Content:
ility on the plant site and establish both a physical security program (fence, locked and alarmed gates and doors, and periodic security patrols) and include a restricted area for radiation protection purposes, consistent with 10 CFR Part 20 requirements and ALARA guidance of RGs 8.8 and 8.10. The facility should not be in a location that requires transportation of wastes over public roads unless no other feasible alternatives exist. Licensees must conduct any transportation over public roads in accordance with the NRC and DOT regulations (10 CFR Part 71 and 49 CFR Parts 171-180). 4. Licensees should implement operational safety features to prevent the accidental dropping of containers from cranes and forklifts or the puncturing of containers from forklifts during the movement and transportation of radioactive waste containers. Personnel should receive training in the proper operation of such equipment and instruction on the use of methods to securely hold containers on such equipment (e.g., tie-downs, gates, cages). The corresponding safety program should be based on the results of a failure analysis, given the type of equipment and operations planned to be conducted. 11.4-50 Draft Revision 4 –August 2014 5. The facility should include design features, in accordance with 10 CFR 20.1406 and guidance of RG 4.21, that would minimize, to the extent practicable, contamination of the waste facility and environment; facilitate eventual decommissioning; and minimize, to the extent practicable, the generation of extraneous radioactive waste. This requirement applies to storage facilities used to process and store liquid, wet, dry solid, and stabilized wastes, and large components (e.g., steam generators, activated components, etc.) and bulk wastes (e.g., spent charcoals removed from gas delay tanks or beds). 6. Radioactive materials should be processed, handled, and stored using equipment, methods, and procedures that avoid or minimize potential releases of radioactivity
