l As discussed in reference (a), the Nuclear Materials Management and Safeguards System (NMMSS) datahame lists tive (5) sites for which the Nuclear Rbgnimary Commission (NRC) is responsible as having small inventories of U-233. The enclo' ed table lists the sites.
s The DOE Recommendation 97-1 Implementation Plan (IP) designates Oak Ridge as the DOE's permanent, long-term U-233 repository. An objective of the plan is have all U-233 tht does not l
have a ' defined current or future use where it is currently located be assessed, prepared for shinment, and shipped to Dak Ridge for processing and storage.
Preparations for shipping the U-233 held at the NRC sites to Oak Ridg' requires an assessment of e
each site's inventory. The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (11NL) has been assigned a 97-1 IP milestone to compile the individual site assenaments into an integrated report that will be a key element in planning the execution of following Implementetian Plan requirements. To J
complete its report LLNL iequires some basic information about the inventory.at each site.
Please provide the following for each NRC site directly to LLNL with copy to DOE /EM-66 as soon as possible and no later than May 1,1998:
l
- Quantity of U-233 beld by item and weight.
- Physical state (metal, oxide, solution, etc.).
- Physical condition.:
- Current and/or planned fhture use, if applicable.
- Special handling requirmnmen.
- How is it packaged?
Brent Ives at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (510/423-3636) has been assigned to 4
be the DOE U-233 97-1 Small Sites Coordinator. Brent and Hoyt Johnson at EM-66 are direct l
