DRESDEN UNIT 1

- DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 1 OF 81

(/ INTRODUCTION This Decommissioning Program Plan for the Dresden Nuclear Power Station Unit I describes Commonwealth Edison's plans for the safe storage and eventual dismantlement of Unit 1.

This Decommissioning Program Plan discusses both generic and site-specific detailed information relative to the decommissioning project.

The United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) approved Revision 3 to the Dresden Unit 1 Decommissioning Program Plan on September 3,1993. Revision 4 of the Decommissioning Program Plan was made to clarify the previous narrative to better describe information submitted to the USNRC in the original approval process. Since the Decommissioning Program Plan replaces the Dresden Unit 1 Safety Analysis Report, this clarification was deemed necessary to provide an accurate description of the Dresden Unit I decommissioning activities. Revisions to the Decommissioning Program Plan are reviewed and approved based on criteria similar to the criteria of Section 50.59 of Title 10 of the of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR 50.59).

t Commonwealth Edison Company is decommissioning the Dresden Nuclear Power Station Unit 1 by placing the facility.in a safe storage condition (SAFSTOR) until Dresden Units 2 & l 3 are ready for decommissioning. If an extended operating life program (License Renewal) l for Units 2 & 3 is not initiated, all three Dresden units will be decommissioned by removal Q of radioactive material and dismantlement beginning as early as 2010. The SAFSTOR b license DPR-2 Amendment No. 37 for Dresden Unit 1, issued when Revision 3 of the i

Decommissioning Program Plan was approved by the USNRC (September 3,1993), has an expiration date of April 10, 2029.

Placing Unit 1 in safe storage (SAFSTOR) and dismantling at a later date was chosen as the most effective option. The decommissioning alternatives proposed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USNRC) are the following:

DECON - Equipment, structures, and portions of a facility and site containing radioactive contaminants are removed or decontaminated to a level that permits the l

property to be released for unrestricted use shortly after cessation of operations.  ;

ENTOMB - Radioactive contaminants are encased in a structurally long-lived material, such as concrete; the entombed structure is appropriately maintained and continued surveillance is carried out until the radioactivity decays to a level permitting unrestricted release of the property.

SAFSTOR - The nuclear facility is placed and maintained in a condition that allows the nuclear facility to be safely stored and subsequently decontaminated (deferred decontamination) until deferred dismantlement is accomplished to levels that permit release for unrestricted use.

O

i DRESDEN UNIT I DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 2 OF 81 f~\

V The safe storage and decommissioning of Dresden Unit I has been divided into five distinct i i

periods. The selection of the periods and the duration of each has been established based on  !

site specific conditions. The following definitions of each period are provided to update ,

terminology and to assist the reader in understanding the evolution of events that will take j

place at the site between now and approximately 2015 when it is expected that all dismantlement and site restoration activities will be complete, assuming no extended operatin life for either Units 2 or 3.

SAFSTOR Operations - Activities following unit shutdown which are needed to prepare for SAFSTOR with fuel in the Spent Fuel / Transfer Pool. This period also involves activities in preparation for SAFSTOR Dormancy including removal of fuel from the Spent Fuel / Transfer Pool.

SAFSTOR Dormancy - The extended period of safe storage without fuel in the Spent Fuel Pool. During this period, fuel will be stored in an approved fuel storage system on-site or at another licensed storage facility until DOE begins accepting fuel.

Preparation for Decontamination and Dismantlement - The activities in preparation for dismantlement including preparation of the final dismantlement plan. These activities will occur in the years near the end of SAFSTOR Dormancy and just prior to initiation of dismantlement operations.

/~

'(

Decommissioning Operations - The actual dismantlement and decontamination of the facilities. When radioactively contaminated materials have been removed, the license may be terminated.

i Site Restoration - The demolition of non-radioactive structures and back-filling any excavations remaining after decommissioning operations.

The objectives of the Decommissioning Program Plan and the elements implemented to achieve those objectives are described in the body of this document.

1. FACILITY OPERATION 1.1 LICENSING AND CONSTRUCTION HISTORY Dresden Unit I was the first nuclear plant built by private industry. It was a 4

cooperative effort by Commonwealth Edison and a " Nuclear Power Group" (NPG) that included six other electric utilities. General Electric Company designed the plant and offered it at a fixed contract price of $45 million, $15 million of which was contributed by NPG. Commonwealth Edison provided the remaining funding, the site, the electrical switchyard and other accessories. Bechtel Corporation was the engineer-constructor. Table 1.1 provides a chronology of Dresden Unit I licensing and construction history. Table 1.2 provides a chronology of Dresden Unit 1 operating and abnormal events history.

( 1.1.1 Onerating History Dresden Unit 1 produced power commercially from July 1960 to October 31, 1978, generating approximately 15,800,000 megawatt-hours of electricity. The Unit was taken off-line on October 31,1978, to backfit it with equipment to meet new federal regulations and to perform a chemical decontamination of major piping systems. (

I While it was out of service for retrofitting, additional regulations were issued following the March 1979 incident at Three Mile Island. The estimated cost to bring Dresden Unit 1 into compliance with these new regulations was more than $300 million. Commonwealth Edison concluded that the age of the Unit and its relatively small size did not warrant the added investment.

The chemical decontamination of the primary system was performed and 753 curies of Cobalt-60 and 12.4 curies of Cesium-137 were removed. This decontamination was completed in September 1984 and preparations began ,

shortly thereafter to prepare the facility for decommissioning. '

1.1.2 Abnormal Events

)

Dresden Unit I had significant problems associated with control rods and

(]

C undertook a control rod blade replacement program from November 1960 l

l through March 1961. In April of 1961, criticality testing was conducted with l

new control blades. On June 2 of 1961, turbine generator operation was '

resumed. The license power of the Unit was increased from 630 MWt to 700 MWt in September of 1962.

I The Unit had a history of minor steam leaks and erosion in steam piping in the  ;

early and mid-1960s - perhaps related to the use of saturated steam. There  !

were also fuel failures during the time of September through December of ,

1964 and other periods which, although not leading to off-gas releases above I limits, did cause redistribution of radionuclides from the fuel to other parts of the primary system. This higher rate of fuel failures at Dresden Unit I was not typical for the earlier BWR units.

During other outages in the late 1960s, ultrasonic inspections were made on l

extensive sections of primary piping and welds because of concerns regarding

, intergranular cracking failures in some of the smaller 304 stainless steel piping.

t l

O i k./

DRESDEN UNIT I DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 6 OF 81 Several systems in the plant used admiralty brass (Cu-Ni) heat exchange surfaces, including the Main Condenser. Most of these were taken out of service and replaced with stainless steel tubing. In the sixth partial refueling, the Condenser was retubed from admiralty brass to 304L stainless steel. The use of Cu-Ni surfaces did lead to translocation and deposition of corrosion products throughout the operating systems.

The use of carbon steel in the Secondary Feedwater System may have also contributed to the elevated corrosion radionuclide levels. These foregoing events led to the need to perform a chemical decontamination of the Primary System.

(V 1.2 SITE CHARACTERIZATION Dresden Nuclear Power Station Unit 1 (Dresden 1) is located on a 953-acre site near the confluence of the Des Plaines, Kankakee and Illinois Rivers. The plant shares the site with Units 2 and 3.

1.2.1 Tonocranhy The topography of the site is essentially rolling prairie, with gentle s!npes at maximum elevation differences of approximately 25 feet.

1.2.2 Soils and Geology The Dresden site lies in the Morris Quadrangle, where there is less than 200 feet between the highest and lowest points. The bedrock in this area is almost at the surface, with a shallow covering of sandy loam soil. This bedrock is in the Maquoketa formation of the Upper Ordovician series; the formation is of an upper limestone phase with a lower shale phase.

Underlying the Maquoketa formation is the Galena-Platteville formation of the Middle Ordovician series. It is comprised of a dolomite upper layer and a

'(~) limestone lower layer; this formation has a slight tilt to the east.

D 1.2.3 Hydrology

1. Surface Hydrology The surface drainage is collected by a channel that runs through the center of the site and empties into the Illinois River. There are several marshy areas at the upper ends of the channel, indicating little surface percolation.

The closest river is the Illinois, circling around the north side of the site before proceeding in a southerly direction. The Illinois originates within one half mile of the site's eastern boundary, at the confluence of the Des Plaines and Kankakee rivers.

l

,k

l i

DRESDEN UNIT 1 DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 9 OF 81

2. Groundwater Hydrology There are many shallow wells surrounding the site. The Maquoketa formation 3 yields negligible amounts of water and is tapped by many domestic wells. The l

lower aquifers, fed from absorption areas in southern / central Wisconsin, exist under artesian conditions and have a general southerly slope. However, the artesian pressure map indicates that the hydraulic gradient actually slopes in a I general north-easterly direction due to heavy pumping in the Joliet and Chicago I area.

1.2.4 Seismology Seismology data available (Loyola University) shows that over the last 100 years less than a dozen earthquakes occurred within a radius of 150 miles from Chicago. There is nothing in the geological stmeture of the area surrounding the site to suggest that this zone would be susceptible to major earthquakes.

1.2.5 Climatology and Meteorology Average annual wind velocity, derived from three local weather stations, varies from eight to eleven miles per hour from a south / southwest direction.

O V

Nominal average annual temperatures range from 38 to 41 degrees minimum and 59 to 61 degrees maximum. Average annual precipitation was 33 to 36 inches with an average snowfall varying from 21 to 34 inches.

( 1.3 FACILITY CHARACTERIZATION i

The Dresden site consists of three boiling water reactors (BWRs). Dresden 1 had a gross output of 210 MWe, while the output of Units 2 and 3 totals approximately 1660 MWe. The description of the general plant, plant structures and systems is included herein.

1.3.1 General Plant Description Dresden 1 consists of a General Electric (GE) dual-cycle BWR and a GE dual-admission turbine unit with the necessary support and auxiliary systems.

The Reactor Vessel, with its hemispherical ends, totals 41 feet in height and 12 )

feet, 2 inches in diametar. l l

The Reactor Containment is a sphere, constructed of butt welded steel plates of {

required curvature. Other main process buildings include the Turbine Building '

for housing the power extraction system, the Fuel Storage Building for storing and handling fuel, and the Radioactive Waste Facility.

1.3.2 Plant Structures o The layout of the plant structures and components are shown in Figures 1.1 Q and 1.2. Figure 1.2 depicts the plant layout prior to constmetion of Units 2 and 3. A brief description of the main plant structures is contained herein.

1. The Sphere (Reactor Building) is located to the east of the Turbine Building and north of the Fuel Storage Building. This building houses the inactive Reactor and support systems. The Fuel Transfer Tube and Fuel Transfer Canal are located in this building.
2. The Turbine Building for Unit 1 is situated west of the Sphere; at the Turbine Building's west end is the common Unit 2/3 Turbine Building (see Figure 1.1).

The Turbine Building houses the inoperable Turbine and Generator as well as operable equipment and components for Units 1,2 and 3.

3. The EL ;torage Building is south of the Sphere. The Unit 1 Fuel Storage Pool, Fuel Transfer Pool, Fuel Transfer Tunnel, and New Fuel Vault are located in this building. The original New Fuel Vault is now utilized as an equipment storage area. The Fuel Storage Building is the only remaining vital area for Unit 1 s

2. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES Dresden Unit 1 is being decommissioned by maintaining the Unit in a Safe Storage (SAFSTOR) mode until Units 2 & 3 are decommissioned and dismantled. At the end of the safe storage period, Unit I will be decornmissioned by decontamination and dismantlement.

The objectives of the decommissioning program are:

1. To maintain Dresden 1 systems and structures needed to support operation of Units 1, 2 and 3.
2. To secure nonessential Unit 1 systems and structures to limit maintenance, prevent deterioration and ensure there will be no potential for release of contained radioactivity.
3. To dispose of radioactive and other wastes including asbestos and PCBs remaining on-site in preparation for the SAFSTOR Dormancy period.
4. To store spent fuel temporarily on-site until an alternative is available.
5. To minimize contaminated areas in Unit 1.

r 6. To perform radiological monitoring and surveillance program for the V] SAFSTOR Dormancy period and compare existing conditions with the baseline characterization (Section 5.5.1).

2.1 DECOMMISSIONING ALTERNATIVE DESCRIPTION The SAFSTOR decommissioning alternative represents the effort required to prepare the facility for protective storage and to provide safety to the public from residual radioactivity remaining at the site. ' The facility is left essentially intact and structures are maintained in a sound condition. Systems not required to be operational for maintenance / surveillance during the SAFSTOR Dormancy period are being drained, de-energized and secured. Cleaning or removal of loose contamination and/or fixation and sealing of remaining contamination is being performed. Access to contaminated areas are controlled by site radiation protection procedures.

DRESDEN UNIT I DECOMMISSIONING PROGRA W PLAN R.5 PAGE 16 OF 81 A

(,) The overall decommissioning process of SAFSTOR followed by delayed dismantlement is organized into five separate periods, including:

Period 1: SAFSTOR Operations Period 2: SAFSTOR Dormancy Period 3: Preparation for Decontamination and Dismantlement Period 4: Decommissioning Operations Period 5: Site Restoration 2.1.1 Period 1:

SAFSTOR Onerations Period 1 activities in preparation for SAFSTOR Operations have included the activities described herein:

The Security Plan was revised devitalizing all areas of Unit 1 except for the Fuel Storage Building (Security Plan Revision No. 42).

The Dresden Unit 1 Operating License was amended to a Possession-Only-License (POL) with revised Technical Specifications (Amendment No. 36). The POL was issued by the USNRC on July 23,1986.

O C' -

The POL was amended to a SAFSTOR License with revised Technical l Specifications which authorized decommissioning (Amendment No. 37).

The SAFSTOR License was issued by the USNRC on September 3, 1993.

The Reactor Vessel has been defueled and drained; Reactor Vessel internals remain in place.

The preparations for SAFSTOR Dormancy include the activities described herein:

Drain, de-energize and secure systems no longer required for SAFSTOR; decontaminate as necessary.

Remove filter elements and demineralizer resin beds for on-site storage,

shipment, or burial.

Maintain the Spent Fuel Storage Pool and Fuel Transfer Pool, until other alternatives are available for fuel storage.

Maintain Fuel Pool and Transfer Pool water chemistry, until the fuel is D

[J removed.

l l

DRESDEN UNIT I DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 17 OF 81 Investigate, prepare, and implement long term fuel storage alternatives.

Maintain Lighting, Fire Protection. HVAC and Alarm systems, as required, for continued use during SAFSTOR Dormancy.

Maintain structural integrity.

Minimize contaminated areas of Unit 1.

Maintain the Environmental and Radiation Monitoring Program.

Maintain a '24-hour guard force and liaison with local law enforcement agencies.

During SAFSTOR Operations, Comed will cc tinue the program to monitor the performance or condition of systems, stmetures, and components (SSCs) associated with the storage, control, and maintenance of spent fuel in a safe condition in a manner that provides reasonable assurance that the SSC's are capable of performing their intended function, as required by 10CFR50.65.

During SAFSTOR Operations, Commonwealth Edison Company may undertake limited decommissioning activities [ including disposal and/or

/]

C removal of systems, components, and structures] that do not (1) foreclose release of the site for possible unrestricted use; (2) result in significant environmental impacts not previously reviewed; (3) result in there no longer being reasonable assurance that adequate funds will be available for decommissioning; or (4) violate terms of the License.

2.1.2 Period 2:

SAFSTOR Dormancy Activities required during the dormancy period for the SAFSTOR alternative include a 24-hour guard force, maintenance of structural integrity, and an Environmental and Radiation Monitoring Program.

Maintenance activities during SAFSTOR Dormancy are expected to be minimal due to the majority of equipment being layed up and de-energized.

An environmental surveillance program will be carried out during the dormancy period to monitor releases of radioactivity to the environment; any such releases will be identified and quantified. The Environmental Surveillance Program is a modified / abbreviated version of that carried on

, during normal plant operations. Site environmental monitoring is implemented for Units 1,2 and 3 in accordance with the Off-Site Dose Calculation Manual (ODCM).

P DRESDEN UNIT I DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 18 OF 81 ,

) Primary physical security is provided by the Dresden Station Security Force on a 24-hour basis for the duration of the SAFSTOR Dormancy period. Security during this period is primarily conducted to prevent unauthorized entry.

Security detection and notification systems will be used during SAFSTOR Dormancy in accordance with the Station's Security Plan.

During SAFSTOR Dormancy, Comed will continue to implement a program to monitor the performance or condition of systems, structures, and components (SSCs) associated with the storage, control, and maintenance of spent fuel in a safe condition in a manner that provides reasonable assurance 4

that the SSC's are capable of performing their intended function, as required by 10CFR50.65.

During SAFSTOR Dormancy, Commonwealth Edison Company may undertake limited decommissioning activities [ including disposal and/or removal of systems, components, and structures] that do not (1) foreclose release of the site for possible unrestricted use; (2) result in significant environmental impacts not previously reviewed; (3) result in there no longer being reasonable i assurance that adequate funds will be available for decommissioning; or (4) violate terms of the License.

/' 2.1.3 Period 3:

( Prenaration for Decontamination and Dismantlement This work will presumably be performed concurrently or sequentially with the decommissioning of Dresden Units 2 & 3. In general, all reactor dismantlement engineering, planning and site preparations occur during this period. A final dismantlement plan to address activities beginning in Period 4 will be prepared and submitted to the USNRC, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82 (" Final Rule", Ref.1). Utility and Decommissioning Operations

, Contractor (DOC) management staffs will be selected and mobilized on-site.

Decommissioning activity specifications and detailed procedures will be prepared for removal of systems, components and structures. The overall decommissioning sequence will be developed. Preparations will include selection of specialty contractors, long-lead tooling and equipment, arrangements for radioactive wa3te disposal and construction of site temporary facilities for the workforce.

2.1.4 Period 4:

Decommissioniny Ooerations The decommissioning operations during this period will be directed at

, removing radioactivity from systems, components and structures. Minimal O, chemical decontamination will be required since most short-lived radionuclides V

DRESDEN UNIT 1 DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 19 OF 81 r%

b will have decayed to levels low enough to permit removal with low occupational exposure. The Reactor Vessel and internals will be packaged, shipped, and buried, possibly in a segmented form. Similarly, the Steam Drum, Steam Generators and associated pumps and piping will be removed for controlled burial. Components and structures with radioactivity levels above USNRC Regulatory Guide 1.86, " Termination of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Reactors", Table 1 (Ref. 2) limits will be removed. The facility will be surveyed to certify the removal of radioactivity, and the License may be terminated. A final dismantlement program report will be prepared and submitted to the USNRC, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.82 (" Final Rule",

Ref.1).

2.1.5 Period 5:

Site Restoration Following completion of the decommissioning operations, site restoration activities may begin. These involve demolition and removal of remaining structures although it is expected that the Switchyard and other reusable structures may remain. Structure and building foundations will be backfilled.

Site areas affected by dismantlement activities will be cleaned up and the plant site will be graded and restored.

\ 2.2 CLEANUP CRITERIA Cleanup criteria will be established in accordance with appropriate rules and regulations in effect at the time of dismantlement plan submittal.

4. PROGRAM SCHEDULE AND COST Commonwealth Edison Company has provided reasonable assurance to the USNRC that funds l will be available to decommission the Company's nuclear generating facilities in compliance with Parts 50.33(k) and 50.75 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations.

Additionally, Commonwealth Edison Company's funding of deconnaissioning satisfies the l

requirements of State of Illinois Public Act 85-1400 signed into law on September 12, 1988, and the qualified nuclear decommissioning fund provisions of Section 468A of the Internal Revenue Code and 10 CFR 50.75. '

The overall program and schedule for decommissioning Dresden Unit I consists of five periods from a financial perspective starting with SAFSTOR Operations and ending with Site Restoration. The decommissioning program costs were estimated for each period of the program. A summary of the total estimated costs developed for Dresden Unit 1 (Table 4.2) using a generic regional approach is included in this document. A financial plan has been developed to assure decommissioning funds will be available to safely decommission and i dismantle Dresden Unit 1, as well as, the other Commonwealth Edison Company nuclear facilities. A brief description of the plan is provided in the paragraphs that follow.

4.1 PROGRAM SCHEDULE r The Dresden Unit 1 Decommissioning Program consists of five periods from a i financial perspective: SAFSTOR Operations, SAFSTOR Dormancy, Preparation for Decontamination and Dismantlement, Decommissioning Operations and License Termination, and Site Restoration. SAFSTOR Dormancy is shown as an assumed 10-year period, but actually will depend on the dates of shutdown for Dresden Units 2 l

and 3. Table 4.1 shows the duration in years and the expected date of completion used in the estimating process for each financial period of the program.

4.2 PROGRAM COSTS A summary of the Dresden Unit 1 total decommissioning costs is shown in Table 4.2.

The costs are in 1993 dollars and include 25% contingency for all periods.

i The estimate is based on the assumption that all work activities will be performed by a Decommissioning Operations Contractor (DOC) reporting to Commonwealth Edison's Unit 1 Decommissioning Plant Manager and Team. The costs include all project management, engineering and planning costs, decontamination, equipment and structure removal, packaging, shipping and burial of removed materials. Collateral costs such as equipment rental, health physics supplies, nuclear liability insurance, plant energy, site property taxes and staff relocation costs have also been accounted for and distributed to their respective periods of expenditure.

5.3 ACCIDENT ANALYSES In order to demonstrate the safety of Unit 1 in its current and future SAFSTOR states, accident analyses have been performed. These analyses, in part, provide bases for the configuration of systems, components, and structures; and implementation of administrative, and procedural controls.

5 The only remaining accident scenarios of concern involve the fuel stored in the Unit 1 Fuel Pool and Transfer Pool. The Reactor is defueled and no longer in service.

Because the spent fuel is in racks of the correct geometry (to prevent criticality) and underwater at all times (to provide shielding), criticality will not occur, either during normal or postulated upset conditions. This was demonstrated by a 1987 analysis of potential criticality issues.

Conservative analyses demonstrate that postulated Fuel Pool accidents will not result in off-site dose exposures in excess of 10 CFR 100 or US EPA limits.

In 1994, an analysis was performed to determine the radiological consequences of a Unit 1 Fuel Pool drain down. On-site and off-site dose rates from both direct and sky shine radiation were estimated. The off-site dose rate at the nearest site boundary was O

V less than 2 mrem /hr. This calculation assumed that all 683 fuel assemblies were in the fuel pool and all fuel bundles were uncovered.

In 1989, an analysis provided projections of worst case skin and whole body radiation doses to personnel on-site and at the site boundary due to a spent fuel rupture accident of all 683 fuel assemblies in the Fuel Storage Building with subsequent environmental i release. The study showed that the maximum off-site whole body dose from an I accidental release of Kr-85 to be below regulatory requirements. Note that no t

mechanism was identified which could lead to release of significant quantities of Kr-85 or other airborne effluents including tritium.

In 1989, an analysis was performed demonstrating that the worst case airborne tritium concentrations in the Fuel Storage Building would be less than 1% of the 10 CFR 20, Appendix B Table 1 concentrations.

The Generating Station Emergency Plan (GSEP) specifies actions to be taken in the l event of radiological accidents. These action levels were reviewed and approved by '

i the USNRC in P.B. Erickson letter to D.L. Farrar dated 4/25/94.

O

DRESDEN UNIT I DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 35 OF 81 w~

The only systems, structures, and components involving nuclear safety for Unit 1 are the Fuel Storage Pool, Fuel Transfer Pool, Fuel Transfer Tunnel and that portion of the Fuel Transfer Tube which extends into the Fuel Transfer Tunnel. These structures, systems, and components are not shared with Units 2 or 3. Postulated accidents involving these structures, systems, and components will not result in off- i site dose rates in excess of 10 CFR 100 requirements.

5.4 REVISED TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Changes have bee a made to the Dresden Unit 1 License and Technical Specifications to reflect the decoinmissioning status of Dresden Unit 1.

5.4.1 Amendment No. 37 The change to a SAFSTOR status entailed several changes to the Dresden Unit 1 License and Technical Specifications. The following is a brief overview of l those sections of the specifications that have been changed.

License Rewording of Facility Operating License No. DPR-2 to authorize (qf decommissioning of the Unit. The SAFSTOR License, License No.

DPR-2, Amendment No. 37 was obtained for Dresden Unit 1 on September 3,1993.

Renewal of the License until April 10,2029.

Technical Specifications Deletion of reference to those systems and components that will no longer be used.

Changes to operating descriptions for those systems remaining in service to protect the health and safety of the public. l Surveillance frequencies and parameters for systems / components remaining in service.

5.4.2 Amendment No. 38 Amendment No.18 to the Unit 1 License with revised Technical Specifications was approved by a letter dated 10/20/95, from R.A. Capra to D.L. Farrar.

The amendment relocated the requirements for the " Review, Investigative and Audit Functions" and frequencies of the Quality Assurance (QA) program from the administrative controls section of the TS to the appropriate sections of the Quality Assurance Topical Report (QATR). In addition, title changes to reflect the organization of the Nuclear Operations Division were made.

5.5 RESIDUAL RADIOACTIVITY In August 1982, prior to the Primary System chemical decontamination, Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL) conducted a survey at Dresden Unit 1 to estimate the residual radioactivity.

The results of the PNL survey are shown in Table 5.3, Residual Radionuclide Concentration in Corrosion Films; Table 5.4, Residual Radionuclide Inventories in Various Operating Systems; and Table 5.5, Total Residual Radionuclide Inventory.

p Concrete core samples and sediment / soil samples were taken as part of the PNL V survey conducted in August 1982. The concentrations in the first segment (0-1 cm) of all concrete core samples were above Regulatory Guide 1.86, Table 1 limits. The second segment (1-2 cm) in all cores except the Make-Up Demineralizer Room were also above the recommended limit. Core sample results are shown on Table 5.7.

Several soil samples obtained from the exclusion area around Dresden Unit 1 either approach or exceed the limit of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement on decommissioning of nuclear facilities. The results are shown as Table 5.8.

This estimate did not include: neutron-activated parts of the Pressure Vessel and the Biological Shield, or radioactivity in residues and resins in tanks and pumps, or the spent fuel stored on-site. However, estimates for the neutron-activated components were prepared in 1987 by TLG Engineering Inc., a consultant to Commonwealth Edison Company, using the ORIGEN2 computer code. Table 5.6 shows the Reactor Vessel and internals, and Biological Shield concrete radioactive inventory as of 1988.

5.5.1 Baseline Radiation Survey A baseline radiation survey was conducted by Commonwealth Edison's health physics personnel in 1992. The surveys show dose rates in mR/hr, smears counted for removable alpha and beta-gamma, surface contamination and air sample results.

5.5.2 Radiation Protection Program i

During SAFSTOR, a radiation protection program will be maintained to provide for the health and safety of workers and the general public. The program veill provide the necessary monitoring and control of radiological conditions.

5.5.3 Industrial Safety and Hygiene Program Commonwealth Edison Company has an industrial safety program that will be used during SAFSTOR.

l Q 6. DECOMMISSIONING ACTIVITIES 6.1 PERIOD 1: SAFSTOR OPERATIONS Dresden Unit 1 is currently in the SAFSTOR Operations period.

During SAFSTOR Operations and preparations for SAFSTOR Dormancy, systems no longer required will be secured and isolated, as necessary to prepare the Unit for SAFSTOR Dormancy. The objectives of SAFSTOR Operations is to safely, economically, and at a minimal personnel dose place the facility in a state of dormancy until subsequent decontamination and dismantlement is complete.

SAFSTOR Operations activities include the following:

Drain systems no longer in operation.

J Remove or shield source terms in routinely accessible areas, in accordance j with Station ALARA objectives. An example of source term reduction activities was the chemical cleaning of the primary system in September of j 1984, which removed 753 curies of Cobalt-60 and 12.4 curies of Cesium-137. '

Sealing connections to prevent leakage from operational systems to inoperable n systems.

U -

De-energizing power supplies, instruments, and controls to systems no longer

, in operation.  !

l Systems and equipment required for use during SAFSTOR will be operated and maintained as identified in Section 6.1.3.

During SAFSTOR Operations, Comed will continue to implement a program to monitor the performance or condition of systems, structures, and components (SSCs) associated with the storage, control, and maintenance of spent fuel in a safe condition in a manner that provides reasonable assurance that the SSC's are capable of performing their intended function, as required by 10CFR50.65.

, Gaseous radioactive waste handling and monitoring is described in the Technical Specilications. Unit 1 discharges are added to the discharge from Units 2 and 3 for a composite total.

Liquid radioactive wastes are collected and sent to Units 2 and 3 for processing and disposal. Technical Specifications prohibit direct discharge from Unit 1 to the environment.

( ) Unit I dry active wastes and other solid wastes are collected and processed with Unit 2 and 3 wastes. If any significant volumes of waste are generated, due to cleanup or minor demolition, these will be tracked separately for accounting purposes in determining decommissioning costs.

1 Commonwealth Edison Company may undertake limited decommissioning activities

[ including disposal and/or removal of systems, components, and structures] that do not (1) foreclose release of the site for possible unrestricted use; (2) result in significant I environmental impacts not previously reviewed; (3) result in there no longer being l reasonable assurance that adequate funds will be available for decommissioning; or (4) violate terms of the License.

The operating status of these systems or portions thereof are subject to future change utilizing a process similar to 10 CFR 50.59.

1. NUCLEAR FUEL SYSTEMS Fuel Storage
Fuel utilized in previous Unit 1 operations is stored in the Unit 1 Fuel Storage Pool, Unit 1 Fuel Transfer Pool, Unit 2 Fuel Storage Pool, and Unit 3 Fuel Storage Pool. The present distribution of this fuel is 660 fuel assemblies and 1 fuel rod basket in the Unit 1 Fuel Storage Pool,23 fuel assemblies in the Unit 1 Fuel Transfer Pool,102 fuel assemblies in the Unit 2 Fuel Storage Pool, and 104 fuel assemblies and 1 fuel rod basket in the Unit 3 Fuel Storage Pool.

Unit 2 and Unit 3 Fuel Storage Pools are controlled by Technical Specifications for these Units.

Technical Specifications for the Unit 1 Fuel Storage Pool require the Fuel Pool r~T water level to be 218 feet. A low water level condition alarms in the Control

'(j Room. The water level is monitored shiftly. Water level and water additions are trended. The Clean Demineralized Water System supplies normal make up water to the Fuel Storage Pool, and Fuel Transfer Pool. In an emergency, makeup water for the Fuel Storage Pool can be provided from the Fire Protection Water System.

Typically, the Unit 1 Fuel Storage Pool water level is maintained at approximately 25 feet. Water levels in the Fuel Storage Pool and Fuel Transfer Pool are normally equalized through an interconnecting pipe located within the Upper Fuel Pool Gate, approximately 13 feet above the top of active  !

fuel.

The gates which separate the Fuel Pool from the Transfer Pool are normally installed (Figure 6.5). Movement of these gates are controlled by procedures.

This control reduces the probability of a Transfer Pool, or Transfer Tunnel failure affecting the Fuel Storage Pool water level. A blind flange has been welded to the lower end of the Fuel Transfer Tube eliminating the possibility to drain the Fuel Storage Pool or Fuel Transfer Pool through the Transfer Tube.

p.

(

DRESDEN UNIT 1 DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 54 OF 81 Vl Fuel Pool Cooling In December of 1983, the Dresden 1 Fuel Pool water cooling and filter system was removed from service because of operational problems. An engineering l I

evaluation has been performed which concluded that Fuel Pool cooling is no longer required.

The Fuel Pool Cooling and Filter System will remain inoperable. ,

.i Fuel Pool Demineralizer The permanent Fuel Pool Demineralizer System was installed in October of 1994. For the purposes of water quality, the initial Fuel Pool cleanup is complete. Fuel Pool water quality will be maintained within Tecimical Specification limits.

Fuel Storage Building - Fuel Handling The Fuel Handling System inside the Fuel Storage Building includes the following structures:

Fuel Storage Pool (elevation 494'-10" to 521'-3")

Fuel Transfer Pool (elevation 474'-9" to 521'-3")

Fuel Transfer Tunnel (elevation 474'-9" to 490'-3")

C) The Fuel Building Grapple Crane is an overhead travelling crane above the Fuel Transfer and Storage Pools. The crane is used to transport materials underwater within or between the Fuel Storage Pool and Fuel Transfer Pool.

Prior to any fuel movements, restrictions requiring Fuel Storage Building doors to be closed, the Ventilation System to be operational, and the Fuel Building Area Radiation Monitors to be operational will be controlled by procedures.

Schere - Fuel Handling The Fuel Handling System inside the Sphere includes the following structures:

Fuel Transfer Canal (elevations 545'-6" to 584'-9%")

42" diameter Transfer Tube (elevation 490'-3" to 545'-6")

The Fuel Handling Canal has been drained and is not operable. The Fuel Transfer Tube is no longer in use. A blind flange isolates the Fuel Transfer Tube from the Fuel Transfer Canal. A welded blind flange isolates the Fuel Transfer Tube from the Fuel Transfer Tunnel.

The installation of the welded blind flange accomplishes the following:

.O V -

The possibility of draining the Fuel Transfer and Storage Pools.through the Transfer Tube is eliminated.

The Fuel Transfer Tube has been drained to a level below the 502' floor elevation. This level of draining precludes the potential for future l Transfer Tube failure due to freezing (Figure 6.4).

With the Fuel Transfer Tube sufficiently drained, the Sphere Fuel Handling System does not require heating during the winter.

Surveillance of the isolation valves in the Fuel Transfer Tube is not required. However, scheduled surveillances are conducted to ensure structural integrity is not compromised.

The Fuel Pool Grapple inside the Sphere is no longer in operation. This system was previously utilized to load fuel into the Reactor.

V[ 6.6 SITE RELEASE CRITERIA Prior to the release of Dresden Unit 1 for unrestricted use, and to comply with Regulatory Guide 1.86, " Termination of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Reactors," a radiological site release survey will be made. This survey will show the following items:

Identification of areas surveyed.

Show that reasonable effort has been made to reduce residual contamination to levels as low as are reasonably achievable. l Description of the scope of the survey and general procedures followed.

The survey results will be recorded in units that comply with the latest revision of Regulatory Guide 1.86, Table 1.

6.6.1 Survey Designs Indoor Survey -

f' x

In accordance with NUREG/CR-2082, " Monitoring for Compliance with Decommissioning Termination Survey Criteria" (Ref. 6.), each indoor survey is divided into two sub-units:

(1) Lower surfaces, comprised of floor surfaces, wall surfaces, up to a height of 2m, and any other surfaces easily accessible to a surveyor standing on the floor, and (2) Overhead surfaces, comprised of ceiling surfaces, wall surfaces higher than 2m and all other surfaces not described in (1) above (i.e., on top of piping or beams).

The areas to be surveyed will be divided into a rectangular grid system. The survey block will be no less than im nor more than 3m on a side. There should be at least 30 survey blocks in the population.

l The radiological conditions to be characterized include direct alpha j contamination levels, beta-gamma dose rates at lem above the surface, external l gamma radiation levels at im above the floor, and removable alpha and beta  !

contamination levels.

l The surveyor will record all measurements and the average of five measurements of each type in each block is to be reported as an " unbiased" i

I a

DRESDEN UNIT 1 DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 76 OF 81

('

\ measurement for that block, and the measurements at the " beta-gamma maximum point" are reported as " biased" measurements. Smear or dust samples will be taken at some of the beta-gamma maximum points for correlation of data.

Records of the survey should contain, as a minimum, the followmg:  !

(1) Survey block numbers, identifiable to a scale drawing and l

  • The building name or number.
  • The building floor number.
  • The surfaces surveyed.
  • The type of measurement and unit.

(2) Name of surveyor, date of survey. j i

l (3) Type, model number,and calibration date of instruments used.

Outdoor Survey -

In general outdoor surveys are the same as indoor surveys with the following exceptions:

V (1) No survey block should be less than 5m nor more than 15m on a side.

(2) Soil samples will be collected to determine radionuclide concentrations.

(3) Water and air samples will be collected in addition to biota sampling to define radionuclides present or movement on-or off-site. l (4) Core drilling will be taken if there is any reason to suspect subsurface contamination. The number of cores will be dependent upon the extent of contamination.

_ 7. WASTE MANAGEMENT Wastes from decommissioning operations consist of four types:

Radioactive materials Radioactive special materials

  • Special waste materials
  • Nonradioactive materials See Sections 7.2 and 7.3.

These estimated types and quantities of these wastes will be identified for each period of the decommissioning operations.

Information contained throughout Section 7 pertains to decommissioning cost estimates prepared prior to 1996. As part of the site specific cost estimate and site specific decommissioning experience, this information will be revised prior to February 1997.

7.1 RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS The total quantity of radioactive materials for each period is shown in Table 7.1 and is based on the Decommissioning Study for Dresden Unit 1 (Ref. 4). The volume of wastes include the burial container volume at an average void fraction of 40% to 60%. These wastes consist of piping, valves, pumps, heat exchangers, concrete, structural steel, and soil.

Most of the materials for controlled burial are categorized as Low Specific Activity (LSA) material containing less than Type A quantities, as defined in 49 CFR 173-189 (Ref. 7). The Reactor Vessel and materials are mostly Type B shipments and by existing regulations and technologies are expected to be shipped in reusable shielded casks with disposable liners. Some portions of the Vessel remotely located from the core center (e.g., Vessel Head) can qualify as LSA material and would be shipped as an LSA shipment.

DRESDEN UNIT I DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 79 OF 81 7.2 SPECIAL WASTE AND TSCA WASTE In Illinois, special waste is defined as industrial process waste or pollution control waste that must be specially manifested and disposed at an Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) authorized facility as required by Title 35 Illinois Administrative Code (IAC) Part 808. Industrial process wastes are those generated as a result of the manufacture of a product or performance of a service, and which pose a present or potential threat to human health or the environment or exhibit inherent properties which make the disposal of such waste in n landfill difficult to manage by normal means. Industrial wastes that fall under the special waste designation include asbestos, spent resins, oil-contaminated soil and certain process sludges.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's) are regulated under the Toxic Substance and Control Act (TSCA). In 40 CFR 761, the USEPA has established rules and regulations for the handling, marking, disposal and record-keeping of PCB's and PCB-containing equipment. PCB's have been historically used in the dielectric fluids found i in capacitors and some transformers. PCB's have also been found as contaminants in I

some mineral oil filled transformers.

The source of special wastes for the Dresden Unit I decommissioning would be i asbestos insulation on piping and components. The amount of non-radioactively l pd contaminated asbestos insulation is approximately 129 cubic yards (Ref. 4), assuming all insulation contains asbestos.

I l

The source of TSCA waste would be from transformers contaminated with PCB's.

The amount of oil in the 480V transformers is shown in Table 7.2. This waste will be disposed of at a TSCA-permitted disposal facility as part of Commonwealth Edison j Company's continuing program to dispose of PCB's. '

DRESDEN UNIT I DECOMMISSIONING PROGRAM PLAN R.5 PAGE 80 OF 81 Oil from Transformers 1,11,12,13,118,119 and 120 have been sampled and do not contain PCBs. A program is in progress to reduce or eliminate PCBs in transformers 14,15, 16 and 17, 7.3 RADIOACTIVE SPECIAL WASTES The primary source of radioactive special wastes would be asbestos insulation on radioactively contaminated piping and components. The estimated volume of this waste is approximately 535 cubic yards (Ref. 4) assuming that all insulation contains asbestos. It is assumed the controlling concern will be radioactivity, and therefore this waste must be disposed of in a low-level waste facility. The Dresden Unit 1 Decommissioning Study cost estimate was based on this waste being packaged in the same burial containers as the associated piping and components (Ref. 4).

7.4 NONRADIOACTIVE MATERIALS Nonradioactive (and non-special) waste materials will be generated during the ultimate dismantlement of Dresden Unit 1. The wastes will consist of clean piping, i components, structural steel, concrete rubble and miscellaneous trash. The estimated volume of this material is approximately 6,890 tons of scrap and 31,000 cubic yards of concrete rubble and trash.

h (O There are no federal regulations governing disposal of this material in local landfills.

Local ordinances may require a dumping permit and a disposal fee.
