1.0 INTRODUCTION TO THE INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES ALIGNMENT PLAN 

(ISAP)

Vision Statement: The Infrastructure and Services Alignment Plan (ISAP) is a collaborative, 

structured mission support planning process, resulting in a strategic blueprint that is capable of 

supporting decision making for achieving the defined Hanford Cleanup Mission end states for fiscal 

year (FY)2020. 

The ISAP, developed by Mission Support Alliance, LLC (MSA), is a strategic-level planning 

document, supported by planning information, reflecting programs and projects linked to mission 

needs for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Richland Operations Office (RL), the DOE Office of 

River Protection (ORP), and Other Hanford Contractors (OHCs). The ISAP integrates RL and ORP 

planning parameters and several vision implementation documents, including area-wide plans, 

master plans, and project plans. ISAP’s central role in the infrastructure planning process for the 

Hanford cleanup mission is described in detail in the Mission Support Planning Process Description

(PPD) (MSC-GD-54665) and illustrated in Figure 1-1. The documents that are most influential to 

the ISAP include the Hanford Comprehensive Land Use Plan Environmental Impact Statement (CLUP) 

(DOE/EIS-0222-F), Hanford Site Cleanup Completion Framework (DOE/RL-2009-10), 2013 Hanford 

Lifecycle Scope, Schedule and Cost Report (DOE/RL-2012-13), and the Annual Forecast of Services 

(AFS). 

Figure 1-1. Major Planning Documents

1-1 Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

Additionally, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and the DOE-Pacific Northwest Site 

Office (DOE-PNSO) implement the DOE primary science mission at the Hanford Site in the 300 Area. 

PNNL provided three planning documents and site maps in FY2013, which may be included in the 

FY2014 ISAP annual update.

The ISAP is a collaborative structured planning document that includes current envisioned end 

states aligned with mission needs, planning information for achieving those end states, and 

summaries of current system attributes. Where gaps exist between infrastructure capabilities and 

cleanup mission needs, actions or strategies are defined to close or mitigate the gaps. These actions 

and strategies range from programmatic changes for like replacements to innovative solutions 

applying up-to-date technologies. When cleanup mission needs are not yet fully defined, ISAP 

identifies where decisions are needed to support future infrastructure planning. 

1.1 ISAP PLANNING PROCESS

ISAP consists of four development planning phases (Figure 1-2) that include inventory, synthesis, 

conceptual, and draft and final.

Phase A, Inventory. ISAP integrates RL and ORP vision statements and planning parameters, along 

with OHCs performance goals. Other requirements that influence the ISAP include Federal, State, 

Tribal regulations, and DOE directives. Appendix A identifies over 100 feeder documents that were 

included in the ISAP process.

Phase B, Synthesis. During synthesis, data collected during the inventory phase is evaluated. The 

outcome is the identification of gaps in the current state infrastructure, meeting the needs of the 

Hanford Site program, as defined in the end states for the respective.

Phase C, Conceptual. The conceptual phase applies the strategies and validates applicability for 

meeting the gaps. In addition, the conceptual phase encompasses related factors (sustainability, 

environmental, funds, technology, cost savings) that could impact or shape the path forward.

Phase D, Draft & Final. This includes the document production, stakeholder comment resolution, 

and final submittal.

1.2 ISAP ANNUAL PROCESS

Major events of the annual planning calendar are depicted in Figure 1-3. The planning calendar is 

broken up into three trimesters. The first trimester focuses on the collection of data through 

meetings with RL, ORP, OHCs, and other organizations. The second trimester emphasizes

developing a system gap summary based on the analyses of the data collected. The attributes and 

end states are also updated in the second trimester using input form the system leads. The third 

trimester combines the information discovered in the previous two trimesters, resulting in the final 

ISAP for FY2013.

2.0 DRIVERS TO THE FY2020 END STATE

During the synthesis and conceptual phases of the ISAP, key drivers and assumptions were 

captured. These phases laid the foundation for defining the FY2020 infrastructure system and 

identified program end states and attributes required to support the Hanford Site missions. This 

resulted in the identification of critical gaps between the current state of the infrastructure and the 

FY2020 end state. These gaps represent the more significant risks associated with achieving 

cleanup mission goals.

2.1 DRIVERS THAT IMPACT ISAP

Assumptions: Planning for the future requires considering both change and continuity. Most of 

the ISAP effort focuses on the changes to Hanford Site infrastructure. Assumptions made in 

preparing the ISAP are as follows:

• The ISAP is based on current Mission Support Contract (MSC) requirements, including federal 

regulations, executive orders, DOE directives, etc. Impacts associated with new requirements 

will be determined as they are incorporated into the contract.

• OHC technical resources will be available to support evaluations and engineering analyses as 

new infrastructure and service requirements are identified.

• Emergency management planning is based on the assumption that no changes will be made to 

the Hanford Site boundary and no new increases of significant inventories or operations 

involving hazardous material will occur.

• Hanford’s legacy ownership footprint is 586 square miles (mi2); however, the operational site 

footprint will be moving towards RL’s reduced footprint goal of 10 mi2 by FY2020.

• No new security interests will be identified at the Hanford Site or brought onsite; CH2M HILL 

Plateau Remediation Company (CHPRC) will declassify drums at the trench.

• OHC’s infrastructure and service requirements will be documented and provided to MSA, 

allowing sufficient time for implementation in order to minimize interference with their

cleanup activities.

• Low-Activity Waste Facility is categorized as a Cat 2 Nuclear Facility. 

• Implementing Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12) to provide Personal 

Identity Verification (PIV1) badges for all employees will require significant resources (staff, 

equipment, etc.). In addition, PIV1 will mandate badge access for buildings, computers, and 

other secure devices and areas. 

Hanford Site Services and Interface Requirements Matrix: Following the Interface 

Management Plan Process, MSA submitted the most recent Hanford Site Services and Interface 

Requirements Matrix, also known as the J-3, Table on December 20, 2012. 

Working collaboratively with CHPRC and Washington River Protection Solutions, LLC (WRPS), MSA 

updated and reformatted the J-3 Matrix Table to clarify service descriptions and define the cost 

allocation methodology for each J-3 Service area. A high-level summary of revisions that were 

made to the J-3 Matrix Table and are presented in Table 2-1. For specific details refer to the 

Contract Requirements J-3 Matrix Table in Appendix C.

Annual Forecast of Services (AFS): The primary objective of the AFS is to establish the immediate 

/ short-term (1 year out) demand of infrastructure and services. The AFS is called out as a separate 

deliverable and is submitted as a standalone document. The AFS is then used for developing rates 

that may impact the Contract Baseline Alignment Guide (CBAG) and other budget planning 

activities. 

MSC Section C.1.3 cites, “The ISAP shall incorporate the Annual Forecast of Services and 

Infrastructure’s needed utilities, services and infrastructure from other Site Contractors”. The ISAP 

is a strategic plan requiring long-term service forecasts for mission support infrastructure planning 

decisions about real property, facilities, and equipment with variable 7, 10, 20, 30 to 50+ year life 

expectancy periods for delivery of services, whereas, the AFS provides forecast information of 

limited applicability beyond the next planning year. The AFS and ISAP support separate but 

complementary planning horizons. ISAP Revisions 1 through 4 demonstrate the MSA and DOE 

2-2 Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

collaborative progress improvements to integrate the AFS into the ISAP, as shown in the service 

assessment tables. These tables reflect the current state of services and out year forecasts. The 

Contractor Requirements per J-3 Matrix Table, attached as Appendix C, reflects the year ahead and 

planning horizons FY2015 and FY2020. 

Projected Population: The existing and projected Hanford Site population impacts the demand for 

Hanford Site infrastructure and services, including the capacity required to meet that demand. The 

ISAP obtains the Hanford Site population forecast from the Hanford Ten-Year Site Plan (TYSP) 

(DOE/RL-2012-29), an annual report submitted by all DOE site offices, including RL and ORP. The 

TYSP is a rolling 10-year look-ahead based on Hanford Site population and facilities required to 

meet mission needs. 

Major trends expected in Hanford Site workforce population for the period FY2014 through 

FY2023 include the following:

• Peak worker population at ~ 16,500 in FY2013, including Energy Northwest (ENW) outage, 

Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO), and US Ecology Inc., operations

• PNNL slow growth rate at 0.2% annually through FY2023

• Total office population will be down ~ 1,600 over 10 years

• Non-office population will be down ~ 1,400 over 10 years

• 200E Area office projections up 600 workers by FY2017, based on Waste Treatment and 

Immobilization Plant (WTP) projections

• WTP operations staff projected to be ~1,400 beginning in FY2019.

Major Hanford Site population trends are subject to the following factors:

• Bechtel National Inc. (BNI), the contractor constructing the WTP, is continuing a major 

re-baseline effort. Near-term projections are expected to be lower than portrayed when the 

re-baseline effort is complete.

• WRPS includes WTP operation beginning in FY2019.

• 200E Area projections include ramp up to ~1,800 people before settling at ~1,400 people for

ongoing WTP operations.

• CHPRC includes personnel at the Environmental Restoration Disposal Facility beginning in 

FY2016.

• PNNL projections include personnel in privately owned and privately leased facilities located 

within the City of Richland.

The “City” portion of Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), LIGO and US Ecology Inc., are 

excluded from the report because respective infrastructure and service needs are populations 

obtained from non-Hanford sources, outside the scope of this plan. Table 2-1 provides the Hanford 

Site population for FY2013 and FY2020.

Planning Hierarchy and DOE Vision Documents: RL and ORP visions lead the planning document 

hierarchy, guiding the three major cleanup programs: River Corridor, Central Plateau, and Tank 

Waste. By FY2012 year-end, RL determined 93% of the annual goals set for the 2015 Vision had 

been accomplished. MSA’s annual planning cycle has been aligned to support the annual budget

cycle activities as outlined in the PPD (MSC-GD-54665). Appendix A is a listing of the documents 

that feed into or inform the ISAP.

OHC Contributions to ISAP: OHC contributions to the ISAP annual report at three intervals each 

year: 1) Direct data provided by the OHCs during December to February; 2) review comments on 

the ISAP draft report during May and June; and 3) the projections in the AFS report. The OHC input 

enables RL and MSA to determine how to operate, right size, and plan for the infrastructure systems 

required for cleanup mission support. 

Integrated Gap Analysis Summary: The ISAP gap analysis process identifies unmet services and 

infrastructure needs in each major system. During this process, the ISAP team facilitates workshops 

between MSA system and DOE subject matter experts. These workshops serve as a collaborative 

opportunity to discuss system and infrastructure needs in comparison to the overall system 

mission needs. Mission needs are captured for future projects or activities in order to resolve the 

identified gaps. Activities to resolve an identified gap can be any of the following:

• Preventive, predictive, corrective, and planned maintenance

• Business practices

• Company-level plans

• Policies, directives, and procedures, including administrative and technical procedures

• Requirements documents

• Guidance documents.

Appendix B, Infrastructure Reliability Project Priority List (IRPPL) provides a listing of system 

projects that have been vetted for mission need. Appendix D, the System Gap Summary, identifies 

potential needs that have not been fully vetted at the time of the ISAP publication. Items in 

Appendix D will be validated in FY2014 to determine how the reported gap is needed for the 

overall mission need. 

Overarching Attributes and End States: During FY2013, system planning implemented specific 

planning terms and a programmatic approach. This approach places a larger emphasis on planning 

daily operational system needs, including revealing the full extent of maintenance requirements 

and transitions for system end states. Also, this method results in the emerging Maintenance 

Management Program, including organizing approximately 300 next action steps within electrical, 

water, sanitary sewer, and support facilities systems.

The “End State” is defined as the future set of operating conditions and environment of a system 

that provides the necessary capabilities and reliability to meet the Hanford Mission. The attribute is 

defined as a specific characteristic, action, or objective related to a cause that is implemented from a 

particular system in support of the End State. 

2-5 Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

Attribute category standardization, developed for the 13 infrastructure systems and included in 

Chapter 3.0, is as follows: 

• Operate Safe & Regulatory Compliant System: 

o The degree to which a System, Structure, and Component (SSC) can be operated safely 

o Cost effective and efficient manner

o To operate system facilities and equipment in a safe and regulatory compliant manner

o To provide necessary procedures and training to promote safe work practices and a Safety 

Conscience Work Environment 

o To obtain and adhere to applicable documented regulatory requirements.

• Availability, Right-Size, & Reduce Active Site Footprint:

o The probability that the SSC, when used under given conditions, will perform satisfactorily 

when called upon

o Adjust system facility and equipment capabilities for the Hanford Mission

o To reduce Hanford Site footprint of active operations and facilities in accordance with the 

Hanford Mission.

• Sustainability & Minimize the Impacts to Environment:

o Reduce environment hazards

o Maintaining grounds, roads, and other surfaces using environmentally preferable practices

maintenance is performed. 

Risk Analysis: The ISAP includes emerging risks not already tracked within the Risk Register 

process. Deferred maintenance identified in FY2013 is the financial risk associated with known 

infrastructure system short-falls in the system maintenance programs, as well as the deficits in 

capital investment in the infrastructure. The risk associated with deferred maintenance at the 

Hanford Site is growing at 12% annually. This is a concern in FY2013 because several aged systems 

have identified needs; however, there are no funded upgrade projects during FY2014 and FY2015, 

according to budget guidance for the next 5 years. 

Passing of time increases the Hanford Site’s cumulative probability of one or more system failures. 

Postponement of funding for recommended and identified reliability projects will result in further 

degradation of other aging infrastructure systems, facilities, and/or equipment. Unplanned outages 

and post failure event costs are projected to increase during FY2014 and FY2015, and then decline 

gradually after FY2016 as reliability projects are projected to resume for funding and 

implementation. The overall risk level ebbs and flows with the degree to which RL decides to buy 

down risk by funding reliability projects capable of preventing, avoiding or minimizing much larger 

unplanned expenditures. 

Buying down known risks by funding projects in FY2014 and FY2015 will avoid post failure event 

and consequential damages/repair costs, but only if defined projects and procurements are funded 

and completed. Utility failures (caused by aged electrical lines or water supply lines failing) can 

cause after-the-fact recovery costs in the range of 8, 10 and possibly up to 20 times higher 

compared to the costs of funding preventative projects to meet defined gaps. Also, the water supply 

system has a long identified need for a backwash pump at the water treatment plant. A spare parts 

stocking policy to keep a new pump ready to connect quickly or fully redundant pump used in 

rotation would mitigate that risk. 

Risk: Required Maintenance vs. Planned Maintenance: Hanford Site maintenance funding falls 

short of validated and well documented maintenance needs. This common annual scenario, 

resulting in planned maintenance projects being deferred for several years, was addressed during 

FY2013. For example, 12 infrastructure projects that appeared on the FY2007 budget submittal are 

still present on the proposed FY2014 budget. To provide a finer point on the risk cost based on the 

known list of vulnerabilities reported in the FY2010, FY2011 and FY2012 ISAP annual reports, 

along with IRPPL for each year, the validated needs for RL funding during the period of FY2014 and 

FY2015 will rise to a very large risk exposure, in the event of system failure avoidable by 

infrastructure project funding during the next 2 years.

During FY2013, a maintenance management program was defined for five major systems including 

electrical, water, sanitary sewer utilities plus Waste Sampling and Characterization Facility (WSCF), 

providing analytical laboratory services. The maintenance management program scope included an 

in-depth assessment of vulnerabilities, conditions, capacities, and practices compared to expected 

future demands. Using a rational program approach, recommendations were described. 

Implementation of the maintenance program’s cost savings opportunities can create changes in 

2-7 Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

preventative, corrective and scheduled maintenance tasks and policies, including spare parts and 

other day-to-day practices. The maintenance management program places a strategic focus on 91% 

of the annual budget allocated to maintenance and operations compared to the remaining 9% 

funding for reliability projects for the five infrastructure systems. The continued project deferrals 

by DOE funding priorities create impacts and risks. Internal MSA information suggests risk will 

increase during the next several years. The topic has been most evident and best documented in the 

electrical, water, sanitary sewer, roads and WSCF systems. As new maintenance practices are first 

deployed within five systems, the remaining infrastructure system managers can later apply 

lessons learned and undertake a similar program roll-out of applicable program features in future 

years. For trends in the Deferred vs. Actual Maintenance across all of DOE’s 56 sites, the growth in 

Deferred Maintenance is a systemic problem. For example, $511M of maintenance was deferred in 

FY2012 across the entire DOE system, a 12% increase in 1 year added to the base of $84B in 

Deferred Maintenance needs for all of DOE.

MSA has implemented an infrastructure maintenance program strategy that includes a graded 

approach with a deliberate deferred maintenance with the acceptance of the measured risk of 

failure to allow application of funds for other maintenance or upgrades. The term deliberate 

deferred maintenance is described as intentionally accepting more risk of outage or system failure 

by not funding identified maintenance needs. Roads and water systems are two well documented 

systems with deliberate deferred maintenance in use by RL as a local strategy. Deliberate deferred 

maintenance is one element of a comprehensive operations and maintenance process. Only by 

determining field conditions then evaluating those conditions against anticipated operational needs 

will MSA be able to develop and implement a cost-effective program for upgrading and maintaining 

equipment to fulfill the mission. Risks include service interruptions, unsafe conditions for 

personnel working on the systems, safety system impacts, project delays, and significant capital 

outlay for failure recovery. For instance, if crack sealing and chip seal is not performed on the 

roads, the roads can degrade to a point where a much more costly rebuild is necessary. Also, if a 

long-term power failure occurs during WTP operations and the waste feed system and melters cool, 

the materials in process could solidify to the point of melter failure, requiring operations to be 

postponed until affected equipment can be replaced. DOE’s ability to meet regulatory milestones 

could be impacted.

The core of an efficient maintenance strategy is the comprehensive analysis and complete condition 

assessments of the infrastructure systems with emphasis on the systems failure modes. Once the 

current system condition is determined it can be measured against the required system 

performance (e.g., reliability, capacity). Potential failures are evaluated, failure frequencies and 

impacts are estimated, and the budget necessary to recover from the failure is determined. Parts 

that are needed are ordered and availability is verified. Work is preplanned to minimize response 

time. Strategy is discussed with system users (cleanup projects) to ensure they are willing to 

accept the projected risk of failure. Cleanup projects must balance that risk against the benefit of 

having added cleanup funds that might otherwise have been used for maintenance and upgrades.

Maintenance program requirements for Hanford’s non-nuclear facilities are met in accordance with 

DOE O 430.1B, Real Property and Asset Management. The DOE guidance also applies to nuclear 

facilities, yet Hanford Site for RL and MSA managed facilities are considered non-nuclear. Hanford 

Site facility maintenance is reported and managed at the project baseline summary level. Each 

2-8 Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

contractor is responsible for ensuring that the facilities under its control are operated in a safe and 

compliant manner. Each contractor uses its own work control software (e.g., Job Control System, 

MAXIMO1, and Computerized History and Maintenance Planning Software) to track and account for 

maintenance tasks. Directions for such tasks are typically generated by the given facility’s manager 

then fed into the appropriate contractor’s work control system. The time and materials costs are 

then estimated, priority levels are assessed, and work is scheduled and performed based on 

resource priority. Once the work has been completed, the work order is closed and appropriately 

modified to include actual time and materials costs. Regularly scheduled maintenance, such as filter 

replacement is tracked in a similar manner. This process generally applies to all facilities. 

Maintenance funding is budgeted by each cleanup project for its facilities and equipment. For 

services and infrastructure, the graded approach is more fully described in the TYSP and the 

maintenance program report prepared during FY2013, plus applicable DOE guidance documents, 

or other DOE sites as evidenced by the deferral of over $511M of maintenance across all of DOE’s 

sites during FY2012.

Risk: Deferred Maintenance, Asset Condition Index, and Preventive Maintenance: In 

accordance with DOE O 430.1B, each contractor must maintain real property assets in a manner 

that promotes operational safety, worker health, compliance with environmental regulations, 

property preservation, and cost-effectiveness, while meeting the program missions. This requires a 

balanced approach that not only sustains the assets, but provides for their recapitalization. This 

chapter discusses the maintenance management processes and practices in place to ensure the 

efficient and effective maintenance of the Hanford Site’s facilities and infrastructure for the long 

term.

Numerous projects are in process and planned to improve the overall condition of DOE, Office of 

Environmental Management (EM) facilities at the Hanford Site. Along with improving facility 

condition, these efforts will reduce deferred maintenance because the 176 facilities slated for nearterm disposition are not being maintained.

Preventive maintenance stems from life cycle cost analysis that identifies cost saving strategies 

requiring maintenance at specific intervals and levels to extend the life of infrastructure or 

facilities. For example, roads experience a 6:1 cost savings for chip seals to avoid overlays and a 

13:1 cost savings for regular overlays compared to full-width reconstruction if roads are not 

maintained for periods of 20 years and road ratings fall below scores of 30 or less. Despite knowing 

the economic advantages, preventive maintenance rarely is included in annual federal budgeting 

decision making at the Hanford Site.

A recent example of the kind of analytical investment approach for energy and water savings 

includes upgrades at the Federal Building in Downtown Richland funded by the American Recovery 

and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and implemented by General Services Administration Region 10. The 

analysis started by identifying and modeling 21 energy conservation measures in FY2009, then 

narrowing to 2 base bid plus 4 alternates then implementing the best 2 or 3 of the 6 finalists by 

FY2011. The same analytical approach is being used for existing general purpose facilities and

Hanford Site infrastructure going forward. Toward that end, 1 million gross square feet (gross ft2) 

of existing facilities are undergoing baseline energy audits as Type I inspections meeting Federal 

Energy Management guidance during FY2012 and FY2013. Approximately 35 of 59 facilities 

covering 365,000 gross ft2 have completed energy audits by March, FY2013.

Condition Assessments: Mission support planning for infrastructure takes into consideration 

infrastructure capacity, reliability, and volumes for services demanded by OHCs. Information is 

collected during the ISAP annual report preparation process and from the AFS report. Condition 

assessments are also required (by DOE guidance) at specific intervals for real property and 

equipment reporting purposes. In general, condition assessment information is gathered through 

the staff observations and daily operations. Information is recorded for compliance reporting, 

planning, annual budget, projects and system management purposes. In addition, special studies 

and reports resulting from less frequent, more concentrated condition assessments are required for 

a wide variety of reasons (detect conditions not readily visible, the declining operation condition 

due to the passing of time, as well as mechanical or structural potential for failure). The condition 

assessments are used to help RL and MSA system managers assure mission support readiness of 

each system for the anticipated OHC service demands. 

Service Needs: The Hanford Site is served on a customer-order basis for a wide array of site-wide 

services to RL, ORP, and OHCs. Services are provided by the RL-owned and MSA-maintained 

infrastructure systems from two broad categories of services. The service list is not all inclusive of 

all MSA services:

• Directly Tied. “Must have” services for mission success (e.g., analytical testing to meet 

regulatory requirements). Includes mission critical facilities in the Facilities Information 

Management System (FIMS) database.

• Support. Services that enable the mission to meet its goals and milestones, to minimize 

outages and interruptions, or avoid added expenses of using federal agency or offsite services, 

including indirect support facilities in the FIMS database.

3.0 ANNUAL UPDATE OF THE INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES ALIGNMENT PLAN

The ISAP is a planning document focused on documenting strategic decisions for Hanford Site’s 

infrastructure systems. While these decisions are informed by the various planning documents 

described in the PPD, forecasted mission needs are also solicited from the infrastructure system 

owners and OHCs as part of the annual update to ensure the most current information is captured. 

The PNNL Site is under a separate plan that is maintained by DOE-PNSO and PNNL. The strategy is 

presented in the form of action steps, specific projects, and scheduled milestones on the roadmap 

for each system (Figures 3-1 through 3-12, and 3-16 through 3-18) for the FY2020 planning 

horizon.

This ISAP includes the following infrastructure systems:

• Safeguards and Security and Hanford Patrol

• Fire and Emergency Response

• Emergency Management

• Volpentest Hazardous Materials Management and Emergency Response Training and Education 

Center (HAMMER) 

• WSCF for analytical laboratory services

• Transportation, including roads and rails

• Electrical

• Water

• Sanitary sewer

• Information technology

• Facilities

• Land, including biological controls and aggregate extraction

• Long-Term Stewardship (LTS).

Each system is organized and presented chronologically from today looking toward the future. 

Areas of emphasis include:

• FY2013 current system capacity and condition with attributes 

o System condition is described from Excellent to Poor as follows:

 Excellent –Recently constructed and meets current code

 Good or Fair – Several years old, minor deficiencies

 Poor – Very old, major deficiencies and unplanned outages frequently occur

o Each attribute is a specific characteristic, action, or objective related to a cause that is 

implemented for a particular system in support of the end state

• Major planning issues and gaps for the system to transition from existing condition to FY2020

• FY2020 end state, including the system roadmap and project table (Note: Project timeframes 

are defined by the IRPPL funding profile.)

• Cost-saving measures.

Detailed information is further defined in the appendices as follows:

• Appendix A lists the planning reference documents applicable to the ISAP topics

• Appendix B is the Infrastructure Reliability Project Priority List

• Appendix C contains the other Hanford contractor requirements per J-3 Matrix

3.1 INVESTING IN THE HANFORD SITE’S INFRASTRUCTURE

The long-term vision of RL and ORP dictate the need to continue to invest in site infrastructure to 

meet the Hanford Site missions that will extend to FY2050 and beyond. Those visions, evaluated 

against current ability of the infrastructure to support the mission needs, result in a current 

investment deficit:

• Roads: The core roads serving Hanford’s Central Plateau and its long-term cleanup projects 

continue to degrade with minimal capital improvements and maintenance funded over the past 

8 years. Multiple road projects have been identified to extend the life of road surface by 

applying chip seal and defer the more costly overlay projects. Overlay projects are also planned 

for roads already in poor condition to extend the road’s life and defer the more costly full-width 

rebuilding projects. 

• Electrical: The Central Plateau electrical substations are in good condition with recently 

installed or refurbished equipment. However, overall system capacity at the 251W substation 

is insufficient for forecasted system loads for ORP missions. Planned electrical projects have 

been identified to provide capacity upgrades for startup of tank waste feed operations. 

Conductors are a high priority for replacement. Additionally, aging overhead power poles 

beyond their life expectancy threaten reliability of electrical service to critical operation 

facilities in 200E and 200W. A strategy for phased replacement of the overhead power poles 

has been developed with electrical distribution lines prioritized based on critical mission needs. 

The 300 Area electrical service will transfer to the City of Richland by the end of 2013.

• Water: In the 2000’s a significant investment was made to reduce system leakage and 

minimize impact of groundwater recharge of the raw and potable water distribution systems 

with lining or replacing degraded sections. The 200E and 200W raw water reservoirs were 

recently lined to protect their structural integrity and eliminate leakage. However, projects to 

refurbish many other segments of buried piping remain unfunded with the number of buried 

pipe failures on the rise. There was a 200% increase in the number of buried pipe failures 

between 2011 and 2012. The long-term need for reliability and availably of these portions of 

the distribution system drives the need to invest in capital improvements in lieu of corrective 

maintenance.

• Sanitary Sewer: Completion of the 200W sewage lagoon and bio-solids handling facility 

successfully supports the high priority cleanup mission along the River Corridor and shrinking 

of the Hanford cleanup footprint to the Central Plateau. Follow-on investment is needed to 

maximize use of the new lagoon and eliminate/replace failing septic systems that are 

supporting long-term cleanup activities. Several septic systems in 200E and 200W already 

require regular pumping.

• Facilities: Consolidation remains as the central theme to facility management as cleanup 

efforts shrink to the Central Plateau. For general-purpose facilities that are slated to support 

long-term cleanup mission projects include roof and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning 

(HVAC) replacements to address age-related degradation. The Hanford Fire Department (HFD)

will consolidate its response facilities to Station 92 (between 200E and 200W) and a new fire 

station located to serve the 200E Area, thus eliminating the fire stations in the 100, 300, and 

400 Areas that have exceeded their design life. The 2711E fleet maintenance facility is a 

candidate for expansion, replacement, or relocation, perhaps using a satellite facility concept 

consistent with 400 Area closure planning.

3.2 SAFEGUARDS AND SECURITY AND HANFORD PATROL SYSTEM

Basic System Description: Safeguards and Security is a key 

Hanford Site infrastructure system. The facilities that support the 

system include the Patrol Operations Center, Patrol Training 

Academy (PTA), Emergency Vehicle Obstacle Course (EVOC) and the 

vehicle access barricades. 

The Safeguards and Security 

program ensures that Hanford 

Site facilities are protected at 

appropriate levels against 

unauthorized access, theft of 

special nuclear material, acts of 

sabotage, theft or loss of 

classified matter and 

government property, and 

other hostile acts that may 

unacceptably affect the 

national security or the health 

and safety of workers, the 

public, or the environment. 

The level of protection is based 

on a graded approach 

determined by the assets 

present. Safeguards and 

Security and Hanford Patrol 

attributes are provided in Table 3-1.

The remaining Hanford Site nuclear materials with high security interest have been consolidated 

into a protected area located near the Canister Storage Building. Hanford Site limited areas will 

continue to be required to support developing, processing, and storing classified matter. Cyber 

security and information security requirements are expected to continue increasing during the 

planning period as a result of technology advancements and world events.

As the Hanford Site transitioned from a nuclear material processing and storage operation to an 

industrial complex, the approach was documented in the Hanford Site Industrial Security Plan

(HNF-49506). Emphasis is being placed on industrial security, to include: Hanford Site access

controls, emergency response, and physical security, as well as material control and accountability, 

information security, personnel security, and protective force. 

Current Condition FY2013:

• Condition in FY2013: Very Good

• Capacity: 12 facilities including 3 barricades, Patrol Operations Center and PTA

• Reliability in FY2013: 100% usable when needed

• Population Served: 10,763

• Areas Served: Entire 586 mi2, except areas under U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) 

surveillance 

• Gaps and Planned Projects – No gaps identified; refer Appendix B for planned projects.

Special nuclear materials will remain onsite during the current planning period necessitating a 

continued level of protection on the Central Plateau. As such, training programs for Hanford Patrol 

will remain strong to maintain a high level of response readiness. The PTA and EVOC provide the 

facilities for implementing the Hanford security training program while also supporting training of 

other local law enforcement agencies. The facilities at the PTA have several identified deficiencies 

that need to be addressed to ensure a safe training environment. The projects to address these 

deficiencies include the following:

• Improved access controls to the firing ranges

• Replace the aging weapons cleaning trailer 

• Upgrades to the live-fire shoot house 

• Habitability improvements in several training classrooms.

In addition to the facility upgrades, efforts have been identified as out year projects to relocate 

firing Range 10. This relocation is in support of repurposing land areas at the southern end of the 

Hanford Site as envisioned in DOE/EIS-0222-F.

End State FY2020:

• Condition: Very Good for facilities, excellent for staff and equipment

• Capacity: 12 facilities including 3 barricades, Patrol Operations Center and PTA

• Population Served: 7,921

• Areas Served: Entire Hanford Site except for areas under surveillance by USFWS

• Gaps and Planned Projects: No gaps identified; management is reviewing facility concerns at 

the PTA, including issues with the PTA general facility, lunchroom, and classrooms (662 and 

662A, respectively), the live-fire shoot house, and the need to study relocating the Range 10 

function at the PTA. The results of that study should be implemented by FY2020.

Cost Savings Proposal: Approximately $150,000 per K-9/Guard upon retirement.

Major Actions/Decisions Needed: Refer to Appendix B for projects descriptions for FY2020. 

Some of the existing HAMMER facilities may be used as part of this agreement.

3.3 FIRE AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE SYSTEM

3.3.1 HANFORD FIRE DEPARTMENT

Basic System Description: Fire and Emergency Response includes 

fire department operations, administration, and training activities; 

fire marshal’s office services; fire protection systems inspection, 

testing, and maintenance; and 

respiratory protection 

maintenance for site powered 

air-purifying respirators. The 

physical system servicing the 

Hanford Site includes fire 

stations in the 100, 200, 300 

and 400 Areas. The emergency 

response vehicle fleet includes 

a mobile incident command 

vehicle, 1 aerial platform truck, 

3 ladder trucks, 2 fire engines, 

1 tender truck, 6 brush trucks, 

4 grass trucks, a hazardous 

materials (HAZMAT) response 

vehicle, and 6 ambulances. 

Attributes for Fire Systems are 

provided in Table 3-2. 

Current Condition FY2013:

• Condition: Very good for 

equipment, staff, and 

facilities except as noted in this report. 

• Capacity: Vehicle fleet at needed capacity

• Reliability: 100% usable when needed

• Population Served: 8,800; includes entire Hanford Site, PNNL campus and PNNL in 300 Area

• Areas Served: Entire Hanford Site plus secondary support to surrounding communities

• Gaps and Planned Projects: No gaps identified; refer to Appendix B for planned projects. 

The Fire and Emergency Response System will go through facility and support reconfiguration as 

the services and projects consolidate to the Central Plateau over the next several years. This 

transition will result in the construction of a new fire station to serve the 200E Area and the closure 

of the stations in the 100, 300 and 400 Areas.

The 100 Area Fire Station will continue to be staffed until the worker populations (MSC for 

B Reactor, CHPRC for the K Areas, and Washington Closure Hanford (WCH) for all other 100 Areas) 

in the northernmost portion of the Hanford Site have been significantly reduced to minimize the 

risk from the increased emergency response times from the 200 Area Fire Station. 

The 200 Area Fire Station will continue operation through FY2050. The station will undergo 

upgrades to support staff and equipment being relocated from the outer areas of the Hanford Site. 

HNF-51858, Hanford Fire Department Fire Infrastructure and Deployment Evaluation Baseline and 

Options, identifies the need for a new fire station adjacent to the WTP before starting WTP 

operation. This station, in conjunction with the existing 200E Fire Station, will be designed to serve 

the long-term fire and emergency response needs for the entire Hanford Site. 

The 300 Area Fire Station, owned by RL and operated by MSA, requires supporting the time 

required for plume cleanup and continued use of the 324 Building. The 300 Area Fire Station is 

expected to be closed after the new Fire Station is built to serve the 200E Area and personnel and 

equipment are consolidated to the Central Plateau. Station habitability upgrades to address aging 

systems remain a priority in the interim. 

The 400 Area Fire Station will be temporarily closed in FY2013 and placed in a minimum-safe 

surveillance and maintenance (S&M) mode until reactivated (if warranted) to support the final 

disposition of the residual sodium contained in the Fast Flux Test Facility (FFTF) system and 

storage facility. Personnel and equipment will be relocated to the existing fire stations in the 200 

and 300 Areas and will be deployed as necessary to support fire and medical emergency response 

for those facilities that are served by the 400 Area Fire Station.

Obsolescence of equipment is driving the need to replace the radio fire alarm reporting system. 

This critical system provides fire alarm reporting from multiple facilities/buildings throughout the 

Hanford Site to the Hanford Fire dispatch center. Core system components are being replaced in 

FY2013 with peripheral components slated for upgrade over the next several years. While 

replacement intervals for the emergency response vehicle fleet have been increasing over the past 

several years, a refresh of the ambulance fleet was completed in FY2013. Equipment priorities to 

support mission needs over the next few years include replacing or refurbishing the mobile 

incident command vehicle, replacing two pumper trucks, two aerial telesquirts and replacing the 

HAZMAT response vehicle. 

End State FY2020:

Two fire stations, including one new fire station located to serve the Central Plateau, will centralize 

fire and emergency support for the safety mission at the Central Plateau.

• Condition: Excellent for equipment, staff, and facilities as noted in this report

• Capacity: Vehicle fleet at needed capacity

• Population Served: 6,693; includes entire Hanford Site, PNNL campus and PNNL in 300 Area

• Area(s) Served: Entire Hanford Site

• Gaps and Planned Projects: No gaps identified; no major projects for facilities after FY2020. 

Equipment replacements will continue as required and as scheduled.

Cost Savings Proposals: Facility consolidation from four to three, then to two stations to meet 

RL’s footprint reduction strategy, represents a major cost savings opportunity over the next 7 years 

and beyond for annual operating expense budgets.

Major Actions/Decisions Needed: Fund defined projects.

Roadmap: Refer to Figure 3-2.

3.3.2 EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Basic System Description: The Emergency Management Program 

provides coordination, integration, and maintenance of a 

centralized emergency operations capability for coping with a 

spectrum of emergencies originating from or affecting the Hanford 

Site. This integrated program ensures Emergency Management can

respond effectively and efficiently to emergencies so that 

appropriate measures are taken to protect workers, the public, the 

environment, and preserve the credibility to the DOE. Coordinating 

with OHCs ensures that emergencies are promptly recognized, 

categorized, and classified with the required reporting and 

notifications. Emergency 

Management includes 

managing the Hanford Site 

Emergency Management 

Program and the Emergency 

Operations Center (EOC), 

contractor emergency 

management support, 

assessments, site-wide 

occurrence reporting, and 

operating the 24/7 EOC Shift 

Office. Attributes for 

Emergency Management are

3.4 VOLPENTEST HAMMER TRAINING FACILITY

Basic System Description: The HAMMER training facility is an 

88-acre complex that provides realistic, hands-on, standardized 

training to Hanford Site workers, national and international 

emergency responders and homeland security personnel to develop 

and maintain the knowledge and skills that will enable these 

workers to safely complete their assigned missions. The unique 

approach to training combines the use of peer worker trainers, 

standardized lesson plans, and props to realistically simulate 

working conditions that may be encountered in the field. 

HAMMER’s mission reflects DOE’s need to train workers and 

support personnel to safely and effectively perform the cleanup of 

the Hanford Site. 

HAMMER/Hanford Site 

training focuses on the 

Occupational Safety and 

Health, Radiological, 

Emergency Operations and 

Response, Environmental 

and Waste Management, Fire 

Operations, and Law 

Enforcement programs. 

HAMMER’s attributes are 

provided in Table 3-4.

HAMMER began as a 

community-based and labor 

initiative to improve training 

for hazardous materials 

workers, emergency 

responders, and firefighters. 

HAMMER provides the 

primary Environmental 

Restoration and Waste 

Management training facility 

for the Hanford Site. 

HAMMER also serves DOEHeadquarters (DOE-HQ) and other federal, local, state, regional, and national agencies’ needs. As a 

federally-owned facility, HAMMER is uniquely situated to serve the federal government in 

expanding roles. Using government-to-government funding mechanisms, HAMMER has expanded 

its clientele and is currently fully equipped to support an additional federal scope in the areas of 

domestic preparedness and emergency response missions. HAMMER has the ability to perform this 

scope under the DOE Work for Others program in support of other federal agencies customers. As 

the Hanford Site cleanup mission is completed, HAMMER’s missions are expected to shift toward 

supporting new Hanford Site missions and additional external agency scope, which will infuse

additional non-EM financial support. HAMMER anticipates increased facility use for WTP 

operations staffing needs during the period FY2017 to FY2022.

General equipment available to meet training needs includes cranes, forklifts, simulators, and 

compressors. All equipment is in fair to good condition and meets current use needs. The 

HAMMER/Hanford training facilities consist of 153,251 ft2 in 21 buildings with classrooms 

supporting training courses featuring computer-based and web-based training, conference rooms, a 

cafeteria, the Hanford safety library, warehouse facilities, storage and office spaces.

Current Condition FY2013:

• Condition: Good - normal aging for 15-year old facilities and equipment

• Facility Utilization Capacity: Approximately 5,000 class sessions

• Reliability: 100% available when needed, except during times of wildfires, planned repair 

closure or extreme temperatures

• Population Served: 11,000

• Areas Served: Entire Hanford Site including multiple non-Hanford customers

• Gaps and Planned Projects: No gaps identified; refer to Appendix B for planned projects. 

HAMMER staff developed a Facility Upgrade Plan that describes facility development necessary to 

support the implementation of HAMMER's mission and vision. This plan identifies facility 

modifications, infrastructure expansion, new facilities, and training props that are needed to 

support Hanford Site cleanup, future operations of the WTP, and growing new missions. DOE 

funded upgrades are provided in the IRPPL (Appendix B).

This plan also supports HAMMER's readiness to serve emerging Hanford Site health and safety 

issues such as Beryllium and Fall Protection programs. Initiatives in this plan will position 

HAMMER to continue to support Hanford Site contractors as well as expanding to support non-EM 

funded training such as National Guard Bureau Civil Support Teams, Federal Law Enforcement 

Training Center, U.S. Department of State training, and regional U.S. Department of Homeland 

Security training. This expansion will benefit the Hanford Site through exchange of best practices, 

costs sharing of new facilities, and the availability of a nationally recognized training industry in the 

Tri-Cities.

End State FY2020:

Reductions in the Hanford Site Central Plateau workforce will be offset by growth in the WTP from 

FY2017 to FY2022.

• Condition: Good - 22-year old facilities and equipment

• Projected Facility Utilization Capacity: Approximately 5,000 class sessions

• Gaps and Planned Projects: Refer to Appendix D for gaps and Appendix B for planned projects.

In accordance with the Analytical Services Master Plan (HNF-44283) dated May 2013, the WSCF will 

continue to have an active mission to support Hanford cleanup activities well beyond the FY2020 

planning horizon. While annual sample volumes are currently forecasted to slowly decrease 

between FY2014 and FY2020, the laboratory facilities and infrastructure will need to remain at a 

high level of reliability and availability to provide timely sample analysis results in support of 

cleanup project schedules.

Several of the critical support systems of the main laboratory are scheduled for capital 

improvements or replacement in order to continue to meet laboratory attributes and end states. 

The control system for the HVAC is being replaced to eliminate reliability and obsolescence issues 

associated with the original equipment and is expected to be completed in FY2014. Additional 

investments are planned to address vulnerabilities to laboratory operations from design 

deficiencies in the laboratory air intake and obsolescence in the laboratory electrical distribution 

system. Replacements also are planned for the aging deionized water skid and the sample 

refrigerators that support the analytical processes.

While the WSCF will be required to maintain a high level of readiness to support ongoing cleanup 

projects, the reduction in forecasted sample volumes will allow for overall footprint reduction. 

Four separate buildings within the WSCF are anticipated to be deactivated and decommissioned 

between FY2014 and FY2017. These include Building 6266A, Liquid Waste Retention Vault, and 

Mobile Offices MO-188, MO-280, and MO-185.

End State FY2020:

• Condition: Fair

• Capacity: Refer to WSCF Master Plan Report FY2013

• Reliability: 99% available when demanded, except during planned and unplanned facility 

outages (wildfires, HVAC service or unit failure)

• Population Served: 12,900

• Area(s) Served: Entire Hanford Site

• Gaps and Planned Projects: Refer to Appendix D for gaps and Appendix B for planned projects.

3.6 TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM

Basic System Description: The transportation system consists of 

roads and rail systems and related topics including transit, ride 

sharing and commuter vans. Over the past 20 years, the traffic 

volume and system capacity to handle the Hanford Site traffic 

volume have remained relatively constant. Several factors affect 

traffic volume, primarily reflected in the rate of 87% of vehicles 

making Single Occupancy Vehicle (SOV) trips. Site-wide SOV use is 

up for several reasons, including eliminating the Hanford Site bus 

system formerly used by a large number of full-time federal 

employees in earlier years, and increase of contractor personnel 

and equipment to conduct cleanup activities widely dispersed 

across the entire Hanford Site. 

In addition, B-Reactor site 

tours via bus added 8,000 

visitors in FY2012. Bus tours 

continued in FY2013. 

Roads on the Hanford Site are 

classified as:

• “open” - paved to meet 

long-term site needs 

• “restricted” - minimal use, 

no major maintenance 

expected to be performed. 

The specific roads that are of 

high priority include core roads 

designated in the 200 Areas, 

Routes 4S, 11A and 2S. Core 

roads have been selected to not conflict with any known and planned future road removals for 

Central Plateau cleanup including any existing facility expansions. Attributes for Transportation 

Systems are provided in Table 3-6.

Current Condition FY2013:

Lifecycle improvement is ensured through the process of identifying and analyzing alternative 

concepts based on user requirements and consistent with DOE O 413.3B, Program and Project 

Management for the Acquisition of Capital Assets.

maintenance, or weather events preventing safe use

Maintainability 

• Maintain roads to maximize the flexibility to support the 

short-term and long-term Hanford Site mission goals

• Refurbish and maintain site core roads based on the usage 

and duration of the need to support the site mission 

• Maintain roads using a graded approach based on lifecycle 

usage

• Maintain a road system for personnel and movement of 

materials and waste.

• Implement strategies from the site-wide Maintenance 

Management Program.

3-23 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

• Condition: In FY2013, 396 lane miles of existing Hanford Site roads were maintained by MSA. 

43 lane miles are in “restricted” status while an additional 75 lane miles are classified as “poor” 

condition based on national standards. Recent upgrades to selected 200 Area and 600 Area 

roads improved the condition of some of these core road routes. Additional pavement 

management projects are necessary to halt overall system deterioration. Conducting traffic 

counts, traffic projections, and condition surveys as an ongoing activity is important to ensure 

that prioritizing road projects yields funded projects that extend road lifecycle to the end state 

years needed for the overall Hanford mission.

• Capacity in FY2013: Route 4S between the WYE Barricade and the Central Plateau is the critical 

restriction point of the Hanford road network. Significant traffic congestion and traffic speed 

reductions occur when traffic volumes approach 1,200 vehicles/hour in one direction on this 

segment of roadway. This would result in a theoretical 24-hour capacity of approximately 

28,000 vehicles in each direction. The average peak-hour traffic counts in June 2012 were 

1,066 in the morning and 981 in the afternoon, Monday through Thursday. The average daily 

traffic in both directions for this period was 5,712 vehicles.

• Reliability: 99% usable when needed; except during wildfires, maintenance, or weather events 

preventing safe use.

• Population Served: 8,455

• Gaps and Planned Projects: No gaps identified; refer to Appendix B for planned projects. 

The following summarizes the facilities, agreements, cleanup, and LTS trends affecting roads, 

arranged by major area:

100 Area: All 100 Area roads will become eligible for restricted status as the area transitions to 

LTS. The 100K Area is expected to remain in a cleanup status beyond FY2020. Access roads to 

100K will remain in open paved status. 

200 Area: It is envisioned that the 200 Area roads will be the main focus for maintenance and use. 

Major factors influencing road requirements on the Central Plateau include the number of WTP 

administrative support staff required to report to the WTP site daily, ORP office presence at the 

WTP vicinity, and rebaselining of the WTP schedule transition to operations. Figure 3-6 shows the 

200 Area core roads that are long-term priority routes.

300 Area: Based on current use agreements allowing DOE-PNSO and PNNL use of several RL 

owned buildings continuing through FY2026 and beyond, roads are anticipated to remain classified 

as open paved. A condition assessment of the 300 Area roads to support long-term operations 

needs to be completed in FY2015 or FY2016. Refer to Figure 3-7 for the 300 Area roads and facility 

locations.

400 Area: Access to the 400 Area will continue for the foreseeable future. Although the Fleet 

Maintenance Shop and 400 Area Fire Station are closing, CHPRC will continue to operate several 

separate facilities, including the Maintenance and Storage Facility. Also, final disposition of FFTF 

will dictate future road requirements. 

600, 700, and 1100 Areas: No impacts to roads. No actions for restricted status are needed. The 

entire 1100 Area is within the Richland Urban Growth Boundary (UGB). In the 600 Area north of 

Route 11A, roads will be placed in restricted status as shown in Figure 3-8.

HAMMER Site: Planning and maintenance for Hanford Site roads including HAMMER and the PTA 

are completed by the facility. The entire HAMMER area is within the Richland UGB, any roads 

serving HAMMER will become city streets on full annexation. MSA maintains all the roads within 

3-24 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

the HAMMER facility, including the access road from the Cold Test Facility to PTA, and the EVOC. 

Maintenance includes, but is not limited to, asphalt patching, sweeping, and snow removal.

End State FY2020:

New traffic lanes will not be added to Route 4S between the WYE Barricade and the Central Plateau. 

Road condition would be considered “fair.” The traffic forecasts should be reduced from FY2015 

levels due to a projected decrease in Hanford Site population and a further decrease in the 

percentage of SOVs. The peak hour traffic volumes will depend on what variations in shift start and 

end times exist at that time. Anticipated SOV levels will be 80% for all trips. Some form of transit 

service will continue, most likely via Benton Franklin Transit, primarily to meet air-quality, fuelconsumption, and greenhouse-gas-emission standards. Figure 3-8 shows the open paved roads and 

restrictions.

• Condition: Fair for most roads with approximately 15% in poor condition.

• Capacity: Route 4S between the WYE Barricade and the Central Plateau will remain as the 

critical capacity restriction point of the Hanford road network assuming that additional traffic 

lanes are not constructed. Significant traffic congestion and traffic speed reductions occur 

when traffic volumes approach 1,200 vehicles/hour in one direction on this segment of 

roadway. Based on the population forecast below and the anticipation of a lower percentage of 

SOVs, the average daily traffic on Route 4S between the WYE Barricade and the Central Plateau 

is expected to reduce to approximately 4,000. The peak hour traffic volumes will depend on 

what variations in shift start and end times exist at that time. 

• Reliability: 99% usable when needed, except during wildfires, maintenance or weather events 

preventing safe use. 

• Population Served: 6,343

• Areas Served: Primarily Central Plateau area with restricted roads in outlying areas

• Gaps and Planned Projects: Refer to Appendix D for gaps and Appendix B for planned projects.

Cost Savings Proposals: Two cost savings proposals validated during the ISAP process in FY2013 

merit further study to meet the FY2015, FY2020, and FY2070 mission end states:

• Ensure the remote area road restriction list matches the LTS schedule for 100, 300 and 

400 Area closures and conveyances. Converting remote roads to a stabilized surface might be 

part of any land conveyances for Department of Interior agencies, based on the merit of such 

conversion on a case-by-case basis. This is a future opportunity with minimal cost savings for 

roads that may be repurposed. 

• Elimination of major maintenance on Routes 11A (east of the Central Plateau) and 2S following 

construction of the WTP. Deferring long-term maintenance on these roads is estimated to 

significantly reduce lifecycle costs for vehicle access to the Central Plateau. 

Figure 3-6 shows the 200E Area and 200W Area alignment and locations of the core roads of the 

transportation system. Figure 3-8 shows the status of the transportation system. Appendix F 

provides more detail for transportation system cost savings introduced but not fully scoped, 

estimated, or validated during FY2013. Core roads are designated primary routes for long-range 

planning that are consistent with long-term cleanup plans and future uses, particularly in the 

200 Areas where many changes will occur over long periods of years eliminating certain routes 

currently available.

Major Actions/Decisions Needed: Refer to the actions described earlier, and Appendix B for 

projects. Refer to Appendix F for cost savings measures.

3.7 ELECTRICAL TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM’S ELECTRICITY SUPPLY

Basic Description of System: The Hanford Site has 52 miles of 230

kilovolts (kV) transmission line, 160 miles of 13.8kV aerial lines, 15 

miles of underground lines and 5 primary substations. The 

condition of the system in FY2013 and the needs for the FY2020 end 

state are discussed for each of the following major substations:

• Substation 251-W (A-8) currently serves the Central Plateau

• Substation 251-E (A-6) serves the WTP 

• Substation 151-KE (A-9) serves the 100 Area

• Substation 351 (B3-S4) serves the 300 Area

• Substation 451-B (B5-S2) serves the 400 Area.

The overall electrical transmission and distribution systems have 

provided reliable power to the Hanford Site from the 1940’s until 

the present. Significant 

upgrades have been defined 

to meet future mission 

requirements for FY2020. 

The upgrades are necessary 

to support new loads needed 

by the waste feed delivery 

system in the 200 Areas to 

support the WTP. 

Attributes for Electrical 

Systems are provided in 

Table 3-7.

In 2007, DOE became subject 

to the Energy Policy Act of 

2005 (EPAct 2005) 

mandatory compliance with 

electric reliability standards. 

The Hanford Site electric 

transmission system is part of 

the national and regional 

electric power grid. The 

EPAct 2005 requires integrity 

to prevent disruptions to the 

electric grid system. DOE is 

subject to monetary penalties and sanctions for failure to comply with these requirements.

Electrical system capacities, by substation, are documented in the Electrical Master Plan. Hanford 

Site electrical demand is projected at 74 megawatts (MW) by FY2019. In FY2012, about 40MW of 

electrical power support is required for specific mission activities. Approximately 95% of the 

power is purchased directly from the BPA. About 5% is supplied directly from the City of Richland 

to facilities in North Richland (HAMMER, PTA, etc.). LIGO receives power from the Benton County

Public Utility District via a distribution line from the Hanford 451-B (B5-S2) Substation in the 

400 Area. 

Current Condition FY2013:

100 Area Electrical: The aging 151-KW (A-7) Substation was replaced with a skid-mounted

substation built as part of the K Basin cleanup project to enable further remediation to occur. The

new Substation, 151-KE (A-9), became operational in FY2011 and is designated for removal from 

service in FY2018 as the 100 Area needs are eliminated by cleanup and closures. 

The forecasted demand for the 100 Area is 3MW in FY2013 and FY2016. The substation is planned 

for removal in FY2018. The major long-term load in the 100 Area is supporting water pumping to 

the 200 Area, and pump-and-treat activities for groundwater.

The 230kV transmission line sections from the 100 Area Fire Station to 100D Area is in need of 

repair. The armor rod that suspends the lines has exceeded its life and needs replacement to 

prevent the lines from falling. 

100B and 100D Area were bypassed with new 230kV lines sections to support field remediation. 

Additionally, 100D and 100H Area 13.8kV lines were rerouted to support this effort.

200 Area Electrical (Central Plateau Area: 251-E (A-6) and 251-W (A-8) Substations): The 

251-E (A-6) Substation was constructed to serve the WTP. Demand on the 251-E (A-6) Substation is 

forecasted to be 3MW in FY2014; growing to 10MW in FY2016; continuing to increase to 42MW in 

FY2019 once WTP starts operation; and then increases to 51MW in FY2020. Demand on the 251-W 

(A-8) Substation is anticipated to be 31MW in FY2013 but will diminish to 27MW by FY2017 and 

return to 30MW by FY2019. The 27MW demand in FY2016 includes picking up the remaining load 

from the 100 Area (2MW) once K Basin sludge removal is complete. 

A significant upgrade to the 251-W (A-8) Substation and 200E electrical system will be required to 

support waste feed delivery from the tank farms to the WTP. This upgrade is a critical prerequisite 

for startup of waste feed to the WTP. In addition, it has been determined that Institute of Electrical 

and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 765, Standard for Preferred Power Supply for Nuclear Power 

Generating Stations, is applicable to the Hanford electrical system feeding the WTP. This standard, 

which requires redundant and physically independent offsite electrical sources, will drive 

significant changes to the electrical supply to WTP. Decisions are needed on how to best implement 

this standard with other forecasted electrical needs of the WTP. 

300 Area Electrical: The 351 (B3-S4) Substation will be removed from service in FY2015 after the 

service to permanent facilities in the 300 Area is transitioned to the City of Richland in FY2014. 

The temporary deactivation and decommissioning (D&D) facilities in the 300 Area (less than 1MW) 

will be served from the 451-B (B5-S2) Substation in FY2015. 

Demand on the 351 (B3-S4) Substation is projected to be 4MW in FY2013, but will drop to less than 

1MW in FY2014 when the City of Richland takes over, so the remaining temporary load may be 

served from the 400 Area or alternative means such as generators or solar panels.

400 Area Electrical: The 451-B (B5-S2) Substation was built in the early 1980s. The 400 Area 

demand is anticipated to be 2MW in FY2013 and increase to 4MW in FY2015 from LIGO (1MW 

increase) and picking up the remaining load from the 300 Area (less than 1MW), so that the 

351 (B3-S4) Substation can be removed from service. The 451-B (B5-S2) Substation is predicted to 

be eventually transferred to another local utility. The 451-B (B5-S2) Substation will remain in 

service until further consideration is given to sustain ongoing operations at LIGO. 

3-32 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

The planned vs. actual closure dates for 400 Area require RL decisions predicated on funding all 

component facility moves and demolition required to reduce electrical demand to zero by FY2019.

End State FY2020:

To meet the FY2020 end state, the equipment will be operating at a peak demand of 81MW and 

maintained in fair condition.

• Condition: Fair overall, with a few major components in poor condition because of age

• Capacity: 110MW

• Reliability: Metric is unavailable, expected to be developed by 2013

• Population Served: 6,200. PNNL campus includes 4,000 employees and 100 employees in the 

300 Area; electrical service to PNNL and the remaining buildings in the 300 Area are serviced 

by the City of Richland

• Areas Served: Entire Hanford Site excluding HAMMER and PTA

• Gaps and Planned Projects: No gaps identified; refer to Appendix B for planned projects.

Cost Savings Proposals: $5M for defined energy savings proposals with 10 to 15 year payback. 

Refer to Appendix F.

Major Actions/Decisions Needed: Determine appropriate path to implement IEEE 765 

requirements for the offsite power feeding the WTP. Refer to Appendix E.

3.8 WATER SYSTEM

Basic System Description: The Water System consists of one water 

treatment plant for potable water; over 104 miles of water lines 

serve more than 300 raw and potable water service connections; 

and two pump houses, one each at 181B and 181D, drawing water 

from the Columbia River and pumped to the respective 25-milliongallon reservoir in 182B or 182D area. (Note: The 182D reservoir is 

restricted to 5.25-million-gallon storage capacity due to 

deteriorated condition.) The water is then pumped from the 

reservoirs to the 200 Area and other end users in the 100B/C, 100D, 

100F, 100H and 100K areas by the 182B and 182D export water 

pumps. The 200 Areas have over 50 miles of in-ground distribution 

lines. Each 200 Area has a 3-million-gallon raw water reservoir and 

a 1.1-million-gallon potable water storage tank required for fire 

protection capacity. 

The 200E Area and 200W Area raw 

and potable water fire protection 

systems are currently being 

modified to supply all 200 Area fire 

protection water from the 

1.1-million-gallon potable water 

storage tanks and converting the 

raw water reservoirs to strictly 

process water storage and supply. 

The 283-W water treatment facility 

produces potable water from raw 

water for distribution throughout 

both 200 Areas. The City of 

Richland supplies water to the 300 

Area, 700 Area, HAMMER, and 

other DOE facilities adjacent to 

Horn Rapids Road (e.g., PTA, ORP 

test facilities). The 400 Area is 

supplied by a well located in the 

400 Area. The 300 Area and 400 

Area water systems are operated 

and maintained by OHCs. 

Attributes for Water Systems are

HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

Current Condition FY2013:

• Condition: Fair to Good

• Capacity: Refer to earlier text description.

• Reliability: 99% usable when needed, except for pipe breaks and planned service shutdowns

• Population Served: 5,130

• Areas Served: 100 Areas, Central Plateau.

• Gaps and Planned Projects: Refer to Appendix D for gaps, Appendix B for planned projects and 

Appendix E for decisions needed. The significant projects include the Central Plateau water 

system upgrade in late stage construction in FY2013. Predesign planning for a planned river 

pump station upgrade project in the 100 Areas (convert to variable speed motors, disconnect 

two reservoirs) requires funding and authorization to begin. The Maintenance Management 

Program, based on a priority analysis, was defined during FY2013 to define the path forward 

for the aging water system. 

Some of the Hanford Site in-ground pipelines used for water delivery have deteriorated to the point 

that replacing or relining the pipe is required to protect the environment and continue performing 

the Hanford Site cleanup mission. Numerous water line breaks occurred during FY2012 requiring 

unbudgeted, unplanned emergency repairs. Relining pipelines is a continual process that occurs as 

funding is available. Additionally, laterals that are no longer needed are being capped and isolated 

from the system as project work is completed.

The age of the existing water supply systems on the Central Plateau has generated concern about 

the overall system’s reliability and its ability to meet WTP needs during commissioning, plus 40 

years of operation. Emphasis is needed to address the current system age. 

Recently, the large mechanical and automated equipment that make up the water system, including 

pumps, valves, computers, and instrumentation, have been closely monitored. Some components 

are 50+ years old, requiring extensive maintenance in recent years. The components are being 

refurbished or replaced to increase system reliability on a priority and failure basis. In addition, 

increased emphasis has been placed on shrinking the Hanford Site water system’s footprint by 

upgrading only those portions that have a long-term mission plus running other components to the 

end of useful life. Because of the deteriorated condition of the 182D reservoir and marginal system 

performance, the 2011 Export Water System Options study recommends bypassing the 182D 

reservoir, pumping straight into the plateau reservoirs and reconfiguring the Central Plateau 

3-million-gallon raw water reservoirs. The net impact of the proposed actions will be to improve 

overall system reliability, support decommissioning of the 182D facility, and allow future waste 

stream treatment needs to be met. Central Plateau improvements are scheduled to be completed in 

FY2013, while direct pump installation for the 100D Area is scheduled for FY2017.

Incorporating a closed-loop condenser water system on the 242-A Evaporator facility should be 

evaluated after funding is allocated for a design study. This facility is one of the Hanford Site’s 

largest raw water consumers when in operation. The closed-loop system would help meet the 

Hanford Site’s sustainability goal of a 20% decrease in raw water consumption by FY2020.

Potable water demand will increase from approximately 50,000 gal/day in FY2011 to over 

60,000 gal/day in FY2020 and beyond. The increase is caused primarily by operation of the WTP 

facility at 1,200 gal/min, 2,500 gal/min for fire flows, and a potable water flow volume including 

3-40 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

demands totaling 950 gal/min plus other demands. The potable water demand flows include the 

following:

• Balance of Facilities cooling tower

• Domestic water makeup

• Cooling water makeup.

End State FY2020:

Raw and export water system capacity will be excellent. The raw and export water system 

condition will be fair. The export water demand forecasts are for 15,600 gal/min onsite, primarily 

pumped to and treated on the Central Plateau. The raw water capacity is 16,500 gal/min. The 

potable water system capacity will be excellent and potable system condition will be fair. The 

potable water demand forecast is for 1,950 gal/min onsite, primarily on the Central Plateau, 

excluding storage tanks and clear wells. The planned FY2018 water system master plan update will 

describe the water system that will exist in FY2020, with reliability and capacity assured by the 

FY2013 Maintenance Management Program.

• Condition: Excellent

• Capacity: Fair

• Reliability: 99% usable when needed

• Population Served: 4,650

• Areas Served: 100 Areas, Central Plateau. WCH owns, operates, and maintains the 300 Area 

water system. Over the next several years, the water system will be transferred back to RL, and 

subsequently transferred to MSA to maintain. Alternatively, all affected parties, including 

DOE-PNSO and PNNL, may discuss with the City of Richland the possibility of taking 

responsibility of the 300 Area water system. 

• Gaps and Planned Projects: Refer to Appendix D for gaps and Appendix B for planned projects. 

Cost Savings Proposals: As summarized in Appendix F, the cost savings, innovations, and quality 

improvements for the water system are described as follows:

• Single vs. Dual Water System. A cost savings proposal may result from a study of converting 

from a dual water system to a single water system wherever possible. The concept is not yet 

budgeted or scoped to provide either a 100% potable or a 100% raw water system that uses 

small decentralized water treatment plants to deliver water from the Columbia River to the 

Central Plateau. The decentralized water treatment plants would use one of the best two of the 

four water treatment processes previously studied. 

• Water Treatment Method Change. The largest areas of potential cost savings include reducing 

the number of miles of pipe being maintained, reducing energy costs for pumping water, and 

eliminating gas chlorination and the current chlorine gas alarm and safety requirements. 

Elimination of and implementation of an alternative disinfection method is identified and 

planned by Project L-679 for FY2019.

• Remote Area Water Strategy –Consolidate Demand. Isolated water connections at the end 

of a long run of pipe are good candidates for facility demolition. The primary cost savings 

would result from reducing costs to maintain water pipes for small loads to entire areas that 

can be fully closed for water demand at distances far from the main system serving the core of 

the Central Plateau Area.

• Remote Small Building Water Strategy - Eliminate Sources of Demand. In conjunction with 

the findings of the 2012 Facility Master Plan (FMP) report for general-purpose buildings, start a 

3-41 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

program to remove small buildings and disconnect and abandon water piping distribution 

systems where feasible. 

• New Buildings Strategy – Reduce Reliance on Existing Water Utilities. The Leadership in 

Energy and Environmental Design2 (LEED) new construction proposals are required to 

consider alternative water sources for each new building rather than assume the existing water 

system will provide 100% of the new water demand. Examples of high-performance watersaving measures at federal facilities in arid locations designed to LEED Gold certification 

include storm water capture, storage tanks, rainwater storage, gray-water processing, and 

treatment by filtration, and reduced-flow water fixtures to avoid 100% reliance on piped-water 

systems.

Major Actions/Decisions Needed: Refer to Appendix E.

Roadmap: Refer to Figure 3-11.

3.9 SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM

Basic System Description: 60 active subsurface soil absorption 

systems (drain fields) serve the Hanford Site. 24 of these are 

permitted through the Washington State Department of Health 

(WDOH). 36 systems are not permitted that were constructed 

before July 1, 1984. Although drain field use is allowed onsite, 

the WDOH agency will not allow new connections or 

modifications to these existing systems unless each drain field is updated to current permit 

standards. 

In addition to the permitted and 

non-permitted sewer systems 

throughout the Hanford Site, 

10 WDOH-permitted temporary 

holding tanks and 1 nonpermitted holding tank are being 

used. The permitted holding 

tanks are underground tanks 

placed throughout the Hanford 

Site as required to meet the need 

for sanitary sewer systems 

where project life or other 

circumstances do not justify a 

full subsurface soil absorption 

system. 

The 200W Area Lagoon 

Treatment System, a new aerated 

evaporative lagoon on the north 

side of the 200W Area, was 

commissioned in August 2012. 

This new Lagoon Treatment 

System eliminated the need for the 100N Area sewage lagoon, which was demolished by the River 

Corridor Contractor. The 200W Lagoon Treatment System is a long-term treatment solution 

adaptable to changing conditions as facilities are decommissioned. Attributes for Sanitary Sewer 

Systems are provided in Table 3-9.

Current Condition FY2013:

• Condition: Excellent for 200W Lagoon, poor for part of the piped system (24-inch line failing) 

and fair for part of the piped system (40-inch line), fair for pump stations. For the 400 Area, 

drain fields and tanks site wide, refer to earlier text.

• Capacity: 120,000 gal/day disposed through 60 drain fields, 206 facilities pumped and trucked 

to the 200W Area Lagoon Treatment System. 

• Reliability: 99% usable when needed

• Population Served: 5,130

• Areas Served: Entire Hanford Site, except HAMMER, PTA, 300 Area, PNNL, ENW, LIGO, US 

Ecology, BPA, and City of Richland

The demand driver for sanitary liquid waste systems is the onsite workforce population, which is 

expected to transition from 5,130 in FY2013 to 4,650 in FY2020. As cleanup progresses and the 

workforce population decreases over the next 7 years, the amount of sanitary liquid waste will 

decrease. 

No large onsite septic system can be abandoned until all buildings connected to that system have 

been closed and disconnected from the water and sewer services. Likewise, holding tanks must be 

serviced regularly until the facilities they support are closed and disconnected from the tanks. 

Consequently, although the footprint shrinks, the existing drain fields are among the last support 

utilities to be shut down or removed.

The 200E and 200W Areas are served by 38 onsite septic tank soil absorption systems with many 

systems having operated for nearly 40 years. Several systems are not functioning properly and 

some have failed. The majority of the 200 Area facilities have been tied into regional, permitted 

septic systems.

The 300 Area is served by one process water treatment facility, the Treated Effluent Disposal 

Facility, owned by RL that does not treat sanitary sewer waste.

The 400 Area exit and closure strategy relies on the transition away from using ENW’s Columbia 

Generating Site’s system for the 400 Area.

The 600 Area is served by 11 septic tank systems, 4 holding tanks, and 2 lift stations. 10 of the 17 

systems have been in service for a long time yet are not permitted, and each system is considered 

functional, but nonconforming. Current state regulations do not allow the 10 existing 

nonconforming systems to be repaired or modified. Upon the eventual successive failures of each 

of the 10 systems, each system will require remediation and/or full replacement; however, the 10 

nonconforming systems are expected to remain in service for the foreseeable future.

End State FY2020:

Sewer system capacity will be considered excellent and sewer system condition will be considered 

fair. The projected site-wide peak demand of 75,840 gal/day will be met by the permitted 200W 

Lagoon Treatment System capacity of 55,000 gal/day and the 38 onsite septic tanks. The 200E 

sewage systems will be connected to the 200W Lagoon Treatment System by one of the options 

described in HNF-6612, Hanford Site Sanitary Sewer Master Plan. Reliability of the overall system 

will approach 100% with new and recently built facilities in 200E and 200W Areas serving most of 

the facilities generating sanitary sewer loads. Trucking from remote sites may be one truck/day or 

less depending on system loading. 

• Condition: Excellent for 200W Lagoon, fair for the piped system, fair for pump stations. For 

drain fields and tanks see earlier text description

• Capacity: 75,840 gal/day met by ground and central system

• Reliability: 99% usable when needed

• Population Served: 4,650

• Areas Served: Entire Hanford Site, except HAMMER, PTA, 300 Area, PNNL, ENW, LIGO, US 

Ecology, BPA, and City of Richland

• Gaps and Planned Projects: No gaps identified; refer to Appendix B for planned projects and 

Appendix E for decisions needed.

3-46 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

Cost Savings Proposals: As summarized in Appendix F, the cost savings, innovations, and quality 

improvements for the sanitary sewer system are described as follows: 

• Remote Area Sewer Strategy – Reduce Trucking and pump outs, Consolidate Demand. 

Isolated sanitary sewer loads at the end of a long run of pipe are good candidates for 

demolition, consolidating General Purpose Facilities and eliminating low-level occupancy 

facilities. The first type of long-term cost savings would result from reducing costs to maintain 

sanitary sewer pipes for small loads at remote distances from the main system trunk sewer line 

that eventually will serve the core area of the Central Plateau. The second type of immediate 

cost savings proposal for sanitary sewer for existing buildings with tanks or failing drain fields 

is to reduce and consolidate the number of pump-outs to a daily volume that can be serviced by 

one truck with a two-member crew instead of the five staff members currently required. MSA 

will accomplish both by a combination of conversions at facilities from existing pumped tanks 

to piped conveyance to the 200W lagoon and eliminating existing buildings as part of the 

planned demolition process. The overall goal is reduced sanitary sewer footprint to help create 

the net long-term cost benefit, not by transferring the work scope (pumping out existing tanks) 

to another contractor.

• Remote Small Building Sewer Strategy - Eliminate Sources of Demand. In conjunction with 

the sustainability strategy for metering and analyzing general-purpose buildings energy and 

water performance and making selective upgrades, start a program to identify and remove 

small buildings where long runs of sanitary sewer pipes can be removed (pipes from an existing 

building to a drain field or a tank now being pumped).

• New Buildings Strategy – Reduce Reliance on Existing Sewer Utilities. Also part of the 

overall sustainability strategy, LEED new construction proposals are required to consider 

alternative water sources for each major new building (over $5M in value), rather than assume 

the existing sanitary sewer system will provide 100% of the new sanitary sewer load for all new 

buildings. Examples of high-performance wastewater-saving measures at federal facilities in 

arid locations designed to LEED Gold or Platinum levels include storm water capture, storage 

tanks, gray-water processing and treatment by filtration and use of reduced-flow water fixtures 

by design to avoid up to 100% reliance on sanitary sewer utilities systems.

3.10 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURE

Basic System Description: The Hanford Site Information Technology (IT) telecommunications 

infrastructure is required to support the movement and management of 

voice, data, and imaging information over wired and wireless 

infrastructures. The IT infrastructure that supports the software 

applications and systems to collect, process, store, manage and move 

information across the 

enterprise consists of four 

major components:

• Facilities (buildings, 

enclosures, towers, 

huts, and the associated 

uninterrupted power 

supplies, backup 

generators, and HVAC 

systems)

• Outside plant (fiber and copper cabling systems)

• Wireless transport systems (radio, cellular, and wireless voice, data, and imaging transports)

• Network and telecommunication systems (equipment, operating software, and management 

tools to maintain performance).

Technology is in a continuous state of change; therefore, maintaining an IT infrastructure in a 

steady-state condition will make it obsolete within a few years. An outdated network increases the 

vulnerability to security threats, prolonged outages, and IT resources being available to support 

merging business requirements. The IT infrastructure and resources must remain reliable in order 

to meet the demands of cleanup activities and WTP operations. The Hanford Site’s IT infrastructure

Site. There are 19 contractors 

executing work on the Hanford Site; 

however, MSA only provides 

Information Services to 7 of the 19 

contractors. The workforce for the 

7 contractors supported by MSA is 

approximately 5,900 and projected 

to grow to 6,100 by FY2015 and 

7,200 by FY2020 (Figure 3-13). The 

ratio of office workers to non-office 

workers is 68% and 32%, which remains constant through FY2020. 

The employee subscriber base will continue to converge to the Central Plateau and the City of 

Richland as cleanup progresses toward FY2020. The 100 Area will decrease from 219 to 118, the 

200E and 200W Areas will increase from 3,096 to 4,089 as WTP transitions into production, the 

300 Area will remain at 36 and the 400 Area at 28 employees. The 600 Area will increase from 401 

to 816 in support of WRPS WTP operations, and the City of Richland population will have a slight 

decrease from 2,133 to 2,084 particularly in radio, wireless and telephones in remote locations.

The subscriber forecast is based on the Hanford Site projected populations for the customer 

subscribing to IT services: CHPRC, ORP, RL, HPM Corporation, Lockheed Martin Services, Inc., MSA 

and WRPS. It also assumes WTP operation requirements will transition to WRPS in FY2017 and 

continue through FY2019. The subscriber population base shows a 22% growth between FY2013 

and FY2020. The trend is anticipated for IT demand will increase as projects continue to leverage 

3-52 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

technology to improve business process performance, particularly in wireless technology services 

used by field-workforces. 

Based on the population forecast, IT services will be moderate in subscriber changes between 

FY2013 and FY2016. Starting in FY2017, the IT subscriber base will grow as the WTP is 

transitioned into production and then level off in FY2019. Figure 3-14, IT Subscriber Forecast, 

takes all the current IT monthly recurring usage-base services and consolidates them into five 

subscriber categories. The demand for back end systems, storage and software applications will 

grow as the subscriber base grows and more business processes leverage IT technology to increase 

worker productivity.

Figure 3-14. IT Subscriber Forecast

IT Infrastructure Facilities. The goal is to right size IT infrastructure facilities by reducing from 29 

to 11 facilities for the FY2020 end state as the Hanford Site consolidates most active operations to 

the Central Plateau. 

The Integrated Voice and Data Telecommunication System (IVDTS) has been replaced with a Voice 

over Internet Protocol (VoIP) system, which consolidates the standalone voice and data networks. 

In FY2011, all voice services were removed from the IVDTS. In FY2012, all special circuits on the 

IVDTS were migrated to alternative solutions. From FY2012 through FY2015, starting with the 

3220 Building in the 300 Area, the IVDTS equipment will be removed and the buildings repurposed 

or decommissioned. The remaining 11 facilities are in good condition; no major repairs are 

anticipated for the next 10 years.

3-53 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

The primary data centers in the 339A Building recently replaced the HVAC systems to support the 

Hanford Federal cloud (HFcloud) well into the future. To maintain reliability and sustainability 

goals, the 339A Data Center uninterrupted power supply system is planned to be replaced in 

FY2014.

In the next five years, the secondary data center in the Federal Building will be moved because of 

space limitations and the increasing demand for HFcloud computing and data storage. The plan is 

to move the secondary data center into one of the vacated IVDTS facilities.

Safety concerns require the emergency notification siren tower underground equipment silos to be 

moved above ground. This activity is being planned and scheduled for the FY2013-FY2014 time 

frame. The sirens and other towers are adequate and only require routine maintenance and safety 

inspections. However, a study on the feasibility of removing the towers from Gable Mountain is 

being planned. If feasible, the action could result in two towers being removed from Gable 

Mountain and potentially three to four additional mini towers being installed to ensure wireless 

coverage is maintained throughout the Hanford Site.

Outside Plant. The existing copper plant is adequate and maintenance will be limited to sections 

currently being used, with the unused copper cables being abandoned in place.

Outside plant fiber cables will continue to be used for transporting voice, data, and imaging 

information between facilities and the data centers. The WTP facilities will have fiber cables 

installed to each facility as part of the construction requirements. The WTP fiber installation will be 

a distributed configuration tied to a central point so it can be easily tied into the Hanford Site’s fiber 

backbone infrastructure. Colocation of fiber optic cable in a common trench with the planned 

natural gas pipeline or within the same general corridor is being planned. Using the same trench 

provides significant savings in time and money compared to installing the cable at a separate time 

in a separate corridor.

Wireless Transport Systems. The wireless transport infrastructure systems use towers and 

building antennas to provide emergency radio, pager, fire alarms, cellular, and wireless data 

transport services (Wi-Fi, Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access [WiMax], 3G, 4G, etc.). 

Support facilities housing wireless transport equipment are located throughout the Hanford Site, 

including Rattlesnake Mountain and Gable Mountain. These wireless systems are a mix of 

government-owned and commercially provided systems.

IT solutions are being deployed or developed that allow workforces to receive job tickets or work 

packages in the field and clear those packages in real time when complete without going back to the 

office. 

Mobile computing devices necessitate a robust wireless infrastructure. Between FY2014 and 

FY2015 the increased demand for mobile devices onsite will require the wireless infrastructure 

capacity to be expanded, refreshed, modernized, and enhanced to stay current with project, cyber 

security, and industry compatibility requirements. 

3-54 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a 

The wireless infrastructure supports the following:

• Emergency Services/Safeguards and Security Radios (Hanford Patrol, Hanford Fire, Emergency 

Preparedness, and direct emergency support groups)

• General-purpose users’ radios (construction, maintenance, transportation, operations, and 

engineering organizations)

• Cellular and pager services (general-purpose communications including voice, instant 

messaging, and e-mail)

• Emergency Control and Status Systems (outdoor warning sirens and electronic message reader 

boards) 

• Per agreement with DOE, the radio fire alarm reporting system has started and will be complete

by the end of FY2016

• Remote-controlled cranes

• Weather, seismic, and well monitoring systems.

Safeguards and Security will continue to rely on radio and wireless communications for emergency 

notifications. The radio systems are current and will require one refresh by FY2020. The current 

emergency notification infrastructure (fire alarms, sirens and AM radio systems) are at end of life. 

These systems will have to be replaced over the next 5 years because the main products are 

manufacturer discontinued.

Network and Telecommunications Systems. As a vital infrastructure system, IT components must 

be maintained for physical maintenance, replacements, or software upgrades. Unlike electrical, 

roads, water with 30 to 50 year normal service lifespans, IT infrastructure components have a 

much shorter normal lifecycle, usually 3 to 6 years. Not being able to maintain a funded technology 

refresh program on this critical infrastructure puts essential services that projects depend on at 

risk. 

The VoIP deployment in FY2010 and FY2011, along with the HFcloud initiative in FY2012, were 

two steps to modernize the data center equipment infrastructure. Data center equipment elements 

are not anticipated to be refreshed, nor is it anticipated that any major requirements will 

materializing until FY2015 – FY2016. The near-term focus for FY2014 will be on the emergency 

notification systems, which are beyond their design life, with the primary focus on mitigating the 

siren silo equipment safety issue. 

End State FY2020:

The Hanford IT customer base is projected to be 7,200 by FY2020. While operations will continue 

to move out of the 300, 400, and 100 Areas and also decrease in the 600 and 200W Areas, the 

customer base will concentrate in the 200E Area to support tank farms and WTP. A secondary 

facility to replace the G4 facility located onsite while the remaining IT facilities shrink in number 

and size supporting new technology infrastructure. The goal for IT infrastructure facilities is 

reducing from 29 to 11 facilities for the end state by FY2020.

Document and records management storage solutions will become the focus to support remaining 

projects and growing LTS records needs. The site-wide business management software platform 

will be replaced by FY2020.

3.11 FACILITIES SYSTEM

Basic System Description: There are 1,044 active facilities on the 

Hanford Site that are made up of general purpose office space, 

shops, warehouses, and mission specific facilities. The facilities are 

tracked in the FIMS. The FMP was completed in FY2012 addressing 

general purpose facilities over 500 ft2 in size. Table 3-11 breaks 

down these facilities by ownership and square footage. Attributes 

for Facility Systems are provided in Table 3-12.

General Purpose Offices: 

Current Condition FY2013:

• Condition: Mostly Fair to Good for 1,264,400 gross ft2 of active owned and leased generalpurpose office facilities. Mostly poor for 140,900 gross ft2 which is past the end of design life 

and is not included in capacity

• Density: 555 gross ft2/staff member(1,264,400 gross ft2/2,280 staff members)

• Reliability: Percent usable when needed. Reliability is high because few events would make 

office space unusable; however, roof and HVAC replacements are required to sustain continued 

operations of office facilities

• Population Served: 2,280 contractor office population

• Areas Served: Primarily the Central Plateau and HAMMER, the PTA, 300 Area, and the City of 

Richland for the general purpose office facilities.

Site-wide facility office supply trends remain fairly constant at approximately 1,405,324 ft2 for 

FY2013 and FY2015. There are no funded projects to construct new office facilities within the MSA 

IRPPL (Appendix B). Approximately 10% of government-owned facilities will reach end-of-life 

thereby removing these facilities from current office availability; however, office demands are 

forecasted to be slightly lower as well, consequently offsetting the office availability reductions. In

the FY2020 period, it is possible significant WRPS office demands could become apparent as WRPS 

prepares to support the WTP operational ramp up. 

This forecast does not account 

for WTP office space planning 

because information is not 

available at this time. WTP 

operational staffing model 

(number of shifts, 24/7 day 

operations, production 

volumes, additional LowActivity Waste [LAW] modules, 

offsite and onsite support staff, 

levels of sustainability) is 

currently under evaluation. 

WRPS’s One System Group 

anticipates early results from 

the updated model to be 

available at the end of FY2013.

End State FY2020:

• Condition: Due to deferred 

maintenance, only Fair for 

the government owned 

portion of 1,218,300 gross 

ft2 of available generalpurpose office category 

space

• Density: Approximately 428 gross ft2/staff member (1,218,300 ft2/2,850 staff members)

• Reliability: Percent usable when needed. Reliability is high because few events would make 

office space unusable

• Population Served: 2,850

• Areas Served: Primarily the Central Plateau and HAMMER, the PTA, 300 and Area, and the City 

of Richland

• Gaps and Planned Projects: No gaps identified; refer to Figure 3-16 and Appendix B for planned 

projects.

Shops: The Hanford Site’s total shop space equates to 43 facilities supplying approximately 

244,646 ft2. With the exception of a few recently constructed shop facilities, approximately 60% of 

the existing shops are very old and in poor physical condition. Based on forecasted funding and 

mission requirements, the demand for shop space is forecasted to be constant through FY2020. 

This forecast does not account for WTP shop requirements because information is not available at 

this time. WTP is in the process of developing the WTP Infrastructure Model to address shop space 

needs to operate the WTP and waste feed operations. WRPS’s One System Group anticipates early 

results from the updated model to be available at the end of FY2013.

Warehouses: There are 38 warehouse facilities supplying approximately 454,719 ft2 of warehouse 

space. The Business Case Analysis for Warehouse Consolidation Pilot Project (HNF-51927) was 

performed second quarter of FY2012. From the data analyzed, WCH leased warehouse space 

demand will conclude with the end of their contract. CHPRC and MSA warehouse space 

requirements will remain constant through FY2020. All three contractors could leverage from 

project’s recommended consolidation initiatives, utilize shared central storage at 2101M and 

release leased space as a result of the extensive consolidation efforts. This resulted in a reduction of 

approximately 45,000 ft2 of ENW leased space that was used by CHPRC and WRPS. 

WTP is acquiring 184,000 ft2 of commercial warehouse space to accommodate storage of 

construction materials. This forecast does not account for WTP onsite warehouse requirements 

because information is not available at this time. WTP is developing the WTP Infrastructure Model 

to address warehouse space needs to operate the WTP and waste feed operations. WRPS’s One 

System Group anticipates early results from the updated model to be available at the end of 

FY2013. 

Footprint Reduction: The FIMS indicates that the most dramatic footprint reduction at the 

Hanford Site is closing and removing 95 of the 270 existing inactive facilities by FY2020. As these 

facilities are closed and demolished, the utilities serving them can be decommissioned, removed, or 

abandoned in place. The 95 facilities are currently in various lifecycle phases ranging from “D&D” 

to “Shutdown Pending D&D or Disposal,” to “Deactivated.” Depending on their past use, lifecycle 

phase, and condition, the 95 facilities have different S&M requirements until disposition.

By the end state of FY2020, the D&D of the 95 facilities will be accomplished, additional facilities 

will be deactivated, and the number of active facilities will be approximately 846 buildings, down 

from the 1,044 buildings existing in 2013.

Cost Savings Proposals: Refer to Appendix F.

Major Actions/Decisions Needed: Refer to Appendix B, Appendix E, and Appendix F. Based on 

forecasted Hanford Site mission needs, coupled with a backlog of facility maintenance/upgrades, a 

funding initiative is required to address facility replacement needs including energy and water 

savings upgrades as one long-term program with a realistic annual average goal.

Roadmap: Refer to Figure 3-16.

3.12 LAND SYSTEM

Basic System Description: The land system attributes, based on 

capacity and current system condition, is translated into six discrete 

areas of land management: 

• Pits and quarries for 

aggregates

• Transitions (cleanup to the 

LTS program) 

• Biological controls and 

integrated vegetative 

management

• Archeological monitoring

• Meteorological monitoring 

• Land management related 

activities (e.g., site 

selection, excavation 

permitting, 600 Area 

landlord activities;

implement the CLUP, TYSP, 

and geographic 

information system [GIS] 

mapping).

Attributes for Land Systems 

are provided in Table 3-13.

Each aspect of the land system 

is compared to mission 

requirements for the end-state 

planning horizons in FY2020. 

The overall goal and related 

strategy for the land system is 

a long-term reduction in 

footprint managed by RL and 

MSA under RL budget line

items. One major outcome expected is reduction in capital and maintenance expense categories for 

land management. 

Toward the overall goal via the strategy, several activities will remain active over long periods of 

time – annexation of lands by the City of Richland, conveyances to entities.

Integrated Land Management (ILM) program: The ILM is responsible for evaluating future use of 

Hanford Site lands. The program intends to incorporate the best of local government practices into 

the land management activities on the Hanford Site in accordance with the CLUP (DOE/EIS-0222-

F). It further refines implementation of DOE’s land use plan decision-making process in accordance 

with Federal Property Management Regulations, the CLUP and the MSA contract. 

The ILM program provides a streamlined planning process that engages the project managers and 

project sponsors who are considering future uses of land early in the decision process along with 

the tools such as a zoning map and development standards to assist in land development. 

Current Condition FY2013:

• Condition: Fair 

• Capacity : 586 mi2

• Reliability: 99% usable when needed (except during wildfire closures)

• Population Served: 8,450

• Areas Served: Entire Hanford Site

• Gaps and Planned Projects: No gaps identified; No planned projects.

Land Management: In December 2010, as part of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 

Year 2011, Congress directed DOE to study feasibility of establishing “energy parks” at sites 

including Hanford where large tracts of land could be suitable for use in producing energy from 

alternative sources. Congress’s direction is based on efforts to reduce the footprint of active 

cleanup operations and on community interest in producing clean and/or renewable energy 

products and services. Since early 2011, DOE employed a department-wide asset revitalization 

task force to look at the variety of “assets” potentially available to communities at the completion of 

cleanup at the EM sites. RL is currently partnering with the community on three primary areas:

• Creation of a Heritage Tourism Industry. In 2011, the U.S. Secretary of Interior 

recommended to Congress that Hanford’s B Reactor National Historic Landmark, along with 

properties in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and Los Alamos, New Mexico, be named to a new unit of the 

National Park Service commemorating the Manhattan Project. The B Reactor is already 

drawing large crowds via DOE’s public access program − more than 8,000 visitors from around 

the world in 2011 – and the Tri-City Visitor and Convention Bureau, area historians, elected 

officials and others are interested in expanding visitor opportunities onsite to create a HeritageTrail-type experience that would include the pre-Manhattan Project structures from the towns 

of Hanford and White Bluffs, the Bruggeman Warehouse, and other historic structures.

• Use of River Shore Lands for Recreation. No public access has been allowed to the Hanford 

Site side of the Columbia River shore since the U.S. government took over the area in 1943. 

However, with cleanup of most of the 220-mi2 Columbia River Corridor on track to be complete 

by FY2015, most of the lands soon will be safe for public access. Because the first quarter-mile 

of the shoreline from the river inland is included in the Hanford Reach National Monument, the 

3-66 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

degree of access will be guided in part by the USFWS’s Comprehensive Conservation Plan and 

Environmental Impact Statement. Several areas along the river are designated for recreation 

(high intensity and low intensity) and a new boat launch and camp sites are envisioned. 

• Development of the Lands Set Aside for Industrial Use. As major cleanup projects near 

completion, community focus has been heightened on transitioning the local economy away 

from its dependence on the Hanford Site cleanup funding. A key asset is seen to be the 

availability of the large tracts of industrial land at the Hanford Site, much of which was never 

used for the production mission and is close to city infrastructure. The high-acre tract size 

makes the industrial zone unique in Washington State. Community leaders also are looking to 

leverage the knowledge and skills of workers no longer needed at the Hanford Site to service 

compatible industries that could provide high-wage jobs. RL is evaluating larger tracts of 

industrial-designated land at the Hanford Site to determine whether they are suitable for 

potential conveyance to entities for clean energy technology and other energy-related 

development with resulting sustainable, long-term economic benefits to the local region. DOE 

also is in the early stages of preparing an environmental assessment (EA) under the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to evaluate the environmental impacts associated with the 

proposed conveyance of approximately 1,641 acres of industrial-designated lands located in the 

southeast corner of the Hanford Site. The Tri-City Development Council (TRIDEC), a designated 

Community Reuse Organization (CRO) under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, proposes to use 

these lands to attract clean, energy-related businesses and investment and ensure future 

growth and stability for the local community.

RL will continue to explore developing potential partnerships and proposals with other DOE offices, 

other federal agencies, local governments, the private sector, tribal nations, CROs, and public 

utilities to use Hanford’s land and assets to create local economies that will thrive after the Hanford 

Site cleanup has ended.

Pits and Quarries for Aggregate: This area received high-priority planning attention during the 

FY2012 and FY2013 ISAP process for several reasons. First, only seven MSA-managed pits are 

currently active (6, 9, 23, 30, 34, H, and N) to provide aggregate and soil used for mission cleanup 

among 36 pits, including closed or historically used areas. All seven MSA active pits face the end of 

permitted lifespan per the Environmental Assessment for Use of Existing Borrow Areas, Hanford Site, 

Richland, Washington (DOE/EA-1403) and Environmental Assessment for Reactivation and Use of 

Three Former Borrow Sites in the 100-F, 100-H, and 100-N Areas (DOE/EA-1454), requiring a new 

Environmental Assessment for Expansion of Borrow Areas on the Hanford Site (DOE/EA-1934) to 

allow for continued expansion for some of these pits as well as several others including one new 

borrow pit. DOE/EA-1934 is scheduled to be completed in fall of 2013 and it will allow for the 

continued supply of aggregate and soil for the Hanford Site through FY2015. Subsequent NEPA 

reviews for additional pit expansion and/or new pits will be required beyond FY2015 because 

there will be a continued need for more borrow material, particularly for the Central Plateau. Many 

of the pits lie in the west central portions of the Hanford Site, creating the need to consider road 

restrictions for FY2020 and making exceptions for aggregate hauling to continue after 100 Area 

roads and Beloit Avenue become restricted by FY2020. The largest single unresolved issue is 

created by the inability to use Areas A, B, or C to provide cover and cap material to complete 

remediation of disturbed areas with Area C being the primary focus area for this source material. 

This mission-critical need requires the Final Tank Closure and Waste Management Environmental 

3-67 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

Impact Statement (DOE/EIS-0391) NEPA decision or the use of offsite supply sources to meet 

needs. This gap is a cost and schedule impact to the cleanup mission deserving high attention by 

Hanford Site management because there may be a need for this material as early as FY2014.

The locations of pits and quarries are shown in Figure 3-17 in the FY2020 presentation map.

Biological Controls, Wildfires and Land Re-vegetation: The dramatic changes in the overall 

Hanford Site footprint as remediation activities wrap up and land is transitioned into LTS status 

will be reflected in the above described biological control activities, in response to and as a 

preventative measure for periodic wildfires. The wildfire susceptibility areas, major aggregate 

source locations and future land use designations are shown on Figure 3-17.

MSA conducts vegetation management at various Hanford Site contractor locations that require 

different management strategies. These locations include radioactive and chemical waste 

management areas (i.e., single-shell and double-shell tank farms; solid waste burial grounds and 

landfills; and liquid waste ponds, ditches, cribs, and unplanned release sites), infrastructure areas 

(i.e., roadways, fence lines, utility right-of-ways, railroads, etc.), rangelands, and landscaped areas 

around buildings. Vegetation management in landscaped areas is not within the scope of the EA 

and continues to be excluded under the NEPA Implementing Procedures (10 CFR 1021), 

Appendix B, Subpart D, categorical exclusion B1.3, routine maintenance. 

Tank farms are kept void of all vegetation. Solid waste burial grounds and landfills, liquid waste 

ponds, ditches, cribs, and unplanned release sites are re-vegetated with shallow rooted grasses and 

treated to preclude deep rooted plant invasion (some solid waste burial grounds are kept void of all 

vegetation). Infrastructure areas are kept void of all vegetation. Rangelands are treated to control 

invasive plants and noxious weeds. Tumbleweed accumulations are removed from all locations; 

potentially contaminated tumbleweeds are compacted and buried as low-level waste while 

uncontaminated tumbleweeds are piled and burned.

Prior to FY2011, vegetation management at Hanford did not require a separate EA or 

environmental impact statement (EIS). The topic was treated as a Categorical Exclusion and 

included in the CLUP to some extent. In FY2011 and FY2012, the scope of vegetation management 

activities was analyzed for potential direct, indirect, and cumulative environmental impacts from 

vegetation management activities conducted at Hanford and was documented in the EA and finding 

of no significant impact (FONSI). 

The approved EA and FONSI issued in FY2012 allows MSA vegetation management activities using 

physical, chemical, and biological methods to resume within the bounds of available funding; 

including the treatment of large rangeland areas (up to 10,000 acres annually) to control invasive 

plants and noxious weeds. An added benefit of the EA is an allowance for prescribed burning 

followed by re-vegetation as a method for controlling invasive plants and noxious weeds. The 

combination of physical, chemical, biological, prescribed burning, and vegetation methods are

referred to as “integrated vegetation management (IVM).” 

The IVM concept provides a holistic approach to vegetation management that transitions efforts 

from weed eradication to a comprehensive landscape approach aimed at restoring native shrubs, 

grasses, forbs, and other desirable plants for the overall health of the ecosystem. For example, 

3-68 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

prescribed burning followed by re-vegetation in rangelands will allow better control of cheat grass 

(a primary wildfire fuel) in favor of more wildfire tolerant native shrubs, grasses, forbs, and other 

desirable plants that help to restore plant community connectivity and foster improved wildlife 

habitat. IVM includes re-vegetation efforts following plant eradication treatments to supplement 

natural plant succession. 

The EA document presents an “adaptive management” philosophy to managing Hanford Site lands. 

Adaptive management incorporates evaluating treatments to assess successes and failures. Future 

treatments are adjusted based on the learning to optimize treatment effectiveness and minimize 

potential environmental impacts consistent with Integrated Safety Management System (ISMS) 

principles of feedback and continuous improvement. Efforts to conduct adaptive management are 

at a suboptimal funding level. Investments in adaptive management will ultimately reduce the 

overall costs for vegetation management by reducing the number of treatments (including 

retreatment of site areas), while reducing potential impacts on the human environment; including 

natural, cultural, and ecological resources. 

Future activities for vegetation management involve remediation and closure of waste sites 

currently managed by WRPS, WCH, and CHPRC. Following remediation and closure of waste sites, 

the sites will be turned over to MSA for management through the LTS program. In some cases, 

surface barriers will be employed to achieve final closure; especially when contaminants remain 

and unrestricted access cannot be granted. Surface barriers will be re-vegetated with shallow 

rooted plants to stabilize soils from erosion and prevent deep-rooted plant invasion and 

subsequent biological transport of contaminants. Vegetation management will be required to 

control invasive plants and noxious weeds on waste sites where surface barriers are an integral 

part of site closure. 

In the future, all contractors will incorporate early restoration into the remediation process. In the 

near future, a revision to all onsite contractor’s contracts will require that they adhere to the 

requirements in the Hanford Site Re-vegetation Plan, which incorporates restoration re-vegetation 

methodologies. Re-vegetation also is addressed in the scope of the Natural Resource Damage 

Assessment (NRDA) program administered by the Natural Resource Trustee Council to provide 

final actions to meet Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation & Liability Act of 1980 

(CERCLA) compliance for site restoration. The NRDA program is currently in the early phases of 

baseline studies and scientific reports within a 10-year program to define NRDA projects for 

eventual DOE funding. The MSA biological controls program along with monitoring activities 

implements IVM. MSA’s activities implement parts of the NRDA program in various supporting 

roles. 

As the Hanford Site footprint, funded by the RL program budget, continues to shrink from land 

conveyances made by DOE to other entities, there is an expectation that vegetation management 

services performed by MSA (i.e., manpower and equipment resources; knowledge of vegetation 

management practices and associated regulatory requirements; holder of the commercial pesticide 

applicator license for Hanford Site, etc.) should continue for efficiency and assuring compliance 

continuity. One similar example includes MSA current services for ENW at the Columbia 

Generating Station site.

3.13 LAND SYSTEM – LONG-TERM STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM

Basic System Description: DOE established the Hanford LTS 

program to ensure continued protectiveness of cleanup remedies 

and to ensure protection of natural resources, the environment, and 

human health. LTS activities include providing long-term post 

cleanup S&M and monitoring, and maintaining institutional and 

physical controls for those geographic areas that have been 

transitioned into the LTS 

program. The Hanford LTS 

program manages the 

geographic areas for which 

interim or final cleanup has 

been completed. This 

management is performed in 

accordance with the post 

cleanup requirements specified 

in the associated cleanup 

decision documents. Most LTS 

activities occur on an annual 

basis with reactor entries 

occurring every 5 years. 

Infrastructure needed to 

support this level of activity is 

minimal. The attributes for 

LTS are provided in Table 3-14.

In the FY2020 planning 

horizon, the geographic areas 

of the River Corridor will be 

transitioned to the LTS 

program with the exception of 100K. The geographic areas of the Central Plateau are not planned 

for transition within that time frame. 

Prior to geographic areas being transitioned into the LTS program, a Transition and Turnover 

Package (TTP) is prepared to compile the pertinent information. Existing infrastructure required 

to support the post-cleanup mission along with infrastructure requirements for site-wide support 

are identified in the TTP. This infrastructure includes Hanford Site roads, facilities, and utilities. 

It also includes services required to ensure protection of government property (e.g., emergency 

response, waste management, power, water). 

The LTS program needs electrical power and physical access (roads) to perform required activities. 

Electrical power is typically transmitted along power lines owned by DOE and managed by MSA. If 

the existing electrical power lines are not available at some point in the future, an option for 

meeting the electrical requirements would be the use of low-voltage solar panels to provide power

for the cocooned reactors monitoring instrumentation and a mobile generator to support the 

required 5-year reactor entries.

The paved and unpaved roads in the majority of the 100 Area (River Corridor) are used to provide 

support services, such as biological controls, access to the utilities, access to the infrastructure 

supporting ongoing groundwater monitoring activities, and for emergency response situations. 

After FY2015, it is anticipated secondary roads in the 100 and 600 Areas will be categorized as 

“restricted access” based on minimal use for LTS, groundwater, environmental, and security/fire 

response functions. Maintenance of these roads is expected to be minimal after the River Corridor 

cleanup is complete (currently scheduled for completion by FY2015). The minimal road 

maintenance will be sufficient to meet the LTS S&M requirements. No new infrastructure needs are 

anticipated for LTS. The 100K Area roads will be needed beyond FY2020. 

Current Condition FY2013:

• Condition: Fair

• Capacity: 564 Acres

• Reliability: 99% useable when needed (wildfire closures)

• Population Served: N/A 

• Areas Served: Segment 1, Segment 2, Segment 3, 100-F Area, Segment 5

• Gaps and Projects in Progress: No gaps or projects identified 

End State FY2020:

• Condition: Fair

• Capacity: 2,000 Acres

• Reliability: 99% useable when needed (wildfire closures)

• Population Served: N/A 

• Areas Served: All with the exception of the inner and outer areas of the Central Plateau and 

100K Area

• Gaps and Projects in Progress (if any): No gaps or projects identified.

Cost Savings Proposals: Summarized in Appendix F and detailed below:

Resequencing the 5-year entries into cocooned reactors placed into interim safe storage (ISS) status 

in 1 year allows a more efficient and safe execution with savings generated in planning, work 

packages, scope execution (sequential visits with the same team) and reporting efficiency (one 

inspection report for DOE review vs. six reports to review and process) as well as fewer long-term 

records. 

The initial estimate by mobilized Hanford Site contractors for scope execution of the proposal is 

approximately $100,000 per monitoring cycle. However, additional savings will be generated in 

planning, work packages and reporting. The total exact savings is not estimated at this time. The 

inspections requiring reactor structure entry also will be executed more safely as teams move 

sequentially from one reactor to the next implementing cumulative lessons learned. 

Major Actions/Decisions Needed: Refer to Appendix E.

4.0 NEXT STEPS – PATH FORWARD

This chapter includes additional detail about new business practices and technologies, emerging 

trends, cost savings and process streamlining previously introduced in Chapters 1.0 through 3.0. 

4.1 BUSINESS PRACTICES AND POLICIES

Business practices and policies are maintained and updated administratively for orderly execution 

of mission support activities throughout the Hanford Site. In general, the ISAP annual report 

focuses on business practices and policies and includes recommendations for possible process 

improvements in infrastructure and services for mission support for the 13 ISAP systems.

An example of how practices and policies are shaping mission support planning is reflected by 

using premanufactured structures for short-term needs and reducing the footprint for permanent 

facilities. Existing facilities as defined in the MSC, including temporary and permanent, all require 

infrastructure support. Several business practices and policies shape decision making:

• Lease vs. own

• Cost to mobilize and demobilize

• Cost efficiency of maintenance long term

• Energy efficiency

• Mission support time horizons driving facility lifespan

• Quality of work life for employees. 

In FY2009 to FY2011, approximately 3,500 additional staff required many temporary facilities. 

Following a short-term facility ramp-up, the site-wide policy was to reduce the large number of 

leased pre-manufactured facilities. Progress on the ramp-down effort was reported in a study of 

approximately 390 general purpose facilities within the ISAP annual report in FY2012. Quickly 

adding then removing short-term structures over 4 years required numerous physical changes to 

roads, parking and utility infrastructure systems. 

The FY2012 analysis revealed a few temporary structures remain in use long past the normal life 

span. Also, a projected large near-term unfunded cost bubble for permanent facility upgrades was 

noted.

Implementing deliberate deferred maintenance as a long-term business practice and policy strategy 

is currently increasing long-term costs for general purpose facilities, roads and utilities 

infrastructure, as well as adding to the DOE system-wide deferred maintenance backlog list. To 

address this trend of increasing long-term cost, two approaches are being applied. 

• Existing facilities and infrastructure, the largest asset base with opportunities implemented via 

planned replacements and upgrades listed in Appendix B IRRPL.

• New facilities and infrastructure, a smaller asset base with several opportunities largely located 

in or near the WTP complex, discussed in the following sections.

4.1.1 BUSINESS PRACTICES ALREADY INTRODUCED

Business practices in proposed facilities dictate both the size and degree of support infrastructure 

impacts. Several business practices will remain under consideration for incremental 

4-1 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

implementation during the next 5 to 7 years to help shape approximately 35 proposed new 

facilities, including the following:

• Developing a Site-wide videoconferencing policy for travel efficiency for live meetings

• Instituting a Cloud First Site-wide policy for optimizing onsite data center facilities

• Staggering the program work hours for 2 or 3 shifts within a 24-hour day at WTP

• Facility consolidation for existing warehouse space needs

• Restricting placement of “non-essential” personnel, including administrative office workers, in 

the Central Plateau area supporting WTP complex

• Requiring a commuter trip reduction goal for ride share, shuttle vans and/or transit 

participation for workers commuting to WTP facilities in the 200E Area through FY2045+

• Centralized vs. decentralized electrical power, water, and sanitary sewer systems 

• Redundancy requirements for utilities.

4.1.2 FY2013 BUSINESS PRACTICES

Business practices and policies with impacts to mission support infrastructure systems identified in 

FY2013 include:

• Cost estimation standards and policy changes for Hanford program are expected in early 

FY2014 resulting from an anticipated General Accounting Office report about technically 

complex projects. The anticipated impacts will be primarily to the WTP program, although 

mission support planning may also be impacted. Any changes in cost estimation practices will 

be reflected for infrastructure projects and procurements listed in Appendix B.

• Information technology business policy changes in cyber security, national security 

surveillance of electronic records and hardening of data transmission and data storage systems. 

All of these were very dynamic topics during FY2013 and included in Section 3.10.

4.2 NEW TECHNOLOGIES/EMERGING ISSUES

This section provides examples of how the ISAP annual process identifies emerging issues for 

beneficial outcomes. Emerging issues for infrastructure come from a wide variety of sources:

• External

o Federal and state regulations

o U.S. and global trends

o Changes in technology

o Economics/Funding.

• Internal

o System Manager

o Lateral transfer of information from other federal sites.

In FY2011, incorporating a closed-loop cooling system on the 242-A Evaporator Facility was 

introduced as an example of an internal emerging issue and possible water, energy savings 

proposal as well as a possible long-term cost savings proposal. This facility is one of the Site’s 

largest raw water and energy consumers. If implemented, a closed-loop system at the 242-

A Evaporator will allow the Site to fully meet its sustainability goal of a 20% decrease in raw water 

consumption by FY2020.

4-2 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

Currently, external and internal emerging trends in existing water utilities are driven by 

sustainability. New LEED construction proposals are required to take into consideration alternative 

water sources for each new building, rather than assume the existing water system will provide 

100% of the water to meet the demands for all new proposals. New facilities could include storm 

water capture and storage tanks, rainwater capture and storage tanks, gray-water processing and 

filtration, and reduced-flow water fixtures to avoid 100% reliance on piped water utility systems. 

Generally, per the High Performance and Sustainable Buildings Plan (HPSB) (HNF-52346), 

requirements apply to new construction based on the value threshold and building size, unless the 

HPSB standards are waived because of budget constraints or other project-specific decision 

making.

Implementation of new energy sources is an example of an emerging issue. Electric vehicle 

performance per mile is now at the equivalent of $1.14 per gallon when compared to vehicle fuel 

prices. The Site’s conversion to electric vehicles was implemented in FY2012 and is expected to 

expand. Infrastructure to support this expansion is needed.

The Hanford community, ENW, and local government are working with the Federal Government to 

entertain the possibility of utilizing the Columbia Generating Station site to add a small modular 

reactor to validate the option as a viable energy resource. The Site is receptive to evaluate 

proposals such as these for energy resources from the community from a value standpoint even if 

the generated power is provided to offsite users.

4.3 SITE SUSTAINABILITY AND ENERGY SAVINGS PERFORMANCE CONTRACTS

Sustainability is a cross-cutting regulatory measure represented in 20 goals listed in the 2013 

Hanford Site Sustainability Plan (HNF-54800) and TYSP. Twelve goals are directly influenced 

and/or implemented via infrastructure and facilities in the Site’s physical plant systems.

Executive Order 13514, Federal Leadership in Environmental, Energy and Economic 

Performance, set sustainability goals for federal agencies for improving environmental, energy, 

and economic performance. The executive order requires federal agencies to set a FY2020 

greenhouse gas emissions reduction target, increase energy efficiency, reduce fleet petroleum 

consumption, conserve water, reduce waste, support sustainable communities, and leverage federal 

purchasing power to promote environmentally responsible products and technologies.

Late in FY2013, MSA began the process of evaluating projects for the application of a Utility Energy 

Services Contract (UESC). The UESC would provide RL funding for energy savings projects through 

a contract with BPA. Approximately $5M in energy savings project scope has been identified for 

evaluation. Upon screening and approval, projects to meet UESC energy savings requirements 

would begin in FY2014.

Executive Order 13423, Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy and Transportation 

Management, directs federal agencies to reduce energy intensity and greenhouse gas emissions, 

substantially increase use and efficiency of renewable energy technologies, adopt sustainable 

design practices, and reduce petroleum use in federal fleets.

RL, ORP, and their contractors are proactively implementing activities to support the achievement 

of the 20 sustainability goals established by Executive Orders 13514 and 13423. Plans and ongoing 

activities to achieve all 20 major goals at the Hanford Site are presented in the Hanford Site 

4-3 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

Sustainability Plan. The Hanford Site is making significant progress toward achieving these goals by 

attaining or exceeding most requirements in FY2013. 

In addition to UESC, another option for achieving sustainability goals is an energy savings 

performance contract (ESPC). The Hanford Site is using a Super ESPC contractor to evaluate 

potential new projects to support achieving the target goals of Executive Order 13423. However, no

new projects for existing facilities are being pursued using an ESPC, due to several different factors: 

• Low return on investment 

• Long pay back periods

• Lack of available funding

• Lack of defined programs

• Lack of Site history for doing similar upgrades

• Lack of completed retro-commissioning reports with energy savings measures (ESM) defined

• Baseline energy use data not yet complete for 1M gross ft2 of facilities being studied in FY2013. 

An ESPC needs a large single facility challenge or a large scale of several projects bundled into a 

single program to optimize the contracting vehicle type. There is sufficient scale in general purpose 

facilities (378 of 796 existing buildings to remain past FY2020) for considering an ESPC program. 

However, the two most limiting factors are a high number of existing facilities with simple or no 

HVAC systems (HVAC upgrades with forced air fan motors and chillers generate the largest saving 

yield) and low energy costs (payback and return on investment lie outside of normal investment 

parameters for funding decisions). Industrial process heat and facility space heat might be the most 

promising areas targeting winter peak energy demand. The ESPC and other related contract vehicle 

options were studied by MSA during FY2013. Another limitation to implementing a new ESPC is 

incomplete electrical metering on existing buildings. 

4.4 COST SAVINGS / COST AVOIDANCE

This section provides information about costs savings and cost avoidance proposals that create 

efficiencies, and meet a dual purpose of mission support and costs savings for DOE. Cost savings is 

defined as buying at a lower cost, while cost avoidance is buying less quantity or not buying at 

all. For example, when saving on printing paper, the site program could either opt for a less 

expensive brand (cost savings) or encourage paper reuse in order to use less paper (cost 

avoidance).

MSA implemented a cost avoidance and savings process at the start of the MSC as outlined in 

Section J.4.D, Sub-section 4, Performance Incentive Fee Calculation Methodology” containing 

strategic goals to achieve efficiencies. Efficiencies can be realized in cost avoidance or savings. In 

subsection 4, in item 2.0 “Efficient Site Cleanup and Future Waste Treatment Plant Operations” two 

main goals are listed:

• 2.1: Realize efficiencies through integration, consolidation, and standardization of site-wide 

service and business functions.

• 2.2: Realize efficiencies through integration, consolidation, and standardization of site-wide 

safety, security, and stewardship programs.

MSA employs several strategies to achieve and continue building on increasing efficiencies. MSA 

has implemented Operating Excellence initiatives, Lean Six Sigma initiatives, technical innovations 

and improvements in work processes, consolidations of services and delivery mechanisms, 

continuous analysis of staffing strategies and labor skill mixes, and other business analyses. During 

FY2010 through FY2012, MSA achieved cost avoidances and savings totaling over $111M. These 

efforts will continue through the remainder of the MSC. Strategically, RL and ORP can utilize and 

4-4 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

manage resources at the site-wide programmatic level, from continuously improved service with 

excellence at the best price.

Costs savings and cost avoidance are subject to several DOE directives and guidance for real 

property, facilities and infrastructure considered during the ISAP process. 

Many Cost Savings proposals for ISAP systems relate to the largest 6 of 13 infrastructure systems 

that are under the management of RL Site Infrastructure, Services, and Information Management

Division. The infrastructure cost savings help meet the Vision 2015 goal to right size infrastructure 

and site services. 

Sequestration requirements were required and implemented during the second half of FY2013. The 

response plan created reductions labor and non-labor cost categories. The sequestration response 

cost savings proposals were separately tracked by MSA and RL. The temporary efforts, measures 

and responses for costs savings were applicable only during FY2013, so all of the sequestration 

response proposals are not included within the ISAP Appendix F.

Cost avoidance proposals include:

• Estimated costs not spent from cancellation of infrastructure projects or changed needs that 

eliminate a planned expenditure

• Planned and budgeted component costs that were not spent such as lower market prices for a 

different fuel supply, or a favorable bidding climate for materials and labor.

Cost savings and cost avoidance proposals typically emerge during Phase B Synthesis and Phase C 

Conceptual tasks of the ISAP planning process include meetings and discussions various 

stakeholders. After gaps are identified very often the wide variety of crosscutting requirements and 

exploration of options and alternatives leads to identifying several methods or strategies to meet 

mission support needs. Also, value engineering suggestions during implementation phases can 

result in cost savings. Finally, cost savings can come from a wide external sources - LEAN Six Sigma 

efforts, market factors, new technology, pre-construction walk-down, etc.

The current cost savings and cost avoidance proposals are in Appendix F, Table F-1 as a quick 

reference list of proposals and also mentioned in Chapter 3. A database is maintained by MSA 

Portfolio Management (PfM) for tracking proposals using nine status phases, as follows:

1. Concept review, currently the largest number of proposals are in this category at approximately 

128 proposals.

2. Initial review.

3. Selection.

4. Technical review.

5. Input review, for comments.

6. Review decision.

7. Implementation decision, the second largest number of proposals are in this category currently 

at approximately 103 proposals. 

8. Implement. 

9. Archive.

The process of adding new cost savings / avoidance proposals can be directly entered to the PfM 

database or captured during the ISAP data gathering workshops. After cross check and validation 

and discussion during the ISAP review process, the proposals are added to Table F-1 as a subset of 

the proposals maintained and updated in the PfM database. All validated proposal line items are 

4-5 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

entered on the PfM database after full documentation of each proposal is developed following the 

protocol and submittal form already established. Selected cost savings requiring a major decision 

(due to size of the scope, site wide impact or amount of funding needed) in Appendix E Decisions 

Needed Summary are updated during the ISAP annual planning cycle.

The Hanford Site long-term vision defined a Site-wide energy management system encompassing 

all aspects of energy generation and transmission, including human and industrial energy use, 

energy waste, and alternative forms of energy. The transformation from thinking about energy as 

separate utilities to envisioning a single energy management utility began in FY2012. A gradual 

transition will continue over the next 7 years of physical plant planning. Initially, this means 

treating electrical service and the natural gas pipeline as one energy business concentration.

The mandates for a multi-source energy system come from global and U.S. trends in energy supply 

and demand affecting the preference of fuel types. Energy density is becoming a more prominent 

topic as the nuclear industry approaches an epic next cycle of investment to replace 104 existing 

aging plants. Toward the future needs in nuclear power generation platforms, DOE-HQ announced 

the initial funding of a Small Modular Reactor (SMR) program contract based primarily at the Oak 

Ridge Site. As the entire U.S. economy moves from having 60% to 66% of gross domestic product 

related to energy, the Hanford Site will also look to utilize other energy sources to satisfy Hanford’s 

energy needs. RL has committed to purchase all of its electrical power from BPA through FY2028 

and will continue to work to augment the site generated energy supply for peak needs as well as for 

Site needs beyond FY2028.

For the Hanford Site, diverse energy options under consideration are a natural gas pipeline, a solar 

photovoltaic farm, a possible commercial biofuel plant for jet aviation, an SMR, wind turbines, and 

smart grid research and development. Projections are expecting the dominance of energy 

management at the Site beyond FY2020 as most of the cleanup mission is completed and 

alternative uses of the designated industrial or research and development portions of the Hanford 

Site become a near-term consideration. To help meet the mission end states beyond FY2020, 

particularly for WTP, which are projected through FY2045, planning by FY2020 will merge existing 

energy systems with considerations for larger efforts in energy conservation, energy savings 

including Site-based energy performance measures and energy management, including capture and 

reuse (e.g., cogeneration plants or process enhancements) to become part of the single energy 

management system.

4.5 WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM BY FY2035

The Hanford Site long-term vision turns toward one Site-wide water management system that 

encompasses all aspects of the hydrologic water cycle, including human and industrial use of water, 

waste water, groundwater, and surface water. The transformation from thinking about water as 

two separate utilities toward envisioning a single water management utility began in FY2012. The 

gradual transition will continue over the next 21 years of physical plant planning.

In July 2012, 61% of the land area in the entire U.S. was in a formal drought designation ranking 

third worst in a century. The long-term trends in fresh water create a planning mandate for a single 

comprehensive water system at Hanford. A single system can be planned as the eventual Site 

response to state, regional, and local, as well as global and U.S. trends in water supply. Lessons 

learned during the past decades pointed to lack of groundwater recharge led to water supply crisis 

4-6 | Page
HNF-44238, Rev 4a

responses. Projections indicate extraordinary measures for water management will arrive and also 

be needed by FY2040. To help meet the mission end states beyond FY2020, particularly for the 

WTP ending in FY2045, planning for the Site by FY2020 will merge the raw, export, and potable 

water systems with the sanitary sewer system, adding considerations for treated waste water (gray 

water) for reuse, water conservation, and water savings. Plans will include site-based water 

performance measures and storm water management including capture and reuse (e.g., irrigation 

for landscape). However, groundwater will continue to be part of the regulatory cleanup domain 

until the groundwater cleanup program ends in FY2035, then groundwater becomes part of the 

single water management system managed primarily by RL assisted by the mission support 

contractor.

In FY2013, the overall condition of the Site’s water and sanitary sewer utilities are not acceptable to 

meet future mission requirements. Parts of the piped, pumped, stored, and treated water systems 

exceed 50 years of age and are not expected to meet operational capacity and reliability 

requirements for the WTP and its attendant tank waste feed systems without upgrades. Utility 

requirements for the WTP’s 40-year mission cannot be met without significant capital outlay for 

capacity and reliability upgrades and replacements. Several upgrades and replacements are 

identified on the IRPPL.

The two major water system projects under way during FY2013 are L-778 for the Central Plateau 

water system upgrades and the river corridor water system upgrades. Both projects make critical 

capacity and reliability modifications needed for the FY2020 end state. The long-term cost saving 

concept features a deep well to serve 200 Area water needs to eliminate the 151-KE (A-9) 

Substation including 1.5MW long-term load after cleanup electrical needs are ended. Savings 

include eliminating annual maintenance and replacing electrical lines, one substation, numerous 

transformers, removing one or both river supply pipelines and one or more pump stations. The 

concept relies on discontinuation of groundwater pumping at river (when cleanup objectives have 

been reached for plume control) and a restoration of normalized infiltration patterns via natural 

process for site aquifer recharge.

The sanitary sewer system will continue the transition process of reducing reliance on pumped 

tanks and septic drain fields. The emerging central system to meet long-term demands includes 

one large existing centralized treatment lagoon in 200W and a 200E solution to be determined (for 

waste water conveyance to 200W lagoon or treatment facilities) to serve the majority of Central 

Plateau needs.

Three WTP-related topics require tracking. Sanitary sewer loading associated with a proposed 

WTP office building might be decided by FY2015 when the sewer solution for the project can be 

confirmed. The outcome expected for the proposed WTP office building is that sanitary sewer 

disposal via centralized collection eventually will be needed. This expectation is based on the 

calculation of 2,500 employees at 21 gal/day/employee = 52,500 gal/day. Water demand for the 

overall WTP complex is not yet tied to the operational scenario that considers flow modeling for 

shifts, production levels, and staffing levels. This has more implications for operations (e.g., a 

24-hour dispatch call center) yet the water demand capacity is likely to fall within the general 

capacity of the existing system. The future water flow demand compared to the water system 

capacity could change as fire reviewers potentially change the current fire flow requirement of 

2,500 gal/min for parts of the WTP complex. The water flow demand change could occur

incrementally when engaging in a full review of all prior design and construction decisions made to 

date, as the WTP operations-phase fire response team replaces the WTP construction-phase fire 

protection team on a building-by-building transition basis.

APPENDIX B

Infrastructure Reliability Project Priority List (IRPPL)

The Infrastructure Reliability Project Priority List (IRPPL) for fiscal year (FY) 2014 through 

FY2020 is provided in Table B-1. 

Each year, the Mission Support Alliance, LLC (MSA), Project Planning and Integration (PPI) 

group defines reliability projects (funded primarily by RL-0040 funding source, unless 

otherwise noted), including baseline planning activities for out-year projects in the IRPPL.

During FY2013, the IRPPL Scope Development Process guidance document (MSC-GD-54627) 

was updated. In addition, alignment of the IRPPL process in relation to the annual budget 

preparation process was provided in MSC-GD-54665, Mission Support Planning Process 

Description guidance document prepared in FY2013. Changes reflect more discipline 

validation and scoring steps imposed on projects during FY2013, compared to prior year 

IRPPL documents.

Baseline project planning took place at discipline specific system meetings. These meetings 

reviewed and revised the IRPPL according to current risks and mission need. Data for 

projects currently on the IRPPL were completed and then validated by system-specific 

Subject Matter Experts and system managers.

For new projects added to the IRPPL, the following data was required:

1. Mission Need Statement (capability or reliability deficiency/gap tied to a mission requirement). 

2. Project Scope Document [Form A-6006-383] in accordance with MSC-GD-54627. 

3. Cost Estimate. 

4. Capital Determination on the Project [Form A-6006-388]. 

5. Priority Rating Criteria Worksheet [Form A6005-900]. 

6. Schedule. 

7. Risk Analysis. 

Gap Summary (Appendix D) in Table D-1 reflects any gaps that have been identified but are still 

being vetted for mission need prior to incorporation onto the IRPPL. 

For any reported needs that did not accomplish all 7 of the above steps by July 1, 2013, gap 

activities are shown on the Gap Summary (Appendix D) in Table D-1. Each gap listed will 

result in a following next action:

• Track as a Decisions Needed (Appendix E), until fully resolved (defined and funded project, or an activity to 

address the need)

• Track as a gap met by a defined Project on the IRPPL (Appendix B). 

The content in two IRPPL columns titled “Risks If Not Performed” and “Mission Need” is 

removed from Appendix B IRRPL within ISAP annual report, because the selected information 

is OUO. The content for these two columns is available in the OUO version FY2013 IRPPL 

dated 7/31/13.

Station Conceptual Design 

Report/Definitive Design 

/Construction

“The new “Central Plateau East” (CPE) Fire Station will be constructed at the northeast corner of Route 4 South and Baltimore Avenue in the 200 East Area. This proposed 

fire station is strategically located to respond in a timely manner to the Central Plateau Area and specifically to the Waste Treatment Plant during operation. This fire 

station also will have the capacity and equipment necessary to respond to a sodium fire in the 400 Area and to provide support to the 100 Area. The current configuration 

of this new fire station includes a main fire station building, an equipment storage building, and a five-bay vehicle storage building. 

HFD Facilities 1 FY16

ET50, (distribution layer completion) 

HLAN Network Upgrade Phase I 

(Refresh) 

The ET-50 project includes the design, procurement, and upgrade of the Hanford Local Area Network (HLAN) backbone network infrastructure. The network will require 

both software and hardware upgrades that will improve capacity and functionality of the HLAN Backbone. As the HLAN has become more complex to allow for virtualized 

network and servers, the core infrastructure has not been upgraded to match. This project will create a design that will upgrade the hardware to better match the new 

HLAN. The equipment and technology also will be Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) capable, which will support a required federal mandate for IPv6 compliance.

The network devices to be upgraded are various models of network switches from Cisco Systems, Inc. The devices provide network, application, and data access for users, 

servers, and network services transported via the HLAN such as Internet, Intranet, Email, IDMS, TIS, PopFon, AJHA, HEIS, Docs Online, VoIP, Emergency Notification, etc. 

for the Hanford Site including the Tank Operations Contract (TOC), Plateau Remediation Contract (PRC) and Mission Support Contract (MSC) scope. Replacement of the 

existing equipment will provide higher levels of security, functionality, and performance. The actual facilities targeted for each phase will be determined during the design 

phase to ensure a proper balance of risk and business impacts associated with the implementation.

Project L-777 will rehabilitate Route 4S from the 618-10 Waste Site intersection to Horn Rapids Road by placing a 2" thick asphalt overlay over the existing asphalt. The 

roadway length is approximately 5.3 miles and the width is 68' feet with additional width for acceleration and deceleration lanes at all major intersections. The shoulders 

will be built up to finish grade of the new asphalt with gravel, and paint striping will be applied for lane lines and fog lines. 

Road System 4 FY16

L-761, Replace RFAR (Phase II) An independent assessment of the Hanford Site Radio Fire Alert Reporting (RFAR) system was conducted in the summer of 2011 that identified several inconsistencies 

and deficiencies in the current notification system. To correct those issues will involve replacing the majority of the hardware and software to gain compliance with 

federal code. 

Phase II of the project will replace the RFAR communications equipment at each facility that communicates with the facility's fire alarm control panel.

The project includes the design, procurement, and upgrade of the existing obsolete Hanford Local Area Network (HLAN) network devices with equipment and technology 

that is IPv6 capable. This project, combined with the first phase (ET50), consists of upgrading and consolidating approximately 600 network devices with approximately 

400 new network devices. The devices being replaced are no longer under warrantee or supported by the vendor. The unsupported infrastructure creates a risk of cyber 

threat with no future patches or upgrades provided by the vendor. The equipment is also not IPv6 capable, which is required per OMB memo M-05-22. Advanced 

network services being considered for the site cannot be implemented with the existing technology. The network devices are various models of network switches from 

Cisco Systems, Inc. The devices provide network, application, and data access for users, servers, and network services transported via the HLAN such as Internet, Intranet, 

email, IDMS, TIS, PopFon, AJHA, HEIS, Docs Online, etc., for the Hanford Site including the Tank Operations Contract (TOC), Plateau Remediation Contract (PRC) and 

Mission Support Contract (MSC) scope. Replacement of the existing equipment will provide higher levels of security, functionality, and performance. The project would 

be broken up into two phases, each phase taking one year and upgrading roughly half of the existing network. Phase I would primarily upgrade facilities such as the 

Federal Building, Steven Center Offices, 2750, etc. Phase II would upgrade the remaining facilities such as the mobile offices and on site office buildings (MO281, MO404, 

242A, 222S, etc.). The actual facilities targeted for each phase will be determined during the design phase to ensure a proper balance of risk and business impacts 

associated with the implementation.

L-797, Key Facilities HVAC 

replacements

There are a number of MSA facilities where heating and ventilation systems are beyond the system’s designed life. These systems are highly prone to failure and require 

significant maintenance attention to keep operational. Moreover, there is very limited availability of critical spare parts from the manufacturer. In many cases, spare 

parts are not available at all from either the manufacturer or third party vendors. Consequently, cost to repair these HVAC units are extremely expensive, and in some 

cases far exceed the unit’s value. The effort to keep these systems alive costs the company significant time and resources. (This project is multiple expense projects rolled 

up into one line item)

propane gas for facility heating purposes; propane gas will continue to be used for fire training props since natural gas does not provide a visible flame for training 

purposes. Although propane is also used for heating purposes in the Al Alm building, this project does not include pipeline routing and conversion at this time due to the 

difficulties and added expense of routing the natural gas pipeline through (or around) the HAMMER training props. However, this project would provide an opportunity

Decisions Needed / Not Yet Funded - This category includes proposals that have been screened 

and discussed by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Richland Operations Office (RL), but 

are not fully validated and/or not completely vetted for mission support alignment by all subject 

matter experts. These proposals may or may not have scope, schedule, estimates and budget. 

There have been no decisions made for funding authorization of the proposal. Once a decision 

has been made, the proposal is either transferred to the Partial Decision Made / Not Yet Funded 

category or dropped from further consideration. 

Partial Decision Made / Not Yet Funded – This category includes proposals that have been 

validated and vetted for mission support need. The proposals meet Other Hanford Contractor 

(OHC) needs and are pending development of full scope, schedule, estimates and budget. The 

proposals do not have a funding authorization decision. Once a final decision is made, the 

proposal is either transferred to the Infrastructure Reliability Project Prioritization List

(Appendix B) or are dropped from further consideration. 

Not Yet Reviewed - This category includes emerging proposals that may not have been fully 

presented to RL and/or DOE, Office of River Protection (ORP). These proposals, based on gaps 

listed in the Gap Summary Table (Appendix D), may be suggestions, costs savings proposals, or 

emerging issues that have not been validated for mission support need by all subject matter 

experts. DOE has not made a decision about the proposal, which is necessary to develop a scope, 

schedule, cost estimate or budget. The funding source may or may not be known. These 

proposals are either transferred to the Decisions Needed / Not Yet Funded category or are

for redundancy and physical 

separation of independent 

sources feeding the WTP.

The A6 substation 

that supplies the 

WTP, including its 

Safety Class 1E 

electrical busses, 

has two redundant 

63MVA 

transformers and 

switchgear that are 

not physically 

separated to meet 

criteria for 

independence and 

they share common 

support systems.

The offsite source of 

power to WTP Class 

1E electrical system 

needs to be available 

through two 

independent and 

fully redundant 

sources such that a 

failure in one source 

will not affect the 

ability of the 

redundant source to 

continue to provide 

power.

An integrated project team needs to be established to 

evaluate options to address the needed capability. 

These options should also incorporate the evaluation 

completed by WRPS in 2010 to meet the long-term 

electrical capacity needs of the WTP. Without this 

decision, a project execution plan cannot be 

developed to meet the IEEE Standard which will 

threaten WTP’s readiness for plant operations.

Hanford Reuse Option: Ship sodium to an onsite 

facility for processing into a caustic (sodium 

hydroxide), treated caustic would be transferred to the 

200E Area for product reuse by WTP. This option for 

minimizes the risks associated with offsite transport.

Idaho Reuse Option: Store sodium onsite then ship 

offsite to Idaho National Laboratory’s Materials and 

Fuels Complex for processing. Following offsite 

processing, the caustic would be returned to Hanford 

Site for use in the WTP. This option minimizes 

impacts to 400 Area closure timing.

staff), office location and identification of utility 

needs. Review existing buildings in 200E Area can

Study the concept of full 

annexation of the entire 300 

Area to the City of Richland, to 

address several existing 

transition conditions. 

Part of the DOE-Pacific 

Northwest Site Office (PNSO) 

funded PNNL operations on the 

PNNL Site are located within 

City limits. 

Parts of DOE-PNSO and PNNL 

operations on the PNNL Site 

are outside City limits but 

within Benton County (inside 

Richland Urban Growth 

Boundary [UGB]). 

City now provides electrical 

services, yet MSA and PNNL 

maintain roads and parking. 

Decisions Made: Electrical 

service is transferring from the 

RL-owned electrical system to 

City owned electrical service 

under a signed agreement 

during FY2013/14. PNNL and 

MSA maintain roads and 

parking. City, County and MSA 

provide security and law 

enforcement services with 

support from PNNL. Fire 

protection, biocontrols, 

environmental monitoring and 

other designated services are 

currently provided by MSA. All 

other City services and any 

jurisdictional overlap topics 

typically are part of a full 

annexation study.

300 Area is outside 

the City of Richland

but entirely within

the City of Richland 

UGB in 

unincorporated 

Benton County, and 

served by several 

providers.

Future changes 

could help to clarify 

300 Area 

jurisdictional limits 

during the transition 

years and the 

relationship to the 

PNNL site to the 

south. 

The risk if not decided is to continued costs of land, 

roads and utilities system management costs within

RL annual budgets. There is a current risk to RL, 

PNSO and City for maintenance, enforcement or 

public safety response failures. A general lack of 

clarity results from a patchwork of jurisdictional 

authority limits in the central and southern portions of 

the 300 Area, generally south of Cypress Street. A full

annexation study might help analyze for the benefit of 

all parties how to best control overall risk during 

transition years, how RL can reduce land footprint 

after 300 Area cleanup completion and how to best 

maintain long-term cost efficiency for infrastructure 

services among all affected existing providers (City, 

County, PNNL, MSA, others) during transition years

Appendix F – Cost Savings / Cost Avoidance Proposals

Cost savings and cost avoidance proposals are provided as one list in Table F-1 for quick 

reference of proposals for ISAP systems described in Chapter 3.0. More detail is typically 

provided within ISAP annual reports about a new proposal in the first year each proposal is 

introduced. A database is maintained by MSA Portfolio Management (PfM) staff for tracking 

proposals through each of the nine status phases, as follows:

1. Concept review (currently the largest number of proposals is in this category at approximately 128 

proposals) 

2. Initial review

3. Selection

4. Technical review

5. Input review (for comments) 

6. Review decision

7. Implementation decision (the second largest number of proposals is in this category currently at 

approximately 103 proposals) 

8. Implement

9. Archive.

The process of a adding a new proposal to Table F-1 follows several steps. First, new cost 

savings/avoidance proposals generated during the ISAP process are included in the table. 

Eventually, proposal line items will migrate onto the PfM database after full documentation 

of each proposal is developed. A few selected cost savings that require a major decision 

(due to size of the scope, site-wide impact or amount of funding needed) are provided in 

Appendix E, Decisions Needed Summary. The proposals listed in Table F-1 serves to 

generally expand the overall RL list of costs savings/avoidance summarized in the Lifecycle 

Annual Report after each new proposal is reviewed and validated. To maintain and revise 

Table F-1 in future years, proposals will either be revalidated to remain on the list or

rejected for any further consideration and removed. Periodic reviews are held throughout 

the year and the entire list is updated during the ISAP annual planning cycle. 

Proposals that are fully implemented can be removed from Table F-1 after they are 

transferred to the Infrastructure Reliability Project Priority List (Appendix B) as a project, 

the annual budget as a new line item, or are captured as another action, such as an 

operational budget item, procurement, or new policy.

As described in RL proposal #1009, 

explore a composting/planting soil 

processing yard operation to produce 

an onsite re-vegetation soil mix and/or 

a compost mix from primarily 

tumbleweed collection in quantities the

Site will demand for annual projects.

methods already well researched and 

locally used by City of Richland Public 

Works. Combine composting collected 

tumbleweeds, sand from site plus 

200W sanitary sewer treatment plant 

biosolids and/or water treatment plant 

residuals. The goal is to produce a 

blended, screened, tested, stabilized 

planting soil mix with the right physical 

properties (sand, loam, and organic 

mix) for planting soil. Self-operate or 

possibly hire a contractor.

Annual Target Volume: 10,000 CY of
