Change Title 

Deletion of Tri-Party Agreement (TPA) Milestone M-036-01 H, 2018 Hanford Lifecycle Scope, Schedule and 

Cost Report · 

Description/Justification of Change 

This Change Control Form deletes TPA milestone M:-036-01 H for submittal of the 2018 Lifecycle Scope, 

Schedule and Cost Report (Ufecycle Report). 

Each year, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) prepares and submits to the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) and theWashi'ngton State Department of Ecology (Ecology) the Lifecycle Report, 

as required by Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order (HFFACO) Appendix D, M-036-01 

milestone(s). 

The·analysis of scenarios in the River Protection Project System ·Plan Revision 8, which is due by 

10/31/2017 (TPA milestone M-062-40F), will provide information useful for revising the description of DOE 

Office of River Protection (ORP) work in the Lifecycle Report. There is not enough time to prepare the 

Lifecycle Report between 10/31/2017 and the 1/31/2018 due date for M-036-01H. In ·addition, ORP will be 

developing an updated baseline for the next Lifecycle Report by 6/1/2018. The update will also provide input 

to DOE Richland 'Operations Office project's Lifecycle Report due on 1/31/2019. 

The Parties agree this is good cause to delete the M-036-01 H milestone; thereby forgoing submittal of the 

Lifecycle Report in 2018 and to focus resources on meeting TPA milestone M-036-011 for submittal of the 

2019 Hanford Lifecycle Report. 

Impact of Change 

With the approval of this Change Control Form, milestone M-036-01 H will be deleted. No other HFFACO 

milestones are impacted. 

Affected Documents 

The HFFACO, as amended, and Hanford Site internal planning management, and budget documents (e.g., 

USDOE and USDOE contractor Baseline Change Control documents, Project Management Plans).

M-036-011 The USDOE shall prepare and submit to EPA and Ecology a 

Lead Reg.ulatory report setting out the Lifecycle Scope, Schedule and Cost for 

Agency: Dual completion of the Hanford. Site Cleanup Mission. The report 

shall reflect all of those actions necessary for the USDOE to 

fully meet all applicable Environmental obligations including 

those under the HFFACO, the Consent Decree in Washington 

v. DOE, Case No. 08-5085-FVS, and the Hanford 

RCRA/HWMA Permit. The report shall include scope, 

schedule. and cost for completing work at each of the operable 

units and RCRA TSO groups/units that are listed in 

01/31/2019 
Change Form M-36-17-01 

Page 4 of 5 

Appendixes B and C of the HFFACO, in the Consent Decree 

in Washington v. DOE, Case TPA No. 08-5085-FVS, and in 

. the Hanford RCRA/HWMA Permit, including the Hanford 

Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant. The report will 

include all other cleanup and monitori.ng activities (including 

post-closure activities) and all related actions necessary to 

complete the cleanup mission to provide a complete 

understanding of the resources necessary for the Hanford 

cleanup mission. 

This report shall take into account circumstances existing as 

of the end of the fiscal year preceding the month of the report, 

including funds appropriated by Congress for the Hanford 

cleanup, but shall not assume any limitation on funding for 

future years. However, the report wHI take into consideration 

critical resource availability not based upon assumed future 

funding limitations and the practical limits .of project 

acceleration when developing an executable plan. USDOE 

may also in.elude costs other than those directly related to 

environmental obligations (such as security costs) but shall 

clearly distinguish expenditures for environmental obligations 

from other expenditures. Costs shall be displayed by program 

baseline summary. Additional levels of detair will appear in 

appendixes to the report. Cost information will provide 

sufficient detail to validate consistency with the scope and 

schedule for individual cleanup projects. Reporting in· the 

appendixes will typically be one level below the PBS for the 

lifecycle, and at levels below that for the next two to five years 

beyond the execution year (usually at the activity level within 

the budget assigned to a specific project, e.g., Rl~0011, WBS 

Element 011.04.01, nuclear material stabilization and 

disposition - PFP, disposition PFP, transition 234-5Z). EPA 

and Ecology project managers may request additional levels 

of detail be provided by their DOE counterparts. 

In circumstances where final cleanup decisions have not yet 

been made, the report shall be based upon the reasonable 

upper bound of the range of plausible alternatives or may set 

forth a range of alternative costs including such a reas~nable 

upper bound. In making assumptions for the purpose of 

preparing the initial report, USDOE shall take into account the 

views of EPA and Ecology and shall also take into account the 

values expressed by the affected Tribal governments and 

Hanford stakeholders regarding 

workscope, priorities and schedule. The report shall include 

the scope, schedule and costs for each such PBS .level two 

element and shall set forth the bases and assumptions. for 

each cleanup activity. 

After USDOE submits the report, the USDOE will revise the 

report based upon EPA and Ecology comments to reflect a 
Change Form M-36-17-01 

Page 5 of 5 

common vision of the scope, schedule and budget .for the 

remainder of the cleanup mission. If the agencies are unable 

to reach resolution on specific aspects of the scope of cleanup 

actions, the revised document will present a range of potential 

actions with the associated schedule and budget, thereby 

completing the milestone. DOE, EPA and Ecology shall 

attempt to reach agreement on the report so it can serve as 

an agreed upon foundation for preparing budget requests and 

for informational briefings of affected Tribal governments and 

Hanford stakeholders. The report shall also serve as the basis 

for annual discussions among USDOE, EPA and Ecology on 

how and when the USDOE will complete.cleanup, how 

Congressional appropriations for the Hanford site for that year 

may affect assumptions presented in the report, and how 

milestone changes and adjustments will affect lifecycle scope, 

schedule and cost. 

Without limiting any DOE obligation under any other 

provisions of this agreement, and without limiting any DOE 

obligation to disclose information that is :otherwise publicly 

available, nothing in this milestone shall be construed, e'ither 

alone or in combination with any other provision of the 

HFFACO, to require disclosures related to internal federal 

budget deliberations.
