SUBJECT:
Request for Exemptions under 10CFR30.11 and 10CFR70.17 for Alternate Disposal of Wastes from Columbia Fuel Fabrication Facility under 10CFR20.2002
Dear Sirs:
Westinghouse Electric Company, LLC (WEC) submitted a request for an Alternate Disposal Authorization under 10CFR20.2002 to which US Ecology Idaho (USEI) is a party (Document# LTR-RAC-21-42, dated June 1, 2021). The Alternate Disposal submission was for approximately 322,000 cubic feet (ft3) of volumetrically contaminated material and 122,000 cubic feet (ft3) of surface contaminated material containing byproduct and special nuclear material from activities associated with the processes at the Columbia Fuel Fabrication Facility (Docket No. 70-1151, License No.
SNM-1107). These volumes are annual limits which reset each year for the duration of the period requested in the above mentioned WEC submittal. The Alternate Disposal would occur at US Ecology Idaho, a RCRA Subtitle C hazardous and low-activity radioactive waste treatment and disposal facility located near Grand View, ID.
Pursuant to final NRC approval of the above referenced submittal, US Ecology requests an exemption from the licensing requirements published in 10CFR30.3 and 10CFR70.3 for our Grand View, ID facility to allow for disposal of these wastes.
If you have any questions or wish to discuss this request further, I can be reached at (208) 319-1621 or timothy.jenkins@usecology.com.
Sincerely, Tim Jenkins US Ecology Corporate Health Physicist US ECOLOGY, INC.
