Dear Mr. Stolz:
Three Mile Island Nuclear Station Unit 1 (TMI-1)
Operating License No. DPR-50 Docket No. 50-289 On-Site Disposal of Site Generated Filter Cake GPU Nuclear Corporation (GPUN) has proposed to the State of Pennsylvania, Department of Environmental Resources (PaDER), that two pre-operational chemical cleaning basins located at Three Mile Island Nuclear Station, be used as a disposal facility for site generated filter cake. These basins have existed at the site since 1972, and were designed for treatment of industrial waste water.
The filter cake is a diatomaceous earth-based, industrial waste residue generated by the station's industrial waste filtration system.
It does nct contain any measurable amount
- of radioactive fission or activation products.
The Cs-137 concentrations are less than 2 pico curies per gram which is the upper limit of regional background concentration. Thus measured radioactivity of the filter cake, disposed of in the basins, is equivalent to or less than background measurements in the area of TMI.
Attached for your information are GPUN's Phase I and Phase II Submittals to the PaDER which describe the facility and its use. Also enclosed is a letter from PaDER approving phase I of the application; Phase II approval is anticipated shortly.
- Measurable amount is concentrations above LLD (Lowe el of Detection) using approved environmental analysis techniques e.
una spectroscopy.

. SITE DESCRIPTION AND PROPOSED FACILITIES The proposed disposal facilities are represented by two (2) i i
existing chemical cleaning basins which are no longer in service, t
located along the east side of the island, more or less, at the northern end.
Three Mile Island as shown on Plate No. 1 in Appendix A is located in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania roughly 1,500 feet downriver from Middletown and about eight (8) miles downriver from Harrisburg.
1 i
The two (2) existing chemical cleaning basins are contiguous to each other in a long dimension basis with their long axes ex-j tending in an up and downriver direction.
I As noted on Gilbert Associates, Inc. Drawing No. D-744-064, the basins are 425 feet long and 75 feet wide (top of embankmont clope to top of embankment slope).
The west side of the basin j
I
1 consists of a 6-foot top width berm followed by a 30-foot-wide downward sloping embankment to the natural ground at roughly elevation 293.0, while the east side consists of a 28-foot-wide upward sloping embankment which crests at the centerline of the i
cxisting' dike along the Susquehanna River at an elevation of about 307.0.
Elevations within the bottoms of the basins range from 293.0 at the outer extremities to 291.0 at the inner extremities vs. top of dike elevations of 300.0 in both cases.
Slopes of the basin embankments are 2 horizontal to 1 vertical except for the
)
cecess roads to the basins which are on a 4 to 1 ratio (horizontal to vertical).
The basins were constructed about 1972 and basically consist of a 30-mil vinyl liner (PVC) bearing on native earth comprised of medium sand and gravel with some silt (material specified to be free of large cobbles and sharp stones).
Immediately bearing on the vinyl liner rests a 2-foot-thick zone (normal to the bottoms i
cnd slopes) of imported soil on which rests a 9-inch-thick course of crushed stone (PennDOT No. 3A coarse aggregate having a maximum Oize of 2-1/2 inches).
See photographs on Plate Nos. 4, 5 and 6 i
l in Appendix A for details of existing basins.
In addition, each basin has been designed and constructed to be able to be drained via a gravity / pumping system.
At the j
time this study was performed, the basins for all intents and purposes were dry with the exception of some residual water.

4 As we understand the nature of the proposed facilities, the existing basins are to be used for disposal of site generated industrial filter waste which is a non-hazardous industrial waste residue.
SURVEY OF TEST BORING AND TEST PIT LOCATIONS l
The physical layout of all test borings discussed within this report and the determination of ground elevations at such points were performed by forces of the GPU Nuclear Corporation, 1
while the test pit locations were selected by the office of F.
T.
Kitlinski & Associates, Inc. Who also positioned them in the field.
i SUBSURFACE EXPLORATIONS A.
Test Borings, Undisturbed Samples, Ground-Water Observation Wells (Piezemeters) and Field Permeability The drilling of the test borings forming a part of this investigation was performed by the Pennsylvania Drilling Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, under contract to GPU Nuclear Cor-poration during the period July 9-12, 1984.
The borings extended to final depths of 31.0 to 45.0 feet.
Test drilling inspection I
services were provided by F. T. Kitlinski & Associates, Inc. on i
a resident basis' during the entire conduct of the work.
The subsurface exploration program was totally developed i
by GPU Nuclear Corporation and consisted of four (4) standard drive-sample / core borings.
All borings were drilled outside of the existing basins to avoid puncturing the 30-mil vinyl liner 4
i (PVC).
Refer to Plate No. 3 in Appendix A for location of the test i

r borings and also to Appendix B for logs of the test boring results.
In this case, hollow-stem augers ( 3-1/4 " I.D.
x 6-5/8 " O.D. ) we re used to advance the borings.
As the borings advanced, soil samp,les were obtained following the standard penetration test (SPT) method.
The SJT consists of driving a two (2)-inch-diameter (0.D.) split spoon sampler 18 inches into the ground using a 140-pound drop hammer falling freely through a distance of 30 inches.
The number of blows required to drive the sampler each of three (3) six (6)-
inch increments of penetration was recorded on the boring logs.
Soil samples were obtained generally at intervals not exceeding 3 to 5 feet and closer in some cases.
In addition to the split-spoon soil sampling operations, four (4) special undisturbed or Shelby-tube soil samples were procured from the test borings.
Such samples were obtained by hydraulically pressing three (3)-inch outside-diameter thin-wall cteel tubes into the soil under steady pressure, thus extracting them as relatively undisturbed specimens.
Immediately following procurement, each sample was preserved by sealing the ends with wax and then returned to the laboratory of F. T. Kitlinski &
Associates, Inc. in Harrisburg for detailed review and testing.
1 As refusal was encountered to the advance of the hollow-stem cugers or the soil sampling tools, NXM type and size diamond-coring tools capable of recovering rock cores 2-1/8 inches in diameter were employed to continue the borings.
In all cases, the borings were advanced to the bedrock surface and at least ten (10) feet I
into bedrock.
1, _. _
..= --
During the course of executing the boring work, readings were taken at each boring location to determine the presence and i
level of any ground water.
The readings were taken both at the completion of the borings and again in three (3) of the four (4) borings 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> later.
All of the obtained ground-water readings are presented on the test boring logs in Appendix B, and on Table No. I in the same Appendix.
4 1
Af ter completion of the borings, each one was developed j
into a ground-water monitoring well (piezometer) using 2" I.D.
i slotted PVC pipe (0.010" slots).
The wells were typically in-1 stalled in accordance with the detail shown on Plate No. 7 in Appendix B.
Moreover, all wells project above the ground surface by approximately 3.5 to 4.0 feet and are protected with four (4 ) -
inch I.D. steel pipes with locking caps.
See Table No. 1 in Appendix B for observed levels of ground water.
i As the borings were advanced, tests were conducted at i
celected depths to determine the permeability of the in-situ mate-rials forming the subsurface strata.
All permeability tests were performed immediately before the split-spoon samples were taken.
t A constant head was applied during the test by maintaining the wa lu t level at the top of the casing by continually adding water.
The test period covered three (3) intervals of five (5) minutes cach or a total of 15 minutes.
The water losses were measured i
in ounces, quarts, or gallons depending upon the rate of loss

Test Pits i
Subsequent to the drilling of the test borings, four (4) shallow-depth test pits were dug within the basins.
These pits were manually' dug by personnel provided by the GPU Nuclear Cor-poration and were roughly two (2) feet wide by three (3) fee t long.- They extended to depths of 28 to 36 inches so as to expose end verify the 30-mil vinyl liner (PVC), in addition to permitting the examination and logging of the materials covering the liner cnd the lifting of samples for laboratory testing.
In a manner cimilar to the test borings, GPU Nuclear Corporation developed the test pit program and F. T. Kitlinski & Associates, Inc. pro-vided inspection services during the examination process.
The test pits were excavated on July 13, 1984 at locations shown on Plate No. 3 in Appendix A; and their results are included in Appendix B.
Moreover, Plate Noc. 4, 5 and 6 in Appendix A present photographs of the exposed liner in the pits in addition to showing the nature of the spoil excavated from the pits.
All pits were carefully backfilled after they were logged, sampled and photo-graphed.
In addition to the field investigations, site reconnaissances were conducted by Felix T. Kitlinski, Geotechnical Engineer, Soil Scientist and Professional Engineer, of this office on June 19 and July 13, 1984.
The June 19 site visit was conducted as a preliminary to the execution of the test boring program while the July 13 site view was conducted while the test pit work was underway at which -
~
time logging of the test pits was conducted in conjunction with the j
resident field inspector from F. T. Kitlinski & Associates, Inc.

IhBORATORY TESTS Following the completion of the field work, laboratory tests were conducted on representative soil samples, both disturbed and b.:Misturbed, procured during the test boring and test pit work.
These tests consisted of ten (10) natural moisture content tests, six (6) grain-size analyses tests (both sieve and hydrometer),
six (6) Atterberg limits tests, four (4) specific gravity tests, four (4) unit weight determinations (on Shelby-tube undisturbed 4
samples) and two (2) falling head permeability tests.
All tests l
were conducted in accordance with the latest standards set forth I
by the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM).
The results i
of the tests are presented in Appendix C of this report.
No tests were conducted on any of the recovered rock corear however, all rock cores were visually reviewed and classified in detail.
DISCUSSION OF SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS A.
Native Decosits 1.
Soil Series and Phases As indicated on the USDA-SCS Soil Map appended to the Ground Water Module as Exhibit B, the native soil series and phases found at the project site are L and T The L w
g.
w symbol represents the Lindside silt loam-coal overwash, while the T symbol represents the Tioga fine sandy loam.
g The Lindside series is described in " Soil Survey, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania", as prepared by the USDA-SCS (1972),
as' deep, mostly level, moderately well-drained silt loam soils t t
V on flood plains subject to flooding and having thicknesses ranging up to 60 inches.
The coal overwash on the surface is as much as seven (7) inches thick.
The Tioga fine sandy loam, h gh bottom, is nearly level and occurs on high bottoms of low ' tream terraces that normally are above flood s
waters.
Additionally, the Tioga series consists of deep, nearly level, well-drained soils on flood plains and high bottoms along the Susquehanna River and Swatara Creek formed in alluvial deposits from various rocks such as sandstones, limestones and shales.
The subsoil extends to a depth of 60 inches or more.
Furthermore, the subsoils are rated as having moderate permeability, rapid internal drainage and.
moderate available moisture capacity.
Samples of the Tioga series are considered to have been obtained from the borings, thus correlation of the soil is possible in this case.
2.
Grain Size and Plasticity Characteristics Four'(4) samples of the overburden were subjected to laboratory classification tests to determine their grain size and plasticity characteristics.
The results of these tests are presented in Appendix C of this report.
According to the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS), two (2) samples have a CL-ML symbol, one (1) a SM symbol and one (1) a GP-GM symbol.
The CL-ML symbol denotes a dual classification con-sisting of inorganic silts and very fine sands and clays of low to medium plasticity, whereas the SM symbol denotes silty sand.
The GP-GM symbol also denotes a dual classification consisting of poorly-graded gravel, silty gravels and gravel-sand-sil't mixtures.
- 3.
Natural Density and Natural Moisture The four (4) undisturbed soil samples were tested for their unit weight and moisture content.
In addition, two (2) disturbed samples were tested for natural moisture content.
These tests indicate natural dry density values ranging from 89.2 to 99.7 p.c.f. (pounds per cubic foot) and natural moisture contents ranging from 4.4 to 19.5 percent, averaging 13.0 percent.
4.
Soil Permeability Eight (8) field in-situ permeability tests and two (2) laboratory falling head permeability tests were perfonned within or on the overburden deposits.
The results of the field tests revealed variable rates of percolation.
In some cases, virtually no percolation or " water take" was experienced, while in other cases a measurable percolation rate was established.
For the most part, the in-situ tests indicate a permeable to a fairly impermeable natural con-dition.
As noted by the soil permeability tests results in Appendix B, the coefficient of permeability, k, ranges from 1.28 x 10~3 cm/see to 6.96 x 10 cm/sec.
The laboratory
-5 tests on the undisturbed samples disclosed coefficients of
~4 permeability of 5.30 x 10 cm/sec and 1.98 x 10-4 cm/sec.

Overburden Thickness The overburden thickness at the project site is very uniform, the exception being at the location of Boring No.,3 where the' soil thickness is 14 feet greater than the other
..thr'e (3) borings - this condition is solely due to the e
1 boring being drilled on the top of the river dike which is some 14 feet higher than the surrounding area.
As noted on the. boring logs in Appendix B, the overburden thickness is 21.0 feet at Boring No. 1, 21.0 feet at Boring No. 2, 35.0
. feet at Boring No. 3 and 21.2 feet at Boring No. 4.
(These depths include the highly weathered bedrock zone where present which form a part of the bedrock strata and which were pene-i trated by the soil sampling tools.)
In terms of elevation, the bases (contact with the bedrock surface) of the over-burden varies from elevation 271.2 to 273.5, averaging 272.3.
6.
Bedrock a
The project site falls in the Triassic Lowland Section of the Piedmont Physiographic Province.
The bedrock in this area is related to the Gettysburg formation which is a member of the Newark Group of sedimentary rocks.
On a regional basis, the Gettysburg is described as thick red shale inter-bedded with soft red sandstone.
In all four (4) test borings, the bedrock was encountered and cored for depths of at least ten (10) fee t.
The depth to bedrock ranges from 21.0, 21.0 and 21.2 feet respectively. _ _ _ - - -.
e.
e at Boring Nos. 1, 2 and 4; and at a depth of 35.0 feet at the location of Boring No. 3.
However, on an elevation basis, the bedrock surface is very level ranging from 271.2 to273.5baveraging272.3.
Moreover, all four (4) borings
,, confirmed the presence of the Gettysburg formation inasmuch as red shale was encountered and cored in all cases.
7.
Ground Water The ground-water table, as disclosed by the test borings and observation wells, was at a level (July, 1984) 13.3I feet (Boring No.1) to 28.0 feet (Boring No. 3) below existing grade, but averaging elevation 279.7I.
The 28.0-foot depth is due to the increased elevation of the surface of the boring and established observation well which accounts for the approx-imately 14.0-foot of elevation differential.
B.
Man-Made Subsurface conditions Within Existing Basins The four (4) test pits excavated in the existing basins gen-erally confirm the design and configuration of the basins.
All four (4) pits encountered the 30-mil vinyl liner (PVC) at depths of 28 to 36 inches.
Immediately overlying the liner lies a course of well compacted, medium to hard, slightly plastic, brown fine sill / clayey silt which classifies as CL-ML according to the USCS terminology and based on the two (2) laboratory tests.
This course of material ranges in thickness from 18 to 26-3/4 inches, averaging 23-1/2I inches.
Test Pit No. 2 is the only pit which disclosed a coil thickness less than the design thickness of 24 inches.
Repre-cented as a surface course, and overlying the CL-ML soil rone, exists.-.
a'well-graded, durable crushed limestone aggregate course ranging in thickness from 9 inches to 10 inches (as opposed to a design thickness of 9 inches).
This aggregate is classified as PennDOT No. 3A coarse $ aggregate and possesses grading characteristics as fol19ws:-
Sieve Size Total Percent Passing 2-1/2" 100 2"
90 - 100 1-1/2" 35 - 70 1"
0 - 15 1/2" 0-5 As judged by visual inspection on July 13, 1984, the vinyl liner is in excellent condition after approximately 12 years of cervice.
This quality can, in part, be seen by viewing the photo-graphs contained as Plate Nos. 4, 5 and 6 in Appendix A.
- Moreover, o snip of the liner was procured from the tucked-in tail end on the upslope edge of one of the basins for further visual laboratory review.
This additional review confirms the liner to be in good to excellent condition and to be of 30-mil thickness as determined by a micrometer.
SUMMARY
AND CONCLUSIONS Based' upon the evaluation of all available data generated as o part of this investigation and study, the following summary and conclusions are presented: __.
.. ~. -
A.
For tho mo2t part, th3 Ovsrburden at the project site is 21.0I feet thick and extends to elevation 272.3.
The exception to thickness is at the location of Boring No. 3 where the, soil thickness is 35.0 feet due to an increased
,, elevation of 14.0 feet at the test boring point.
B.
Bedrock is present at depths of 21.0 to 35.0 feet below the existing ground surface and rather uniformly exists at elevation 272.3I.
C.
Ground water is present (July, 1984) at depths of 13.3 to l
28.0 feet below the existing ground surface and prevails at a very uniform elevation of 279.4 to 280.1.
These' levels, more or less, match the level of the Susquehanna River which is some 150 to 200 feet away to the east: and considering the stages of the river at various times will fluctuate according to the river elevations, such fluctuations to be almost in-stantaneous due to river proximity and the permeability of the soil strata.
l D.
The native soil deposits are heterogeneous and range from slightly plastic to non-plastic CL-ML to SM to GP-GM types according to the Unified Soil Classification System; and the bedrock without exception, within the depth limits ex-piored, is reddish-brown shale which chiefly is in a soft to medium hard state. _ -
E.
Although all the test borings were drilled outside the immediate limits of the existing basins, there is no reason to believe that the subsurface strata beneath the basins, i.e. below the liner, are any different than those disclosed
..by the borings.
F.
The coefficient of permeability, k, of the native soil deposits as disclosed by the in-situ field permeability tests ranges from 1.28 x 10~3 cm/see to 6.96 x 10-5 cm/sec; while the permeability as revealed by the laboratory tests on two (2) Shelby-tube undisturbed samples indicates "k"
factors of 5.30 x 10~4 cm/sec and 1.98'x 10~4 cm/sec.
The test pits results and visual reviews indicate the existing G.
basins are substantially constructed in accordance with the design, i.e. the topmost zone of the bottoms and side slopes are comprised of a 9-inch-thick crushed aggregate surface course beneath which lies a layer of fine-grained, slightly plastic, silt / clayey silt which is basically two (2) feet in thickness, the exception being at the location of Test Pit No. I where it was disclosed to be 18 inches thick.
At the base of the soil layer exists the 30-mil PVC liner.
The fine-grained soil classifies as CL-ML type which indicates clayey silt / silt soils.
No in-situ permeability tests were conducted in the soil zone overlying the PVC liner because any such tests should be considered academic in this case because of the underlying 30-mil PVC liner.
Nevertheless,.
s the soil zone is judged to have a "k" factor of 10~4 to 10-5 cm/see based upon its in-situ density and character.
l H.
The 30-mil vinyl liner (PVC) was intercepted in all four 5
(4), test pits and in a number. of areas at the top of th'e basin slopes where it is well tucked in and secu ed in the soil on a double fold basis.
In all test pits, the PVC liner was disclosed to be sound and well positioned and in a good to excellent state of preservation.
A snip taken from a runout i
at the top of the basin slope was further examined in the laboratory for its quality which also revealed a good to ex-i cellent state.
In addition, the thickness of the liner was i
j verified to be 30 mils by use of a micrometer.
1 4
I.
The coefficient of permeability of the 30-mil PVC liner was not physically determined because of its basic imperviousnesst however, available literature indicates the Water vapor Transmission characteristics (WVTR) of such a liner will i
have a very low rating to the degree that it can be considered as virtually impervious inasmuch as' transmissibility would be in the range of 3.8 gms/ mil / day /100 sq. in. (Dow Chemical company rating).
Such a permeability rate should easily i
satisfy DER's liner requirement of 1 x 10 cm/sec or less
~
i as specified in their " Chapter 75, Solid Waste Management Rules and Regulations."
i Weighing up all accumulated information, it appears very i
J.
reasonable to assume a position that there will be virtually k
l i '
no communication between the basins and the ground-water table, other than water vapors which might permeate the liner.
K.
As a whole, the basins are rated to be in good to excellent condition with some crushed aggregate repairs being made
- during July to correct some slope washouts created by
" trainee / practicing fire fighters".
The repair zones can be seen by viewing the photographs forming Plate No. 2 in Appendix A.
In final summary, it is concluded that the natural soil con-ditions are favorable for the proposed solid waste disposal facility and that the existing basins compare favorably with the design drawings and specifications in all respects insofar as configuration, profile, gravel and clay linero, and the 30-mil vinyl liner (PVC).
Furthercore, it is the opinion of this office that quality effort was provided as a part of the construction of basins in 1972 and that only a minimal amount of deterioration has taken place since that time.
We will be pleased to explain or amplify our studies at any time if you so request.
Very truly yours, F. T. KITLINSKI & ASSOCIATES, INC.

Detailed Plans and Maps of Landfill 3.
Design
. A.3.(i) Compaction of Solid Waste Thickness of Lift Each basin w!11 be regarded as a cell incorporating the use of one approximately seven-foot thick lift..The filter cake is to be deposited into the basin on a weekly to bi-monthly schedule, depending on quantity of prqduction. An average deposition will consist of 5 to 10 cubic yards (1 yd32 1 ton).
The material will be deposited by dump truck and then spread and lightly compacted by a front end loader. Filling of each basin will begin at a point adjacent to the berm separating Basins A and B and opposite of the point where the access roads enter each basin. The north basin-(Basin A) will be filled in a south to north fashion while the south basin (Basin B) will be filled in a north to south fashion. Prior to deposition on the gravel surface of the basin, plastic sheeting will be placed, to minimize inffitration of the filter cake into the gravel.
This will allow maximum usage of the 0.50% slope in each basin to collect and transport rainwater to the leachate collection sump for treatment in the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Facility.
A.3.(ii) Application of Daily Cover Material, Intermediate, Final Cover Due to the nature and composition of the fill material, daily and intermediate cover materials are not considered necessary. Once each basin is filled to capacity, it will be graded to slope rain away from the basin, covered with plastic sheeting, followed by a 2-foot thick cap of cover soil. The plastic sheeting will minimize infiltration of rainfall into the cell therefore avoiding a " bathtub" effect. A suitable soil similar to that found in several borrow sites located on the southern' portion of Three Mile Island will be used for final cover material.
The cover material is a fine-grained soil that is classified as CL-ML type, which indicates clayey-silt / silt soils.
The soil proposed for the final cover is in essence, identical to that used to provide the 24-inch thick l
layer covering each basin's 30-mil PVC liner.
A.3.(iff) Elevation and Grade of Final Covar The final cover for each basin will slope in an east to west fashion as shown in Figure 3.
This will allow rain runoff to be collected in the l
TMINS yard drainage system and prevent infiltration into the disposal cell.
Final cover elevation for each basin will be 312.0 ft, with an east to west grade of 0.50%.

A 3 (tv)
Managtment of Surfac'e Watar in Accordance with Chapter 102 As shown in Figure 3, surface water outside Basins A and B is directed to the THINS yard drainage ditch via intercept ditch or natural slope runoff i
from outer basin sides. All surface runoff crosses either vegetation or stone stabilized surfaces thus minimizing accelerated erosion and i
sedimentation. Due to previous installation of the basins, there will be no new earth moving, with the exception of capping each basin with a final soil cover.
The final cover will be stabilized with shallow rooted
. vegetation and have a gentle slope leading water towards the site's yard drainage ~ system. Surface water collected within each basin will be treated as leachate via the TMINS Industrial Wastewater Treatment Facility.
A.3.(v) Erosion Control in Accordance with Chapter 102 1
Outer basin slopes have established vegetation'to minimize erosion and interceptor ditches lead to the THINS Yard Drainage System. The inner slopes of both basins are rip-rapped with a 9-inch thick layer of Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Number 3A coarse aggregate.
The final cover surface will be stabilized and revegetated in the manner described in A.3.(vi).
The erosion control of both Basin A and B will be included within the Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan for TMINS.
A.3.(vi) Revegetation Procedures To Be Used All outside slopes of the basins had been seeded, fertilized and mulched in conformance with Sections 804 and 805 of Form 408. Pennsylvania Department of Highways Specification. All slopes are now stabilized with
{
standing vegetation cover. The final cover to the landfill will be treated in a similar manner, using a 50:50 mixture of Crown Vetch and Perennial Rye Grass as recommended in the Pennsylvania State Agronomy Guide.
The seed shall be applied at the rate of 40 lbs. per acre.
i Pulverized limestone shall be applied at the rate of 3,500 lbs. per acre.
The fertilizer shall be a commercial grade of 8-16-16 composition applied at the rate of 900 lbs. per acre. The mulch cover shall consist of hay, applied at' the rate of 2 tons per acre.
A.3.(vii) Schedule of Filling The schedule for filling of Basins A and B will be based on an "as-acquired" basis. Basin A will be filled first. Upon reaching capacity, it will be capped in the manner described in A.3.(iii), and then
- Basin B will be filled. The filter cake will be delivered to the disposal site from the filter cake storage building in 5 to 10 ton batch loads. As j
the filter cake is generated by the Industrial Wastewater Filtration l
System, it is delivered to the Filter Cake Storage Building. Filter cake C i
'is segregated and given a Radioisotopic Assay AnalysisJ Once the filter cake is cleared for disposal. it is placed in a stockpile adjacent to the building. When a sufficient quantity _for disposal is collected in the stockpile, it will be loaded into a dump truck by a front end loader and transported to the disposal basin. - -.. -.
I A.3.(vii1) Site Preparations All site preparations _ for the proposed facility have been completed.
The existing basins have been in place since 1972. Monitoring wells and a geotechnical engineering investigation for the site mere completed in August, 1984 A.3.(ix) Monitoring Devices
Should they be required for monitoring, there are four monitoring wells, in place, surrounding Basin A and B, as shown in Figure 3.
The technical specifications for all four wells was discussed in Phase I, Appendix B.

A.3. (xv) Location of Gas and Oil Wells On-Site Not appitcable, there are none on site.
A.3.(xvi) Location of Public and Private Water Supplies On-Site or Within 1/2 Mile:of Site There are no public or private water supplies on the site. Within 1/2 mile of the site there are approximately 27 private drinking water wells
- 'and 1 public water well, as shown on Figure 1.
Since these wells are across the east channel of the Susquehanna River from the proposed disposal site, they will not be impacted upon by the disposal site in any fashion.
A.3.(xvii) Location of Underground and Surface Minas On-Site Not applicable, there are none on site.
A.3.(xviii) Cross Sections Shown on the Plans Shall be Referenced to the Grid System for Horizontal Location Not applicable.
A.3.(xix) Grades Required for Proper Drainage of Lifts Each basin will be filled as one lift. A slope of 0.50% is already designed into each basin for the provision of drainage to the leachate collection and pumping station.
A.3.(xx) The Design Plans Shall Include a Cross Section of the Access Roads and All-Weather Roads. Identifying Construction Materials Slopes.

Leachate Collection and Treatment Proposal A.4.A.
Location of Collection and Treatment Facilities i
The location of.leachate collection and treatment facilities for the proposed landfill are shown in Figure 2.
The leachate to be collected i
would come from rainfall entering the basins.
It will be collected in a manner similar to that already in use with dewatering the rainfall from j
the basins. The water will be pumped, using established equipment, via i
the pump house, located between Basin A and B, through the TMI-1 Turbine i
Sump and into the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Sump (IWTS). Once i
i transported to the IWTS, the water is treated to meet those discharge requirements stipulated in the THINS NPDES Permit for the IWTS, Discharge Serial Number (DSN) 107.
4 i
By use of the IWTS Air Flotation Separator, excessive solids from the IWTS sump, as introduced by station operation and/or leachate removal from the basins, are transferred to the Industrial Wastewater Filtration System (IWFS). At the IWFS, the solids are removed from the wastewater sludge via diatomaceous earth pressure filtration.
Filtered water is discharged from the station via NPDES Permit DSN 104.
The accumulated solids are dewatered using a hydraulic filter press. The results of the dewatering is the creation of filter cake. A simple flow path schematic of this operation is shown in Phase II, Module 3. Figure 1..

Section B.
Operations Narrative B.I.
Daily Operational Records System As filter cake is generated, it is taken to the Filter Cake Storage Butiding and segregated from other filter cake.
Once placed in the building, a representative composite sample is taken, for routine radioisotopic analysis, per station procedure. Data is screened by TMINS personnel. Upon clearance, filter cake is then stockpiled and disposed of when a suitable quantity (5 to
- 10. tons) is reached.
The filter cake generated and its respective radioisotopic analysis will thus be recorded and maintained.
B.2.
Proposed Landfill Method The proposed landfill method to be used would be a modified trench method.
To start, the filter cake is placed into the respective basin, working from the end opposite the access ramp, spread into thin layers (18-24 inches thick) and compacted. This operation will continue until the desired elevation for final soil coverage is' reached. Final cover material will be obtained from an outside source, as referenced in Section A.3.(xiii).

Module No. 3 - Sanitary Landfill uith Liner-Section 5.
Method of teachate Management and Disposition By using the existing Pre-operational Chemical Cleaning Basins for disposal of TMINS generated filter cake, rainfall, the only source of water capable of.
entering the (basins, can be readily collected and treated as leachate.
In the past, the basins were used to chemically treat water used to clean TMI-1 and 2 equipment prior-to either unit operation, hence the original name, Pre-operational Chemical Cleaning Basins. As such, Basin A and B were designed to be water tight and capable of accumulating and treating water prior to discharge into the Susquehanna. The basins became incorporated into the TMINS NPDES Permit. The original discharge was assigned Discharge Serial Number (DSN) 103 and upon meeting permit guidelines, discharges via DSN 103 went directly into the main station discharge. After the intended use of the Pre-operational Chemical Cleaning Basins was completed, an industrial wastewater treatment system was designed and incorporated into station usage.
The wastewater treatment system was designed as two sections. One section, the Industrial Wastewater Treatment System (IWTS), is designed to take and treat non-radioactive station waste waters.
The NPDES Permit DSN for the IWTS is 107. ' The other section, the Industrial Wastewater Filtration System (IWFS) is designed to take and treat sludges generated by the station's River Water Pre-Treatment Buf1 ding and from the IWTS's Air Flotation Separation Unit, filter out the solids and discharge the filtered water. The NPDES Permit DSN for the IWFS.is 104. The filtered solids from the IWFS are hydraulically pressed and produce filter cake. Both DSN 104 and DSN 107 release treated effluent into the Main Station Discharge (DSN 001). The bypassing of DSN 103 and subsequent. usage of the IWTS and IWFS for the collection, treatment and discharge of rainwater collected in the basins is now accepted procedure, by way of the station's NPDES Permit. DSN 103 is now considered an emergency or alternate bypass route.
It is proposed to continue the use of those methods of management and disposition of rainfall, referring to accumulated rainfall as leachate in the landfill, in the same manner as previously' discussed above.
Figure 1 shows a
~
schematic of what will become the leachate treatment flowpath. As shown in the schematic, the treatment flowpath is a loop.
Material removed from the filter cake in the landfill by rainfall leaching can be reconstituted into filter cake in the IWTS/IWFS treatment process or discharged via DSN 107 under -
j permit conditions of the TMINS NPCES Permit (PA 0009920).
