. 4 . . . , I. Scope of Investigation This investigation concerned the circumstances surrounding the packaging and transportation of a shipment of radioactive waste from the Union Carbide Corporation in Tuxedo, New York, to the Nuclear Engineering Company burial site in Beatty, Nevada, and its subsequent return. The State of Nevada ordered that the waste be returned because a 55 gallon drum contained improperly packaged liquid. The following persons were contacted: Union Carbide Corporation J. J. McGovern, Business Manager, Radiochemical Products C. S. Konnerth, Manager, Health, Safety and Environmental Affairs M. H. Voth, Manager, Nuclear Operations H. C. Hart, Facilities Engineer L. Thelin, Supervisor, Health Physics Smith Kline and French Laboratories A. T. Compton, Radiation Safety Officer T. Flanagan, Associate Director A. 8erstein, Senior Technician Nuclear Engineering Company, Inc. C. S. Eason, Jr. , Associate Director for Governmental Affairs W. M. Hipsher, Deputy Chief, Radiclogical Control and Safety Officer R. Lambert, Sales Representative Tri-State Motor Transit Company E. D. Rutenkroger, Nuclear Specialist II. Summary Union Carbide Corporation Medical Products Division at Tuxedo, New York,,had 80 drums of low specific activity (LSA) radioactive waste for disposal. Three of the 55 gallon drums had surface radiation levels 'which required that the shipment be transported in an exclusive use vehicle. It was subsequently determined that five of the other 77 drums contained unsolidified liquid without any absorbent material. The five drums containing 10 ml vials with liquid in them came from activities licensed by.the State of New York. Nuclear Engineering Company, Inc. (NECO) arranged with Tri-State Motor Transit Company to pickup waste at six locations in New York, Pennsylvania, < 0

o . 6 . . and Maryland on December 10 - 13, 1979. The first stop made by the Tri- State tractor-trailer was at the Union Carbide facility on December 10, 1979. Union Carbide loaded their waste in the front of the trailer. The loading was done in a manner so that the radiation levels from the vehicle complied with 00T requirements. (See Exhibit 2.) The vaste was to be transported to the burial sites operated by NECO at Ricnland, Washington, and Beatty, Nevada, for disposal. The licenses for both burial sites do not allow the burial of liquid waste except that in scintillation vials. The first incident associated with this shipment occurred when Union Carbide packaged vials of liquid waste other than scintillation vials in the five 55 gallon drums and offered this waste for burial at both burial sites contrary to the requirements for both burial sites. The causes for the improper packaging of waste for burial were: (1) use of inadequate waste disposal procedures; (2) use of inadequate administrative procedures to assure compliance with requirements; and (3) inadequate training of personnel. Union Carbide prepared the required documents for :: hipping and disposal of the waste. Union Carbide incorrectly described the physical form of the liquid material in the five drums as solid. Also, Union Carbiae incor- rectly certified that the waste met the requirements for burial. (See Exhibits 3 and 4.) Union Carbide, the shipper, did not mark the bill of lading to show that exclusive use of the transport vehicle was required, and they did not pro- vide any specific instructions for maintenance of exclusive use shipment controls to Tri-State, the carrier, as required by D0T requirements. As far as the " exclusive use" vehicle requirement was concerned, NECO con- sidered themselves to be the single consignor having exclusive use of the Tri-State transport vehicle. However, NECO did not prepare a bill of lad- ing which showed them as consignor for the material on the vehicle. The failure of Union Carbide to properly identify the shipment as requir- ing exclusive use control and the failure of NECO to identify themselves as the consignor and to exercise proper exclusive use shipment controls constitute tne second incident associated with this shipment. According to Union Carbide, they routinely included drums with surface radiation I greater than 200 mR/hr in such shipments of waste to burial at the Richland, Washington, burial site. It was their understanding that NECO was provid- ing an " exclusive use" vehicle; therefore, they recognized no need to mark j the bill of lading. NECO did exercise some exclusive use shipment controls; however, they were not adequate to provide compliance with 00T regulations. After Union Carbide Corporation, Tuxedo, New York, loaded the waste on the trailer, the Tri-State tractor-trailer was driven to the Tri-State terminal in Nortn East, Maryland. __
_ - -. . . 7 . . A NEC0 representative with a different Tri-State truck picked up waste at four other locations including the Smith Kline and French Laboratories in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, took this waste to the Tri-State terminal, and loaded the waste on the Tri-State trailer containing the Union Carbide waste. Waste from the Smith Kline and French Laboratories was positioned on top of the Union Carbide waste including a 5 gallon metal container. Smith Kline and French Laboratories in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, prepared 60 f've gallon metal pails containing radioactive waste for shipment to the NECO Richland burial site. They did not properly " solidify" the liquid waste in one of these pails. Also, they either failed to close this pail properly or the pail was incapable of providing a leak-tight closure. In either case, the pails were not certified to meet specification 7A requirements, and the pails were not marked as USA 00T 7A Type A packages. Smith Kline and French Laboratories prepared the required documents for shipping and disposal of the waste. Smith Kline and French Laboratories incorrectly described the physical form of the material in one 5 gallon pail which actually contained liquid. Also, Smith Kline incorrectly cer- tified that the waste met the requirements for burial. While the shipment was in transit to the burial site in Richland, Washington, liquid leaked from the five gallon pail from Smith Kline and French Labora- tories down onto the top and sides of a 55 gallon drum which was part of the shipment from Union Carbide. The packaging and shipment of liquid waste from Smith Kline and French Laboratories to the Richland burial site was the third incident involved in this shipment. The leakage of the waste from the pail was the fourth incident involved in this shipment, and its effects were far reaching as 1 far as the Union Carbide shipment was concerned. These incidents were caused by: (1) inadequate procedures; (2) inadequate administrative pro- cedures to assure compliance with requirements; and (3) inadequate train- ing of personnel. The transportation vehicle arrived at the NECO burial site, Richland, Washington on December 18, 1979. All the waste except the Union Carbide waste was unloaded and buried. NECO refused to bury the Union Carbide waste at Richland because 39 of the drums contained special nuclear mate- rial, U-235, which would have been buried under conditions of a new NRC license, and NEC0 disagreed with the conditions of the license. NECO determined that the residual material which had leaked out of the ' leaking 5 gallon container did not have measurable radioactivity. NECO cleaned the top of the Union Carbide drum. However, NEC0 did not move the drums and clean off the sides of the drum. When they cleaned the top of the drum they removed the " Radioactive - LSA" marking from the drum, and they did not replace it. l .g . - ,- -,, - m. . , - - , _ , -w*x,-, J qw-
. . . 8 . . - NECO made arrangements with Union Carbide to have the Union Carbide waste transported to the NECO Beatty, Nivada, site for burial. (See Exhibit 6.) NECO was the shipper of the material. As shipper of the material, NECO failed to mark the bill of lading that exclusive use of the vehicle was required. (See Exhibit 7.) They also failed to replace the " Radioactive - LSA" marking on the drum. The shipment arrived at the Beatty burial site on December 20, 1979. NEC0 started the removal and burial of the material. The drum with the residue on its side was about the sixth drum handled. It was erroneously concluded that the drum had leaked. The NRC inspector at the burial site called his NRC Regional Office, and an information telephone call was made to the State of Nevada by the Region V Office of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The State of Nevada contacted NECO and told them to return the waste ship- ment to Union Carbide. Additional telephone calls revealed that the n.aterial on the side of the drum was the result of leakage of the other container, and on the basis of this information'the State of Nevada gave permission to open the drum to ascertain whether or not it had leaked. The State also required that all of the other drums be examined for evidence of leakage. The drum was opened and it was determined that the drum had not leaked. However, it was found that the drum contained 10 ml vials and some of these vials contained an amber liquid. The Nevada State License does not allow the burial of any liquids except liquids in scintillation vials with absorbent material pre- sent in the packaging. The vials in the drum were not scintillation vials and the drum contained no absorbent material. (See Exhibit 11.) (The liquid was also nonradioactive according to Union Carbide.) The information was given to the State of Nevada. The Governor of the State of Nevada contacted the Chairman of the Board of the Union Carbide Corporation and told him to remove all of the waste shipment f om the Beatty burial site. Also, the governor told the board chairman that no other waste would be received from Union Carbide until the matter was satisfactorily resolved. Union Carbide made arrangements with NECO to ship the waste back to Tuxedo, New York, with Tri-State being the carrier. (See Exhibit 8.) At this time, the most serious incident, the fifth incident, involving transportation occurred. In order to examine each drum for evidence of leakage, NEC0 had disturbed the loading pattern which had resulted in l radiation levels which were in compliance with 00T requirements. A drum I with 800 mR/hr radiation levels at the side and 1000 mR/hr radiation ' levels from the bottom was relocated to the floor of the trail ^e'r immedi- l ately adjacent to the side of the trailer. NEC0 failed to make a radia- tion survey of the tractor-trailer to assure compliance with DOT regula- tions on radiation levels. NECO erroneously assumed that the radiation levels from the material on the vehicle had not changed from the levels of the shipment as it was received. A "Beatty Site Survey Sheet" dated
__ __ . . 9 . .
i December 22, 1979, was prepared showing the radiation levels of the ship- ment as it was received at Beatty instead of the radiation levels of the shipment as it was reloaded. (See Exhibit 9.) As a result, the shipment left Beatty, Nevada, on December 22, 1979, with radiation levels 5 times the DOT regulatory limits. Besides failing to properly load the material for transport, NECO failed to correct the description of the physical form of the wastes in the opened container from solid to liquid on the Radio- active Waste Shipment and Disposal Form. The foregoing failures by NECO in making proper shipments of wastes from their burial grounds were caused by unfamiliarity with shipping require- ments, according to NECO. They are familiar with receiving and burying wastes rather than with shipping wastes. The shipment was received in the Tri-State terminal at Joplin, Missouri, on December 26, 1979. Tri-State found that the maximum radiation level at the surface of the vehicle was 800 mR/hr and 20 mR/hr at 6 feet from the vehicle. This information was reported to Union Carbide and Union Carbide reported the information to the NRC. A Region III inspector went to the Tri-State terminal and verified the high radiation readings. (See Exhibit 10.) A Union C rbide representative went to the Tri-State terminal and directed the rearrangement of the drums so that radiation readings from the sides of the vehicle were within DOT limits. However, the reading from the floor of the vehicle was still about 1000 mR/hr. A Department of Transportation official was contacted, and he stated that all surfaces of the vehicle must meet the radiation requirements. Tri-State put a one inch thick steel plate under the drum and reduced the radiation level from the bottom of the trailer to an acceptable level. The Tri-State tractor-trailer left Joplin, Missouri, on December 29, 1979, and arrived in Tuxedo, New York, on January 2, 1980. A Region I inspector performed radiation readings of the vehicle prior to unloading by Union Carbidc. The radiation levels were within D0T limits. The condition of the outside and insides of the drum upon which the Smith Kline and French Laboratories container had leaked were inspected. It was evident that the Union Carbide drum had not leaked. The drum contained 10 ml vials and some of these vials contained liquid. The liquid in the vials was actually not radioactive, according to the licensee. The inspector took photographs of the drum which caused the return of the shipment. (See Exhibit 11.) According to the entry on the Radioactive Waste Shipment and Disposal Form, the drum with a surface reading of 800 mR/hr contained 27 millicuries of phosphorus-32. Phosphorus-32 emits beta radiation which would be shielded by the steel drum. The Region I inspector measured the gamma radiation l from the drum, and got gamma radiation readings in excess of 500 mR/hr. i .
. 10 . . . .. According to the licensee, this radiation was caused by bremsstrahlung. This was questioned by the NRC because of the high levels of gamma radia- tion from a relatively small amount of phosphorus-32. During a subsequent inspection, another Region I inspector took radiation readings from the drum using a sodium iodide crystal and multichannel ana- lyzer. The gamma radiation from the drum was characteristic of bremsstrah- lung. It was concluded that the drum did contain phosphorus-32; however, the drum probably contained more than 27 millicuries. The licensee is going to redefine its calibration curves for determining the amount of phosphorus-32 in containers. III. Facts Nuclear Engineering Co, Inc. (NECO) has been picking up, transporting, and disposing of radioactive waste material in the East for years. NEC0 has retained Tri-State Motor Transit Company to transport the waste with " exclusive use" vehicles. NECO considers themselves to be the single con- signor having exclusive use of the transport vehicles. Union Carbide Corporation Medical Products Division and Smith Kline and French Laboratories had issued purchase orders to NEC0 for the picking up, transport, and disposal of radioactive wastes at the NECO Richland, Washington burial site. (See Exhibit 1.) NEC0's terms and conditions are given on the back of their Radioactive Waste Shipment and Disposal Form. These are as follows: TERMS AND CONDITIONS . TITLE: Upon NECO taking possession of the Waste either at NECO's site via delivery by common carrier or at Customer's facility by loading on a NECO truck for hauling, as the case may be, title of ownership of the Waste shall thereupon transfer from the Customer and be vested in NECO. W4STE PRODUCTS: Customer represents and warrants that data set forth in the Radicactive Waste Shipment & Disposal Form is true and correct in all respects and is in accordance with all applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations. INDEMNIFICATION: Customer agrees to idemnify NECO, its officers, employ- ees, and agents against all loss and liability whatsoever if such loss or liability results from the failure of the waste to conform'in all material respects to the data supplied on the Radioactive Waste Shipment & Disposal , Form or this shipment fails to meet the standards prescribed by the Depart- ment of Transportation or any other governmental agency having jurisdiction over such matters. l - _ .
.__ ._ ___ . . . 11 . . . . In mid December,1979 NECO arranged with Tri-State and the following com- panies for the pickup of waste for transport and disposal at their Richland, Washington, burial site. Company Location Date Union Carbide Corporation Tuxedo, N.Y. 12/10/79 Smith Kline and French Laboratories Swedeland, Pa. 12/11/79 Smith Kline and French Laboratories West Chester, Pa. 12/11/79 Automation Industries, Inc. Phoenixville, Pa. 12/11/79 Smith Kline and French Laboratories Philadelphia, Pa. 12/12/79 Neutron Products, Inc. Dickerson, Md. 12/13/79 Union Carbide Corporation of Tuxedo, New York, had accumulated 80 drums containing low specific activity (LSA) radioactive material for burial. They placed large labels on the top of each drum which stated " Radioactive - LSA". They also put strips of tape on the sides of the drums marking the drums as containing radioactive material. The identity of each drum was written on a label which was placed on the top of each drum. On December 10, 1979, Union Carbide loaded the drums on a Tri-State Motor Transit trailer for transit to the Nuclear Engineering Company burial site at Richland, Washington. These drums were the first packages loaded on the trailer. There were three drums which had surface radiation levels in excess of 200 millirem per hour; the levels were 800, 250, and 250 millirem per hour. Because of these drums, regulations called for this shipment to be transported in a transport vehicle which had been consigned as exclusive use. Union Carbide loaded the drums on the trailer in a double tier and single tier arrangement in such a manner that the external radiation at the surfaces of the sides of the trailer were less than or equal to 20 mR/hr and the radiation levels at 6 feet from the sides of the trailer were less than or equal to 3 mR/hr. The radiation level at the driver occupied loca- tion of the tractor was less than or equal to 1 mR/hr. (See Exhibit 2.) The sources of the drums with high radiation are given below: Radiation Level Item No. Radionuclide Surface 3 Feet Source 2351 Zr-95 250 8 State Byproduct License Activities 2355 Ag-110m 250 10 Reactor License Activities 2407 P-32 800 30 State Byproduct License Activity l l l
. 12 . ., Union Carbide prepared a bill of lading; the Nuclear Engineering Company " Radioactive Waste Shipment and Disposal Form"; and a " State of Washington Department of Social and Health Services Low-Level Radioactive Waste Ship- ment Certification". (See Exhibits 2 and 3.) These documents showed that: Union Carbide Corporation was the shipper; Tri-State Motor Transit Company was the carrier; and Nuclear Engineering Company, Richland, Washington was the consignee of the shipment. On these documents Union Carbide officials certified that the packaged materials were properly classified, described, packaged, marked, and labeled and were in proper condition for transporta- tion according to applicable Department of Transportation regulations. They also certified that the articles were in compliance with all regula- tions applicable at the designated disposal site. (See Exhibit 4.) Union Carbide, the shipper, did not mark the bill of lading that exclusive use of the transport vehicle was required, and they did not provide any other specific instructions for maintenance of the exclusive use shipment controls to Tri-State Motor Transit, the carrier. (According to a Tri-State Motor Transit Company official, if the bill of lading had been marked that exclusive use of the vehicle was required, their driver would have contacted his offices concerning his instructions to pickup additional waste from other locations.) - According to Union Carbide, their shipments routinely had drums with read- ings in excess of 200 mR/hr, and they did not mark the bill of lading that exclusive use of the vehicle was required. They felt NECO was aware that they routinely had such drums in their shipments. Further they felt NEC0 was providing an " exclusive use" vehicle for transport of radioactive waste. They said they had a NECO contact who coordinated the activities associated l with the loading of the waste on the transportation vehicla i After the Union Carbide waste was loaded on the trailer, the Tri-State tractor-trailer was transported to the Tri-State terminal in North East, Maryland. ! i A NECO representative using a different Tri-State truck picked up waste from the three Smith Kline and French Laboratories and from Automation i Industries. 1 The Smith Kline and French Laboratories in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, had accumulated thirty-four 4.5 cu. ft. cartons, six 4.7 cu. ft, drums, one 7.5 cu. ft. drum, and sixty 0.67 cu. ft. (5 gallon) pails containing LSA radioactive material for burial. Smith Kline and French Laboratories pre- pared a bill of lading; the Nuclear Engineering Company " Radioactive Waste Shipment and Disposal Forms"; and a " State of Washington Department of Social and Health Services Low-Level Radioactive Waste Shipment Certifica- tion." On these documents Smith Kline and French Laboratories officials certified that the packaged materials were properly classified, described, packaged, marked, and labeled and were in ptoper condition for transporta- tion according to applicable DOT regulations. They also certified that ._. . - ,
. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . . 13 . . . , , the articles were in compliance with all regulations applicable to the designated disposal site. The Radioactive Waste Shipment and Disposal Forms showed the following for the 5 gallon pails. No. of Physical Chemical Activity - ' Pails Form Form Radionuclide Millicuries 4 Dry Embalmed C-14 0.5 (each) Animals 26 Dry Absorbed C-14 0.5 (each) Compounds 19 Dry Absorbed H-3 0.5 (each) Compounds 11 Dry H-3 C-3 0.5 (each) The embalmed animals are preserved in formaldehyde, drained dry, wrapped in canvas, and placed in a plastic-lined metal pail. The absorbed com- pounds are liquids absorbed by supercel placed in a plastic-lined metal pail. When the NEC0 representative picked up the material at Philadelphia, he signed the bill of lading showing that NECO had picked up the waste. (See Exhibit 5.) The truck was taken to the Tri-State terminal in North East, Maryland, and the NECO representative transloaded the waste in the truck to the Tri-State trailer containing the' waste from Union Carbide. The tractor-trailer was taken to Neutron Products, Inc., in Dickerson, Maryland, and the NEC0 representative loaded additional waste on the trailer on December 13, 1979. The waste was then transported to the NECO burial site at Richland, Washington. The tractor trailer arrived at the NEC0 burial site at Richland, Washington, on December 18, 1979. Incoming radiation surveys were made. Measurements by the NRC inspector onsite showed radiation readings on the sides of the trailer up to 63 mR/hr. The maximum reading at 6 feet from the sides of the trailer was 8 mR/hr. As was the case at Union Carbide, no radiation readings were taken underneath or on top of the trailer. It is pertinent to this incident that NECO had just received a new license from the NRC Division of Waste Management of the Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards under which NECO disposed of special nuclear material- bearing waste at the Richland site. NEC0 decided not to bury waste con-
taining special nuclear materials under the new license conditions. Since l
. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - - . . 14 . . . 39 of the 80 drums of Union Carbide waste contained special nuclear mate- rial, U-235, NECO decided not to unload and bury any of the Union Carbide waste at the Richland burial site. NECO made arrangements for burial of the Union Carbide waste at their Beatty, Nevada, burial site. Included in , I these arrangements was the sending of Beatty license conditions and certi- l ficate forms to Union Carbide, since Union Carbide had never had any of their waste disposed of at the Beatty site. On December 18, 1979, a Union Carbide official signed a " Certificate" stating that he had read and under- stood the requirements of License #13-11-0043-02 issued to Nuclear Engi- neering Company by the Nevada Department of Human Resources for receipt and disposal of radioactive materials at Beatty, Nevada, as described in paragraphs 5.1.1.3, 5.1.1.4, 5.1.1.5, 5.1.1.6, 5.4.6.1 of the NECO Site Operations Manual, and he further certified that the materials in the shipment were in conformity with those requirements. On December 18, 1979, this same official also signed the Nevada State " Low-Level Radioactive Waste Shipment Certification" which certified to the State of Nevada that the shipment of low-level radioactive waste met all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. (See Exhibit 6.) NEC0 removed and buried the non-Union Carbide waste at the Richland, Washington site. During this removal the NECO people noted that a 5 gal- lon metal container which was placed directly on the top of one of the Union Carbide drums had leaked. NEC0 Richland wiped off the top of the drum. However, they did not wipe off the material from the sides of the drums. When the material was wiped off the top of the drum, the large label stating " Radioactive-LSA" and the label giving the identification of the drum was removed. This drum was included with the material transported to Nevada for burial. (See Exhibit 11, Photograph 3.) The 5 gallon metal container which leaked came from the Smith Kline and French Laboratories facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. As shown on the Radioactive Waste Shipment and Disposal Forms, the amount of either C-14 or H-3 in the 5 gallon pail was small. Therefore, serious contamin- ation problems resulting from the leakage of the package were not encoun- tered. However, by the definition of radioactive material given in 49 CFR 173.389(e), the liquid which leaked from the pail was radioactive material. Smith Kline and French either failed to close the pail properly or the pail was incapable of providing a leak-tight closure. In either case, the pails were not certified to meet specification 7A requirements, and the pails were not marked as USA DOT 7A Type A pachages. It was apparent Smith Kline and French had sent liquid material for burial at the Richland, Washington site. The State of Washington license for burial of radioactive waste issued to NECO does not permit free liquid radioactive waste to be buried at the Richland burial site. As a result of the improper package and material not meeting regulations, the State of Washington sent a letter dated January 11, 1980, to Smith Kline
- . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - . 15 . . . and French denying them the use of the Nuclear Engineering Company, Richland, Washington Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal Site until Smith Kline and French Laboratories established and implemented a suitable quality assurance plan. NECO placed the leaking 5 gallon pail inside another steel container and then placed this container inside a 55 gallon drum with an ab:cibent sur- rounding the inner steel container. This package was then buried at Richland.' Radiation surveys were made of the transport vehicle prior to the transport of the Union Carbide drums from Richland, Washington to Beatty, Nevada. These surveys showed the radiation and contamination levels were within the limits for materials consigned as exclusive use. NEC0 prepared a bill of lading for this shipment and a NECO official signed the bill of lading as the shipper. (See Exhibit 7.) NECO, as the shipper, did not mark the bill of lading that exclusive use of the transport vehicle was required, and they did not provide any other specific instructions for maintenance of the exclusive use shipment controls to Tri-State Motor Transit, the carrier. Again, as was the case when the material was transported from locations in the East to Richland, Washington, NECO, as consignor, did not provide a bill of lading which showed NECO to be the consignor having exclusive use of the transport vehicle. Also again, they failed to originate any ship- ping papers. The " Radioactive Waste Shipment and Disposal Forms" filled out by Union Carbide for the shipment of material to Richland for burial were forwarded with the material going to Beatty, Nevada. (See Exhibit 3.) The Tri-State tractor-trailer arrived at the NECO Beatty, Nevada burial site at approximately 3:00 p.m. on December 20, 1979. The NRC inspector and the NECO Radiation Safety Officer performed an incoming survey of the vehicle. These surveys showed that the radiation levels at the sides of the vehicle and in the tractor cab were well within the DOT requirements. NECO started the removal of the drums from the trailer and placement of the drums in the " burial hole." While unloading the drums from the single tier a white crystalline substance was noted on the sides of two drums. It was assumed that the material on the sides of the drums was the result of leakage of material from the drums. (See Exhibit 11, Photographs 2 and 10.) The NRC inspector informed the regional office of the apparent leaking drums. The Region V Office informed the State of Nevada of the apparent leaking drums. The State of Nevada contacted NECO and told them not to bury the waste but to return the waste shipment to Union Carbide. . - - - -
_ _ - _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - . . 16 . . . .. As a result of this direction from the State of Nevada, the drum which had most of the material on the outside of it was placed in a steel drum over- pack, and the drums which were put in the burial hole were removed from the burial hole and placed back in the trailer. Telephone conversations between the various parties disclosed that mate- ' rial from another package had leaked onto the Union Carbide drums during the transport from the East to Richland, Washington, and that the top of the drums were wiped off but the sides of the drums were not. NECO called the State of Nevada and received permission to open the drum which was suspected of leaking to find if it appeared that the contents of the drum had indeed leaked out of the drum. The drum was removed from the overpack drin. In prying the drum out, a hole was poked in the side of the druu near the top of the drum. (See Exhibit 11, Photograph 4.) The drum was opened. It was determined that the material on the outside of the Union Carbide drum had not'come from the Union Carbide drum and the drum had not leaked. However, it was found that the drum contained 10 ml vials and some of these vials contained an amber liquid. (See Exhibit 11, Photo- graphs 5 and 6.) The State of Nevada license does not allow the burial of any liquids except liquids in scintillation vials. The scintillation vials may be buried when they have been received or placed in a DOT spe- cification steel drum (either 30 or 55 gallon) into which enough absorbent material has been added so that at least twice the volume of scintillation liquid could be absorbed in the event release of all liquid in the vials were to occur simultaneously. The drum contained no absorbent material. Also, the vials were not scintillation vials.
The information supplied by Union Carbide on the Radioactive Waste Ship- ment and Disposal Form stated that the physical form of all the materials in the drums was solids. This was not the case, and incorrect information was supplied on the form. (See Exhibit 3, Page 4 of 4, Item No. 2427). The information on the contents of the drum was given to the State of Nevada. The Governor of the State of Nevada contacted the Chairman of the Board of Union Carbide Corporation and told him to remove all of the waste from Beatty site. The Governor also informed Union Carbide that no other waste would be received from Union Carbide until the matter was satisfac- torily resolved. The State of Nevada told NECO to examine all of the drums for leakers, to ' overpack the suspected drum, and to return the entire shipment to Union Carbide Corporation at Tuxedo, New York. NECO placed the drum which was opened and now had a hole in its side into an overpack drum. The drum was labeled as containing " Radioactive Material- LSA." (See Exhibit 11, Photograph 2.) NECO also examined every other drum for evidence of leakage and to determine the identity of the drum which ~ was opened. (The identity was unknown because the label was removed at i l __ __ _ _ __ - - ---

Richland when the material which leaked from the Smith Kline and French package was wiped from the top of the drum.) As a result of this movement of the drums, the drums which had high surface radiation levels were moved so that the original loading pattern provided by Union Carbide was destroyed. Union Carbide arranged with Tri-State Motor Transit Company to be carrier in returning the 80 drums to the Union Carbide facility in Tuxedo, New York. NECO was to be the shipper and consignor of the material, and Union Carbide was the consignee. NECO prepared a bill 'of lading for the shipment of material from Beatty, Nevada to Tuxedo, New York. (See Exhibit 8.) The bill of lading stated that sole use of the vehicle was required. The same " Radioactive Waste Shipment and Disposal Forms" which had been filled out by Union Carbide were included as part of the shipping papers by NECO. (See Exhibit 3.) In this case, the description supplied for drum 2427 by Union Carbide was known to be inaccurate, since the physical form was known to be liquid rather than solid. A different entry for this item was not made by NECO. NECO also provided a "Beatty Site Survey Sheet," dated December 22, 1979, with the shipment. This survey sheet showed a maximum radiation level at the surface of the vehicle as 19 mR/hr. The maximum radiation level at six feet from the side of the vehicle was 5 mR/hr. The radiation level in the cab of the tractor was less than 0.1 mR/hr. (See Exhibit 9.) The shipment was shipped from Beatty, Nevada on December 22, 1979, and was received in the Tri-State Motor Transit Company terminal in Joplin, Missouri, on December 26, 1979. Tri-State made a radiation survey of the vehicle and found that the maximum readings from the side of the transport vehicle 4 were 800 mR/hr at the surface and 20 mR/hr at 6 feet. This information was reported to Union Carbide, and Union Carbide informed the NRC. A Region III inspector went to the Tri-State terminal on December 27, 1979, and performed a radiation survey giving the following results (maximum readings) (see Exhibit 10): Bottom of Vehicle 1,000 mR/hr - Side of Vehicle 350-400 mR/hr - 6 ft from Vehicle 10-20 mR/hr - Cab < 2 mR/hr - It became apparent that the survey information provided by Nuclear Engin- eering Company for the transport vehicle was incorrect. Nuclear Engineer- ing Company had released a vehicle from the Beatty, Nevada site which had radiation readings from the surface and at 6 feet from the vehicle which
.. -- _. -- - - - .. - . 18 . . . ., exceeded the Department of Transportation (DOT) limits by 5-fold. Accord- ing to Nuclear Engineering, the survey made when the vehicle arrived was used as the survey for the release of the vehicle from the site. An official from Union Carbide Corporation at Tuxedo, New York went to the Tri-State terminal in Joplin, Missouri. On December 27, 1979, the barrels were rearranged so that radiation levels from the sides of the vehicle and 6 feet from the sides of the vehicle were within the DOT limits. However, the readings from the bottom of the trailer were greater than the 200 mR/hr limit with the radiation level approaching 1R/hr. A Department of Transportation official was contacted and it was deter- . mined that the radiation level at all surfaces of the vehicle must meet the DOT requirements. Tri-State put a 1" thick piece of steel under the drum and reduced the reading from the bottom of the trailer to a value less than 200 mR/hr. (See Exhibit 11, Photographs 7 and 8.) The Tri-State tractor-trailer left Joplin, Missouri on December 29, 1979. It was stored in the Tri-State terminal in North East, Maryland, from 7:30 p.m. on December 30, 1979, until 11:30 p.m. on January 1, 1980. It arrived at the Union Carbide facility in Tuxedo, New York on January 2, 1980 at 9:15 a.m. A Region I inspector performed radiation measurements on the surface of the trailer and confirmed that the radiation was at levels within the DOT requirements. The inspector also observed the condition of the drums which were reported to have leaked during transit by NECO and NRC at Beatty, Nevada. The drums in the trailer were in a single tier except for those drums in the very ! front of the trailer, which were stacked on the other drums. There was ! one yellow steel drum which cppeared to be a 65 gallon drum in the trailer, and all the other were black 55 gallon drums with white lids. i The yellow steel drum was opened because it was taken as the overpacked drum. The 55 gallon drum fit inside the yellow drum very closely. The i licensee upended the drum to remove the inside drum. The lid of the 55 gallon drum was very clean, and one had to look closely to find any evi- dence of labels being present. Small pieces of residual gummy material was seen. A significant part of the outside surface had a white crystal- line material on it. Most of the crystalline material was below the upper 4 ! roll ridge on the barrel. A 1/4 by 3/4 inch hole was noted at the top of the side of theibarrel. The barrel was opened. The waste in the barrel came from activfities licensed by the State of New York. The waste contained 1 10 ml vials. Some of the vials were about one-third full of amber liquid. i The amber liquid did not actually contain any radioactivity, according to the licensee. There was no evidence of any liquid or white crystalline material on the inside surfaces of the drum. (See Exhibit 11, Photographs 4, 5, and 6.) , 4 -. - - - ,- .- , - ..n - - , , - - - , , - - - , - - - -
. _ - - _ _ _ _ .. , 19 , - .. The other drum (2424) which had crystalline material on the side was also opened. (See Exhibit 11, Photographs 9 and 10.) It contained compacted solid waste, and there was no evidence of any liquid or white crystalline material on the inside surface of this drum. When the drums of waste.were packaged, Union Carbide had not implemented procedures for radioactive waste disposal. Union Carbide has prepared such procedures which they intend to implement. According to the entry on the Radioactive Waste Shipment and Disposal Form, the 55 gallon drum which has a surface reading of 800 mR/hr contained 27 millicuries of phosphorus-32. Phosphorus-32 emits beta radiation which would be shielded by the steel drum. The Region I inspector measured the gamma radiation from the drum, and got readings in excess of 500 mR/hr. According to the licensee, this radiation is caused by bremsstrahlung. This was questioned by the NRC because of the high level of gamma radia- tion from a relatively small amount of phosphorus-32. During a subsequent inspection, another Region I inspector took radiation readings from the drum using a sodium iodide crystal and a multichannel analyzer. The gamma radiation from the drum was characteristic of brems- strahlung. It was concluded that the drum did contain phosphorus-32; how- ever, the drum probably contained more than 27 milli ~ curies. The licensee is going to redefine its calibration curves for determining the amount of '1hosphorus-32 in containers. Union Carbide took a sample of the material on the nutside of drum 2427. This sample and a sample of supercel were analyzed. These samples were both of silica composition, and they had virtually identical infra-red absucption spectra. This sample and samples from drum 2424 and the mate- rial on t'te truck bed were analyzed by liquid scintillation counting. The C-14 and H-3 activities of these samples were at or belov the minimum detectable activity (MDA) levels. The MDA for C-14 was a picocuries per milligram. The MDA for H-3 was 6 picocuries per milligram. IV. Analysis There were five incidents involved in the facts presented. These are
listed in the order in which they occurred. 1. Liquid waste was packaged and offered for burial at both Richland, Washington, and Beatty, Nevada, burial sites by the Medical Products Division of Union Carbide Corporation contrary to requirements for ' both burial grounds. 2. The shipment of waste from the Union Carbide Corporation facility-in Tuxedo, New York, required exclusive use shipment, and the shipment i ' was not handled properly for an exclusive use shipment by both Union Carbide and NECO. 1 10
- _ _ - _ _ _ - - . . 20 . . 3. Liquid waste was offered for burial at the Richland, Washington, burial. site by the Smith Kline and French Laboratories in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, contrary to burial site requirements. 4. The liquid waste was improperly packaged by Smith Kline and French Laboratories and the liquid leaked from the package during transit from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Richland, Washington. 5. The Union Carbide waste, which was not allowed to be buried in Beatty, Nevada, was improperly shielded for shipment by NECO, and the shipment was made from Beatty, Nevada to Joplin, Missouri, with the radiation levels at the surface of the vehicle 5 times the regulatory limits. These incidents and some of the causal factors are discussed further below. A. Incident 1 Incident I was the cause for the Governor of Nevada to refuse to allow the Union Carbide waste to be buried at the NEC0 burial site at Beatty, Nevada. This investigation disclosed that Union Carbide: (1) failed to solidify liquid waste for burial; (2) improperly described waste on the radioactive waste shipment and disposal form; and, (3) incor- rectly certified that the wastes conformed to disposal requirerants for both the Richland, Washington, and Beatty, Nevada, burial .ites. At the time the wastes were generated and accumulated by Union Carbide, there were no formal procedures addressing the proper preparations of wastes for burial. The personnel accumulating the waste in the barrels apparently did not know that the liquid in the vials had to be solidi- fied. The personnel listing the data on the radioactive waste shipment and disposal form evidently did not have complete information on the physical form and the radionuclide content of the waste. Union Carbide had not implemented a satisfactory method to assure that correct infor- mation was available and listed. Union Carbide had not established and implemented a system to assure that they were correct in their certifications that the waste conformed to burial grounc requirements. B. Incident 2 Incident 2 had causes which involved both Union Carbide and NECO. Union Carbide understood that NEC0 was supplying an " exclusive use" vehicle. NECO understood that they were supplying an " exclusive use" vehicle to all of the involved customers because they picked up and transported only radioactive waste material. Regardless of these understandings, both Union Carbide and NEC0 failed to recognize and meet the DOT regulations for the Tri-State tractor-trai'.er to be an " exclusive use" vehicle. _
. . - 21 . C. Incident 3 Incident 3 was caused by the Smith Kline and French Laboratories in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They did not have suitable controls in effect to assure that liquid material was solidified prior to packag- ing for shipment and burial. If Incident 3 had not occurred, Incident 4, leakage of the material from the package, would not have occurred. If Incident 4 had not occurred, there would have been no questions concerning the Union Carbide material at Beatty, and Incident I would not have been detected. If Incident I had not been detected, Incident 5 would not have occurred. D. Incident 4 Smith Kline and French Laboratories did not have an evaluation and certification showing that the 5 gallon metal container which leaked met the requireaents for a specification 7A Type. A package. It is a possibility that.the container could not meet the requirements. It is also a possibility that the container can provide leak-tight con- tainment, when the container is assembled properly, and they failed to assemble the ccatainer properly. E. Incident 5 Incident 5 was the most serious of the incidents as far as transport- ation and D0T regulations are concerned. According to NEC0, the per- sonnel at Beatty incorrectly assumed that, since they had added nothing to or taken nothing from the material originally shipped to the Beatty site, no change in radiation readings would have taken place, and they could simply use the original radiation survey for their release survey of the transportation vehicle. They failed to consider that they had completely changed the loading pattern of the vehicle and that the drum with a 800 mR/hr reading might be located next to an outside surface of the vehicle. NEC0 personnel at Beatty are accustomed to unloading waste from vehi- cles and disposing of the waste by burial. They are not accustomed to loading vehicles with waste and assuring that the vehicle has radiation readings within the required limits. V. Findings A. Union Carbide Corporation Union Carbide failed to mark " e bill of lading prepared for transport of their waste to Richland, k snington, for burial with the informa- tion that exclusive use of the transport vehicle was required, and they did not provide any other specific instructions for maintenance - - .. - - -
_ _ _ . . . . . 22 . ,, of the exclusive use shipment controls to the carrier, Tri-State Motor Transit Company as required by 49 CFR 173.392(c)(9). Union Carbide was in noncompliance with the intent of NRC regulations 10 CFR 30.41(b)(5), 40.51(b)(5), and 70.42(b)(5): Transfer of byproduct material; Transfer of source material; and, Transfir of ' special nuclear material, respectively. Union Carbide transferred . liquid material in vials other than scintillation vials, and 'the ' Nevada State license for burial of material at Beatty, Nevada, does not allow burial of liquid other than in scintillation vials. Union Carbide failed to correctly indicate the description of the radioactive material for shipment as required in 49 CFR 172.203(d). In the case of container 2427, Union Carbide incorrectly described the physical form and radionuclide (if any) of the material in the container. Union Carbide's operating procedures for segregating radioactive wastes, preparing liquid wastes for burial, and identifying the physical form and radionuclide content of the radioactive wastes were less than adequate. This resulted in liquid waste being improperly packaged for burial. Union Carbide's administrative procedures to assure that packaged radioactive waste is in compliance with DOT and waste burial site requirements were less than adequate. This resulted in an unsuitable package of waste being sent to burial and incorrect certifications to be made. Union Carbide's training of personnel on radioactive waste disposal requirements was less than adequate. This resulted in unsolidified liquid waste being placed in a barrel for disposal at a radioactive , waste burial ground. ! B. Smith Kline and French Laboratories Smith Kline and French Laboratories failed to meet 49 CFR 173.392(a) which requires that LSA radioactive materials, other than materials consigned as exclusive use, must be packaged in accordance with the requirements of 49 CFR 173.395. Regulation 49 CFR 173.395 requires that closures of packages shall be adequate to prevent inadvertent - ' leakage of the contents under normal conditions incident to transpor- tation (49 CFR 173/24(c)(6)), and the packages must meet specification 7A requirements. 1 Smith Kline and French Laboratories failed to meet 10 CFR 30.41(b)(5) in that they sent liquid waste to NEC0 for burial at their Richland, Washington burial site and burial in that form is not allowed by the NECO license for burial of waste. ___ . . __ _
__ _ _- _ - . 23 - . Smith Kline and French failed to correctly describe the physical form of the radioactive material for shipment as required in 49 CFR 172.203(d). They described all the waste in the 55 gallon containers to be dry and one container contained liquid. Smith Kline and French Laboratories did not have suitable controls in place to assure that radioactive waste was properly prepared for shipment and burial. C. Nuclear Engineering Company, Inc. (NECO) 1. East to Richland, Washington As the single consignor having the exclusive use of the vehicle involved in these movement of waste from the East to Richland, Washington, NECO failed: 1) to direct the loading of the waste at Union Carbide, and 2) to properly document with a bill of lading that they were the single consignor for an " exclusive use shipment" which involved which involved six different shippers as required by 49 CFR 173.389(o), Radioactive materials; definitions. NECO as single consignor for a shipment of waste material failed to originate shipping papers as required in Subpart C of 49 CFR 172, Shipping Papers. 2. Richland, Washington to Beatty, Nevada NECO failed to mark a drum as " Radioactive - LSA" as required by 49 CFR 173.392(c)(8), when the drum was transported from their Richland burial site to their Beatty burial site. NECO failed to mark the bill of lading prepared for transport of waste from their Richland burial site to their Beatty burial site with the information that exclusive use of the transport vehicle was required, and they did not provide any other specif- ic instructions for maintenance of the exclusive use shipment controls to the carrier, Tri-State Motor Transit * >mpany, as required by 49 CFR 173.392(c)(9). 3. Beatty, Nevada to Tuxedo, New York NECO failed to perform a radiation survey of the transportation vehicle loaded with Union Carbide waste. NECO prepared an incorrect radiation survey report for the transportation vehicle loaded with Union Carbide waste. , e -
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ - - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . , 24 . . . NECO failed to provide the exclusive use shipment controls required by 49 CFR 173.393(j)(2) and (3) in that radiation levels at the surface of the transport trailers used to trans- port a waste shipment from Beatty, Nevada to Joplin, Missouri, exceeded 200 mR/hr and radiation levels at six feet from the trailer exceeded 10 mR/hr. NECO as consignor for the shipment of waste material from Beatty, Nevada to Tuxedo, New York, failed to correctly indicate the description of the radioactive material for shipment as required in 49 CFR 172.203(d). In the case of container 2427, NECO incorrectly described the physical form of the material in the container. , t - - . _ . _ , . _ . _ _ . . . , , _ . . .
