SECTION 2.1.8 l DEFINITIONS ' 1 l.0 DEFINITIONS The defined terms of this section appear in capitalized type : l cnd are applicable throughout this' PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM. Note: This section is transferred directly from pre-1989- ! Technical Specifications per NRC Generic Letter GL 89-01. OPERABLE - OPERABILITY A 1.18 A system, subsystem, train, component or device shall be OPERABLE or have OPERABILITY when it is capable of performing
- its specified function (s), and when all necessary attendant
-instrumentation, controls, electrical power, cooling or seal !
water, lubrication or other auxiliary equipment that are ' required for the system, subsystem, train, component, or device to perform its function (s) are also capable of performing their related support functions (s). PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP) 1.22 The. PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM shall contain the provisions to assure that the SOLIDIFICATION of wet radioactive wastes results in a waste form with properties that meet the require- , ments of-10 CFn part 61 and of low level radioactive waste disposal sites. The.PCP shall identify process parameters i influencing SOLIDIF1 CATION such as pH, oil content, H0 3 esntent, solids. content, ratio of solidificatin1 agent to waste and/or nocassary additivites for each type of anticipated ; waste, and the acceptable boundary conditiens for the process
- parameters shall be identified for each waste type, based on
- laboratory scale and full scale testing or experience. The PCP >
chall also include an identification of conditions that must be catisfied, based on full scale testing, to assure that dewatering of bead resins, powdered resins, and filter sludges will result in volumes of free water, at the time of disposal, ' within the limits of 10CFR Part 61 and of low level radioactive , waste disposal sites. SOLIDIFICATION 1,32 SOLIDIFICATION shall be the immobolization of wet radioactive wastes such as evaporator bottoms, spent resins, sludges and reverse osmosis. concentrates as a result of a O process,of thoroughtly mixing the waste type with a SOLIDIFICATION agent (s) to form a free standing monolith with chemical and physical characteristics specified in the PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM (PCP). - M-6 Rev. 8

APPLICABILITY: At all times. ACTION: -
- a. With SOLIDIFICATION or dewatering not meeting dis-posal site and shipping and transportation requirements, suspend shipment of the inadequately processed wastes and correct the PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM, the procedures and/or the Solid Radwaste
(} System as necessary to prevent recurrence,
- b. With SOLIDIFICATION or dewatering not performed in accordance with the PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM, test the improperly processed wasta in each container to ensure that it meets burial ground and shipping requirements and take appropriate administrative j action to prevent recurrence.

- a. If any test specimen fails to verify SOLIDIFICATION, 4 the SOLIDIFICATION, of the batch under test shall be suspended until such time as additional test specimens can be obtained, alternative SOLIDI-FICATION parameters can be determined in accordance O
with the PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM, and a subsequent test verifies SOLIDIFICATION. SOLIDIFICATION of the batch may then be resumed using the alternative

- b. If the initial test specimen from a batch of waste 1 fails to verify SOLIDIFICATION, the PROCESS CONTROL 1 PROGRAM shall provide for the collection and testing of representative test specimens from each con- ,
secutive batch of the same type of wet waste until at j least three consecutive initial test specimens : demonstrate SOLIDIFICATION. The PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM shall be modified as required, as provided in Specification 6.13, to assure Solidification of , subsequent batches i of waster and I
- c. With the installed equipment incapable of meeting l Specification 3.11.3 or declared inoperable, restore ;

The PCP shall identify process parameters influencing SOLIDIFICATION such as pH, oil content, H 90 < content, solids content, ratio of solidification agent to waste and/or necessary additivites for each type of anticipated ; waste, and the acceptable boundary conditions for the process parameters shall be identified for each. waste type, based on l laboratory scale and full scale testing or experience. The PCP ' shall also include an identification of conditions that must be satisfied, based on full scale testing, to assure that dewatering of bead resins, powdered resins, and filter sludges will result in volumes of free water, at the time of disposal, within the limits of 10CFR Part 61 and of low level radioactive

instrumentation, controls, electrical power, cooling or seal water, lubrication-or other auxiliary equipment that are t i required for the system,1 subsystem, train, component, or device.

-to' assure that the SOLIDIFICATION of wet radioactive wastes
.results in a-waste, form with properties that meet the require- '
ments of 10 C110 part.61 and of low level radioactive waste disposal sites. .The PCP.shall identify process parameters influencing SOLIDIFICATION such as pH, oil content, H,0 ' content, solids content,' ratio of solidification' agent to waste
>cnd/or necessary additivites for each type ofLanticipated '
waste,'and the' acceptable boundary conditions for the process parameters shalltbe identified for each waste type, based on j L - laboratory scale and' full scale testing or' experience. The PCP ! chall also-include an identification of conditions that must be ; catisfied', based on full scale testing, to assure that E dewatering of bead resins,-powdered resins, and filter sludges - L
- will result in volumes of free water, at the-time of disposal,
' within theilimits1of 10CFR Part 61 and of low level radioactive waste disposal sites.

If the initial test specimen from a batch of waste fails to verify SOLIDIFICATION, the PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM shall provide for the collection and testing of representative test specimens from each con-secutive batch of the same type of wet waste until at least three consecutive initial test specimens demonstrate SOLIDIFICATION. The PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM shall be modified as required, as provided in Specification 6.13, to assure solidification of subsequent batches uf waster and
- c. With the installed equipment incapable of meeting Specification 3.11.3 or declared inoperable, restore the equipment to OPERABLE status or provide for contract capability to process wastes as necessary to satisfy all applicable transportation and disposal requirements.
BASES 3/4.11.3 SOLID RADIOACTIVE WASTES This specification implements the requirements of 10 CFR 50.36a and General Design criterion 60 of Appendix A to 10 CFR Part 50. The process parameters included in establishing the Process Control Program may include, but are not limited to waste type, waste pH, waste / liquid / SOLIDIFICATION agent! catalyst ratios, waste oil content, waste principal chemical constituents, and mixing and curing times. e I M-8 Rev. 8
