discussed with Mr.
R. Odegaarden (ERC) are requestcd:
1)
Section 5 (b) (1) (iv)
This paragraph is to be changed to read as follows:
" Liquid waste shall be solidified in a 30 gallon drum which is sealco in a plastic bag, etc......."
The reason for this change is that solidifying waste in c. 30-gallon steel drum can pose corrosion problems if acids are used.
Westinghouse has been using a rigid 30 gallon fiber drum with its interior impregnated with polyethy]ene to pre-vent corrosion if acids are used.
2)
Section 5 (b) (2) (v)
Please delete the last statement in this paragraph and replace with " Shipment limits will not exceed the authorized limits of the consignee."
Plutonium waste shipments are limited only to NECO's Richland Wa shi n;' t o n dirpocal facj31ty and are, therefore, subject to the licensing lit,its anc requirenants set forth by the attached license no. WN-1013-2.
