Subject:
Request for Exemptions from 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(i) and (ii) for use of Nuclear Decommissioning Trust Funds for Disposal of Major Radioactive Components During Operations Arkansas Nuclear One, Units 1 & 2 NRC Docket Nos. 50-313 and 50-368 Renewed Facility Operating License Nos. DPR-51 & NPF-6
Dear Sir or Madam:
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, Entergy Operations, Inc. (EOI) requests exemptions from 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(i) and (ii) for Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) Units 1 and 2 to allow the immediate withdrawal of a small portion of the funds from the ANO Unit 1 and Unit 2 nuclear decommissioning trust funds (DTF) to facilitate the prompt disposal of certain retired Major Radioactive Components (MRCs).
Specifically, EOI seeks approval to use the DTFs, not to exceed $20 million per Unit, to promptly dispose of the following MRCs:
Unit 1 - Two steam generators and one reactor vessel closure head that were removed from service in 2005.
Unit 2 - Two steam generators that were removed from service in 2000.
Currently, these MRCs are stored in long-term onsite storage facilities at ANO, which have reached their capacity. During the Unit 2 refueling outage that is currently planned for Spring 2026, EOI plans to replace the existing reactor vessel closure head ("RVCH"), which will require EOI to remove the component from service and store it onsite. Unless capacity can be recovered from the current onsite storage facilities, EOI will have to build a new facility to store the Unit 2 RVCH. However, if EOI were to dispose of the older MRCs that were removed from service in 2000 and 2005 to make room for the Unit 2 RVCH, then it could avoid the costs to construct the new facility, as well as the ongoing maintenance costs and the eventual costs to decommission the new storage facility.
If approved, the exemptions will facilitate the prompt removal of radiologically contaminated material from ANO, reduce overall decommissioning costs, and reduce an unnecessary
CNRO2024-00026 Page 2 of 3 regulatory burden on EOI and costs associated with continuing to maintain and store the MRCs on site.
The Enclosure to this letter sets forth the basis for EOIs exemption request and includes supporting information outlined in "Interim Staff Guidance on the Use of the Decommissioning Trust Fund During Operations for Major Radioactive Component Disposal (REFS-ISG-2024-01)," to assist the Staffs review of this request. Consistent with 10 CFR 50.12(a), and as demonstrated in the Enclosure, the requested exemptions: (1) are authorized by law; (2) will not present an undue risk to the public health and safety; (3) are consistent with the common defense and security; and (4) are supported by special circumstances.
Further, approving the requested exemptions would be consistent with the NRCs decommissioning regulations (see, e.g., 10 CFR 50.82(a)(6)) as they would not:
(1) foreclose release of the site for possible unrestricted use; (2) result in significant environmental impacts not previously reviewed; or (3) result in there no longer being reasonable assurance that adequate funds will be available for decommissioning.
EOI is submitting these exemption requests now because timely resolution of this issue is needed to support planning activities for the removal and disposal of the MRCs. If space in the current storage facilities cannot be recovered and additional onsite storage capacity is required, EOI plans to begin construction activities for the new facility by September 2025. Accordingly, EOI respectfully requests a response from the NRC by August 1, 2025, to avoid the resource allocation and other related expenses, which would be avoided if funds in the DTFs can be used for the prompt disposal of the MRCs.
This letter contains no new regulatory commitments.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact me at 601-368-5102.

I.
EXEMPTIONS REQUESTED AND PURPOSE Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, Entergy Operations, Inc. (EOI) requests that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) grant exemptions from the requirements of 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(i) and (ii) to allow the immediate withdrawal of a small portion of the funds from the Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) Unit 1 and Unit 2 nuclear decommissioning trust funds (DTF) to cover the cost of disposal of certain retired major radioactive components (MRCs).
EOI seeks approval to use funds in the DTFs, up to $20 million per Unit, to promptly dispose of the following retired MRCs at ANO:
Unit 1 - Two steam generators and one reactor vessel closure head (RVCH) that were removed from service in 2005.
Unit 2 - Two steam generators that were removed from service in 2000.
EOI currently stores these MRCs onsite at ANO in two mausoleums, which have reached their capacity. During the Unit 2 refueling outage that is currently planned for Spring 2026, EOI plans to replace the existing RVCH, which will require EOI to store the RVCH onsite after it is removed from service. Given the anticipated level of radioactivity of the Unit 2 RVCH, prompt disposal of the component is not a feasible option. However, there is insufficient space in either of the existing mausoleums to store the additional RVCH. Accordingly, because it does not have the ability to store the Unit 2 RVCH in the existing mausoleums, EOI must construct a new storage facility if storage space cannot be recovered in the existing mausoleums. Alternatively, however, if EOI were to dispose of the MRCs that were retired in 2000 and 2005, it could gain sufficient storage space for the Unit 2 RVCH, while avoiding the costs to construct a new facility, as well as the ongoing maintenance costs and the eventual costs to decommission the new storage facility.
As noted in the NRCs Interim Staff Guidance on the Use of the Decommissioning Trust Fund During Operations for Major Radioactive Component Disposal (ISG), the NRC recognizes that once a reactor has permanently ceased operations, the disposal of MRCs is a legitimate decommissioning activity for which DTF funds may be used.1 Furthermore, the Arkansas Public Service Commission (APSC) has authorized the collection of funds from ratepayers to ensure the DTFs are properly funded to pay for decommission costs, which include disposing the MRCs at issue. Thus, there is no controversy over whether the ANO DTFs can be used to dispose of the retired MRCs. Rather, it is merely a matter of timing of when those funds may be used. This exemption request seeks a modest acceleration of the withdrawal of the DTF funds for the disposal activities by approximately 10 years for Unit 1 and approximately 15 years for Unit 2.2 1

CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 3 of 12 II.
APPLICABLE REGULATIONS The NRC regulations in 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(i) provide that decommissioning trust funds may be used by licensees if:
(A)
The withdrawals are for expenses for legitimate decommissioning activities consistent with the definition of decommissioning in § 50.2; (B)
The expenditure would not reduce the value of the decommissioning trust below an amount necessary to place and maintain the reactor in a safe storage condition if unforeseen conditions or expenses arise and; (C)
The withdrawals would not inhibit the ability of the licensee to complete funding of any shortfalls in the decommissioning trust needed to ensure the availability of funds to ultimately release the site and terminate the license.
Section 50.2 defines the term "decommission" as:
to remove a facility or site safely from service and reduce residual radioactivity to a level that permits-(1) release of the property for unrestricted use and termination of the license; or (2) release of the property under restricted conditions and termination of the license.
NRC has further conditioned the withdrawal of decommissioning trust funds by limiting the timing of withdrawals from the trust. For example, 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(ii) provides:
Initially, 3 percent of the generic amount specified in § 50.75 may be used for decommissioning planning. For licensees that have submitted the certifications required under § 50.82(a)(1) and commencing 90 days after the NRC has received the [post-shutdown decommissioning activities report], an additional 20 percent may be used. A site-specific decommissioning cost estimate must be submitted to the NRC prior to the licensee using any funding in excess of these amounts.
In the absence of an exemption from these regulations by the NRC, they would restrict EOIs ability to use the ANO Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs for the disposal of MRCs prior to permanent cessation of operations at each of ANOs units.
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, the NRC may grant exemptions from the agencys regulatory requirements if they are:
(1) Authorized by law, will not present an undue risk to the public health and safety, and are consistent with the common defense and security.
(2) The Commission will not consider granting an exemption unless special circumstances are present.

CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 4 of 12 III.
JUSTIFICATION FOR EXEMPTION AND SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES For the reasons discussed below, EOIs exemption request satisfies the requirements for specific exemptions, as set forth in 10 CFR 50.12.
A. The Requested Exemptions Are Authorized by Law The requested exemptions from 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(i) and (ii) would allow EOI to immediately withdraw a small portion of the funds from the ANO Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs to facilitate the prompt disposal of certain retired MRCs. As stated above, 10 CFR 50.12 allows the NRC to grant exemptions from the requirements of 10 CFR Part 50. The proposed exemptions would not result in a violation of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, or the Commission's regulations. Therefore, the exemptions are authorized by law.
B. The Requested Exemptions Do Not Present an Undue Risk to the Public Health and Safety The underlying purpose of 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(i) and (ii) is to provide reasonable assurance that adequate funds will be available for decommissioning within 60 years of permanent cessation of operations.3 As demonstrated in the site-specific DCE and the cash flow analyses provided in Attachments 1, 2 and 3, using a small portion of the Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs for the prompt disposal of certain retired MRCs will not adversely impact EOIs ability to terminate the Unit 1 or Unit 2 licenses within the required decommissioning timeframe.
Based on the above, no new accident precursors would be created by using the DTFs in the proposed manner. Thus, the probability of postulated accidents is not increased. Nor would the consequences of any postulated accidents be increased. No changes are being made in the types or amounts of effluents that may be released offsite. There is no significant increase in occupational or public radiation exposure. To the contrary, the prompt removal and disposal of significant source terms from the site would enhance public health and safety. Therefore, the requested exemptions will not present an undue risk to the public health and safety.
C. The Requested Exemptions Will Not Endanger the Common Defense and Security Allowing the use of funds in the DTFs for the immediate disposal of MRCs would not alter the scope of, or the availability of sufficient funding for the ANO security program and would not adversely affect EOIs ability to physically secure the site and to protect special nuclear material.
Therefore, the requested exemptions will not endanger the common defense and security.
3 See,e.g.,RegulatoryGuide1.159,Rev.2,atSectionB("theruleondecommissioningrequiresthatapplicants andlicenseesprovideadequateassurancethatadequatefundsfordecommissioningwillbeavailableatthe endofoperation");seealso10CFR50.82(a)(3)(60yearrequirement).
CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 5 of 12 D. Special Circumstances Support Granting the Requested Exemptions Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12(a)(2), special circumstances must be present for the NRC to grant an exemption to its regulations. Here, special circumstances do exist and support granting the requested exemptions, and the applicable Section 50.12(a)(2) criteria are addressed below.
- 1. Application of the regulations in the particular circumstances would not serve the underlying purpose of the rule or is not necessary to achieve the underlying purpose of the rule
(§ 50.12(a)(2)(ii)).
As discussed above, the underlying purpose of 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(i) and (ii) is to provide reasonable assurance that adequate funds will be available for decommissioning within 60 years of permanent cessation of operations. The application of the regulations prohibits the expenditure of funds in the DTFs for the prompt disposal of the retired MRCs in this circumstance, which is not necessary to achieve the underlying purpose of the rules. As demonstrated in the cash flow analyses provided in Attachments 2 and 3, the Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs will have more than sufficient funding to complete decommissioning of the respective Units, even if certain funds are withdrawn in the near-term for early disposal of the MRCs.
- 2. Compliance would result in undue hardship or other costs that are significantly in excess of those contemplated when the regulation was adopted, or that are significantly in excess of those incurred by others similarly situated (§ 50.12(a)(2)(iii)).
Compliance with the restrictions on the use of the decommissioning funds would result in an undue hardship on EOI because of EOIs continued need to store the Unit 2 RVCH onsite at ANO. In particular, if EOI is unable to remove the retired MRCs from the two existing mausoleums and dispose of them promptly, EOI must construct an additional storage facility to house the Unit 2 RVCH that will be removed from service in 2026. Compliance with 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(i) and (ii) would create an unnecessary regulatory burden in that it would cause EOI to use operating revenues to build and maintain a third storage facility, monitor any releases, and eventually decommission the facility, rather than allowing EOI to use decommissioning funds that were collected to cover the costs of disposing of these MRCs. The construction costs alone are estimated to be $2.2 million, plus additional maintenance costs over the lifetime of the facility and eventual decommissioning costs.
Alternatively, requiring EOI to use operating revenues to fund the prompt disposal of the retired MRCs would also result in a similar undue hardship to EOI, in that the Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs already include funds that were collected to cover the disposal costs for the very same MRCs at issue.
- 3. The exemptions would result in a benefit to the public health and safety that compensates for any decrease in safety that may result from the grant of the exemptions
(§ 50.12(a)(2)(iv)).
Granting the requested exemptions would not result in any decrease in safety. It would, however, result in a benefit to the public health and safety in at least two respects. First, the near-term disposal of the retired MRCs ensures that the components will be removed from the site and disposed of, in that it secures disposal space at facilities with limited capacity at current prices. In addition, prompt removal of the source term from the site created by the retired MRCs furthers the objective of maintaining radiation exposures as low as reasonably achievable pursuant to 10 CFR 20.1101(b) by minimizing the potential for long-term exposure.
CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 6 of 12
- 4. There is present any other material circumstance not considered when the regulation was adopted for which it would be in the public interest to grant an exemption (§ 50.12(a)(2)(vi)).
There are several material circumstances that were not considered when 10 CFR 50.82(a)(8)(i) and (ii) were adopted that would weigh in favor of granting the requested exemptions from those regulations. At the time the NRC promulgated the rule, NRC regulations did not require, and have never since required, the development of site-specific DCEs prior to the last five years of the operating life of the plant, but instead, it assumed that such estimates would be developed at around the time a plant ceases operation. See 10 CFR § 50.75(f)(2). Although there may be an understandable preference for preserving funds in the DTFs in the absence of site-specific decommissioning activity and cost information, a detailed site-specific DCE provides the NRC with the ability to determine whether there is reasonable assurance that sufficient funds will be available at the time of decommissioning. Here, the information provided in the site-specific DCE and cash flow analyses included as Attachments 1, 2 and 3 support a reasonable assurance determination and the granting of the requested exemptions.
IV.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT The proposed exemptions meet the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(25), because the proposed exemptions involve: (1) no significant hazards consideration; (2) no significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite; (3) no significant increase in individual or cumulative public or occupational radiation exposure; (4) no significant construction impact; (5) no significant increase in the potential for or consequences from radiological accidents; and (6) the requirements involve surety, insurance or indemnity requirements or other requirements of an administrative nature. Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the proposed exemptions.
A. No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination For the reasons discussed below, Entergy Operations, Inc. (EOI) concludes that the requested exemptions do not present any significant hazards, and therefore, consistent with 10 CFR 50.92, a finding of "no significant hazards consideration" is warranted.
- 1. The requested exemptions do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
The proposed exemptions would allow EOI to withdraw funds from the Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) Unit 1 and Unit 2 nuclear decommissioning trust funds (DTF) to dispose of retired Major Radioactive Components (MRCs). The requested exemptions have no effect on plant structures, systems, and components (SSCs) and no effect on the capability of any plant SSC to perform its design function. The proposed exemptions would not increase the likelihood of the malfunction of any plant SSC. The proposed exemptions would have no effect on any of the previously evaluated accidents in the Unit 1 or Unit 2 Updated Safety Analysis Reports. Use of DTFs as contemplated under the exemptions will not affect the probability of occurrence of any previously analyzed accident. Therefore, the requested exemptions do not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 7 of 12
- 2. The requested exemptions do not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
The proposed exemptions do not involve a physical alteration of the plant. No new or different type of equipment will be installed, and there are no physical modifications to existing equipment associated with the proposed exemptions. Similarly, the proposed exemptions will not physically change any SSCs involved in the mitigation of any accidents.
Thus, no new initiators or precursors of a new or different kind of accident are created.
Furthermore, the proposed exemptions do not create the possibility of a new accident as a result of new failure modes associated with any equipment or personnel failures. No changes are being made to parameters within which the Units are normally operated, or in the setpoints which initiate protective or mitigative actions, and no new failure modes are being introduced. Therefore, the proposed exemptions do not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
- 3. The requested exemptions do not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
The requested exemptions do not alter the design basis or any safety limits for the plant.
The proposed exemptions do not impact station operation or any plant SSC that is relied upon for accident mitigation. Therefore, they do not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
For the reasons discussed above, EOI concludes that the proposed exemptions present no significant hazards consideration, and, accordingly, a finding of "no significant hazards consideration" is justified.
B. There is no significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite.
There are no changes in the types, characteristics, or quantities of effluents discharged to the environment associated with the requested exemptions. There are no materials or chemicals introduced into the Units that could affect the characteristics or types of effluents released offsite. In addition, the method of operation of waste processing systems will not be affected by the exemptions. The proposed exemptions will not result in changes to the design basis requirements of SSCs that function to limit or monitor the release of effluents. All the SSCs associated with limiting the release of effluents will continue to be able to perform their functions. Therefore, the proposed exemptions will not result in any significant change to the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite.
C. There is no significant increase in individual or cumulative public or occupational radiation exposure.
The proposed exemptions do not involve any physical alterations to the plant configuration of either Unit or any changes to the operation of the Units that could lead to a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
D. There is no significant construction impact.
No construction activities are associated with the proposed exemptions.
E. There is no significant increase in the potential for or consequences from radiological accidents.
See the no significant hazards considerations discussion in Section IV.A above.
CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 8 of 12 F. The requirements from which the exemptions are sought involve surety, insurance or indemnity requirements or other requirements of an administrative nature.
The underlying purpose of the requirements from which the exemptions are sought is to provide reasonable assurance that adequate funds will be available for decommissioning, which is administrative in nature.
Accordingly, the requested exemptions meet the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion, and therefore, the preparation of an environmental impact statement or environmental assessment is not required in this case.
V.
EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES JUSTIFY GRANTING THE REQUESTED EXEMPTIONS Consistent with the ISG, EOI is providing the following additional information to demonstrate the existence of extraordinary circumstances that support granting the requested exemptions.4 A. The exemption request meets the requirements for specific exemptions.
As discussed in Section III above, EOIs exemption request satisfies the requirements for specific exemptions, as set forth in 10 CFR 50.12(a)(1).
B. There will be large projected surpluses in the Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs for license termination costs compared with the site-specific DCEs.
As of June 30, 2024, the Unit 1 DTF had a market value of approximately $833.9 million, and the Unit 2 DTF had a market value of approximately $688.6 million. Annual cash flow analyses for Unit 1 and Unit 2 are provided at Attachments 2 and 3, respectively, and are based on the site-specific DCE provided at Attachment 1. The cash flow analyses assume that EOI withdraws up to $20 million from each of the Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs to fund the MRC disposal.
They further assume that major decommissioning activities begin at Unit 1 in 2034 and at Unit 2 in 2038, based on a DECON scenario and an assumption that both Units permanently cease operations at the end of their current period of extended operation. Please note that EOI used these assumptions for conservatism in the cash flow analyses; they do not reflect actual business or operational decisions regarding the decommissioning approach or whether EOI will seek to further extend the Unit 1 and Unit 2 operating licenses, as those decisions have not yet been made. The cash flow analyses also assume that DTF withdrawals are limited to license termination costs. Although it is possible that EOI may request additional exemptions in the future that would allow the use of the DTFs for spent fuel management and/or site restoration activities, EOI has not made any decisions on whether to seek such exemptions at this time.
For each Unit, a large surplus is projected to exist when decommissioning is completed, and adequate decommissioning funding assurance is maintained throughout decommissioning.
Specifically, the Unit 1 DTF is projected to have a surplus of approximately $612 million, and the Unit 2 DTF is projected to have a surplus of approximately $294 million in 2084, when decommissioning is completed (considering only license termination expenditures).
4 SeeISGat4.
CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 9 of 12 C. The site-specific DCE includes the cost of disposing the MRCs described in this exemption request.
As noted in Section I above, the requested exemptions would permit EOI to use the ANO DTFs for the prompt disposal of the following retired MRCs:
Unit 1 - Two steam generators and one RVCH that were removed from service in 2005.
Unit 2 - Two steam generators that were removed from service in 2000.
The site-specific DCE (Attachment 1) includes the following line items related to these MRCs:
DCE Table Activity Index Activity Description Total License Termination Cost Table C-1 2a.1.1.6 Retired Steam Generator Units
$9.582 million Table C-1 2a.2.2 Retired Reactor Closure Head
$3.964 million Table C-2 2a.1.1.6 Retired Steam Generator Units
$14.443 million D. Funds in the Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs were collected for the disposal of retired MRCs.
The funds in the Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs were collected to cover all of the license termination decommissioning activities that are described in the site-specific DCE, including the disposal of the retired MRCs described in this exemption request. In APSC Docket No. 87-166-TF, the APSC issues periodic orders authorizing Entergy Arkansas, LLC, the licensed owner of ANO Units 1 and 2, to collect ratepayer funds to ensure the DTFs are properly funded to pay for decommissioning costs, which include disposal of the retired MRCs at issue. Funds for both Units 1 and 2 were collected from ratepayers through 2001. Additional collections for the Unit 2 DTF were initiated in 2016, with periodic additional collections through year-end 2024.
E. The time period between plant shutdown and the commencement of major radiological decommissioning activities is sufficient to allow accumulation of decommissioning trust funds.
The cash flow analyses provided in Attachments 2 and 3 conservatively assume for purposes of this exemption request that plant shutdown and the commencement of major decommissioning activities will both occur in 2034 for Unit 1 and in 2038 for Unit 2. Although the funding analyses assume that there effectively will be no time for the accumulation of funds in the DTFs between permanent cessation of operations and the commencement of decommissioning, as discussed in Section V.B above, the Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs are nonetheless projected to have surpluses at license termination - approximately $612 million in the Unit 1 DTF and approximately $294 million in the Unit 2 DTF - after the MRC disposal costs are withdrawn from the DTFs in 2025.
If EOI were to apply for, and the NRC were to approve, subsequent license renewal of the Unit 1 and Unit 2 operating licenses, those margins would increase substantially.
F. The current and projected DTF amounts required for decommissioning provide adequate assurance that funds will be available throughout the decommissioning period.
As discussed in Sections V.B and E above, and as demonstrated in the cash flow analyses provided in Attachments 2 and 3, the current and projected DTF amounts for both Unit 1 and Unit 2 provide adequate assurance that sufficient funds will be available throughout the decommissioning period and that surpluses are projected to remain in both DTFs after license termination activities have been completed.
CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 10 of 12 G. Funds for different decommissioning activities are commingled within the ANO DTFs.
For both the Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs, the APSC authorized the collection of funds to cover expected radiological decommissioning and spent fuel management costs during plant operations, as well as site restoration costs. The funds collected for those activities are not segregated into separate subaccounts within the respective DTFs; rather, they are commingled in one account within the respective DTFs. Because the funds collected for different decommissioning activities are commingled and not reported separately to the NRC, they are considered funds to be used only for radiological decommissioning for NRC purposes.
H. The ANO DTFs have historically demonstrated excess funding compared to the NRC minimum formula amount.
As shown in the table below, the Unit 1 DTF amount has consistently have exceeded the minimum formula amounts from 10 CFR 50.75(b) and (c), without taking any credit for future earnings. The Unit 1 DTF balance of approximately $834 million (as of June 30, 2024) exceeds the most recently calculated minimum formula amount (as of December 31, 2022) by $304 million. Moreover, the Unit 1 DTF has continued to exceed the NRC minimum formula amount despite the fact that the formula amount increased dramatically from 2021 to 2023, due to an increase in the pressurized water reactor ("PWR") escalation factor from 4.9 to 5.43. This is due to the increased Labor and Energy factors from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the increased Waste Burial factor from NUREG-1307.
The Unit 2 DTF amount has at times fluctuated above and below the minimum formula amounts when no credit is taken for future earnings, and any apparent deficiencies were corrected by the resumption of ratepayer collections in 2016 for decommissioning. This track record demonstrates EOIs ability and commitment to ensure that the DTF is sufficiently funded.5 The Unit 2 DTF amount compares favorably to the minimum formula amount despite the dramatic increase in the PWR escalation factor from 2021 to 2023, as described above. The Unit 2 DTF balance of approximately $689 million (as of June 30, 2024) is well above the minimum formula of $552M reported in EOIs most recent 10 CFR 50.75(f) filing.

$469 5 Given that EOI has prepared a comprehensive site-specific DCE for ANO (Attachment 1), and the annual cash flow analyses (at Attachments 2 and 3) demonstrate that each Units DTF will have a surplus at the completion of license termination activities, arguably, the cash flow analyses present the more relevant comparison for purposes of this exemption request.
CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 11 of 12 I.
The benefits of using the DTFs for near-term MRC disposal outweigh any potential costs.
As discussed above, because there is insufficient space in either of the existing mausoleums to store the soon-to-be-retired Unit 2 RVCH, EOI must either (1) construct a new storage facility; or (2) dispose of the MRCs that were retired in 2000 and 2005 to create sufficient storage space, at a cost approaching $20 million per Unit. Under the first scenario, EOI must expend $2.2 million to construct a new storage facility, plus additional funds to maintain the facility, and then to ultimately decommission the facility once the MRCs have been sent offsite for disposal. The benefit of using the DTFs for the near-term disposal of the MRCs is the avoidance of these incremental costs.
Under the second scenario, in the absence of the requested exemption, EOI would be required to use operating revenues for the near-term disposal of the MRCs, rather than using the funds that were collected from ratepayers to pay for decommissioning, which includes the disposal of the retired MRCs, as authorized by the APSC. The benefit of using the DTFs for near-term disposal of the MRCs is the realization of the intended purpose of the decommissioning funds that were collected from the ratepayers.
In addition to these benefits, prompt disposal of the MRCs will also result in reduced inventory of radioactive waste and associated source term at the ANO site and elimination of any uncertainty regarding future disposal cost and capacity for these MRCs. In that regard, EOI has obtained a third-party proposal and cost estimate to remove, transport, and dispose of the MRCs beginning in 2025. Therefore, EOI has relative cost certainty for this near-term effort.
EOI would not have comparable cost certainty for the same services a decade or more from now, when decommissioning is anticipated to begin.
J. The financial health of EOIs parent company is robust.
Entergy Corporation (Entergy) is the ultimate parent company of EOI. Entergy is a Fortune 500 company with approximately 3 million customers in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas. Entergy is headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana, and has approximately 12,000 employees. For the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, Entergy reported $12.1 billion in revenues, $2.4 billion in net income, and $59.7 billion in assets.6 Entergy had a market value of approximately $31 billion as of November 1, 2024.
K. In the event of a funding shortfall, rate collection mechanisms are available to obtain additional funds for decommissioning.
As discussed in Section V.D above, the APSC authorizes Entergy Arkansas to collect ratepayer funds to ensure that the DTFs are properly funded for the purpose of decommissioning both Units. Funds for both Units 1 and 2 were collected from ratepayers through 2001, and additional collections for the Unit 2 DTF were initiated in 2016, with periodic additional collections through year-end 2024. EOI and Entergy Arkansas periodically review and update the ANO site-specific DCE to reflect inflation and changes in regulatory requirements and technology, and filings are made annually with the APSC to consider the need for adjusted decommissioning funding. If a funding shortfall were projected, Entergy Arkansas would take 6

CNRO2024-00026 Enclosure Page 12 of 12 the necessary steps to seek APSC approval to collect additional funds to cover the anticipated decommissioning costs.
VI.
CONCLUSION For the reasons discussed above, EOI respectfully requests that the NRC approve the requested exemptions and allow EOI to use a small portion of the ANO Unit 1 and Unit 2 DTFs for the near-term disposal of certain retired MRCs. The requested exemptions are authorized by law, will not present an undue risk to the public health and safety, are consistent with the common defense and security, and special circumstances are present as set forth in 10 CFR 50.12(a)(2)(ii) and (iii). Moreover, extraordinary circumstances exist that justify granting the requested exemptions.

SUMMARY
This report presents estimates of the cost to decommission Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) for the selected decommissioning alternatives following the scheduled and permanent cessation of plant operations. The estimates are designed to provide the owner, Entergy Arkansas, LLC (EAL), with the information to assess its current decommissioning liability, as it relates to ANO.
The analysis relies upon site-specific, technical information from an evaluation prepared in 2019,[1] updated to reflect current plant inventory, current assumptions pertaining to the operating life of the reactor, disposition of the nuclear plant and relevant industry experience in undertaking such projects. The costs are based on several key assumptions in areas of regulation, component characterization, high-level radioactive waste management, low-level radioactive waste disposal, performance uncertainties (contingency) and site restoration requirements.
The analysis is not a detailed engineering evaluation, but estimates prepared in advance of the detailed engineering required to carry out the decommissioning of the nuclear units. It may also not reflect the actual plan to decommission ANO; the plan may differ from the assumptions made in this analysis based on facts that exist at the time of decommissioning.
The 2019 plant inventory, the basis for the decontamination and dismantling requirements and cost, and the decommissioning waste streams, were reviewed for this analysis. There were no substantive changes made to the plant inventory (that would impact decommissioning), except for removal of the retired Engineering building.
The costs to decommission ANO for the alternatives evaluated are tabulated at the end of this section. Costs are reported in 2024 dollars and include monies anticipated to be spent for radiological remediation and operating license termination, spent fuel management, and site restoration activities.
A complete discussion of the assumptions relied upon in this analysis is provided in Section 3, along with schedules of annual expenditures for each scenario. A sequence of significant project activities is provided in Section 4 with a timeline for each scenario.
Detailed cost reports used to generate the summary tables contained within this document are provided in Appendices C and D.
1 Decommissioning Cost Analysis for the Arkansas Nuclear One, Units 1 and 2, Document E11-1763-001, Rev. 0, TLG Services, Inc., March 2019
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page viii of xx TLG Services, LLC Consistent with the 2019 analysis, the current cost estimates assume that the shutdown of the nuclear units is a scheduled and pre-planned event (e.g., there is no delay in transitioning the plant and workforce from operations or in obtaining regulatory relief from operating requirements). The estimates include the continued operation of the auxiliary buildings as interim wet fuel storage facilities for approximately five and one-half years after operations cease. During this time period, it is assumed that the spent fuel residing in the pools that cannot be transferred to the Department of Energy (DOE) will be transferred to an independent spent fuel storage installation (ISFSI) located on the site.
The ISFSI will remain operational until the DOE is able to complete the transfer of the fuel to a federal facility (e.g., a monitored retrievable storage facility).[2] DOE has breached its obligations to remove fuel from reactor sites, and has also failed to provide the plant owners with information about how it will ultimately perform. DOE officials have stated that DOE does not have an obligation to accept already-canistered fuel without an amendment to DOEs contracts with plant licensees to remove the fuel (the Standard Contract), but DOE has not explained what any such amendment would involve. Consequently, the plant owner has no information or expectations on how DOE will remove fuel from the site in the future. In the absence of information about how DOE will perform, and for purposes of this analysis only, it is assumed that DOE will accept already-canistered fuel (it is recognized that the canisters may not be licensed or licensable for transportation when DOE performs).
If this assumption is incorrect, it is assumed that DOE will have liability for costs incurred to transfer the fuel to DOE-supplied containers.
Alternatives and Regulations The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) provided general decommissioning requirements in a rule adopted on June 27, 1988.[3] In this rule, the NRC set forth technical and financial criteria for decommissioning licensed nuclear facilities. The regulations addressed planning needs, timing, funding methods, and environmental review requirements for decommissioning. The rule also defined three decommissioning alternatives as being acceptable to the NRC: DECON, SAFSTOR, and ENTOMB.
DECON is defined as "the alternative in which the equipment, structures, and portions of a facility and site containing radioactive contaminants are 2
Projected expenditures for spent fuel management identified in the cost analyses do not consider the outcome of the litigation with the DOE with regard to the delays incurred by Entergy in the timely removal of spent fuel from the site.

Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page ix of xx TLG Services, LLC removed or decontaminated to a level that permits the property to be released for unrestricted use shortly after cessation of operations."[4]
SAFSTOR is defined as "the alternative in which the nuclear facility is placed and maintained in a condition that allows the nuclear facility to be safely stored and subsequently decontaminated (deferred decontamination) to levels that permit release for unrestricted use."[5]
Decommissioning is required to be completed within 60 years, although longer time periods will be considered when necessary to protect public health and safety.
ENTOMB is defined as "the alternative in which radioactive contaminants are encased in a structurally long-lived material, such as concrete; the entombed structure is appropriately maintained and continued surveillance is carried out until the radioactive material decays to a level permitting unrestricted release of the property."[6] As with the SAFSTOR alternative, decommissioning is currently required to be completed within 60 years, although longer time periods will also be considered when necessary to protect public health and safety.
The 60-year restriction has limited the practicality for the ENTOMB alternative at commercial reactors that generate significant amounts of long-lived radioactive material. In 2017, the NRCs staff issued the regulatory basis for proposed new regulations on the decommissioning of commercial nuclear power reactors. In the regulatory basis, the NRC staff proposed removing any discussion of the ENTOMB option from existing guidance documents since the method is not deemed practically feasible for current U.S. power reactors, and the timeframe for decommissioning completion using the ENTOMB method is generally inconsistent with current regulations.[7] Additionally, the Arkansas Public Service Commission Settlement agreement associated with the 2019 DCE filing[8]
no longer requires the ENTOMB alternative to be considered for ANO 4

In 1996, the NRC published revisions to its general requirements for decommissioning nuclear power plants to clarify ambiguities and codify procedures and terminology as a means of enhancing efficiency and uniformity in the decommissioning process.[9] The amendments allow for greater public participation and better define the transition process from operations to decommissioning. Regulatory Guide 1.184, issued in July 2000, (as revised in October 2013), further described the methods and procedures that are acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing the requirements of the 1996 revised rule that relate to the initial activities and the major phases of the decommissioning process. The costs and schedules presented in this analysis follow the general guidance and sequence in the amended regulations. The format and content of the estimates is also consistent with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.202, issued in February 2005.[10]
In 2011, the NRC issued regulations to improve decommissioning planning and thereby reduce the likelihood that any current operating facility will become a legacy site.[11]
The regulations require licensees to report additional details in their decommissioning cost estimate, including a decommissioning estimate for the ISFSI. This estimate is provided in Appendix E.
Decommissioning Scenarios Two decommissioning scenarios were evaluated for the two ANO nuclear units. The scenarios selected are representative of alternatives currently available to the owner and are defined as follows:
- 1.
The first scenario assumes that the two units would be promptly decommissioned (DECON alternative) upon the expiration of the current operating licenses, i.e., 2034 and 2038 for Units 1 and 2, respectively.
- 2.
In the second scenario, the nuclear units are placed into safe-storage (SAFSTOR alternative) at the end of their current operating licenses.
Decommissioning is deferred to the maximum extent such that the licenses are 9

Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page xi of xx TLG Services, LLC terminated within the required 60-year period.
Methodology The methodology used to develop the estimates follows the basic approach originally presented in the cost estimating guidelines[12] developed by the Atomic Industrial Forum (now Nuclear Energy Institute). This reference describes a unit cost factor method for estimating decommissioning activity costs. The unit cost factors used in this analysis incorporate site-specific costs and the latest available information about worker productivity in decommissioning.
An activity duration critical path is used to determine the total decommissioning program schedule. This is required for calculating the carrying costs, which include program management, administration, field engineering, equipment rental, quality assurance, and security. This systematic approach for assembling decommissioning estimates ensures a high degree of confidence in the reliability of the resulting costs.
The estimates also reflect lessons learned from TLGs involvement in the Shippingport Station Decommissioning Project completed in 1989, as well as the decommissioning of the Cintichem reactor, hot cells and associated facilities, completed in 1997. In addition, the planning and engineering for the Rancho Seco, Trojan, Yankee Rowe, Big Rock Point, Maine Yankee, Humboldt Bay-3, Oyster Creek, Connecticut Yankee, Crystal River, Vermont Yankee, Fort Calhoun, Pilgrim, and Indian Point nuclear units have provided additional insight into the process, the regulatory aspects, and the technical challenges of decommissioning commercial nuclear units.
Contingency Consistent with cost estimating practice, contingencies are applied to the decontamination and dismantling costs developed as "specific provision for unforeseeable elements of cost within the defined project scope, particularly important where previous experience relating estimates and actual costs has shown that unforeseeable events which will increase costs are likely to occur.[13] The cost elements in the estimates are based on ideal conditions; therefore, the types of unforeseeable events that are almost certain to occur in decommissioning, based on industry experience, are addressed through a percentage contingency applied on a line-item basis. This contingency factor is a nearly universal element in all large-scale construction and demolition projects. It should be noted that contingency, as used in 12 T.S. LaGuardia et al., "Guidelines for Producing Commercial Nuclear Power Plant Decommissioning Cost Estimates," AIF/NESP-036, May 1986 13 Project and Cost Engineers Handbook, Second Edition, American Association of Cost Engineers, Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York, New York, p. 239.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page xii of xx TLG Services, LLC this analysis, does not account for price escalation and inflation in the cost of decommissioning over the remaining operating life of the station.
Contingency funds are expected to be fully expended throughout the program. As such, inclusion of contingency is necessary to provide assurance that sufficient funding will be available to accomplish the intended tasks.
Low-Level Radioactive Waste Management The contaminated and activated material generated in the decontamination and dismantling of a commercial nuclear reactor is generally classified as low-level radioactive waste, although not all of the material is suitable for shallow-land disposal.
With the passage of the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal Act in 1980 and its Amendments of 1985,[14] the states became ultimately responsible for the disposition of low-level radioactive waste generated within their own borders.
With the exception of Texas, no new compact facilities have been successfully sited, licensed, and constructed. The Texas Compact disposal facility is now operational and waste is being accepted from generators within the Compact by the operator, Waste Control Specialists (WCS). The facility is also able to accept limited volumes of non-Compact waste.
The various waste streams produced by the decommissioning process considered all options and services currently available to Entergy. The majority of the low-level radioactive waste designated for direct disposal (Class A[15]) can be sent to EnergySolutions facility in Clive, Utah. Therefore, disposal costs for Class A waste were based upon Entergys Life of Plant Agreement and other service agreements with EnergySolutions. This facility is not licensed to receive the higher activity portion (Classes B and C) of the decommissioning waste stream.
The WCS facility is able to receive the Class B and C waste. As such, for this analysis, Class B and C waste was assumed to be shipped to the WCS facility and disposal costs for the waste were based upon Entergys most current agreement with WCS.
The dismantling of the components residing closest to the reactor core generates radioactive waste that may be considered unsuitable for shallow-land disposal (i.e.,
low-level radioactive waste with concentrations of radionuclides that exceed the limits established by the NRC for Class C radioactive waste (GTCC)). The Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985 assigned the federal government 14 Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985, Public Law 99-240, January 15, 1986 15 Waste is classified in accordance with U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, Part 61.55
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page xiii of xx TLG Services, LLC the responsibility for the disposal of this material. The Act also stated that the beneficiaries of the activities resulting in the generation of such radioactive waste bear all reasonable costs of disposing of such waste. However, to date, the federal government has not identified a cost, if any, for GTCC disposal or a schedule for acceptance.
For purposes of this analysis only, the GTCC radioactive waste is assumed to be packaged and disposed of in a manner similar to high-level waste and at a cost equivalent to that envisioned for the spent fuel. The GTCC is packaged in the same canisters used for spent fuel and either stored on site or shipped directly to a federal facility as it is generated (depending upon the timing of the decommissioning and whether the spent fuel has already been removed from the site prior to the start of decommissioning).
A significant portion of the waste material generated during decommissioning may only be potentially contaminated by radioactive materials. This waste can be analyzed on site or shipped off site to licensed facilities for further analysis, for processing and/or for conditioning/recovery. Reduction in the volume of low-level radioactive waste requiring disposal in a licensed low-level radioactive waste disposal facility can be accomplished through a variety of methods, including analyses and surveys or decontamination to eliminate the portion of waste that does not require disposal as radioactive waste, compaction, incineration or metal melt. The estimates reflect the savings from waste recovery/volume reduction.
High-Level Radioactive Waste Management Congress passed the Nuclear Waste Policy Act (NWPA) in 1982, assigning the federal governments long-standing responsibility for disposal of the spent nuclear fuel created by the commercial nuclear generating plants to the DOE. The DOE was to begin accepting spent fuel by January 31, 1998; however, to date no progress in the removal of spent fuel from commercial generating sites has been made.
Completion of the decommissioning process is dependent upon the DOEs ability to remove spent fuel from the site in a timely manner. DOEs repository program assumes that spent fuel allocations will be accepted for disposal from the nations commercial nuclear plants, with limited exceptions, in the order (the queue) in which it was discharged from the reactor.[16] Entergys current spent fuel 16 In 2008, the DOE issued a report to Congress in which it concluded that it did not have authority, under present law, to accept spent nuclear fuel for interim storage from decommissioned commercial nuclear power reactor sites. However, the Blue Ribbon Commission, in its final report, noted that:
[A]ccepting spent fuel according to the OFF [Oldest Fuel First] priority ranking instead of giving priority to shutdown reactor sites could greatly reduce the cost savings that could be achieved through consolidated storage if priority could be given to accepting spent fuel from
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page xiv of xx TLG Services, LLC management plan for the ANO spent fuel is based in general upon: 1) a 2035 start date for DOE initiating transfer of commercial spent fuel from the industry to a federal facility (not necessarily a final repository), and 2) an assumed schedule for spent fuel receipt by the DOE for the ANO fuel. The DOEs generator allocation/receipt schedules are based upon the oldest fuel receiving the highest priority. Assuming a maximum rate of transfer of 3,000 metric tons of uranium (MTU)/year,[17] the removal of spent fuel from the site could be completed in 2083. Different DOE acceptance schedules may result in different completion dates.
Today, the country is at an impasse on high-level waste disposal, despite DOEs submittal of its License Application for a geologic repository to the NRC in 2008. The Obama administration eliminated the budget for the repository program while promising to conduct a comprehensive review of policies for managing the back end of the nuclear fuel cycle and make recommendations for a new plan.[18] Towards this goal, the Obama administration appointed a Blue Ribbon Commission on Americas Nuclear Future (Blue Ribbon Commission) to make recommendations for a new plan for nuclear waste disposal. The Blue Ribbon Commissions charter included a requirement that it consider [o]ptions for safe storage of used nuclear fuel while final disposition pathways are selected and deployed.[19]
On January 26, 2012, the Blue Ribbon Commission issued its Report to the Secretary of Energy containing a number of recommendations on nuclear waste disposal. Two of the recommendations that may impact decommissioning planning are:
- [T]he United States [should] establish a program that leads to the timely development of one or more consolidated storage facilities[20]
- [T]he United States should undertake an integrated nuclear waste management program that leads to the timely development of one or more shutdown reactor sites before accepting fuel from still-operating plants.. The magnitude of the cost savings that could be achieved by giving priority to shutdown sites appears to be large enough (i.e., in the billions of dollars) to warrant DOE exercising its right under the Standard Contract to move this fuel first. For planning purposes only, this estimate does not assume that ANO, as permanently shutdown units, will receive priority; the fuel removal schedule assumed in this estimate is based upon DOE acceptance of fuel according to the Oldest Fuel First priority ranking. The plant owner will seek the most expeditious means of removing fuel from the site when DOE commences performance.

In January 2013, the DOE issued the Strategy for the Management and Disposal of Used Nuclear Fuel and High-Level Radioactive Waste, in response to the recommendations made by the Blue Ribbon Commission and as a framework for moving toward a sustainable program to deploy an integrated system capable of transporting, storing, and disposing of used nuclear fuel...[22]
With the appropriate authorizations from Congress, the Administration currently plans to implement a program over the next 10 years that:
- Sites, designs and licenses, constructs and begins operations of a pilot interim storage facility by 2021 with an initial focus on accepting used nuclear fuel from shut-down reactor sites;
- Advances toward the siting and licensing of a larger interim storage facility to be available by 2025 that will have sufficient capacity to provide flexibility in the waste management system and allows for acceptance of enough used nuclear fuel to reduce expected government liabilities; and
- Makes demonstrable progress on the siting and characterization of repository sites to facilitate the availability of a geologic repository by 2048.[23]
The NRCs review of DOEs license application to construct a geologic repository at Yucca Mountain was suspended in 2011 when the Obama administration significantly reduced the budget for completing that work. However, the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit issued a writ of mandamus (in August 2013)[24] ordering NRC to comply with federal law and resume its review of DOE's Yucca Mountain repository license application to the extent allowed by previously appropriated funding for the review. That review is now complete with the publication of the five-volume safety evaluation report. A supplement to DOEs environmental impact statement and adjudicatory hearing on the contentions filed by interested parties must be completed before a licensing decision can be made.
Although the DOE proposed it would start fuel acceptance in 2025, no progress has been made in the repository program since DOEs 2013 strategy was issued except for the 21 Ibid., p.27 22 Strategy for the Management and Disposal of Used Nuclear Fuel and High-Level Radioactive Waste, U.S. DOE, January 11, 2013 23 Ibid., p.2 24 U.S. Court of Appeals for the District Of Columbia Circuit, In Re: Aiken County, et al, Aug. 2013

Because of this continued delay, this estimate revises the assumed start date for DOE fuel acceptance from 2030, used in the 2019 evaluation, to 2035.
Holtec International submitted a license application to the NRC on March 30, 2017 for a consolidated interim spent fuel storage facility in southeast New Mexico called HI-STORE CIS (Consolidated Interim Storage) under the provisions of 10 CFR Part
- 72. The application was approved by the NRC on May 9, 2023.
Waste Control Specialists (WCS) submitted an application to the NRC on April 28, 2016, to construct and operate a Consolidated Interim Storage Facility (CISF) at its West Texas facility. On April 18, 2017, WCS requested that the NRC temporarily suspend all safety and environmental review activities, as well as public participation activities associated with WCSs license application. In March 2018, WCS and Orano USA, announced their intent to form a joint venture to license the facility. On September 17, 2021, the NRC approved the joint ventures original CISF license application. At this time, neither storage facility is in service and therefore has not been considered in this estimate.
On May 10, 2018, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 3053, the Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act of 2018. Proposed to amend the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, the legislation, if approved by the Senate and signed by the President, would provide the DOE the authority to site, construct, and operate one or more Monitored Retrieval Storage (MRS) facilities while a permanent repository is licensed and constructed and/or to enter into an MRS agreement with a non-Federal entity for temporary storage. At the time of this estimate no further action has been taken on this legislation.
The NRC requires that licensees establish a program to manage and provide funding for the caretaking of all irradiated fuel at the reactor site until title of the fuel is transferred to the DOE. [25] Interim storage of the fuel, until the DOE has completed the transfer, will be in the auxiliary buildings storage pools as well as at an on-site ISFSI.
An ISFSI, operated under a Part 50 General License (in accordance with 10 CFR 72, Subpart K[26]), has been constructed to support continued plant operations. The facility is assumed to be available to support future decommissioning operations. As such, the fuel that cannot be transferred directly to the DOE from the wet pools is packaged for interim storage at the ISFSI. Once the auxiliary buildings storage pools are emptied, 25 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, Part 50 - Domestic Licensing of Production and Utilization Facilities, Subpart 54 (bb), Conditions of Licenses 26 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, Part 72, Subpart K, General License for Storage of Spent Fuel at Power Reactor Sites.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page xvii of xx TLG Services, LLC the buildings can be either decontaminated and dismantled or prepared for long term storage.
Entergys position is that the DOE has a contractual obligation to accept the spent fuel earlier than the projections set out above consistent with its contract commitments. No assumption made in this study should be interpreted to be inconsistent with this claim.
However, at this time, including the cost of storing spent fuel in this study is the most reasonable approach because it ensures the availability of sufficient decommissioning funds at the end of the stations life if, contrary to its contractual obligation, the DOE has not performed earlier.
Site Restoration The efficient removal of the contaminated materials at the site may result in damage to many of the site structures. Blasting, coring, drilling, and the other decontamination activities can substantially damage power block structures, potentially weakening the footings and structural supports. It is unreasonable to anticipate that these structures would be repaired and preserved after the radiological contamination is removed. The cost to dismantle site structures with a work force already mobilized is more efficient and less costly than if the process is deferred.
Consequently, this study assumes that non-essential site structures addressed by this analysis are removed, once remediation is complete, to a nominal depth of three feet below the local grade level wherever possible. The site is then graded and stabilized.
Summary The estimates to decommission ANO assume the removal of all contaminated and activated plant components and structural materials such that the owner may then have unrestricted use of the site with no further requirements for an operating license. Low-level radioactive waste, other than GTCC waste, is sent to a commercial processor for treatment/conditioning or to a controlled disposal facility.
Decommissioning is accomplished within the 60-year period required by current NRC regulations. In the interim, the spent fuel remains in storage at the site until such time that the transfer to a DOE facility is complete.
The alternatives evaluated in this analysis are described in Section 2. The assumptions are presented in Section 3, along with schedules of annual expenditures. The major cost contributors are identified in Section 6, with detailed activity costs, waste volumes, and associated manpower requirements delineated in Appendices C and D. The major cost components are also identified in the cost summary provided at the end of this section.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Page xviii of xx TLG Services, LLC The cost elements in the estimates for the DECON and SAFSTOR alternatives are assigned to one of three subcategories: NRC License Termination (radiological remediation), Spent Fuel Management, and Site Restoration. The subcategory NRC License Termination is used to accumulate costs that are consistent with decommissioning as defined by the NRC in its financial assurance regulations (i.e.,
10 CFR §50.75). The cost reported for this subcategory is generally sufficient to terminate the units operating license, recognizing that there may be some additional cost impact from spent fuel management. The License Termination cost subcategory also includes costs to decommission the ISFSI (as required by 10 CFR §72.30). Section 3.5.1 provides the basis for the ISFSI decommissioning cost delineated in Appendix E.
The Spent Fuel Management subcategory contains costs associated with the containerization and transfer of spent fuel from the wet storage pools to the DOE or to the ISFSI for interim storage, as well as the transfer of the spent fuel in storage at the ISFSI to the DOE. Costs are included for the operation of the storage pools for approximately five and one-half years following shutdown and the management of the ISFSI until such time that the transfer is complete. It does not include any spent fuel management expenses incurred prior to the cessation of plant operations, nor does it include any costs related to the final disposal of the spent fuel.
Site Restoration is used to capture costs associated with the dismantling and demolition of buildings and facilities demonstrated to be free from contamination.
This includes structures never exposed to radioactive materials, as well as those facilities that have been decontaminated to appropriate levels. Structures are removed to a depth of three feet and backfilled to conform to local grade.
It should be noted that the costs assigned to these subcategories are allocations.
Delegation of cost elements is for the purposes of comparison (e.g., with NRC financial guidelines) or to permit specific financial treatment (e.g., Asset Retirement Obligation determinations). In reality, there can be considerable interaction between the activities in the three subcategories. For example, an owner may decide to remove non-contaminated structures early in the project to improve access to highly contaminated facilities or plant components. In these instances, the non-contaminated removal costs could be reassigned from Site Restoration to an NRC License Termination support activity. However, in general, the allocations represent a reasonable accounting of those costs that can be expected to be incurred for the specific subcomponents of the total estimated program cost, if executed as described.
As noted within this document, the estimates were developed and costs are presented in 2024 dollars. As such, the estimates do not reflect the escalation of costs (due to inflationary and market forces) over the remaining operating life of the plant or during the decommissioning period.

- 1. INTRODUCTION This report presents estimates of the cost to decommission Arkansas Nuclear One (ANO) for the selected decommissioning alternatives following the scheduled and permanent cessation of plant operations. The estimates are designed to provide the owner, Entergy Arkansas LLC (EAL), with the information to assess its current decommissioning liability, as it relates to ANO.
The analysis relies upon site-specific, technical information from an earlier evaluation prepared in 2019,[1]* updated to reflect current plant inventory, current assumptions pertaining to the disposition of the nuclear plant and relevant industry experience in undertaking such projects. The costs are based on several key assumptions in areas of regulation, component characterization, high-level radioactive waste management, low-level radioactive waste disposal, performance uncertainties (contingency) and site restoration requirements.
The analysis is not a detailed engineering evaluation, but rather estimates prepared in advance of the detailed engineering required to carry out the decommissioning of the nuclear units. It may also not reflect the actual plan to decommission ANO; the plan may differ from the assumptions made in this analysis based on facts that exist at the time of decommissioning.
The 2019 plant inventory, the basis for the decontamination and dismantling requirements and cost, and the decommissioning waste streams, were reviewed for this analysis. There were no substantive changes made to the plant inventory (that would impact decommissioning), except for removal of the retired Engineering building.
1.1 OBJECTIVES OF STUDY The objectives of this study are to prepare comprehensive estimates of the costs to decommission ANO, to provide a sequence or schedule for the associated activities, and to develop waste stream projections from the decontamination and dismantling activities.
The original operating license for ANO-1 was issued on May 21, 1974, and under the terms of its extended operating license the unit could operate through May 20, 2034. The original operating license for ANO-2 was issued on September 1, 1978 and under the terms of its extended operating license the unit could operate through July 17, 2038.

Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 2 of 11 TLG Services, LLC 1.2 SITE DESCRIPTION ANO is located in Pope County, approximately six miles west-northwest of Russellville and 57 miles from Little Rock, Arkansas. The plant site is located on a peninsula formed by the Dardanelle Reservoir on the Arkansas River. The two nuclear units located at the site are both pressurized water reactors.
ANO-1 The Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) was supplied by the Babcock &
Wilcox Company and licensed to operate at core power levels up to 2,568 megawatts-thermal (MWt). The steam generators were subsequently replaced in the fall of 2005 with Framatome units. The unit has a maximum dependable capacity of 836 MWe. The original steam generators and reactor closure head remain in storage at the site.
The Reactor Coolant System (RCS) consists of the reactor vessel, two vertical once-through steam generators, four shaft-sealed reactor coolant pumps, one electrically heated pressurizer, and interconnecting piping. The system is arranged in two heat transport loops, each with two pumps and one steam generator. The reactor coolant is transported through piping connecting the reactor vessel to the steam generators and flows downward through the steam generator tubes transferring heat to the steam and water on the shell side of the steam generator.
The RCS, along with portions of the auxiliary systems and engineered safeguard systems, is housed within the reactor building or "containment structure." The reactor building is a fully continuous reinforced concrete structure in the shape of a cylinder on a flat foundation slab with a shallow domed roof. The cylindrical portion is pre-stressed by a post-tensioning system consisting of horizontal and vertical tendons. The foundation slab is conventionally reinforced with high-strength reinforcing steel. A welded steel liner is attached to the inside face of the concrete shell to ensure a high degree of leak tightness. The base liner has been installed on top of the structural slab and is covered with concrete. The structure provides shielding for both normal and accident conditions.
Heat produced in the reactor is converted to electrical energy by the steam and power conversion system. A turbine-generator system converts the thermal energy of steam produced in the steam generators into mechanical shaft power and then into electrical energy via the turbine generator. The turbine is a tandem compound, 3-cylinder, 4-flow, impulse reaction, condensing, 1,800 rpm unit. It has external moisture separation and two stage steam reheaters between the one high-pressure and the two low-pressure cylinders.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 3 of 11 TLG Services, LLC Heat rejected in the main condensers is removed by the circulating water system. Cooling water is drawn from and returned to the Dardanelle Reservoir.
ANO-2 Combustion Engineering originally supplied the Nuclear Steam Supply System (NSSS) for ANO-2. The steam generators were subsequently replaced in the fall of 2000 with Westinghouse units. The system was licensed for an initial core thermal output of 2815 MWt and an uprate output of 3026 MWt. The unit has a maximum dependable capacity of 998 MWe. The original steam generators remain in storage at the site.
The RCS is arranged as two closed loops connected in parallel to the reactor vessel. Each loop consists of one steam generator and two pumps. An electrically heated pressurizer is connected to one of the loops and a safety injection line is connected to each of the four inlet legs. The two steam generators are vertical shell and U-tube units. The RCS is housed within a containment structure similar in design to that of ANO-1.
The main turbine at ANO-2 is an 1,800 rpm, tandem compound, 4-flow, impulse reaction, condensing unit, having one high pressure and two identical low-pressure casings. Combination moisture separator reheaters are employed to dry and superheat the steam between the high and low-pressure turbines. The auxiliaries include deaerating surface condensers, condenser vacuum pumps, cooling tower, turbine driven main feedwater pumps, motor driven condensate pumps, and seven stages of feedwater heaters. The steam is subsequently condensed and returned to the steam generators as heated feedwater.
The heat rejected to the main condenser is removed by the closed loop circulating water system utilizing a natural-draft cooling tower. The counterflow type, hyperbolic, natural draft cooling tower cools the heated water before returning it to the main condenser.
1.3 REGULATORY GUIDANCE The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC or Commission) provided initial decommissioning requirements in its rule "General Requirements for Decommissioning Nuclear Facilities," issued in June 1988.[2] This rule set forth financial criteria for decommissioning licensed nuclear power facilities. The regulation addressed decommissioning planning needs, timing, funding methods, and environmental review requirements. The intent of the rule was to ensure that decommissioning would be accomplished in a safe and timely manner and that adequate funds would be available for this purpose.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 4 of 11 TLG Services, LLC Subsequent to the rule, the NRC issued Regulatory Guide 1.159, Assuring the Availability of Funds for Decommissioning Nuclear Reactors,[3] which provided additional guidance to the licensees of nuclear facilities on the financial methods acceptable to the NRC staff for complying with the requirements of the rule. The regulatory guide addressed the funding requirements and provided guidance on the content and form of the financial assurance mechanisms indicated in the rule.
The rule defined three decommissioning alternatives as being acceptable to the NRC: DECON, SAFSTOR, and ENTOMB. The DECON alternative assumes that any contaminated or activated portion of the plants systems, structures and facilities are removed or decontaminated to levels that permit the site to be released for unrestricted use shortly after the cessation of plant operations, while the SAFSTOR and ENTOMB alternatives defer the process.
The rule also placed limits on the time allowed to complete the decommissioning process. For all alternatives, the process is restricted in overall duration to 60 years, unless it can be shown that a longer duration is necessary to protect public health and safety. At the conclusion of a 60-year dormancy period (or longer if the NRC approves such a case), the site would still require significant remediation to meet the unrestricted release limits for license termination.
The 60-year restriction has limited the practicality for the ENTOMB alternative at commercial reactors that generate significant amounts of long-lived radioactive material. In 2017, the NRCs staff issued the regulatory basis for proposed new regulations on the decommissioning of commercial nuclear power reactors. In the regulatory basis, the NRC staff proposed removing any discussion of the ENTOMB option from existing guidance documents since the method is not deemed practically feasible for current U.S. power reactors, and the timeframe for decommissioning completion using the ENTOMB method is generally inconsistent with current regulations.[4] Additionally, the Arkansas Public Service Commission Settlement agreement associated with the 2019 DCE filing no longer requires the ENTOMB alternative to be considered in ANO decommissioning cost estimates and therefore is not included in this analysis.
In 1996, the NRC published revisions to the general requirements for decommissioning nuclear power plants.[5] When the decommissioning regulations were adopted in 1988, it was assumed that the majority of licensees would decommission at the end of the facilitys operating licensed life. Since that time, several licensees permanently and prematurely ceased operations.
Exemptions from certain operating requirements were required once the reactor was defueled to facilitate the decommissioning. Each case was handled individually, without clearly defined generic requirements. The NRC amended
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 5 of 11 TLG Services, LLC the decommissioning regulations in 1996 to clarify ambiguities and codify procedures and terminology as a means of enhancing efficiency and uniformity in the decommissioning process. The amendments allow for greater public participation and better define the transition process from operations to decommissioning.
Under the revised regulations, licensees will submit written certification to the NRC within 30 days after the decision to cease operations. Certification will also be required once the fuel is permanently removed from the reactor vessel.
Submittal of these notices, along with related changes to Technical Specifications, entitle the licensee to a fee reduction and eliminate the obligation to follow certain requirements needed only during operation of the reactor.
Within two years of submitting notice of permanent cessation of operations, the licensee is required to submit a Post-Shutdown Decommissioning Activities Report (PSDAR) to the NRC.
The PSDAR describes the planned decommissioning activities, the associated sequence and schedule, and an estimate of expected costs. Prior to completing decommissioning, the licensee is required to submit an application to the NRC to terminate the license, which includes a license termination plan (LTP).
In 2011, the NRC issued regulations to improve decommissioning planning and thereby reduce the likelihood that any current operating facility will become a legacy site.[6] The regulations require licensees to report additional details in their decommissioning cost estimate including a decommissioning estimate for the ISFSI. This estimate is provided in Appendix E.
1.3.1 High-Level Radioactive Waste Management Congress passed the Nuclear Waste Policy Act[7] (NWPA) in 1982, assigning the federal governments long-standing responsibility for disposal of the spent nuclear fuel created by the commercial nuclear generating plants to the DOE. It was to begin accepting spent fuel by January 31, 1998; however, to date no progress in the removal of spent fuel from commercial generating sites has been made.
Completion of the decommissioning process is dependent upon the DOEs ability to remove spent fuel from the site in a timely manner. DOEs repository program assumes that spent fuel allocations will be accepted for disposal from the nations commercial nuclear plants, with limited exceptions, in the order (the queue) in which it was discharged from the reactor. Entergys current spent fuel management plan for the ANO spent fuel is based in general upon: 1) a 2035 start date for DOE initiating transfer of commercial spent fuel from the industry to a federal facility
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 6 of 11 TLG Services, LLC (not necessarily a final repository), and 2) an assumed schedule for spent fuel receipt by the DOE for the ANO fuel. The DOEs generator allocation/receipt schedules are based upon the oldest fuel receiving the highest priority. Assuming a maximum rate of transfer of 3,000 metric tons of uranium (MTU)/year, as reflected in DOEs latest Acceptance Priority Ranking and Annual Capacity Report dated June 2004 (DOE/RW-0567),[8] the removal of spent fuel from the site is completed in 2083. Different DOE acceptance schedules may result in different completion dates.
Today, the country is at an impasse on high-level waste disposal, even with the License Application for a geologic repository submitted by the DOE to the NRC in 2008. The Obama administration cut the budget for the repository program while promising to conduct a comprehensive review of policies for managing the back end of the nuclear fuel cycle and make recommendations for a new plan. Towards this goal, the Obama administration appointed a Blue Ribbon Commission on Americas Nuclear Future (Blue Ribbon Commission) to make recommendations for a new plan for nuclear waste disposal. The Blue Ribbon Commissions charter includes a requirement that it consider
[o]ptions for safe storage of used nuclear fuel while final disposition pathways are selected and deployed.[9]
On January 26, 2012, the Blue Ribbon Commission issued its Report to the Secretary of Energy containing a number of recommendations on nuclear waste disposal. Two of the recommendations that may impact decommissioning planning are:
- [T]he United States [should] establish a program that leads to the timely development of one or more consolidated storage facilities
- [T]he United States should undertake an integrated nuclear waste management program that leads to the timely development of one or more permanent deep geological facilities for the safe disposal of spent fuel and high-level nuclear waste.[10]
In January 2013, the DOE issued the Strategy for the Management and Disposal of Used Nuclear Fuel and High-Level Radioactive Waste, in response to the recommendations made by the Blue Ribbon Commission and as a framework for moving toward a sustainable program to deploy an integrated system capable of transporting, storing, and disposing of used nuclear fuel...[11]
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 7 of 11 TLG Services, LLC With the appropriate authorizations from Congress, the Administration currently plans to implement a program over the next 10 years that:
- Sites, designs and licenses, constructs and begins operations of a pilot interim storage facility by 2021 with an initial focus on accepting used nuclear fuel from shut-down reactor sites;
- Advances toward the siting and licensing of a larger interim storage facility to be available by 2025 that will have sufficient capacity to provide flexibility in the waste management system and allows for acceptance of enough used nuclear fuel to reduce expected government liabilities; and
- Makes demonstrable progress on the siting and characterization of repository sites to facilitate the availability of a geologic repository by 2048.
The NRCs review of DOEs license application to construct a geologic repository at Yucca Mountain was suspended in 2011 when the Obama administration significantly reduced the budget for completing that work.
However, the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit issued a writ of mandamus (in August 2013)[12] ordering NRC to comply with federal law and resume its review of DOE's Yucca Mountain repository license application to the extent allowed by previously appropriated funding for the review. That review is now complete with the publication of the five-volume safety evaluation report. A supplement to DOEs environmental impact statement and adjudicatory hearing on the contentions filed by interested parties must be completed before a licensing decision can be made. Although the DOE proposed it would start fuel acceptance in 2025, no progress has been made in the repository program since DOEs 2013 strategy was issued except for the completion of the Yucca Mountain safety evaluation report. Because of this continued delay, this estimate revises the assumed start date for DOE fuel acceptance from 2030, as used in the 2019 evaluation, to 2035.
Holtec International submitted a license application to the NRC on March 30, 2017 for a consolidated interim spent fuel storage facility in southeast New Mexico called HI-STORE CIS (Consolidated Interim Storage) under the provisions of 10 CFR Part 72. The application was approved by the NRC on May 9, 2023.
Waste Control Specialists (WCS) submitted an application to the NRC on April 28, 2016, to construct and operate a Consolidated Interim Storage Facility (CISF) at its West Texas facility. On April 18, 2017, WCS
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 8 of 11 TLG Services, LLC requested that the NRC temporarily suspend all safety and environmental review activities, as well as public participation activities associated with WCSs license application. In March 2018, WCS and Orano USA, announced their intent to form a joint venture to license the facility. On September 17, 2021, the NRC approved the joint ventures original CISF license application. At this time, neither storage facility is in service and therefore has not been considered in this estimate.
On May 10, 2018, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 3053, the Nuclear Waste Policy Amendments Act of 2018. Proposed to amend the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, the legislation, if approved by the Senate and signed by the President, would provide the DOE the authority to site, construct, and operate one or more Monitored Retrieval Storage (MRS) facilities while a permanent repository is licensed and constructed and/or to enter into an MRS agreement with a non-Federal entity for temporary storage. At the time of this estimate, no further action has been taken on this legislation.
The NRC requires that licensees establish a program to manage and provide funding for the caretaking of all irradiated fuel at the reactor site until title of the fuel is transferred to the DOE.[13] Interim storage of the fuel, until the DOE has completed the transfer, will be in the auxiliary buildings spent fuel storage pools as well as at an on-site ISFSI. DOE has breached its obligations to remove fuel from reactor sites, and has also failed to provide the plant owner with information about how it will ultimately perform. DOE officials have stated that DOE does not have an obligation to accept already-canistered fuel without an amendment to DOEs contracts with plant licensees to remove the fuel (the Standard Contract), but DOE has not explained what any such amendment would involve. Consequently, the plant owner has no information or expectations on how DOE will remove fuel from the site in the future. In the absence of information about how DOE will perform, and for purposes of this analysis only, it is assumed that DOE will accept already-canistered fuel (it is recognized that the canisters may not be licensed or licensable for transportation when DOE performs). If this assumption is incorrect, it is assumed that DOE will have liability for costs incurred to transfer the fuel to DOE-supplied containers.
An ISFSI, operated under a Part 50 General License (in accordance with 10 CFR 72, Subpart K[14]), has been constructed to support continued plant operations. The facility is assumed to be available to support future decommissioning operations. As such, the fuel that cannot be transferred directly to the DOE from the wet pools is packaged for interim storage at
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 9 of 11 TLG Services, LLC the ISFSI. Once the auxiliary buildings spent fuel storage pools are emptied, the buildings can be either decontaminated and dismantled or prepared for long-term storage.
Entergys position is that the DOE has a contractual obligation to accept ANOs fuel earlier than the projections set out above consistent with its contract commitments. No assumption made in this study should be interpreted to be inconsistent with this claim. However, at this time, including the cost of storing spent fuel in this study is the most reasonable approach because it ensures the availability of sufficient decommissioning funds at the end of the stations life if, contrary to its contractual obligation, the DOE has not performed earlier.
1.3.2 Low-Level Radioactive Waste Management The contaminated and activated material generated in the decontamination and dismantling of a commercial nuclear reactor is classified as low-level (radioactive) waste, although not all of the material is suitable for shallow-land disposal. With the passage of the Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Act in 1980,[15] and its Amendments of 1985,[16]
the states became ultimately responsible for the disposition of low-level radioactive waste generated within their own borders.
With the exception of Texas, no new compact facilities have been successfully sited, licensed, and constructed. The Texas Compact disposal facility is now operational and waste is being accepted from generators within the Compact by the operator, Waste Control Specialists (WCS). The facility is also able to accept limited volumes of non-Compact waste.
Disposition of the various waste streams produced by the decommissioning process considered all options and services currently available to Entergy. The majority of the low-level radioactive waste designated for direct disposal (Class A[17]) can be sent to EnergySolutions facility in Clive, Utah. Therefore, disposal costs for Class A waste were based upon Entergys Life of Plant Agreement and other service agreements with EnergySolutions. This facility is not licensed to receive the higher activity portion (Classes B and C) of the decommissioning waste stream.
The WCS facility is able to receive the Class B and C waste. As such, for this analysis, Class B and C waste was assumed to be shipped to the WCS facility and disposal costs for the waste were based upon Entergys current agreement with WCS.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 10 of 11 TLG Services, LLC The dismantling of the components residing closest to the reactor core generates radioactive waste that may be considered unsuitable for shallow-land disposal (i.e.,
low-level radioactive waste with concentrations of radionuclides that exceed the limits established by the NRC for Class C radioactive waste (GTCC)). The Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985 assigned the federal government the responsibility for the disposal of this material. The Act also stated that the beneficiaries of the activities resulting in the generation of such radioactive waste bear all reasonable costs of disposing of such waste.
However, to date, the federal government has not identified a cost, if any, for GTCC disposal or a schedule for acceptance.
For purposes of this analysis only, the GTCC radioactive waste is assumed to be packaged and disposed of in a manner similar to high-level waste and at a cost equivalent to that envisioned for the spent fuel. The GTCC is packaged in the same canisters used for spent fuel and either stored on site or shipped directly to a federal facility as it is generated (depending upon the timing of the decommissioning and whether the spent fuel has already been removed from the site prior to the start of decommissioning).
A significant portion of the waste material generated during decommissioning may only be potentially contaminated by radioactive materials. This waste can be analyzed on site or shipped off site to licensed facilities for further analysis, for processing and/or for conditioning/recovery. Reduction in the volume of low-level radioactive waste requiring disposal in a licensed low-level radioactive waste disposal facility can be accomplished through a variety of methods, including analyses and surveys or decontamination to eliminate the portion of waste that does not require disposal as radioactive waste, compaction, incineration or metal melt. The estimates reflect the savings from waste recovery/volume reduction.
1.3.3 Radiological Criteria for License Termination In 1997, the NRC published Subpart E, Radiological Criteria for License Termination,[18] amending 10 CFR Part 20. This subpart provides radiological criteria for releasing a facility for unrestricted use. The regulation states that the site can be released for unrestricted use if radioactivity levels are such that the average member of a critical group would not receive a Total Effective Dose Equivalent (TEDE) in excess of 25 millirem per year, and provided that residual radioactivity has been reduced to levels that are As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA).
The decommissioning estimates assume that the ANO site will be
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 1, Page 11 of 11 TLG Services, LLC remediated to a residual level consistent with the NRC-prescribed level.
It should be noted that the NRC and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) differ on the amount of residual radioactivity considered acceptable in site remediation. The EPA has two limits that apply to radioactive materials. An EPA limit of 15 millirem per year is derived from criteria established by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA or Superfund).[19] An additional and separate limit of 4 millirem per year, as defined in 40 CFR
§141.66, is applied to drinking water.[20]
On October 9, 2002, the NRC signed an agreement with the EPA on the radiological decommissioning and decontamination of NRC-licensed sites.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)[21] provides that EPA will defer exercise of authority under CERCLA for the majority of facilities decommissioned under NRC authority. The MOU also includes provisions for NRC and EPA consultation for certain sites when, at the time of license termination, (1) groundwater contamination exceeds EPA-permitted levels; (2) NRC contemplates restricted release of the site; and/or (3) residual radioactive soil concentrations exceed levels defined in the MOU.
The MOU does not impose any new requirements on NRC licensees and should reduce the involvement of the EPA with NRC licensees who are decommissioning. Most sites are expected to meet the NRC criteria for unrestricted use, and the NRC believes that only a few sites will have groundwater or soil contamination in excess of the levels specified in the MOU that trigger consultation with the EPA. However, if there are other hazardous materials on the site, the EPA may be involved in the cleanup.
As such, the possibility of dual regulation remains for certain licensees.
The present study does not include any costs for this occurrence.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 1 of 12 TLG Services, LLC
- 2. DECOMMISSIONING ALTERNATIVES Detailed cost estimates were developed to decommission ANO based upon two of the NRCs three decommissioning alternatives.
Two decommissioning scenarios were evaluated for the two ANO nuclear units. The scenarios selected are representative of alternatives available to the owner and are defined as follows:
- 1.
The first scenario assumes that the two units would be promptly decommissioned (DECON alternative) upon the expiration of the current operating licenses, i.e., 2034 and 2038 for Units 1 and 2, respectively.
- 2.
In the second scenario, the nuclear units are placed into safe-storage (SAFSTOR alternative) at the end of their current operating licenses.
Decommissioning is deferred to the maximum extent such that the licenses are terminated within the required 60-year period.
The following sections describe the basic activities associated with each alternative.
Although detailed procedures for each activity identified are not provided, and the actual sequence of work may vary, the activity descriptions provide a basis not only for estimating but also for the expected scope of work, i.e., engineering and planning at the time of decommissioning.
The conceptual approach that the NRC has described in its regulations divides decommissioning into three phases. The initial phase commences with the effective date of permanent cessation of operations and involves the transition of both plant and licensee from reactor operations (i.e., power production) to facility de-activation and closure. During the first phase, notification is to be provided to the NRC certifying the permanent cessation of operations and the removal of fuel from the reactor vessel. The licensee is then prohibited from reactor operation. The second phase encompasses activities during the storage period or during major decommissioning activities, or a combination of the two. The third phase pertains to the activities involved in license termination. The decommissioning estimates developed for ANO are also divided into phases or periods; however, demarcation of the phases is based upon major milestones within the project or significant changes in the projected expenditures.
2.1 DECON The DECON alternative, as defined by the NRC, is "the alternative in which the equipment, structures, and portions of a facility and site containing radioactive
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 2 of 12 TLG Services, LLC contaminants are removed or decontaminated to a level that permits the property to be released for unrestricted use shortly after cessation of operations."
This study does not address the cost to dispose of the spent fuel residing at the site; such costs are funded through a surcharge on electrical generation.
However, the study does estimate the costs incurred with the interim on-site storage of the fuel pending shipment by the DOE to an off-site disposal facility.
2.1.1 Period 1 - Preparations In anticipation of the cessation of plant operations, detailed preparations are undertaken to provide a smooth transition from plant operations to site decommissioning. Through implementation of a staffing transition plan, the organization required to manage the intended decommissioning activities is assembled from available plant staff and outside resources.
Preparations include the planning for permanent defueling of the reactor, revision of technical specifications applicable to the operating conditions and requirements, a characterization of the facility and major components, and the development of the PSDAR.
Engineering and Planning The PSDAR, required prior to or within two years of permanent cessation of operations, provides a description of the licensees planned decommissioning activities, a timetable, a site-specific decommissioning cost estimate, and the associated financial requirements of the intended decommissioning program. Upon receipt of the PSDAR, the NRC will make the document available to the public for comment in a local hearing to be held in the vicinity of the reactor site. Ninety days following submittal and NRC receipt of the PSDAR, the licensee may begin to perform major decommissioning activities under a modified 10 CFR
§50.59 procedure (10 CFR §50.59 establishes the conditions under which licensees may make changes to the facility or procedures and conduct test or experiments without prior NRC approval). Major activities are defined as any activity that results in permanent removal of major radioactive components, permanently modifies the structure of the containment, or results in dismantling components (for shipment) containing GTCC, as defined by 10 CFR §61.55. Major components are further defined as comprising the reactor vessel and internals, large bore reactor coolant system piping, and other large components that are radioactive. The NRC includes the following additional criteria for use of the §50.59 process in decommissioning. The proposed activity must not:
- foreclose release of the site for possible unrestricted use,
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 3 of 12 TLG Services, LLC
- significantly increase decommissioning costs,
- cause any significant environmental impact, or
- violate the terms of the licensees existing license.
Existing operational technical specifications are reviewed and modified to reflect plant conditions and the safety concerns associated with permanent cessation of operations. The environmental impact associated with the planned decommissioning activities is also considered. Typically, a licensee will not be allowed to proceed if the consequences of a particular decommissioning activity are greater than that bounded by previously evaluated environmental assessments or impact statements. In this instance, the licensee would have to submit a license amendment for the specific activity and update the environmental report.
The decommissioning program outlined in the PSDAR will be designed to accomplish the required tasks within the ALARA guidelines (as defined in 10 CFR Part 20) for protection of personnel from exposure to radiation hazards. It will also address the continued protection of the health and safety of the public and the environment during the dismantling activity.
Consequently, with the development of the
- PSDAR, activity specifications, cost-benefit and safety analyses, work packages, and procedures would be assembled to support the proposed decontamination and dismantling activities.
Site Preparations Following final plant shutdown, and in preparation for actual decommissioning activities, the following activities are initiated:
- Characterization of the site and surrounding environs. This includes radiation surveys of work areas, major components (including the reactor vessel and its internals), internal piping, and primary shield cores.
- Isolation of the spent fuel storage pools and fuel handling systems, such that decommissioning operations can commence on the balance of the plant. The pools will remain operational for approximately five and one-half years following the cessation of operations. During this time period, it is assumed that the spent fuel residing in the pools that cannot be directly transferred to the DOE will be moved to an ISFSI for interim storage
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 4 of 12 TLG Services, LLC
- Specification of transport and disposal requirements for activated materials and/or hazardous materials, including shielding and waste stabilization.
- Development of procedures for occupational exposure control, control and release of liquid and gaseous effluent, processing of radwaste (including dry-active waste, resins, filter media, metallic and non-metallic components generated in decommissioning), site security and emergency programs, and industrial safety.
2.1.2 Period 2 - Decommissioning Operations This period includes the physical decommissioning activities associated with the removal and disposal of contaminated and activated components and structures, including the successful release of the site from the 10 CFR Part 50 operating license, exclusive of the ISFSI. Significant decommissioning activities in this phase include:
- Construction of temporary facilities and/or modification of existing facilities to support dismantling activities. For example, this will include a centralized processing area to facilitate equipment removal and component preparations for off-site disposal.
- Reconfiguration and modification of site structures and facilities as needed to support decommissioning operations. This will include the upgrading of roads (on-and off-site) as required to facilitate hauling and transport. Modifications will be required to the containment structure to facilitate access of large/heavy equipment. Modifications will also be required to the refueling area of the building to support the segmentation of the reactor vessel internals and component extraction.
- Transfer of the spent fuel from the storage pools to the ISFSI pad.
- Design and fabrication of temporary and permanent shielding to support removal and transportation activities, construction of contamination control envelopes, and the procurement of specialty tooling.
- Procurement (lease or purchase) of shipping canisters, cask liners, and industrial packages.
- Decontamination of components and piping systems as required to control (minimize) worker exposure.
- Removal of piping and components no longer essential to support decommissioning operations.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 5 of 12 TLG Services, LLC
- Removal of control rod drive housings and the head service structure from reactor vessel head. Segmentation of the vessel closure head.
- Removal and segmentation of the upper internals assemblies.
Segmentation will maximize the loading of the shielded transport casks, i.e., by weight and activity. The operations are conducted under water using remotely operated tooling and contamination controls.
- Disassembly and segmentation of the remaining reactor internals, including the core baffle, former and thermal shield (ANO-1), and core barrel, shroud and core support structure (ANO-2). Some material is expected to exceed Class C disposal requirements. As such, the segments will be packaged in modified fuel storage canisters for disposal at a federal facility.
- Segmentation of the reactor vessel. A shielded platform is installed for segmentation as cutting operations are performed in-air using remotely operated equipment within a contamination control envelope. The water level is maintained just below the cut to minimize the working area dose rates. Segments are transferred in-air to containers that are stored under water, for example, in an isolated area of the refueling canal.
- Removal of the activated portions of the concrete biological shield and accessible contaminated concrete surfaces. If dictated by the steam generator and pressurizer removal scenarios, those portions of the associated cubicles necessary for access and component extraction are removed.
- Removal of the steam generators and pressurizer for material recovery and controlled disposal. The ANO-1 steam generators will be moved to an on-site processing center and prepared for direct disposal. The generators will be shipped intact (no segmentation). With a larger diameter, it is assumed that the steam domes on the ANO-2 steam generators will need to be removed to facilitate transportation. Once removed, the internal components are segregated for recycling. The lower shell and tube bundle will be packaged for direct disposal. These components can serve as their own burial containers provided that all penetrations are properly sealed and the internal contaminants are stabilized, e.g., with grout. Steel shielding will be added, as necessary, to those external areas of the package to meet transportation limits and regulations. A similar process will be used to prepare the retired units for disposal. The pressurizer is disposed of intact.
At least two years prior to the anticipated date of license termination, an LTP is required. Submitted as a supplement to the Final Safety Analysis
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 6 of 12 TLG Services, LLC Report (FSAR) or its equivalent, the plan must include: a site characterization, a description of the remaining dismantling activities, plans for site remediation, procedures for the final radiation survey, designation of the end use of the site, an updated cost estimate to complete the decommissioning, and any associated environmental concerns. The NRC will notice the receipt of the plan, make the plan available for public comment, and schedule a local hearing. LTP approval will be subject to any conditions and limitations as deemed appropriate by the Commission.
The licensee may then commence with the final remediation of site facilities and services, including:
- Removal of remaining plant systems and associated components as they become nonessential to the decommissioning program or worker health and safety (e.g., waste collection and treatment systems, electrical power and ventilation systems).
- Removal of the steel liners from refueling canal, disposing of the activated and contaminated sections as radioactive waste. Removal of any activated/ contaminated concrete.
- Surveys of the decontaminated areas of the containment structure.
- Remediation and removal of the contaminated equipment and material from the auxiliary and fuel buildings and any other contaminated facility. Radiation and contamination controls will be utilized until residual levels indicate that the structures and equipment can be released for unrestricted access and conventional demolition. This activity may necessitate the dismantling and disposition of most of the systems and components (both clean and contaminated) located within these buildings. This activity will facilitate surface decontamination and subsequent verification surveys required prior to obtaining release for demolition.
- Routing of material removed in the decontamination and dismantling to a central processing area. Material certified to be free of contamination is released for unrestricted disposition, e.g., as scrap, recycle, or general disposal. Contaminated material is characterized and segregated for additional off-site processing (disassembly, chemical cleaning, volume reduction, and waste treatment), and/or packaged for controlled disposal at a low-level radioactive waste disposal facility.
Incorporated into the LTP is the Final Survey Plan. This plan identifies the radiological surveys to be performed once the decontamination activities are completed and is developed using the guidance provided in
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 7 of 12 TLG Services, LLC the Multi-Agency Radiation Survey and Site Investigation Manual (MARSSIM).[22] This document incorporates the statistical approaches to survey design and data interpretation used by the EPA. It also identifies commercially available instrumentation and procedures for conducting radiological surveys. Use of this guidance ensures that the surveys are conducted in a manner that provides a high degree of confidence that applicable NRC criteria are satisfied. Once the survey is complete, the results are provided to the NRC in a format that can be verified. The NRC then reviews and evaluates the information, performs an independent confirmation of radiological site conditions, and makes a determination on the requested change to the operating license (that would release the property, exclusive of the ISFSI, for unrestricted use).
The NRC will amend the operating licenses if it determines that site remediation has been performed in accordance with the LTP, and that the terminal radiation survey and associated documentation demonstrate that the property (exclusive of the ISFSI) is suitable for release.
2.1.3 Period 3 - Site Restoration Following completion of decommissioning operations, site restoration activities can begin. Efficient removal of the contaminated materials and verification that residual radionuclide concentrations are below the NRC limits will result in substantial damage to many of the structures.
Although performed in a controlled, safe manner, blasting, coring, drilling, scarification (surface removal), and the other decontamination activities will substantially degrade power block structures including the reactor, auxiliary, radioactive waste, low-level radioactive storage and solid radwaste storage buildings. Under certain circumstances, verifying that subsurface radionuclide concentrations meet NRC site release requirements will require removal of grade slabs and lower floors, potentially weakening footings and structural supports. This removal activity will be necessary for those facilities and plant areas where historical records, when available, indicate the potential for radionuclides having been present in the soil, where system failures have been recorded, or where it is required to confirm that subsurface process and drain lines were not breached over the operating life of the station.
It is not currently anticipated that these structures would be repaired and preserved after the radiological contamination is removed. The cost to dismantle site structures, once remediation is complete, with a work force already mobilized on site is more efficient than if the process is deferred.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 8 of 12 TLG Services, LLC This cost study presumes that non-essential structures and site facilities area are dismantled as a continuation of the decommissioning activity.
Foundations and exterior walls are removed to a nominal depth of three feet below grade. The three-foot depth allows for the placement of gravel for drainage, as well as topsoil, so that vegetation can be established for erosion control. Site areas affected by the dismantling activities are restored and the plant area graded as required to prevent ponding and inhibit the refloating of subsurface materials.
Non-contaminated concrete rubble produced by demolition activities is processed to remove reinforcing steel and miscellaneous embedments.
The processed material is then used on site to backfill foundation voids.
Excess non-contaminated materials are trucked to an off-site area for disposal as construction debris.
2.1.4 ISFSI Operations and Decommissioning For purposes only of this estimate, transfer of spent fuel to a DOE repository or interim facility is assumed to be exclusively from the ISFSI once the fuel pools have been emptied and the auxiliary buildings released for decommissioning. If this assumption is incorrect, it is assumed that DOE will have liability for costs incurred to transfer the fuel to DOE-supplied containers. The ISFSI will continue to operate under a general license (10 CFR Part 50) following the amendment of the operating licenses to release the adjacent (power block) property.
Assuming the DOE starts accepting fuel from ANO in 2038 (ANO-1),
transfer of spent fuel from the ISFSI is anticipated to continue through the year 2083. This assumption is made for purposes of this estimate, although it is acknowledged that the plant owner will seek the most expeditious means of removing fuel from the site when DOE commences performance.
At the conclusion of the spent fuel transfer process, the ISFSI will be decommissioned. The Commission will terminate the Part 50 license if it determines that the remediation of the ISFSI has been performed in accordance with an ISFSI license termination plan and that the final radiation survey and associated documentation demonstrate that the facility is suitable for release. Once the requirements are satisfied, the NRC can terminate the license for the ISFSI.
The design of the ISFSI is based upon the use of a multi-purpose canister and a vertical concrete module/overpack for pad storage. It is assumed
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 9 of 12 TLG Services, LLC that once the inner canisters containing the spent fuel assemblies have been removed, any required decontamination is performed on the storage modules (some minor neutron activation is assumed), and the license for the facility terminated, the modules can be dismantled using conventional techniques for the demolition of reinforced concrete. The concrete storage pad is then removed and the area regraded to minimize ponding.
2.2 SAFSTOR The NRC defines SAFSTOR as "the alternative in which the nuclear facility is placed and maintained in a condition that allows the nuclear facility to be safely stored and subsequently decontaminated (deferred decontamination) to levels that permit release for unrestricted use." The facility is left intact (during the dormancy period), with structures maintained in a sound condition. Systems that are not required to support the spent fuel pool or site surveillance and security are drained, de-energized, and secured. Minimal cleaning/removal of loose contamination and/or fixation and sealing of remaining contamination are performed. Access to contaminated areas is secured to provide controlled access for inspection and maintenance.
The engineering and planning requirements are similar to those for the DECON alternative, although a shorter time period is expected for these activities due to the more limited work scope. Site preparations are also similar to those for the DECON alternative. However, with the exception of the required radiation surveys and site characterizations, the mobilization and preparation of site facilities is less extensive.
2.2.1 Period 1 - Preparations Preparations for long-term storage include the planning for permanent defueling of the reactor, revision of technical specifications appropriate to the operating conditions and requirements, a characterization of the facility and major components, and the development of the PSDAR.
The process of placing the plant in safe-storage includes, but is not limited to, the following activities:
- Isolation of the spent fuel storage services and fuel handling systems so that safe-storage operations may commence on the balance of the plant. This activity may be carried out by plant personnel in accordance with existing operating technical specifications. Activities are scheduled around the fuel handling systems to the greatest extent possible.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 10 of 12 TLG Services, LLC
- Transferring the spent fuel from the storage pools to the DOE or to the ISFSI for interim storage, following the minimum required cooling period in the spent fuel pools.
- Draining and de-energizing of the non-contaminated systems not required to support continued site operations or maintenance.
- Disposing of contaminated filter elements and resin beds not required for processing wastes from layup activities for future operations.
- Draining of the reactor vessel, with the internals left in place and the vessel head secured.
- Draining and de-energizing non-essential, contaminated systems with decontamination as required for future maintenance and inspection.
- Preparing lighting and alarm systems whose continued use is required; de-energizing portions of fire protection, electric power, and HVAC systems whose continued use is not required.
- Cleaning of the loose surface contamination from building access pathways.
- Performing an interim radiation survey of plant, posting warning signs where appropriate.
- Erecting physical barriers and/or securing all access to radioactive or contaminated areas, except as required for inspection and maintenance.
- Installing security and surveillance monitoring equipment and relocating security fence around secured structures, as required.
2.2.2 Period 2 - Dormancy The second phase identified by the NRC in its rule addresses licensed activities during a storage period and is applicable to the dormancy phases of the deferred decommissioning alternatives. Dormancy activities include a 24-hour security force, preventive and corrective maintenance on security systems, area lighting, general building maintenance, heating and ventilation of buildings, routine radiological inspections of contaminated structures, maintenance of structural integrity, and a site environmental and radiation monitoring program. Resident maintenance personnel perform equipment maintenance, inspection activities, routine services to maintain safe conditions, adequate lighting, heating, and ventilation, and periodic preventive maintenance on essential site services.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 11 of 12 TLG Services, LLC An environmental surveillance program is carried out during the dormancy period to ensure that releases of radioactive material to the environment are prevented or detected and controlled. Appropriate emergency procedures are established and initiated for potential releases that exceed prescribed limits. The environmental surveillance program constitutes an abbreviated version of the program in effect during normal plant operations.
Security during the dormancy period is conducted primarily to prevent unauthorized entry and to protect the public from the consequences of its own actions. The security fence, sensors, alarms, and other surveillance equipment are maintained throughout the dormancy period. Fire and radiation alarms are also functional.
Consistent with the DECON scenario, the spent fuel storage pools are emptied within five and one-half years of the cessation of operations. It is assumed that the transfer of the spent fuel from the ISFSI to a DOE facility begins in 2043 and continues throughout the dormancy period until completed in 2083. If the assumption of transfer of fuel from the ISFSI to DOE is incorrect, it is assumed that DOE will have liability for costs incurred to transfer the fuel to DOE-supplied containers. Once emptied, the ISFSI is secured for storage and decommissioned along with the power block structures in Period 4.
After a period of storage (such that license termination is accomplished within 60 years of final shutdown), it is required that the licensee submit an application to terminate the license, along with a LTP (described in Section 2.1.2), thereby initiating the third phase.
2.2.3 Periods 3 and 4 - Delayed Decommissioning Prior to the commencement of decommissioning operations, preparations are undertaken to reactivate site services and prepare for decommissioning. Preparations include engineering and planning, a detailed site characterization, and the assembly of a decommissioning management organization. Final planning and the assembly of activity specifications and detailed work procedures are also initiated at this time.
Much of the work in developing a termination plan is relevant to the development of the detailed engineering plans and procedures. The activities associated with this phase and the follow-on decontamination and dismantling processes are detailed in Sections 2.1.1 and 2.1.2. The primary difference between the sequences anticipated for the DECON and
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 2, Page 12 of 12 TLG Services, LLC this deferred scenario is the absence, in the latter, of any constraint on the dismantling process due to the operation of the spent fuel pools in the DECON option.
Variations in the length of the dormancy period are expected to have some effect upon the quantities of radioactive wastes generated from system and structure removal operations. Given the levels of radioactivity and spectrum of radionuclides expected from sixty years of plant operation, no plant process system identified as being contaminated upon final shutdown will become releasable due to the decay period alone. However, due to the lower activity levels, a greater percentage of the waste volume can be designated for off-site processing and recovery.
The delay in decommissioning also yields lower working area radiation levels. As such, the estimate for this delayed scenario incorporates reduced ALARA controls for the SAFSTOR's lower occupational exposure potential.
Although the initial radiation levels due to 60Co will substantially decrease during the dormancy period, the internal components of the reactor vessel will still exhibit sufficiently high radiation dose rates to require remote sectioning under water due to the presence of long-lived radionuclides such as 94Nb, 59Ni, and 63Ni. Therefore, the dismantling procedures described for the DECON alternative would still be employed during this scenario. Portions of the biological shields will still be radioactive due to the presence of activated trace elements with long half-lives (152Eu and 154Eu). Decontamination will require controlled removal and disposal. It is assumed that radioactive corrosion products on inner surfaces of piping and components will not have decayed to levels that will permit unrestricted use or allow conventional removal. These systems and components will be surveyed as they are removed and disposed of in accordance with the existing radioactive release criteria.
2.2.4 Period 5 - Site Restoration Following completion of decommissioning operations, site-restoration activities begin. Dismantling, as a continuation of the decommissioning process, is a cost-effective option as described in Section 2.1.3. The basis for the dismantling cost is consistent with that described for DECON, presuming the removal of structures and site facilities to a nominal depth of three feet below grade and the limited restoration of the site.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 1 of 52 TLG Services, LLC
- 3. COST ESTIMATES The cost estimates prepared for decommissioning ANO consider the unique features of the site, including the nuclear steam supply system, electric power generating systems, structures, and supporting facilities. The basis of the estimates, including the sources of information relied upon, the estimating methodology employed, site-specific considerations, and other pertinent assumptions, is described in this section.
3.1 BASIS OF ESTIMATES The current estimates were developed using the site-specific, technical information relied upon in the decommissioning analysis prepared in 2019. This information was reviewed for the current analysis and updated as deemed appropriate. The site-specific considerations and assumptions used in the previous evaluation were also revisited. Modifications were incorporated where new information was available or experience from ongoing decommissioning programs provided viable alternatives or improved processes.
3.2 METHODOLOGY The methodology used to develop the estimates follows the basic approach originally presented in the AIF/NESP-036 study report, "Guidelines for Producing Commercial Nuclear Power Plant Decommissioning Cost Estimates,"[23] and the DOE "Decommissioning Handbook."[24] These documents present a unit factor method for estimating decommissioning activity costs, which simplifies the estimating calculations. Unit factors for concrete removal
($/cubic yard), steel removal ($/ton), and cutting costs ($/inch) are developed using local labor rates. The activity-dependent costs are estimated with the item quantities (cubic yards and tons), developed from plant drawings and inventory documents. Removal rates and material costs for the conventional disposition of components and structures rely upon information available in the industry publication, "Building Construction Cost Data," published by RSMeans.[25]
The unit factor method provides a demonstrable basis for establishing reliable cost estimates. The detail provided in the unit factors, including activity duration, labor costs (by craft), and equipment and consumable costs, ensures that essential elements have not been omitted. Appendix A presents the detailed development of a typical unit factor. Appendix B provides the values contained within one set of factors developed for this analysis.
Regulatory Guide 1.184[26] Revision 1, issued in October 2013, describes the methods and procedures that are acceptable to the NRC staff for implementing
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 2 of 52 TLG Services, LLC the requirements that relate to the initial activities and the major phases of the decommissioning process. The costs and schedules presented in this analysis follow the general guidance and sequence in the regulations. The format and content of the estimates is also consistent with the recommendations of Regulatory Guide 1.202,[27] issued February 2005.
This analysis reflects lessons learned from TLGs involvement in the Shippingport Station Decommissioning Project, completed in 1989, as well as the decommissioning of the Cintichem reactor, hot cells, and associated facilities, completed in 1997. In addition, the planning and engineering for the Rancho Seco, Trojan, Yankee Rowe, Big Rock Point, Maine Yankee, Humboldt Bay-3, Oyster Creek, Connecticut Yankee, Crystal River, Vermont Yankee, Fort Calhoun, Pilgrim, and Indian Point nuclear units have provided additional insight into the process, the regulatory aspects, and the technical challenges of decommissioning commercial nuclear units.
Work Difficulty Factors TLG has historically applied work difficulty adjustment factors (WDFs) to account for the inefficiencies in working in a power plant environment. WDFs are assigned to each unique set of unit factors, commensurate with the inefficiencies associated with working in confined, hazardous environments.
The ranges used for the WDFs are as follows:
- Access Factor 10% to 20%
- Respiratory Protection Factor 10% to 50%
- Radiation/ALARA Factor 10% to 37%
- Protective Clothing Factor 10% to 30%
- Work Break Factor 8.33%
The factors and their associated range of values were developed in conjunction with the AIF/NESP-036 study. The application of the factors is discussed in more detail in that publication.
Scheduling Program Durations The unit factors, adjusted by the WDFs as described above, are applied against the inventory of materials to be removed in the radiological controlled areas. The resulting labor-hours, or crew-hours, are used in the development of the decommissioning program schedule, using resource loading and event sequencing considerations. The scheduling of conventional removal and
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 3 of 52 TLG Services, LLC dismantling activities is based upon productivity information available from the "Building Construction Cost Data" publication. In the DECON alternative, dismantling of the auxiliary buildings systems and decontamination of the spent fuel pools is also dependent upon the timetable for the transfer of the spent fuel assemblies from the pools to the ISFSI.
An activity duration critical path is used to determine the total decommissioning program schedule. The schedule is relied upon in calculating the carrying costs, which include program management, administration, field engineering, equipment rental, and support services such as quality control and security. This systematic approach for assembling decommissioning estimates ensures a high degree of confidence in the reliability of the resulting costs.
3.3 IMPACT OF DECOMMISSIONING MULTIPLE REACTOR UNITS In estimating the near simultaneous decommissioning of two co-located reactor units there can be opportunities to achieve economies of scale, by sharing costs between units, and coordinating the sequence of work activities. There will also be schedule constraints, particularly where there are requirements for specialty equipment and staff, or practical limitations on when final status surveys can take place. A summary of the principal impacts is listed below.
- The sequence of work generally follows the principle that the work is done at ANO-1 first, followed by similar work at ANO-2. This permits the experience gained at ANO-1 to be applied by the workforce at the second unit. It should be noted however, that the estimate does not consider productivity improvements at the second unit, since there is little documented experience with decommissioning two units simultaneously. However, there will be many common activities between the two units; therefore, the second unit costs for engineering and preparation of the dismantling procedures are assumed to be a fraction of the first unit (~55%).
- Segmenting the reactor vessel and internals will require the use of special equipment. The decommissioning project will be scheduled such that ANO-2s reactor internals and vessel are segmented after the activities at ANO-1 have been completed.
- Some program management and support costs, particularly costs associated with the more senior positions, can be avoided with two reactors undergoing decommissioning simultaneously. As a result, the estimate is based on a lead unit that includes these senior positions, and a second unit that excludes these positions. The designation as lead is based on the unit undertaking the most complex tasks (for instance vessel segmentation) or performing tasks for the first time.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 4 of 52 TLG Services, LLC
- The final radiological survey schedule is also affected by a two-unit decommissioning schedule. It would be considered impractical to try to complete the final status survey of ANO-1, while ANO-2 still has ongoing radiological remediation work and waste handling in process.
- The final demolition of buildings at Units 1 and 2 are considered to take place concurrently.
- ANO-1, as the first unit to enter decommissioning, incurs the majority of site characterization costs.
- Shared systems and common structures are generally assigned to ANO-2.
- Station costs such as emergency response fees, regulatory agency fees, corporate overhead, and insurance are generally allocated on an equal basis between the two units.
3.4 FINANCIAL COMPONENTS OF THE COST MODEL TLGs proprietary decommissioning cost model, DECCER, produces a number of distinct cost elements. These direct expenditures, however, do not comprise the total cost to accomplish the project goal, i.e., license termination, spent fuel management and site restoration.
3.4.1 Contingency Inherent in any cost estimate that does not rely on historical data is the inability to specify the precise source of costs imposed by factors such as tool breakage, accidents, illnesses, weather delays, and labor stoppages.
In the DECCER cost model, contingency fulfills this role. Contingency is added to each line item to account for costs that are difficult or impossible to develop analytically. Such costs are historically inevitable over the duration of a job of this magnitude; therefore, this cost analysis includes funds to cover these types of expenses.
The activity-and period-dependent costs are combined to develop the total decommissioning cost. A contingency is then applied on a line-item basis, using one or more of the contingency types listed in the AIF/NESP-036 study. "Contingencies" are defined in the American Association of Cost Engineers Project and Cost Engineers' Handbook[28] as "specific provision for unforeseeable elements of cost within the defined project scope; particularly important where previous experience relating estimates and actual costs has shown that unforeseeable events which will increase costs are likely to occur." The cost elements in this analysis are based upon ideal conditions and maximum efficiency; therefore,
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 5 of 52 TLG Services, LLC consistent with industry practice, contingency is included. In the AIF/NESP-036 study, the types of unforeseeable events that are likely to occur in decommissioning are discussed and guidelines are provided for a contingency percentage in each category. It should be noted that contingency, as used in this analysis, does not account for price escalation and inflation in the cost of decommissioning over the remaining operating life of the station.
Contingency funds are an integral part of the total cost to complete the decommissioning process. Exclusion of this component puts at risk a successful completion of the intended tasks and, potentially, subsequent related activities. For this study, TLG examined the major activity-related problems (decontamination, segmentation, equipment handling, packaging, transport, and waste disposal) that necessitate a contingency.
Individual activity contingencies ranged from 10% to 75%, depending on the degree of difficulty judged to be appropriate from TLGs actual decommissioning experience. The contingency values used in this study are as follows:
- Decontamination 50%
- Contaminated Component Removal 25%
- Contaminated Component Packaging 10%
- Contaminated Component Transport 15%
- Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal 25%
- Low-Level Radioactive Waste Processing 15%
- Reactor Segmentation 75%
- NSSS Component Removal 25%
- Reactor Waste Packaging 25%
- Reactor Waste Transport 25%
- Reactor Vessel Component Disposal 50%
- GTCC Disposal 15%
- Non-Radioactive Component Removal 15%
- Heavy Equipment and Tooling 15%
- Supplies 25%
- Engineering 15%
- Energy 15%
- Insurance, Taxes and Fees 10%
- Staffing 15%
- Characterization and Termination Surveys 30%
- Construction 15%
- Spent Fuel Capital Costs (Canisters and Overpacks) 15%
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 6 of 52 TLG Services, LLC
- Spent Fuel Transfer Costs 15%
- Operations and Maintenance Expenses 15%
- ISFSI Decommissioning 25%
The contingency values are applied to the appropriate components of the estimates on a line item basis. A composite value is then reported at the end of each detailed estimate (as provided in Appendices C and D). A contingency of 25% is applied to the subtotal of the ISFSI decommissioning costs in Appendix E.
3.4.2 Financial Risk In addition to the routine uncertainties addressed by contingency, another cost element that is sometimes necessary to consider when bounding decommissioning costs relates to uncertainty, or risk. Examples can include changes in work scope, pricing, job performance, and other variations that could conceivably, but not necessarily, occur.
Consideration is sometimes necessary to generate a level of confidence in the estimate, within a range of probabilities. TLG considers these types of costs under the broad term financial risk. Included within the category of financial risk are:
- Transition activities and costs: ancillary expenses associated with reducing the size of the labor force 50% to 80% shortly after the cessation of plant operations, national or company-mandated retraining, and retention incentives for key personnel.
- Delays in approval of the decommissioning plan due to intervention, public participation in local community meetings, legal challenges, and national and local hearings.
- Changes in the project work scope from the baseline estimate, involving the discovery of unexpected levels of contaminants, contamination in places not previously expected, contaminated soil previously undiscovered (either radioactive or hazardous material contamination), variations in plant inventory or configuration not indicated by the as-built drawings.
- Regulatory changes, for example, affecting worker health and safety, site release criteria, waste transportation, and disposal.
- Policy decisions altering national commitments (e.g., in the ability to accommodate certain waste forms for disposition, or in the timetable for such, or the start and rate of acceptance of spent fuel by the DOE).
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 7 of 52 TLG Services, LLC
- Pricing changes for basic inputs such as labor, energy, materials, and waste disposal.
This cost study does not add any additional costs to the estimate for financial risk, since there is insufficient historical data from which to project future liabilities. Consequently, the areas of uncertainty or risk are revisited periodically and addressed through repeated revisions or updates of the base estimates.
3.5 SITE-SPECIFIC CONSIDERATIONS There are a number of site-specific considerations that affect the method for dismantling and removal of equipment from the site and the degree of restoration required. The cost impact of the considerations identified below is included in this cost study.
3.5.1 Spent Fuel Management The cost to dispose of the spent fuel generated from plant operations is not reflected within the estimates to decommission ANO. Ultimate disposition of the spent fuel is within the province of the DOEs Waste Management System, as defined by the Nuclear Waste Policy Act. As such, the disposal cost is financed by a surcharge paid into the DOEs waste fund during operations. On November 19, 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ordered the Secretary of the Department of Energy to suspend collecting annual fees for nuclear waste disposal from nuclear power plant operators until the DOE has conducted a legally adequate fee assessment.
The NRC does, however, requires licensees to establish a program to manage and provide funding for the management of all irradiated fuel at the reactor site until title of the fuel is transferred to the Secretary of Energy. This requirement is prepared for through inclusion of certain high-level waste cost elements within the estimates, as described below.
Completion of the decommissioning process is highly dependent upon the DOEs ability to remove spent fuel from the site. DOE's repository program assumes that spent fuel is accepted for disposal from the nation's commercial nuclear plants in the order (the "queue") in which it was removed from service ("oldest fuel first"). The DOE contracts provide mechanisms for altering the oldest fuel first allocation scheme, including emergency deliveries, exchanges of allocations amongst utilities and the option of providing priority acceptance from permanently shutdown
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 8 of 52 TLG Services, LLC nuclear reactors. Because it is unclear how these mechanisms may operate once DOE begins accepting spent fuel from commercial reactors, this study assumes that DOE will accept spent fuel in an oldest fuel first order. The timing for removal of spent fuel from the site is based upon the DOEs most recently published annual acceptance rates of 400 MTU/year for year 1, 3,800 MTU total for years 2 through 4 and 3,000 MTU/year for year 5 and beyond.[29]
ISFSI Due to DOEs inability to remove fuel from the site, an ISFSI has been constructed at the site and fuel casks have been emplaced thereon to support continued plant operations. The ISFSI will be expected to operate throughout decommissioning, and beyond the conclusion of the remediation phase in the DECON decommissioning scenario, until such time that the transfer of spent fuel to the DOE can be completed.
Assuming that DOE begins accepting commercial spent fuel from the industry in 2035, ANO fuel is projected to be removed from the site beginning in 2038. The process is expected to be completed by the year 2083, based upon the current shutdown dates. The scenario is similar for the SAFSTOR alternative; however, based upon the expected completion date for fuel transfer, the ISFSI will be emptied prior to the commencement of decommissioning operations.
Operation and maintenance costs for the spent fuel pools and the ISFSI are included within the estimates and address the cost for staffing the facility, as well as security, insurance, and licensing fees. The estimates include the costs to purchase, load, and transfer the multi-purpose spent fuel storage canisters (MPCs) from the pools to the DOE and/or ISFSI.
Costs are also provided for transfer of the MPCs to the DOE from the ISFSI (although it is acknowledged that this may not occur and that the fuel in the MPCs may have to be repackaged at DOE expense).
Storage Canister Design The ISFSI currently contains 24 Ventilated Storage Casks (VSC)-24 casks loaded with spent fuel, the last one loaded in 2003. Subsequent dry fuel storage campaign used a Holtec HI-STORM dry storage system. The Holtec system consists of MPCs with nominal capacities of 24 assemblies (ANO-1) and 32 fuel assemblies (ANO-2), and a concrete storage overpack.
These capacity MPCs were utilized until 2023 for ANO-1 and through 2025 at ANO-2 at which time both units will begin using the HOLTEC FW casks with a 37 assembly storage capacity.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 9 of 52 TLG Services, LLC Canister Loading and Transfer The estimates include the cost for the labor and equipment to load and transfer the spent fuel canisters to the DOE and/or ISFSI from the wet storage pools. For estimating purposes only, an allowance is used for the cost to transfer the fuel from the ISFSI into the DOE transport cask.
A total of 24 VSC-24 casks were loaded at ANO before switching to the Holtec multi-purpose canisters.
The casks are currently non-transportable. As such, the fuel stored in these canisters is assumed to be repackaged before being shipped off site.
For purposes of this analysis only, it is assumed that DOE will accept already-canistered fuel (it is recognized that the canisters may not be licensed or licensable for transportation when DOE performs). If this assumption is incorrect, it is assumed that DOE will have liability for costs incurred to transfer the fuel to DOE-supplied containers.
Operations and Maintenance The estimates also include the cost of operating and maintaining the spent fuel pools and the ISFSI, respectively. Pool operations are expected to continue approximately five and one half years after the cessation of operations. It is assumed that the five and one-half years provides the necessary cooling period for the final core to meet the dry cask storage vendors system specifications. ISFSI operating costs are based upon the previously stated assumptions on fuel transfer and DOE performance (in removing the fuel from the site).
ISFSI Decommissioning In accordance with 10 CFR §72.30, licensees must have a proposed decommissioning plan for the ISFSI site and facilities that includes a cost estimate for the plan. The plan should contain sufficient information on the proposed practices and procedures for the decontamination of the ISFSI and for the disposal of residual radioactive materials after all spent fuel, high-level radioactive waste, and reactor-related GTCC waste have been removed.
A multi-purpose (storage and transport) dry shielded storage canister with a vertical, reinforced concrete storage overpack is used as a basis for the cost analyses. The overpack liners are assumed to have some level of neutron-induced activation, as a result of the long-term storage of the fuel,
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 10 of 52 TLG Services, LLC i.e., to levels exceeding free-release limits. As an allowance, 10 overpacks are assumed to require remediation, equivalent to the number of overpacks required to accommodate the final core off loads. The cost of the disposition of this material, as well as the demolition of the ISFSI facility, is included in the estimates.
In accordance with the specific requirements of 10 CFR §72.30 for the ISFSI work scope, the cost estimate for decommissioning the ISFSI reflects: 1) the cost of an independent contractor performing the decommissioning activities; 2) an adequate contingency factor; and 3) the cost of meeting the criteria for unrestricted use. The cost summary for decommissioning the ISFSI is presented in Appendix E.
GTCC The dismantling of the reactor internals is expected to generate radioactive waste considered unsuitable for shallow land disposal (i.e.,
low-level radioactive waste with concentrations of radionuclides that exceed the limits established by the NRC for Class C radioactive waste (GTCC)). The Low-Level Radioactive Waste Policy Amendments Act of 1985 assigned the federal government the responsibility for the disposal of this material. The Act also stated that the beneficiaries of the activities resulting in the generation of such radioactive waste bear all reasonable costs of disposing of such waste. Although the DOE is responsible for disposing of GTCC waste, any costs for that service have not been determined. For purposes of this estimate, the GTCC radioactive waste has been assumed to be packaged in the same canisters used to store spent fuel and disposed of as high-level waste, at a cost equivalent to that envisioned for the spent fuel. The number of canisters required and the packaged volume for GTCC was based upon experience at Maine Yankee (e.g., the constraints on loading as identified in the canisters certificate of compliance).
It is assumed only for purposes of these estimates that the DOE would not accept this waste prior to completing the transfer of spent fuel. Therefore, until such time as the DOE is ready to accept GTCC waste, it is assumed that this material would remain in storage at the ANO site (for the DECON alternative). It is acknowledged, however, that the plant owner will seek the most expeditious means of removing the GTCC from the site when DOE commences performance. In the SAFSTOR scenario, the GTCC material is shipped directly to a DOE facility as it is generated since the fuel has been removed from the site prior to the start of decommissioning.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 11 of 52 TLG Services, LLC 3.5.2 Reactor Vessel and Internal Components The reactor pressure vessel and internal components are segmented for disposal in shielded, reusable transportation casks. Segmentation is performed in the refueling canal, where a turntable and remote cutter are installed. The vessel is segmented in place, using a mast-mounted cutter supported off the lower head and directed from a shielded work platform installed overhead in the reactor cavity.
Transportation cask specifications and transportation regulations dictate the segmentation and packaging methodology.
Intact disposal of reactor vessel shells has been successfully demonstrated at several of the sites that have been decommissioned. Access to navigable waterways has allowed these large packages to be transported to the Barnwell disposal site with minimal overland travel. Intact disposal of the reactor vessel and internal components can provide savings in cost and worker exposure by eliminating the complex segmentation requirements, isolation of the GTCC material, and transport/storage of the resulting waste packages. Portland General Electric (PGE) was able to dispose of the Trojan reactor as an intact package (including the internals).
However, its location on the Columbia River simplified the transportation analysis since:
- the reactor package could be secured to the transport vehicle for the entire journey, i.e., the package was not lifted during transport,
- there were no man-made or natural terrain features between the plant site and the disposal location that could produce a large drop, and
- transport speeds were very low, limited by the overland transport vehicle and the river barge.
As a member of the Northwest Compact, PGE had a site available for disposal of the package - the US Ecology facility in Washington State. The characteristics of this arid site proved favorable in demonstrating compliance with land disposal regulations.
It is not known whether this option will be available when the ANO plant ceases operation. Future viability of this option will depend upon the ultimate location of the disposal site, as well as the disposal site licensees ability to accept highly radioactive packages and effectively isolate them
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 12 of 52 TLG Services, LLC from the environment. Consequently, the study assumes that the reactor vessel will require segmentation, as a bounding condition.
3.5.3 Primary System Components In the DECON scenario, the reactor coolant system components are assumed to be decontaminated using chemical agents prior to the start of dismantling operations. This type of decontamination can be expected to have a significant ALARA impact, since in this scenario the removal work is done within the first few years of shutdown. A decontamination factor (average reduction) of 10 is assumed for the process. Disposal of the decontamination solution effluent is included within the estimate as a "process liquid waste" charge. In the SAFSTOR scenario, radionuclide decay is expected to provide the same benefit and, therefore, a chemical decontamination is not included.
The following discussion deals with the removal and disposition of the steam generators, but the techniques involved are also applicable to other large components, such as heat exchangers, component coolers, and the pressurizer. The steam generators size and weight, as well as their location within the reactor building, will ultimately determine the removal strategy.
A trolley crane is set up for the removal of the generators. It can also be used to move portions of the steam generator cubicle walls and floor slabs from the reactor building to a location where they can be decontaminated and transported to the material handling area. Interferences within the work area, such as grating, piping, and other components are removed to create sufficient laydown space for processing these large components.
The generators are rigged for removal, disconnected from the surrounding piping and supports, and maneuvered into the open area where they are lowered onto a dolly. Each generator is rotated into the horizontal position for extraction from the containment and placed onto a multi-wheeled vehicle for transport to an on-site processing and storage area.
The ANO-1 generators are shipped intact to the disposal site. The ANO-2 generators (with their larger diameter steam domes) are disassembled on-site with the dome and lightly contaminated subassemblies designated for off-site recycling. The more highly contaminated tube sheet and tube bundle are packaged for direct disposal.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 13 of 52 TLG Services, LLC Disposal costs are based upon the volume and weight of the units. Each component is then loaded onto a rail car for transport to the disposal facility.
Reactor coolant piping is cut from the reactor vessel once the water level in the vessel (used for personnel shielding during dismantling and cutting operations in and around the vessel) is dropped below the nozzle zone.
The piping is boxed and transported by shielded van. The reactor coolant pumps and motors are lifted out intact, packaged, and transported for processing and/or disposal.
3.5.4 Retired Components The estimate includes the disposition of the two retired steam generators for each unit. The steam generators currently reside in a mausoleum located at the site and, following the cessation of plant operations, will be routed for processing and disposal. The estimate also includes the segmentation, processing and disposal of the ANO-1 retired reactor vessel head and stored hot leg piping.
3.5.5 Main Turbine and Condenser The main turbine is dismantled using conventional maintenance procedures. The turbine rotors and shafts are removed to a laydown area.
The lower turbine casings are removed from their anchors by controlled demolition. The main condensers are also disassembled and moved to a laydown area. Material is then prepared for transportation to an off-site recycling facility where it is surveyed and designated for either decontamination or volume reduction, conventional disposal, or controlled disposal. Components are packaged and readied for transport in accordance with the intended disposition.
3.5.6 Transportation Methods Contaminated piping, components, and structural material other than the highly activated reactor vessel and internal components will qualify as LSA-I, II or III or Surface Contaminated Object, SCO-I or II, as described in Title 49.[30] The contaminated material will be packaged in Industrial Packages (IP-1, IP-2, or IP-3, as defined in subpart 10 CFR §173.411) for transport unless demonstrated to qualify as their own shipping containers. The reactor vessel and internal components are expected to be transported in accordance with 10 CFR Part 71. It is conceivable that the reactor, due to its limited specific activity, could qualify as LSA II or III.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 14 of 52 TLG Services, LLC However, the high radiation levels on the outer surface would require that additional shielding be incorporated within the packaging so as to attenuate the dose to levels acceptable for transport.
Any fuel cladding failure that occurred during the lifetime of the plant is assumed to have released fission products at sufficiently low levels that the buildup of quantities of long-lived isotopes (e.g., 137Cs, 90Sr, or transuranics) has been prevented from reaching levels exceeding those that permit the major reactor components to be shipped under current transportation regulations and disposal requirements.
Transport of the highly activated metal, produced in the segmentation of the reactor vessel and internal components, will be by shielded cask. Cask shipments may exceed 95,000 pounds, including vessel segment(s),
supplementary shielding, cask tie-downs, and tractor-trailer. The maximum level of activity per shipment assumed permissible was based upon the license limits of the available shielded transport casks. The segmentation scheme for the vessel and internal segments is designed to meet these limits.
The transport of large intact components (e.g., large heat exchangers and other oversized components) will be by a combination of truck, rail, and/or multi-wheeled transporter.
Transportation costs for Class A radioactive material requiring controlled disposal are based upon the route and mileage to the EnergySolutions facility in Clive, Utah. Transportation costs for the higher activity Class B and C radioactive material are based upon the route and mileage to the WCS facility in Andrews County, Texas. Transportation cost for the GTCC material is assumed to be included within the disposal charge.
Transportation costs for off-site waste processing are based upon the route and mileage to Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Truck transport costs were developed from published tariffs from Tri-State Motor Transit.[31]
3.5.7 Low-Level Radioactive Waste Disposal To the greatest extent practical, metallic material generated in the decontamination and dismantling processes is processed to reduce the total cost of controlled disposal. Material meeting the regulatory and/or site release criterion, is released as scrap, requiring no further cost consideration. Conditioning (preparing the material to meet the waste acceptance criteria of the disposal site) and recovery of the waste stream is performed off site at a licensed processing center. Any material leaving
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 15 of 52 TLG Services, LLC the site is subject to a survey and release charge, at a minimum.
The mass of radioactive waste generated during the various decommissioning activities at the site is shown on a line-item basis in the detailed Appendices C and D, and summarized in Section 5. The quantified waste summaries shown in these tables are consistent with 10 CFR Part 61 classifications. Commercially available steel containers are presumed to be used for the disposal of piping, small components, and concrete. Larger components can serve as their own containers, with proper closure of all openings, access ways, and penetrations. The volumes are calculated based on the exterior package dimensions for containerized material or a specific calculation for components serving as their own waste containers.
The more highly activated reactor components will be shipped in reusable, shielded truck casks with disposable liners. In calculating disposal costs, the burial fees are applied against the liner volume, as well as the special handling requirements of the payload. Packaging efficiencies are lower for the highly activated materials (greater than Class A waste), where high concentrations of gamma-emitting radionuclides limit the capacity of the shipping canisters.
The cost to dispose of the lowest level waste and the majority of the material generated from the decontamination and dismantling activities is based upon the current cost for disposal at EnergySolutions facility in Clive, Utah. Disposal costs for the higher activity waste (Class B and C) were based upon Entergys most current agreement with WCS for the Andrews County facility.
3.5.8 Site Conditions Following Decommissioning The NRC will amend or terminate the site license if it determines that site remediation has been performed in accordance with the license termination plan, and that the terminal radiation survey and associated documentation demonstrate that the facility is suitable for release. The NRCs involvement in the decommissioning process will end at this point.
Building codes and environmental regulations will dictate the next step in the decommissioning process, as well as owners own future plans for the site.
A significant amount of the below grade piping is located around the perimeter of the power block. The estimate includes a cost to excavate this area to an average depth of six feet so as to expose the piping, duct bank,
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 16 of 52 TLG Services, LLC conduit, and any near-surface grounding grid. The overburden is surveyed and stockpiled on site for future use in backfilling the below grade voids.
Structures are removed to a nominal depth of three feet below grade. The voids are backfilled with clean debris and capped with soil. The site is then re-graded to conform to the adjacent landscape. Vegetation is established to inhibit erosion. These non-radiological costs are included in the total cost of decommissioning.
Concrete rubble generated from demolition activities is processed and made available as clean fill for the power block foundations. Intake structures are removed back to the embankment and the cooling tower demolished. The station grounds will be regraded such that the site will have a final contour consistent with adjacent surroundings, i.e., the configuration of the Dardanelle Reservoir and the Arkansas River will be maintained. The large underground tunnels between the water intake and turbine building will be isolated, sealed, and abandoned in place. Site utilities and service piping are abandoned in place. Electrical manholes are backfilled with suitable earthen material and abandoned. Asphalt surfaces in the immediate vicinity of site buildings are broken up and the material used for backfill on site, if needed.
The existing switchyard will remain in support of the electrical transmission and distribution system. Structures outside the secured owner controlled area (e.g., GSB) and access roads will also be left intact.
The estimates do not assume the remediation of any significant volume of contaminated soil.
3.6 ASSUMPTIONS The following are the major assumptions made in the development of the estimates for decommissioning the site.
3.6.1 Estimating Basis Decommissioning costs are reported in the year of projected expenditure; however, the values are provided in 2024 dollars. Costs are not inflated, escalated, or discounted over the periods of performance.
The estimates rely upon the physical plant inventory that was the basis for the 2019 analysis, adjusted as appropriate.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 17 of 52 TLG Services, LLC The study follows the principles of ALARA through the use of work duration adjustment factors. These factors address the impact of activities such as radiological protection instruction, mock-up training, and the use of respiratory protection and protective clothing. The factors lengthen a task's duration, increasing costs and lengthening the overall schedule.
ALARA planning is considered in the costs for engineering and planning, and in the development of activity specifications and detailed procedures.
Changes to worker exposure limits may impact the decommissioning cost and project schedule.
3.6.2 Labor Costs EAL will engage a Decommissioning Operations Contractor (DOC) to manage the decommissioning. The DOC will provide field level planning and supervision of the work force.
EAL will provide site security, radiological health and safety, quality assurance and overall site administration during the decommissioning and demolition phases. Contract personnel will provide engineering services, e.g., for preparing the activity specifications, work procedures, activation, and structural analyses, under the direction of EAL.
Reduction in the operating organization is assumed to be handled through normal company human resource practices (e.g., reassignment and outplacement). Personnel costs are based upon average salary information provided by EAL. Overhead costs are included for site and corporate support, reduced commensurate with the staffing of the project.
The craft labor required to decontaminate and dismantle the nuclear plant is acquired through standard site contracting practices. The current cost of labor at the site is used as an estimating basis.
A profile of the staffing levels for decommissioning, including contractors and craft, is provided in Figures 3.1 and 3.2 for the two alternatives.
Utility staffing levels will gradually decrease after completing the removal of physical systems. Staffing levels and management support will vary based upon the amount and type of decommissioning work. Craft manpower levels decrease after systems removal and structures decontamination and drop substantially during the license termination survey period. However, craft levels increase again during the site restoration period due to the work associated with structures demolition.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 18 of 52 TLG Services, LLC Security, while reduced from operating levels, is maintained throughout the decommissioning for access control, material control, and to safeguard the spent fuel (in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR Part 37, Part 72, and Part 73). Security costs include provisions for institutional overtime and recurring expenses while the pool is still operational. Once the fuel has been transferred to the DOE in 2083, the security organization will be reduced to Part 37 requirements.
3.6.3 Design Conditions Any fuel cladding failure that occurred during the lifetime of the plant is assumed to have released fission products at sufficiently low levels that the buildup of quantities of long-lived isotopes (e.g., 137Cs, 90Sr, or transuranics) has been prevented from reaching levels exceeding those that permit the major NSSS components to be shipped under current transportation regulations and disposal requirements.
The curie contents of the vessel and internals at final shutdown are derived from those listed in NUREG/CR-3474.[32] Actual estimates are derived from the curie/gram values contained therein and adjusted for the different mass of the ANO components, projected operating life, and different periods of decay. Additional short-lived isotopes were derived from NUREG/CR-0130[33] and NUREG/CR-0672,[34] and benchmarked to the long-lived values from NUREG/CR-3474.
The control elements are disposed of along with the spent fuel, i.e., there is no additional cost provided for their disposal.
Activation of the reactor buildings is confined to the biological shield.
3.6.4 General Transition Activities Existing warehouses are cleared of non-essential material and remain for use by Entergy and its subcontractors. The warehouses are removed once they are no longer needed. The plants operating staff performs the following activities at no additional cost or credit to the project during the transition period:
- Drain and collect fuel oils, lubricating oils, and transformer oils for recycle and/or sale.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 19 of 52 TLG Services, LLC
- Drain and collect acids, caustics, and other chemical stores for recycle and/or sale.
- Process operating waste inventories. Disposal of operating wastes (e.g., filtration media, resins) during this initial period is not considered a decommissioning expense.
Scrap and Salvage The existing plant equipment is considered obsolete and suitable for scrap as deadweight quantities only. Entergy will make economically reasonable efforts to salvage equipment following final plant shutdown.
However, dismantling techniques assumed by TLG for equipment in this analysis are not consistent with removal techniques required for salvage (resale) of equipment. Experience has indicated that some buyers wanted equipment stripped down to very specific requirements before they would consider purchase. This required expensive rework after the equipment had been removed from its installed location. Since placing a salvage value on this machinery and equipment would be speculative, and the value would be small in comparison to the overall decommissioning expenses, this analysis does not attempt to quantify the value that an owner may realize based upon those efforts.
It is assumed, for purposes of this analysis, that any value received from the sale of scrap generated in the dismantling process would be more than offset by the on-site processing costs. The dismantling techniques assumed in the decommissioning estimates do not include the additional cost for size reduction and preparation to meet furnace ready conditions.
For example, the recovery of copper from electrical cabling may require the removal and disposition of any contaminated insulation, an added expense. With a volatile market, the potential profit margin in scrap recovery is highly speculative, regardless of the ability to free release this material. This assumption is an implicit recognition of scrap value in the disposal of clean metallic waste at no additional cost to the project.
Furniture, tools, mobile equipment such as forklifts, trucks, bulldozers, and other property is removed at no cost or credit to the decommissioning project. Disposition may include relocation to other facilities. Spare parts are also made available for alternative use.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 20 of 52 TLG Services, LLC Energy For estimating purposes, the plant is assumed to be de-energized, with the exception of those facilities associated with spent fuel storage.
Replacement power costs are used to calculate the cost of energy consumed during decommissioning for tooling, lighting, ventilation, and essential services.
Emergency Planning FEMA fees associated with emergency planning are assumed to continue for approximately 18 months following the cessation of operations. At this time, the fees are discontinued. The timing is based upon the anticipated condition of the spent fuel (i.e., the hottest spent fuel assemblies are assumed to be cool enough that no substantial Zircaloy oxidation and off-site event would occur with the loss of spent fuel pool water). State and local fees continue until all fuel has been moved from the pool into dry storage (approximately five and one-half years following the cessation of operations).
Insurance Costs for continuing coverage (nuclear liability and property insurance) following cessation of plant operations and during decommissioning are included and based upon current operating premiums. Reductions in premiums, throughout the decommissioning process, are based upon the guidance provided in SECY-00-0145, Integrated Rulemaking Plan for Nuclear Power Plant Decommissioning.[35] The NRCs financial protection requirements are based on various reactor (and spent fuel) configurations.
Taxes Property taxes are included within the estimates. However, the tax is based upon the land, without any consideration of any ongoing site operations and property assets.
Site Modifications The perimeter fence and in-plant security barriers will be moved, as appropriate, to conform to the Site Security Plan in force during the various stages of the project.

SUMMARY
Schedules of expenditures are provided in Tables 3.1 through 3.4. The tables delineate the cost contributors by year of expenditures as well as cost contributor (e.g., labor, materials, and waste disposal).
The tables in Appendices C and D provide additional detail. The cost elements in these tables are assigned to one of three subcategories: License Termination, Spent Fuel Management, and Site Restoration. The subcategory License Termination is used to accumulate costs that are consistent with decommissioning as defined by the NRC in its financial assurance regulations (i.e., 10 CFR §50.75). The cost reported for this subcategory is generally sufficient to terminate the plants operating license, recognizing that there may be some additional cost impact from spent fuel management. Costs are included for approximately one year prior to the permanent cessation of operations for pre-planning and decommissioning preparations. The License Termination cost subcategory also includes costs to decommission the ISFSI (as required by 10 CFR §72.30). The basis for the ISFSI decommissioning cost that is included in both Appendices C and D is provided in Appendix E.
The Spent Fuel Management subcategory contains costs associated with the containerization and transfer of spent fuel from the wet storage pool to the DOE and/or ISFSI for interim storage, as well as the transfer of the spent fuel in storage at the ISFSI to the DOE. Costs are also included for the operations of the pool and management of the ISFSI until such time that the transfer of all fuel from this facility to an off-site location (e.g., interim storage facility) is complete.
Site Restoration is used to capture costs associated with the dismantling and demolition of buildings and facilities demonstrated to be free from contamination. This includes structures never exposed to radioactive materials, as well as those facilities that have been decontaminated to appropriate levels.
Structures are removed to a depth of three feet and backfilled.
As discussed in Section 3.5.1, it is assumed that the DOE will not accept the GTCC waste prior to completing the transfer of spent fuel. Therefore, the cost of GTCC disposal is shown in the final year of ISFSI operation (for the DECON alternative). While designated for disposal at a federal facility along with the spent fuel, GTCC waste is still classified as low-level radioactive waste and, as such, is included as a License Termination expense.
Decommissioning costs are reported in 2024 dollars. Costs are not inflated, escalated, or discounted over the period of expenditure (or projected lifetime of
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 3, Page 22 of 52 TLG Services, LLC the plant). The schedules are based upon the detailed activity costs reported in Appendices C and D, along with the timelines presented in Section 4.

- 4. SCHEDULE ESTIMATE The schedules for the decommissioning scenarios considered in this analysis follow the sequences presented in the AIF/NESP-036 study, with minor changes to reflect recent experience and site-specific constraints. In addition, the scheduling has been revised to reflect the spent fuel management described in Section 3.5.1.
A schedule or sequence of activities for the DECON alternative is presented in Figure 4.1. The scheduling sequence is based on the fuel being removed from the spent fuel pools within five and one half years. The key activities listed in the schedule do not reflect a one-to-one correspondence with those activities in the cost tables, but reflect dividing some activities for clarity and combining others for convenience. The schedule was prepared using the "Microsoft Project Professional" computer software.[36]
4.1 SCHEDULE ESTIMATE ASSUMPTIONS The schedule reflects the results of a precedence network developed for the site decommissioning activities, i.e., a PERT (Program Evaluation and Review Technique) Software Package. The work activity durations used in the precedence network reflect the actual man-hour estimates from the cost table, adjusted by stretching certain activities over their slack range and shifting the start and end dates of others. The following assumptions were made in the development of the decommissioning schedule:
- The auxiliary buildings are isolated until such time that all spent fuel has been discharged from the spent fuel pools to the DOE or to the ISFSI.
Decontamination and dismantling of the storage pools is initiated once the transfer of spent fuel is complete (DECON option).
- All work (except reactor vessel and reactor vessel internals removal and the spent fuel loading campaigns) is performed during an 8-hour workday, 5 days per week, with no overtime.
- Reactor and internals removal activities are performed by using separate crews for different activities working on different shifts, with a corresponding backshift charge for the second shift.
- Multiple crews work parallel activities to the maximum extent possible, consistent with optimum efficiency, adequate access for cutting, removal and laydown space, and with the stringent safety measures necessary during demolition of heavy components and structures.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 4, Page 2 of 7 TLG Services, LLC 4.2 PROJECT SCHEDULE The period-dependent costs presented in the detailed cost tables are based upon the durations developed in the schedules for decommissioning. Durations are established between several milestones in each project period; these durations are used to establish a critical path for the entire project. In turn, the critical path duration for each period is used as the basis for determining the period-dependent costs. A second critical path is shown for the spent fuel storage period, which determines the release of the auxiliary buildings for final decontamination.
Project timelines are provided in Figures 4.2 and 4.3 with milestone dates based on the 2034 and 2038 shutdown dates for Units 1 and 2, respectively. The fuel pools are emptied approximately five and one half years after shutdown, while ISFSI operations continue until the DOE can complete the transfer of assemblies.
Deferred decommissioning in the SAFSTOR scenarios is assumed to commence so that the operating licenses are terminated within a 60-year period from the cessation of plant operations.

- 5. RADIOACTIVE WASTES The objectives of the decommissioning process are the removal of all radioactive material from the site that would restrict its future use and the termination of the NRC license. This currently requires the remediation of all radioactive material at the site in excess of applicable legal limits. Under the Atomic Energy Act,[37] the NRC is responsible for protecting the public from sources of ionizing radiation. Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations delineates the production, utilization, and disposal of radioactive materials and processes. In particular, Part 71 defines radioactive material as it pertains to transportation and Part 61 specifies its disposition.
Most of the materials being transported for controlled burial are categorized as Low Specific Activity (LSA) or Surface Contaminated Object (SCO) materials containing Type A quantities, as defined in 49 CFR Parts 173-178. Shipping containers are required to be Industrial Packages (IP-1, IP-2 or IP-3, as defined in 10 CFR §173.411).
For this study, commercially available steel containers are presumed to be used for the disposal of piping, small components, and concrete. Larger components can serve as their own containers, with proper closure of all openings, access ways, and penetrations.
The destinations for the various waste streams from decommissioning are identified in Figures 5.1 and 5.2. The volumes are shown on a line-item basis in Appendices C and D and summarized in Tables 5.1 and 5.2. The volumes are calculated based on the exterior dimensions for containerized material and on the volume of components serving as their own waste containers.
A portion of the reactor vessel and internals are categorized as high activity shipments and, accordingly, will be shipped in reusable, shielded casks with disposable liners. In calculating disposal costs, the burial fees are applied against the liner volume, as well as the special handling requirements of the payload. Packaging efficiencies are lower for the highly activated materials (greater than Type A quantity waste), where high concentrations of gamma-emitting radionuclides limit the capacity of the shipping canisters.
No process system containing/handling radioactive substances at shutdown is presumed to meet material release criteria by decay alone (i.e., systems radioactive at shutdown will still be radioactive over the time period during which the decommissioning is accomplished, due to the presence of long-lived radionuclides).
While the dose rates decrease with time, radionuclides such as 137Cs will still control the disposition requirements.
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 5, Page 2 of 6 TLG Services, LLC The waste material produced in the decontamination and dismantling of the nuclear plant is primarily generated during Period 2 of DECON and Period 4 of SAFSTOR.
Material that is considered potentially contaminated when removed from the radiological controlled area is sent to processing facilities in Tennessee for conditioning and disposal. Heavily contaminated components and activated materials are routed for controlled disposal. The disposal volumes reported in the tables reflect the savings resulting from reprocessing and recycling.
For purposes of constructing the estimates, the current cost for disposal at EnergySolutions facility in Clive, Utah was used for a majority of the radioactive waste produced from the decommissioning activities. Separate rates were used for containerized waste and large components.
Demolition debris including miscellaneous steel, scaffolding, and concrete was disposed of at a bulk rate. The decommissioning waste stream also included resins and dry active waste.
Since EnergySolutions is not currently able to receive the more highly radioactive components generated in the decontamination and dismantling of the reactor, disposal costs for the Class B and C material were based upon Entergys most current agreement with WCS for the Andrews County disposal facility.

- 6. RESULTS The analysis to estimate the costs to decommission ANO relied upon the site-specific, technical information developed for a previous analysis prepared in 2019. While not an engineering study, the estimates provide the owner with sufficient information to assess its financial obligations, as they pertain to the eventual decommissioning of the nuclear station.
The estimates described in this report are based on numerous fundamental assumptions, including regulatory requirements, project contingencies, low-level radioactive waste disposal practices, high-level radioactive waste management options, and site restoration requirements.
The cost projected to promptly decommission the station (DECON), dismantle the structures, and manage the spent fuel is estimated to be $2.352 billion. The majority of this cost (approximately 70.4%) is associated with the physical decontamination and dismantling of the nuclear plant so that the operating license can be terminated.
Another 23.1% is associated with the management, interim storage, and eventual transfer of the spent fuel. The remaining 6.5% is for the demolition of the designated structures and limited restoration of the site.
The cost projected for deferred decommissioning (SAFSTOR) is estimated to be $2.611 billion. The majority of this cost (approximately 74.4%) is associated with placing the plant in storage, ongoing caretaking of the plant during dormancy, and the eventual physical decontamination and dismantling of the nuclear plant so that the operating license can be terminated. Another 19.9% is associated with the management, interim storage, and eventual transfer of the spent fuel. The remaining 5.7% is for the demolition of the designated structures and limited restoration of the site.
The primary cost contributors, identified in Tables 6.1 and 6.2, are either labor-related or associated with the management and disposition of the radioactive waste.
Program management is the largest single contributor to the overall cost. The magnitude of the expense is a function of both the size of the organization required to manage the decommissioning, as well as the duration of the program. It is assumed, for purposes of this analysis, that Entergy Operations will oversee the decommissioning program and manage the decommissioning labor force (with the exception of the ISFSI decommissioning discussed in Section 3.4.1 above). The size and composition of the management organization varies with the decommissioning phase and associated site activities. However, once the operating license is amended or terminated, the staff is substantially reduced for the conventional demolition and restoration of the site, and the long-term care of the spent fuel (for the DECON alternative).
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 6, Page 2 of 5 TLG Services, LLC As described in this report, the spent fuel pool will remain operational for a minimum of five and one half years following the cessation of operations. The pool will be isolated and an independent spent fuel island created. This will allow decommissioning operations to proceed in and around the pool area. Over the five and one half-year period, the spent fuel will be packaged into canisters assumed to be loaded into a DOE-provided transport cask or relocated to the ISFSI.
The cost for waste disposal includes only those costs associated with the controlled disposition of the low-level radioactive waste generated from decontamination and dismantling activities, including plant equipment and components, structural material, filters, resins and dry-active waste. As described in Section 5, disposition of the majority of the low-level radioactive material requiring controlled disposal is at the EnergySolutions facility. Highly activated components, requiring additional isolation from the environment (GTCC), are packaged for geologic disposal. The cost of geologic disposal is based upon a cost equivalent for spent fuel.
A significant portion of the metallic waste is designated for additional processing and treatment at an off-site facility. Processing reduces the volume of material requiring controlled disposal through such techniques and processes as survey and sorting, decontamination, and volume reduction. The material that cannot be unconditionally released is packaged for controlled disposal at one of the currently operating facilities.
The cost identified in the summary tables for processing is all-inclusive, incorporating the ultimate disposition of the material.
Removal costs reflect the labor-intensive nature of the decommissioning process, as well as the management controls required to ensure a safe and successful program.
Decontamination and packaging costs also have a large labor component that is based upon prevailing wages. Non-radiological demolition is a natural extension of the decommissioning process. The methods employed in decontamination and dismantling are generally destructive and indiscriminate in inflicting collateral damage. With a work force mobilized to support decommissioning operations, non-radiological demolition can be an integrated activity and a logical expansion of the work being performed in the process of terminating the operating license.
The reported cost for transport includes the tariffs and surcharges associated with moving large components and/or overweight shielded casks overland, as well as the general expense, e.g., labor and fuel, of transporting material to the destinations identified in this report. For purposes of this analysis, material is primarily moved overland by truck.
Decontamination is used to reduce the plants radiation fields and minimize worker exposure. Slightly contaminated material or material located within a contaminated area is sent to an off-site processing center, i.e., this analysis does not assume that
Arkansas Nuclear One Document E11-1828-001, Rev. 0 Decommissioning Cost Analysis Section 6, Page 3 of 5 TLG Services, LLC contaminated plant components and equipment can be decontaminated for uncontrolled release in-situ. Centralized processing centers have proven to be a more economical means of handling the large volumes of material produced in the dismantling of a nuclear plant.
License termination survey costs are associated with the labor intensive and complex activity of verifying that contamination has been removed from the site to the levels specified by the regulating agency. This process involves a systematic survey of all remaining plant surface areas and surrounding environs, sampling, isotopic analysis, and documentation of the findings. The status of any plant components and materials not removed in the decommissioning process will also require confirmation and will add to the expense of surveying the facilities alone.
The remaining costs include allocations for heavy equipment and temporary services, as well as for other expenses such as regulatory fees and the premiums for nuclear insurance. While site operating costs are greatly reduced following the final cessation of plant operations, certain administrative functions do need to be maintained either at a basic functional or regulatory level.
