License pages 4-15, 4-16, 4-17 have been revised to incorporate minor changes in IIP doctmentation and controls as indicated and are attached.

Due to direct business ccmpetition with another NBC licensee (SIM #42),

we request that we be informed of any less costly requirerents irposed or approved by NBC Ibgion II/IIeadquarters for license SIM #42 in similar subject areas of a non-proprietary nature. We have previously noted tha existence of such items (Ref. (3) par. d-Reorientation Training) in which Ibgion I inposed a nnre costly requirerent upon UNC-thval Products.

• Docket #70-371 2/24/82 Page 2 of 2 He request that the duration of the license be extended to at least ten years. The system for raintaining license documentation current is now well established and does not need to depend on the renewal for updating.

Enclosed is our check for $76,800 to cover the present renewal fee as listed in 10 TR 170.31.

Air flow sinll be from contamination free areas into potentially contaminated-areas. Within the potentially contaminated areas, air flow shall be from areas of lower airborne concentration to areas of higher airborne concentration.

i Continuous air sampling shall be used to identify there areas based on any i

quarterly averages which exceed 15% of the DAC.

In a large portion of the Building B, the uranium is encapsulated in a retallic cladding and the area is contamination free. Air recycled or exhausted frcm those contamination-free portions of the building shall not be filtered through high officiency particulate filters.

{

4.4.3.1 General Description

.f Rad Waste is generated only in the controlled areas of hiilding D.

%.o separate collection systems are provided of approxirately eqtul soltme. One j

stream from 110tallographic Laboratory Operations and Sectioning Operations is i

referred to as uranium bearing. A second stream, collecting shownr and sink water from clungo rooms and certain Chemistry Lab sinks, is referred to as trace uranium bearing.

e

' Initial collection of the uranium bearing radwuste sin 11 be in one of tv.o 1000 gallon boronated receiving tanks. A representative sanple shall be analyzed for acceptable radioactivity concentration before the tank contents shall be i

l passed through a centrifuge and collected in another 1000 gallon tank. Fram I

this tank, the rad'.suste is punped through filters to one of six 2500 gallon retention tanks.

The trace uranium input shall be collected in its own receiving tank, and is punped through filters into a 2500 gallon retention tank.

Further treatncnt of either input stream shall be contingent on results obtained frca representative sanples of the retention tank contents (batch process) tint have been counted on laboratory equipnnnt. Secondary treatrent 1

as further filtration, deionization, dilution or a ccnbination of these shall be acconplished as required. If the sanple neets control limits, the tank (batch) shall be sanpled for pII (cnd adjusted if necessary to 5 to 8 pII).

Acceptable batches shall be discharged through a final filter and a water noter. A proportional sanple shall be collected downstream fran the discharge.

i nnter for analysis.

(See Part II).

1 4.4.3.2 Effluent Discharge 1

I Treated rachusto nneting 10 CFR 20 Appendix B, Table II,at the point of dis-charge fram the building, shall be discharged into the onsite sanitary septic tank. If the radwaste exceeds the control limit, supervision shall be notified to detemine whether additional treatrent or conbination with other wnstes can be authorized. At no tine sinll the 10 CFR Table II limits be exceeded from the sanitarv septic tank regardless of the voluru that shall be involved.
