1 TRANSURANIC SEALED SOURCES MANUFACTURED BY MONSANTO RESEARCH CORPORATION l

G.W. Roles Division of Low-Level Waste Management and Decommissioning Office of Nuclear Material Safety and Safeguards September 1989 I.

INTRODUCTION The Low-Level' Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985 (Amendments Act) stipulates that disposal of low-level waste (LLW) exceeding Class C concentrations as defined in 10 CFR Part 61 is the responsibility of the federal government. Disposalofsomeofthisgreater-than-ClassC(GTCC) waste must be in a facility licensed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). To help make decisions about GTCC waste management, NRC must estimate the quantities of GTCC waste that will be generated. This is particularly difficult for GTCC sealed sources owned by commercial and some government licensees.

Sealed sources are small capsules of radioactive material used for a variety of industrial, laboratory, and medical applications. Roughly 200 radioisotopes, mostly short-lived, have been used in sealed sources, which can range in activity from a few microcuries to several thousand curies. Of the hundreds of thousands of sealed sources that have been manufactured and distributed, a few tens of thousands contain radionuclides in sufficient quantities that, if disposed, would be considered GTCC sources. Such GTCC sources are dominated by sources containing Am-241 or other long-lived transuranic isotopes in quantities exceeding about 30 millicuries.

From 1962 to 1984, one of the major manufacturers and distributors of large transuranic sources was the Monsanto Research Corporation. Although no longer manufacturing and distributing sealed sources, when in business Monsanto fabricated thousands of americium, plutonium, californium, and neptunium sources.

In a February 1985 letter to NRC, Mr. Harold Coleman, a former Monsanto manager, estimated that Monsanto distributed about 9,200 transuranic sources. He also estimated that Monsanto controlled about 70% of the market for sources containing transuranic isotopes. This letter, plus a record of a March 1989 telephone conversation with Mr. Coleman, is included as Appendix A.

Given this information, we decided to analyze Monsanto's manufacturing and shipment records. From this analysis, we believed that we could better understand the numbers and sizes of GTCC transuranic sources in circulation.

I

I. PROCEDURE

S On June 30, 1989, we visited Monsanto's Dayton, Ohio facility to review and photocopy manufacturing, sales, and shipment records. The slow speed of the es10060322 891003 FDR WASTE FDC WM-3

l available copying equipment made it impossible to copy, in one day, all shipment manifests. Therefore, we copied manifests from only one complete year, 1978. We also copied, for each year of operation, available summary l

information. Generally, customer lists (and sales on a dollar basis) were available on a yearly basis, as were lists of the numbers of sources sold. We copied those portions of the manufacturing log books listing sources containing I

transuranic isotopes, as well as sources containing a few other isotopes of interest.

(See Appendix B for a copy of the trip report for the Monsanto

)

visit.)

l We then analyzed the copied data.

In Section III we present the results of l

this analysis in two groups. The first group sunanarizes Monsanto's sales records; the second group addresses the distribution of sources among different customers.

Our compilation of Monsanto's sales records, available yearly from 1970 through 1983, is enclosed as Appendix C.

From this compilation, we prepared tables that summarize Monsanto sales by general category (see Section III). These general categories include well-logging, reactors, gauging, medical, instruments, government, miscellaneous, foreign, and smoke detectors.

Our compilation of the numbers of transuranic sources distributed to each customer is included as Appendix D.

From this compilation, we estimated the distribution of sources among selected groups of customers; in particular, we distinguished among commercial, foreign, and government customers. We also l

reviewed the sizes of the sources as listed in the logs, particularly noting whether the sources would exceed 30 mC1.

This 30-mci criterion is derived assuming that a source is encapsulated in about 600 pounds of concrete in a 55-gallon drum (see the December 14, 1988 memorandum from M.J. Bell to M.R. Knapp, NRC Division of Low-Level Waste Management and Decommissioning).

NRC staff believe that provided the source is centered in encapsulating material that meets the structural stability requirements of 10 CFR Section 61.56, classification of the source may be based on a concentration determined by dividing the source activity by the total mass of the encapsulated product. Under these conditions, the 30-mci criterion corresponds to the 100-nC1/g, Class-C transuranic limit.

Our compilation and analysis was hindered by uncertainties as described in Appendix E.

The principal uncertainties pertained to -- (1) estimating the sizes of the sources, (2) determ'ning when sources were delivered to foreign l

entities, and (3) specifically identifying the customers. Regarding the last I

uncertainty, the principal problem was that many customers operate a number of facilities, some for the federal government and some not. For example, a log citation for the " University of California" could refer to a college campus, to f

Los Alamos National Laboratory, or to Lawrence Livermore Laboratory.

Considering the provisions of the Amendments Act, it was important to distinguish between sources used for commercial and government applications.

We responded to these. uncertainties by making conservative assumptions.

If the logs provided no information about the sizes of particular types of sources, we assumed that the sources were GTCC.

If the logs were vague about delivery of l

sources to foreign entities, we assumed that the sources remained in the United l

States.

If the logs were vague about delivery of the sources to government i

facilities, particularly Department of Energy (DOE) facilities, we assumed that j

the sources were used for commercial applications. These assumptions tend to increase the calculated numbers of sources delivered to commercial customers located in the United States.

III. RESULTS Results are presented for our analysis of Monsanto's sales records and l

manufacturing logs.

Sales Records j

Table 1 summarizes Monsanto sales from 1970 through 1983. During these years, 52% of Monsanto's sales (in dollars) were to well-logging customers. Another 19% of the sales were to domestic manufacturers of nuclear reactors. Nine J

percent of the sales were to foreign governments or companies, including KWU.

The remaining 20% of the sales were distributed about as follows: gauging --

5%, medical -- 2%, instruments -- 25, government -- 3%, smoke detectors --

0.011, and miscellaneous -- 9%.

l Table 2 sunnarizes sales to well-logging customers so identified in Monsanto's records (seeAppendixC).

Nearly 94% of the well-logging sales were to Schlumberger, nearly 25 to Halliburton, and nearly 1% to Seismograph. The l

remaining 3% of the well-logging sales were to 12 customers, none accounting for more than 0.6% of the total well-logging sales.

1 Manufacturing Logs I

Table 3 is a summary of the numbers of sources containing transuranic isotopes.

Three-quarters of the 11,604 transuranic sources are Ar-241 sources; Pu-238 and Pu-239 eas.h represent about 95 of the transuranic sources. Table 3 also quantifies sources containing nickel, strontium, carbon, and cesium isotopes.

Although the logs didn't consistently identify the specific isotopes used, we conservatively assumeo that the isotopes were generally those specifically listed in Tables 1 and 2 of 10 CFR Section 61.55 -- namely, Ni-63, Sr-90, C-14, and Cs-137.

Finally, Ra-226 sources are listed.

We now present highlights of our analysis for each isotope.

Am-241 Sources. Am-241 gamma sources were sold to a large number of customers, who generally purchased only a few sources apiece. ORTEC, however, bought 963 sources, Harshaw Chemical Co. bought 205 sources, Industrial Nucleonics bought 233 sources, and Ohmart bought 192 sources. Because of the extensive duplication of serial numbers, we were uncertain about the actual number of l

. sources that were manufactured. We counted 2,530 sources, however, of which about 8%.were sold to universities, about 3% to foreign entities, and about 5%

to yarious U.S. government installations.

The logs were clear about source sizes for.943 of the 2,530 gamma sources, a sampling of 37%. ~These 943 sources seemed almost all to be in the millicurie or microcurie range, and only occasionally contained as much as 1 Ci of activity. Only 20% of the sources exceeded 30 mC1 in size.

Monsanto manufactured 6,051 Am-241 neutron sources.

By far, ber most common neutron target element. Of the 5,887 AmBe sources, yllium was the about 59% were sold to well-logging customers. Schlumberger, in fact, alone bought 3,210 AmBe sources, or 55% of all AmBe sources. Two percent of the AmBe sources were sold i

to the U.S. government, about 3% to reactor manufacturers and utilities, and about 1% to foreign entities. Troxler bought 1,503 AmBe sources, or 26% of all AmBe sources.

The logs clearly inoicated source sizes for about a thousand AaBe sources. Of i

these sources, about 95% exceeded 30 mC1 in size. Until 1971, at least, the well-logging sources appeared to have been dominated by 5-curie sources. But by 1978, the average size appeared to have risen. We reviewed the shipping records for 1978 and identified 201 AmBe sources, averaging 9.5 Ci apiece, sold to well-logging customers. The AaBe sources sold to Troxler appeared to be generally in the range of about 50 to 100 millicuries.

Most of the remaining neutron sources, or 123 out of 164 sources, used lithium as a target element. Forty-four (36%) of these 123 AmLi sources were sold to the University of California. As noted in Section II, we couldn't tell whether these sources were delivered to the university itself or to a national laboratory, although for purposes of the Amendments Act, we conservatively assumed the former situation. About 5% of the lithium sources were sold to j

government facilities, and 5% to foreign entities.

The logs revealed little information about the sizes of the remaining neutron sources. Clear information was available for only 6 out of 123 AmL1 sources and 9 out of 21 AmB sources. Of these 15 sources, all exceeded 30 mC1. Size i

data wasn't available for the single americium threshold detector source or for the 16 AmBe/Cs and 4 AmF sources.

j Finally, Monsanto manufactured 3 AmPu sources for Harshaw Chemical. All three sources were I to 2 microcuries in size.

1 Pu-239 Sources. The logs indicate that about 35% of the 158 Pu-239 alpha sources were transferred to the federal government and about 4% were transferred to universities. Only one source was clearly transferred to a foreign entity. The sizes of the 158 alpha sources tended to be in the microcurie to millicurie range. Of the 49 sources for which size data is l

available, only 1 source exceeded 30 mci.

5-L Almost all of the Pu-239 neutron sources used beryllium as a target element.

Of these 469 PuBe sources, roughly 17% were shipped to government entities suc as national laboratories, 28% to well-logging customers, 3% to reactor manufacturers or utilities 4% to foreign entities, and 23% to universities.

1 The PuBe sources generally ranged from 1 to 10 curies in size.

Clear size data was available for roughly 400 sources, of which all but about a dozen exceeded 30 mC1. Of 128 well-loggin two were 10-curie sources. g sources, 126 were 5-curie sources; the remaining Two Pu-239/ boron neutron sources were manufactured:

one source was sold to Westinghouse-Bettis and one to Rutgers University.

Both boron sources exceeded 30 mci in size.

One 0.5-curie Pu-239/ fluorine source was sold to the University of California (Los Alamos).

Plutonium Threshold Detector Sources. Monsanto manufactured 421 plutonium threshold detector sources.

The logs didn't specify the isotope used in these sources, although we believe that plutonium-239 is the most like At foreign entities.

The customer identities for 22% of the sources couldn't be detennined.

Monsanto also manufactured three plutonium-aluminum threshold detector sources.

All three were sold to Avco.

The sizes of the 421 Pu-239 threshold detector sources appeared to range a little. higher than those for the Pu-239 ' alpha sources.

Clear size information was available for 247 sources, of which 147 (60%) exceeded 30 mci.

No size information was given for the 3 plutonium-aluminum threshcid detector sources.

Pu-238 Sources. About half of the Pu-238 sources were alpha sources. Of these 479 alpha sources, about 4% were sold to government organizations and 15 to universities.

Three-hundred-sixty alpha sources were sold to Arco Nuclear, a manufacturer of nuclear pacemakers.

The logs did not indicate the sizes of these 360 sources.

In fact, clear size information was available for only 42 alpha sources.

Of these 42 sources, 23 were heat sources sold to Hittman. -

Each heat source contained from 30 to 40 curies of Pu-238. The remaining 19 sources were in the microcurie or millicurie range. Nine of these 19 sources exceeded 30 mci in size.

The logs indicated manufacture of 508 Pu-238/ beryllium sources.

About 25% were distributed to well-loggers,16% to the government, 24% to reactor manufacturers or utilities, 65 to universities, and 8% to foreign entities.

The sizes of the Pu-238/ beryllium sources varied considerably. But of the roughly 140 sources for which clear size data was given, all except 4 sources exceeded 30 mC1.

Pu-238/Be sources sold to well-loggers seemed to generally exceed 10 curies apiece.

The logs had size information for only 37 well-logging sources all sold to Schlumberger. These sources ranged from 4 to 20 Ci apiece, avera,ging about 14 curies.

Other Sources. We also examined the logs for strontium, cesium, nickel, and carbon sources.

The sizes of these sources were all so small so that they wouldn't be likely to exceed Part 61 Class C concentrations if, in fact, the isotopes used in the sources correspond to those listed in 10 CFR Section 61.55.

Radium-226 is not regulated by NRC, but is of interest because its disposal in low-level waste disposal facilities is restricted. Of the 518 Ra-226 sources manufactured by Monsanto,135 had no identified customers. Of the remaining-sources, all but 5 were sold either directly to foreign entities (e.g., Sweden bought 352 Ra-226 sources) or to Alcor, a Swedish company. We believe that these 91 Alcor sources were probably also exported. Almost no information was given on the sizes of the Ra-226 sources.

IV. DISCUSSION In this section we compare the results of our analysis with information obtained from the February 1985 Monsanto letter, and from the March 1989 telephone conversation with Harold Coleman (see Appendix A). We also estimate t

the numbers of GTCC transuranic sources manufactured and distributed.

Comparison with Previous Information The Monsanto records indicate manufacture of about 11,600 transuranic sources, rather than 9,200 transuranic sources as listed in Appendix A.

Otherwise, the results of our analysis seem to be consistent with Mr. Coleman's main points.

The records show that government sales were not very extensive; in fact, only 31 of the sales were to the federal government. Furtherinore, the records indicate that less than ten percent of all transuranic sources were assigned to government facilities. There were exceptions, however, for particular types of sources in which government sales were significant.

Government sales accounted for about 16% of all Pu-238/Be sources. Mr. Coleman recalled purchase of "at least a dozen" large Pu-238/Be sources by Brookhaven National Laboratory. Brookhaven actually bought 18 Pu-238/Be sources. Size data was available for 14 of these Brookhaven sources, all 50 curies in size.

Government sales also accounted for 59% of the neptunium threshold detector sources, and 65% of the plutonium threshold detector sources.

The delivery to the nuclear navy of 100 to 200 3-curie Asse cable sources, as mentioned by Mr. Coleman, could not be confirmed.

[

..N-8' n.

l

-Roughly 240 neutron' sources were manufactured using Am-241, Pu-238, or Pu-239 combined with unusual target elements (e.g., boron, lithium, or fluorine).

For

.many combinations of these isotopes and target elements, government sales were j

'significant. For example, government sales accounted for one-third of the 21 AmB sources, 3 of the 4 Pu-238/F sources, one of the two.Pu-239/B sources, one of the 2 Pu-238/C sources, and two of the three Pu-238/B sources.

In addition, 44 out'of the 123 AmLi sources (or 36%) were sold to the University of California.

We expected to find that most of the Pu-239/Be sources were delivered to either the federal government or to universities.

Instead, only about 17% of all Pu-239/Be sources were sold to government entities, and about 23% to universities. Mr. Coleman was under the impression that almost all of the Pu-239/Be s0urces were manufactured using government-owned material. This could not be confirmed, although we believe it questionable considering the large number of connercial entities-that acquired Pu-239/Be sources.

Well-logging companies, in fact, acquired more Pu-239/Be sources than did either universities or the federal government.

.The records did confirm that a very significant fraction of Monsanto's business involved sales of americium sources to well-logging companies, particularly Schlumberger. From 1970-to 1983, well-logging companies accounted for 52% of all sales. The records also support Mr. Coleman's impressions that the bulk of the americium activity sold by Monsanto was contained in well-logging sources,

. and that significant. numbers of well-logging sources were manufactured using Pu-238.

i Table 4 lists nearly 3,800 neutron sources delivered to customers in the well-logging and petroleum industries. Ninety-twc percent of these neutron sources were Am-241/Be sources, 35 were Pu-238/Be sources, and 41 were Pu-239/Be sources. Eighty-eight percent of the sources listed in Table 4 were

-delivered to Schlumberger.

$ ales records also indicate that a significant fraction of Monsanto's business

-- about 19% in total sales -- was to manufacturers of nuclear reactors.

It is difficult to tell what these sales mean in. terms of numbers of sources actually l

~ delivered to nuclear reactors. As discussed in Section II, large companies such as Westinghouse used sealed sources in a variety of applications, some involving use at reactor facilities and some not. Some sources used at reactor facilities could have been used at commercial reactors and others could have been used at government, particularly naval, reactors.

Neutron sources may be used at a nuclear reactor in a variety of applications:

to name two, for instrument calibration or as reactor startup sources. Reactor cores can contain a number of neutron sources which must be periodically replaced. Disposal of these in-core sources may be more difficult than for j

sources used for other applications. The high neutron environment activates

{

the metal encapsulating the sources, and the sources may emit so much radiation j

that they are difficult to encapsulate for disposal.

In addition, activation J

I products such as Ni-63 and Nb-94 must se considered when performing waste classification calculations.

We have prepared Table 5 which lists more than 506 neutron sources purchased by utilities and principal manufacturers of nuclear power reactors. Not all sources, however, were used at comercial reactors. As can be seen, the logs indicate that neutron sources have been delivered to a variety of Westinghouse and General Electric facilities, suggesting that the sources were used for a variety of purposes. From perusal of the data, we expect that most of the General Electric sources, and at least 50% of the Westinghouse sources, were not delivered to comercial nuclear power reactors.

This still leaves roughly 300 neutron sources probably delivered to nuclear power reactors.

It is impossible to tell how many of these sources were used in reactor cores.

Distribution of GTCC Sources From our analysis of Monsanto manufacturing logs, we estimate that Monanto manufactured and distributed 8,300 GTCC transuranic sources. To make this estimate, sumarized in Table 6, we multiplied the total numbers of each type of transuranic source by the estimated fractions containing radionuclides in quantities exceeding 30 mC1.

In preparing Table 6 (and Table 7), we didn't attempt to roand the results of the calculations, but left them to the nearest whole source.

Done to ease the job of checking calculations, this should not be construed as an inflated accuracy.

The logs provided no information about the sizes of some ty >es of sources. For these sources, Table 6 is marked "no information." All suc1 sources are conservatively assumed to be GTCC. This assumption is particularly conservative for californium sources. To decay to 30 mci of Cm-248, a source would have to originally contain over 5,000 curies of Cf-252.

Thus, most Cf-252 sources would probably not bc GTCC, unless significant activity was induced from neutron activation, as may be the case if the source was used in a nuclear reactor core. In this case, the source may be difficult to encapsulate before disposal.

If a source could not be encapsulated, classification would have to be based on the volume and mass of the source itself, a much more restrictive calculation.

We have also divided these estimates by the factor 0.7, and have recorded the quotients as the " adjusted number, all industry." This factor is based on Harold Coleman's February 1985 letter in which he estimates that while in operation, Monsanto controlled roughly 70% of the comercial market for transuranic sources. Assuming that this estimate is reasonable, the adjusted number is a rough estimate of all GTCC transuranic sources sold by comercial entities from 1962 through 1984. As listed in Table 6, the adjusted number totals about 11,800 sources.

We then estimated the numbers of GTCC transuranic sources, as sold by Monsanto, for which disposal would be subject to NRC licensing pursuant to the Amendments

L 10 Act(Table 7). TheAmendmentsActstatesthatthefederalgovernment'(DOE)is responsible for disposal of --

(a) low-level radioactive waste owned or generated by DOE; (b) low-level radioactive waste owned or generated by the U.S. Navy and resulting from decommissioning U.S. Navy vessels; (c) low-level radioactive waste owned or generated by the federal government and resulting from researching, developing, testing, or producing any atomic weapon; and (d) any other low-level radioactive waste having radionuclides concentrations exceeding the Part 61 Class C limits as in effect on January 26, 1983.

The Amendments Act also states that disposal of waste identified by item (d),

and generated from activities licensed by NRC, shall be disposed in a facility licensed by NRC.

This means that the number of GTCC sources, as sold by Monsanto, for which eventual disposal would be licensed by NRC, would be a subset of the total number of GTCC sources sold. Excluded would be sources sold to foreign entities, sources owned by DOE, sources owned by the Navy for use in nuclear submarines and other nuclear vessels, and sources owned by the fedaral government and used as part of nuclear weapons work. Included would be sources sold to the government for medical or other applications.

Using the information in Section III, as well as the information in Appendix D, we have estimated the numbers of sources remaining after excluding sources sold to DOE, to DOE contractors when clearly identified as such, to laboratories known to be heavily involved in nuclear navy or nuclear weapons programs, and i

to foreign entities. The fractions determined from this process are listed on Table 7, as are the products resulting from multiplying these fractions by the numbers of GTCC. sources. These products represent the total numbers of i

Monsanto GTCC sources, as sold, for which eventual disposal would be theoretically subject to NRC licensing. As before, we have divided these numbers by the factor 0.7 to represent Monsanto's estimated share of the total commercial market from 1962 through 1984. These calculations result in 7',800 and 11,100 sources, respectively.

Finally, although Tables 6 and 7 may approximate the numbers of GTCC sources sold, they exaggerate the numbers of sources that will actually be disposed as GTCC waste. Some sources were undoubtedly disposed before restrictions on commercial disposal of transuranic low-level waste became effective in November 1979. Many sources have been exported or used in new applications. For f

example, within the last few years a well-logging company has donated several l

hundred large AmBe sources to hospitals for use in medical diagnostic l

procedures. Thus, a source having no more use in one application may be successfully used in another. Finally, in many instances small sources have been combined and reencapsulated to form a smaller number of larger sources.

I This is conmionly done for small well-logging sources.

V.

CONCLUSION This report presents the results of an analysis of the sales records and manufacturing logs for the Monsanto Research Corporation. From 1962 through 1984, Monsanto dominated the commercial market for manufacture of large transuranic sources.

Detailed sales records were available for 1970 through 1983. During these years, 52% of the Mons &nto sales were to well-logging customers, 19% to reactors, 9% to foreign entities, and only 3% to the government. One company

-- SchlumberSer -- accounted for 94% of the well-logging sales, or fully 49% of all Monsanto sales.

Monsanto r, manufactured 11,60s.1 transuranic sources, of which 8,300 are estimated tc contain transuranic isotcpes in quantities that, if disposed [We used a 30-Ci would exceed the Class C concentration limits as listed in 10 CFR Part 61.

criterion to identify a GTCC source.) Assuming that Monsanto represented 70%

of the commercial transuranic source market, as estimated by a former Monsanto manager, this implies manufacture, through 1984, of 11,800 GTCC transuranic sources by the commercial industry.

We also estimated the numbers of sources, as sold by Monsanto, for which disposal would be subject to NRC licensing under the Amendments Act. This estimate was made by excluding sources sold to DOE, to DOE contractors, to laboratories known to be heavily involved in nuclear navy or nuclear weapons programs, and to Toreign entities.

We calculated 7,800 GTCC sources, or 11,100 sources manufactured by the total commercial industry, if we again assume that Monsanto represented 70% of the market.

It is important to recognize, however, that although these estimates may approximate the numbers of GTCC sources sold, they exaggerate the nunbers of sources that will actually be disposed as GTCC waste. Some sources were undoubtedly disposed before restrictions on transuranic disposal became effective. Many sources have been exported or used in new applications. Many small well-logging sources have been combined to form a smaller number of larger sources.

Furthermore, the estimates are exagger sted because of a number of conservative assumptions made in response to uncertainties. These assumptions tend to exaggerate the calculated numbers of GTCC sources sold for connercial application in the United States.

The uncertainties could be significantly reduced by analyzing the individual Monsanto shipment records. Although several thousand manifests would have to be reviewed, the job would be greatly facilitated using computer storage and data manipulation tcchniques. From this analysis, one could positively identify the sizes of the sources and, because the manifests contain the addresses of the customers, positively ioentify the specific facilities to which the sources were delivered. Dr.e could precisely calculate the

distribution of the sources among comercial and government customers, as well I

as the distribution of the sources among foreign and domestic customers.

Uncertainties could be further reduced by obtaining and analyzing the records of other companies manufacturing transuranic sources. This project would obtain information that would be used to assess Monsanto's estimate of their 70% market share.

20555 Attn:

Mr. Garry Roles This is pursuant to your telephone discussion with our Mr. R. L. Schimmel on 20 February and myself on 22 February 1985 regarding sealed radiation sources containing transuranic radioisotopes.

We have examined our records and pre-pared a listing by radioisotope of the number of sealed radioisotope sources which Monsanto has manufactured and delivered since our commercial operation started in 1961.

As verbally indicated, we have not. included the very low-level sources of quantities negligable to the subject inquiry.

It is our estimate that Monsanto has generally supplied approximately 70% of the market for sealed radiation sources containing these radioisotopes.

Other suppliers of such soureus include Gulf Nuclear Corporation and Nuclear Sources and Services, Inc. both in Texas, New England Nuclear Corporation, Numec Corporation (now ARCO Inc. ; closed), U.S. Nuclear Corporation (closed), and the Radiochemical Centre, Amersham England.

We trust this is the information you need and if we can offer further assis-tance, please contact me.

Very t ly yours,

b, Summary of Telephone Conversation Person called: Harold Coleman EG8G-Mound Laboratory

-(Formerly of Monsanto, Dayton Laboratory)

Person callingi G.W. Roles Division of Low-Level Waste Management and Decommissioning, NMSS Date:

March 28, 1989 Telephone:

513-865-4020

Subject:

Information About Sealed Sources Manufactured by Monsanto By February 22, 1985 letter, Harold Coleman sent me sunnary information.

(attached) regarding the numbers and types of sealed sources manufactured and distributed by Monsanto during the years 1961 through 1984 Mr. Coleman l

estimated that during this period, Monsanto distributed about 9200 transuranic sources, supplying approximately 70% of the market for sealed sources containing transuranic radioisotopes. Mr. Coleman was telephoned in an attempt to obtain additional information regarding the sources distributed; specifically: the numbers of well-logging sources sold and the numbers of 3

sources distributed by or to the federal government.

Mr. Coleman explained that most of the records on company customers and operation were discarded when the Monsanto-Dayton sealed source operation was terminated and the facility decommissioned. He estimated, however, that to the best of his recollection, about 98 to 99 percent of the americium sales were to commercial customers. About 80 to 90 percent of the AmBe activity was sold as well-logging sources, and of these sources, about 30 to 90 percent were high-activity (on the order of 16 curies apiece) well-logging sources sol'd to

~Schlumberger.

Some of the Pu-238/Be sources, up to 50 curies in size, were also used for well-logging.

Mr Coleman thought that Monstanto's government work was negligible. Monsanto didn't actively seek government work. Almost all, however, of the 466 Pu-239/Be sources listed in his 2/22/85 letter were manufactured using government-owned material.

(Six to eight Pu-239/Be sources were manufactured using plutonium purchased from the Atomic Energy Commission and were exported.)

Mr. Coleman thought that most of these Pu-239 sources, which were leased to universities and other organizations, had been returned to the federal government.

(I told I had the impression that there were a number of Pu-239/Be sources still in cir lati

.)

" cable sources" and typically 3 curies in size)ystem check sources (also c Monsanto manufactured 1 to 200 AmBe reactor s for the nuclear navy. Monsanto

= _ _.

- - - D

4 l

HC TC 3/28/89 also manufactured for the navy some Pu-238/Be reactor start-up and large check sources using government-owned plutonium.

In addition, Monsanto manufactured sources for other federal government agencies using government-owned Pu-238. Monsanto made at least a dozen 50-curie Pu-238/Be sources for Brookhaven.

These large sources were used for medical activation analysis techniques and all were made using government-owned plutonium.

As he recalled, Los Alamos purchased a number of Pu-238 neutron sources using unusual target elements, including lithium, boron, and fluorine. These sources were generally made using commercially owned Pu-238. Mr. Coleman could not recall whether any were made using government-owned material.

Mr. Coleman suggested that I contact Mr. Richand Hart of Monsanto Laboratories (513-268-3411). He thought that Mr. Hart might have some additional information.

In particular, Mr. Hart might ce able to discuss the Monsanto shipping papers.

These shipping papers indicate the identities of the customers and what the customers were shipped, although these records might currently not be in the best order. To Mr. Coleman's recollection, the records f.illed a couple of file drawers.

(Note: To ensure an accurate transcription of the conversation, this summary was reviewed and edited by Mr. Coleman.)

JUL 101989 MEMORANDUM FOR: John Austin, Acting Chief i

Regulatory Branch Division of Low-Level Waste Management j

and Decommissioning FROM:

G.W. Roles Regulatory Branch Division of Low-Level Waste Management and Decommissioning

SUBJECT:

JUNE 30 VISIT TO MONSANTO FACILITY IN DAYTON, OHIO The purpose of the trip was~ to review and copy records of manufacture and distribution of sealed sources by the Monsanto Corporation.

From 1962 through 1984, Monsanto manufactured several thousand high-activity sealed sources containing americium-241 and other transuranic isotopes.

To copy the records, I used a portable, single-feed copier borrowed from NRC. My contact at Monsanto was Mr. Richard Hart (513-268-3411).

While Monsanto was producing sealed sources, a considerable number of records i

were maintained. When Monsanto ceased operation, however, and decommissioned its sealed source manufacturing facility, many of the records were discarded, leaving only those required by NRC regulations.

Of the available records, those of immediate interest to us include copies of actual shipment manifests, the manufacturing log books, and sales sumaries listing customers and charges.

I had hoped to find records that summarized, in one location, the following),

j 1

information:

dates, source numbers and descriptions (sizes, isotopes, etc.

and customers.

I had hoped that the manufacturing log books would provide this summary. Unfortunately, the log books were incomplete and the writing in many cases difficult to decipher. Available sumary information concentrated on j

sales to customers, although for many years Monsanto maintained logs that l

summarized the numbers of sources sold and their sizes. This meant that the only way to get complete information was to copy all the shipment manifests.

The shipment manifests were organized by year and by month. Unfortunately, it soon came apparent that desk-model copier I was using was far too slow to copy I

all manifests in one day. Assuming I had access to e high-speed, automatic-feed copier with collator, such as the ones available for staff use at the White Flint offices, the job of copying and organizing the manifests could have been completed in about half a day. As it was, I was forced to compromise.

I copied one entire year (1978) of shipment mainfests, plus for each y(ear of operation, available sumary information.

Generally, customer lists and sales on a dollar basis) were available on a yearly basis, as were lists of the numbers of sources sold, plus isotopes and sizes.

I also copied those portions of the log books that addressed manufacture of sources containing isotopes of interest to us.

(Samples of the information obtained are enclosed.) The A

2 effort took a day of continuous work, from first coffee at 8:15 a.m. until the office was closed and the records storage vault locked at 4:30 p.m.

The information that was obtained will definitely be useful to us.

But this information is incomplete and is spread through hundreds of sheets of paper.

How can we process the data? As one option we could sort through the information in-house. We would concentrate on hitting high points such as identifying the largest customers and estimating the numbers of sources distributed by assuming proportional relationships to the doller values of the sales. Alternatively, we could arrange to have a contractor sort the information.

Better yet, perhaps DOE would be willing to compile and sort the data as part of their greater-than-Class C effort.

If we adopt the second option, I suggest that im consider paying Monsanto to copy all of the shipment manifests. The shipumt manifests are organized by year and by month, and the job could be compfstes using a high speed, automatic-feed, copier in a few hours.

Certainly the total cost would not exceed $1X.

I discussed the possibility of such a purchase order with Mr.

Hart, so that if we went ahead with the purchase, he would know the particular records we are interested in.

l I also suggest traveling to Houston, TX to obtain similar shipment records from i

Gulf Nuclear. While in operation, I understand that Gulf Nuclear manufactured and distributed 1000 to 2000 large transuranic sources, mainly well-logging sources. Gulf Nuclear personnel have expressed a willingness to permit our access to their records. We could perhaps combine the visit with one to Nuclear Sources and Services, Inc., a company currently storing thousands of well-logging and other sources.

f 1 UNERTAINTIESINTHEANALYSISOFTHEMONSANTORECORDS Our analysis of the Monsanto sales records and manufacturing logs was hindered by a few uncertainties. Regarding the sales records, we occasionally observed apparent anomalies. For example, Monsanto listed sales to KWU, a German reactor. manufacturer, usually ' as a foreign sale but sometimes as a reactor sale. On other occasions, Monsanto listed sales to some government organizations (such as the U.S. Air Force) as " miscellaneous" sales. Overall, however, we believe that these anomalies were minor and that the sense of the analysis results is valid. Regarding the logs, the most significant uncertainties pertained to identifying the sizes of the sources and the specific customers. Contributing to these uncertainties was a change, made by Monsanto in 1971, in the format of the manufacturing logs. The earlier logs are detailed, generally providing source l sizes and other information that help to track delivery of the sources to particular customers. But the later logs are terse, providing little more than the source identification numbers and the names of the customers. (See 1 Appendix F for example pages from the logs.) l l Thus, size information was available for only a sampling of the sources. For many types of sources, this sampling was less than 50%. For some types of sources, no size information was given. In these cases, we assumed that all i sources contained radionuclides in sufficient quantities that, when disposed, i would ex:eed Class C concentration limits as listed in 10 CFR Part 61 1 (greater-than-Class-C(GTCC) sources). Although the customers were almost always identified, the logs didn't provide l the customers' addresses. One customer may operate several facilities, and in many cases, the logs didn't identify the specific facility to which the source l was delivered. This made it difficult to distinguish whether a source was bought by a commercial entity or by a government contractor, an important distinction considering the provisions of the Low-Level Radioactive Waste consulted the Monsanto sales records (p make this distinction, we frequently 1 Policy Amendments Act of 1985. To hel see Appendix C). For example, a log citation for the " University of California" could refer to a college campus, to Los Alamos National Laboratory, or to Lawrence Livermore i Laboratory. Similarly, Westinghouse was described in ten different ways: i Westinghouse Westinghouse-NES, Westinghouse-xxxx (a varying, four-letter i alphabet soup, probably referring to different nuclear utilities), Westinghouse-ARD, Westinghouse-PAD, Westinghouse-APD, Westinghouse-Boron, Westinghouse-Astro, Westinghouse R&D, and Westinghouse-Bettis. We couldn't I reliably distinguish sources used in government projects (certainly Westinghouse-Bettis, and apparently Westinghouse-PAD) from sources used in commercial projects. This was also a concern for companies such as EG&G or

y

i 2 ( Onion Carbide that operate facilities under contract for the Department of Energy (DOE). For such companies we assumed purchase of the sources for commercial projects unless the logs specifically noted transfer of the sources to government facilities. It was occasionally difficult to tell when sources were delivered to foreign entities, although the sales records provided insight. Many of the customers listed in the logs were multi-national organizations (e.g., ORTEC, Harshaw Chemical Co.), presenting us with the dilemma of deciding whether a source was delivered to the national or foreign branch of the organization. Unless the logs (or sales records) indicated otherwise, we conservatively assumed thac the sources remained in the United States. A minor, yet irritating, problem was that all the citations in the early logs were crossed out. The cross-marks sometimes made it difficult to identify corrections made to the logs when the sources were originally manufactured. That is, if a log citation is crossed out, does it mean that the source order was cancelled (and perhaps the source not actually manufactured), or does it j mean that the source was manufactured and that the record was subsequently obscured? (We assumed the latter.) We suspect that the cross-marks were made well after the original citations, hypothetically as a way of marking transfer of data fron, the logs to other forms. However, we didn't observe any of these ) new, hypothetical forms during our June 30 visit. j Other concerns were as follows: In scattered cases the serial numbers for specific types of sources were duplichted. In scattered cases the handwriting in the logs was difficult to decipher. Sources were occasionally rented. Some of the rentals were converted to sales and others were rented or sold to other customers. In some cases sources were returned to Monsanto for rework. For these reworked sources, we often couldn't tell whether the original serial numbers were retained or whether new serial numbers were given. We coriservatively assumed the former situation. In some cases, either customers weren't identified for particular serial nusbers (e.g., an order was cancelled), or there were skips in the sequence of serial numbers. In such cases, we assumed that sources corresponding to these serial numbers were manufactured. In a few cases sources were transferred to Monsanto stock. Generally, the ultimate fate of the soerces, whether transferred to ancther party or disposed as low-level waste, wasn't indicated. All in all, we rasponded to the uncertainties by making conservative l assumptions. These assumptions tend to exaggerate the calculated numbers of GTCC sources; exaggerate the numbers of sources sold for commercial, rather )

3 l than government, applications; and exaggerate the numbers of sources delivered to domestic, rather than foreign, entities. The uncertainties could be significantly reduced by analyzing the individual Monsanto shipment records. Although this would require reviewing several thousand manifests, the job would be greatly facilitated using computer storage and data manipulation technioues. From this analysis, one could positively identify the sizes of the sources and, because the manifests contain the addresses of the customers, positively identify the specific facilities to which the sources were delivered. One could precisely calculate the distribution of the sources among commercial and government custemers, as well as the distribution of the sources among foreign and domestic customers. 1 ____-_m_.m__________.___-
