! Page 2 of 9 The purpose for this contract modification is to modify and clarify the contract Statement of Work. Section C. to prescribe contractor activities for the completion of tasks 1 and 2. Literature Search and Development of Pathway Models and Task.3, the Options _ Paper and now an Issues Paper. This. contract modification also adds for clarification a new quality assurance'. sect, ion in l Section E r.d a delicary schedule in Part F. The contract modification also raises the contrcct estimated cost and fixed fee, allots incremental funding i to the contract, and extends the period of performance. The principal work l j changes in this mocification include:

1. Consistency, as much as is reasonable, with risk assessment results '

among NRC. EPA. and DOE in keeping with modification 12 of this contract. Peer review and consultation with an independent contractor of l draft uncertainty analysis for iron and steel, including development of

! an overall plan for the uncertainty analysis, interface with modeling l used in license termination for lands and structures as described in l NUREG/CR-5512 and its addendum, and presentation of the results for critical mM erials flows and scenarios needed for the rulemaking decision. The independent peer reviewer and consultant shall have the

{ minimum qualifications described in the " Work Requirements" section

below.

2. Specific reuse pathway dose assessment analysis and presentation. l

)

3. Comparison of the risk assessment results with the internationally  ;

applicable assessments of risk by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and the Commission of the European Communities (CEC).

4. Preparation of an issues paper and a regulatory options paper under Task 3.

1. In accordance with FAR clause 52.243-2 Changes-Cost Reimbursement (AUG 1987) ALT V (APR 1984) the following new contract sections are added to Sections C. E and F of the contract as indicated below. ,

C.1.3 SCOPE OF WORK

1. An new emphasis on interagency consistency in dose assessment modeling requires more work to complete Task 1. literature and other information sources. and Task 2. conceptual models, bases, rationale, and results.

The NRC requires the overall pathway dose assessments for an NRC recycling and reuse rulemaking in a timely manner while achieving consistent approaches modeled by NRC. EPA. and DOE. Pathway dose assessments are to be expressed as modeled pathway dose conversion factors (PDCF) with their associated uncertainties. Task 3. the development of the issues paper and the regulatory options paper, requires an increase of work due to the addition of preparation, expected revisions of an Issues Paper on Recycle / Reuse.

2. The desired solution is that the information data base, approaches.

! rationales, and PDCFs. with their associated uncertainties. are quantitatively the same or consistent for all common materials and scenarios modeled by NRC. EPA, and DOE. This consistency shall be the 4

foundation of the assumptions underlying the.all contract. work.

4

3. The standard for solution is that common PDCFs with their associated

! uncertainties, as calculated by the contractors for NRC, EPA and DOE.

j are within about a factor of two of each other and analyses not in '

< common are performed in a consistent manner as those that are in common.

The measurement of standard is the dose to the average member of the 4.

critical group (TEDE Sv) per activity concentration in scrap (Bq/kg or Bq/m2 ) and collective dose (person-TEDE Sv).

3. The contractor shall exchange information specified in the April 22, 1996, letter report with the contractors for EPA and DOE, and similarly exchange applicable follow-up information directly. Summarize the l results of the information exchanges in the monthly status letter i report.

4. The contractor shall identify in coordination with the contractors for EPA and DOE any remaining information needs for pathway dose conversion factor modeling that require a data call or data gathering from NRC sources industry professional contacts and with the assistance of the NRC Project Officer. develop a comprehensive questionnaire that the NRC Project Officer will approve and send to appropriate sources in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act.

5. The contractor shall review the draft Task 1 report. more recent information gathered through information exchanges with EPA and DOE and their contractors. and the above mentioned questionnaire to identify

i 6. The contractor shall benchmark and inter-calibrate with EPA and DOE the end-use scenarios for slag in a roadbed, automobile. and a large household appliance. Pathway dose conversion factors shall be calculated for both the average member of the public (non-worker) critical group i and collective doses to the population for each of the three scenarios.

Benchmarking and inter-calibration shall be performed in the manner i described in the A]ril 22. 1996. letter report. Deviations from this performance shall 3e approved in advance by the NRC Project Officer.

l NRC Project Officer to likely give the highest individual and collective l doses. The input information the model descriptions, and results shall

be reported in the revised draft Task 1 and revised draft Task 2 reports  ;

in a format similar to that used to report the results for iron and steel. The modeling for the other materials shall use the work done for iron and steel to the extent appropriate and practical for those materials.
