(Contentions 4b in part and 6). I have personal knowledge of the matters stated herein and believe them to be true and correct.
In my Affidavit, after providing some background information, I will describe the chemical controls that are imposed on accident generated water, which prevent impairment of the water processing systems. I will then describe the chemical constituents of the water, demonstrating the efficency of the water processing sys-tems and their ability to remove any new contaminants introduced into accident generated water during future clean-up activities.
I. Background
- 3. The TMI-2 accident resulted in the production of large volumes of contaminated water. Following the accident, GPUN in-stalled two separate treatment systems to remove radionuclides and other contaminants from this water. The first was EPICOR II, which was placed into operation in October 1979 and employs an organic ion-exchange medium coupled with particulate filters.
The second was the Submerged Demineralizer System (SDS), which was placed into operation in June 1981 and employs cesium and strontium specific ion-exchange media (synthetic zeolite minerals which remove cesium and strontium ions from the water and replace them with non-radioactive sodium) also coupled with particulate filters. There are in addition other filters and demineralizers, such as the defueling water clean-up system (DWCS), which also removes contaminants from accident generated water.

- 4. Through mid-1981, when SDS began operation'to process.
water' contained in the reactor building, approximately 1.3 mil-lion gallons of accident generated water existed'at TMI-2. Of this. volume,~about 640,000 gallons were located in the reactor building. Direct release from the reactor coolant system con-
.tributed 69% of this water. An additional 28% was river water introduced via leaks in Reactor Building air coolers at the time of the accident and the remaining 3% was added via the contain-
. ment spray system during the first several hours of the accident.
Subsequent to 1981, most of this water was processed by both SDS and EPICOR II to reduce radionuclide levels to very low concen-trations. In addition, approximately 570,000 gallons of water existed in the auxiliary and fuel handling building tanks, most of which had been processed by EPICOR II by mid-1931. The reac-tor coolant system (RCS) contained an additional 96,000 gallons which also required processing by both the SDS and the DWCS.
- 5. Since 1981, the total inventory of accident generated s
water has increased to the current volume of approximately 2.1 s
million gallons due to continued additions from support systems and condensation from the reactor building air coolers during the summer months. Considerable care has been exercised to minimize the additions of new water and to ensure that the commingling of non-contaminated water with the accident generated water is re-stricted. Even with exercising care to minimize additions of new water, the final volume of water requiring disposal is expected to be 2.3 million gallons.
________m__
o I
- 6. The accident generated water is currently located in a number of systems and tanks, identified on Table 1 to this Affi-davit. The. water is subject to procedural controls. Chemical additions are strictly controlled, and the various sources are frequently sampled. Some sources, such as the RCS, are sampled daily; some sources such as the BWST are sampled weekly; and other sources are sampled as needed. Thus, there is a wealth of sampling data. These controls, described more extensively below, assure that waste processing systems will not be adversely affected.
II. Chemical Controls
- 7. The use of chemicals at TMI-2 is strictly controlled by the TMI-2 "Chemical Controls Procedure," 4000-ADM-3010.01, and by further implementing procedures which the TMI-2 Chemical Controls Procedure has required all organizations issuing or using chemi-cals to develop. The purpose of these procedures is to provide l
for the administrative control and safe usage, including dispos-al, of chemical substances, with particular regard to compliance with Federal and State regulatory requirements.
- 8. These procedures require that before a new chemical substance may be used at TMI-2 for a particular use, an engineer-ing evaluation must be performed and documented on a Chemical Evaluation Checklist. Chemicals so approved for specific uses are recorded on an "Approved Chemical Use List." Even if r
.a chemical substance'is on the Approved Chemical Use List,' a new chemical evaluation must be completed if the chemicals will con-tact (or if the required volume is greater than 1 gallon and there is a potential for accidental spillage into) reactor coolant, sumps, or processed (i.e., accident generated) water.
- 9. Under the Chemical Controls Procedures, one of the par-ticular factors that must be considered in-evaluating the use of chemicals is the protection of ion exchange media u 3 in SDS and EPICOR II. The procedure identifies a number of types of sub-stances warranting particular attention.
- 10. As a result of these controls, the chemical substances that have been added to the accident generated water are identifiable. As is required by the TMI-2 Technical Specifica-tions, boric acid has been added to the RCS and make-up sources to maintain a boron concentration greater than 4950 ppm but less than 6000 ppm, and sodium hydroxide has been added to the RCS and make-up sources to maintain a pH of between 7.5 and 8.4. There have also been periodic additions of hydrogen peroxide (totaling approximately 5000 gallons) to control the growth of microorga-nisms, and as of March 1988 the following additions of coagulants and diatomaceous earth to aid in DWCS filter efficiency:
e- g -g e- - m a-n- - - - - - ,-c-,,-,.w,, - , , .-,- ...--,------,,--w . , , , , , , -
M:
s' .c Coagulants Betz 1182 - 38.6 gal Betz 1192 - 0.75 gal Calgon 289 - 3.4 gal Diatomaceous Earth Standard Super Cel - 880 lbs Celite 507 - 20 lbs In addition, 6.7-gallons of nitric acid was-introduced into 20,000 gallons of AGW; 2.8 gallons-of phosphoric acid was intro-duced into 12,000 gallons of water; 2 to 3 gallons of Radiac Wash was introduced into the Auxiliary Building Sump; 350 gallons of Triton X-100 has been added to the AGW inventory; and there has been some expected leakage of hydraulic fluid to the RCS from operating equipment systems, estimated at about 40 gallons.
'll. Boron and sodium hydroxide, which are required for com-pliance with License Technical Specifications, are pre-existing constituents (i.e., they existed in the accident generated water prior to the development of the EPICOR II and SDS systems). The effects of these two constituents were considered in the design
'and testing of EPICOR II and SDS systems to ensure the systems would function adequately in the existing environment.
- 12. The effect of hydrogen peroxide was evaluated after SDS and EPICOR II were operational. Tests showed that hydrogen per-oxide in concentrations up to 100 ppm would have no deleterious effects on EPICOR II and SDS ion exchangers and other systems.
4.
'13. With respect to.the coagulants, Betz 1182' consists pri-marily of an organic polymer represented chemically as [C57 H "6]n, and Betz 1192 consists primarily of an organic polymer respre-sented chemically as [C H NC1]n. Calgon-289 also consists pri-8 16 marily of [C H N ]n. All f these additives were tested to de-576 termine whether they would have an impact on the efficiency of EPICOR II or SDS. .It was found that Betz 1192 would slightly re-duce the ion removal efficiency of the resins. Betz 1192 has not subsequently been used. (The 0.75 gallons of Betz 1192 that has been added to AGW represents the initial test). Betz 1182 and Calgon-289 were found to have an insignificant impact on the re-moval efficiency of the resins.
- 14. Diatomaceous earth is a filter media consistinn of sil-icon (SiO2) in a fine powder form, similar to that used in home swimming pools. It is inert and virtually all is. recovered and removed in the filtration process. It has no effect on ion-cxchange resins or other components of SDS, EPICOR II and other systems.
- 15. The hydraulic fluids that have been used are UCON WS-34 Houghto-Safe-620 and Quintolubric 807-SN. UCON WS-34 is a linear polymer of ethylene and propylene oxide, to which Poly Solv TE Borate, a borated ester, has been added. Houghto-Safe-620 is a mixture of 40% water, 40% glycol, 15% polyglycol and 5% addi-tives. Quintolubric 807-SN is 95% water, with the remainder l

-consisting of 4 Methyl-2, 4 pentanediol and Alkanolamide plus ad-ditives as emulsifiers, corrosion. inhibitors, and biocides.
These compounds were tested and found to have no significant effect on the SDS, EPICOR II and other systems at low concentra -
-tions. ,
- 16. Triton-X-100 is a non-ionic sufactant, with the chemi-cal name Isocctylphenoxypoly thoxyethanol ethylene oxide. It is used as a degreaser and a decontamination agent for floors, walls, piping, and mechanical equipment. Triton-X-100 was evalu-ated and tested. It can adversely affect the SDS and EPICOR II systems if present in too great a concentration. For.this rea-son, the quantity of Triton-X-100 and consequently the concentra- ,
tion in accident generated water have been strictly limited, keeping the concentrations below the level where the demineral-izer systems might be adversely affected, and has not been used since 1985.
- 17. Radiac Wash is an aqueous radioactivity decontamination solution, consisting of a detergent of citric acid and EDTA.
Radiac Wash does impede ion-exchange. Only a very small amount (2-3 gallons) was introduced into a batch of accident generated water in 1982, which was subsequently processed.
- 18. Phosphoric and nitric acid are generally incompatible with ion-exchange resins. Again, only a very small amount of these acids was introduced into accident generated water, which was subsequently processed.
4
- 9.
Other than these additions (and other than radio-nuclides), the accident generated water includes only trace con-stituents that originated in river water or were picked up from the reactor building, pipes, and tanks. These trace constituents include silt, oil ind grease, iron oxides,. carbonates and sulfates.
- 20. The compatibility of the accident generated water chem-istry with the EPICOR II and SDS systems is not based on tests alone. The conclusion is also demonstrated conclusively by the observed performance of these systems. Water is processed through these systems as batches, and each batch is analyzed for radiological and chemical content before and after processing.
This analysis permits GPUN to observe the efficiency of the sys-tems during operation. The SDS and EPICOR systems have been fre-quently operated, and have consistently achieved a substantial decontamination factor. A recent chemistry profile for EPICOR II processing is shown in Table 2.
III. Current Chemical Analysis
- 21. Much of the additives discussed above are removed dur-ing the processing of the accident generated water. For example, essentially all of the Diatomaceous Earth is held in the pro-cessing system filters and removed with the filters. Most of the coagulants as well as other particulates in the water are also removed in the filtration process. Coagulants are added to water
_g.
4 r,
- specifically because they attach to particulates and agglomerate them for more efficient removal by the filters. Filtration then decreases.the amount of particulates and coagulants.by several
- orders of magnitude. The organic ion-exchange resins, although they are used primarily to remove radionuclides, also remove non-radioactive chemical ions and organic substances. 'As a result, the levels of-chemicals other than boron and sodium in processed water are relatively low.
- 22. Results of chemical analyses presented to the NRC in GPUN's July 1986 Report on Disposal of TMI-2 water are presented in Table 3 of this Affidavit and reflect the relatively low lev-els of chemicals other than boron and sodium in processed Acci-dent Generated Water. From this table it can be seen that most of the processed water had a near neutral pH, with varying levels of conductivity, boron and sodium. Boron ranged from less than 100 ppm for contaminated drains and new water to over 5000 ppm for RCS and BWST water. The average concentration was approxi-mately 3,050 ppm. Total Organic Carbon (TOC) averaged less than 15 ppm. Particulates (i.e. total suspended solids) have been kept less than 2 ppm.
- 23. This table, when prepared, provided a snapshot in time of the AGW inventory. The content of each of these locations changes continuously during defueling and decontamination, as water is used for these activities and as it is processed through SDS and EPICOR II.
-g l
- 24. To keep constant track of the changing water chem-istries, GPUN periodically performs chemical analyses of accident generated water sources. The sampling and analyses are procedur-alized. Before a sample is withdrawn from a storage location,.
the water is mixed or recirculated. The sample line leading from the representatively mixed water then receives a minimum three line volume-flush to ensure that fresh water is obtained. The sample is then placed in a new container which is discarded after completion of the sample analysis. These activities are subject to Quality Control oversight. Split samples as well as blind samples are used on a set frequency to validate the analytical-results.
- 25. The results of the most current chemical analyses are presented in Table 4. From the tables, it can be seen that the processed water still has a near-neutral pH, with varying levels of conductivity and sodium. The average concentration of boron is on the order of 3000 ppm. Particulates (suspended solids) remain below 2 ppm.
- 26. Comparing Tables 3 and 4 shows that the continuing clean-up activities of TMI-2 do not change the chemical charac-teristics of processed water to any significant extent. Some AGW will be used for various system flushes and decontamination pur-poses in the future, after which it will be reprocessed by EPICOR II and/or SDS to the extent necessary. These activities are identical to past usage and chemical species will again be removed.
~
IV. Conclusion
- 35. As described above, chemicals in the accident generated I water are controlled so that neither the SDS nor the EPICOR II systems are impaired. These controls coupled with frequent chem-ical analyses permit reliable characterization of the water chem-istry. While certain batches of accident generated water will be used for future cleanup activities, the experience to data demon-strates that processing will continue to efficiently remove new chemical and radiochemical constituents to desired levels.
