TASK DESCRIPTION FOR TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE IN THE REVIEW 0F COMPOSITE 111G11 INTEGRITY CONTAINER TOPICAL REPORTS B&R NO. 50-19-04-01 FIN NO. D1082
1.0 Background
NRC Regulation 10 CFR Part 61, "Licensing Requirements for Land Disposal of Radioactive Waste," establishes a requirement that Class B and Class C low-level radioactive wastes (LLW) must have structural stability. Also, some Class A wastes are required to have structural stability if it is buried with Class B or C wastes or to assure compliance with specific license conditions in effect at currently operating disposal facilities.
Part 61 defines a structurally stable waste form as one that, "... will generally inaintain its physical dimensions and its form, under the expected disposal conditions,...".
Part 61 defines a period of time of 300 years that stable waste forms are to maintain their structural stability.
Currently three principal means of providino structural stability to LLW have been identified as acceptable by the NRC; (i) placement in a "high integrity container," or alternative structure where the container or structure provides the stability, (2) solidification with materials (referred to as solidification agents), where the mixture of the wastes and the solidification agent results in a waste form that is structurally stable, and (3) stability is provided by the waste itself (as with some reactor components).
Following the 1982 promulgation of Part 61, the NRC began accepting for review Topical Reports developed by vendors who are raarketing both solidification agents and high integrity containers which have generic applicability.
NRC is in the process of reviewing these Topicat Reports to determine whether the preposed waste forms and containers will meet the stability requirements of Part 61. Three Topical Reports submitted soon after the promul 61 are from vendors marketing High Integrity Containers (HICs) gatien of Part that are rnade from liigh-Density Polyethy12ne (liDPE).
Three Topical Rcports received more recently are frora vendors marketing HICs that are made from corrpositions and combinations of materials: low-density polyethylene ccmbined with fiberglass; high-density polyethylene with a stainless steel shell; and, a coated carbon steel. The results of partial reviews that have been performed to.date on the HDPE HIC Topical Reports, along with results of recent NRC spensored studies on HDPE and the designs of the HICs reported in the HDPE HIC Topical Reports, have raised questions regarding the long-term structural stability of HICs that are made using HDPE.
These questions specifically pertain to the ability of the HDPE HICs to withstand high rnernbrane stresses, buckling, ana the development of tertiary creep.
The NRC has similar concerns regarding the HICs corrposed of combinations of materials (Corrposite HICs) marketed by the vendors who have submitted the three recent H!C Topical Reports.

. ;.. y..
The nature of the technical assistance required under this Task Description is to assist in the safety reviews of the Composite ll!C Topical Reports, especially by reviewing information presented in the Topical Reports that is intended to 4
demonstrate the long-term structural stability of the Composite IllCs and their capability to withstand high mentrane stresses, buckling, and the development of tertiary creep.
2.0 Work Required The contractor shall provide the technical staff, facilities, and support
^
personnel to perform the required work within the schedules and levels of effort defined in the following tasks.
All work to be performed.in this project is license fee-recoverable in accordance with the provisions of 10 CFR Part 170 (revised) which became effective on June 20, 1984.
2.1 Task 1 - Topical Report Reviews The contractor shall assist in the review of Topical Reports on Composite lilCs from the following Topical Report vendors:
I 1 LN Technologies, Inc.
2 Bondico Nuclear 3 Babcock and Wilcox, Inc.
The contractor's review shall specifically focus on the information presented in the Topical Report intended to demonstrate the long-term (300 year) structural stability of the Composite HICs, and that the llICs will not buckle, can withstand a
high membrane stresses, and will not develop tertiary creep.
The contractor shall review mathematical structural engineering analysis,
.I physical testing procedures and results, HIC design components, material property information, and administrative procedures presented to accomplish the, demorstrations discussed. The contre.ctor's review shall focus on the data, assun.ptions, methodologies utilized, outputs, equipment used, arguments, and discussions presented as part of the demonstrations. The contractor shall develop findings and, where possible, conclusions regarding the appropriateness, validity, adequacy, and accuracy of the information presented to demonstrate the long-tcrm structural stability of the HICs, and their ability to withstand high membrane stresses, buckling, an6 the development of tertiary creep.
In determining findings and conclusions on the information, the contractor shall use the documents listed in Table 1, other pertinent structural engineering studies already performed, independent structural engineering analysis, and overall sound engineering judgement utilizing the 4
contractor's experience in materials engineering. Where conclusions cannot be reached, and where additional information is required, the performing q
organization shall develop appropriate questions to obtain the required additional information from the Composite HIC vendor.
The findings, 4
I conclusions, and rec,uired questions for each of the Composite HIC Topical Reports shall be documented in a technical letter report, one for each of the i
lopical Reports, as described in Section 3.3 of this Task Description, and submitted to the HRC P.O.in accordance with the schedule described in Section 4.0 of this Task Description, i
l
,'e.,'
(
2.2 Task 2 - Meetings with Topical Report Vendors If required, the contractor shall attend meetings that will be held by the flRC with the three Composite HIC Topical Report vendors. The meetings will be held so that the flRC and the vendors can discuss the Topical Reports, and the questions developed by the contractor under Task 1 and the answers to these questions developed by the vendors. The !! MSS /PM and other appropriate NRC staff shall appraise the contractor fully prior to these meetings with all pertinent information regarding the subjects to be discussed at the meetings. This information shall include a detailed agenda for the meeting. These meetings are to be held on a case-by-case basis, and it is possible that one or more of the vendors or the NRC cay choose not to hold a specific meeting on any of the aforementioned materials. The contractor shall be prepared to attend such meetings on short notice, and be able to handle any contingency regarding these meetings, such as short notice cancellation, detailed telephone conference calls in lieu of meetings, and follow-on conference calls and meetings.
The contractor shall prepare, 'f desired by the nr4SS/PM, a summary of any one of these meetings, or teleconferences, in accardance with the requirements described in Section 3.2 of this Task Description.
2.3 Task 3 - Preparation of SER Information The contractor shall develop findings and cor.clusions on the subjects that required questions to the vendors under Tr.sk 1 by utilizing the answers to those questions and all information discussed at any meetings held under Task
- 2. These findings and conclusions for each Topical Report shall be consolidated with findings and conclusions already made under Task 1, and submitted to the NRC P.O.in a format suitable for inclusion in the !!RC's Safety Evaluation Report (SER) prepared for each Topical Report. The correct format for inclusion in the SER shall be provided to the contractor by the ilRC P.0., and this input shall be delivered to the flRC in a tecnnical letter report as described in Section 3.3 of this Task Description, and submitted in acc Nnce with the schedule described in Section 4.0 of this Task Description.
3.0 Report,ing Requirements The following paragraphs describe the reporting requirements for work under this Task Description.
3.1 Detailed Cost Information in the Monthly Letter Status Reports In addition to the monthly letter status report required by the contract, the contractor shall provide the cost information on a separate page.in the forrat shown in Attachment 1 to this Task Description.
