Supplemental Response to Eighteenth Set of Interrogatories IV.

o c.

Describe the national security function (s), if any, performed at each. facility.

(2)

If an evacuation of such a facility were required, how many people would I

be required to remain at each facility for national security, or other reasons if the dose to such people were likely to reach:

(a) 1 rem;

]

i (b) 5 rems; (c) 25 rems; (d) 100 rems; (e) 250 rems; (f) 500 rems; (3)

Identify fully the national security impact, if any, of losing access to each facility; (a) for one week; (b) for one month; (c) for three months; (d) for six months; (e) for one year; (f) indefinitely.

. RESPONSE The Thermal Margin >Beyond Design Basis (TMDDB) base

  • /

case HCDA ~

is being evaluated for impact on national security and national energy supply.

Site specific dose calculations have been reviewed by the operators of the Y-12 Plant and the Oak Ridge Gaseous Diffusion Plant (ORGDP).

It is likely that bo'th plants would be manned for the duration of the initial release by essential personnel only.

If so, production at the Y-12 Plant would be curtailed for a short time period, e.g., 1-2 weeks.

Pro-duction at the ORGDP would probably not be curtailed since the gaseous diffusion cascade can continue to operate with a minimal number of operators and support personnel.

Thus production at these plants would be either unaffected, or affected for a very short time period by the TMBDB base case accident.

I received a Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry with minors in mathematics and physics from East Tennessee State University in 1956.

Following graduation, I joined the Atomic Energy Commission in 1956 as a technical intern. in..th,e Production Division, Oak Ridge Operations Office.

From 1956 to 1961, I had responsibilities in the technical analysis of nuclear materials production and on-site quality assurance programs; and for review, evaluation and on-site inspection of methods and procedures f or measurements and saf eguards.

I also completed the Nuclear Saf ety Training School at the Oak Ridge School of Reactor Technology and, af ter transferring to AEC Headquarters in Washington in 1961, completed graduate-level courses in nuclear reactors and operations research.

From 1961 to 1973, I served as physical scientist at AEC Headquarters in development and administration of policies, 4

procedures and standards for the U.S. nuclear materials

caf eguards programs; and perf ormed field evaluations of implementation practices.

From 1973 to 1979,-I was Chief of three branches in saf eguards and security during successive reorganizations f rom AEC to the Energy Research and Development Administration to the current Departmenc of Energy.

In these positions, I was responsible for research and development programs to improve or establish technology and systems for nuclear materials safeguards.

These programs resulted in major advancements in e

conceptual designs, diversion path analysis methods, near-real-time systems and supporting measurements and nondestructive assay technology.

For example, a safeguards conceptual design for mixed oxide (MOX) processing was completed during this period and serves as a basis for the designs at the FMEF.

From 1979 to 1981, I was Chief, International Support Branch in DOE's Office of Safeguards and Security with responsibilities fcr research and development in safeguards approaches and technology to improve the effectiveness of international saf eguards in support of U.S. nonproliferation and national security obj ectives.
