YNPS License Termination Plan Revision 0 Appendix 2B Impacted Area Assessments Buildings, Structures and Open Land Areas Inside of the RCA 2B-1

YNPS License Termination Plan Revision 0 Buildings Old PCA Warehouse (WST-01)

==

Description:==

WST-01 is a concrete block structure constructed on a reinforced concrete foundation. It contains a reinforced concrete tank/tub fitted with a drain that connects to the floor drain and continues to the Waste Disposal Building ash de-watering sump. It also had a locally-controlled ventilation system located in the northeast corner of the structure.

History: WST-01 was constructed for use as an equipment decontamination and storage facility.

It was subsequently converted to a contaminated area used for radioactive material storage only.

It was later decontaminated and is now used as a hazardous and mixed waste storage location.

The decontamination tub was generally used for items considered heavily contaminated. These include control rod dash-pots and other components of moderate size from the primary systems.

The glue in the joints of the drain line from this tub failed to hold over time and the use of the tub was discontinued. This drain line was partially remediated in 1984 during construction of the Radwaste Warehouse (WST-02). The area directly under the tub remains to be investigated.

Contamination:

1. Radionuclides Potentially Present: The primary radionuclides of concern for survey area WST-01 are Co-60, Cs-137, Ag-108m, Ni-63, Sr-90 and H-3.
2. Media: Reinforced concrete structure (slab), sub- floor soil, sub-surface structures
3. Continued Investigation: Continued investigation will evaluate below grade reinforced concrete and adjacent sub- floor soils Decommissioning/Decontamination Activities
1. Performed: Decommissioning activities performed in WST-01 include:
  • Closing of the tank/tub and floor drain system to inputs.
  • Removal of the local ventilation system.
  • Decontamination activities
  • Painting of the structure interior
2. Planned: Planned decommissioning activities for the WST-01 include demolition of walls to elevation 1035 6.
3. Anticipated End State Configuration: The end state configuration of WST-01 is anticipated to include:
  • Reinforced concrete structures (slab)
  • Subsurface concrete structures (foundations)
  • Sub- floor soil.

Classification Statement: Based upon the radiological condition of this survey area identified in the operating history and as a result of the decommissioning activities performed to date, survey area WST-01 is identified as a Class 1 Area.

AUX-01 is bounded by NOL-01 on the north, NSY-02 on the east, NOL-02 on the south and AUX-02 on the west. The structure is constructed of reinforced concrete.

History: The PAB was identified as a contaminated area shortly after the initial criticality of the YNPS reactor, as a result of a pipe leak. Over the operating history of the YNPS this portion of the plant has been maintained as a contaminated area.

Contamination:

1. Radionuclides Potentially Present: The primary radionuclides of concern for survey area AUX-01 are Co-60, Cs-137, Ag-108m, Sr-90, Fe-55, Ni-63, Am-241, and H-3.
2. Media: Reinforced concrete, surface soil, sub-surface soil
3. Continued Investigation: Continued investigation will evaluate below grade reinforced concrete and adjacent sub-surface soils Decommissioning/Decontamination Activities

West Primary Auxiliary Building (AUX-02)

==

Description:==

AUX-02 consists of that portion of the PAB that was not designed to contain portions of the primary (radioactive) operating systems of the plant. The design of the AUX-02 portion of the PAB did not provide for collection and control of radioactive liquid and gaseous spills or releases, if they occurred within this portion of the PAB. All areas within AUX-02 had floor drains that channeled liquids to the storm drain system. These spaces are not ventilated through the Primary Ventilation System. AUX-02 is bounded by NOL-01 and NOL-06 on the 2B-6

YNPS License Termination Plan Revision 0 north, AUX-01 on the east, NOL-05 on the south and NOL-06 and NSY-03 on the west. The structure consists of a steel frame and block wall construction.

History: The AUX-02 area of the PAB was identified as a contaminated as a result of a cross-contaminating event where water spilled from the seal water system vent. Contamination of AUX-02 also occurred when the Safety Injection Tank heating system pump leaked resulting in contamination of the floor and floor drains in the lower level of the PAB. Over the operating history of the YNPS, this portion of the plant has been decontaminated, in order to maintain it as a non-contaminated area.

Contamination:

1. Radionuclides Potentially Present: The primary radionuclides of concern for survey area AUX-02 are Co-60, Cs-137, Ag-108m, Sr-90 and H-3.

Yard Structures VC/Reactor Support Structure (BRT-01)

==

Description:==

BRT-01 is enclosed by NOL-01 on the east and NOL-06 on the west. BRT-01 consists of reinforced concrete structures remaining after demolition of the Lower Pipe Chase, the Fuel Transfer Chute Support, Vapor Container (VC) and the Reactor Support Structure (RSS). This includes the following:

The VC formerly contained the primary reactor systems such as the reactor vessel and steam generators. All of these primary system components have been removed leaving, as of September 2003, the concrete shield tank cavity structure surrounded by the steel sphere of the VC. The VC and support legs will be removed from site as radioactive waste leaving only the items listed above as an end state condition subject to these residual structures meeting the license termination criteria.

History: All the structures within BRT-01 have the same potential for being contaminated by work activities performed in the area.

==

Description:==

NSY-02 consists of the concrete structure that contained the purification system ion exchange vessels and filter capsules in a water- filled shield tank and an adjoining valve gallery and pipe chase that connected the Ion Exchange Pit (IX Pit) to the PAB. In addition, survey area NSY-02 includes the stairway leading to the foyer of the east PAB cubicle corridor access.

The east wall of the IX Pit abuts NOL-02. The south line of the IX Pit also abuts NOL-02. The west line of the IX Pit abuts AUX-01 and NOL-01.

History: Survey area NYS-02 (IX Pit) became contaminated as a result of purification system leakage into the shield water in the IX Pit and as a result of inadvertent misalignment of valves.

The IX Pit itself leaked as a result of a flawed concrete joint in the northwest corner where it attaches to the SFP and the VC elevator foundation. This leak was repaired in 1965. It was also contaminated by spills during ion exchange resin transfers.

ISFSI Pad (NSY-10)

==

Description:==

NSY-10 is the ISFSI Pad, constructed in 1999 on the former location of the Pole Barn. NSY-10 is bounded entirely by NOL-07. The design and function of the VCC is such that no contamination of the ISFSI should result from their presence on the ISFSI.

History: Prior to 1999, this location was used for storage of materials and equipment some of which were radioactive materials. During construction of the ISFSI pad, a radiological assessment of some areas north of the pad (notably the NOL-03 and NOL-04 yard areas and the above grade exterior walls of structures within them) was performed using a technologically advanced method. The assessment was performed in anticipation that area background would be impacted by transfer of the fuel to the ISFSI pad. The ISFSI pad is now occupied by loaded VCC. The transportation of the loaded VCC was performed under strict controls to ensure that the transport process would not contaminate the ISFSI. The ISFSI is surveyed on a routine basis and it is anticipated to remain non-contaminated as a result of the presence of the VCC. Should future surveys identify the presence of contamination on the ISFSI pad then the survey area may be re-classified.
