Dear Mr,
. Day:
Thank you very much for your invitation to attend the July 9,1986 meeting between your organization and the State of Washington. As you know we met with Ms. Kirner from the State of Washington on June 25, 1986 to discuss the asphalt issue.
In this meeting we reviewed the draft backfill evaluation the NRC had previously prepared. 'We'also reached a basic agreement'that'
.backfilling would be'an' acceptable approach for providing stability for asphalt wastes. As a result of our discussion and agreements, I do not consider it necessary for me to meet with you in Olympia.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 301-427-4088.
Sincerely, 4///

Dear Mr. Ingersol:
Per discussion with Mr. Ed Day of Associated Technology Inc. (ATI) and as a follow-up to his discussion with you concerning the disposal of Class B and C stabilized bitumen waste at our Richland facility, we have draf ted this letter.
By this letter,. US Ecology is commi tting to following the administration procedures f or the : disposal of bitumen waste recommended in -
the NRC's. Draf t paper titled ' Staff Recommendations' on Soil Backfill for LLW Land Disposal Excavations,' except as hereaf ter modified with respect to the 12% limitation on fines.
As you know, this paper is in draft form and one comment that we have submitted to the NRC deals with the maximum 12% fines (passing a 200 sieve) that they specify for backfill material.
The soils at the Richland facility can be described as unconsolidated sands and silts through the depths normally excavated for the disposal units.
Samples taken from a typical trench have been f ound to be sandy soils in layers consisting of fine sand, coarse sand, and fine sand, progressing.from the surface downward to the trench flocr.
Tne percent of material p'assing a 200 sieve ranges from 4 to 20%.-
'Because of the arid conditions at the site, limiting the percentage of fines to 12% should not be required as long as the soile are dry, f ree flowing and noncohesive.
We had discussed this with the Imc and they have agreec.
We wanted to bring this issue to your attention because in our commitment to follow the Draf t recommendations, we will be utilizing only site soils for backfilling, and do not feel that any separation of backfill material is warranted.

Mr. Earl Ingersol November 19, 1986 Page 2 We hope that thi s commitment to utilize administrative controls for the disposal of Class B and c bitumen solidified wastes will satisfy the states requirements in their approval of this waste form.

Dear Mr. Wright; This is in response to Richard E. Sauer's letter cated hovember 19, 1986 relevant to the acceptance and disposal of Class B and C waste, stabilized i
j with citumen.
In oroer to fully achieve the stability requirements for J
Class B anc C wastes as outlined in Title 10 CFR 61 anc,'since the NRC branch Technical Pc.
ion Paper dated May 11,.1983 coes not provice com-plete guidance for bitumenous waste forms, administrative controls must l
1 be relied upon.
Interim approval is granted for the. acceptance and disposal of wastes stabili2eo with bitumen, provioed that the bitumen _ stabilized wastes are processed in accordance with a prescribed Quality Assurance procedure
{
that results in a free l standing monolith. ' Additionally, these: wastes. must be. disposed of-and' backfilled according tolthe-procedur-es recommended in the NRC oraf t paper titled."NRC Staff Recommendations on Soil Backfill for LLW Lano: Disposal Excavations" and procedures submitted by US Ecology, Inc. in correspondence cated November 19, 1986.

Subject:
Laboratory Testing Bituminuous Mixtures Associated Technologys, Inc.
Charlotte, North Carolina LETCo. Job No. CHG 5219 Gentlemen:
As requested, Law Engineering Testing Company has completed compressive strength testing on two samples delivered to our office.
These samples were tested by a method similar to that described in ASTM D 1074, " Compressive Strength of Bituminous Mixtures".
It should be noted however, that the samples ver.e_ cooled to a temperature of 550 i 20 and F
that the sample's original test. height was not equal to the diameter as specified. It should be further noted that these samples have no true failure point at which the load does not continue'to increase.
This is'due at least in part to the plastic nature of these samples.
The specific gravity of each sample was also checked and from this the unit weight after compression was calculated.
The results of these tests are shown on the attached " Report of Compressive Strength ~of Bituminous Mixtures".
If you have any questions concerning thi's report or if we can be further assistance, please contact this office.

Requested testing was outlined in the a p pro pr ia t e s ec tion s of the A.T. I.- Tes t Plan is sued o n Augus t. 5, 1986.
Numerical specimens designations were established by Mr. Simpson.
Requested test procedures and exceptions were as f ollows:
A.
A.T.I. Test Plan issued August 5,1986, Section 1.0 Cesium nitrate and cobalt nitrate used in specimen preparations were furnished by A.T.I.
Sorption of glass leach test vessels was not determined.
Electrical conduc tivity and tot al organic content of leachate solution was analyzed three times during testing.
Leachate tes t vessel rinse was disregarded as entire tes t vessel was used in analysis process.
Chemical analysis f or s pecified materials in leachate s olution were made.
Other c alc ula tions ac cording t o ASN 16.1 to be performed by A.T.I.
pe rs o nn el.
3.
A.T.I. Test Plan issued August 5,1986, Section 2.0 Test s pecimens f er compres sive strength were conditioned at 5 5 +
20 F.
Stress-strain calculations were made at 0.05 inch increments up t o 1.0 inch def orma tion or sample f ailure, wh icheve r occ urr ed first.
Stress calculations were based on original specimen geometry.

l As requested, Law Engineering Testing Company has completed compressive I
strength testing on two samples delivered to our office.
l These samples were tested by a method sim.ilar to that described in ASTM D,
- Compressive Strength of Bitu=inous Mixtures".
It should le noted
- 1074, however, that the samples ver.e_ cooled to a temperature of 550 '
2 and T
that the sample's original test. height was not equal to the diameter as l
l specified. It should be further noted thai: -these sa:ples have no true failure point at which the load does not continue'to increase.
Inis it"due at least in part to the plastic nature of these samples.
The specific gravity of each sa=ple was also checked and from this the unit i
veight after compression was calculated.
The results of these tests are shown on the attached " Report of Compressive Strength bf Bituminous Mixtures *.
If you have any questions concerning thn report or if we can be further assistance, please contact this office.
