SYSTEM DESCRIPTION 0f, SOLIO WASTE STAGING FACILITY (SWSF)

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Solid Waste Staging Facility (SWSF) performs no active function. The facility is a passive system for temporary staging of nuclear radioactive waste prior to preparation for shipment and disposal to approved offsite burial grounds. The SWSF has been designed and will be operated in such a manner as to provide assurance that:

A.

The health and safety of the public will be protected.

Occupational exposures will be as low as reasonably achievable B.

(ALARA)

C.

There will be no significant adverse impact on the environment.

2.0 DESIGN DESCRIPTION 2.1 Facility Function The SWS' is used for the collection and temporary staging of the 2.1.1 nuclear waste (solidified and/or Dewatered Resins) generated in processing the fluids during the Recovery cleanup operations at TMI Unit 2.

The SWSF is located as shown on Figure 1, South and East of Unit 2 2.1.2 Natural Draft Cooling Towers within the area protected by the Flood Control Dikes.

Space was allocated to accomodate six (6) modular structures; two (2) modules "A" and "B" are completed, the remaining space is available for additional modules as, or if, required.

2.1.3 Figure 2 shows the typical layout of the SWSF system.

2.1.3.1 Each Module is designed with Sixty (60) Cells forming the com-partments for storing the radioactive waste generated during processing.

2.1.3.2 Each Cell is designed to stage the radioactive waste contained in either One (1) 6 ft, diameter by 6 ft. high liner, or Two (2) 4 ft.

diameter by 4 ft. high liners, or Eighteen (18) 55 gallon, type DOT.17H Drums.

2.1.3.3 Each Hodule is designed to accomodate any comoination of the radio-active waste containers as follows:

Total Wt of One Filled Container Quantity Container 1b.

6 ft, dia. x 6 ft. H Liners 60 (1 per cell) 14,000 or 55 gallon drums 1080 (18 per cell) 800 or 4 f t. dia. x 4 ft. H Liners 120 (2 per cell) 4,500 2.1.3.4 A floor drainage system is incorporated into the module design which discharges into a common sump located between Modules "A" and "B".

The total capacity of the sump is approximately 2750 gallons.

The facility is designed to provide a controlled, but reacy access for material handling operations and to ensure that the operator exposures are as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).

2.3.2 The facility is designed to maintain the dose rates in accordance with 10 CFR Part 20 and to meet the n2gJirements of 40 CFR Part 190 at the site boundary and beyond.

2.3.3 The shielding thickness was calculated to limit the contact dose rates at the outer surfaces of the module walls and the top of the cell covers to wittdn 0.5 mr/hr and 2.5 mr/hr, respectively.

The analysis was based on the types of waste defined in Attachment 1.

No credit was taken for the structure being partially underground.

-. -. 2.3.4 Quality Assurance regJirements for the design, operation and construction of the SWSF are consistent with those specified in Regulatory Guide 1.143.

2.4 Summary System Description 2.4.1 The concrete structure and individual cell covers provide the necessary shielding from the radioactive waste housed in the SWSF Module Storage Cells.

The cell covers with gaskets protect the waste containers from the I

elements and the ingress of precipitation. Slots and weep holes in the upper module structure are provided to direct rainwater to l

external drainage ditetes.

A drainage piping system prevents any spillage / leakage of fluids from accumulating in the cells (i.e.,

floor drain hub in each cell), the system manifold discFarges into a common sump.

2.4.2 The sump compartment, a radwaste seismic concrete structure houses the pump, valves, piping, instrumentation, etc., necessary to perform the functions and control the disposal of any effluent which may collect in the sump.

The compartment is divided into two levels, the upper operator level is shielded by a thick concrete floor from the sump. Operator access is a manhole in the concrete slab roof.

2.4.3 The flow diagram Figure 3 shows the pumping system for the sump ef fluent. All operations are local / manual.

The local alarms and sump level indication are housed in a weatherproof instrumentation panel mounted outside adjacent to the sump compartment on Module "A" st ructure.

. The sump pump, Solenoid Valve #WS-5 and three-way valve #WS-1 (extension spindle) are located in the lower sump while the elec-trical distribution and control panels, valves, etc. are mounted in the operators compartment.

Sump level is measured by a variable capacitance sensor (SWS-LE-01) which transmits the signal to local and remote (Unit-2 Control Room) alams.

Sump influent flow alarms are provided.

The sensing elements (conductivity) f40s. SWS-CE-07 and SWS-CE-08 are mounted in the Module "A" and "B" drain system manifolds.

2.4.3.1 Sump Pumping Operations (See Figure 3)

The SWSF sump is controlled and disposal of the effluent will be in accordance with Unit-2 Chemistry Procedure #1899 and Operating Procedure #2104.4.100.

The sump compartment is posted as a radiological controlled area and surveillance is required prior to entry, to ensure operator exposure will be as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA).

On receipt of the alarm signal (approximately 50% sump level) in Unit-2 Control Room, the above procedures are put into effect and the sequence of operations are as follows:

2.4.3.1.1 Recirculation Mode (Sump effluent mixing to obtain representative sample for analysis).
