Hematite, Missouri ;
SUBJECT:
SAFETY EVALUATION REPORT, AMENDMENT APPLICATION DATED MARCH 22, 1989, RE: S~.ARTUP AND TEST OF NEW PELLET PRODUCTION LINES AND USE OF ADDITIONAL WAREHOUSE SPACE
Background
On Septenber 30, 1988, CE informed the NRC of the intent to construct additional manufacturing space at the Hematite facility. This new manufacturing space is a large extension that joins together two existing facilities, the pellet plant (Building 255) and the recycle area (Building 240). A major portion of the new manufacturing liner. space will be dedicated to the use of tvc new pellet production .
The remainder of the building is to be used far additional utilities, citices, and material storage. In addition to the construction of this manu-facturing space, the September 30, 1988, letter included a discussion of the expansion of the shipping, receiving, and storage areas. By letter dated Octeber 31, 1988, NRC expressed no objection to CE initiating construction of the t,dditional space provided that soil survey results were submitted for NRC reviea prior to constructing any flooring. CE submitted those results on Decent,er 20, 1988, and on January 24, 1989, Oak Ridge Associated Universities conducted an independent confirmatory survey. Accordingly, on February 24, 1989, CE was informed that there was no objection to the construction of the flooring for the pelletizing and warehouse art,; CE has since completed this construction and is presently installing the v 1 M production lines. In the subject application, CE requests authorization . startup and test the new pellet production lines with depleted uranium'and to use the additional warehouse space for storage of licensed material.
Discussion (
i l
l The new pellet production lines are housed in Building 254 and' consist of !
blending, pressing, sintering, grinding, and packaging operations. At this i time, the licensee requests authorization to startup and test these lines with depleted uranium. This testing phase will allow CE the opportunity to make any necessary adjustments and resolve any mechanical problems with the new process.
By using depleted uranium, no controls are necessary for nuclear criticality safety. Simi'.ar activities have been conducted in existing facilities, and the radiation safety controls from the license have been extended to Building 254 and are adequate. {
j Bulding 256-2, an extension of the current warehouse Building 256-1, will be '
utilized to store licensed material. The activities that will be authorized have bee.. conducted in existing facilities. Therefore, radiation safety and nuclear criticality safety controls from the license will be extended to Building 256-2 and are adequate.
