This room is typical iargo sized laboratory for this building. It is about 10 meters from the door ,to the rear wall and 15 meters from-the left to the right wall. The r -

building was constructed in l 96~. In February ~O 12 the room* was commissioned for using !ilpha emitting radioactive materials, such as Np-237; U-nat, Thi-0at, U-235 for -Dr. -Jo~ovic,

- the authorized Principle lnvestigator-(PI). Special nuclear materials (enriched U-235) were authorized to *be used in this *room after the SNM-95 license was amended in 20t_4. Dr. Jovanovic transferred his authorization to the current ,PI br. Flaska in February2016 due-to his leaving from ge~ State. Two ofDr. Jovanovic's graduate

' students worked- as radiation workers

. under the current Pl's authorization until May -

'27, 2016, when the last U~23~ foil was transp~rted-*back to the nµcl~ reactor fo:r storage.

Since then no dispersible* radioactive material _or special nuclear material has been used or stored 'in. this room. The c~nt PI- uses. orily Cf-252 and Na-22 ~ed sohrces.

\ ~

The walls are constructed of cinder block, the floor is tile -~d the ceiling is ceilin~ tile.

There are no 'cabinets *or work.benches in the lab. The desks~ .tables are typ1cal wood and mebtl co~ctions. . .

. R,adioisotope Usage lfistory F.or the purposes of this survey, a review of the Radiation Protection Office's records indicates that this area .had been used by the following Principie ~vestigators:

Radiation Survey I . . . -.

_A radiation survey of this ar~ wa_s performed with a Radiation ln~tor, serial number 5160, which was last calibrated *on 5/4/2018, and is *due for*

calibratio~ ~n 5/4/20 I 9. An areas were appr~,dmalely al backg~und level~

for this*building _and all levels were less tha-n 0.05 nire!ll pet hour.

a

~ T~e ra~alion survey included compJ~t~ *check of the f'.loor, bench tops, tables, cabinets, cfyawers, sinks, hoods, and any equipment*in the lab at ..the

  • I . ..

time of the survey. T)le two sealed sources (Cf252 and'Na-22) in th~ lab were relocated as needed during the radiation survey.*See the survey and conclu~ion section t~ see if any ductwo.fk was scanned. T~e backID..ou*nd .for this survey was approximately 0.02 mre~ per hour and was taken in the hallway adjac¢nt to the lab.

Contanii~ation S~c.y There was no contamination found during this survey. A search of previous* surveys i;howed that anytime 03ntamination was found in the l~b it was decontaminated and the area was re-surveyed to ensure* it was cleaned.

All sm~ars/ samples taken were counted in the Bepk;man LS6500 LSC (sin 7069263).

PageZ of-10

Samples were counted for one minute and the LSC's external standard was used to ensure that the samples did not have excessive quench or color luminescence. The I

efficiency for tritium and carbon-14 in the LSC is detemlined by the equations in the Table 1. The H# is the Beckman term for the spectrum displacement ratio of the

.external standard.

All lab benches, floors, and other accessible areas were surveyed for contamination with 2 hand-held meters; an alpha meter described in the "Alpha Contamination" section and a GM survey meter. The GM meter utilizes a pancake probe with a 12 cm2 active area. A survey rate of about one to two inches per second was 1:)-Sed to look for contamination. The background count rate was about 65 cpm. The speaker was "ON" at all times during the contamination survey.

Alpha Contamination D Alpha emitting radionuclides were ruu used In this lab.

[!] Alpha emitting radlonuclides were used in this lab.

In addition, all lab benches, floors, and other accessible areas were surveyed for alpha contamination with a Ludlum Model 3 hand-held meter. The meter was used with an alpha probe Ludlum Model 43-90 which has an active area of 125 cm 2

  • The serial number of the meter is 148958, was calibrated on 03/13/2018 and is due for calibration on 3/13/2019. A survey rate of about one to two inches per second was used to loo~ for contamination. 'J)ie background count rate was about 6 cpm. The speaker was "ON" at all times during the contamination survey. The background count rate was determined in the hallway ad1acent to the lab.

Liquid Contamination No water sample from sink traps were collected or analyzed for the. presence of radioactive material because there are no sinks present in this lab.

Hoods

[!] Hoods are !ill! present In this lab.

D Hoods are present in this lab.

The area of the hood that could be reached was surveyed with a meter. Wipes were counted in a liquid scintillation counter. No contamination was found.

Adjacent ~a Survey In order to meet the adjacent area survey requirement a contamination/ radiation survey was conducted in 'the hallway and graduate student office area. This adjacent area survey is documented on the attached laboratory sur:vey map.

Criteria for Release The NRC's NUREG-1757 Vol 2, Rev 1, Consolidated Decommissioning Guidance Ch9racterization, Survey, and Determination of Radiologtca/.Criteria Final Report, September 2006, Appendix H, provides surface contamination levels for fourteen radionuclides that mee~the criteria of10CFR20.1402 Radiological criteria for unrestricted use. An NRC Supplemental Information on the Implementation of the

. Final Rule on Radiological Criteria for License Termination (63 FR 64132, November 18, iQ98) from which Table H.1 (below) was taken states that:

Sites with building surface contamination levels below those listed in Table 1 would be deemed acceptable for release for unrestricted use in accordance with the dose criteria in 10 CFR 20.1402, provided that residual radioactivity has been reduced to "as low as reasonably achievable" (ALARA) levels.

Conclusion D All radioactive material has been removed from this area. A1i" 11radioactive material" labels and "Caution Radioactive ,Material" signs have been removed. All surveys indicate that t4e radiation levels,are indistinguishable from nonruil background levels.

All areas are free from fixed and removable radioactive contamination. Thus, the area described herein is suitable for unrestricted use in a~cordance with 10CFR20 subpart E.

iXl The purp~e of this survey was to decommission the area from a previous Principle LJ Investigator's use of dispersible alpha emitting isotopes. All surveys indicate that the radiation levels are indistinguishable from normal background levels. All surveys show that the accessible areas are free from fixed and removable radioactive contamination. Only sealed radioactive sources will be used in this fa.~ afte;rr the date of decommission. No d~mmission process is required to release the areator unrestricted use when the l~b is closed out for sealed radioactive source use in the future. If the use of dispersible radioactive materials is resumed in this lab, the area will be surveyed and decommissioned accordingly.
