lodinations

1. Iodinations will be conducted in accordance with established protocols supplied by the Principal Investigator (P.I.). There are basically five lodination Methods which will be performed. These methods are:

A. Using iodine monochloride (ICI). This is a very gentle reagent and does not damage the molecule to be iodinated. However, its yields are low and results in low specific activity of the final preparation.

B. Using Chloramine-T (p-toluene sulphonchloramide). This is a very reactive molecule that easily iodinates molecules without the use of radiolabeled iodide.

Efficiency ofiodination can be almost 100% and result in low substitutions with very high specific activities. The chloramine-T however can damage the molecule to be iodinated because ofits strong oxidative properties. Careful control of the quantities to be used can result in a very successful and reproducible iodination.

A less stressful oxidizing agent is the use of hypochlorite instead of Chloramine-T.

Yields are slightly lower but the immunoreactivity of molecules is retained.

C. Electrolytic iodination. The molecule to be iodinated is placed in a platinum anodic vessel mixed with the radiolabeled iodide source. The ccthode consists of a platinum wire  ;

separated from the anodic compartment by a semi permeable membrane. Judicious control of the iodide added and the current employed results in a slow iodination process I with no harsh chemical treatments and almost 90% efficiencies.

D. Enzymatic lodination (Iodobeads TM). This technique uses lactoperoxidase immobilized on glass beads which are capable of generating very small localized concentrations of hydrogen peroxide which in turn oxidizes iodide to a reactive species that iodinates the molecule. This gentle oxidative process causes little if any damage to the molecule however the yields by this technique tend to be low.

E. Cmdugation Labeline. This involves the use of an indirect labeling by first iodinating 3-(p-hydroxyphenyl) propionic acid N-hydroxy succinimide ester. This molecule can be ,

used to condense on to a free amino functional group of the molecule to be iodinated.

Once again on can achieve high specific activities and high yields with this method without the molecule coming in contact with a strong oxidizing environment. The major disadvantage is that the molecule is attached with a large p-hydroxyphenyl propionic acid moeity.

) n v Un

2. Iodinations however, will not be limited to the above methods. Since Battelle is a Research l and Development facility, future lodination Method Development studies may occur.
3. A Safety and ALARA Evaluation will be conducted on all Iodination and I :lination Method Development study protocols. The RSC and RSO will review all Iodination pi tocols and Safety and ALARA Evaluations. RSC and RSO approval will be granted based on license and procedural specifications. All records will be made available for NRC review.
4. Iodinations wEl be performed by personnel who have extensive experience and training in performing these operations. The RSO and RSC will determine what constitutes a trained individual and will approve the training and experience level of all individuals who perform Iodinations. Training will be evaluated as specified in Battelle's 1994 Type A Broadscope Application,34-26608-01, and subsequent NRC correspondence regarding RSO and RSC Safety Evaluations and approvals for possession, use and storage of radioactive materials. Personnel who do not possess the experience will be trained by an experienced person prior to performing lodinations.

Training records will be made available for NRC review.

5. Thyroid bioassays will be evaluated and performed in accordance with Reg Guide 8.20,

" Application of Bioassays for I-125 and I-131."

6. Air sampling for iodine will be performed in accordance with Reg Guide 8.25," Air Sampling in the Workplace," and NUREG-1400, " Air Sampling in the Workplace."
7. All lodinations will be performed in an operational fume hood which exhausts through a HEPA and activated charcoal filter. The filter trains will be tested and maintained as specified in Table 1 provided in' Attachment I.
8. Iodinations will be conducted in a Type III laboratory. Type III laboratory specifications are stated in the Byproduct License Application,34-26608-01.
9. In addition to the established protocols, ALARA reviews, and RSO and RSC review and approvals, Battelle currently maintains a mature radiation protection program with established procedures. Battelle also conducts operations as specified in Battelle's Radiation Safety Manual.

The Battelle Radiation Safety Manual has been recently revised to reflect all the operational commitments made to the NRC in Battelle's 1994 Type A Broadscope Application,34-26608-01, and subsequent NRC correspondence.

Re: Telephone Documentation on conversation regarding BPT Craig:

You do not need to amend your license for this activity. As discussed, I do not consider your present situation to be any different than that of a visiting researcher at a broadscope University. That is, they are approved users, and are under the control of your license.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Telephone Documentation on conversation regarding BPT Mike, j J

As we had discussed, I am sending you what had originally been a preliminary l amendment request, but is now just a request for e-mail documentation of I concurrence that activities described are within the scope of a normal Type I A broad scope license and no amendment or other specific authorization is I required.

Thanks, Craig Jensen Battelle Columbus SNM-7 Battelle Memorial institute (BMI) hereby requests an amendment to the Materials License SNM-7 and pending Byproduct Materials License 34 26608-01.

In 1998, BMI began the process for" spinning-off" a subsidiary company, Battelle Pulmonary Therapeutics (BPT) which became a business entity in March 1999. The business of BPT is research and development in the areas of medicine and pharmaceuticals, with an emphasis on inhalation technologies.

BPT is a wholly owned subsidiary of BMI, is co-located with BMI, and is staffed by both BPT and BMI personnel. Since the movement of BMI radioactive mat? rial researchers to BPT is planned to occur shortly, BMI would like to request that BPT staff be authorized to use radioactive materials under the BMI license and radiation safety program.

Therefore, BMI requests that NRC grant amendment to the above identified licenses (byproduct research and development uses only), allowing the use of radioactive materials by BPT staff, under those licenses and the auspices of the BMI Radiation Safety Committee (RSC), Radiation Safety Officer (RSO),

Radiation Safety Manual (RSM) and radiation safety program.

The BMI license, RSO, RSC, RSM, and radiation safety program are well established, and will be the authority for all uses of radioactive materials by BPT, Radiation safety policy issues, Pl and user evaluations, facility an<j equipment evaluations, requests for the use of radioactive materials, and other license-related items will be handled by the BMI RSC in the same manner as for BMi activities. Since this work is currently being performed by BMI staff in BMI facilities, there will be no significant increase in work-load for the RSO and staff and will result in no negative impact on the radiation safety program as a whole. BPT work under Batteile's license will not involve activities covered by 10 CFR 35 nor is human use contemplated.

BMI will be fully responsible for ensuring that the terms of the license are I met, the training of staff as radiation workers, that exposures to personnel i are maintained ALARA, for the management of spills or radiation-related J

Carole- We would like to have a copy of the master list of licenses that are being transferred to Ohio._in addition we need to bill all the full cost cases such as Battelle decommissioning and BP Chemicals (

control no. 4007604 which I understand was voided on 4/10/97). I know that Battelle was authorized decom. w/ Amd. 4 issued 10/5/93, however, I haven't received any hrs. to bill. There have been several

Dear Mr. McCann:

l l

Record of Telephone Conversation Regarding Amendment 17 to Materials License No. SNM-7 As promised, the following is a synopsis of our phone conversadons conducted on Thursday, May 20, 1999.

The following modifications were incorporated into license amendment 17:

1. The Licensee was changed to Battelle Memorial Institute, Battelle Columbus Operations. I
2. The Radiation Safety Officer was changed to Craig Jensen with no alternate specified at this j time. l Sections 6,7, and 8 l 1
1. Section 6. 7 and 8 of the license was reformatted to group all King Avenue and West ) '

Jefferson SNM and Byproduct categories together by location. A separate Item was specified for material use at Temporary Job Sites.1he moisture density gauge specified for use at 29 Palms CA was transferred to this Item. 4

2. The SNM material which Battelle possesses, as specified in our February 5,1999, letter, has been incorporated into the license.
3. The 3 Curies of C-14 used for Field Studies at the West Jefferson site has been deleted.
4. 'Ihe authorized amount for Kr-85, was lowered from 2 Curies to 500 mci. At one time, Battelle believed that all Kr-85 had been removed from the West Jefferson site. However, due to the D&D process, Battelle has identified containers containing small amounts of Kr-85. To

P.03/06

,O O  !

Mr. O. ' Mike McCann 2 May 14,1999 preclude excWg hcense limits during D&D activities, Battelle requested the limit be lowered to 500 mCl.

5. 'Ibe 80.7 gram PuBe source referenced in Section 6.F of the SNM license has been transferred to the DOE Pu program at LANL and deleted from the license.
6. U-232 and U-234 were specified in items 6, 7, and 8 for the West Jefferson site only. Use and storage of these isotopes at the King Avenue site was deleted.

~7. The Iridium-192 specified for use at the King Avenue site has been removed from the license. This source was transferred from Battelle.

Authorised Places of Use

1. Section 9, Authorized Places of Use, was changed to state, " Licensed material may be used in Buildings and Facilities approved by the Rathation Safety Committee (RSC) at the sites j indicated in Section 6, 7, and 8. The licensee will submit a final status survey for Buildings or  :

Areas which are to be released for unrestricted use via a license amendment. Battelle will notify the NRC when Buildings are authorized as new licensed material use and storage locations.

f

2. In addition, the moisture damity gauge was added to the Item authorizing use at Temporary I Job Sites.

J Conditions

1. Battelle requested that license Condition 13, regarding the Radiation Safety Committee Charter, be deleted. The Charter was incorporated into Battelle's Radiation Safety Manual (RSM). You indicated that this condition could not be deleted prior to your review of Battelle's previous Charter and the new Radiation Safety Manual (RSM). Battelle committed to providing you with copies of these documents. In addition, Battelle commits to providing the NRC copies of future RSM revisions which significantly change the safety envelope established by the RSM.
2. We discussed if license Condition 14 should f4 deleted. It was determined that this license condition is only applicable to the broad scope ilcense and will be deleted as an explicit condition as part of the approval and issuance of tha broad scope license. Battelle commitments to annual reviews are presented in Batte11e's resp as: to the NRC dated, February 14, 1995, and until the license is approved the NRC deems " , commitment is not enforceable.
3. A review oflicense Condition 15 determined that this condition could be deleted as long as Battelle committed to providing the NRC with copies of the Site Environmental Report. The Site Environmental Report currently is generated as a contractual obligation to DOE. This condition has been deleted.
4. Battelle has determmed that we do not have enough material to require a contingency plan as required in Condition 17. As per our phone conversation, this candition has been deleted.

i MAY-21-1999 14:55 P.04/06 Mr. G. Mike McCann 3 May 14,1999

5. Condition 20 has been deleted. Battelle las already backfilled the filter beds. Before the site can be released for unrestricted use, these filter beds will have to go through the existing D&D process with a final status survey.
6. Condition 21 has been deleted. The retired mactor is now part of the BCLDP S&M program. Removing this license condition elimmates the requirement for Battelle to submit to the NRC the annual Retired Reactor Facility Status Report.
7. We had a discussion as to Battelle's future pians for the field studies referenced in license Condition 22. Battelle does not plan to perform field studies in the future therefore, license Condition 22 has been deleted.
8. Condition 23 was deleted as a condition for use. The material was listed in Section 6, 7 and 8, located at the King Avenue site as, " Uranium enriched in the U-235 isotope-irradiated, any form,10 micrograms of contained U-235 plus the associated and unseparated plutonium and mixed fission products."
9. Condition 24 has been modified to allow user training from a vendor who is deemed qualified by the NRC. This allows Battelle to have flexibility in obtaining user training from a vanety of vendors. In addition, license Condition 24 now references all moisture density gauges.
10. Condition 25 was deleted. Battelic has a broadscope license which contains authorized amounts for unsealed material. Should Battelle decide to open sources, the material would then fall under the requirements specified for unsealed material.
11. We discussed license Condition 31. Specifically, the statement, " NRC regulations shall govern unless the statements, representations, and procedures in the licensce's application are more restrictive than the obligations." It was deemed that the referenced letters did not deviate from the existing NRC regulations and therefore, were approved by the NRC as license conditions.

Battelle requests the RSC be allowed to authorize use and storage of licensed material in special use facilities as defined in Reg Guide 10.5, for Research and Development, with the following upper bounds established.

1. The RSC will approve the use and storage of byproduct material up to 5 Curies per study not to exceed 1 Curie in use 'per study at one time.
2. The RSC will approve the use and storage of unsealed alpha material, not to exceed 50 mci per study. 4
3. '!he RSC will approve the initial installation and operation of compactors and other special use facilities not included in Items 1 and 2 directly above, evaluating the criteria specified in Reg Guide 10.5. The RSO will have the authority to grant movement of the compactors to

, iW-21-1999 14:55 P.05/06 Mr. G. Mike McCann 4 May 14,1999 different locations as long as the safety envelope and conditions established by the RSC are not changed.

4. The RSC will only approve interim storage locations for short-lived licensed material used in Research and Development.
5. As previously agreed, Battelle will periodically notify the NRC when the RSC approves special use facilities.

In addition to the above, Battelle requests that the license explicidy state that the retired reactor facility is not subject to any separate requirements from the rest of the BCLDP. The discharge of all retired reactor facility requirements would reside within the umbrella of BCLDP, e.g., that no additional or separate financial assurance vehicle or wh=iam would be required, for example, those from 10CFR50.

I have also reviewed with you, the current possession limits. The isotopes and amounts appear to be correct except the updates as noted in Attachment 1 from the Battelle letter dated February 5,1999.

The isotopes and limits are consistent with previous license amendments and the original license application.

" Consolidated Baling Machine" Compactor Model DOS-RAW-W1 The compactor is a 55-gallon drum compactor.

The compactor is operated at a main control station located on the compactor. The control station has a UP, DOWN, EMERGENCY STOP and STOP FAN button. De compaction cycle is activated and the fan motor energized by pushing the DOWN button. This lowers the platen and starts the HEPA filtered exhaust ventilation blower. When the compactor reaches the design compaction pressure, the pump motor

= stops which stops the compaction process. The exhaust ventilation blower continues to operate. The platen is raised by pushing the UP button. The compaction cycle can be interrupted by pushing the EMERGENCY STOP butten or pulling the electrical disconnect knife switch. At the end of compaction operations, the ventilation blower motor is denergized by pushing the S'lVP FAN button. The blower motor will not shut off until this button is pushed. The disconnect switch is installed to secure electrical power to the compactor in an emergency. There is one access door to the compactor drum area. This door is used for both drum and wt . Nading between compaction cycles. A safety interlock prevents the compactor trom compacting when this access door is open.

The compactor is located in a HEPA ventilated enclosure located in the JN 1 Waste Storage Shed. The compactor has a 1/3 HP fan motor with attached blower that ventilates the compaction area to 1000 linear feet per minute through an installed HEPA filter. The exhaust of this HEPA filter is sampled during compaction for airbome activity. In addition, the exhaust from the enclosure is also HEPA-filtered. This exhaust is sarr. pled during compaction as well as monitored continuously with a Continuous Air Monitor.

A pre filter is installed upstream of both HEPA filters to minimize HEPA-filter loading. In place leak testing of the HEPA-fiher is conducted as specified an ANSl/ASME N510 not to exceed every two years.

Pre-filter or HEPA filter changeouts occur when the HEPA-filter differential pressure reaches 5 inches water. in addition, if the HEPA filter dose rate reaches 5 mrem /hr at 30 cm, as rncasured with an appropriate dose rate instrument, the HEPA-filter is changed.

- A personal breathing air sample is collected each time the compactor is in operation. Breathing zone air sampling are supplemented with high or low volume air samples as previously specified. In addition, personnel are required to wear respiratory protection during compaction.

Compliance with the constraint level specified in 10 CFR 20. I 101(d) is verified using the COMPLY

. computer code as specified in Reg Guide 4.20, " Constraint on Releases of Airborne Radioactive Materials to the Environment for Licensees other than Power Reactors."

Contamination and radiation surveys are performed of the compactor, the compacted drums, the HEPA.

filter, and surrounding area daily during use. An approved RWP sets forth the requirements for air sampling, radiation and contamination monitoring and PPE for compaction operations. Approved Work Instructions contain the procedures for checking equiprnent functiening, methods for handling waste which did not compact, and examining drums for defects.

The type of waste which are compacted are Low Level, Dry Active Waste (DAW) which consists of Personal Protective Equipment, plastic, paper and small metal items. The estimated yearly compacted volume is approximately 10,000 ft' .

.in the 5 letters, I faxed a draft of the proposed amendment request to Mr.

Jensen, and requested that he review the document and confirm that the possession limits and conditions reflect their requests.

Mr. Jensen called back and indicated that he would have one of his staff I health physicists review the document and get back to me.

No further.

SUBJECT:

1. STATUS OF DECOMMISSIONING SCHEDULE
2. LICENSE POSSESSION LIMITS
3. AMENDMENT REQUEST TO CHANGE RSO
4. AMENDMENT REQUEST TO ADD HIGH LEVEL LABORATORIES
5. REQUEST FOR CERTAIN EXEMPTIONS FROM REQUIREMENTS FOR RETIRED DECOMMISSIONING REACTOR
6. REQUEST TO RELOCATE COMPACTOR FROM KING AVENUE SITE TO THE WEST JEFFERSON SITE On the above date i called Mr. Jensen to discuss the above subjects.

The discussion was as follows:

Subject Item 1:

APR-26-1993 17:01 P 03/06 I o .o. p DOE and Battelle are still in negotiation regarding the contract for L

BCLDP Project. Mr. Jensen indicated that they probably will need some additional time. He will get back to us within the next week.

-- 7 UPDATE 1!

L 1 talked w'ith Tom Baillieu! on Wednesday and got some notes on his i draft response. Ovemight I concluded that, as you had said, it was better to request that DOE CEMP (Columbus Environmental Management Project) provide its own input in writing in its own words.

I called Tom today and requested that he provide the project a response which he would have to have approved up his management chain at least as far as the Ohio Field Office. I got the impression from Tom that a reasonable time frame to receive this letter from him is 2 -

weeks. I will be calling you to talk about what he said and the next step forward on this issue. Battelle is unable to provide detailed planning without DOE guidance, and there will be some lag time to

-build the planning once the guidance is available. Tom believes that with WIPP opening to receive TRU waste there is now a path forward l to conclusion, and the potential for BCLDP shipment of its TRU l

wastes to an interim site like Hanford is now much more politically viable.

Craig Jensen' Battelle Labs Telephone Conversation Recoreage 2 Sublect item 2-Advised Mr. Jensen that we have reviewed their February 5,1999, letter which contained Battelle's revised material possession limits.

l Ms. Frazier has been provided a copy of the letter and is to get back to me regarding our findings, i.e., do we agree with the calculations and assumptions.

I A COMMENT 2: Battelle wishes to request that this issue be resolved '

soon, so that we can plan on a course of action, Currently, Battelle is a

ffR-26-1999 17:01 o P. N/06

. ,o p3 relying on the' unconfirmed but strongly held opinion by some at Region lll that Battelle will remain with the Region and not " roll over" to State of Ohio.

Subiect Item 3:

I advised Mr. Jensen that we are combining this request with the

. January 11,1999, request and have no problem with adding him to license. Therefore, once they respond to my questions listed in Subject item 4, we can amend license ASAP.

Subiect item 4:

A. Will Battelle commit to providing Rlli a periodic report identifying special, i.e, high activities or unique use labs?

The report should indicate the lab location, brief description of work, length of time lab will be in operation, and i quantities of materials to be used. If they agree to this we I will not require more information and will not require this information in the form of individual amendments.

A RESPONSE TO 4.A: Yes, Battelle will commit to providing a periodic

' report that identifies special, i.e., high activities or unique use labs (. 7 Battelle request that this be extended to the D&D license, so that we can utilize resources efficiently , e.g., new and relocation of existing compactors.

B. Regarding Building 3, storage of Radiological Waste. Is this short term? E.g., decay in storage? ' Not long term interim waste storage? Characterize the waste to be i stored? Describe the storage area. Are special features I required for waste? Fire protect? High activities?

Shielding necessary?

C. Will there be any waste processing performed in this are? l Describe. Procedures in license for this? j

- RESPONSE TO 4.B & C: As previously discussed, Building 3 would ,

be used for normal R&D radioactive materials use under the 34-  !

Licensee requests, in letter dated January 26,1999, relief from FSAR requirements. Licensee feels not necessary since Reactor decommissioned, and facility covered under Battelle's

-Decommissioning License. Talked with John House, NRC Rlli  !

inspector who has been to site and former reactor facility. John j agreed with me, that there is no need for the former '

requirements.  !

6. Mr. Jensen inquired about amending their license to authorize i the movement of a compactor from the King Avenue Site to the '

West Jefferson site. He indicated that he would fax me a letter requesting this. 'l received letter dated April 12,1999, which 1 will review on the 13 and get back to Mr. Jensen. It appears initially that I will be able to incorporate this request into the January 11,1999, license amendment request.

4 UPDATED ITEM 7: Battelle wishes to add its newest, soon to be cpened laboratory building, No. 20 to the byproduct materials license.

Battelle assumes that this action does not take an amendment, but simply notification.

. A copy of this Telephone Conversation Record was E-mailed to Mr.

Jensen per his request.

Dear Mr; McCann:

Requestfor Amendment to Materials License No. SNM-7, Docket 70-8 and Byproduct Materials License 34-26608-01.

~Battelle Memorial Institute (BMI) requests an amendment to the Byproduct Materials License SNM-7

' and Byproduct Materials License 34-26608-01, for the installation and remote operation of a " Slugger" compactor in the JN-1 hot cells; Mechanical Test Cell (MTC), Low-Level Cell (LLC), IIigh-Level Cell

- (HLC) and Iligh Energy Cell.

The " Slugger" compactor is currently installed and operated at Battelle's King Avenue facility, Building XP as specified in Battelle's Byproduct License Application correspondence, dated, February 14,1995, section 14.C. A picture of the compactor and specifications are provided in Attachment I.

. Battelle intends to remove the compactor from the King Avenue, Building XP, and transfer it to the West Jefferson JN-1 hot cells for compaction of TRU and low level waste. Modifications will be made to the compactor to allow remote loading and compaction usmg hot cell manipulators. The modifications are as follows and are illustrated in Attachment I: '

l. .The Emergency Stop button will be moved to a remote operating location outside the hot cell.

' 2. The Key controlled Off/Run/ Start switch will be moved to a remote operating station located outside the hot cell.

- 3. The rubber ram sealing gasket / skirt will be removed to facilitate compaction in a drum liner.

This gasket / skirt is installed to minimize airborne contamination due to the compaction process. Ilowever, due to the compaction process being performed in the hot cells, this skirt

'is not needed. In addition, the skirt diameter is too large to effectively minimize airbome

, contamination when compacting drum liners.

4. The installed drum safety proximity switch will be disabled. This safety switch is an interlock which combined with a key function allows the compaction ram to lower. This safety feature has to be disabled to allow compaction in drum liners. The drum liners have a smrller diameter than the 55 gallon drums for which the compactor was designed therefore, would not actuate the switch.
5. The compactor base will be modified because of the limited strength of the manipulator arms. Drums are loaded onto a cart which is then positioned onto the compactor base. T1.e j compactor base is located at a higher elevation than the cart therefore. The cart has to be rolled up to the compactor base. The compactor is designed in this manr er to prevent the cart wheels from absorbing any compaction force. To facilitate drum liner installation by the manipulator arms, Battelle will install reinforced cart wheels to raise the cart elevation to just I above the compactor base plane. This will give the manipulators arms the ability to load the cart onto the compactor base. The cart base will be approximately 1/16 inch higher than the 1 compactor base therefore, the reinforced cart wheels will absorb a portion of the compaction j force.

j i

The remaining interlock will be the key interlock. The key switch has three positions; off, run and start.

Prior to compaction, the key has to be inserted and switched to run. To compact, the key is positioned to the spring return start position. Once the key is postitioned to start, the compactor will go through a 30 second compaction cycle by specification sheet. The cycle time is modified only by the emergency stop button or when the compaction process reaches a maximum compaction pressure. At that point, the RAM will return to the up position. The compaction key controlled switch will be operated at a remote station located outside the hot cell. All drum liners will be installed and compaction operations will be performed using the hot cell manipulator arms.

The compactor has no ventilation system associated with the device. A ventilation line runs from the drum area out the back of the compactor. At the King Avenue site, this line is cornected via ducting to the XP Building HEPA filtered ventilation system. As the compactor will be operated in the hot cell, l there is no need to redirect the compaction exhaust. The compaction exhaust will exhaust at the  !

compaction site and be directed by the current hot cell ventilation system through a prefilter and double IIEPA filter exhaust system. The hot cell exhaust system is monitored on a continuous basis. Should ,

contamination levels reach the monitoring system setpoints, the respective hot cell ventilation blower l will shutdown and the exhaust dampers will shut. The hot cell ventilation system is described in Battelle's 1988 Deemed Timely filed application license, SNM-7, Docket 70-8, and the Building JN-1,

" Decontamination Work Plan", submitted to the NRC in November 1990.

This amendment is prepared as specified in Reg Guide 10.5 section11.e. Because the compactor will be ^

operated inside the hot cells, radiation surveys of the compacted drum liners will be performed remotely until removal from the hot cell. Upon removal from the hot cell, radiation and contamination surveys will be performed and the drum liner exterior will be deconned for storage and eventual disposal. All survey requirements will be specified in an approved Radiation Work Permit (RWP). i Air samples will not be conducted during compaction operations in the hot cell. Breathing zone and general area air samples will be perfomaed as specified in an approved RWP.

t

O O G. Mike McCann -

April 12,1999 Page 3 The compactor will be operated 'as specified in an approved work instruction. The operators will be provided and trained on a Compaction in the Hot Cell operational procedure. This procedure will include i checks for proper functioning of the compactor, actions for removal of a damaged drum liner from the

. compactor and examining containers for defects..

DearMr. Vitkus:

Enclosed are the final status tables for the . Building KA-2 Outside West Line soil populations prepared by the Battelle Columbus Laboratory Decommissioning Project (BCLDP) as discussed in your telephone conversation with Joe Poliziani. The sampling and interpretation of the analytical results was performed per the criteria used in the " Draft Building KA-2 Characterization and FinalStatus Report" sent to ORISE by the BCLDP on October 19,1998.

However, these tables will ultimately be included in a report for all three segments of the external lines removed on Tisdale Avenue. The issuance of the KA-2 final report should proceed as scheduled.

If we may be of any assistance in any way, please contact Joe Poliziani (614/424-7776) of my staff.

Sincerely, k.}. [

Dear Mr. McCann:

Amendment Request to Battelle Memorial Institute's Special Nuclear Material License, SNM-7, and Hyproduct Materials License 34-26608-01 Battelle Columbus Operations (Battelle) requests amendments to its licenses SNM-7 and (soon to be issued) 34-26608-01, to move Craig E. Jensen from Associate Radiation Safety Officer to Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) for both licenses. In conformance with the NRC requirement that licensees both request and obtain a license amendment prior to changing its RSO, I will continue to be Battelle's RSO in the interim period.

Since Mr. Jensen is a long time member of Battelle's Safety organization, and has acted for me on numerous occasions, this change will have vinually no impact to the radiation protection organization. I have accepted a temporary long-term assignment that takes me away from Battelle'vColumbus, Ohio operations area for periods of time. With major licensing actions nearing completion on both licenses, it was felt that initiating a change at this time would preclude the appearance of degradation in radiological control, and would provide Battelle with ,

the on-site level of radiation protection support that was appropriate for the operations being conducted. I will continue to be available to consult with Mr. Jensen, and do and will plan to continue to be physically available to attend required meetings, e.g., Quarterly RSC meetings during this changeover period.

Mr. Craig Jensen is a health physicist certified in the comprehensive practice of health physics by the American Board of Health Physics, with over 16 years of experience in the Radiation Protection field, including both the NRC R&D, life sciences, and the DOE regulatory arenas.

Since Mr. Jensen is already listed on the licenses as Associate Radiation Safety Officer, his resume and qualifications are on file with the NRC. Mr. Jensen is eligible for the position according to Commission guidelines.

MAR 0 21999

0 0 Mr. G. Mike McCann February 26,1999 Page 2 In anticipation of a usual NRC approval cycle on this matter, the effective date of this change will be April 1,1999. This also serves as the notice to the NRC in writing when the RSO permanently discontinues performance of duties under the license (s). If you have any questions regarding Mr. Jensen or his qualifications, please do not hesitate to call me at 516-344-7921 or 614-424-3885. '

Pronosed IIealth Physics Administrative Procedure GIP-AP-36.0)

Attached, please find the two finalized procedures you had previously reviewed in draft, HP-AP-36.0, Rev 0, Control ofRevisions to Radiation Protection Documents, and QD-AP-6.1, Rev 10, Document Control. The QD-AP-6.1 procedure contains the forms not in the HP-AP-36.0 procedure and is the only cross-referenced procedure.

Clarification of License Possession Limits Battelle has reviewed its recent submissions to the NRC on SNM and Source possession limits, specifically, SNM-7 major amendment submission dated September 1,1994 to Mr. Kevin Null and the last complete presentation of Battelle's possession limits in Amendment 10 dated April 27,1995.

Battelle has updated the possession limits to reflect current knowledge. Please note that they are not significantly different than either of the previously identified quantities, except for the shifting of the majority of the unirradiated fuel inventory to irradiated, and decreasing the source material inventory due to progress in clean up of the major locations of source material use, which were almost entirely at King Avenue.

HP-AP-36.0 Revision 0 Page 2 of 5 4.0 : . General The intent of this procedure is to help ensure maintenance of the radiological safety

margin of the BCLDP Radiation Protection Program through its implementing plans and procedures. The BCLDP document revision review will adopt the evaluation process in

. the general form of one used in the commercial nuclear power industry (10CFR50.59).

The principal test used is an evaluation whether the proposed change results in a decrease in the radiological safety envelope relative to the radiological risks of the project.

In general, ten working days should be the allowable time period required for document reviews. When necessary to achieve urgent project milestones, five working days is the minimum review time to be allowed. This minimum time should not be abused, however, to make up for lost time (by the author or others).

4.3 Documents will be assumed to have approval from reviewers who have not responded by the  ;

stated due date. Late comments will be reviewed for importance and may be held for the next  !

document revision. Comments to be considered for dispositioning, but not needing subsequent l

Dear Ms Pederson:

Radiological Status of the Battelle Research Reactor Facility for CY98 and Request for Exemption from AnnualInspection Requirements This report summarizes factors pertinent to the radiological status of the Retired Battelle Research Reactor Facility for the calendar year (CY) 1998, as required by Battelle's NRC License SNM-7.

Facility Location The facility is located in Building JN-3, Battelle Memorial Institute, (BMI), West Jefferson North Site, about one mile south ofI-70 and one-quarter mile cast of State Raute 142.

Retired Facility Site Representative (RFSR)

The RFSR for calendar year 1998 continues to be Stephen J. Layendecker. The Battelle Columbus . Laboratories Decommissioning Project (BCLDP), Radiological Field Operations maintains purview of the facility and the Radiological Safety Committee (RSC), overviews the radiological status.

Facility Status Proposed uses of the facility must be approved by the RFSR and are subject to overview of the RSC. Dr. Patrick J. Sabourin was the chairperson of the RSC subcommittee during FY 98. The general arrangements within the building remain essentially the same as reported for the calendar year 1997.

Ms Cynthia Pederson January 26,1999 Page 2 Security and Suneillance The facility remains within the confines of the fence and protected Nuclear Sciences Area.

-Twenty-four hour security and area access control is maintained by remote surveillance and periodic security patrols. Unescorted area access is limited to persons approved for access by Protective Services and site management; all others must be escorted by an approved staff member on the access list.

Environmental Survey On-site and off-site environmental monitoring is continued for the Nuclear Sciences Area according to DOE and NRC requirements. The annual Site Environmental Report (SER) incorporates data of the radiological and non-radiological Environmental Monitoring Program.

The data for the calendar year 1998 Report are currently being compiled and will be submitted to the U.S. Department of Energy and distributed to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the U.S. Department of Energy, and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency. The raw data compiled for the report do not indicate any unusual conditions that may be attributable to this facility.

Retired Facility Surveys Surveys are performed as part of the Battelle Columbus Laboratories Decommissioning Project (BCLDP). The BCLDP work is authorized under an approved NRC HQ decommissioning plan.

The surveys are performed weekly as part of the BCLDP Surveillance and Maintenance Program in the occupied controlled areas of JN-3. Surveys are performed monthly of the office spaces at the East end of JN-3 and the environmental equipment storage area at the West end of JN-3.

Routine surveys are not conducted inside the access controlled Retired Reactor Core Area, Fuel Pool or the Shield Tank, as the areas are posted as Confined Spaces, and High Radiation or Radiation Areas. The safety hazards associated with Confined Spaces greatly outweigh the radiological hazards present; therefore, the integrity of these areas is monitored by performing weekly surveys at the boundary of the Confined Spaces. At this time, these areas are utilized to store radioactive waste, which is the source of the radiation. Surveys are conducted in these areas to support periodic personnel entry.

Smears from the weekly and monthly contamination surveys are evaluated for alpha and beta activity. Radiation levels are also documented and evaluated as a part of the weekly and monthly surveys. All contamination and radiation surveys conducted during 1998 were within the acceptable limits and no abnormal conditions were noted.

i All water collected in the interior sump from the old hot drain system is pumped to an outside sump through a monitoring chamber. The water monitor listed in the FY 94 report was evaluated and found to be no longer needed.

i The wee'kly response checks and annual calibration with a Cs-137 solution were stopped at the end of the calendar year 1994. The past several years, environmental monitoring data has not  ;

indicated detectable activity other than background; principally K-40 from agricultural fertilizer  !

discharged through the monitor from the interior sump.
